I've had this place on my radar for quite a while, so we stopped in on a sunny Saturday morning before heading to the Royal Oak Farmers Market, which is just a short away. They have a bunch of cute outdoor seating, so we asked to sit out there. Rachel was our server and she was great - very friendly and attentive! I ordered the Avocado Scramble, but I made a couple of modifications. Unfortunately they forgot to address them, but Rachel took care of that right away and the dish was very good. My wife had the Eggs Benedict, her favorite breakfast dish. She said it was very good and she particularly liked the potatoes that came with it. One final note (and this was not reflected in my rating): the seating in the outdoor section is pretty tight and a couple with a large dog was seated next to us. I'm not a big fan of people bringing dogs to restaurants, but if they are well behaved, I can deal with it. Unfortunately, at one point this dog got excited by a dog coming by on the sidewalk and jumped up and started barking at the others dog, just inches away from me. It was quite startling and its owner was not particularly apologetic. With such a confined space, I think this establishment may want to reconsider whether it allows dogs in their outdoor seating area. read more

We were seated immediately on a friday evening and enjoyed the baked goat cheese appetizer. I ordered the chicken parmesan, which was tasty and the portion was huge, so had leftovers to take home. We will definitely return in the future. The reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because we were put at a table in the middle of the room and there were several very loud tables behind us, which detracted some from the experience. The restaurant has some acoustic panels on the ceiling but should consider adding more. I could barely hear my companion across the table from me but could hear literally every word from some loud woman behind me (I recognize that the restaurant can't control the volume of their customers but they can, I believe, do a bit more to reduce this issue). The cocktail menu looked interesting too and the steak and frites looked very tasty. In the future, I think I will just try to request one of the tables along the edge of the room, as I think it may not be quite so loud. read more

Been meaning to try this place for quite some time, but have not been able to find nearby parking. Today I was lucky enough to find convenient parking, so tried it for breakfast. Ambiance: Nice. Casual with a tiniest bit of upscale. Nice buildout. Service: very friendly. Had the feel of a neighborhood place with better trained serves. Food: Very good! Menu has a very wide selection, but not too many items to make your head spin. Everything was properly cooked. They have an interesting lunch and dinner menu too. I will definitely be back, parking permitted. read more

Great food, good service and very nice restaurant. We were in Royal Oak and decided to stop by to get some lunch since this place had good reviews which after going there I understand why the reviews were good. We got the chicken mushroom risotto which was awesome and chicken tenders. I highly recommend you give this place a try. read more

Delicious food and cozy atmosphere. Great and quick service for groups. The savory brunch items are my favorite -- the ranchero bowl with chorizo is amazing!! And the potatoes are a perfect crisp though soft!! Delicious!! read more

My husband and I visited The Fourth street in Royal Oak. When we arrived, there was a short wait, but we decided to sit at the bar, and it was no more than 10 minutes. The staff and the manager were incredibly friendly. Our food came out quickly, and I noticed a lot of people ordering their signature chocolate martinis, but I opted for a Bloody Mary. It was like a salad in a glass:)! The food portions were just right for me, though my husband, who usually eats a bit more, found them a little on the small side. Still, everything tasted great, and the atmosphere was friendly. The only hiccup was parking--it's a bit tricky to find a spot, so we had to maneuver around a bit. Overall, Ill recommend visiting. read more

Today was our first time trying this place. I ordered the basic egg breakfast, my fiancé ordered the chicken and waffles, and we split the stuffed french toast. We enjoyed every bite and happily took home what we couldn't finish. Our server was very kind, although I waited an oddly long time for my toast to come out, which them my eggs were cold by the time it came out, but the fresh eggs were made very quickly. Overall, we look forward to returning for lunch to try the baked goat cheese! read more

Patio seating, bar seats since the original Inn Season and more dining area in the adjacent building. Decent layout and looks fresh and new. We were unfortunately seated at one of the three two-tops in the main walkway to the kitchen and dining areas. We were bombarded with staff and guests on Molly was supposed to be waiting on us, but another waitress ended up waiting on us instead. Ok. Ordered green tea, black coffee, avocado scrambler with added mushrooms, whole grain toast, Super Bowl, added blueberries, cinnamon raisin toast, added cream cheese and side of turkey sausage. $58.96 They ran out of oat milk and have no flavored creamers, we were told they are basic here. The black coffee was okay, not exactly what my husband was hoping for this morning. My Tazo green tea was quite weak and tasted like water. Should have been a bag for a cup and not steeped in the pot, was too watered down. Quite relaxed here. One staffer was drinking Mimosa at the bar, while the bartender was eating a plate of food at the bar socializing with a customer and a colleague. My husband didn't like their whole grain toast much, didn't eat more than a bite. The whole top of the toast was burnt. The Super Bowl was okay, the fruit was nice. The avocado scramble was good with added mushrooms. The cinnamon raisin under the sweets on the menu is not a side of cinnamon toast as I was hoping for, it's a full on brunch meal of cinnamon raisin French toast. My eyes went wide as she placed it on the table. The cream cheese was softened too, not what I wanted either. I think the menu needs to he updated to reflect it's a French toast and not a side of toast at all. Don't order on the fly and look at the menu closely and don't feel rushed to order. read more

