We've only eaten here once after checking out of a nearby Sheraton on a Sunday morning... All the other reataurants in the neighborhood were either closed, or had long queues of people waiting to be seated... Then we found this cute little place with their 'open' sign on, and only 2 cars parked outside... The interior decor boasts very interesting 1950's memorabilia... The service was very friendly and attentive... The menu is straight-forward and reasoanbly priced... My husband was not very hungry, and only ordered a 'short stack' & coffee... I ordered the 'All American' breakfast... The bscon was thick cut, and cooked perfectly (nice and crispy)... The home fries were very thinly sliced with sauteed onions... The biscuits were home-made, and hot from the oven (I like them without gravy)... I requested and received a side order of very fresh jalapenos to put on my poached eggs... and... My cheerful server gave me plenty of juicy large lemon wedges with my hot tea... We will definitely be going back the next time we're in town...

Award Nomination: Best Service
