The matcha is the BEST I've had ever in the states. Everything I've had on their breakfast menu hasn't disappointed either. My favorite is the breakfast sandwich on a croissant with tomato jam. When I'm feeling healthy, I'll get the Cedros (no carb brekkie). The staff and ambience have always been nice too. I like picking the spot for a place to meet up with a friend to catch up or just to catch up on some work!

I just love this place. Although it's a bit pricey because they use quality oils and products, I…read morehave had very good experiences here. The staff is incredibly attentive and I have never had bad service here and I've been here quite a lot. So management is definitely doing something right! The food is good. But the drinks are spectacular. I absolutely love that they do not use seed oils and are cognizant of using quality ingredients. That means a lot to people like myself who are health-conscious. This is one of the main reasons I continue to support their business and will continue to be a regular. Always excited when they add something new to the menu. My favorite drink is the myan mocha. It is the perfect amount of sweetness, not too sweet, and I just love the spiciness of the cayenne. I have also tried many of their other drinks and they're all fantastic.

Located at the end of a strip mall, there was ample parking. Walking in, it wasn't busy at all on a Saturday around 12:30pm. It was nice & quiet. There's indoor seating as well as a couple of tables outside at the entrance. There's even a playpen for littles which is great. There's a good array of classic & sweet coffees to choose from and various pastries made in house. They also make a few breakfast & lunch items as well. We ordered a Latte with oat milk and the Midnight Mocha. Both our coffees were really good. Was worth the visit!

To start, the employees here are so sweet! There are so many seating options inside, outside, and even an additional seating area in a more quiet and secluded room. I was a little nervous that the wheat alternatives would be bland or dry and hard, but everything was delicious! I ordered the Veggie Lovers pizza with vegan mozzarella and ricotta on a paleo crust. I was pleasantly surprised by how soft and flavorful the crust was! The vegan cheeses were also exceptional and the entire pizza was cooked perfectly. The tortillas that they use for the tacos are good as well. Whether you are gluten-free, vegan, trying to eat healthier, or simply accompanying a friend, Nectarine Grove has something for everyone!

Been here 3 -5 times in the past 2 months. Today was the topper though. They gave us menus when we walked in and despite 3 different employees walking right by, over a 10 minute period, none of them acknowledged us. Not even the server serving the table right next to us. So I get up and walk to the register where 3 employees are hovering around the front counter, nobody really doing anything that seemed urgent. I let them know we've been sitting and waiting for a good 10 min plus for someone to take our order. Gal at counter took my drink order and says someone will take my order when they bring my cappuccinos. Great, I guess we'll be waiting another 5 or so minutes to place our order. Once they took our order, food came out in a reasonable time but that was it. No checking back with us or any of the standard sit-down restaurant service. I even had to go up to register to grab my check. It's a shame a restaurant with better than average food can't perform average customer service. Pastries are solid 4.5 stars but I am giving 2 stars to see if we get the attention of the owners/management. PS. There was lipstick on my coffee cup too.

FEEL THE COASTAL VIBE You'll find yourself among locals and travelers alike--many of whom wish they lived here, in the kind of coastal town that Lofty helps make feel like home. And, Parking and service are above average for the area.

I visited their location  in Encinitas today to meet a friend and unfortunately had a very…read moredisappointing experience. I ordered the Greek scramble, which comes with a bagel. When my food arrived, the bagel had visible mold on it. It was very concerning that this wasn't caught before being served. I brought it to the attention of the staff member who delivered the food. Instead of taking the plate back and replacing the meal, he simply removed the bagel from my plate and brought another one. Given the situation, I would have expected the entire dish to be remade. Additionally, the coffee mug I was given appeared dirty, which added to my concerns about overall cleanliness. I later felt sick and experienced symptoms consistent with food poisoning, possibly related to the meal. For the quality of food and service provided, the pricing felt unreasonably high. The overall experience did not reflect the cost. I'm really disappointed with the lack of quality control and how the situation was handled. I hope management takes food safety, cleanliness, and customer service more seriously moving forward.

The food is incredibly fresh and perfect if you're looking for healthy, on-the-go options that don't sacrifice flavor. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or hanging out for a bit, everything feels thoughtfully made and high quality. It's also one of those rare places that truly works for everyone -- families, friends catching up, casual dates, or even a solo stop. And the fact that it's dog-friendly is the cherry on top If you're looking for a laid-back spot with great food and a community feel, this is definitely worth checking out!

There's also really cute to dog oriented, snack, snacks, and outfits. I'll have to check out their wine in more detail. I mean from the grocery store if you head back then you go straight into the farm grounds. There is a 12 or $15 charge for a farm tour but if you have kids, it's perfect cause you get to go see the farm animals, including the owner's horse and they have a cute little train ride. In the back is also a brewery of their craft brews. See them in pictures I've added. I definitely need to go back to check out the craft brewery. -No dogs allowed on the farm portion I went upstairs to have brunch, which is a new addition to the area. Staff was definitely attentive. I recommend making reservations for this so that you get the tables either outside overlooking the farm or the field. We did a walk-in for four people so we could only get a table on the inside. It's definitely a cool place to hang out temperature wise. Food was pretty quick to come out. Portion sizes are moderate to big that we had to take home some stuff. We did have an issue where the chicken was undercooked, but they were able to remedy that very quickly. Definitely get the beet hummus. I only wish they had more crudités accompany it. You can see it only came out in a small little dish. Probably would recommend either sizing down the hummus or going up on the vegetables to make it a little bit more complete. The chicken and pancake was definitely interesting and not what I expected. Pancake is carrot and lemon, but you can't really taste the lemon. It only had sparse carrot in it, but definitely still worth a taste. The chicken was definitely savory and more herby so it kind of overpowered the pancake a bit. Definitely chicken packed. Fries came out pretty soggy, which was a downside. The root vegetable has looked pretty good and it was definitely a sizable portion. The eggs and pasture was a little bit interesting in the sense that day. It was kind of a fried egg surrounded by a pasta sauce and then there's bread ciabatta slices on the plate. It's pretty good not overly salty or overly tart for the sauce. Definitely a good keto/Paleo option if you don't eat the bread. We also had their banana bread, which was really good - it wasn't able to take pictures of it since we demolished it pretty quickly. I highly recommend any bakery items. It's a very family friendly affair as we saw large families with numerous children coming in and you can have a place to let the dogs run in the small field front of the restaurant. I saw a lot of other families is bringing their dogs out onto the patio portion of the restaurant. Overall, the ambience is very family friendly and I would definitely come back here again for a chill morning brunch. Note that they close at 1 PM for brunch! Warning: that there's a limited parking so you need to get there early! They will have a traffic mediator once it's full
