Whenever on the island we try and stop here for breakfast at least once. This is our second visit and didn’t think it was possible but it was even better than the first visit (last visit we were highly impressed). We shared the bread pudding French Toast, I got a bagel sandwich, and my husband got a frittata. So much food, decent pricing, and the coffee was constantly filled and hot. They even brought water out for our dog without us having to ask for some. Food came out in a timely manner everything was hot!
(1st visit we had prosciutto eggs Benedict, croissant sandwich, bread pudding French toast)

This place is so cute. The ambiance and wait staff were fabulous. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Everything is made in house with fresh ingredients sourced locally. Very yummy. And the pancakes! Biggest fluffiest pancakes I’ve ever seen. We got the BLT burger with fries, breakfast sandwich with potatoes, a mimosa and pancakes. Everything was so yummy. And lots of food. The bread was fresh and soft. The eggs had great flavor. Overall 10/10 recommend

I might have found my new favorite breakfast place on Anna Maria Island. The menu has some fresh takes on breakfast items. Prosciutto Benedict is outstanding: poached eggs Brie prosciutto and hollandaise. Wow. A must visit for a great breakfast!

Really enjoyed this place! Small homey atmosphere love the family touches and pictures in the inside! We were greeted right away by our waitress. I ordered the frittata and the presentation was beautiful and was a great portion, for me enough for two meals. I enjoyed the breakfast potatoes because they were small and extra crispy, so if you don’t like your potatoes cooked this way. Then that is something to be aware of. Rye bread was also a great brand and could tell they use fresh ingredients. The breakfast sausage was also great quality, not like the microwave links you’d by in the freezer isle at a grocery store.
Would definitely recommend this locally and family owned establishment!

This place was recommended by a family member who loves locally.
My Cornetto Breakfast sandwich was perfect! The croissant was fluffy, flaky, and had the perfect amount of butter flavor. The 2 eggs were cooked just right as was the bacon. There was a good amount of ham and the melted American cheese balanced out the different flavors. The side of potatoes was perfectly crispy on the outside and still tender on the inside.
My girlfriend ordered the Vegetariano because grilled eggplant, tomatoes,fresh
mozzarella,basil & pesto. I tasted it and the pesto was refreshing with the perfect blend of fresh ingredients. The grilled eggplant was cooked perfectly, and the mozzarella and tomato was very fresh. Her fruit bowl had a fresh assortment of fruits.
We ordered an assortment of pastries to take to our relatives and we did taste them. They were all freshly made and flavorful.

The reviews are accurate, great quality of food at a reasonable price and friendly service, but the two times I’ve been here, they have been understaffed. They have one person making coffee, working the register and waiting tables. Which meant slow service. It is a smaller size establishment, 30 indoor seats, and some outdoor seating. But I tend to go with the higher quality of food so it doesn’t bother me. I tried the croissant dipped French toast and it was very good. My wife tried the vegetarian frittata and it was great.

We had an amazing dinner here last night!
We came for holidays from Italy to Anna Maria’s Island and this place is exactly like the best places back home.
The ambience was cozy and we’ve been treated superbly from the moment we stepped in. We ordered the “mussels alla Sorrentina” as a starter, then the Lobster tagliolini and the Branzino. Every dish was rich in flavour and very tasty.
The chef and owner Luigi is very professional and came outside to greet and check on all his guests.
We definitely recommend this place to everyone!

This place is an island treasure! I had gluten free blueberry orange pancakes that were the best I’ve ever had. Mimosas and cappuccino was amazing as well. We thoroughly enjoyed talking with the owner who clearly takes pride in the quality of their food options. I can’t wait to come back!

The food was delicious. The presentation and the portions were terrific. I had the avocado toast which was really good. The desserts, which I didn’t have, looked really good. They even had vegan pancakes and waffles which I was tempted to get but didn’t. And the staff and the owner were super friendly. One more thing, easy parking. A definite must go.