Pains me to write this but we have enjoyed dining here multiple times, enough to drive across town to do so regularly. The food is great and consistent -- the servers generally friendly. But today was a true disappointment. There were several up-charges on our bill (of over $120) where they charged for multiple items without adequate disclosure and when we brought this to the attention of the manager: his response was: like it or lump it.So basically the message conveyed was this establishment has absolutely no interest working with (repeat) customers to ensure a happy and satisfying dining experience. We hope that failing to adjust the $13 at issue was worth leaving a bad taste in our mouths. We cannot imagine a restaurant can develop the much needed loyal following necessary for longevity and long term success with this type of disappointing attitude. Also: CHECK YOUR BILL. (Not that it will really matter anyway but at least you'll know what kind of place this is.) read more

Stopped in to meet a friend for a Sunday Bloody Mary. Sat at the bar and was a really nice bar, atmosphere was nice, menu looked good. Not an inexpensive place but I would for sure some back in some time for breakfast. Bloody Mary was pricey but very nice. I would recommend it this place but it is not big inside so there may be a wait. read more

This easily has become one of our favorite spots. It's a nice, quaint and neighborhood feeling restaurant. The service is some of the best we have ever experienced where the servers take the time to recognize you even if you've only been there once before. They also anticipate everything you might need before you need it. Can't say enough about the service. And the food is delicious. We can't brunch anywhere else now. Everything we try is a hit. Seriously the biggest gem of Royal Oak and we are certain we'll be back time and time again! read more

I brought a large group to this cute little restaurant for a monthly lunch club I host at work. I called in advance to see if they could reserve a spot for us and they agreed. I had something unavoidable come up and had to postpone for a week and I totally forgot to call the restaurant. I felt awful and really didn't want to call after the fact but they were so nice and of course reserved our spot for us the following week which was amazing since they don't do reservations normally. I'm so glad we went because all 25 people loved their food and the service. We had everything from oatmeal to a monte Christo sandwich. A really nice selection of food without being overwhelming with a huge menu. Will definitely be back. read more

I went here with my wife and another couple and we sat on the patio outside on a great June evening. The restaurant is stylish and trendy. It used to be a vegan place called the Inn Season which was good but would have been great if it wasn't vegan. They've changed the style from what I remember and it looks great! We each had a cocktail and they were really good. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced, thank you for that! Service was friendly and very attentive. It's definitely on our list to go back. read more

Great food, great service, they really made this place look great and more inviting than its previous occupancy. Very clean, yet welcoming, love the light fixtures, curtains and large amounts of natural light. I had the eggs Benedict and it was an absolute delight to eat. The potato's stood out as much as the Benedict itself, the coffee tasty and quickly refilled. Come check them out. read more

I love the chicken piccata and chicken masala for dinner. Their goat cheese appetizer is one of my favorites. Friendly service a lovely atmosphere. read more

Cute place that's a mix of fine dining and diner. It's owned by Col of Col's and a lot of his favorites are on the menu. We had a great dinner here and really enjoyed it. Having said that, we really miss Inn Season too. It's a very nice venue as well, and the service is excellent. Give it a try, it's interesting. read more

We enjoyed a lovely brunch at this newer cafe (formerly Season's Cafe) a few weeks ago. The building and decor are classy-reminds me of places we've enjoyed in NYC. We had attentive and very pleasant service on a busy Sunday around noon. Two of us enjoyed omelets while the other ordered corned beef hash . Everything was hot, prettily plated and flavorful. Did not get pics of my dates plates, but my spinach and feta omelet is posted for consideration. They also offer nice looking cocktails but we stuck to coffee. This time. Will return! read more

What a nice addition to the Royal Oak food scene. This place was thoughtfully designed, comfortable seating, lots of space. The atmosphere is casual and conversational. We had the most charming little waitress who was outgoing and almost excited to work there which shows that the management staff there must be very good. We both ordered the Monte Cristo, it was delicious it was definitely bang for the buck and all of the other food that we were spying look just as good. I will be back to try the rest. The whole menu LOL. read more

