The food is simply amazing. Genie's has quite the variety that you would struggle to find at other places. Most, if not all of what I saw was organic and local. Everything looked good however I had to go with the cakes. The white chocolate chip-hazel nut pancakes melted in my mouth. I just previously read a comment about the poor service someone received, so I would like to give you all hope: Me and my girlfriend had great service. The food was timely for how busy it was (they were at capacity and on approx. 10 min. wait time), and the quality obviously top notch. The only possible thing I could recommend to make it better would be to add a chicken fried steak option hehe. When we came in the owner, "Big J", was at the door with a smile. He seated us and gave us some good drink and food recommendations which turned out to be right on the money. If you don't live close, IT IS WORTH THE DRIVE!
Pros: THE FOOD! (obviously)
Cons: So good you might be in for a small wait.
