We stopped here in the morning on a road trip to Los Angeles. We waited for it to open at 8:00AM. The pea soup did NOT disappoint? It was delicious. Highly recommend the Danish sausage as well. This is a tourist trap that must be sprung. Can a place have too much atmosphere? We hope to return for the Hap-pea Hour!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

The food here is delicious! I’m not sure about the total authenticity, but the flavors were spot on. I tried the Danish meatballs, split pea soup, and salad, while the kids loved their chili cheese fries and hamburger. also liked the cute snack area. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy a full meal.

This place feels more like a classic roadside stop than a destination for great food. The restaurant is very large and clearly designed to serve a high volume of customers, so it works if you are looking for a place to quickly fill up during a road trip. However, the food itself was generally overcooked, and the waiting time for our dishes was longer than expected. The split pea soup with bread was interesting and unique. It is definitely something different and fun to try at least once, especially if you are curious about their signature dish. Overall, it is a convenient stop to get full, but I would not consider it a must-visit food destination or a “foodie” spot.