Came here Sunday for brunch and this is now one of my favorite go to spots! The inside has an inviting ambiance with lots of natural lighting and cute decor, and overall felt cozy. Super friendly staff. The brunch menu had an impressive amount of options but we settled on the veggie omelette with egg whites (the feta in the middle is delicious) and the Mexican Bowl which was bursting with flavor from the chorizo. The potatoes in the bowl were one of the best things we ate, as they were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Highly recommend for a solid breakfast spot and will definitely be back to try the dinner. read more

The restaurant is beautiful and bright love the light and airy feeling. We were greeted with a smile and lead to our table as soon as we walked in. Our goat cheese app was Amazing! Unfortunately the goat cheese was our second choice as they were out of the calamari early on a Saturday. Our waiter was not great. He didn't mention there were specials, he forgot we ordered a second round of of wine, he started to take away my 1/2 full glass of wine away when he was clearing my dinner plate that I had to ask him to remove. He also never asked us if we wanted dessert. As for my dinner, my Bucatini ala vodka which I added chicken to, it was just okay and kinda bland. I'd like to go back and try their brunch and hopefully give them a better review. Fingers crossed that I also get a better waitperson next time. read more

Started coming here because the reviews on Royal Oak eats and Facebook were blowing up. Went with my girlfriend and amazing. Had breakfast the eggs and bacon are so wonderful and the potatoes they serve you have to get. The food is so good and fresh. The portions are wonderful. service is excellent. The waitresses and waiters are very on top of everything. The place is really cute and cozy. It is a corner location, lots of windows there's outdoor seating. Enjoy! read more

Food was very well made. I went there for both brunch and dinner, and it was excellent both times! My first time there, I was served by a lovely waitress who had no qualms discussing the menu with me and suggesting popular items. The restaurant has a very calming atmosphere as well. It feels very welcoming, and all the employees are very friendly! I've already gone twice, once on a date and once with family. I have two younger siblings (6 & 4 years old), and our waitress was very sweet with them, even when they were rowdy. read more

Such a neighborhood jem! The food is always high quality. I got the breakfast taco thinking it would taste like any other ones I've had, but the flavors were much better! The ambiance is like a fancy bistro, and the christmas decorations make the environment even more warm and inviting. The menu is pricey though, but I think worth it for a fancier brunch. read more

i just wonder if I ate at the same place the 4 and 5 star reviewers did. Service was not an issue. Food is another story. Baked Goat cheese with "crostini". Bread was not toasted, no olive oil just sliced bread. We had the steak bites. Overdone totally. Onion rings were cold. Yes, cold. They looked good enough to eat just a shame they were cold. My friend ordered a drink that was to have a sugar rim. It did not. Not a big deal I know but it was not as described on the menu. First time here and really hoping to have an experience that would bring me back. Sadly this did not. Oh yeah, we mentioned our concerns to our server who only said she'll let them know. Alrighty then! read more

Today was my first time visiting this restaurant for brunch and I absolutely loved it. It is very charmingly decorated on the inside. Due to the beautiful weather, the outside tables were full, but I prefer indoor seating anyway, so that was fine by me. I had the avocado scramble minus the onions, with a side of sausage links. I also had the wheat toast with butter & marmalade. The avocado could have been a little more ripe, but that's not necessarily the restaurant's fault - avocados are notoriously difficult that way! Still, the scramble was absolutely delicious. I would go back and I would get this dish again. read more

I've been going to this restaurant since it first opened and it's a decent option. I normally sit at the bar when I eat, and have noticed that there is a different bar tender every since time (which I don't like), and the service at the bar is EXTREMELY slow. The last time I was there, a customer walked in, and waited for at least 5 minutes and then got up and left because nobody was tending to him. On that same day, I also waited at least 7 minutes to just get a menu. Also the bartender left dishes piled up at the bar after I finished eating (which is a pet peeve of mine...who wants to see dirty plates in front of them! haha) I think if the bar tenders were more consistent, or there was one additional person it would make the customer experience, and attention to detail much better. The service quality is the worst thing about this place, but the food is actually decent. The menu has changed a bit, and some of my favorite items (crawfish cavatappi and risotti) have been eliminated, but there are still a few good options. I like their salad, but wish they used shredded or shaved parm for their salads, instead of grated. The brunch menu is probably their best food in my opinion. The brunch menu has several nice options, and enough variety that everyone will probably find something they like. The ambience is very cute, and good for a date experience. In general I like this place, and want to like it more (bc I live nearby), but I have slowed down visiting due to the service quality. Hopefully they will find a good rhythm as they grow read more

Fantastic new addition to Royal Oak. Off the beaten path on Fourth Street. Great open, stylish atmosphere and yes, outdoor seating as well. Highly recommend the French Onion and Chicken dumpling soup! The vegetable stir fry (we added shrimp) was large and delicious!
