The best french toast you will ever have in your life. No question about it.

They close early (around 2pm) and are always pretty busy. There's also a good variety of breakfast and lunch food. Everything I've tried there is excelent.

we went to harbaughs after hearing WONDERFUL things from locals about the food and atmosphere. Upon being seated no one smiled, the server was very rushed and rude, never came back to ask if we needed anything... when the food was done, the OWNER delivered it and said, and I quote, "Hello, do i have the right table?" and just tossed our food down and left. turns out we didnt hear her speak to us and say 'quake eggs' and she then took it upon herself to snap and leave. we let her know how rude and innapropraite it was and thus left. she gave no appologies and said 'the food was hot', we said ' if you used a tray and not your arms it wouldnt have been burning you'. i will never go back after such poor customer service for being a tourist there.
