Our server, Deb, was friendly and made the atmosphere that much better. My Cinnamon toast drink was so incredible, I’m picking up the ingredients on the way home. The food, as always, phenomenal and a great price! HAPPY SUNDAY!!

First time eating here. It was a little crowded but that was expected being that it was a weekend. Glad they let you join their waiting list online. The food was fresh and tasty.

We’re just a visit or two shy of being ‘regulars’, with good reason. Always fresh food, friendly staff and great environment.

I always had the best experience with breakfast or brunch here. Kale juice is super tasty, pan cakes are huge. Chikichangas are the best and must try.

If you like seeds in your pancakes and a large amount of onions in your potatoes then this is the place. The atmosphere is great, service was ok. But the food was too upscale and weird for me. Perhaps I’m just too normal for it.

Sat on your patio this past Saturday. The service David provided was exceptional. He was attentive but not too much. He was pleasant and didn’t miss a beat.

Immediately seated and waitress was there in less than a minute with hot fresh coffee, which was bold and delicious. The watermelon wake up was refreshing and well worth it. We had the Chickichanga and Parma Hash Skillet and ricotta lemon pancake. We were impressed with the flavors in all the dishes. The toast was exceptional.

I love first watch. Amazing food. Really great service, it’s always has a great feeling when I walk in there. I’d say the only bad thing is the wait time some days
