Much better than their sister place. Food is great and service is usually very friendly. However, don't enter if you're expecting a relaxing meal. Place is beyond too loud. The brunch crowd brings out the loudest basic people with the largest voices read more

OMG! Pure foodie-gasm!! Got the French toast with blueberries and walnuts. So nom! During the crisis I order delivery and it arrived still hot and fresh. So it made the commute across the town to me well. Not only tasty food but well prepared even for travel. Bravo Altea's! read more

I love going here for breakfast. Seems like I always get the same thing, I promise to try something else next time. Service is always welcoming and efficient. Environment is open and clean. Menu has both breakfast and brunch! Eggs Benedict: I always get this cause I'm obsessed with eggs Benedicts. But it has a great flavor balance. A teensy bit too lemony for me, but that doesn't stop me from wiping the plate clean. The potatoes here are my favorite. They're soft and flavorful, just how I like them. It is a big meal, so prepare for leftovers if you have a small stomach. Granola: I get basically the "parfait" on the menu. The granola is deliciously crispy/crunchy (but not too hard). The fruit (usually strawberry) tastes wonderful mixed with the Greek yogurt and granola. This is very refreshing and makes me feel healthy, haha. Banana French Toast: Amazing. The french toast is fluffy and a little crisp on the outside. It is smothered with flavor on top, and the banana is cooked perfectly. read more

I'll start by saying that I took away a star because I think the ambiance/decor at Altea's could be better. I feel like it has a sort of Parisian theme but it falls short. I would like to see more of the white walls filled and some nice green plants. The food gets 5 stars though. I've been here 3 times already and it's one of my favorite brunch places in Worcester. Everything's good and you can't go wrong with anything you order because it will all taste so good. I'd recommend the waffles with the banana foster...so decadent! Also order the "make your own mimosas" special... it's a great deal, and I always love me a boozy brunch! read more

Really great food and service. We saw the reviews on Yelp and thought we would give it a try and it was so worth it!

I waited about an hour for two onion soups, one without cheese. My soup being the one without cheese tasted old and as if it had lost a significant amount of flavor. It tasted like this soup would've popped with flavor if it were served fresh, and if it was, then the recipe needs work. It was not very good soup, put plainly. I'll have to give it another try. read more

This place is overrated. They are always swamped, food is over priced. It's meh. First time I went the poutine was cold, and I wasn't expecting raw veggies. Second time I got a corned beef hash and the poached eggs were literally raw I had to send it back, and the wait staff were taken aback and seemed offended. Overall mediocre and under seasoned The drinks are good though if you're looking for somewhere to get mimosas. read more

Worth the wait, even worth the bees/wasps flying outside. Thankfully, my party of six was promtply seated. As long as you're not in a rush, you will abdolutely love Altea's. My best bruch experience in Worcester so far. And when it comes to brunch, who wants to rush anyways? Altea's will treat you right, they will listen to you, and fulfill your deepest brunch desires. It's lengendary brunch burger will cure your hangover and make you age backwards, and its corned beef hash will reassure you that everything will be alright. I cannot wait to come back to try all the other delicious dishes - so many options, both savory and sweet! We quite literally found ourselves gawking at other customers' dishes, wondering about what could be . Yes, it was packed and service was a bit slow, but our server catered to our every need. If you don't go, it's fine because that means more brunchy goodness for me. read more

This is honestly the best breakfast place that I have been to in the Worcester area. It is a small, modern looking breakfast place that is sure to excite. Our table of 5 was seated in less than 10 minutes, and the service was phenomenal. Everyone who came to breakfast was blown away by the food! I had the eggs Benedict and shared a Nutella crepe-- both are delicious. The orange juice was also a great. Overall, I would go to breakfast here over any place in Worcester any day. read more

