The atmosphere is the only redeeming part of this place — cute, moody, and well designed. Unfortunately, the food quality was unacceptable. The strawberries were mushy, the avocado was brown and clearly old, and there was a hair in my food.

I brought this to the staff’s attention and received a quick apology, but nothing beyond that. No replacement, no partial comp, no offer of a drink — nothing. For a brunch restaurant, this level of food quality and customer service is disappointing.

Nice vibes, but not worth returning due to poor quality control and lack of accountability.

The food is amazing. You get your own menu, order at bar. But prompt service and very helpful. The atmosphere is beautiful ambiance. Great for a girls night or date night

It's a small place, but because of that, it turns over fairly well. They have the best coffee and delicious food. It's a cute, quaint hole in the wall.

I loved the place! Went based on the recommendation of a fellow foodie, and it did not disappoint!! The mall quaint setup, was very welcoming, comfortable and and diverse. The food was excellent, and my pockets weren't empty when I left💰💰

A fantastic dining experience. The bartender was our server and she did an awesome job. One plate was not to our liking and it was fixed perfectly and immediately. Something to try: the Isla Jade martini. Three thumbs up!

This is my first time here. The initial order taking was different but ok. The sign says:

1. Grab a menu
2. Order
3. Find a seat.

So while I was in line ordering some ladies behind me took the last table without ordering first. I told the staff that I was going to sit there and that wasn’t right.

Instead of CORRECTING the couple that came in after me….they told me to sit at the bar or take my order TO GO.

So I sat on the couch got my food, and waited for a table to open. I politely informed the ladies who took the table the rules. They apologized…I told them it was the staff’s responsibility.

The ladies then told the staff they were sorry and didn’t know, the waitress told them they did nothing wrong.
So do the rules apply to certain people or….
Because I guarantee if I say there that I would have been promptly corrected.

Came here after work for breakfast. I got the avacado toast and the bacon. The bacon had a a lot of seasoning but I think that how it was supposed to be. The avacado toast was very flavorful with a hint of sweetness. Wasn’t busy when I went in and a nice calm area .

Can’t say enough good things about this joint. The atmosphere, food, and staff all exceeded all expectations… highly reccomend their fried chicken and waffles. Also one of the best lattes ive ever had. Will be back soon.
