Cozy cafe owned by a really sweet older couple. I got the chilaques which was enough for two meals. I liked that it had a lot of different elements for a full breakfast, it included hash browns, choice of english muffin / biscuit, eggs, the chilaques themselves, sour cream etc. The inside of the cafe is sunny and warm, and pretty quiet. I recommend this place for brunch with friends!

very confused how there's so many high ratings, there's no way this place deserves them. I had the french toast special which came with french toast, scrambled eggs, and sausage links. The eggs were overcooked and rubbery. The sausage links tasted and felt like they'd just been sitting under a heat lamp all day. and the French toast was flavorless and burned. it just tasted like burned bread. like someone had cooked it in old butter or something. Everything was so bland and bad. I'm not exaggerating when i say this was one of the most disappointing breakfast meals I'd ever had. I highly recommend avoiding this place if you've got any standards at all because you'd be better off just having toast at home. Based on that meal I'd never come back here. I'm very confused.

Staff was kind and charming.

Nice large menu for breakfast or lunch/dinner. Burgers, sandwiches, Mexican, pasta, etc. I had the fettuccine alfredo here one time and then the next time I had street tacos and they were both delicious. Friendly welcoming service, too.

The food was disappointing. Tea was lukewarm, French toast was gummy, Swedish pancakes weren’t great. Everything was just… meh. Service was good. Atmosphere was Denny’s like. It was really cold in the restaurant!

Around 4:30 pm, after a long and exhausting workday, I wanted to have a cup of coffee while waiting for my wife at the hospital. Unfortunately, I was refused service by a woman at the counter, who said something unclear like “unfortunately we won’t be able to do that,” without any real explanation. I sincerely hope this refusal had nothing to do with my appearance or visible fatigue, but the experience was disappointing.

Really great spot with an awesome setting and a friendly, attentive and welcoming staff.
Could have a little more care taken in the kitchen and a little more authenticity in their sauces and etc.
Really great menu, just needs a touch more flavor and love!

I've come here twice now, and the food has been so delicious each time. Super easy parking situation. Everyone was so kind, and it doesn't take long to get your food. Loved the Elvis French Toast, haha. I definitely recommend The Block for a breakfast outing! :)