Had brunch here for a second time. Ordered the smoked salmon omelet and it was fantastic! Omelet was cooked well and paired great with the potatoes and french baguette. My friend ordered eggs and apple crepes and they were delicious as well. We both ordered coffees with Jameson... And they were perfect. I also wanted to try the spicy blood mary which was one of the better ones ive had in worcester. My friend stated her mimosa was great too. Simple modern decor and a clean table made the dining experience pleasant as well. Our waiter was helpful but not overbearing. He stopped by when needed but I didnt feel the need to look for him. My friend and I had some catching up to do, which he never disrupted and only appeared when he noticed empty cups or plates. Would definitely recommend, an underrated brunch spot. Only difficulty youll find is parking. Enjoy! read more

It's everything you want in a brunch place. Fancy waffles, pancakes, crepes. Steaks and sandwiches. Their breakfast sandwiches in croissants are absolutely delicious. Hard to find good beignets in our area but theirs are great. Best of all are the mimosa varieties! read more

Mom and I came in for a pre Mother's Day brunch. It was a little frentic when we arrived but we scored a two top quickly. Within 30 minutes, the crowd dissipated and the noise level came down a few notches. The place use to house a great Armenian restaurant. Now, it's a cafe style place with a French / Parisian theme. Wait staff are friend and efficient. I was craving a nice cup of tea. Woe is me, Lipton only. Bad sign. I drank Worcester ice water on a cold Saturday. Mom had decaf. The menu has lots of great options. I chose the veggie harvest omelette without goat cheese and toast. Mom had eggs Benny. Food came super fast and super hot. My omelette was chock full of veggies. It was tasty. The Lyonnaise potatoes were more suited for a dinner; large soft pieces with onion. I'd have preferred them cooked crispy versus soft. Mom pronounced her poached eggs cooked perfectly. The Hollandaise was bright orange perhaps commercial versus house made? Back to her flavours, she liked her dish well. Everything was AOK, nothing wow. Parking is on the street. There is a lot in back but it did not have Altea listed on the sign so we parked elsewhere. read more

Chicken waffle and tomato bisque were excellent. I would definitely come back Service was good and wait time was none. read more

Owners Menton and Oriola have created a wonderful Park Ave. bistro in Altea. Although the very industrial décor differs greatly from that of its sister restaurant, Livia's Dish, the husband and wife team once again comes through with outstanding food and genuine hospitality (Oriola makes sure to visit with each and every customer. Now this is someone who is, most definitely, in the right business). Our sweet waiter, Ken, was none too shabby either. He even allowed me to snap a pic of him. Sis stuck to breakfast fare and pronounced her short rib-stuffed omelet, rife with tender meat and an abundance of white Cheddar, the best she's ever had. I can't say enough about my burger, which had absolutely perfect flavor combinations: The patty, served between a buttery bun which seemed to me like a cross between a croissant and a brioche roll, was cooked to my specified doneness (medium-rare) and topped with the most delicious onion jam, Boursin cheese, ripe tomato slices and baby greens. This burger was one of the best I've ever eaten. And the fries (skin-on, shoestring style)... Let me just say that you will eat the entire pile. Let me also say that the service pace was perfect as well. So if you're looking for an outstanding breakfast or brunch, Altea is the place to go. We look forward to many more here. read more

Overall rating: 3.5 (rounded up to 4 for positive experience) I love the minimalist seating and decor -- it keeps the place looking very clean, bright, and inviting. I had the special, the shrimp frittata, with a light arugula salad on top. I thought it was good, but not mind blowing. The toasted, buttered bread was also a nice compliment to the dish! The eggs benedict was okay. I think I was hoping for a little bit more. The hollandise sauce was very yolky compared to some other one's I've had, and the ham was a pretty thin slice. I've had better, but I think that the taste and the portion were fitting for the price. Service was good, and I'd definitely return! read more

Just finished having one of the best breakfast I've had in a very long time. I had the corn beef hash and my wife had the steak and eggs. The meat was seasoned really good and has a Latin flavor to it. I wish I lived nearby for sure I would eat here often. I hope to return someday. read more

Stopped for some breakfast during a road trip to New York. I was hesitant to come here and the homefries did not look appetizing. We were greeted and immediately seated. I started with Sparkling fruit sangria which might have been one of the best I've ever had! We ordered the short rib omelet (with homefries) and French toast topped with blueberry. Both were AMAZING! The homefries were also absolutely delightful! I'm glad we ended up coming here after all. read more

