Was John Alhelm at Em J's Cafe a mag?
I always enjoy EmJ's. The menu is inventive and the food comes out right.As it was, I was only in the mood for eggs, potatoes, and toast. These were well executed. Koodos for the potatoes which are redskins and perfectly seasoned. I can only hope I have a bigger appetite next View all feedback.

What Sarah Frauchiger dislikes about Em J's Cafe:
The host is terrible. He’s an older gentleman and I’ve come here twice and the first time he kicked my friend and I out because we overstayed our time. The second time, he had no prioritization of attending to guest needs and instead was straightening out his counter and filling his stapler… no sense of urgency and awareness. View all feedback.

Best breakfast area round. All I tried was delicious. My favorite is The Elvis . The staff is amazing! The cinnamon roll pancakes and a short stack of French toast with chocolate chips are formed

You have a good breakfast choice. I ate the cinnamon French toast and bacon. Bacon was crispy and delicious.

This food for the first time tried. Owner/manager was quite professional and polite. You can say that this restaurant values give its customers a good experience as employees are well trained. The food was good. The service was a little slow, but not at the point where we would not return. Only complaint was that the seat we were assigned was not very comfortable on wooden benches.

The Hangover Sandwich was delicious! Bacon, egg, cheese and home fries on a long roll. The staff and service were both excellent! (My only complaint was the smell of the restaurant; it smells like some kind of floor cleaner. Fresh baked pie or bread, maybe even scented candles would help. Hopefully this can be fixed. . Thank you! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
