Came for brunch with my friend for HRW. The restaurant was not packed so we were seated right away. The food was pretty good and the service was decent. I did love their mimosas as well, be aware prices online may be different in the restaurant. I would definitely come back again!

A cozy restaurant that could accommodate big and small groups. I would recommend making reservation as groups of people do come in fast during lunch time.

The pork belly bite was great, really tender and flavorful. Ordered the urban burger, which was huge, but super dry (I should have asked for it medium at most), and the blue cheese was overwhelming, ruined the burger for me, but if you love blue cheese it is the burger for you! Server was overly friendly, but they weren’t very busy, so that may have been a contributing factor. I’d give this place a second try, as the food came out quick, portions were generous, and the vibes were good.

Absolutely worst experience I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The staff is very unorganized and Aurora was absolutely terrible. We sat outside and had to go back inside to ask for menus and to order our food because no one ever came to check up on us. We were not provided any silverware nor were we given any napkins at any time. When we asked for the check we let Aurora know that one of our meals had this weird hard char like object but she said nothing so we asked for our check. She came back and just lightly tossed onto the table without a word and left. We used the app to pay to avoid any further interaction with them, but it’s safe to say that we did not enjoy our food, the service was bad, and money was not well spent.

Our hostess/server was totally inviting! They weren’t very busy and our food came out quickly. We came for HRW23 and are glad we did. I’d never heard of this place but we will for sure be back. It’s a small cozy, cafe type with a great atmosphere. They have an extensive menu with awesome options and they have adult beverages, yay! There’s a nice patio area but it was too hot out, even with the overhead fan that’s out there. The french toast on the HRW 1st course should definitely have been dessert but OMG it was divine! My companion had a Country Breakfast from the regular menu and couldn’t finish all of it, great portion size. Unfortunately, we didn’t get our appetizer and considering how slow it was , that was strange but since there was food leftover, it wasn’t an issue at all.

Best salmon party I’ve had since my aunties, full of flaky salmon and lightly breaded. Also had fried zucchini sticks, they were plump and flash fried,not greasy. Ceviche was fresh and full of red fish and Squid. The poblano soup was lite and robustly seasoned. The roasted brussel sprouts are a must try! This was the first time I’ve had American food that was healthy AND delicious. Mad we just discovered this place!

All around I had a great experience! Several staff members who were not my waiter attended to my table and checked to make sure that everything was okay. The food was hot and delicious! There’s something for everyone on the menu.

Mother’s day lunch was great. Stuffed pork chop was delicious. They started cleaning the table before we were ready to go. But still good.

Went during mother’s day and it was packed. However, because we had a reservation, we were seated right away at 11am. The place is not very big, so a reservation is the way to go.
