The Scene – Blue- and white-collars rub elbows in this Queen Anne eatery, and unshaven faces are definitely OK. Arrive early for breakfast and take advantage of exceptional people-watching opportunities during the moderate wait for a table. Open spaces and chirpy menu descriptions keep the place casual and relaxed, but servers are speedy and highly competent--mason-jar water glasses won't be empty for a moment. – – The Food – Owners Peter Levy and Jeremy Hardy have traveled the country in search of blue-collar cuisine. As a result, the menu--and its featured…

The food and service are lousy
by 506QAresident
The mason jars as water glasses set the tone from the beginning for a lousy, poorly orchestrated dining experience. My breakfast plate had cold toast, overly burnt potatoes and a barely edible omelette that tasted like someone took the top off a pizza and cooked it again in 2 eggs. The waiter was surly and we waited ages to get our food. My boyfriend's corn cakes were in theory very good, but also not warmed adequately. His omelette was bland, and the sausage accompanying it was cold. This was the 3rd time I tried eating there this year and I am still not impressed. I will not return there any more.
- Pros: Fun ambiance
- Cons: Lousy food, surly waitstaff, too crowded on weekends & holidays for breakfast

Bland and Poor Service
by Gilead19
My food was overcooked, and did not taste authentic. When I first entered the restaurant, I had to stand for longer than necessary, then finally walked around trying to get someone to realize that I was there. When my food arrived, it was so terrible that I felt guilty about spending any money at all. The price is definitely not comparable to the quality. Right now, they are serving a North Beach (San Francisco). As a local Northern Californian, I was excited to see what they could do. I wasn't impressed with anything that I ordered and the service was slow. The only reason I would ever go back to this restaurant is if they changed their prices to "pay what you think it's worth" - then I'd probably save a lot of money.
- Pros: Good idea, good location.
- Cons: Value, quality of food & service, and atmosphere are all well below average.

Is it really that hard to make toast?
by milson
Is it really that hard to actually toast BOTH sides of the bread when making toast? I find it truly disgusting. Please respond to this site- I will check it regularly- when you actually learn that toast generally consists of browning both sides of the bread- not lightly browning one side, and leaving the other completely alone. NOT GOOD. And when asked to fix please? THE ANSWER WAS NOOOOOOOOO! Super gross. Mushy. Toast. really? Is it that hard?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Pros: None yet. I really want to like it, but yuck
- Cons: YUCK
