I feel the need to leave this review here now just in case I forget to leave a actual proper long review. This is our third time, a humble looking joint so we come here always just expecting it's going to be " meh". But we keep coming back, collecting calories around our waist because everything is so good here! Service - always awesome. Everyone here looks like they work cohesively, everyone is smiling working hard . Coffees always refilled. Food- fantastic, always fresh, on point. This time I got an omelette with tomatoes and this is the first time I had an omelet where the tomatoes don't get mushy. Their hash browns are also amazing! ... while we like the shredded we LOVE the fried- like mini French fries. While all of their proteins are awesome - their turkey bacon deserves a special shout out because it often misses the mark at most places.. but not here . And then there are the little things - clean bathrooms, condiments on the table are clean and not sticky or gross !! Anyway, come here.

We had a group of 6 so had a 20 minute wait, not sure if they take reservations. If we had a smaller group I think we would have been sat quicker. Sunday mornings they only serve breakfast. Lots of great choices on the menu. Everyone enjoyed what they'd gotten. Prices were somewhat inexpensive and they had some interesting options I'd like to have in the future. Absolutely will come back.

I was a but worried because the small lot in back of the building was already filling up and the free street parking in front was also limited. I did find parking on a side street near the cafe so that was good. Our server was so nice and attentive. Even offering recommendations when we were clearly undeceive about what we wanted. Food was delicious and filling. Also, gotta love when your server checks in and makes sure your cup of coffee is always full. We had a great experience and never felt rushed to leave even though it was a busy weekend morning. Definitely, adding to our list of places to ho back too for breakfast/brunch.

The cafe itself feels like many of the other no-nonsense breakfast places locally--clean, but nothing fancy in decor. However, they offered fabulous customer service and great food. I ordered the friend ice cream waffle and it was the perfect treat. My friend had an omelet with home fries and also raved about her selection. The best part? All this good food was very reasonably priced. I have a feeling this will become one of our regular stops in the future.

When you walk in, it's really a nice break from reality with all of the whimsical, antique, speakeasy feel. You can sip on tea and coffee and walk around the shop. Nice size biscotti went well with their tea. I had the blueberry muffin also. My friend and I had two cups of tea that were great! Staff is super nice and we could have spent more than 2 hrs in there just relaxing and catching up. I look forward to going back there. It's a nice intimate space to sit alone or a couple of friends.

Falafel was also really good. I had both on top of my rice with white sauce and the combination was perfect. Salad was really fresh no bad veggies or weepy greens. Came with dressing. Pita was a little too black for me but nevertheless I didn't really mind because it was good. The hummus is different from the hummus in used to eating/making but I didn't mind it at all! The service was also really great, the lady working (who gave me my food) was very nice and made small talk with me. Not a sit down, place only take out, but inside looks really cool. I would definitely recommend this place 9/10!!!

After ordering I realized I didn't ask for the sauce on the side, I was beyond impressed by the presentation when it arrived as all the sauces were on the side as well as the chicken so that my salad didn't get soggy. Everything was neatly packed. The chicken was juicy and flavorful and seasoned but not too salty. The salad was beautiful fresh spring mix blend, and it came with a homemade lemony vinaigrette. I got a side of falafel and they were cooked to perfection, well seasoned. The humus was actually better than mine and I'm Middle Eastern. It came with warm pita bread that had a light char on it and really added a depth of flavor. My only regret is I didn't order one for leftovers tomorrow! Good portions for the price. if you're checking out reviews because you're skeptical like me give them a try you definitely won't be disappointed!
