I wish they had more than one vegan option (veggie lover’s wrap). This is a ver pleasant café. Service is friendly and portions good. Menu has a lot of variety. I would like to see more vegan options such as a tofu scramble or other breakfast option and a vegan salad and vegan burger.

How has this place been open for so long? Incredibly overpriced, small portions, food is meh at best and bad customer service to boot. Went in there for breakfast with my parents cause I heard it was good. Went up to order and since none of their breakfast food looked particularly good and since me and my parents were going to split everything I decided to order a sandwich. I was told we don't serve lunch on Sundays which I find more than a little ridiculous. I guess my surprise and slight annoyance and disappointment registered on my face because the cashier leaped into a half baked excuse for why they don't have lunch on Sunday. I was hungry and wasn't particularly interested so I cut her off and asked for a milkshake. The cashier then asked "you sire that's what you want? Our breakfast is really good." And began listing items off the menu. I'm sure your breakfast is good but I read the menu and don't need you trying to upsell me I just want you to take my order. Parents got a breakfast bagel sandwich, a Alexander omelet, and a parfait. Total for everything was nearly $60 so I had high hopes for the food. Food comes and was severely let down. Omelette was a weird brownish green color so I don't know what kind of eggs they use and the breakfast bagel sandwich tasted like something I could get for half the price with hash browns at McDonald's. The milkshake was very small and tasted like it was made with a powder mix instead of milk and ice cream which for the price is a little annoying. Everything about this place rubbed me the wrong way and I'm baffled that they have been here for over a decade

This looks like an amazing place to get breakfast. I wish we had not had plans. We got coffee to go. We had a reasonable wait for our coffees. They tasted great!

Dietary restrictions: I got an oat milk latte.

Had the carnitas breakfast burrito and omelet. Both of us were ill for the remainder of the day. One of us could have been a coincidence.
