Kurt WeisenbergerOctober 4, 2010Great coffee & service. Counter seating is good if you're solo but if you get here before 7:30 am weekdays table seating not a problem. Great eggs Benedict!
Nathan RhoadsDecember 24, 2012Skip the way overrated corned beef hash and stick to the amazing pancakes. Fruit bowls are kinda awesome, too.
Sad to say, Flavours have gone downhill. Hash browns, no longer crispy, corned beef hash, dry. Syrup is now a "Costco knock-off" of maple syrup. You have to ask and they bring a small 1.5 oz bottle.
Anna FahlmanAugust 31, 2014It was good breakfast and ok prices but the total waiting time from the line until food on the table was 1 hr - try Diner around the corner instead!
- Al's special lets you enjoy their famous silver dollar pancakes, packed with their famous corn beef hash. Give in.
JerryAugust 18, 2012Got seated right away and had a good breakfast. Lots of good pancake and omelette choices.
Vidhya GholkarMay 9, 2011Nice breakfast spot. Sat at the counter to eat my umpteen mini pancakes: very filling. Wish you luck with the free slot machine token :)
Lauren KleinFebruary 13, 2011Best swedish pancakes I've had in quite sometime! The smoothies are delicious and the atmosphere is just absolutely lovely
Abby CJuly 1, 2015Known for the Swedish pancakes but the Denver omelette was great. No cell reception in the restaurant. Not the best for the price.
Patience LeBlancAugust 11, 2013For all you Hawaiian fans, they have passion orange guava (pog) juice.
Pei En The Stupid Fish September 7, 2012The hash brown is awesome! Can never get it from any other places!!
Wild Chef Mario AlfaroNovember 12, 2011Best place for breakfAst when u r in the city. It's worthy the long wait in line
Simon FranklinDecember 9, 2018Meh, the staff was friendly enough and the food served the purpose. Bacon game was appalling though, the slightest touch and it would turn to dust like Thanos clicking his fingers.
Hans HauptDecember 24, 2010Keen for breakfast but not keen to queue for it? No worries. Breakfast is served until 3pm each day. So sleep in late & avoid the morning rush :-)
Kevin MullettJanuary 15, 2016If you come in the afternoon then be prepared to not be served. I waited 10 minutes before walking out!
Yvette MyersSeptember 22, 2010EVERYTHING is great!!! French toast, pancakes and omelets!!! Best breakfast choices and food!!
Ashley RoseOctober 9, 2016Packed with tourists- nothing stood out. Standard breakfast fare: eggs, benedicts, pancakes.
