This restaurant turned down a famous Food Network chef because they already have enough fame. There is always a wait! Best to arrive before opening, get you name on the list, and enjoy a stroll around the neighborhood while you wait (weather permitting), or, bring a book to read in the car. My favorite is the Creme Brulee French Toast!
