    It's been a bit since we last came here for brunch, and they've removed some items from their brunch menu. They used to have a burrito of the day and biscuits and gravy, which my husband loved and was excited to eat again, but he was disappointed to find they've taken it off the menu. I ordered their special of the day, which was bread pudding French toast, and it was pretty good!! My husband ended up ordering the huevos pericos. He liked it, but wasn't fully satisfied since he really wanted the biscuits and gravy. Our waiter Carlos was great! He had a positive attitude and made us laugh, he totally made our experience great.

    Love this place! If only it weren't so expensive so I could go more often, haha. We went for our anniversary tonight, and had a lovely experience. We loved the sausage soup and beet salad! So unique and flavorful. For the main entree, the gnocchi and winter pasta were also a hit. Hard to top the soup and salad though! To top it all off, the pumpkin pie panna cotta was amazing. They included it free of charge, as an anniversary gift. What a nice surprise! Great service, great food, great time.

    Came here with my friends for brunch and it did not disappoint! We ordered most of the menu haha. Honestly their coffee was really good. The place was big but had different rooms so felt pretty casual for groups. All of the meals we got were delicious, did not expect pulled salmon for the lox. The potato side dishes were a little weird. I would DEF recommend the breakfast sandwich it will cure ur hangover. Would come here again!

    There were certainly things I liked about Block when we visited yesterday, but overall, it seems a bit overpriced for what we received. This restaurant is fairly cozy bordering on cramped. My mother-in-law reserved dinner for a large group for my father-in-law's birthday, and our table was a bit crowded. I ordered the gnocchi. It was delicious, with lots of short rib--but, for some reason, very little gnocchi. I enjoyed the sourdough bread and the chocolate potted cream (which we had to order without the whipped cream as it has alcohol--recommend offering the option of regular whipped cream here in Utah). We also ordered the charcuterie, which looked delicious but which I was unable to try for medical reasons. At the rather expensive price point, the service could really use a boost. We went long periods of time without seeing our server, and she pushed my father-in-law into ordering a dessert since it was, supposedly, free. (It was not free; it came up on the bill.) All in all, a bit disappointing.

    Baked ricotta - yum!

    This meal was a fitting end to a successful business trip - and it was a tasty finale, indeed! We had a tequila-based drink called "on a Tuesday" that was the perfect compliment. Our appetizer was the surprising, addictive baked ricotta with fig and guanciale compote - soooo good! We followed that with a sublime bolognese - creamy and perfectly balanced. No room for dessert - sadly! Superb service made for a truly special evening!

    The Block is a lovely farm to table restaurant on university avenue in provo. It is refreshingly unexpected for being in a strip mall. It is a bit brightly lit for a date night restaurant, but the brick wall and open kitchen are very pretty. We started with the charcuterie board, which I wouldn't recommend. None of us particularly loved their choice of cheeses and accoutrements, however the prosciutto and nuts were our favorite part. The gnocchi was very good, I'd highly recommend it. The only complaint with it was the sauce was very thin and was served with a fork. I would return and would recommend.

    English muffin

    Went to the Block Restaurant for brunch on Sunday. Service was great but a large error in their eggs Benedict. The English muffin was so burned in the bottom that one needed a steak knife to enable cutting the muffin. The Hollandaise sauce was great and the egg was cooked to perfection. The muffin was so hard the table knife would not cut it.

    We visited on a Sunday morning for brunch. I got a Bloody marry Which was solid, good spice, small for the money though. The wife got the Manmosa which was "fine", heavy on the champagne which isn't her fav. We were with some friends so we have some good insight across a few dishes. Chef special : Plantains were epic, whomever makes those needs a raise! Chorizo was tasty, would have used one more though. "I could have just had the plantains and chorizo". It needs a salsa though. Egg's Benedict: Perfectly cooked eggS, Potatoes were crispy and tasty. For sure would order again. Chicken fried steak: The steak was a little too chewy, I am guessing that using a New York for this would naturally turn out on the fattier side and frying isnt going to render is down much. The spice in the hash browns was strong but good. The cheese and jalapeño were mixed in, not on top. The gravy was bomb, creamy and super flavorful. I would put that on anything. Block Hash: Very good. Bacon was crispy. The sauce stuff was amazing. The zucchini and yellow squash added a nice texture. It needed a little salt/pepper or salsa. The salsa on the side ended up being $1/each for maybe one ounce. Kinda silly. It if was a cup, that might be more reasonable. Atmosphere: A lot of nice wood against grays and metal creates a great welcoming feel. The little blocks they use for the check were fun. It was a little hot and stuffy, they could benefit from addition airflow. Recommend to others: the group consensus is 3-4 out of 5

A relative who lived in the area suggested this restaurant and we were so glad she did. The servers were so accommodating.

It was remarkable. Everyone loved what they ate. I wanted to try something different so I had what I think they called the Southwest Benedict. It was 2 sopes with chorizo tomato cheese avocado an egg and onion. It was delicious! I had cafe de olla and it was so yummy. Lastly on our way out, they had a cafe inside where you could walk up and order coffee and pastries. This is such a great idea! I decided to order some pasties to go. The pricing is very reasonable. All in all, I highly recommended this restaurant!

They are bottomless and the owner came around asking if we wanted refills or if we wanted our drinks in a to go cup at the end of the meal. So that was nice, but I'd still rather have a $3 cup of juice. I didn't have the cinnamon rolls (or maybe they call them sweet rolls) but they were small and didn't look too appetizing.

    I had a disappointing experience at Peace on Earth Coffee…read more I specifically ordered a matcha latte with a substitution for health reasons, so accuracy mattered to me. I made sure to confirm this substitution was available before placing my order. After drinking it, I became concerned that my substitution had not been applied, so I tried to contact the store. It took multiple calls to reach a manager, but once I did, they acknowledged that a new employee had likely made a mistake and apologized. Although it was difficult to get in touch with someone, I appreciate their willingness to hear my concerns and their attempts to rectify the situation. When I returned to the store for the agreed-upon refund, however, the experience became frustrating. The manager, Aubrey, initially attempted to refund me for a less expensive drink and seemed unwilling to believe me when I explained what I had paid. I clarified that I was not seeking reimbursement for the tip, only the agreed-upon refund for my purchase. Her tone felt irritated and dismissive throughout the interaction. Fortunately, I still had my receipt with me and was able to verify the correct amount. Mistakes happen, and I appreciate that the store acknowledged the possibility of an error. What disappointed me most was how the refund was handled. I left feeling that my concerns were met with skepticism rather than understanding. Additionally, on a completely separate side note, while I was there, I noticed a customer had a dog inside the café. When I first visited with my friend, we had her dog with us and we were told dogs were only welcome on the patio because they had an open kitchen. So it was unexpected to see this dog inside and drinking from a reusable customer water cup provided by Peace on Earth. The inconsistency in enforcing store policies was surprising. I hope the business uses this as an opportunity to improve employee training and customer service.

The avocado was a day or two past its peak of freshness, and starting to get those brown spots inside that says, "You should have made guac with me yesterday!" The bright spot was the waffle: It was pretty good. Crispy outside; fluffy and light inside. However, as a caveat: My wife's waffle was cold and not appealing. Also, the restrooms were (I'm being nice here) neglected. Overall, my going-in expectations may have been too high, but even so, Waffle Love didn't meet the lowest expectations possible.
