I eat here for breakfast quite often. The staff is friendly and the owner, Aimee is great! Breakfast here is a guilty pleasure :) You have to try the steak and cheese bagel...wow!

Ernie's sparked my interest because of the high marks it received on rating websites. My wife and I went on a busy Sunday morning and after a reasonable wait to get seated we ordered our meal. Little did I realize that the best thing on the menu would be the political parody. It took an inordinate amount of time for... More

The waitress was great, the service quick and the food was excellent. The place was very nice on the inside, old style charm and nice views of the outside. Brunch prices were very reasonable... More
