Long lines form on the weekends at this cramped spot, a favorite of neighborhood folks and tourists alike. You might get to know your neighbors because most of the tables, except for the coveted window tables, are pushed up against each other. A friendly waitstaff serves up a wide variety of pancakes, waffles, omelets and crepes at very reasonable prices.
