It's 5 stars on the food, 1 star on the atmosphere. I LOVE their pecan waffles, they have some of the best breakfast food--beats Denny's and IHOP hands down, but it's so gross how you're pretty much in the kitchen while you're eating. You get to see raw meat, batter ooze out of the waffle iron and onto the floor, and it's so loud from all of the sizzling food, you have to yell at whoever you're eating with. Maybe they're making an attempt at charming and down home, but I'd rather have the dining area away from the kitchen. FAR away!
