Mo DysonFebruary 25, 2013Always ask for the special on the weekend. They are fab! Also, not many people can handle even 1 griddle cake by themselves so bring a friend and enjoy the deliciousness. We will be back! :)
Jeff EasonDecember 20, 2013Traveling through town and came for dinner - Food was awesome and portions were large - service was great too. Has a local feel to the place for anyone visiting and wanting something more genuine.
DanielleApril 28, 2018Really small so you’ll definitely have a wait (went on Saturday AM at 8:30a & it was already an 1.5hr wait - and they opened at 7:30a!), but it’s worth it. Food is really good and service is quick
Becky StinemetzeFebruary 19, 2014Delicious breakfast once we were served. We sat for almost 10 minutes before anyone asked what we wanted to drink. Monterey Jack omelet was really good. Should have split one. They are huge.- John KiddeSeptember 25, 2017Great breakfast spot. Sourdough French toast was delicious. The staff are friendly and even though they’ve got a small space, they put out food VERY quickly.
Jerry SmithDecember 9, 2018Breakfast was amazing, everyone is super friendly. Recommend sitting at the bar so you can watch the chef work his magic. And the breakfast was magical.
Douglas GrayNovember 13, 2017Try the comically large pancakes, one is enough for 2 people. Syrup is served in a travel mug.
- Abbi ConklinApril 26, 2018Had an omelette... it was delicious! Cute place but since it’s small and popular, expect to wait a bit for a table. It’s worth it though!
Christopher La RosaJuly 9, 2016Portion size, huge. Crab cakes were tasty. Great location and atmosphere. Will come here again to try more things on the menu- AnneSeptember 29, 2013Seriously awesome place to eat. Crab salad amazing... Clam chowder delicious... Highly recommend!
Erika DysonFebruary 25, 2013This is a cozy and low key place with tasty food and very friendly folks. The hash browns with basil and Parmesan are so good!- Camille BrenkwitzJanuary 16, 2016Great service, tasty food, awesome location, fair price. Super cute little place on the warf. I'll be back!
- Jeff SmithOctober 9, 2013The Cinnamon French Toast is perfect. Just the right amount of cinnamon and butter.
Noel Yuri-BermúdezFebruary 12, 2017One pancake could easily split with two people, probably more. There may be a wait for breakfast so be prepared.
Stacy SquirrelyPantsDecember 2, 2013The waiter wasn't exaggerating in the slightest the massiveness of the pancakes...you've been warned. Yummy!!
Tass AngiolilloJuly 29, 2013Great spot for breakfast. Friendly service and the pancakes are huge! Will be back!
Dan NavarraJanuary 28, 2013Calamari breakfast ftw. That dude who said the service was bad was right. Misheard two orders: diet Pepsi and add spinach. :( otherwise great.
Trevor YohoFebruary 23, 2014Classic greasy spoon with a good location on the warf. Stay away from the sour dough French toast it was only 3 small pieces and I left hungry going to another diner across the warf to finish the job.
Morgan C.November 17, 2013Hours aren't as posted here - on Sunday they open at 7:30am, and 9:00am on race days.
María Francisca TastetsNovember 3, 2013BEST restaurant in Monterey!!!! Just love it. And such a great service
Erin SilkDecember 3, 2014Friendly service, great location, and the biggest calamari you've ever eaten.
Vincent DeVictorFebruary 18, 2013Excellent food, the wait was no issue. Even notified us about the meter maid.

Jeremiah TiptonJuly 16, 2012Service has become very poor. My food sat for 5min before i finally asked the server if it was mine. She was to busy flirting with a guy at the bar and showing off her tattooed shoulder to the world.
Chris MillerAugust 6, 2014Not worth it. Avoid this place, terrible orange juice, bland syrup, dirty silverware, looks like they took their sugar packets from other restaurants. Weird place.. I don't get the hype.
- Jeremiah TiptonJuly 16, 2012Will not come back because of poor service. The food is good but not worth the wait.
