lincoln square pancake house

fantastic place! gonna be a new favorite! service is fast,goodis great, portions are huge, and the price is right!! can't wait to go back! i had the french toast platter. it's just basic french toast but it was some damn tasty stuff and there was enough for 2 meals easily!!

everything was perfect...except for the pancakes oddly enough.. i took my kids to lincoln square last sunday because it was somewhat close to the children's museum. well that was probably a mistake because it was right when the church crowd got let out. regardless, we were actually sat within 5 minutes and my waiter came over and graciously took my entire order immediately (i needed this to happen because crazy kids). although the wait felt like it took a little bit longer than usual for our food, i'm sure it was just because i was impatient with my kids. in reality, the food was out ingoodtime.

i like the fact that they use dinosaur shape chicken nuggets because that's fun for the kids. it's odd how nobody else uses these at the other places i've been to. i got a southwest omelet which was to have chorizo as the main ingredient. this chorizo was odd in the fact that it had the consistency of sloppy joe from a can, not really what i'm used to. but otherwise it was a very flavorful skillet that i can't complain about. the one thing i could complain about was the pancake i got with my meal. this thing was dry as all get out. i wish i had an "after" picture to show you just how much this thing crumbed up on me. i've never had a pancake like before. all of the butter i put on it still didn't make it become softer. then the syrup (i'm not a syrup guy) was also of no help, just making the crumbs stickier as i cut it with my fork.

so i don't know if this was just a fluke in the recipe that day or what, but for a place that puts the word "pancake" in their name, they sure don't havegoodones. maybe they should be called the lincoln square skillet house?

anothergoodbreakfast, but chipped beef gravy only okay.. wife and i ate here a couple of weeks ago. we've been here a couple of times already. even when it looks busy, they are able to get us seated within 10 minutes or less. we both ordered the "meat lovers skillet" and it was prettygoodlike most everything we've had here. however, the "chipped beef gravy" had a very strange after taste and will likely not order again. regardless, everything we've had here aside from the cb gravy has been very good! we'll be back again! pics included!

enjoy!

verygoodbreakfast!. had been waiting on this location to open for quite some time and heard it finally opened a few months ago. finally got a chance to swing by for breakfast and this place didn't disappoint. i had the "country lady breakfast" which is mainly a country fried steak with gravy, hashbrowns, eggs, etc. very good! wife had the "western omelette" and she loved it! they also serve chipped beef gravy which i'll try next time. our server was extremelygoodand checked on us just often enough. we'll be back! pics included.
