I arrived at noon on a Monday and there was a 40 min wait. It appeared busy which was surprising for a weekday. My one child ordered the child’s oatmeal. There wasn’t any fresh fruit but just a side of brown sugar and raisins. It tasted off so my daughter only had a few bites. It seemed expensive for what it was worth. I ordered egg omelet with spinach, mushrooms and avocado. It came with a side of hash browns. They were cold and the whole omelette also cold. The edges were so dried out it was crusted. So, it was clearly sitting out for a long time. The mushrooms looked like they came from a can and were soaked with oil. Not a single piece of spinach was in the omelet. To top it off there was a long black hair on the top of the eggs. I have blonde hair. I didn’t complain but probably should have. I asked for a side of salsa and it was in a small plastic cup about 2 oz and I was charged $2. My friend recommended this place but she said she hasn’t been there in a long time. Save your $, super overpriced for what the quality is. Staff seemed friendly but very rushed. Then the card reader had 28% tip already pushed. Sad that restaurant prices keep rising and the quality keeps declining.

Alfred Packer omelet rocks, a fave or mine. My friend got their chicken fried steak, and loved it. Great food and atmosphere! A must visit when in Summit County!

Everyone one was super nice but the food wasn't the best. The burger was good but the fries were like they heated them up twice. My Fiances steak was over cooked. We didn't complain because we were in a rush.
