Breakfast balances typical American diner fare (egg-potatoes-meat-toast platters, omelets ) with riffs like New Mexico-style breakfast burritos and buttermilk-cornmeal pancakes . Read more

Parents of little ones: there are three high chairs . They're all new and very clean , unlike some other restaurants in town . If you'd like a high chair and you're dining on the weekend, get there early

The Greek Omelet was amazing. I was able to sub the toast and house fries for tomato and Morningstar sausage . Delicious!

Try mixing Jonathan's Fiery Scramble up with the biscuits n' gravy . Good mixed-up combo, originally recommended by one of their waitresses . Oh yeah, basically go with any recommendations of waitresses

My favorite brunch in StL! Get a shortstack of the cornmeal pancakes to share and a Mexican breakfast burrito !! Sopapillas are amazing too.

Mike David

I have never had anything bad there, Greek omelette , biscuits and gravy and pancakes are all great. The Irish coffee is also tasty.

Jason Randazza

You can get a breakfast burrito smothered with sausage gravy ! My cardiologist said “Well , at least you’re happy.”

Dave P.

I can speak from first-hand experience, the buttermilk corn meal pancakes and homemade sausage are amazing! The wait staff is fantastic.

Cara Sullivan

I want to re-live that meal. Get the egg sandwich "Keke" style (it's like a BLT egg sandwich with some amazing cheese ). The best sandwich I've ever had, ever.

Voted Best Diner in RFT's Best of St. Louis 2013, try an omelet with chorizo and calabacitas, and don't forget the Longhorn cheese ! http://bit.ly/17NYzZU

If they have the ginger pancakes get them- you won't be disappointed, but honestly we've never had a bad thing off the menu

Great atmosphere, and conveniently located. But the food always leaves me a little dissatisfied.

There's a air conditioned bus out back you can wait for your table in with free coffee !

I'm pretty sure these pancakes are what Mrs. Butterworth thinks of when she's pleasuring herself. They're amazing.

The interior design is very well done, but the pork I ate didn't taste freshly cooked.

The red sauce was more of an assault on the palate not pleasant at all. Nice staff nice feel just ordered the wrong thing
