Sour-smelled booth, dirty, had residue from what looked like soup or soda. Hair, dirt, crumbs, etc, inside the booth between seat and wall.
Kara E.

Oof. I'm not sure if it's just this location, but I hope that's all; I used to adore Corner Bakery! A couple things sealed the deal that I may not continue visiting CB... this location for one (filthy!) and in general for another. This location is really, REALLY dirty. Like, no one moves chairs / tables to vacuum. No one wipes down walls near tables/booths, no one vacuums out booths (see pic). In general, the 2 top booth we sat in had a sour smell. The soda fountain (where you get water) looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a year or more with sticky residue and gunk. (We didn't get soda, but did get water out of the Lemonade spigot, sketchy). I'm really sad that discontinued their DC Chicken Salad completely. The menu (while it looks trendy) now has items that would appear in a cost-saving picnic basket; lunch meat sandwiches and paninis, soups (sous vide from a bag, as I witnessed), easy leafy salads, bags of chips. Essentially all cheap to stock, and longer lasting than something like a chicken salad, apparently. I imagine those many who got their orders to-go will still be finding this location palatable... but dine in at your own risk.

Buttermilk Pancakes with Eggs & Bacon
Santanu S.

Although I have eaten at other Corner Bakery locations for lunch, this was my first breakfast. The patio door had no signage, but the interior door stated masks were required. Not an issue but I had to return to my car to get one. I immediately removed it when I entered and saw NO EMPLOYEE wearing one. I ordered the Pancakes , Bacon & Eggs combo. I also got coffee. Fortunately, I drink the caffeinated stuff because they had run out of decaf. When I got a refill, they had run out of half & half but had replenished the decaf. The food was deceptive. Upon initial observation, it appeared the thin pancakes were all one-sized. Upon closer look, I had actually received two medium-sized and two small-sized pancakes. So it equated to about three pancakes instead of the four as described. The pancakes did soak up the syrup to be Vanilla Maple-flavored pancakes, but I am skeptical if the concoction actually contains real maple syrup. The bacon were very crispy which others may prefer but I do not. As for the eggs, they were slightly overcooked.

Filthy tables not being cleaned.....
Bruce M.

OK- I am a long time fan of Corner bakery! I love the Panni's, the great salads and of course the deserts. But I recently visited this one in the Villages and cannot get past the bad service and dirty tables. It was in the afternoon and they had a reasonable crowd of people coming in. But the tables and booths were half full with dirty dishes and food from past customers. while I understand they cannot clean each table after a customer leaves - i counted 14 tables full of dishes and not cleaned! I watched people come in and look around disgusted that there were not clean tables for over 30 minutes. As I finished my BBLT i went up to the counter and asked to speak with the manager. A young woman came out and I told her that there were a lot of dirty tables and the the staff did not seem to notice. She waved her hand and said no big deal - it was shift change and they were busy. I left and do NOT plan to go back to sit in a restaurant looking at dirty tables and being told by the manager it is no big deal. Food was good - the ambience was disgusting!

black avocado
Maddie H.

I am usually really fine with the service and such here. But today I walked in and the guy working the counter (teen guy, tall, black shaggy hair) just looked at me, didn't say anything just looked at me. And this went on for about a minute or so and then I finally was helped when I had to ask. Secondly (and the reason I am writing this review) is I paid $1.00 for black avocado. You heard me right, black avocado. I added a pic for proof. Never asking for avocado here again...

Free chocolate Bundt cake for my birthday!
Trina W.

Have been wanting to try this place out and after signing up for their mailing list and receiving a welcome coupon I did. I'm excited to say I'll be back again. I've received two coupons now, both for a free sweet treat (no purchase necessary) in my email. One for signing up and another for my birthday! I used my coupon towards a free chocolate Bundt cake. It had just the right amount of chocolate icing so it wasn't overly sweet. The cake was perfect and so moist. I will be using my second coupon for another! I didn't realize until stepping inside how extensive the menu was or how nice it was. There is a counter at the front to place a quick order or grab a dessert and coffee as well as a full sit down area. I glanced at the menu and saw lots of yummy things I can't wait to go back and try!

