Lines can be long, but the place is clean, crowded, LOUD, and full of happy people eating. Try the brisket any way you can find it, but tell them to use a light hand with the sauce or they drown the meat. Home fries have bell pepper and onion in them - great if you like that, not so much for me since I don't. Owners and staff dash around because they are busy! Coffee is good but now and then you have to flag down whoever has a pot for a refill because they are slammed. Never had bad food - just wish it weren't so painfully loud. Closed on Sundays so that means working folk have only 1 day to get there for a great breakfast. Like many great breakfast places, it all over by 2 and the place closes. Try it - you really can't lose anything but some hearing nerve cells.
