Recent Reviews
Our go to place in Palo Alto for breakfast and lunch. Been a regular for years. Great service and food. Reasonable price given the location. Much more mellow now with outdoor seating and Calif Ave closed to traffic. Highly recommend, will not disappoint.

Service was great, servers were polite and updated us on our food time with out having to be asked. It was crowded when we went so it was very loud. The food was delicious overall ; however, the crab cake in the benedict was a little salty. Great value for price too!
October 2024
Delicious and certainly coming back for more as there were several items I wanted to try!
Even a small portion of the menu that was made for smaller portions! My partner had that and it filled him up and he still had a bit left over.
