This was my first visit, but most certainly won't be my last. I had the burger and it was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The sautéed spinach was delicious. I'm looking forward to trying other items on the menu.

Overall, was enjoyable. The pork in the pork Benny was a little overdone and it could have used more hollandaise. The drinks were very good and the service was good. The waffle and fresh berries was light and tasty.
