    Farmers omelet
    Katrina P.

    Came for breakfast on Saturday morning. They opened a little later than we were hoping for, but it ended up worth our wait. We ate outside, since the weather was perfect. My husband ordered the Chihuomelet with a side of veggies, and ordered the Farmers omelet with a side of bacon. My husband's omelet was super tasty. My omelet was divine!! One of the best omelets I've ever had! The sauce was absolutely amazing! The bacon on the other hand was rather disappointing- it was obviously just reheated bacon. All the other ingredients seemed fresh, so I'm not sure why they cut corners on that one.

    Piedmont has so many vegan options, it's crazy - don't know what to choose. It has a cozy, hole in the wall kind of atmosphere, in a good way. The service was fast, and our server was patient - even when my coworker took forever in deciding her menu and asked a thousand questions, since she was a picky eater. I had the pad thai, with tofu scramble, and extra veggies. It was delicious. I ordered it medium, so they just added sriracha to a bland base, which was a bit of a disappointment for me honestly. But they made it up with the vegan dessert, which was yummy!!!! If you're in El Paso, and want to go to a place with both meat and vegan options - I'd highly recommend this place!

    We came here for brunch without any expectations since the menu seemed a bit outdated on Yelp. However, there was such a large selection of menu items (most are vegan/vegan option available) that we got so overwhelmed with what to order. My sibling is vegan so this was an awesome place to try out in El Paso. I ordered the matcha buckwheat pancakes and a side of sunnyside up eggs. The pancakes itself were okay, I didn't expect a fruity syrup since I usually prefer the classic maple or pancake syrup. The pancakes were also a bit grainy and earthy, which I expected with the matcha and buckwheat combo. I wouldn't order this again but it was definitely fun to try! The eggs were possibly the best eggs i've ever had, orange with runny yolks. We ordered the bang bang broccoli and yum yum hash browns to share. Both were absolutely delicious. The sautéed vegetables on the side were a bit vinegary, which I loved since I enjoy pickled veggies. Both of these dishes were vegan and didn't taste like it at all! The bang bang broccoli was super crispy and the sauce was even better, I could've dipped everything in it. My sibling got the loaded smothered biscuits and green pozole. Both were great. The biscuits were soft and fluffy, the seitan bits were so crispy it tasted like bacon. The pozole was citrusy and yummy with the crispy seitan as well. There was indoor and outdoor seating. With the weather being over 100 degrees, we sat outside which had a mist fan above the table. Our server was kind enough to give suggestions and routinely checked on our table. Our food also took about 15-20 minutes to come out. Everything we tried was amazing and I cant wait to come back for their other dishes :)

    This is one of the best brunch spots in northwest El Paso that survived the pandemic. They opened in 2019. Our server, Kiana knew the menu extremely well with knowledge of incredidents and preparation details. I did a Yelp search for brunch spots and this one on west side had high marks. They have an extensive menu of breakfast & lunch selections + extensive list of alcoholic drinks including cocktails, mocktails, beer and wine. They have plesant music playing inside with wood laminate chairs and tables. The outside patio is shaded with misters. Kiana brought our orders quickly and kept our water glasses filled. I got a full stack of Matcha Buckwheat pancakes with assorted fruit and Grenadine syrup. Found out later than the pancakes were gluten free. Very light despite the buckwheat. A wonderful brunch.

    I have been wanting to try Piedmont for awhile. The vegan cuisine in El Paso is limited and although it has widen in recent years with local businesses and restaurants accommodating more dietary needs. As a home cook who enjoys cooking and doesn't go out to eat much, there has only been about two solid local restaurants or businesses worth eating out for vegan cuisine. Especially considering innovation and eating quality healthy food. I am glad to add this local business as an option to consider. Although I did not get the chance to dine in for the complete experience, I was pleased to finally try and they did not disappoint. When I called in my order the customer service was great. I was greeted and asked about the level of heat I would like along with them repeating my order and estimated time of my order being complete. As I arrived there was a two families also arriving and being seated and a couple was already dining in. Although there is limited tables indoors, they definitely make the most of the space. If you are planning to dine in I would suggest to call ahead especially if you have a big party. One of the families mentioned was a party of like 7 and it seemed to be the biggest table to accommodate indoors. My order was ready which was great. The packaging, presentation, and portion especially for to go was impressive. I love Thai food and Pad Thai is one of those deal breakers for Thai cuisine. I loved the bold spice and rich flavors as it was unique and innovative along with the two different ways the tofu was prepared being fried and scrambled. This definitely was worth the experience and I hope I can dine in soon to taste more of their vegan options. One thing I have noticed in El Paso is consistency in quality and customer service is poor. I was pleased Piedmont delivered on flavors, presentation, and service. I look forward to supporting them more and tasting more of the vegan options. I do appreciate they offer non-vegan too for family and friends to enjoy a meal with different dietary choices.

