    Tucked inside the ever-bustling Cimarron Plaza, The Grove Brunch Café feels like the kind of place that gets brunch on a higher level -- equal parts aesthetic, intentional, and flavorful. I stopped by post-workout and ordered a to-go meal, but couldn't resist starting with their Butterfly Tea Latte (unsweetened). It's visually stunning -- a dreamy bluish-violet hue that looks almost too pretty to sip -- and surprisingly balanced, earthy, and light. Think matcha's sophisticated cousin with antioxidant flair. I also tried the Healthy Asian Salad, and let's just say it truly lives up to its name -- maybe too much. I'm a self-proclaimed health junkie, but this one felt like foraging directly from the sea. Gigantic leafy greens, earthy mushrooms, some kind of seaweed situation... it was fresh, yes, but I found myself feeling like I was eating straight out of the ocean. Admirably wholesome, just not my jam. Next time, I've got my eye on their vegan bowl, which looks much more my speed. The menu overall is impressively expansive, thoughtfully inclusive of vegan and vegetarian options, and brimming with what I'd call "elevated casual" plates. My waitress was fantastic -- warm, attentive, and effortlessly cool -- matching the vibey energy of the space itself. The interior is chic yet inviting, with indoor and outdoor seating perfect for El Paso's sunny brunch culture. If there's one thing that surprises me, it's the hours. For such a popular, food-forward plaza, closing at 4 p.m. feels almost criminal -- those folks with 9-to-5s can only dream of a late-day Grove fix. Still, when you do catch them open, it's a genuinely delightful spot that makes brunch feel intentional rather than routine.

    This review has been suiting in my drafts. My visit was October 29, 2019. Yep. Still have the photos on my phone. Wait to be seated. Inside or out. Communal seating at bar and square table by bar behind hostess station. Entire menu served all day. Always a plus! Cold syrup. Powdered sugar from Korea so not as sweet. Owners are Korean. Next to Keg and a brew. Limited parking in front.

    Crab Cakes Benedict

    There's a time and place for everything. On a busy Saturday lunch hour, is not the time to be dancing behind the bar with your coworkers and ignoring your customers. I walked in and since I'm a single person, I want to go to the bar. I sat there watching the bartender just mosey around and at first, was completely ignoring my presence. "Am I invisible?!" No greeting, no acknowledging, just a sloppy leisure walk and she had no care to be at work. Eventually she approached and asked if I'd like something to drink...(what gave you that idea, I'm sitting at the bar?) Well, I'd been sitting there for almost 10 minutes, so I wanted to try their Bloody Mary (the one with the meat and cheese skewer). She never explained there were two different ones or even gave me an option. I would've spent the $15+ on the other, but I guess that would've been too much work for her. Another 10-15 minutes go by and she asked if I'd like something food. Sure, I guess I'd built up an appetite watching the staff do nothing but gossip behind the bar. I ended up ordering the Crab Cake Benedict. After another 5-10 minutes pass, she comes back and states they're out of their house potatoes. (Of course) So I substitute for sweet potato fries, and since I have made it this far with my first time not so great experience at this establishment, and I am determined to not come back. (In the meantime, she'd also forgot about the couple sitting next to me the remainder of their order after they were almost done.) Long story short, I was not impressed with quantity of food and quality of service. For such a nice establishment, they need to do better!

    Brunch Burger with Fries
    Christian R.

    My wife and I came in on a Sunday afternoon around 2 PM to take advantage of the brunch menu and celebrate a family birthday. We called earlier that morning to make a reservation for our large party of 9, which I highly recommend. The seating inside the restaurant is limited, specifically for large parties. The time we went was super busy and we ended up being sat outside in their patio seating. The patio seating isn't bad, however it was very windy that day, and the wind was catching certain parts of our table, making it uncomfortable to eat. Of course this isn't the restaurant's fault or anything, but it affected our experience nonetheless. Our server was mostly attentive, although there were numerous occasions that we had to go looking for him to ask for something--refills, silverware, etc. He did okay, but could have been better. Food-wise I'll stick with reviewing what I ordered--I decided to go with the "Brunch Burger:" a burger with house-made bacon jam, fresh arugula, Dijon mustard, havarti cheese, and an egg. It came with a side of fries. My burger was just okay. Nothing special. I ordered it medium, but it came out more med-well to borderline well done, but I wasn't going to send it back and wait more. The combination of the other ingredients was fine, but again, it wasn't amazing or anything. Fries were crisp. Overall our visit was okay, I would probably order something different the next time around if we came back!

    Smoked Salmon Benedict

    Good drinks and good food Janice the server was very pleasant and helpful. The lemonade was very tart and tasty The salmon tasted very fresh

    Server was nice , I did feel like the tables were a bit close together but it was nice and busy for a Saturday! I had the sweet potato pancakes and they were nice and not overly vegetabley. And the side of potatoes were a bit salty and seasoned well, kind of greasy towards the bottom. My friend liked her skillet with steak, next time I would want to try the drinks and pastries.

    Well, one year later, we hope this place would have improved. When this place first opened, the food was amazing, however, its been consistently pretty bad. The omelette was super salty and greasy. The steak in the salad was overcooked. The server was very nice, however nonexistent. She came over at the beginning and completely interrupted our conversation. We asked for the music to be turned down slightly so we could hear each other because it sounded like we were in a nightclub. Mind you this was at 12 noon on a weekday. Don't get me wrong, I love to play loud music and dance and go to clubs, however, this is not the time or the place. Loud music seems to be a reoccurring issue in El Paso restaurants. I'd like to add that we waited about half an hour for the food to come out and only two out of the four plates came out so part of our party got to eat their food first, which is very rude. Somebody needs to let servers there know that serving all the people at the table at the same time is good etiquette. How do you get a job at a restaurant without knowing this? Do the managers train the staff? From my experience the quieter, the restaurant, the more elegant, and classier the establishment. This place needs new cooks, possibly with some cooking experience. This is a reason why we don't go out to eat anymore. Unless we see some improvements in the restaurants around us, it's just not worth it to go out anymore. Why go to a loud restaurant where you can't even talk to the people you want to catch up with? If you want to go to a club go at night. If you want to drink go to a bar.

