good day cafe comes through. there's not a lot i can add in terms of reviewing the food. it is very good. the coffee is yummy. the dining room bright and welcoming.
where they came through for us today was in service. as you might expect, late on a saturday morning, the place was jamming. a 45 minute wait is what the hostess told us. being first timers here we hoped it would be worth the wait. we were seated after about 30 minutes. you could tell the servers were really hopping. our server, stephanie, got us coffee quickly and then went off to get her other tables caught up. she came back shortly, refilled our coffe and took our orders. i had the bacon cheddar souffle omelet while my wife picked the apple souffle pancake. our food arrived after a reasonable amount of time (the pancakes take a little longer. if you have one you'll know why). they were delivered by a runner. our server came by a minute later, took one look at our food and said it looked over done. now i don't mind my eggs a bit passed done but the pancake souffle was definitely a bit charred. stephanie took my wife's pancake and said she was going to fix things. she came back an instant later with the owner / manager (?) who asked me if i wanted a new omelet. i'd rather eat something the way the chef intended it to served. sure i'll take a new one. while stephanie hurried away to take care of business the manager explained how things can go bad on a busy line. i've been in the business for years, no explanation required. what was exceptional was how they caught the problem and fixed it post haste. i'm sure the person manning the pass got an earful. the boss told us how stephanie came from another popular eatery and brought many customers with her due to her attentiveness as a server. (stephanie, over hearing the praise commented that he was just trying to get her to work a double shift :-))
bottom line, go to good day cafe for good food, bright atomosphere and interesting menu. stand in line for 30 minutes to be waited on by stephanie.
