Moving reviews over from Yelp. Originally published 4/2/19:
I had a proper cheeseburger here. Two patties, gooey cheese, nicely toasted bun. They didn’t pile a bunch of other stuff on top. There wasn’t a fancy sauce. It cost about $8 and that’s a bargain given the location.
The patties were hard-seared on a flattop to create a little bit of crunch and caramelize the edges a bit. The cheese was melted perfectly and even a bit stringy with each bite. Bacon was an option but I passed.
Fries on the side and I asked for a little bbq to use for dipping. The fries were lightly battered and fried to a crispy, golden brown but still flaky on the inside.
The irony of this meal? I had just ordered a grilled chicken cuban sandwich and the waitress had walked away a split second before someone delivered a cheeseburger to the next table. I took one look at this guy’s food, jumped up and caught my waitress before she entered my order so I could get the burger instead.

Kinda of a cool theme based around the chess game. Service was good, but had to look for our server more than once. Food presentation was really nice, french toast was approximately 2″ thickness but could have used a bit more fruit. The Mexican presentation was good and tortilla crispy. I felt it was lacking in seasonings. We would go back and try different dish again.

Stopped in for breakfast with the wife. It was seat yourself and we found a spot we liked. As I walked in I noticed the theme of chess everywhere. Aesthetic was nice and the place was clean.
Waitress was nice enough to get us our menus and a water bottle for the table. However after we ordered I felt like the lack of needing to give refills prompted a much longer delay to her coming back to the table to eventually get boxes and our check.
The food looked appealing and was plated decently. I’m no food critic, but my French toast left me longer for more. There wasn’t a lot of flavor in the toast or even the syrup. A bit bland overall. My wife’s skillet was pretty good. No complaints and the eggs were poached well (as ordered).
Overall a positive experience but was not wowed enough to justify coming back before trying out other places in the area first.

I stopped here for breakfast before court and let me just saw I was blown away. The service was prompt and friendly. The food was reasonably priced, delicious and it came out so fast – don’t get me started on the portion sizes! I only ate half of the “Damn Delicious” and wasn’t able to bring the rest with me but it was so freaking good and I still had enough for at least one more meal. 10/10 would recommend, I’ve already recommended it to all of my coworkers actually

The portions are huge, and their breakfast menu is vast! We really enjoyed the ambiance and the servers were really good too! It is right across from shaw park so that is convenient too. I would recommend checking it out.

I was a disappointed. We saw the esthetics here and had high hopes.
The staff seemed unorganized or unwilling as there was confusion over who would seat us. We then sat there quite a while before anyone came to greet us at the table and take our order.
The menu had great options that sounded flavorful with choices for any diet and taste.
The food arrived quickly (faster than it took for us to place the order).
The food was visually stunning and looked like the ingredients were very fresh. Everything lacked flavor though. I ordered a skillet and my partner ordered the veggie hash and both sounded delicious by description. They were definitely under seasoned though.
The bottomless coffee is well worth and I was offered a to-go cup so i could take some with me.
Our waitress was kind and checked in on us a few times during the meal.
Overall I don’t think I would come back here again because of the value vs the taste. The menu sounded unique and tasty but didn’t deliver.

Tried for the 1st time. The food was ok. I ordered the lumberjack, which is a waffle with sausage and bacon crumbles, cheddar with 2 eggs. I added hash browns. However, they were very thin and fried too long, which made them very hard. Not much crumbles had asked for an additional sausage patty. My husband had the meet me in st louis which is a skillet, and he added grilled jalapeños. Some were grilled, and some were not. He also ordered a pancake on the side, which he indicated was not hot. Service was slow, other than that the atmosphere we very nice and inviting. Will I return, that is up in the air right now.

Never been here before and I’m always a sucker for breakfast food- no matter what time of day. I was greeted by smiling faces and felt like a regular customer the entire time.
I opted for the omelette with a few goodies inside and thoroughly enjoyed it! The hash browns that came with the omelette were amazing, some of the best I’ve ever had (light and delicate, not crunchy or burnt). I’d gladly return again and again. 🙂

The service and atmosphere were really good. Super clean and neat. The service was top notch but never felt like a diner as the name would suggest. It is more of an upscale place with average food and shorter menu items. I ordered fried chicken sandwich and fries and my friend ordered fish and chips. Both of us felt the food was average. Only recommend it if you were looking for a casual place to dine once in a while for a chance of scenery.

We went for brunch and were seated quickly. This establishment pprovides dining at an upscale location. Our waitress delivered good service, but nothing to write home about. Our meal arrived swiftly, albeit it was not as hot as the plates it was delivered on. The meal was delicious nonetheless. The wait for Mimosas was longer than expected. I would definitely dine here again. Please keep in mind that a party of six is considered a large party, and a gratuity was included.
