This little cafe is a delight! I enjoyed the breakfast and the music that they were playing. Service was a little slow but it was to be expected as only one waitress was working. Overall an amazing experience and I would heavily recommend.
September 2024
The breakfasts are good, but when you place an order they don't want to speak Spanish, knowing there are a lot of Latin people buying in that place, they have an arepa face and they don't answer you in Spanish, I don't recommend it.
May 2024
I considered that it is one of the places that have empathy with both the customer and the employees because I have noticed.The food is very delicious and well seasoned, they constantly have a special menu per week and for each important day of the year, including good portions of drinks.The place is clean, quiet and can become a family.And if you have the opportunity to go to that place, don't hesitate, ask about the promotions and you won't regret it.!!
