The facility is clean, outside entrance could use some TLC, food is great, everyone was super friendly and helpful with one exception. I HATE writing reviews and pinpointing one individual, BUT our waitress Danielle was rude and not a friendly person. In taking our order she acted as though were were a pain, and was not interested in assisting us. We could see our order was ready, but she was on her phone and we had to literally go ask her to bring our food. Once it arrived it was Luke warm at best, and when we complained she acted like it was our problem not hers. My entire family felt the same way, that she just didn't care and it was apparent she had other more important things on her mind (like her phone), and we were someone she just had to DEAL WITH!!! My daughter said she recognized her from McDonalds, and that she had to work with her. She remembered Danielle had a real poor attitude when she worked there as well, and believed they fired her (not 100% sure of this, but she didn't last long). Anyway, we hope things can improve with Danielle, otherwise she may have to move on in life and learn a really hard lesson concerning herself and her poor attitude. Sorry Danielle, but this is the truth and we hope you can learn from your mistakes.

Delicious brunch! We were greeted warmly and served by Eric, the very friendly manager. We ordered the Huevos Rancheros and Biscuits and Gravy. They are known for their green chili. Everything was tasty! Highly recommend trying this restaurant!

I was looking so forward to getting a green chili sauce on the Huevos Rancheros and was pretty disappointed. An egg was cooked between two tortillas, smothered in "green chili sauce", which was brown and tasted like gravy. It was so terrible, I could not eat it. I paid full price for the item, and will NOT go back there again. Would rather drive across town to get something good. So, I got two tortillas, no, 3, with an egg cooked between 2, smothered in gravy, hash browns that were warmed up, basically. The pancakes smelled heavenly, though! Probably Bisquick. I did not give the waiter a tip, as he tried to fill me with pucky about the gravy.

This place is called "ice cream shop" based off the sign anyway. It's great stuff. Agua frescas and Mexican deserts and fair food (like food you get at a fair). Great staff

We tired Omlets etc. because it was close. From the outside it looks very uninviting. Once inside we were surprised. They have a full breakfast and lunch menu. Business is good and our service was excellent. Their breakfast entrees are delightful and will not break the bank. Do not overlook this one!

We walked in, thinking we would get omelets (It *is* part of the name, after all), and instead ordered their breakfast burrito and Mexican scramble! We are so glad we did, they were absolutely delicious. This is a serious breakfast place - they got the coffee out fast and kept our mugs full. Nothing flashy about the space - just tables, chairs, and walls. The food was delicious, wait staff was friendly and competent, and the bathrooms were clean. It's not far from the airport, so it's a great place for breakfast when you have an early morning airport dropoff.

Our breakfast club has eaten here on numerous occasions. Have always found the food and service to be excellent. Highly recommend it for an above average eating experience.

My mom and I went to have breakfast. Place was super busy. The person with the wait list kept walking around so was hard to get your name down. Once seated, it was unclear who would serve us. Finally someone came by and took our order. My mom had a western omelette which arrived cold and had to be sent back. I had a ground beef omelette which went to the wrong table so I had to wait for it to be remade. No silverware was provided. When we asked and got some, the napkins were wet and stained. I noticed when looking in the kitchen area that they were stacking plates off food and it was not moving out fast. Looked in the dishwash area and plates were on the floor. We asked to talk to the manager, but one never came. Not sure if I will be willing to try this again

We tried this place a few weeks ago and now it is our favorite!! Their omelettes are off the charts delicious, generous portions, excellent service. I had the Chicken Fajita Omelette twice, and the Steak Omelette, and they were SO delicious and only $8.99 each!! I always have to take home half, so I get to enjoy it again. The coffee is super, and you get a choice of flavored creamers or regular. We have nothing but nice things to say about the food and the staff!!! Price for a meal is VERY reasonable. I can't wait to try their lunch menu!! They have a senior (55+) menu too. Great place to visit with kids - they have a cute kids menu with a smiley face pancake. This place is in the King Soopers/ARC, Ace Hardware shopping center on Academy and Hancock.

Stopped in for breakfast with my favorite sister and so happy I did. This is now my "goto" breakfast restaurant by my house. I can't believe how many times I have passed by but not seen it. Our service was fast and friendly. The prices are excellent and the food was so good! We both had different omelets and were very happy. The coffee was good too. Will be back.

I came here a few times and the food most of the time was good . I would recommend going to there 8th st location for good food and service. This visit I sat at the counter where all the staff past and come too. I waited 15 minutes and as the staff walked past me and went to the cashier and asked was anyone going to help me . She walked back and asked a server who has the counter she I don’t know you if you want it . Keep in mind others are at the counter eating. So she walked me back to the hostess station to take me order . Then the order came out wrong . So they threw my eggs in the microwave to fix it lol . Keep in mind this appears to be the manager based on the way she was yelling at her staff. This person appeared upset that I asked for my food correctly. Do yourself a favor and go to the 8th st location or better yet Doug’s .
