It's an order at the counter and find yourself a table type of restaurant, they then bring your order out to you. The best thing about this place, is that you can sit just feet from the road, which is why we stopped here today. The 2nd Annual Cruisin Hwy 101 vintage car show was in progress, so we sat there and ate breakfast, and watched 100's of "Classic" cars pass by, with a front row seat.

Oh yeah! the FOOD. I ordered one of the breakfast specials. "The Popeye" Spinach of course with turkey, bacon, tomatoes, bell peppers,onions and I had the swiss cheese instead of the jack cheese. My wife had the Denver. I thought the eggs and potatoes were a little on the greasy side. I like my omelette a little on the soft side, but we both thought the omelettes were a little on the overcooked side. I like a little Salsa on my omelettes, and to my surprise, Salsa on the side with out my asking for it. The potatoes looked like they had been sitting on the grill for a while, and again a little on the greasy side. O N E (1) slice of toast, on the down side. on the up side youget the butter on the side, so you can butter your toast to your taste. I just hate it when they saturate the bread with butter in the kitchen.

Coffee, again serve yourself. The awesome feature is they have about 8 or 10 different kinds of coffee in pump pots you can choose from. I only tried the one, 100% Columbian, but it was good. Yes! I'd go back there again, because they have 6 plus specials a day, and I'd like to try some other items on the menu, and ask to have my omelette cooked on the soft side to see how it comes out.

Award Nomination: Worst Service
