I believe they have another section for larger groups, but I havent been to that side. The food itself is very good. I am not much of a breakfast person, but I was satisfied with my Sweet Croffle and my boyfriend enjoyed his Spicy Crispy Chicken. My cousin wasn't too impressed with the salad, so I would recommend trying something aside from salads if you are looking for flavorful items. The star of the show for me is a Mango Passion Fruit drink. It is so delicious! My boyfriend and I have to pace ourselves from chugging the entire thing before the food arrives. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for a nice brunch. I wish they stayed open later, but I will definitely return to try more of the menu.

Met some friends for brunch at Taste & Glory. I missed that they have a parking lot in the back,…read morebut it was easy enough to find street parking. You can tell they get very busy on weekends and they don't take weekend reservations. We got there around 10:30, and it did take a few minutes to get seated since we had a group of 5. I really enjoyed the Tom Yum scramble, but if I ordered it again, I'd ask for it without cheese since I didn't think the cheese really added anything to it. (I feel weird saying that since I love cheese!) The croissant that came with it was good. My friends liked the pancakes, the chicken croffle, and the udon. I got the house coffee which was fine, but folks seemed to enjoy the ube lattes (though said they were a little sweet). Service was very nice. I do think even with them being busy, I didn't get the sense they were trying to push us out the door when we were done. This is a cute place, lots of close tables though so not where I'd go for a quiet conversation.

My friend ordered the root beer float with cold brew ice cubes. It was not super heavy, it mixed well, and somehow, the root beer tasted great with the subtle but noticeable coffee flavor. For my drink, I got two shots of espresso. I just needed a quick pick me up! For food, my friend got the chicken tortilla soup. It was absolutely delicious. The shredded chicken and the broth were wonderful, I do wish it had less tortilla strips because they soaked up all the broth if left there for too long. I got the California bagel, which was also delicious. It was a little too much egg for my liking, but the bagel was only $12 which I think is decent for what I got. The Strawberry croissant was TO DIE FOR. I have never enjoyed a croissant as much as this one. Fresh strawberry cream inside, super fluffy and crispy croissant overall. LOVE! Not to mention the cafe is very chic, we sat at a table where we could maximize our sunlight exposure. The servers and cashiers were nice, welcoming, and helpful. So glad we came here!

My favorite apple fritters ever! These fritters are mega giant and can be easily shared with 2 or…read moreeven 3 people... that is, if there's even anything left! I've tried the original apple fritter, blueberry, and raspberry. They all have that delicious crisp exterior and super fluffy interior, without being dense. I also appreciated that they were not overly sweet, which is oftentimes hard to find in donuts. I still prefer the original apple fritter, but was surprised that I enjoyed the raspberry one quite a bit! There's a big ol dollop of raspberry jam in the middle, and streaks of raspberry throughout the fritter itself. The best thing about these fritters is that they're still delicious the following day. I went a little crazy with ordering and had plenty of leftovers. I popped them into the toaster and they were still pretty decent. The parking lot is tiny and so if you're here on the weekends, you'll likely need to wait for someone to leave. There's usually also a long line as well. Since I'm not in the area, I prefer to just order ahead online for a pickup order. The pickup orders are in a separate line inside the restaurant.

They have a lot of fun drink options and are known for their fritters, although I didn't get one this time. I went with the chorizo breakfast burrito instead, which was huge! Not spicy and filled with a a nice texture from the hashbrowns and eggs. Really generous portions, filling, and delicious. Great spot if you are around the area

Check...can't tell you how many places can't get this basic right. Eggs and bacon cooked properly? Check Hashbrowns perfectly crisp on the outside and soft and buttery on the inside? Check I always leave feeling so satisfied and happy. Can't put a price on that. I also love their system of ordering first and then finding a seat. Very efficient and much appreciated. Also appreciate them keeping a nice and clean restaurant. No frills place, but very comfortable. Such a joy to keep coming back :)

Nothing missed, but I loved the pistachio/raspberry croissant the most. It was tangy and not too sweet, which can be the case for many raspberry and pistachio pastries. Rarer still is when both flavors come through and don't overpower each other. The only thing that I didn't love was the coffee but it's hard to be a barista and a pastry chef. I didn't come for coffee so I'm not going to knock them for it.

We'll definitely keep coming back.

The prosciutto and fig jam toast stands out to me because the saltiness of the prosciutto is balanced with the sweetness of the fig jam. The cafe uses ACME Sour Bâtard for their toasts, so quality of the bread is superb. The matcha rose latte was really good, I asked for less sweet, which I prefer, and the drink wasn't bitter because of the adjustment. The waffle sampler was a sweet treat to share. The strawberry ricotta was my favorite, the fruit was perfectly ripe and a touch of honey for some natural sweetness for the waffle. The ambience is super cute and great for IG pictures.
