Yup.  La Peep.  And, along with the above disclaimer about the food, it's also 
more expensive than it's worth.  I'd also not agree with the "quick, friendly 
service"--it took me over 90 minutes to get lunch served there the last time!! 
Overall, breakfast is a bit of a bust, but Brion's Grill in Fairfax has a 
pretty good brunch...
