Ordered an egg and cheese and a sausage egg and cheese. On this day it was a one man operation but the wait is worth it as it is clear each order is made with care. My egg sandwich were delicious and beautiful. Two eggs each cooked perfectly. Each ingredient stack with engineered perfection. The bread!! The bread makes a difference! Was soft and crispy, a perfect bread to egg ratio. Hot, fresh and delicious. I want to try the sub sandwiches next and the soups. So good!

We decided to dine in and ended up having a wonderful conversation. I enjoyed it so much that I later found them on DoorDash and ordered the Reuben and French fries. This place is fantastic, with delicious food and excellent service! I wish I could give it more than five stars!
