Brunch here was such a treat from start to finish. The Hot Chicken Benedict were done beautifully and absolutely hit the spot, exactly what you hope for when ordering a classic favorite. I also tried the ube French toast and loved that it was not overly sweet, which made it even more enjoyable and balanced in flavor. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. I am already looking forward to coming back again.

Great breakfast spot with fresh ingredients and fantastic service. Being that there are so many breakfast spots in the area, we thought this spot did a good job standing out. The food looks great to the eye and tastes just as amazing. The yolks were perfectly cooked and the chicken was mouth watering juicy. Everything we had was yummy. The only gripe we had was the entrance area was small and awkward as you had to maneuver in a tight spot to order at the front. We ended up sitting outside in their patio. It was a nice sunny day, but beware, there may be a million flies having breakfast with you.

Food was excellent. Would’ve liked to know that my eggs Benedict came with potatoes & a salad so that my partner didn’t spend extra $$$ on potatoes for himself (it wasn’t written on the menu that the eggs Benedict come with salad & potatoes.) Service was subpar for the price. For example, the waitress just dropped off our waters & didn’t serve them to us, had to ask for refills, had to order at the front & seat ourselves, etc. The restaurant was nice, with pretty decorations, but the cow smell is terrible. Got used to it after like 10-15 mins though.

First time at this place. I was not impressed with the way the ordering for this place works. It’s like you walk in and figuer it out yourself because there is no one to greet you here. We there were 5 people behind the counter and not one is making eye contact. I asked where to we order? Is it self seating? How long is the wait? Like i said you have to figure it out. The food it way over priced for what it is. I reviewed the reviews later and noticed everyone had the same complaints for over a year ago. In my experience, if those issues haven’t been fixed in that long, they are just not going to be fixed. Not going back.

Food was good but I don’t like that you have to pay ahead of eating. I like to figure out how good my server did before leaving tip. Next time I will leave no tip at the beginning and leave cash on the table depending on how they treat us. I got coffee and was never offered a refill. My wife wanted ranch so I went up to ask them for some because we sat outside and server was nowhere to be found. Overall the food is good and the location is nice. The girl who took our order was nice and very informal but once we got our food I feel like they ghosted us. I would return but I hope they will be more attentive next time.

Fast casual, good food! Horchata latte was delicious. Also has a nice outdoor patio. I had the egg sandwich with arugula and my cousin had the eggs Benedict.

Fun breakfast/brunch spot. When you walk in, you are greeted to tall ceilings and decorated walls. The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. We ended up ordering the Salmon Eggs Benedict and the Popping Yolk Burger. Both of these were delicious. The Benedict was probably one of the best I’ve ever tried! Both dishes came with a side salad and potatoes. We loved it.
I’d recommend this restaurant for a visit with family or friends. However, the menu is definitely on the pricier side. We spent over $55 for the two of us, so parents beware!
Last thing I’ll say is that their refillable Iced Mango Green Tea was yummy and hit the spot during the heat wave that blasted us last week.

One of the things holding this place back is a host … I got a California Omelet but it was consisted more of spinach than it did egg. I wouldn’t come back or think of recommending this place to anyone . Wife didn’t like her dish either. Country fried potatoes were just smaller cut fries …

As I was walking I saw a place to eat which is popping egg yolk, and I was hungry so I went inside and I was amazed by the interior also the floors are Clean??? So anyways, when I ordered already and sat down in a both and also I just want to say, free waters before drinks? That’s a great idea in case your thirsty and you finished your drinks.so anyways(again)once I got my food, it was a large portion of food for about 60 dollars or lower (I guess) also the food was good.(note to the cafe: If you can, can you make the mozzarella cheese sticks with a cheese pull it didn’t really see that when I ordered the mozzarella sticks but they were still good! (no offense) and also,10-12 MINUTES OR LESS?? You earned my respects.In conclusion I HIGHLY suggest you eating here.(sorry no photos!)

Food is better than average with its unique flavor. The banana French toast only has 6 pieces thin banana and I think with the pricing they can be a little more generous.
The seating, however, is very disorganized. The system works like you order first and take a seat. You’ll see people wait in line with the waitress for a table and people just walk in and take a number and seat at the only available table. The waitresses can’t really do anything at that point. They wouldn’t put two tables for 2 together for a party of 4 either.
They could either just ask people to wait in line for a seat then order at the table or don’t take orders until a seat is available.
Be reminded that they charge a 3% fixed service fee if you would like to give additional tips.