Went to Altea for brunch when visiting our daughter at Cummings Vet School. We got there at 10:00 am. It was busy but not full. We were seated immediately. Our waitress was nice and attentive. They had good coffee. I was able to get an Americano even though it was not on the menu. I had the Veggie omelette which was delicious. There was a generous amount of vegetables and the omelette was cooked just right, was fluffy, folded and filled with goat cheese. My husband had the frittata and liked the flavor of it. Our daughter had the crêpes with Nutella which looked amazing. Our waitress kept checking on us, making sure all was well. By the time we were done, the place was busy and there was a line of people waiting. Parking was on the street. I definitely recommend the place. read more

The food is amazing! The poutine, Benoit, and crepes were to die for. The staff were friendly and very attentive. I'll be back because there's more I want to try! read more

Fantastic meal! Kristianna was so sweet and helpful. Bloody Mary was delicious! Locks tasted really fresh. I actually preferred it over the Benedict. And it's my favorite thing! We are from Texas, but we come every year. We will definitely return! read more

Have had breakfast there a bunch of times, the food is great but the wait staff is beyond horrible. They ignore you, forget silverware and drinks, hope you don't want a refill on your coffee. I've been there before and after Covid so that is not the issue. Allow at least an hour and a half for breakfast. The only reason I keep going back is the chicken and waffles. Never had a bad meal on bad attitudes. read more

I knew I was going to be in Worcester for the day so naturally I wanted to try some of the best food spots. My friend recommended we try out Altea's for brunch and after looking at the Yelp page (as I always do) I was really looking forward to trying it. We went on a Saturday morning and while it was busy we only waited about 15 minutes to be seated. The first thing I noticed was there was so much variety on the menu without it being too overwhelming. We ordered the bucket of bubbles for our drink which includes a bottle of Prosecco and your choice of 3 juices. I had the breakfast poutine and my friend ordered steak and eggs. The meals didn't take long at all even though the restaurant was fully packed. I really enjoyed my poutine; just enough sauce and the kielbasa added that extra flavor I was looking for. My friends steak was cooked to perfection as well. It was a really enjoyable experience overall and the food was simply delicious read more

Visited for the first time and will definitely be back! Best breakfast in town. I had the short rib omelette with home fries and my husband had the corn beef hash with eggs.

By far my favorite breakfast spot in Worcester. Their menu is so unique. The Spiced Sugar Beignets are my go-to. I have yet to go for lunch but if it's even half as good as it's breakfast menu, I will be more than satisfied! read more

Good breakfast spot. Good food. Good service. Worth the trip if you're in the area! They do a good job with takeout, too!

Quaint on the outside, but the interior is very inviting. Great service and an amazing breakfast. Also Starbucks has nothing on the caffeine offerings Ava's here. Plus adult beverages. It's a repeater. read more

I tried this place recently for breakfast, the food was excellent! We sat at the bar, the bar tender was friendly and attentive. The pancakes were the size of the dish, and the sausages were cooked perfectly, delicious. I highly recommend eating here! read more

I have not been disappointed once. I love the menu variety. It can always find the right meal for my mood and it's delicious.

Food was really fresh and I was thoroughly impressed with the taste as well! Great location although, it's a very busy street. The atmosphere was very nice and it was clean! If I could give an actual number I'd give it a 4.8 because the restaurant could use a little renovation. read more

Overall the food here is good, I had an omelet and added the steak as a side....the sausage and goat cheese salad was excellent-the steak not so much. There was no sear on the meat, it was coated with seasoning and herbs which gave it an almost unpleasant texture. My friend had a salad with the same steak sliced atop it-again, he did not enjoy the steak. A definite place to try, the omelet was that good! read more

Yummy food cool vibes. I had the best smoked salmon bagel in my whole life. My husband had some sort of corn beef hash dish also delicious. Will definitely go back. read more
