This simple and unassuming restaurant has been my favorite breakfast spot for decades. The omelettes are the fluffiest I have ever seen. My favorite dish is their Dutch Baby (German pancake) with a little lemon squeezed on top. Homemade whipped cream atop the best hot cocoa around (it's really more like dessert).

Great food. Huge portions. Two can easily share or take it home for lunch the next day. Great prices. Basta Pasta with Chicken or a Picasso Salad are both consistent winners in my book. Don't forget to save room for the warm ice cream cookie sandwich (yes, also shareable). They also have a bar area and outside seating. Oldies music plays at a high decibel so be prepared to raise your "inside voice" to new heights.
