Elise Cuisine was absolutely wonderful. The food is delicious and clearly made with clean, quality ingredients. We ordered the pancakes, the Elise sandwich, and the buffalo chicken sandwich, and every single dish was a hit. My husband and kids were raving about how good everything tasted. The environment was clean and welcoming, and the staff was incredibly friendly, making it a truly family-friendly spot. The best part, though, is knowing that the food is prayed over daily -- that intentional care and love really shows in the experience. We'll definitely be back! read more

1. Atmospheres Really nice. Small but clean and fresh. Workers are friendly too. But plates were kind of dirty, water stains on the cups and utensils. 2. Coffee Coffee was my favorite. The cortado was especially good! 3. Food The food was really good overall, too. One issue is that Avocado toast do not use Sourdough although the menu says it is. I wish them to fix the menu because sourdough and white-bread aren't the same. Overall, nice little cafe. Drink is recommended, menu description can improve as their hygiene. read more

This restaurant was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, all the workers were so nice and welcoming, and the whole feel of the restaurant was perfect. We came for a quick trip to San Antonio and this was genuinely the best food we've had so far- if we ever come back we'll definitely return here!!! read more

This location is in a shared plaza with lots of parking. It has a smallish eating area but you walk up to the counter to order and then they will bring it out to you. The service at the counter was good. It was awesome to see a lot of gluten free and dairy free items. I was super excited to have gluten free chicken and waffle as I haven't had that in years. My husband got a vegan waffle and an omelet with a piece of carrot cake. The location has high ceilings and is pretty and open. The food came out at different times so my husband had to wait a bit for his waffle after his omelet arrived. The gluten free chicken and waffle was really good. I did have a bit of sticker shock when we paid. read more

Found this place on a whim when we didn't have a breakfast spot picked out. GREAT for us gluten free folks! Can get a little busy which we saw towards the end of our dining there. They aren't a huge establishment but spacious enough for about 10 groups or couples. Anyhow, the real star is how much they offer that is gluten free and how friendly their service is! I was very pleased with the price for the size of the dishes. I mean you get a gluten free Belgian waffle with berries (if you add them) and two HUGE fried chicken tenders. Oh, and the fresh squeezed OJ is delicious! Plenty of parking reserved for that strip mall versus YMCA so no issues there. read more

Y'all need to stop sleeping on this place! It's healthy, delicious, and so completely wholesome! Went in with some coworkers to have breakfast while discussing upcoming tasks at work. On the drive in, we say Black Bear, IHOP, and Cracker Barrel packed and people waiting out in the cold. We drove up to Elise Cuisine and it was EMPTY! No 40+ minute wait for a seat. It smelled delicious and food was reasonably priced. The ambiance of this little cafe was so relaxing and filled with kindness, there was even a well-loved Bible open to the book of Psalms with handwritten notes about discernment! The food? Nothing short of delicious! All three of us ate every bite of food on our plates and one of us even took a slice of carrot cake to go for an afternoon office snack. The Elise sandwich and the mushroom spinach soup were healthy and perfectly filling. One of my coworkers had the Elise Breakfast, which included soy-chorizo that she said was surprisingly good for a plant-based meat alternative. We all agreed that the potatoes were delicious. Stop sleeping on this cute little restaurant. The staff are warm and welcoming and the whole place is full of love and blessings, from wall to wall. read more

Stopping in for breakfast, I start off by ordering a London Fog tea then add the pecan French toast and the veggie omelet with side potatoes, fruit and toast. The London Fog is delicious and hits the spot while waiting for my meal. When the food arrives and smells appetizing. The French toast was a nice golden brown and after adding some butter and syrup it didn't last long. The mix of the pecans with the syrup was a nice surprise. At this point I order a Chai tea latte and that was also very tasty. Next, the veggie omelet was also perfectly made with a mix of spinach, mushrooms, tomato, onions, and cheese that all blended together to provide a great flavor profile. The toast was nice and golden brown, and the fruit was fresh and juicy. Overall, I really like the freshness of all the ingredients used and the quality of the food that comes out so I will be back to try more of the menu. read more

The place is a gem. Focused mainly on vegetarian but you have options even if you are not. The service is fast yet the food is so fresh. Good quality food and tastes so good. I had the Elise sandwich and parfait and latte. Everything was great. The atmosphere is very suitable for breakfast/brunch. read more

