“ The first time we visited (a few years ago) was on a Mother's day, just my husband and I without our kids as we already had plans for dinner in the evening with our whole family. The restaurant was bustling, friendly, and we enjoyed our food with no issues. Towards the end of our meal, someone was going around, handing out carnation flowers to women who had their children with them, greeting them a happy Mother's day. They passed my husband and I (obviously because my 3 kids were not with us) and went to the table beside ours to continue handing out Mother's day greetings and flowers. A little part of me internalized this and started a discussion with my husband. I said, what if someone just recently had a miscarriage, or was trying for a baby with no luck or was a fur baby mom? They don't get a flower? He understood my sentiment. As we went to pay for our food and leave, I brought it up to the staff behind the counter. They apologized and tried to hand me a flower. I said it's ok, I don't want a flower, but just be considerate. If you're handing flowers out, maybe hand one out to all the women in the restaurant, so not to let anyone feel left out or slighted. Well today we returned to give the place another chance and we are happy we did. Maria, the main floor manager (who I can only assume is the manager - if she isn't, she should be) was attentive to everyone around us, including my husband, son and I. She was friendly, knew customers by name and their usual orders, made sure we had everything we needed; just such a seasoned customer service expert without being invasive. So considerate, kind and thoughtful. As we were wrapping up our bill, she asked if I wanted a coffee to go, and this was the proverbial cherry on top. There is absolutely no way she would have known that I usually take a coffee to go after my meal. I was actually regretting missing my window to request one, when as if she read my mind she so happened to ask. My husband and I were blown away. So because of Maria, we will absolutely return. The food was good too. ”
“ Enjoyed having breakfast. We ordered 3 eggs over medium with halal beef sausages which were genuinely sausages. Also ordered the chicken waffle sandwich and fries. Everything was amazing. ”

“ Great breakfast place in the neighbourhood! We’ve been here a couple of times and we love the food! The staff is super nice and always helpful with their suggestions! ”
“ I want to say thank and remark the excellent service of "Maria" one of the best places her service is outstanding "Kudos" for her. Thank you ”
“ Very decent breakfast spot. Mostly order the big breakfast. Love that you get toast along with a waffle or pancakes. All those carbs will leave you full. Friendly service makes this location a regular stop on a weekend morning. ”
“ We tried the Eggs Benedict, which was well presented and had excellent taste and a good portion size. The big breakfast was everything you could want for brunch, and our teenager had the chicken waffle sandwich, which she loved! The service was perfect, with really friendly waiters. We would have loved a booth, but they were reserved for groups of 6, and the chairs could be more comfortable. The parking is tight, so watch out. ”
