Reviews
Part of our party arrived just before we did, so we were seated quickly. Our table was in the front room, well lit by the large garage-style windows that would likely be perfect to open during warmer months. The atmosphere leaned toward a contemporary diner aesthetic, with modern touches in a cozy space.
Our server stopped by within a couple of minutes to get us started with coffee, which was exactly what you’d hope for at a breakfast-focused spot—solid and satisfying. When they returned, we placed our orders, and the food arrived about 15–20 minutes later.
From the table, I tried the Deluxe-Shuka, Biscoff pancakes, and the salmon omelet. The Deluxe-Shuka—featuring two eggs, cevapi, and potatoes in a house-made tomato sauce topped with sheep feta, green onions, harissa, and served with pita—was the standout. The tomato sauce really made the dish, and the eggs were cooked perfectly, making it a refreshing yet hearty brunch option.
The Biscoff pancakes were light and fluffy, and the combination of powdered sugar, crumbled Biscoff cookies, chocolate hazelnut spread, and fresh whipped cream made for an indulgent griddle choice without feeling overly heavy.
The salmon omelet, filled with spinach, onion, and sun-dried tomatoes and topped with smoked salmon and labnhe, was another excellent plate. The rye toast paired beautifully with the richness of the omelet, while the side salad added freshness thanks to a bright, citrusy dressing. The salmon finished the dish nicely, and the labnhe—a yogurt-based cheese—brought a tangy depth reminiscent of cream cheese and lox.
Throughout the meal, our server checked in regularly, refilling our coffees and attending to any requests we had. Overall, I was very pleased with the experience and would recommend Upstreet Diner to anyone looking for a good breakfast or brunch spot in the area.
The chicken pita was essentially a chicken shawarma with a pita. The food was super fresh, especially the vegetables. So crisp and light. The sauces they used also added a ton of flavor, with some creaminess, a little sweetness, and overall just adding that extra punch. I especially like the red sauce they use (although I’m not entirely sure what it is).
The chicken itself, though, was not as good. It was too fatty and also didn’t seem anywhere near as fresh as the vegetables did. The pita they served it with was pretty great and helped mask the slightly below par chicken.
All in all, a nice place to get a healthy breakfast or lunch. I would want to come back to try some of the sweet items or the classic breakfast dishes.
The coffee was hot, the eggs were cooked to perfection (its difficult, it seems, to get eggs over easy… but this place was right on the money!) At first I thought the pancakes might be dry and overcooked. But once I buttered up and tried their maple butter, it was delicious. Really, really good.
