The Drinks
We started with the Morning Meditation and the Pineapple Express—both were incredibly fresh and the perfect refreshing start to the meal. I also highly recommend the Honey Crunch Iced Coffee if you want something with a bit of sweetness and a great caffeine kick.
The Food
The food was the absolute star of the show. We tried a bit o everything:
Tres Leches French Toast: This was decadent, perfectly soaked, and felt like a total treat.
Barbacoa Breakfast Tacos: Savory, flavorful, and a great portion size.
Lemon Ricotta Pancakes: These were light, fluffy, and had that perfect hit of citrus brightness.
Chimi Steak & Egg Hash: The steak was cooked beautifully, and adding the sliced avocado on top was a game changer for that extra creaminess.
The Vibe
The atmosphere was welcoming and the service was efficient even though it was a busy morning. It’s the kind of place where you can tell they care about the quality of their ingredients.
I will definitely be back to this location on US Hwy 98. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-tier brunch.
