“What a great place! Passed by here once and our daughter’s name is Madison so I thought it would be fun to try out. Made a reservation for Mother’s Day, probably not the best day to try a new place. We showed up for our 12:15 reservations and despite the mob scene outside, our table was waiting. The food and service were spectacular on a busy day. I can’t wait to come back on a normal day. I had the cauliflower tacos. Amazing, as good as they look in the picture. Wife and daughter had omelettes with salad and potatoes. Neither could finish! Not sure if I can post photos“

“Convenient stop for those in University or nearby halls (Dickson/Calcia/etc). Not a huge selection but coffee is good and some lighter snacks. Staff can be hit or miss in the "pleasantness" department, but overall a decent location for a quick pick me up bite.“
