The food was exceptional, earning a solid 5 out of 5 for its quality and flavor. The service was equally impressive, with attentive and friendly staff who enhanced the overall experience—another 5 out of 5! The atmosphere of the restaurant was inviting and comfortable, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. I also appreciated the ample parking available, which made getting there a breeze. With prices per person ranging from $10 to $20, it's a fantastic value for such a high-quality dining experience. Overall, I highly recommend this spot for breakfast!

However, over the past 6 to 9 months, it has really declined and hasn’t improved. I fly out of SFG monthly—while that might not be as frequent as some, it’s still significant. My go-to dish was the avocado toast, but the last three times I've ordered it, it was almost inedible. Today, I couldn’t even bring myself to eat it. The toast wasn’t even toasted, the bacon was flimsy and cold, the tomatoes were cut half an inch thick, and the egg I ordered over medium was more like a sunny-side-up, runny mess. They offered to remake it, but I’ve lost trust in pre-cooked food. So, I asked them to toss it and let it go. I didn’t even request a refund because they’ve lost my business for good.

I wouldn't recommend ordering coffee here; you might end up very disappointed. read more I wouldn't recommend ordering coffee here; you might end up very disappointed.

The first one on the left as you walk into the terminal is a disorganized mess. My toast was cold and when I asked why it was 4 dollars more than the other tailwinds across the hall, the worker said, “That’s why I advise people not to eat at the airport.” Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3

A shout out to the staff at Tailwinds: even after having to deal with annoyed passengers whose flights are delayed or canceled, they still provide great service... read more A shout out to the staff at Tailwinds: even after having to deal with annoyed passengers whose flights are delayed or canceled, they still provide great service. I've only purchased coffee from them, so I can't vouch for the food. However, they deserve kudos for being the only coffee and breakfast place opened in the very early hours, serving a ton of (mostly unhappy) customers, and totally killing it.
