    Fresh vegetables for salads and sandwiches.
    Letty C.

    We usually order Sunday breakfast here and we pick it up, however today we stopped in for lunch and this place was packed. When we first arrived there were no tables available so we sat at the very busy counter which would have been cool, but you can't eat at the counter in peace. The line cooks and waitresses have several phone orders and deliveries lined up on the counter for the delivery man to pick up. The counter was crowded and bags moved by us furiously. When we sat at the counter we had to almost yell to one another over the cooks and waitresses yelling phone orders back and forth to one another and pushing bags by us like some sort of assembly line. As soon as a table was available at the chance to get away from the bustle and bustle of delivery order, I ordered a tuna wrap, avocado salad, and fries. We also had a beet juice freshly made from the juice bar. There is a wide variety of freshly made juices available, carrot, beets, ginger.....The waitress was kind, but extremely busy. She took our order, bought us our food, then dropped off the check. She was nice but never stopped to say "do you need anything else. " I enjoyed my food, the tuna was thick with fresh crunchy red peppers and celery, however I will never visit again during lunch hour it was just too much going on. I will stick with picking up our food.

    So check it...just because a place is in the hood, doesn't mean it's bad. It can actually be pretty damned good....case in point, North Star Cafe. First off, the place is suuuuuper busy. That, is OBVIOUSLY a good thing. I sat at the counter and ordered up a chicken/ broccoli quesadilla. 5 minutes later, it arrived and another 5 minutes later, it was in my stomach. Slammmin'! They also have a salad bar (you know, like delis in the City?) and smoothie station, which everyone seemed to be crowded around ordering up. Like I said, don't judge a book by it's cover. This place deserves respect. Word up.

    I forgot to take a picture, it was too bomb. Cheap & Amazinggggg omg. I would recommend to anyone

    "Cheese fries" @northstarcafe 0/5 don't recommend.

    I asked for cheese fries and this is what I received!!!!! I'm terribly upset I spent almost $20 on my food for me to receive this bullshit respectfully they just gotta do better.

Service: 10/10 The employees were very friendly. They were kind and had a nice smile on their face. That is what customers should be looking for when being approached by waiters or waitresses. They were very helpful with the menu option. Food: 10/10 I started with their hot chocolate with whipped cream. Man! It was delicious. The whipped cream, by the way, is optional. It does not automatically come with the hot chocolate. The texture was just right. I picked a good day to drink hot chocolate. I have also ordered their standard Belgian Waffles with a side of sausage. I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed with the quantity of the waffle. They only give you one. Additionally, you'd have to ask for the butter. Butter does not automatically come with the waffles. The syrup is or at least should already be on the table once you're seated. Even though I only got one waffle, it was delicious. Furthermore, you have the option to add whipped cream to the waffles. They will add the whipped cream to the waffles for you. The same can be applied to pancakes. When all is said and done, they will offer you a blow-pop lollipop. Overall 9.5/10 I will be back. I am unsure if they do reservations. It wouldn't be surprising if they did. Their menu options and pricing were reasonable.

That attention to detail was appreciated. The crowd was mature and respectful, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The music selection offered a nice variety and complemented the brunch experience well. Service: Our waiter was friendly and attentive. When I requested lemon and an additional brunch menu so my husband and I could each review the options, I learned that only one menu was provided for the table. Since I tend to take my time deciding what to order, having a second menu would have made the process much easier and more enjoyable for both of us. I asked for the menu and lemon he said he would come back and he NEVER did.. we had to ask for it twice . And at the time of ordering our meals it's then when they beamy us the lemons to squeeze into our glass of water. Food: I had the chicken and waffles . Nothing difficult to put together. However if you are going to state on your menu that it's chicharrón de pollo was bland no taste I had to ask for lime to give it some salty mess to it. My husband steak and eggs which came with rice. Steak was chewy he said it was ok nothing to brag. Over all I will give this place a 6 out of 10

The place had many tables filled so I would highly suggest going there with a reservation beforehand. Despite there being a good amount of people service was quick and all servers were very kind and attentive. Our waiter Steven made sure we were taken care of and everyone else were very kind. Our drinks arrived promptly, I will say there was some inconsistency in how our drinks were mixed since one of the vanilla drinks was sweeter than the other but other than that all drinks were delicious. The food on both times that I've been here was delicious with everyone at the table enjoying their meal. I've yet to have a bad experience here. I would say if you are debating trying the restaurant, take the opportunity to as you won't be disappointed.