We tried this place out because a co-worker described the place as being scrumptious. The menu states it is not certified gluten-free. But they do have several gluten free breakfast options such as a Belgian of waffle, chicken and waffles, pancakes, French toast, and oatmeal of course. The lunch menu has very few gluten free options. It looks like just the salads and the chicken fingers are labeled as GF. MOst of the rest of the lunch menu is non gluten free sandwiches and bread based options. The place is brand new and just opened and it has a little bit of the sterile feel to it, but in a few weeks, I'm sure it will feel much more homey inside. I ordered the gluten free vanilla Belgian waffle with a hazenut Chai latte and my husband ordered the biscuit, egg and cheese biscuit with Turkey bacon added. The waffle was incredible, better than some non-gf waffles I've had at other restaurants. And the chai latte was also delicious. My husband enjoyed his generous portioned sandwich. It had nice flavor, and was cooked well. The biscuit was light and fluffy despite being vegan. Overall, we agree with the coworker, this place was scrumptious. I would like to see more GF options for lunch. But, for a good price, good food, and friendly people this is worth coming back for breakfast. Get it before they get too busy though, as the restaurant only seats about 36 people. :) read more

So disappointed to start my morning off like this. 1st of all , We sat at the table, did not know we had to pay at the counter. We had to get our own silverware at the side of door , no napkins , we had to use paper towels as well . Tables are so small and I ordered pancakes , turkey bacon and eggs for myself and my Husband , food was horrible and over priced , we also had to ask for Butter for our Pancakes and it was hard as a rock ! $50.00 was the cost for breakfast ! This was the first time here and certainly will not be returning ! read more

I live nearby, and finally decided to stop in for lunch. This spot is hidden away in a strip center across from the YMCA. It's actually really cute inside with more tables than you'd expect! The menu is pretty extensive- lots of sandwiches, brunch, and salads to choose from. I got a sandwich with a side of fruit and arugula salad. The sandwich was excellent! I wasn't a big fan of the salad, as the dressing didn't taste quite right. I would definitely consider coming back to try the brunch menu. read more

So very disappointed with the cleanliness. Just watched the person wipe tables down and just wipe food and trash to the floor. Cleaned one counter of dishes and left the food droppings on the bar. Waited 30 minutes for our meal. The French toast was great. The fresh squeezed orange juice was wonderful Just wish they did better with cleaning because it makes you wonder about the cleaning in the back too Told owner about it and she didn't seem too concerned. read more

This was a very cute place we visited recently through recommendations. The place was very clean and the people were friendly. The place is small with few tables and can imagine them getting crowded easily. They also offer some good vegan options here. We came at a time when there weren't many folks here and found a table easy (was around 1pm). They do cook the food fresh, so expect to wait a bit before you get your stuff. Ours took around 15-20 minutes to come out. I had ordered migas con huevo, and it tasted great. Mine had peppers, tomatoes, onions , and a good amount of cheese. I did try it with the salsa given and gave it some good flavors. The other sauce was actually jelly, which was amazing! I was dipping my toast in it and wish I could have taken the jelly to go. Potatoes were alright, but the salsa made them taste better. My brother ordered vegan pancakes, and it looked very pretty. It has a lot of fruit on top of it and the pancakes tasted good too. I would even order it again, though I wish they offered vegan butter with it. The waffles my mom ordered were decent as well but not much special to them. Overall, it was a great experience and would absolutely come back here. It is a bit pricey though and closes early (around 3:30pm) so be aware. read more

Food is ok. Not sure what the hype is. Service was super bad. The kitchen crew seemed unhappy serving the food and when you ask for something it feels like they're inconvenienced by the ask. It was my first time will not come back. I barely give anyone bad review if at least food is good and delicious I would have overlooked the bad service but neither was pleasing. read more

Awesome staff. I had chicken and waffles and I can say it's one of the better pieces of chicken I've had. Not to much batter, seasoned well and good portions. The waffles... ehhh. They must have used pancake batter. My daughter had the vegan biscuits and gravy. While not a biscuit person, she said it was one of the best biscuits she has had. The gravy.... I know it's hard to make a good vegan gravy, but not impossible. She could taste the flour, which means it's under cooked. I told them it was my daughter's birthday and they gave her a huge slice of a carrot spice cake... awesomeness! I might have to eat some more when she isn't looking. Price point was fair and while seating was limited, not impossible to get a place. Again, staff was friendly and welcoming. I would/will go again. read more

What a nice little spot! The minute we walked in, we were greeted by the cooks and the counter (even if it was 8:00 on Black Friday). The cashier asked if this was our first time here and welcomed us. I had the sourdough French toast and turkey sausage (no pork served here) and they were both delicious. The maple butter sauce really made the French toast. The gingerbread latte was delicious! I loved how it was served in a mason jar. It just elevated my drink. The only reason why I gave this establishment 4 stars is because their juice is bottled, not fresh squeezed or served in a glass. You will need to go up to the counter to order and you get your own utensils at the condiment bar, but they will take your food to you. This small business supports their faith (Christian?) and says a little prayer over each order that goes out. They don't push their religion, but sometimes that might make people feel uncomfortable. All in all, this small business is definitely a place to check out! read more

This place was small and cozy, I ordered the avocado toast which was a big portion and very delicious! I also ordered an iced coffee which was so bland, so bitter and honestly one of the worst coffees I ever tasted. I asked for 2 raw sugars to see if that would help and they only brought me one since they had them behind the counter. Which I thought was a little bizarre and had to annoyingly ask again for another one but it's fine. The French toast was flavorful and the berries were fresh and sweet! I'd come back for the food but I would just avoid the coffee. read more

Amazing Food and Friendly service at a great price! Loved the pancakes and waffles! Hibiscus tea was exceptional!

