 Man, it was good. Here's the rundown:

 Arrived at 11:30 and did not have a wait at ALL. 7 of us got seated
 right away. Co-worker and I split an apple pancake and a mushroom and
 chedar omelette with mushroom sherry sauce.

 The apple pancake was very good, the pancake part was really eggy, I
 was expecting more of a pancake texture to it but I'd describe it as
 more of a french toasty texture, like that french toast that you soak
 overnite and then bake off the next day, if you know what I mean. The
 topping was sticky ooey gooey and sweet, like sticky bun cinnamon
 sugar. The apples were nicely done, a teensy bit crispy still. It is
 really good but far too sweet to be considered an entree IMO, it's
 more of a dessert. In fact, you can get ice cream on top of it for a
 dollar extra.

 The omelette was excellent. HUGE. Had to have at least 6 eggs in it,
 probably 8. The sauce was yummy and the abundant cheese complimented
 the whole thing nicely. The pancakes that accompanied it (all egg
 dishes come with 3 pancakes) were also absolutely delicious! All
 pancakes served with real maple syrup and whipped butter in a bowl,
 not a little plastic hickey-doo. I would highly recommend them, and I
 am a Pamela's devotee. They are different than Pamela's but just as
 good.

 Coworkers had other omelettes (the ham and cheese one was really
 good), pancakes, and chicken crepes that looked good and came with an
 enormous side of home fries. The coffee was served with real cream. We
 all agreed that it was really yummy and a great value as well (check
 for 7 VERY stuffed people who took doggy bags home was $58). Our
 entire table was covered with plates filled with food. If you've ever
 seen the Albert Brroks movie "Defending Your Life" with the enormous
 portions of food (that has no calories and tastes amazing) well,
 that's what it looked like.

 I'll be going back. As soon as my pants fit again!
