Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
One subject runs through these 14 reviews more than any other: the staff. Front-of-house tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 5.0 stars.
No one in this corpus comments on speed of service at all. The split is 14 positive to 0 negative across 14 rated reviews.
On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (90/100), with 1 high-priority and 2 basic violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. The visit behind that grade was April 27, 2026. Across its inspection history the kitchen is declining, which argues for reading the older reviews with caution. On health score it sits safer than 51% of the Volusia County restaurants we grade. For specifics, the last inspection cited food from approved source and insects/rodents/pests.
Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

We travel FT in our RV and always go out for breakfast. This is the best breakfast that we have found in the area. We have tried a lot of Duds but this is good. Everything is fresh and delicious. The service is also amazing. Our Server remembered us from a year ago! He looks just like Matthew Lillard and very attentive. 10 out of 10 and that's a Lot coming from me as I can be a harsh critic.
