Nice omelet

by rowdyricky at Citysearch

Ola! Well on a whim I decided to try this place out. It was Saturday morn and it was busy. But I got lucky and was able to park IFO ( in front of) the place. There was list and a wait of 45 minutes. A couple said they were told 45 mins. too,but waited 20. So we sat in our car and waited. It was a balmy 70, clear skies a bit of wind but a beautiful day. A lot of people decided to not wait. I got impatient at 40 minutes went to ask and they gave me a table on the sidewalk. So I am a happy troop-per. The waiter was very fast nice and reeled off the specials. But I decided against them and my wifey , Andreia, stayed with her mundane pic, LOL.

I read the menu and was curious about their 3 egg omelet with country potatoes .sour cream and scones. Wifey had short stack and scrambled eggs ,hard cook.

2.25 for one egg 2.75 for two eggs I told her go for the two.

short stack 4.95

My breakfast was 7 or 8.95 ham and cheese omelet .

Well whoop my bunda and put me out to dry. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BREAKFAST I have ever. OUTSTANDING.

It is cooked ,per the menu ,in a french style. The eggs were creamy to the mouth and cheese was great. Ham was fine not too overwhelming.

I always pepper and hot pepper my egg. This time very little. and only a dash of salt. out of habit I think.

So I will be back for dinner and lunch. It is worth the wait and I am a impatient person

• Pros: Excellent food
• Cons: too popular

Really good pancakes

by winniepong at Citysearch

I have to say Bette's makes the best pancakes in town. I had the banana sour cream pancake and it was screaming good. I went there with my 9 months old little boy and he was ready to stick his hands in the plate. Overall, the wait was a little long. But the pancake really made my day. :)

• Pros: pancakes, pancakes, pancakes
• Cons: long wait

GREAT BREAKFAST

by felnbad at Citysearch

Bette's has fantastic Breakfasts. The Lox and Eggs are fantastic. The portions are a little small and the prices are a little high, but the quality makes up for the negatives. The long lines exist because so many people agree that the food is wonderful. I dislike going to the snooty, corporate 4th Street area, but I'll venture there any morning for Bette's breakfast.

• Pros: Food quality, funky "old time" diner appearance
• Cons: Corporate area, difficult parking, slightly high prices, waits
