Cornerstone Cafe

Dunsmuir is a known to be beautiful town. This was my first ever stop in Dunsmuir. Scenerywise, expectations were totally exceded. This place was a dream to eat in for its towniness and quietness, and the great town and nature views out the window. I also liked the fish sculptures on the wall. Brandie was an excellent "good morning" waitress. The coffee was terrific and so was my omelet dish. Touching the wrong picture, I unintentionally posted a selfie of me drinking the famous Dunsmuir water.

Came in twice this weekend. Once on Saturday , and also on Sunday. I had outstanding service from Brandy on Saturday paired with my superb Salmon Eggs Benedict. Brandy has always been great to me and fellow quest I send over the last few years. There Appeared to be some other waitress in training possibly? But she appeared she had just gotten off the mountain in Orange ski pants and ski jacket. I came again Sunday hoping for the same experience with Brandy, but was informed she was out of town. I received terribly bad service from the girl in the ski pants with short black hair, from the day before. Was very rude, didn't know simple questions of the menu. And I've never felt so rushed in my life but just the incredibly rude service, did it in for me. My food was great Sunday too though on a positive note. I'll be back when there is proper service. If Ember is my waitress again, I'll just take my business elsewhere. I've been in the food industry for years and this girl on Sunday most likely wasn't hired anywhere else. Shocked really, by this experience.

I went to the cornerstone this weekend. I had a great experience the first trip and than a bad experience on Tuesday. First, I came on a Sunday and the jazz band was lovely! We had great service from Randy. She was attentive and could tell she cared about our experience, because that is what dining out is, an experience. We had a Falafal and Gyro, SUCH FLAVOR. I could tell the chef knew his Mediterranean seasoning. YUMMY! Now my good experience stopped here. Next visit, I came in Tuesday for breakfast and a younger gal (who greeted me) holding my glass of water on the rim while she brought it out. yuck. Let that slide, another girl came out in a rush, not listening to my order, and rushing my group. We were the only table. We ordered three All American breakfast and all Over Medium eggs. All of which came out Over Hard. Hash browns raw uncooked. Server didn't come back out to check on the food, so we didn't even have to chance to let the chef no of the problem. The young girl dropped our check without a word said. The 2 girls must not have been more than 18 years old, maybe no experience in restaurants. A shame, a great experience on Sunday for lunch, poor for breakfast. Maybe I will come back when Randy is serving and the lunch Chef is around. I will come back and update. I give this 4 star credit to all the staff members on Sunday
