Cameo Cafe Northwest

2340 NW Westover Rd.

Why, oh WHY is this place so popular?! We've been here three times for breakfast (but only seated twice - the first time we left because of the disorganized mass of people waiting for a table with no sign of a host/hostess anywhere.) I am embarassed to have given this restaurant so many chances to win me over. The service is BAD - 10% tip bad; the waitstaff ignores you for ten minutes and then rubs your shoulders to make it all better. Ew. And the breakfast selections are obscenely overpriced. Not that I would want to eat an "acre" of pancakes, but where does one get off charging over $10 for pancakes?! (Can't remember the exact price, and they wisely don't post their menu online.) Does it taste okay? Yeah. But I'm confident Bisquick does as good a job for a fraction of the price. And what's with the black olive slices on the eggs benedict (right)? Looks awfully boobish.
