I’ve ordered take-out from this location multiple times, mostly on weekends, sundays , and the service has been consistently unacceptable.
The front desk staff member, Maria, was rude and unprofessional during every pickup, showing no basic customer service skills. This was not an isolated incident but a repeated pattern across several visits, which made the experience even more frustrating.
Instead of enjoying my weekends, I left feeling irritated and disrespected each time.
While the food may be good, the poor attitude at the front desk completely overshadows the experience and makes me hesitant to return.

Serving big portions! I got the farmer scrambler with a side of three buttermilk pancakes. Great service too!

Surprisingly Saturday brunch was only a 5 minute wait in a packed restaurant.

Chicken fajita omelette has cubed chicken with no discernible seasoning. Bland and watery somehow. Disappointing.

Very great atmosphere, service and food! The sourdough french toast was 100/10, so good. The Belgium waffle was great and not dry at all. The 49’er flapjacks were really good as well, almost like a crepe super thin.

Hannah took good care of us! The Dutch Baby pancake with strawberries and bananas was delicious. I’d recommend lowering the coffee price, $5 is a bit expensive for diner coffee.
