The coffee was solid and both sandwiches were delicious. I had stopped here for breakfast before heading to the airport and saved the bulgogi sandwich for later. Even after sitting for a couple hours and getting a little soggy, the sandwich was still really tasty, which honestly says a lot. All in all, a perfect little breakfast spot!

First time I ordered the bulgogi sandwich, and most recently I ordered the lox. I remembered from the first time that I thought the sandwich was too saucy, so I asked them to go light this time (which they did). I liked that better. While I can't say the sandwiches are my favorite (I can't quite put my finger on it!), I would visit again because my matcha was incredible. I like the space and the ambiance. Seems great to do work or catch up with a friend. Service is quick despite it being busy.

Best decision I ever made. My hot turmeric latte could not have tasted better. It was creamy, it tasted like mild turmeric with just a hint of spiciness to it, like one gets with freshly ground black pepper. Yet it was smooth & full of coffee, milky flavor. It's quite a hike to northern Manhattan to try this place, but wow the trip was worth it.

Dutch Baby is one of my favorite spots in NYC. This bakery is fantastic and such a nice space to…read morevisit. The food is fresh (unlike some 'bakeries' everything here is baked on the premises), so there's always something delicious to try: scones, special breads (their pumpkin bread is incredible in Autumn), cakes or pies--the pies in particular often need to be specially ordered, but it's worth it--they're my favorite in the city! (Plus the bakery's owners opened the charming Fountain Bookshop just down the block, which also serves amazing ice cream.) The service is just as nice as the baked goods: staff are approachable, friendly, hardworking and kind-- even when its very busy, they never seem stiff or shut down w/overwork like staff at chain/corporate-owned restaurants can be (they also seem to appreciate a genuine thank you from customers). I've never received or even witnessed poor service there. While the baked goods are the main draw, the cafe has a full menu and the space itself is warm & open: a smaller dining area tucked on one side, a large space in the center filled with tables, and a generous bank of stools at the large glass storefront for work or study, plus a few self-service tables on the sidewalk. Dutch Baby is a space clearly beloved by its neighbors--while popular with families and childcare workers w/their charges after school, it never gets too raucous. There's floor space for both wheelchairs and strollers (while the main entry has a few shallow steps, a second door in the middle of the cafe provides accessible entry for those using wheelchairs). It's really a truly lovely spot!

The service was slow and unremarkable. The server had to read the menu several times to answer our…read morequestions about the dishes. After a very, very, very long wait with no visit from the server or attention from anyone, our dishes finally came out. The food was cold and bland, and my husband's dish had a large black human hair. It was nauseating. Our brunch was ruined. A neighborhood place we have thought of stopping by for a while. We will never stop by again. The card shop next-door was cute and well worth the trip. The food not so much.

The space was lovely and bustling, with a welcoming ambiance…read more When I first arrived, the quoted wait time was 30 minutes, but it turned out to be closer to 45 minutes. While waiting, I sipped on a Cinnamon Maple Latte, which was bold and strong, as well as heavy on the cinnamon, but could have used more maple and sweetness. My friend and I shared the Bread and Cornbread Basket, served warm with raspberry preserve jam and butter. The Bread was perfectly baked, fluffy, and well seasoned. Cornbread was glazed, giving it a slightly sweet taste, as well as crumbly in a good way. The butter made the breads richer, while the raspberry jam added a nice layer of flavor. For my meal, I ordered the Steak and Eggs, adding Truffle Fries, which were an additional $5. This also came with a small side salad topped with radishes. The Steak was tender, wonderfully juicy, and flavorful. Eggs were cooked over hard, just how I like them and made expertly. Truffle fries had a generous sprinkling of Parmesan and were delightfully crispy, with strong truffle yumminess. Salad gave a fresh element to the dish. Service was lovely. Our waitress was friendly and everything came out in a timely manner. Prices were decent. I would consider returning for dinner to try the Short Rib or Brisket Mac & Cheese.

This past Monday, Sept 14th, two of my friends and I, which included three women of color went to…read moreInwood Farm restaurant for an early dinner/happy hour. When we first arrived at the restaurant, we ended up waiting longer than expected as we received no attention. After a few minutes, the hostess/bartender came up to us and, while bringing us to the table, abruptly dropped the menus on the tables and walked away. Nothing was ever said on her part, not even her name. This was just one of many incidents that happened with her throughout the night.  Her customer service was awful with every encounter. She was always short and had a tone. I ordered the mushroom and waffle plate which arrived cold and tasted as if something in it was spoiled. After telling her that I did not want this plate, she grabbed my food and again just walked away without a word. She then returns to our table to say that she tasted my plate and that is how it is supposed to taste. I found this to be extremely disrespectful and rude on her part.  Towards the end of this awful experience our hostess/bartender changes her shift with a different waitress and no one ever communicates this to us. At this point, we are ready to leave as soon as possible. When we finally received our check, there was a 20% gratuity automatically added to our bill of only three guests. Again, this vital detail was never communicated with us. I mention the detail that we were the only party that was of color - I'm  unsure if that had something to do with it. Sadly, I would recommend you avoid this establishment at all cost.

It's a comfortable little place with a nice vibe. Our waiter, Daniel, was great. He introduced himself and told us about specials. He took our drink orders and promptly came back with same. We asked about some appetizers and he gave us great advice. We ordered the fried chicken app (yummy, fresh chunks of fried chicken with a nice dipping sauce.) we also had the eggplant croquettes, those were quite tasty. The dates wrapped in bacon were also yummy. We ordered more food for dinner. He took a couple more drink orders,all good. After a bit he told us the food would be out in about 10 minutes, and it did! We had a three cheese pizza which was great. One of our party had the cauliflower salad and said it was very good. The French fries were also hot and tasty. The lentil soup was reported as being just ok. The beef bourguignon looked great. Unfortunately, the beef was dry. It had great potential but missed the target. Same for the roasted half chicken, it looked great, the sauce was great, but the chicken was overdone and dry. The bread pudding was so so. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM was that Daniel left after the dinner came. Eventually a young lady came around to our table. She never introduced herself, but the ticket said Nyla. She literally never would clear the table. I cleared several big plates and put them on an empty table next to us. Those empty plates were there when we left. The plates with pizza crust and the finished bowl of lentil soup were also still there. She never brought the bill. I had to flag her down to get it. Then I had to get up to go pay. Lo and behold, there was an automatic 20% tip. Now it became clear why she didn't bother taking care of her table. The food is so so and the service was horrific. I won't go back.

Yes, a kale salad and a guava waffle. Stay with me. The salad is fresh, savory, and hearty, especially with the grilled chicken. Then comes the waffle--warm, slightly sweet, and topped with guava rum butter that melts into every little pocket. Oh my goodness. Taking a bite of the savory chicken and kale, followed by that soft guava waffle, gives me the perfect sweet-and-savory meal. It should not work as beautifully as it does, but it absolutely does. And the brown sugar latte? Always. It's smooth, comforting, and sweet without tasting like someone poured syrup into a cup and called it coffee. The space has the easy, unhurried feeling of a neighborhood coffee shop, but the menu is giving a real brunch experience. It's cozy and beautifully lit during the day--the kind of place where you can settle in and enjoy yourself without feeling rushed. The service matches that energy. Everyone is attentive, kind, and genuinely knows the menu. They always greet you with a smile and give you exactly the right amount of small talk: enough to make you feel welcomed, never so much that it interrupts your peace. The atmosphere, the people, and that guava rum butter keeps me coming back.

Make your own if you're not feeling theirs. It's worth it. Also writing this review because they are just quality people.
