Anthony HeleineJune 4, 2017House drip coffee Terra Sana with cinnamon infusion. Poblano Eggs were delicious. Eggs Benedict with a poblano cream in place of hollandaise. Light and creamy with fresh poblano flavor.- Laura WDecember 19, 2015Wow wow wow. Love everything about this place. Great atmosphere, friendly service, incredible coffee and amazing food. The egg and pesto breakfast sandwich and chorizo torta were both to die for!
Stephanie ChinapenSeptember 12, 2022Good: lemon ricotta pancakes (loved them so much I started making them at home!), biscuits, chilaquiles, huevos rancheros (my favorite), all the beverages (my first espresso soda-YUM). Bad: nothing.
XinnieMarch 24, 2018Small place, 15mins wait for 2 on a Saturday noon time. Had the seared salmon sandwich, it was delicious! The potatoes that came with it was yummy too, albeit tad salty.
This place is now open for dinner! Probably the best Cuban sandwich we've ever had. Also try the salmon cake appetizer.
Amazing desserts! They specialize in infused marshmallows...try the pumpkin!!- The egg and pesto breakfast sandwich is not messing around. Topped with some really great bacon, this sandwich is a must try.
- The oatmeal cookies w apricots, cranberries and other delishness!! Buy these before i do:)*
- David DerrickAugust 30, 2014Some of the best coffee around! They add just a taste of cinnamon to your mug.
