Upon entering the establishment, I take note that the eatery is small and is packed full of hungry customers, despite this, I cannot say I have ever seen a restaurant run this efficiently. Sherry is the general manager but nonetheless, she is diligently working the tables, to expedite the process and to provide good service. Nicole is my Umnikezi kutya. She is friendly, likable, and very charming. It bears mentioning however that without Sherry, Nicole would be in the weeds.
I ordered from the “Lucie’s Spotlight” section of the menu. My selection consisted of homemade corned beef hash, prepared with bell pepper, onion and two eggs. Now this is some awesome food! (Feast your eyes on the picture). I am presented with large, tender strips of corned beef, accompanied by a very nice biscuit. Patrons are given an option to forgo the biscuit in favor of a cookie. I could not resist, of course and picked both. The cookie was utterly delicious.
Allow me to be clear on this; if Sherry was not available to assist, facilitate, and ease the burden that often accompanies a crowded restaurant, it’s quite possible that the service provided would be appraised as average at best or perhaps very nearly teetering on the verge of unmitigated absumption. Please resist any attending compulsion. which may exist, to send me messages complaining about the caliber of the service. My experience, along with the quality of the food was simply outstanding.

Read moreA nice place to eat on Merritt Island. This is located just north of the Merritt Island Causeway on teh east side of US-3. It is a stand-alone building with limited parking that is situated mostly on the south side of the building. It seems a relatively new restaurant with a new feel to it. As you enter, you are greeted and led to a table or booth. The seating area is all inside at this location and is a mixture of tables and booths in a large central room. The kitchen is visible as you enter the room to the left of the hostess station. It has an open feel to it thanks to the back of windows along the south side. The decor is very tastefully done with white, ceiling, dark floors and sayings on the wall. The waitress was friendly and professional. She took our order quickly and efficiently. The menu had the usual breakfast and lunch choices with most meals in the $10-$15 range. I tried the french toast and bacon. It was thick slices of toast with powdered sugar. Overall, it was a pleasant experience that I would try again and recommend for others in the area looking for a good...
Read moreWent in for breakfast, very inviting, clean environment and friendly staff. Second time there, went back for the yummy croissant egg sandwich. Nice place, till I got the bill. $7 for 2 cups of coffee (no wonder they were pushing to refill) and each breakfast was approximately $15+. Ok. . .but for goodness sake, serve real hash browns or real potatoes for that kind of money not frozen potato cubes thrown in the fryer. My husband's chicken fried steak was average. Almost $50 for breakfast, you've gotta up your game. So sorry. Oh, and when i uncovered the sausage patty on my sandwich, it was burnt on one side, should have been pitched, again, to charge the price you've got to up your game. There's a whole retired population out there who hasn't gotten a minimum wage increase like the rest of the country. I feel raked over the coals when...
