Great experience! Our waiter, Luis, was super friendly and funny. We came on a Tuesday for brunch/lunch, and while the restaurant was nearly empty, the food and service were excellent, even better than my visit about three/four years ago under different ownership.
The layout feels fresh, though it’s still a bit small. They have freshly made juice, coffee and the food were super delicious. The menu also offers great options for those with dietary restrictions.
A pleasant surprise, definitely worth checking out!

Pat - who I assume was the owner - was very friendly. He is very talkative and is very attentive to his customers. Maybe a little too chatty as my coworkers & I went there for lunch and it took longer than we expected to place our orders. The food was good, but a little pricier than what I expected, especially for lunch. Overall though, I would come back. Good was flavorful and you could tell it was made with quality ingredients.
Parking: It is in a shopping center, so plenty of easy parking

I was early to my tax appointment and stopped for a coffee and breakfast.
Immediately upon entry Luis treated me like family or a close friend, even with it being my first time there. He also treated the other guests in the same way.
The location is warm, clean and inviting. All the tables are preset for enjoyment.
After telling Luis I wanted a Latte and healthy breakfast he Recomended a Cuban roast and the Avocado Toast on vegan bread to which I added a poached egg and bratwurst. OMG!!!!!! So GOOD!!!!
Even the men’s room was clean.
I’ve made plans to return this weekend.

Its a cute little cafe for a quick catch up or brunch. Little over priced i feel but staff is really nice and they have a lot of healthy food options.
The food, smoothies and coffee are delicious! The atmosphere (a bit noisy, but it’s the nature of the building) and the service very good. The international menu excellent. A bit pricey for breakfast. The prices don’t change, but you can justify that amount for brunch. Highly recommendable!
Dietary restrictions: Nice gluten-free selection!
