What people say, in short
Mehri's is recommended for breakfast and brunch, with one diner singling out biscuits, cheesy potatoes and a stuffed pancake. Another calls it a charming small place, and several praise the food. The caveats are practical: several commenters find it expensive or miss it because of limited hours. One visitor reports a long wait with little indoor room to stand, while another says they have not had to wait. A straightforward biscuits-and-sausage-gravy recommendation is also part of the discussion.