A solid 4: Food was a 5, service was a 4, price was a 3, and the coffee was a 2. The food was delicious: fresh quality ingredients very well-prepared makes Elise definitely worth a return trip. The price was a little high, and an upcharge to have double potatoes, rather than another side choice, was puzzling. The $11 for a piece of carrot cake was also a bit surprising. The coffee was both bitter and sour. That being said, it was very busy and people clearly like what they're getting. read more

The staff were attentive and the food came out quickly but it was just ok. I ordered vegan French toast it was dry and slightly burnt on one side as the sourdough slices were regular sandwich bread slices so kinda thin for French toast. The breakfast potatoes were cut larger than I'd have liked and although I could see the seasoning added after cooking they were bland. The vegan sausage patty was a basic morning star patty. They advertised a hot orange ginger turmeric tea but that was unavailable so I had fresh OJ instead. It's a cozy space but is excessively religious in decor. read more

Arrived on a Saturday around 1pm, small seating area, but we're lucky that there were extra room for 3! I got the Chicken Pesto Sandwich, which I enjoyed, and my son liked the chicken too. For 14 bucks, it's good for having 2 sides and felt like portion was pretty decent. The soup of the day was salty for us though. Chicken and waffles were okay, chicken was a bit tough for my son. Elise smoothie was made fresh! No substitutions. Ordered at around 115, got our food at 145. Service was great! Everyone was nice. read more

My favorite restaurant is a small, local restaurant. There's always a little charm to it. The food is always made with care and it always seems healthier. This is this type of restaurant. I went for lunch thinking I was going to get breakfast, but ended up getting a sandwich instead. My friend and I did share a waffle as dessert. I got the chicken pesto sandwich, but made it vegetarian. I don't know exactly what made it vegetarian besides removing the chicken. I will say I expected a substitution for it besides more arugula since it was pricier. Regardless, it was delicious. The portion was big enough to take half of it home. You get a choice of two sides. I decided to continue being a little healthier and got the side salad and the lentil soup. The lentil soup is one of the best lentil soups I've had. Great flavor. I could've eaten a bowl of lentil soup for lunch and been satisfied. The salad is arugula with some quinoa and a vinaigrette. The waffle comes with a dusting of powdered sugar. Waffle was delicious. Great dessert for us. I did notice they have a case of desserts. I was too full to try any. I did try the London fog tea. Since it was a hot summer day, I got it are iced. Loved it. The staff was friendly. The restaurant is small. Seating was almost full when I arrived on a Wednesday at lunch. I did notice that they were able to reserve a table for a big party coming in. Not sure if they do that often. Parking is available on site, but shared with the other businesses. Parking won't be an issue read more

My wife and I decided to try this place as it is 5 minutes from our house and the 38 Yelpers who rated it a 5 star establishment. It's a small restaurant located right off 151 in the same parking lot as Mays YMCA and next to Ginza! When you walk in it's very welcoming and cozy. Smells of fresh brewed coffee and delicious food but you don't leave smelling like food! You order at the register and sit anywhere and they bring it all to you. The lady at the register is very helpful and pleasant. It is made to order so it takes about 10 - 15 minutes to come out. My wife had pancakes with blueberries, scrambled eggs. I had the Turkey and Gouda omelette that comes with two sides ( fruit and potatoes for me). My wife enjoyed her pancakes and eggs (seasoned lightly) a lot. Only recommendation is to give more syrup with the order. The omelette is a two egg omelette that has the turkey cooked into the egg and a small slice of Gouda on top ( perfect for me as I don't like too much cheese). The potatoes are seasoned lightly with a homemade seasoning, the fruit was very good and sweet. Alarmist for got the drinks. Americano coffee for me ( strong the way I like it) and Earl grey tea for my wife. The coffee is good and strong but they can lighten it if you choose. They also have cappuccino, expresó, and lattes. They also make fresh artisan desert and cheese bread. Overall I enjoyed my visit and will be back again. I also ordered Chicken and waffles to go for my little girl ( took a little time to get it though). Only reason for one star being removed is how long it took to get some of my food. read more
