Crescent Moon has the best breakfast in Decatur. I won't go so far as to say it's the best breakfast in all of Atlanta, because there is much to be said about the Flying Biscuit as well, but let's say it's a close race between these two.
We went to the Crescent Moon for Sunday brunch, and were seated fairly quickly -in about 15-20 minutes. Sunday brunch is one of the restaurant's busiest times. They do have a nice "waiting room" in the back with coffee and a limited number of seats. If it weren't for the back room, you'd be waiting outside. The tables pack together fairly closely. Service is fast and friendly.
"The Heap" is a standard favorite here - seasoned hash brown potatoes topped with bacon, cheese and two eggs (any style). The "Vegetable Heap" subtracts the bacon and adds sauteed vegetables. I got Belgian Waffle Cakes - Belgian Waffle batter cooked on a griddle like pancakes. The full stack is 4 LARGE pancakes - I couldn't finish it all. A short stack is also available and a better option for people without a huge appetite. I tend to be able to eat a full stack of pancakes, but these filled me up fast. My husband got "The Usual" - two eggs, bacon, sausage, and potatoes, grits or biscuit. He finished it all, but was full by the end.
