Sound Bites

Hello, all.
I'm moving to Magoun Sq in Somerville, in a few days, and I barely know the area. Can anyone tell me if Sound Bites, the breakfast place on Broadway, is really as bad, service-wise, as the horror stories indicate? Is the food worth it?

A brisk walk up Broadway is Renee's, a block down Holland St from Teele Square. They used to be as crowded as Soundbites, but a couple years ago they expanded into the neighboring storefront and more than doubled their seating.

sadly, i still can't get a second cup of coffee there. so after going for a few years, and later being introduced to soundbites, i stopped going to renee's (despite their amazing homefries) and started going to Soundbites (regularly enough that the staff know me, and their "no place like homefries" are to die for if you like garlic :-).