    Visiting El Paso, and we eat a mostly vegetarian/vegan diet. We happened to be on the Westside running errands, and found Piedmont. I was happy with the diverse selection of foods that were either vegan or vegetarian without everything being a Impossible or Beyond (which is not our preference). For the most part, the options seemed healthy as well--not all vegan restaurants or foods are healthy when they are trying to match the flavor of meat-based dishes. We ordered shishito peppers, a falafel wrap with veggies on the side, nachos, and stuffed grape leaves. Everything was tasty and the ingredients seemed fresh. We would definitely come back. The service was great as well, our server was very friendly and helped me choose between very different options. She also checked in on us regularly and made sure our waters were full on a very hot day. There's also a full bar with extensive options. I ordered a glass of wine and the pour seemed just a little short, but it was probably just an illusion because of the shape of the glass.

    Pozole rojo w seitan, biscuits & gravy

    Not a lot of vegan / vegetarian friendly spots in El Paso so happy to have stopped by Piedmont cafe! The pozole rojo with seitan was sooooo yummy, and the biscuits & gravy were good too! Server was really friendly and the food came out quick ! Looking forward to coming back to try more food

    From start to finish a total gem! A friend at work was talking about this new restaurant that had just opened up from the owners who had previously started another delicious restaurant I went to a couple of years back - so of course I had to try it! I'm so glad I did because everything was top notch. The dining area is more casual and the chairs are not meant for hours of sitting, but the food speaks for itself - and it is good! There are vegan options as well as meaty options and plenty of hearty greens - I love a healthy menu that is packed with flavor and makes you forget you're eating well! The service was great and our server came by to check on us often. Everything we ate was very good but the take home here was definitely the passion fruit tres leches cake. Oh. My. Goodness. Best. Dessert. In. Texas. How do I describe dessert perfection? Well I can't, so you'll just have to go try it! It is the most delectable thing you'll have in Texas hands down. Flaky but not dry, sweet and tart but not too sweet and not too tart, words do not justly describe.. wish I had some right now!!

    I came here because a review called it a good study spot, and for once, the internet did not lie…read more I grabbed one of the booths with outlets underneath, which immediately earned points because apparently my laptop and I both need to be plugged in to function. There were plenty of outlets around, so no awkward hovering near a wall like a tech-dependent houseplant. I ordered a coconut latte with oat milk, and it was genuinely good. The booth was also dangerously comfortable with the cushioned bench situation. Very easy to convince yourself you're being productive when really you've just found a socially acceptable place to sit for three hours. Customer service was kind, low-key, and pleasantly quiet. The space stayed pretty peaceful most of the time, so if you need silence to study, this is a solid find. I personally need a little more background chaos to keep my brain entertained, but that is very much a me problem. I'd still come back for the latte, the outlets, and the suspiciously comfortable booth.

    My friend found this coffee shop for us to try while we're in town. Moca was nice and the cashier…read morewas super sweet, answering questions. Their most popular item was the biscoff latte & then the tiramisu. I'm not a super big tiramisu fan so I went with a vanilla latte. My friend enjoyed the biscoff latte but my vanilla latte left something to be desired. The inside was pretty quiet, a few people studying and low background music so perfect for a day where you need to work or have no meetings. I'd say give Moca House a try!

    Full service coffee bar right across the street from the UTEP campus…read more Plenty of pastries and a wide variety of coffees, teas, and drinks. They have coffee iced, pressed, frapp'd, flavored, They have teas milked, herbal, March, herbal... If you need a little snack, they have fruit filled empanadas, muffins, crepes, and sandwiches. Plenty of room and wifi while you study or hangout. The staff was very friendly and the orders come out fast. If you cannot stop in, they have a drive thru. I had wanted to stop by when we were staying down here, so was glad we made a trip to drop in today

    I had a really disappointing experience here, especially because there were issues with all three…read moredrinks in our order. First, my friend ordered a frappe and was never told that they were out of whipped cream. We only found out after the drink had already been made. He wanted a refund because the drink wasn't what he ordered, but the employee (Camilla) said she didn't know how to process a refund. Instead, she printed another receipt, seemingly as if she done a refund and expecting us not to notice that it was just another receipt. The Matcha and Taro drinks were also made with way too much milk and barely tasted like what we ordered. No one asked what type of milk we wanted, which was especially concerning because one person in our group is lactose intolerant. When we asked to have the full order refunded because none of us were happy with our drinks, she again said she didn't know how to issue a refund. We asked to speak with a manager, and she told us that she was the manager, which made the situation even more confusing. A manager should know how to handle a basic refund or at least know how to get assistance. What made the experience even more unprofessional was that after taking back the first drink, she drank it in front of us and then walked away. We also noticed what appeared to be a lot of cross-contamination while the drinks were being prepared, which was concerning, especially for anyone with allergies or dietary restrictions. Overall, the customer service, drink preparation, and handling of the refund situation were extremely disappointing. I would not recommend this location based on our experience.
