OK, what do you want? Prompt service...you got it. Great presentation...there it is. Lots of food...burp. Reasonable prices...plenty left over for the outlet stores nearby. Variety...all you can think off...and then some. Location...on Cannery Row, near the Aquarium. The only...only...drawbacks are the long waiting lines over the weekends. So go during the work week, when the working stiffs are doing their thing. The omelets are done to a T, with a large variety to choose from. Freshly squeezed OJ hits the mark. The Eggs Benedicts come in a variety of kinds, but I like the traditional the best. The pancakes are tasty and done just right (i.e., not soggy). I could make a meal out of the home fries. And it's surprising how many times the waitress came to check on us given the overflowing crowds during the weekends. This place is the creme de la creme of breakfast places...anywhere.
Pros: Taste, variety, amount of food; service and price
Cons: Long waiting lines over the weekends; OK during the work week

My friends and I visited this place to get a hearty breakfast. And, that is what we got. I ordered the blueberry pancakes. They are served in huge proportions. The stack is fluffy, with the right amount of wheat germ that adds just a hint of crispiness. The blueberries tasted fresh. The only drawback of this place is the long wait, but it is worth it.
Pros: blueberry pancakes, service
Cons: long wait
