I believe 3 stars is the perfect rating for this place as it is truly just average. I've been here multiple times over a few years, and although it is consistent, it is definately not the best place to go for breakfast. I would say, however, that it is worth a try - it's not at all terrible, just not amazing.

First of all, the prices are a little too expensive, even for being down at the beach where you expect most things to be overpriced. Drinks can shoot your bill up fast, so I suggest just drinking water. The portions are of a decent size, so they don't skimp there, however for average tasting food the prices could be lower.
The service is always just okay as well. Most of the servers are fine and do their job well. Typically I don't have a problem with the servers. However, there have been times when I went up to pay that a woman taking the payments has been rude. I'm not one to judge quickly, but after it happens a few times it makes me not want to spend money there. The food typically is quite quick to come out unless they are really busy.
The food is meh. The best thing they have is the stuffed french toast, as they give you a lot and it is really good! However all the breakfast staples are just normal, they don't knock your socks off.
It can get really really busy in the morning, to the point where the wait is way too long to want to stay. I say go a little later for breakfast (around 12) as that's a good way to avoid the rush. Weekdays are typically not as busy as the weekends in the morning.
All in all, it is truly just an average place.
