The Scene
From the moose head in the back room to the waitresses who call you "honey," this is a classic American diner that provides good food prepared with care.

The Food
Although the lunch menu serves up burgers, hot sandwiches and specials of the day, such as meat loaf, Brian's has gained a reputation as a breakfast place. While producing a passable eggs Benedict, Brian's excels at comfort food like creamy grits, fluffy omelets packed with cheese, ham and towering stacks of chocolate chip pancakes. If you're hankering for a Southern meal, try the warm homemade biscuits covered in a thick, white sausage gravy. Order a basket of sweet rolls--dense, doughy concoctions liberally sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar--while you wait for your order.
