    Fantastic breakfast and generous portions. The loco moco–style plate was rich and comforting, with perfectly cooked eggs, savory gravy, and tender beef over rice. Kimchi and mac salad added great contrast, and the bacon was crisp and flavorful. Everything looked fresh and well prepared. Definitely worth a visit.

    I really wanted to have a good experience here, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case. During my visit, I found a foil twist tie in my pancakes, which was disappointing and honestly concerning from a food safety standpoint. When I brought it to the manager’s attention, I was initially told a solution would be provided by issuing a refund, but nothing was followed through on. Instead of correcting the situation, I felt misled and dismissed especially with attempting to get in contact for a follow up. Mistakes happen, but how they’re handled makes all the difference, and in this case the lack of follow-up made the experience even more frustrating. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and improves both their kitchen quality control and customer service. At this point, I can’t recommend this location based on my experience.

    My wife and I were looking to get some breakfast in Walnut Creek and found this place. We sat at the bar area, which was the best spot in the restaurant. Alex the bartender was incredibly friendly and even ended up giving us an extra mimosa on the house. Food was very good and the atmosphere was great. What an awesome way to start our day!

    I’ve heard really great things and there’s always a wait so I wanted to check it out for myself. I got the New York Benedict, and my brother got the country fried steak. The bagel was cold, not really toasted, and chewy which was not good. My brother said the steak was flavorless, even though it was actual steak. We got the mimosa flight, which are very sizable drinks for $36 for four. All the food was lukewarm to cold. Fried potatoes are just a slice of fried mushed potatoes, also not hot. The drinks are really tasty though.
