I had only wished I found this place on the 1st day of my 9 day stay in the area instead of my last. I would have eaten here every day. It’s not anywhere near any other restaurants or businesses really so you kind of need to be intentful to just make it your destination. The inside boasts warm and welcoming super homey decor with a variety of nooks including a small bar area as well as a garden-like patio for your dining options.

Excellent breakfast food! Ordered the Big Luigi, which has sausage, and the Veggie Soufflé Omelette. Staff was friendly and took care of us well. Suggest making a reservation since it gets crowded. Highly recommend if you want breakfast or brunch!

First time here, ordered the black & blue burger and the honey whiskey lemonade. Both were great, but I did get an extra side of the blue cheese dressing to add a little more flavor. Our server was super nice as well!

We have been here a few times, never disappointed! Expect to wait, this is a popular place. We were there at 1130a on a Friday, parking lot packed as usual. The space is open and noisy with all of those people, but good atmosphere. We had eggs Benny’s (many varieties to choose from). Food has always been great! As long as my daughter is living in that area we will definitely be going back

What a phenomenal cafe! The wait was only about 20 minutes, and we were able to drink coffee and cocktails while we waited. The service was so FAST! We were impressed with how quickly we got our food, and the food was WONDERFUL. The atmosphere was vibrant and exciting. The servers were so kind. They were attentive and brought everything out quickly. We could not have been happier with our experience and would recommend this place to anyone!

1st time visitor. The food and service were excellent. Recommend the tossed chopped salad. Great flavor. A very fun, lively atmosphere. Maybe a bit loud if you’re expecting quiet conversation.

This is a busy breakfast spot for good reason. The service and food is great! Great place to have work meetings over breakfast. The have a full bar and a coffee shop available. You can grab a quick bite or sit down and be served by the excellent staff. The food is fresh and delicious. Have been here many times and have never been disappointed. Today my group showed up we had no reservation and the place was super busy. We had a group of 8. The staff worked very hard to get us in and seated together. Took about 5 minutes. The hostess kept us in the loop until she could seat us. Oh and they provide water and you don’t even have to ask. And the coffee is good!
