  When visiting Idaho this is my favorite place to eat. The service is exceptional.
  My family changes up what they order every time we come. They all rave about how good their food is.
  I am stuck on the Aunt Mo's Potatoes. They are hash browns grilled with bacon, onions, and green peppers. Get my eggs scrambled and an English muffin. Oh yeah, add a slice of French toast.
  Yeah. It's a lot of food but the coffee washes it down nicely.

  Okay, it's official. Breakfast is probably one of my most favorite meals! Maybe it's the fact that I'm from Idaho and have a love affair with hash browns, or maybe it's because breakfast food is just really that amazing!  
  
  While visiting my best friend in Idaho this past weekend, we woke up with our tummy's grumbling and headed to The Griddle to get our brunch fix.
  
  Both of us opted for the California Eggs Benedict, because bacon, avocado and hollandaise sauce served on a croissant just sounded amazing! And oh it was! While I opted for eggs over hard instead of poached, it was seriously delicious. Served with a side of hash-browns that were cooked perfectly brown on the outside, we devoured our entire meal!
  
  Our server was probably one of the friendliest people, making sure we had everything we needed.
  
  The space itself reminds me of an old diner, and feels comfortable and cozy. The perfect place to catch up with a good friend over breakfast!

  This place has been our go to breakfast brunch place for many years. It continues to have great food at reasonable prices. I especially like their omelettes. They have some unusual sandwiches that are always great to.

  Not a bad place at all, but not the best in town. Only reason I came here was because Moe Joe's down the street had a 40 minute wait, while this place had no wait. Atmosphere / interior vibe inside is alright, can get a little loud at times, definitely not as cozy as Moe Joe's (IMO).
  
  Although there was no wait time, the service was slow, specifically when waiting for the food. The waitress and the younger guy we had serving us drinks & food were very nice and friendly.
  
  The food was alright, portions were kind of small for the price, and I wish they served country style potatoes rather than shredded hash browns, since the hashbrowns felt a little too greasy / rich after you ate them. One specialty item I ordered was the Blueberry pancakes (specialty because they only serve them on Sundays), and they were pretty good, although I wish they were served with some kind of blueberry or mixed berry type of syrup rather than maple (or maybe I had to request that?) and with built in walnuts or some other kind of nuts.
  
  I think the part I enjoyed most here was their cappuccino and latte (ordered both to compare). Still doesn't compare to the Konditorei Restaurant in Sun Valley OR Flying M Coffee Garage in Nampa, but the cappuccino here was kinda up there IMO. Also, the friendliness of the people here was one of the bigger pros for me.
  
  An area of improvement that would be nice to see is the reduced wait time for the food. Made me question if the no wait time for seating but the long wait time for food was even faster than just sitting it out in Moe Joes.
  
  Overall, can't give this place a 3 since in reality this place wasn't bad at all and I don't think that's fair, but can't give this place a 5 either, since I'm kind of stingy when giving out 5s. However, adding up the friendly service, the really good cappuccino, the pretty good blueberry pancakes, and the no wait time to sit, it's a 4. Just isn't a place that stood out to me, which kind of resulted in this semi uninspired review. Will I come back here, probably, but Moe Joe's is still the go to place in town (IMO), although the wait time recently on weekends is kinda getting annoying.

  Had a great brunch here! The staff was very friendly and the food was amazing. I highly recommend the pecan roll, and the California Benedict (croissant, bacon, avocado, tomato, and hollandaise). But you can't go wrong with anything on the menu!