This is the corner of the black and dark  refrigeration unit by the register, interesting it is missing part of the laminate in that spot

I've been to Grutogi Bistro several times now, and it's such a cute spot inside,…read more perfect for lunch or brunch! The Salted Cloud Cold Brew and Grapefruit Chiller are two of my favorites, and the Golden Garlic Chicken Panini was so yummy. The seasonal donuts are amazing, so definitely save room for one! The avocado toast was my least favorite. It looked beautiful, but I wanted more flavor. The Lemon Pink Hibiscus Chiller was too sweet for my taste, and the salted cookie was just okay. Overall, still five stars from me! I've found plenty that I love and will happily keep coming back for the coffee, chicken panini, and those donuts!

Seating is cute and unusual for American restaurants but still fits the whole image of the place. If I had to find one thing I would improve upon, it would be the espresso machine, not because they need a better one but because they don't have it, they use a different type of coffee than the rest of the shops around, nothing wrong with it, their latte is still great but i like no sugar drinks so i usually opt in for their incredible teas. I tried multiple different sandwiches at their bistro, and all of them are so unique and great that each of them have their own place in your daily meals. Their brisket sandwich was juicy and tender, there is turkey club was so warm and melty; the chicken salad sandwich is refreshing for hot summer days; we also tried chicken panini, which was also very comforting. My favorite of all of this is their breakfast sandwich with aioli and egg, heavenly. Overall, one of the best places I have been to in Texas so far! P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/ service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not, the stars reflect that.

The beautiful garden setting was just as charming as I remembered. There were bunnies to see, baby showers taking place in the garden, and families enjoying the atmosphere. The owner even came out to personally greet my sister, who frequents the cafe with her kids. In fact, this is their preferred spot for tailgating before games at the school across the way. Why sit out in the elements when you can enjoy great food and beautiful surroundings? And speaking of the food, it was delicious! I had the Texas Avocado Burger with fries, my sister ordered the Turkey Avocado Club with tomato basil soup, and my other sister enjoyed the San Miguel BTO Tacos. They were incredibly generous with their portions, and everyone said their meals were excellent! What I love about Little Joe's is that it's so much more than just a pretty place to eat. The gardens are gorgeous, making it a wonderful setting for celebrations and special occasions, but it's equally perfect for a casual lunch or simply hanging out. It's family-friendly, dog-friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Little Joe's isn't just a special occasion destination. It's the kind of neighborhood gathering place you want to make part of your regular routine!

The feeling was soooo warm and inviting and the ladies greeting us were the absolute best. As you walk in you review the giant menu and place your order and from there find an open seat and they bring the food out to you. Love the concept. Encourages socializing if you'd like and you're allowed to bring your dogs. Our neighbors behind us had the cutest little pooch who took a liking to us right away. Such a cutie. Talk about a diverse and interesting menu. We opted to try the grilled cheese sandwich and tomato basil soup as well as the fried chicken sandwich and a bowl of veggie bean soup. Everything is fresh and tasty. Prepared to pure perfection. Both sandwiches were major home runs. Quality ingredients and preparation. Highly recommend. The soups...I can't even begin to brag more about them. The tomato basil is homemade and the best I've ever tried. My sister and I decided to split out sandwiches and boy was I glad we did. My veggie bean soup was soooo good. My absolute favorite. If you've been to Louisville, Ky and eaten at Lynn's paradise cafe (it's closed now) you'd have major flash backs. Memories... We had the opportunity to meet the owner and talk about warm. Hats off to a wonderful experience. The entire staff deserves applause. Finally, I end this review with desserts. We had to try (judge us later) the cherry pie and cinnamon roll. Both served with fresh fruit. The cherry pie was other worldly and the cinnamon roll was eye rolling deliciousness. Life is good!
