This cafe was absolutely incredible. The food was so good. All fresh and clearly made from scratch with love. I have traveled far and wide and that stuffed French toast and omelet could not be better. My omelet: bacon inside was crispy, the cheese melty, the onions even carmalized! The potatoes were cooked perfectly and had a great herby flavor! I can’t even start with the stuffed French toast. The mascarpone in there was second to none. Omg it was so good. It had some coasting for perfect crunch. Unreal. I was going to ask my boyfriend how his breakfast sandwich was but it was already gone.Our server, Ron, was a delight! Just incredible.Vegetarian options: They have a whole vegetarian/vegan section on the menu!

Quaint and colorful little restaurant with lots of yummy food choices. The service was excellent and our dishes were delicious, however, their limited coffee drink menu cost them a star from my side.

5 stars for the brisket omelet! Probably the best omelet I've ever had.3 stars for the pancakes. They were huge and the fruit and chocolate chips in them were delicious but the pancakes by themselves were just okay.Great service, it was fast and friendly!
Went here for brunch totally and loved it. The food is great, they have options for vegans and everyone there was so friendly. Amazing neighborhood spot. Highly recommend!

Cute little cafe, and service was great, but the food was so bland. I don’t think I’ve ever had a more bland pancake. Not even butter or syrup could save that thing. The bowl was pretty good though!
