My wife and I had breakfast here today for the first time in a while. First thing we couldn't help noticing were several open tables which not had not been cleared whatsoever, and did not give us a good first impression.Avocado toast as described on the menu caught my eye quickly, but was poorly executed and poorly plated. Two thick slices of cold Texas toast with a single small poached egg on each slice with overripe diced tomato and oxidized avocado on a very narrow plate. Ate the first slice but could not come close to finishing the second slice as it was ice-cold and tasteless. Potatoes were very greasy. Wish I'd taken a picture to show how unappetizing this dish looked. My wife had the California benedict where the yolk on one of the poached eggs was completely hard.Waitress did provide one refill on my coffee, but never offered another before presenting the check without my requesting.Overall, mediocre food and service. For the prices charged, not a worthwhile experience. Not likely to return.

The tall server we got was incredibly rude, and took over ten minutes to get us our check. I feel sorry for anyone who has to deal with him. I’ve been ordering from here for 6 years, and this will be the last time.

We ate breakfast around 830 on Thursday 2/15The restaurant was 50% occupied . After we finished our meal and generously tipped the server we were told they needed the table . There was no line of people waiting to be seated and the occupancy was still less than 50% RUDE won’t be going

My family loves having breakfast the most. We began dining at the restaurant more than a year ago, and it has since become our favorite place to eat in the morning. The menu offers a diverse range of dishes to cater to all tastes, and the quality is consistently excellent. Great place to catch up with friends or study.

This place is so cute. I stopped in for a quick breakfast during the week while in between appointments. I had the omelette and a cappuccino. The staff were super friendly. The food was very good. They have a nice patio for the warm months.
