In town visiting and was looking for a traditional breakfast spot. So glad we found this place. Pancakes, Bacon, Hasbrowns, Eggs, homemade jam and a FULL espresso bar! Home run, we will be back before we leave.

Recently went for breakfast. Place is big, employees friendly and efficient. I didn't realize this was the same place as in Winnemucca, NV until I read the story on their menu. We stop at the one in Winnemucca when passing through and food is the same. Really good. I got an omelet with sourdough and hash browns. Wife had French toast. I think I am ordering French toast from now on. It was fabulous. The toast is super thick, fluffy and made to perfection. Highly recommended!

Service was great and the food was delivered quickly. Had a variety of foods at our table which we shared. All was delicious. Highly recommend to others. Is a very busy place so getting seated can be a wait on busy Sundays and Saturdays but worth it.

had the gravy train potatoes and it was really good! The hashbrowns were still decently crispy under the sausage gravy and the gravy itself had great flavor Their housemade jam went perfectly with the sourdough toast i got. Jam was also a great pairing with the almond french toast which is one of our favorite dishes from here service was quick and attentive! make sure to check in at the front podium, they have a text system so they'll text you when your table is ready

Pros - Kailynn was so perfect as our server. Fun, helpful, sweet....she's a winner! Dining room is spacious and has beautiful hanging Tiffany lampshades and captivating art on the walls. Nice heft to the silverware, not the cheap bendy kind. Fresh pressed orange juice, fun to watch them toss the oranges into the hopper. House-made lemon curd on the French toast is not to be missed. It has the perfect balance between tart & sweet. . Cons - parking can be tough when they're busy, but it's worth the effort. Can also be a bit noisy at times.

Sausage alone deserves 5 stars- wow don't overlook that! Fresh oj was awesome. Crispy hash browns just perfect- ham, eggs and muffin on the Benedict were fantastic! I prefer my hollandaise a bit more lemony, but it was ok. Service and atmosphere are fun- quick attentive staff and beautiful lamps create a memorable upscale diner experience.
