We stopped in for lunch and the place was full. Only 5 minutes wait for a table for four people. The waiter was attentive and brought us old fashioned milk jar for water. The water was room temperature. I would like if there is ice option for the water. It was nice to be seated right by the window with the cozy vibes.
The menu has breakfast and lunch options.

The place is small and is walkable to Massart Museum, Massart, Wentworth, MFA and Harvard Medical, Longwood Ave.

Nov 11, 2025 7am, Came here for breakfast with my Mom. I got the dutch baby pancake
lemon ricotta, blueberry compote, fresh strawberries. My mother got it without the strawberry’s. She had corned beef hash, and I got 2 eggs over med with crispy bacon and cup of coffee. First off the Dutch pancake come in the skillet it was cooked in beautiful presentation! Also it was delicious OMG! Not to sweet but sweet enough, my bacon was crispy you get a lot of bacon (most places just give you 2 or 3 pieces, I got a plate) my eggs cooked as requested! My mother said her corn beef hash was delicious it was very good! Only mistake at restaurants was I ordered a fresh fruit bowl wanted to have before we got our breakfast, we where the first ones to arrive at restaurant this morning but the our server forgot about it, it’s to bad would have go a 5Star review. So I asked her to take off the bill. But other than that the food was GREAT! The place was cozy and had a great vibe about it. This is a local spot so I love supporting local businesses! You could see the kitchen area and the place was clean, table was clean we got a booth very comfortable and roomy! Also got a to go order after finishing my breakfast I ordered the sirloin mac & cheese plate this was the trifecta i had a bite after I came home while it was still hot, it was so so good! Mac elbows cooked and the cheesy Mac was delicious and the steak was plenty and great tasting! Will be back for lunch next time!

The service here was extremely disappointing. We received a text saying our table was ready, but when we arrived, we were made to wait another 10 minutes in a cramped doorway. When we were finally seated, the table was dirty, with the condiment tray and cocktail sign still wet and crumbs of food left behind from the previous guests.

When we ordered, the server brought out home fries instead of the corned beef hash we requested. We immediately pointed it out and tried to return the dish, but they insisted we keep it, saying it was fine. We did not eat any of it, yet when the check came, they still tried to charge us for it.

Overall, this was a very poor experience from start to finish with unorganized seating, unclean tables, and unprofessional service.

When visiting the boston area off of hunting avenue, you will find the most amazing Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch space. Food is handmade right in front of you, seating outside and inside they also were kind and make accommodations for large size parties. Great vibe in atmosphere.Definitely a welcome to the boston community.

20% auto gratuity added to bill, Only shown on itemized receipt. Receipt used to write your tip only showed subtotal (with 20% auto-gratuity added) and line for a tip. Server did not mention this was the case. I found this to be very shady given a vast majority of people will only look at the subtotal to write the tip. Do better.

Food was really good and accommodating with options from American omelettes to Mexican breakfast burritos. Overall a fast service and savory dishes however the wait time especially during the brunch hour was long but not unbearable (30 minutes). Much recommended for those visiting Boston

The food was bomb! The service was good. Came on a Saturday around 1 and the restaurant was packed.
There's no reservation so it's first come first serve accept they weren't organized, we were waiting in line but they kept letting people that skipped the line first. We were sat at the counter table which didn't have enough room so make sure to ask for a table.
The food took a little long to come. And I was disappointed to find out that they cook everything in the same grill(bacon, ham, pancake, toast, French toast) since i'm a vegetarian. Other than that the food and lattes were amazing.
