Everything was served cold. Biscuits were tough, as were the cold tortillas. Over easy eggs had lacy white and nothing is seasoned. Very clean.

My recent breakfast was as bad as the last time I tried it (1 year ago). I gave it another chance because I believe in supporting local businesses. Eggs were awful, the bacon was sliced down to get 3 pieces out of 1 strip and the potatoes were overcooked. When I complained to my waitress, she did offer to redo the order (I don't trust sending food back in fear of the cooks retaliation) but then said she would take 50% of the bill (she didn't). And it's not that she was busy, because I was her only customer. Never again!!!

Found this place after waiting forever at a nearby bar. Very good food and service for reasonable prices. The Chicken Delgado is especially good. Not a huge fan of TVs covering the walls, but that seems to be ubiquitous everywhere in 2024.

Wow! Came here because of our son's recommendation. What an amazing place! The vibe feels like an old school diner. Breakfast is served all day, and the menu is quite large. Highly recommend the Three Amigos appetizer (guacamole, salsa & queso with chips) & chicken fried steak / eggs. For dessert, they have a variety of pies, and the ones we had were outstanding as well.As you can see from the pics, the food looked great. Everything tasted so fresh & was full of flavor. If you're around the San Marcos area, do yourself a flavor and visit this place. You won't be disappointed!Parking: we parked around the corner, behind the building, and parking was free.

Very very bland and a bit overpriced for what you actually get. The owner is also really strange around female employees. I wouldn’t go here unless you’re retired and just want to drink a cup of burned black drip coffee by yourself.

If ever, there was a three star restaurant this is it. There's absolutely nothing to write home about but everything you order will be solid, tasty enough and generously portioned. Friendly service and standard diner ambiance help make this little spot on the square a completely acceptable breakfast or lunch spot - nothing exceptional - but absolutely "ok".

I went with a group of folks on Thursday, February 1st. The place had a nice crowd and buzz going. The girls took very good care of us.. They were friendly and easy to talk to. The food was very good, KJ
