A Nice Restaurant

The food is decent.  Nothing fancy, nothing exotic.  Just eggs and breakfast meats and toast and pancakes.  

The French Toast was made from bread that was baked right there in the kitchen.  It was pretty good but cold by the time I got to eat it since the wait staff failed to bring syrup with the plate.

This very assumingly named place is in a very unassuming location. It sits on the corner of a shopping center a bit from the main road with a nail salon and a dry cleaner. The inside is cozy but not very interesting. What they lack in appearance is made up for by service. On a busy morning, I ordered and recieved my food in less than 15 min. Usually I would be nervous because that means it was premade. I ordered the quesadilla and it was hot, fresh, and delicious. I initially was going to give it 3 stars because I am big on atmosphere, but I'm upping it to 4 because of the service and the food I recieved. It's not the most interesting experience, but it is functional and tasty- and that is commendable!

More than just an unimaginative name, A Nice Restaurant really is... well, a nice restaurant.

Let's be honest.  The name of the joint isn't "A Restaurant That Will Send You Raving" or "A Restaurant That Will Blow Your Mind."  No, it is "A Nice Restaurant" and that is exactly what it is.  They do one meal, breakfast, and they do it well.

The menu is pretty basic and includes eggs, omelets, pancakes, French toast, bacon, biscuits and gravy and so on; stuff you expect to find.  There are the normal breakfast platters and the occasional seasonal fare such as autumn's pumpkin French toast which is very good.  You won't leave feeling hungry and you're almost guaranteed to enjoy what you choose no matter what it is.

My only complaints are personal preference ones in that I like my hash browns a little crispier than they prepare them and stuff like that.

The servers run themselves ragged while cheerily attending to each table and the room has a bustling energy without feeling rushed.  Seating is almost never an issue and the floor to ceiling windows are excellent for providing the morning's natural light.  Along with the hand-painted walls and woven baskets, the feeling is warm and homey without feeling forced.

While you probably won't go out of your way to visit, A Nice Restaurant provides the kind of value for your basic breakfast dollar that you will be hard-pressed better in New Albany.
