“ Definitely a hidden gem! Staff were very friendly and the food was great. Highly recommend the concha french toast from their specials. Easy parking and good vibes ”
“ It's a okay place to have breakfast/brunch, I got a omelette filled with Chorizo with a side of southern potatoes and bread you have a choice of what type of potato and bread you'd like, I enjoyed my food, I will say if you choose to get the Southern style potatoes you will get FULL on just them alone. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice but it's kind of really dark in certain areas, the walls are full of photos of vintage photos of celebrities. The Service was normal. I went on a Monday and it was pretty packed but the wait wasn't too long. ”
“ Great place for breakfast. We went on a Sunday morning, so it was very busy. Kinda crowded by the entrance but not bad once you got inside. We put our names down for a party of 3 and prob took about 20 minutes to be seated. All the staff was super busy. The place looks like a favorite that's been around a long time, for good reason. The portions are huge and the food is delicious. My Doug's Omelette was way enough for this meal and the next. The hash browns were particularly good - they were super crispy, as they should be. My toast could've used more butter (I think they'd buttered it) so I asked for some. They gave me some hard butter - prob better if it was the spreadable kind in a pkg. But all was good. Enjoyable breakfast! ”
“ Just a great spot for breakfast and brunch. Food is always delicious and service is excellent. ”
“ (4 out of 5) Ever since Dell cafe closed this has been my go to spot, I always get the Hayward omelette and replace the tomato for bacon, I get the hack browns we'll fine with onion on top, order this for a nice savory breakfast and you won't be disappointed! Service is always good and it has a nice family feel when eating here! I know they have a lot of very cool looking sweet breakfasts as well, but I'm more of a savory person! When you come tell them Rothyy sent you! ”
“ My wife and I have come to Doug's place since we moved to the area and each time we had a pleasant experience. So far we've tried some their omelets, classic breakst and pancakes. The portions are big and sometimes you can share with someone else. Their specialty is o omelets so they have some great choices. I enjoy their classic breakfast and it comes with a delicious hashbrown and a lot of bacon. Service is also excellent. Fast and always friendly. Restaurant is was busy during our visit, but we were seated pretty quick since they have a lot of tables. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also pretty chill and old school. All in all, if you are craving some good breakfast at a good price and good portion and good options Doug's place is the place. ”
“ This place is always so busy! But the service is quick. Staff is very nice. The kids love the pancakes here. Love the corn beef hash here. Parking lot gets really busy as it's shared with multiple businesses. Did not love their jelly options for the toast. Grape or mixed berries. ”
