I have been here many times over many years and never thought the food was any better than OK. And I am not picky at all but this is the last place in crystal lake I go for breakfast. They always over cook the bacon until its hard as a rock and you can shatter it against your plate. Much better breakfast at Mamma Rinis just down rte 14.

They have the best cheese omelets ever! We go there as often as we can. Much more reasonable than IHOP!!

I dont know if I've been to a worst restaurant out there. I had a very bad experience. The service was bad and the food wasnt as great as everyone says it it!

The quality is very poor. The wait staff looked like truck driver types. The manager looked like they had not slept for a while. The coffee was nothing special. If you only like cheap stuff for cheap, then have at it!
