    out of this world! If you’re not sure if you should wait in line or not, WAIT! It’s extremely worth it. The best I had coming 2 days in a row was whatever you select with their pork belly. Amazing!

    This is one of the best breakfast spots. Staff extremely friendly and the food is amazing. Had the three pigs, sausage dipped in pancake batter then deep fried.

    Order the green eggs and ham. The goat cheese melts and swirls with the pesto and it is a breakfast party in your mouth. Then ask for a side of jam for your biscuit and end on a sweet note!

    The Chicken French Toast and Red Velvet pancakes are delicious. If you want the Charlie Bowl, get the half bowl as the portions are huge.

    Eggs Beni were fabulous. So are the juices and the whole place has a vibrant atmosphere. Lining up was worth it!

    If you are craving a traditional breakfast and protein for your morning meal, go for the Chicken French Toast. You'll wolf it down in no time.

    Great breakfast spot. Always queuing so arrive with time to spare. Everything we had was great. The bacon is pretty special!

    If two of you want a milkshake, just get one and share it. 1) they are huge 2) they bring you more in a different cup

    Try the Fernando. Ask for it dick-shaped. They will accomodate. Super popular spot, expect to wait in line a while. Worth it.

    Yummy. But...actually no WiFi. I’ve asked 4Square to make the edit.

    There is no diet pop or any other sugar-free drink on the menu. If you have diabetes you're out of luck as far as drinks go.
