Very modern and open space, also felt personal and diner-esc. Staff is all very accommodating and helpful, we were missing creamer for coffee and they promptly brought it; despite the morning brunch rush. Food was alright, my monté cristo seemed like it could use more cinnamon and flavor in general. Overall decent place

There are so many good things to say about this place. The herbivore breakfast bowl was stuffed with veggies; the power omelet was cooked perfectly as were the pancakes. Upbeat staff, clean and comfy seating, pleasant background music.
