Found this place after a camping trip and was so glad we did! Very good breakfast and service. I ordered scrambled eggs, sausage patties, grits, & biscuits and gravy. Everything was delicious esp the sausage and biscuits and gravy. My husband had the eggs Benedict and said it was one of the best he’s had. Staff were very friendly and came around multiple times to top our coffees off. Only downside was it is a smaller cafe and they were slammed but we were able to make a reservation online so we had no wait. Definitely recommend

It's hard to find a great Greek restaurant with authentic food. This place has it and in abundance. Would definitely return when in the area.

The coffee is great. Large portion size. I had the ham with 3 pancakes; ham was thin sliced and not overly salty. The pancakes were the size of the plate! My wife had scrambled eggs with grits, sausage patties and rye toast; all delicious, nice flavor on the sausage. Staff kept our coffee cups full.

Went here for a to go lunch after hearing wonderful things. Let me tell you they were not wrong!! I grew up on lemon rice soup and this place hands down has brought my childhood back to me. This is the only place I have found that does this soup right! I also got the spanakopita deluxe and it was Devine! I cannot wait to keep exploring the menu and of course keep getting the lemon rice soup!!!!! Keep up the good work you are all doing awesome and are so so very kind!!!

Loved the food it was out quickly, the service was very friendly and helpful! The only thing I'd say is that the home fries didn't have much flavor but a little salt and pepper and some tobasco and I was good. The servings were large, we got the two egg breakfasts, one with grits and one with home fries, my husband said that he put some of his bacon and some butter in it and it fixed it. The biscuits and gravy were good. It came with 3 slices of bacon! Delicious! Cooked as ordered. I will be back one day when I'm here again. The only complaint I have about the atmosphere is the window with no shade. The light was constantly in my husband's face, but everything else was great. I'd say most likely they don't put a lot of salt or any butter in the food so they can serve guests who may not want that in their food. There is a large crowd of more elderly people who like to come here. So remember that when you just need to add a little butter or salt.

Very good food and service. Rochelle, our waitress was patient, happy and very attentive. Prices are fair. Selections of meals are expensive, Greek, chicken livers, seafood and American food. Have been here 3 times and will be coming back.