    The Bailey's French toast was amazing !! The flavors mixed so well and it wasn't overly sweet like it may seem.
    Jaclynn E.

    The Bailey's French toast was so yummy. The house coffee was a bit weak, but otherwise it was a solid breakfast all around.

    Chilaquiles-green...fab!!

    This is for today only and their limited time turkey havarti sandwich on "homemade" ciabatta...aka a thick dry biscuit. Very little turkey. Huge chunk of dry bread. Do not recommend. It looks nothing like the picture. It was awful and I'm kicking myself for not sending it back. $17 wasted. Good thing it's a limited time. I'll stick to my tried and true favs and not try anything new because most times they hit it out of the park. Still hoping someone will take the advice of taking the nasty air freshener out of the bathrooms. It's toxic and overwhelming.

    Strawberry mojito and flavored margarita
    Diane M.

    Food was good. Huevos rancheros did not look as I had expected. They were drowned in red salsa. Looked more like huevos montados but they were good. Good flavor and I ate it all. Friend had the border burger and she said it was delicious. Strawberry mojito was so refreshing and perfectly sweet. Friend had a flavored margarita and she was also very happy with her drink. Unfortunately, service was not good. We absolutely would have ordered another round but we sat with empty drinks and empty water for quite some time. Even after I asked for water, it was some time before she came back with it. Service really disappointed us. We were excited abt meeting for brunch and it wasn't the experience that it could have been.

    The English breakfast. Great service.  Thank you Janice!

I'm a big fan of brews, IPAs to be exact, and this place had quite the selection. The pizza was a nice size selection for two, very well cooked with seasoning and bursting with good flavor! Also! I love a server that really be personable, connect with you, have outstanding menu knowledge and go beyond the menu with some great pairings and recommendations! Special shoutout to Mateo!!! The service/hospitality here is one to remember and added to the great experience.

    I can't believe it took me this long to come back to Aurellia's for lunch! I'd only been once,…read moreyears ago after COVID, just to meet a friend on the patio. Honestly, I thought it was just a drinking spot, so I never bothered to step inside. Big mistake. I first tried their beer at the Greek Festival (the Greek brew was so good!) and knew I had to give them another shot. When I finally came in, I was pleasantly surprised. Even with The Shack Wings & Brews across the street, Aurellia stands out because they actually brew their own beers -- and they're fantastic. I don't drink much, but I tried a light one on the manager's recommendation and ended up sharing it with my friend. Smooth, refreshing, and plenty of variety on tap. For food, I went with the Bavarian Forest Burger -- wildberry bacon jam, arugula, Swiss cheese, sautéed mushrooms, beer mustard, all stacked on a toasted potato bun. I wish added hickory bacon and an egg, and loved the options. The burger came out cooked medium (they only do one level of doneness), but it was juicy, flavorful, and held together perfectly with the bun. My friend isn't a fan of pink, so she struggled a bit with her cheeseburger, but honestly, mine was one of the best burgers I've had in El Paso. Filling, rich, and worth every bite. The service really stood out. Everyone -- from the manager to the staff -- pitched in, helping each other out, cleaning tables, and jumping in when needed. It's a smaller space, and it can get busy and loud, but they kept everything running smoothly. I loved that team atmosphere. Bonus: They even had a lunch special with a discount if you pair a house beer with your meal -- a nice surprise. The outdoor patio has both shaded and sunny spots, which is perfect for El Paso weather. My only real complaint? Parking can be a bit tricky. All in all, Aurellia's is a true local gem. I regret not discovering it sooner, but now I can't wait to come back -- next time with my husband. Don't sleep on this place. If you're looking for great food, house-brewed beer, and a warm local vibe, this is it. 1620 N Resler Dr, El Paso, TX 79911

    Great burger place that also does really good chicken, fish, and salad! Was there with my family…read moreso we ordered accordingly, I wanted a burger, wife wanted a salad, and kid wanted the fried fish. I tasted all of the dishes we ordered and notably put their green chili burger in the top section of my favorite burgers! The salad with grilled chicken was also very good, and the kids fried fish was tasty as well, expect it's the same fish used for the fish tacos. Basically they use good ingredients, and prepare them thoughtfully. The place was very clean and the person taking our order was helpful answering our questions, other staff was friendly as well. We will be back when in the area.

    Im currently eating here as I write this, it's so good I had to write right away!…read more The OG borracho burger is soooo good, you gotta eat quick though because the over medium egg will make it fall apart quickly but that's okay, like I said, it's delicious. It came with seasoned fries which were FANTASTIC as well. My wife had the regular burger, she's picky but she definitely loved the burger. She's more of a regular fries person, being picky but she said they're okay, which is a good sign! My kids never eat out but my one order of sliders was finished super quick, the other is a baby but she eating too. She doesn't eat my burgers at home so I need whatever recipe they have! My son ate his nuggets and they all love the fries. The only thing I have that could be an improvement would be making the limeade a bit less tart otherwise we really enjoyed everything! Especially their customer service The restaurant was great itself as well, the music was good, they have 2 tvs for entertainment as well. I would absolutely recommend this place to people! When I'm on this side of town I'll definitely come back
