You stand in line to place your order and pay and then they sit you down and you wait for your food. The food was delicious. However you do have to buy everything separately instead of combos. The pancakes were so soft, filling, and sweet. They also had a few different eggs Benedict.

Looking for a good breakfast place while visiting Downey Ca, I may have found one. This popular local spot uses fresh ingredients to create their dishes. The food is good, portions are generous and all are priced accordingly. The French Toast was very flavorful and the bread was cooked perfectly, unlike other establishments where the bread tends to be a bit firmer (hard) which, negatively impacts the overall taste of the dish. The Steak and Eggs were good but the steak did lack seasoning and flavor and tasted a bit bland. The inside dining area is spacious, clean and can accommodate large groups. Outdoor seating is available should you desire. The painted wall decor is colorful creating a soothing relaxed atmosphere. The operational efficiency on how customers are greeted, seated and served is very much customer service friendly. You’re initially met by a greeter who directs you to a QR code where you’re able to view the menu and order. You’re then directed to a cashier where you pay for the meal (In advance, tip optional) and are then seated. Within 8 short minutes your food arrives table side. This process does have one distinct advantage, which, is your food arrives much quicker than most. The draw back, it’s already paid for if you’re dissatisfied. The servers were friendly and very attentive. I would suggest you arrive early since, it can get very busy. With that, other than the steak missing the mark, overall, I believe you’ll enjoy your dining experience here and would recommend this breakfast spot.

It was nice place to go for brunch. Not so crowded and delicious, and service was quick. I had short rib benedict. It was nice but one thing off was the gochujang flavor was dominating the whole dish. As Korean i love gochujang flavor, but this, i cannot taste others.

We arrived around 1 pm and had enough time to eat for a party 5 until their closing time (2pm). During this sweltering heat I would suggest having one person waiting in line and your group in the car. Inside seating is limited. You order and pay for your food at the cash register. Service was great , and I understand if staff working outside might be moody because this heat is no joke !

It’s a great place, food is fantastic and I highly recommend it but if you want to eat and catch up with friends, do it fast because you only get 1 hour and it feels like they are rushing you out because they have a line waiting. Once they didn’t allow us to order mimosas because we had “been there too long” and had finished our food…yesterday, I planned to meet with a client there, eat and discuss business but we felt uncomfortable once we finished our meal because staff kept staring at us. We were uncomfortable and left at the hour mark. Ordered the Avocado Toast and the Oatmeal, both delicious. I hear the steak and eggs are fantastic.

It’s one of the best brunch places I’ve been to! Every time i come, i get something different. They are fast and efficient, you definitely need to try their dulce de leche latte . I’ve tried the breakfast burrito, chicken and waffles, chili chilaquiles verde, the steak and eggs, and tried their mimosas! Flavors are on point. Definitely would recommend trying this place!

Breakfast-centered casual dining with counter service and indoor/outdoor seating. Delicious egg dishes including chilaquiles, huevos rancheros, and breakfast burritos. A carafe of fresh orange juice is a must.

Atmosphere is cute – especially the outdoor dining options. You have to order first before getting seated at a table, so definitely take a look at the menu before you get there to get an idea of what you want to get.

Had a party of 13, which is complicated for a small cafe but the wait wasn’t long and we were accommodated and treated like family. We all loved our food. It was fresh, flavorful and filling. We were all super happy with our choices. The staff was attentive and checked in on us frequently. Overall a great experience!
