    Potatoes
    ryan d.

    It was an amazing experience! I tried their strawberry French toast, and our waiter was excellent! She served food on time, and when my friend said that the potatoes were slightly burnt(said it kindly) she immediately replaced it with new ones! The place was a modern feeling, and slightly crowded, since it was Easter Week for Christians. Would definitely come back here again

    Omelette

    My favorite place for breakfast and brunch. I probably tried all their omelette and they are all great. Today I ordered "the works" and it did not disappoint. My friend had the Turkey Sandwich and she liked it too. Server was very nice and came to our table checked on us a few times. Many people. I really like this place. Forgot taking menu pictures.

    I came around 10:15 am on Friday for brunch. We got seated right away. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating. Very bright inside and great atmosphere for brunch. Ordered a seasonal item - donut holes to share. I got the egg Benedict and my husband got the biscuits and gravy. I love what I ordered, the potatoes were very tasty also.

    Sat quickly on a Friday brunch hour. Iced coffee was better than expected at a sit down restaurant. Seasonal plates and drinks offered. Everything fresh and delicious. Easy to pay at the table with a QR code on the receipt.

    I was seated right away. The waiter was very friendly she even recommended items to choose from the menu. It was a very quiet environment. The food came out hot and quick.

    I usually always grab breakfast here on the weekend during my visits and I recommend that you get there early and put your name in bc it gets very busy. The hosts are fairly friendly and will grab your phone number. You also pay up front when you are done with your meal. The restaurant is efficient but also makes you feel like it's every other chain because it is. The menu has a nice rotating menu as well as a traditional menu that has an assortment for everyone. The servers are generally nice as well and the food comes out consistently well. I will continue to come here for a nice breakfast with family and friends

    WAIT TIME- We went here on Saturday for brunch. We got on the online waitlist before we left the house, and then we waited for about 15min upon arrival. PARKING- The restaurant is near Target and a bunch of other stores, so the parking lot is huge. We didn't have any trouble finding a spot. ATMOSPHERE- It was crowded but that's expected on the weekend. It wasn't too loud, we had plenty of space at and around our table. SERVICE- Everyone who worked there was friendly and professional. Our server gave us a carafe of water so we didn't have to wait for refills. The manager rang us up at the end and he was so funny and nice. FOOD- The food was delicious! My partner got one of the breakfast burritos (pictured) and loved it. I ordered a cinnamon crunch latte (not pictured), which was super sweet and dessert-like but good. I also had an omelet (pictured) and it was amazing!! We also ordered the donuts (pictured) but were so full, we ended up taking them home and they were still excellent.

    Carnitas Breakfast Burrito with cajun chicken instead of carnitas - picture taken after I ate over half of it.  It is huge!

They had a nice pastry assortment as well that we will have to try next time!

    The shop itself is a former home-turned café/shop. So, parking here is very limited and very tight…read more While I could have fitted my car in one of the spaces, the two cars on either side were too close to the parking lines for my comfort so I parked across the street at the bank and walked over. When you enter, it's very small but very well put together décor wise. Each area had signs that discouraged movement of their furniture and had its own kind of theme. I was meeting up with a friend and her daughter and unfortunately did not realize they had the typical café hours (closed at 2pm) so my visit was very quick (30 minutes) and I had to rush my conversation. I ordered an iced Monstera Mint latte and chocolate coffee cake slice. When the barista called up my order, I repeated my order asking if it's mine (they don't use a name system) and apparently *I* mispronounced MONSTERA because she turned her back and said within earshot to her coworker how I did not pronounce it correctly and why do people say it incorrectly. I am not a big plant person so excuse me for not knowing how every single plant name is pronounced. I know people vent at work, but it made me feel uncomfortable the rest of my visit, so I was glad it was almost time to leave before they closed. Vent after customers leave if you have to.... Anyways, my MONSTER-AH mint latte was good, but the chocolate coffee cake was a bit too dry for me. And service could have been a bit more professional in my opinion.

The rich creaminess and unique flavor of the Provel shines since the crust is so thin, which is the beauty of this style of pie so to me, this was excellent.

The place itself had a very clean and modern look but still felt casual. Food was very heavy but they do have lighter options; I just wanted to try some St Louis staples.

I was surprised to see it tucked away in the strip and had it not been for the sign, I def would have missed it. When I first walked in, I was greeted immediately and shown to a table. I happened to be one of five people there (2 couples), so it's nice to know there are other early risers like myself. Prior to coming, I looked at the menu online so I'd have an idea of what I wanted once I went. I stuck with water and got the scrambled combo with cheddar, spinach, and green peppers. It also comes with potatoes and your choice of toast, a biscuit, or an English muffin. I got the sourdough toast. One of the plus sides to being an early riser is that the places you go aren't packed, which means you'll get your food quicker. Mine came out in record timing (then again it helps when you're 1 of 5 people there, 4 of which already have their food). The first couple bites were meh. Once I sprinkled salt and pepper, it was like the eggs and potatoes came to life! The toast was as I expected (good), then again, I have yet to taste sourdough that wasn't good. Overall, my server was kind and attentive. The vibe of the restaurant was as quiet and cozy, then then again, it could have been the fact that his was 8:15 am. Regardless, I liked it enough to want to return!

    Food is always fresh and good and reasonably priced. They could use one more server to help out.read more

Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark. The short rib risotto was swimming in gravy and under-seasoned, and the potstickers weren't up to their usual standard. They had much less slaw than normal, and the texture felt overcooked and tougher than expected. That said, our server, the margarita, Nightjar Old Fashioned, barbacoa quesadillas, and tempura were all excellent. What surprised me most, was walking into both the tasting room / restaurant entrance and seeing it filled with boxes and inventory. I've never seen that at a CH property before. It made for a poor first impression here, and really took away from the overall experience. It left me wondering why management hasn't found a better way to handle inventory before service or keep it out of guest-facing spaces.
