Google reviewer said: "Stopped by for brunch. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. I ordered the double California burger with a runny fried egg and a hot dog with chili, mustard, and onion. The burger was perfectly cooked. Perfect amount of grease and the burger itself was amazing. The hot dog was great as well, the chili was good, the bun tasted grilled a little, but overall I'd order it again."
