Absolutely fantastic! I can’t express it any other way. The staff was extremely friendly, the service was quick, and the food was outstanding! My wife and I both tried the Crab Benedict, and we highly recommend it. If the restaurant isn’t too busy, you might even find some art in your latte! Definitely have breakfast here!

This place is so sweet and the food is so good! We had no reservation, but still sat in less than five minutes. They are friendly and the menu has an impressive selection. Try the POG juice, it was delicious! Our only complaint was that she gave us so much food that it was hard to finish everything. But is that really a problem?

This very hip restaurant is the perfect location for a breakfast date. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Now to the food! The fried pork chop was ok… too much breading and very thin pork. The braised pork belly was almost a winner, it was very chewy. The salmon eggs Benedict is a winner! The French toast was a drop down win! Not a whole lot going on. Not to sweet, just right. Other than that, it’s good.

This has become my new favorite breakfast spot! Everything on the menu looks amazing, and I find myself wanting to try something new each time I visit. Right now, my favorite dish is the Pig Bell Benedict—the pork is absolutely delicious! The service is generally good, but my main issue is that the food doesn't always arrive at the same time, no matter how many people are at the table. On one occasion, we had to wait for one of the dishes, and although the server seemed to have forgotten it, they quickly apologized and offered a discount. I still give them five stars for being proactive in addressing the issue before we even mentioned it.

Great place that doesn't turn breakfast around potatoes, finally! Both the table staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. The coffee is super good, nice to start a morning meal. I had the Cali Benedict and was in vain! The hollandaise light, but tasteful, the eggs poached soft but not underdone. The bacon thinner and perfect... not too soft or too crispy and I liked it was thinner and easier to cut through. The avocado was fresh and the salsa must have had some fruit juice in it, there was always such a bite of sweetness. The bread was soft, fluffy and also easy to cut through. I really can't remember when I had a Benedict where I didn't need a steak knife and worked for my breakfast. The greens that come with were not dressed with their beautiful sweet but tangy dressing. They saw them clean every table and seat as the people left that was also beautiful.
