Really good food. The waitress and cooks very nice. We stayed in LA for 3 days, and all three of them went to get breakfast here. We loved it! Highly recommended!!! Also, very very very very good price.

The food was good and the price was better. The portions were large and very filling. The lady serving was a true pleasure. She was a whole mood and would’ve made anything better even if you were having a bad day. We’ll definitely be returning before we leave.

This was my favorite place in the neighborhood and somewhere I could truly feel at home. Whatever was stressing me outside those walls disappeared once I was inside. Food was always great and service and conversation always made my day. Sad they are gone and hope everyone is doing well.

Staff are awesome! Helpful and courteous! They serve really good breakfast food here and if you come before 10:30 am you get a whole bunch of food for just $3.50 available as different breakfast combos. Definitely a good place to grab a quick bite and coffee!

Delightful, super friendly staff. Since the moment I came in to the moment I went out they were cheerful, laughing and they gave the place a great vibe. I had the breakfast offer 2 eggs 2 pancakes, 2 crispy bacon slices, and all the coffee you can drink for 5.75$. Doesn’t get much better than that. I would totally come back.

Quick story I broke my ankle yesterday and for obvious reasons I wasn’t able to cook for my self. Early this morning I asked my husband what should we eat he said Leave it to me. I fell asleep and later I was woken up with this amazing surprise. The food was just perfect, pancakes was fluffy and soft, the eggs just soft and omg the potatoes wow and bacon perfectly done. What really warmth my heart was this note written on top of the box. Thank you so much for this . I will keep coming back

Been coming here for years and the meals have always been good. Want breakfast? This is the place. This place has the lowest prices on food anywhere around. You see a lot of elderly folks. One of those places where a lot of regulars are. It’s a nice vibe. The server is the best she’s. She is always upbeat and friendly. Very helpful when navigating thier menu options.
