What Xavier T de Janon likes about Cafe Lakeview:
The staff here is exceptionally friendly, and the menu offers a wide variety of options. It's an ideal spot for brunch or to get some work done—or even both! They also feature an Ethiopian lunch menu that looks enticing. Based on how delicious the omelette I had was, I have full confidence that the rest of the dishes are just as good and fresh.
