I stayed at El Cap, so I found myself in Native Son for breakfast, drinks after work, then drinks at night. Staff was great.
Such a bummer having to address this.
Walked in for breakfast with hubby there's only one other couple inside. The two girls at the counter don't say hi or offer menus. You can directly go up to the counter or have them approach you. They weren't hospitable at a simple Welcome or Hello. I grabbed the menu myself took a glance, & decided to go next to Rainbird, super helpful and attentive. Direct eye contact and offered coffee immediately with better breakfast options. Go to Rainbird! I’ve been there multiple times already, always the same hospitable approach. They're open for breakfast everyday Google has not adjusted the schedule.
This place is truly a unique fine in Merced. The location contemporary, beautiful and sophisticated. The plants are real lol, that’s a big plus. We were shocked that this place even existed in this part of California, but we will make sure to spend a weekend in the hotel and enjoy the restaurants in this neighborhood. Adriana was a sweetheart and was so happy to show us this corner Cafe. Thank you and we will be back
What a hidden gem.
Food was amazing.
Atmosphere is too cute.
Our server Adrianna was so sweet and knowledgeable.
Yall. MUST TRY SPINACH DIP!!!
Adriana was a delight this afternoon as my son and I enjoyed a bite to eat -
The Wind Down Wednesday offering of a selected glass of wine and a mini charcuterie plate was a perfect pair for my delicious tomato soup!
Adriana made us feel very welcome and I look forward to going back!
Such amazing service by Adriana✨
Me and my husband decided to go downtown to get out for my birthday and we ended up here to have a few drinks, we loved the drinks but the biggest thing was the atmosphere, I really enjoyed it, also the girl that hosted us and made our drinks Adriana R had the perfect balance of hospitality but also just let us be. Loved that! She was great at multitasking and taking care of everyone that came in. She appeared cool and calm while getting it all done.
Adriana was awesome! The drinks and cheese platter were delicious. Can’t wait to come back.
Adriana was awesome! So helpful and went above and beyond to get my order right. I will be back because of her and her great work ethic! Lovely place and great food
Shawn is the best. That bartender has more knowledge than the boomer generation.

Poor food, inattentive service and a tip demand at checkout. Crummy and irritating.

"Grab and Go" is not my style. Almost like a Starbucks, but without a lot of the food items.

My wife, our baby, and I have visited this place twice now, and we’re still not sure if they offer table service. We’ve noticed other customers having their orders brought to the table, while we’ve only experienced self-service. I don’t usually assume the worst about people, but this has happened to us twice. We won’t be coming back for a third time.
