   For the exception of the unfriendly hostess who appeared to not want to be there, our experience was good. Waiter was great and food was good.

   They were closing the facility so I don’t know if that’s why our experience was bad. My husband had egg shells in his food twice, mine had no flavor, it just wasn’t an overall good experience like it normally is.

   Enjoyed our friendship Christmas celebration. It was crowded, but our server Andy was great. Disappointed that the restaurant will be permanently closing. 😔

   We always eat at this restaurant to be honest half of the time the service is good and half is bad. But today the hostess was so rude. Yes, I made a reservation last minute and booked a bar table, everything else was unavailable except outdoor. From the time my husband and I arrived, the hostess was so rude. Omg even though I had a reservation she told me she didn’t have a table for us. She said is either outside or you can wait around 40 minutes. We decided to take the outside table which btw was so cold and loud with all the cars and people walking by your side. After 10 minutes we got very disturbed once we realized that she was sending all the Hispanics outside. I never knew this restaurant was racist. Wow! We went back and talk to another hostess not the blonde with short hair from first time. This other hostess was much nicer and when I told her we were freezing outside and that I had a reservation at the bar she immediately gave us a table at the bar. The server was so nice. She actually made up for all the inconveniences we had. The food today was dry (French toast logs ) the bacon and blueberries almost inexistent . It was a very unpleasant breakfast today only for the server. She was lovely attentive and very helpful!

   Everyone in my family has been and raves about it. I went this morning and ordered the House Smoked Beef Brisket Hash. Not sure what constitutes 'smoked' but the brisket was less than ordinary. Albeit tender it had zero flavor. While I'm sure it wasn't, l'd of sworn it was boiled, but perhaps they keep it in some flavorless liquid because it sure wasn't flavorful in the least. The grilled bread had marks but otherwise no grill flavor and it was like I pulled a slice off the counter. Very ordinary. My daughter has been before and loves it and had the Silver Dollar Pancakes and said they were nothing special. Service was great but based on food I'd have no reason to return. I will however based on everyone's feedback but without that and based on the food today, nope. But next time I'm trying some of the decadent looking items as that seems to be what most rave about. Oh, bacon was good. :-) Order

    Love the menu. Love the food. The place is super noisy so hard to hear / carry on a conversation. Our server was very nice but hardly checked on us - we had to track her down when one person in our party didn't get their food then again when we had been ready for a while for the check. Sadly it looks like this location is closing later this month

    The breakfast was not exceptional and was highly overpriced. Simple scrambled eggs with potatoes and a slice of toast should not cost $15.95, plus $4.95 for coffee.

    First impression was awful. Arrived early so proceeded to use restroom. As I was Walking towards restroom I could see into the kitchen and observed two employees goofing around grabbing on each other’s bodies. When I entered the restroom I immediately noticed how dirty and unkept it was. The toilet seat in the handicap stall was so loose I almost fell off the toilet. I came out and was taken to our table and immediately noticed food crumbs all over the benches of our booth. The hostess didn’t make us feel very welcome and it was at that point I decided to get up and leave. I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a long time and because the prices are very high and I was already disappointed I did not want to be upset over the possibility of receiving lousy food. I was probably more uncomfortable with knowing that the two goofing off in the kitchen we’re gonna be the ones making my food as well. I just don’t get it and I question management.

    I ordered the salmon and it came to me raw. Not undercooked but raw. They apologized and brought it out again. It was again raw. The server expressed frustration that they were messing up the order but by the time I got edible food, everyone else was done with their meals.

    The hostess argued with me about my reservation where she said it was for inside. Started to argue with me! There was no special selection through Open Table for inside or out. I asked for outside when I arrived. Food served cold; average taste. Too crowded.

    Unfortunately it was not what I had hoped for despite the fabulous menu I had been wanting to experience. SERIOUS issues with little gnats and flies. Swarming, landing in your food. What a shame. They put some fans in to try and deal with it but they have a real problem to solve there. Hello San Diego Vector Control? Health Dept? Did see they have a few health violations in their Yelp write up. To make things worse, a member of the waitstaff said the insect infestation was because the city had been doing some work on a sewage project across the way, which dislodged them. Won’t go back to this one. Staff seemed slightly annoyed that customers were annoyed. Everyone was shooing their food. Maybe will try one of their other locations. Too many other options at UTC where you don’t have gnats & flies landing in your food. I’m not picky or one to complain but this was just wrong and needs attention. Lots of unattended tables that needed clearing, which added to the insect attraction. I know, real bummer. And no, the meal was not free.We couldn’t eat the humus b cause the gnats landed in it, so they didn’t charge us for that. Too bad.

    We had reservation and it took 15 minutes to be seated even when tables were available. Our server only came to our table 2-3 times, never checked if we needed something else after they brought the food. Love this place overall but i think they need to work in their customer service.
