Great local spot for amazing food, friendly staff, and no long wait times. The outdoor seating area is perfect on a sunny day. Highly recommend them for weekend breakfast as well. A great local Seattle find!

Very tasty breakfast options and great service! I recommend the egg sandwiches with grilled potatoes. Lots of menu options with vegan/vegetarian options as well. Restaurant is very cozy and in a convenient location! Great place for a quick breakfast.

I have now been to Tenth West three times, and sadly, will not be returning. If I were to summarize my experience with a metaphor, it's that I feel like a battered wife, getting smacked by my husband, but then apologizing for making him smack me, and trying to appease him at every turn. I moved into the neighborhood coming up on two years ago and try to frequent our local establishments as much as possible; Tenth West is within walking distance of my home, so the convenience factor is phenomenal. I had read reviews about the coffee cake shortly after the move, and had to try it out, so I ventured down and was so excited to give it a go. When I came through the front door, I immediately loved the décor and small town grocery store off to one side; super cute. What wasn't great, however, was the reception by the hostess. I had never been here before, so after standing for a bit to see if they would seat me, or if it was more of a counter service where you order and then sit, I walked up to the counter and asked if I placed my order with her then, or at the table. She seemed very annoyed at my existence, but I brushed it off and tried to kill her with kindness throughout the entire time I was there; people have bad days and I chalked it up to that. I ended up ordering a coffee and the coffee cake. I was so excited when the coffee came out and it was a full French press. I ended up getting about 3 cups out of it, which by Seattle standards, was a crazy deal at only $4. The coffee cake was also so delicious. The melted butter on top took it next level. I expressed my love for all of the things to the hostess when she came to clear my table, and again, it was like I was just a bothersome gnat, circling her head. I was honestly nervous to have to ask her if I paid at the table or at the counter. I ended up paying, thanked her for her help, tipped her well, and went about my day. This was about a year and a half ago. My aunt came into town a couple of months later, and I told her I had to take her here for the coffee and coffee cake. We walked down and waited to be seated. It was the same woman working as my first visit. We sat and ordered TWO coffees, and one coffee cake to share. At this point, my aunt asked me if the woman was ok, as she had the same demeanor from my first visit. We felt like we were the bane of her existence, and I was embarrassed that I had raved about this place. I said I also noticed that she seemed bothered, but maybe she was having a bad day (again). Shortly after we ordered, our food arrived. What came out, however, was just one of the same French presses that I had ordered when it was just me, and it had the same amount of coffee as the first time...but we had ordered two...and ultimately were charged for two. I don't understand how I got one French press for $4 the first time when it was just me, but then also got only one French press for $8 when I ordered two. Both presses only yielded 3 cups of coffee, so I was basically charged double for the same thing. There was no way I was going to bring this up to the hostess based on her general demeanor, so I left it at that, paid the entire tab, tipped (glutton for punishment I guess), and we left. The third and final time I went here was about 5 months ago, and it was only because I had a business meeting with someone who worked down the street, and due to his time constraints, needed to find somewhere close to him. I knew better, but I did it anyway. To no surprise, the same woman was working the front, and I had the exact same experience as the two previous times. I was only ever kind, patient, smiling and thankful with her during EVERY encounter, so I don't know what the he** is going on here, but it's off-putting. It's disheartening that this local eatery is somewhere I don't feel welcomed when I visit, and I'm sure I cannot be the only person who feels this way. I don't think I was singled out, but maybe I was, or I just happened to catch her on the three bad days she's had. The best thing to have co

Felt like they were trying to kill me with a brick of bacon from the bottom of the tray. Several strips stuck together, completely saturated in grease.

While the chef is amazing, I get the impression the server has been soured by how the IT industry has changed the city over the years. Watch out what you say and what backpack you are wearing, if it is known you work for the big IT players you will get subpar service. If you are there during working hours, I have unsubstantiated suspicions it is taken even further.

This was the best breakfast I've ever had. Usually, breakfast is breakfast, but this place is fantastic. The scramble I ordered was so flavorful. The waitress/chef was a lovely person.

Cozy spot with fresh, homemade breakfast. My breakfast scramble was absolutely delicious!

Cute little breakfast/brunch spot that reminds me if you were to date the farmers daughter and they welcomed you into the family. The scramble was pretty good but the potatoes were gassed makes it hard for me to go back to McDonald's hash brown after

Amazing atmosphere, great conversation and incredible food. Really like home cooked food for breakfast. They even accomodated a friends weird order for half and half sandwich options! Definitely worth coming back to!!
