We spent the evening with Chef Alex and his staff cooking and eating delicious food. It was very well organized and comfortable. It was a great way to spend an evening with friends and enjoy the company of Chef Alex. It gave us a new appreciation for the work that goes into making a gourmet meal,
Thank you all for a wonderful experience!

Another wonderful experience in the books! My eggs Benedict this time around was divine. I’m still thinking about it, clearly!

My wife and I swear by Common Cafe because it’s one of the only breakfast-oriented restaurants that can accommodate our large family. That’s huge!

Had no idea requesting well-done bacon was such a hassle. At least that’s how I’ve been made to feel at other breakfast places. Never here! They make it nice and crispy…just how I like. And the eggs are always phenomenal too, no matter how I get them.

I count on Common Cafe for impeccable service, and impeccable service is what I get. Fewer and fewer businesses are making good on the promises they make, so naturally, Common Cafe is a stand-out business in my eyes.

We visited New York last weekend and just happened to have brunch at The Common. Everything from food to a hostess was top notch. To manage that during a rush time is not an easy task. Thank you The Common team.

My new go-to breakfast spot is Common Cafe. My friend Charlie agrees. We’ve been to many places in the area, but this one’s the best.

Had such an odd experience having brunch here. We had an 11am reservation, ordered food and drinks. At about noon, the server dropped our check while we still had coffee and drinks to finish. We paid and sat as we finished our drinks and by 12:15 she asked if we wanted our coffee to go and said they needed the table so we needed to get up. They didn’t tell us beforehand that we had a time limit, and even if there were a limit, 90 minutes is usually the standard. Definitely a very strange experience and just left a bad taste in our mouth.

I ordered the breakfast naan and didn’t really know what I ordered but it was so good! They gave me a sweet flavored croissant on the house because they were closing and it was delicious.

Overall Menu Lacks Protein. I had toast w mozzarella, pesto, tomato, arugula & 1 slice of Prosciutto…not enough imo. Iced latte was the highlight of this menu. Overall wait time for food was around 15min just for toast that did not need to be cooked. I don’t see myself coming here again.

I had the chance to join one of Chef Alex’s cooking classes last night. I went into the evening not knowing what to expect and left loving every moment of the evening. From the moment we walked in Alex welcomed us and made us feel like we were having dinner at his home. He introduced us to his staff got us set up with wine and appetizers. Then he told us a bit about his restaurant and walked us through the menu of what we would be making. Everything was absolutely delicious. A full 5 course meal with drinks included all for an amazing price and most definitely worth more than what we paid. We’ll definitely be back again!

Service was pretty rude

My family and I really wanted to try this place. We stopped in this morning hoping to grab a quick bite but were turned away because we didn’t have a reservation. It was pretty quiet and there were at least 3 empty 4-tops. Very unwelcoming and unaccommodating for a neighborhood cafe.
