The pizzas are spectacular- deep dish style with a thin crust - and the toppings are light and fluffy. I don't know how they do this and the results are spectacular. The flavors simply pop. Try the eggplant appetizer and any of the salads to start. All the pastas are homemade and the pizza- to die for dear readers. Enjoy!

Anything cream filled is my favorite. The sourdough bread and baguettes are also top notch. It isn't the easiest place to get to but the trip is worth it. Street parking can be a bit of a pain. It's also tiny inside and will feel very crowded on a weekend morning when you have a line of people trying to grab pastries with as many tables as possible crammed inside a small space. The tables for brunch are usually filled so expect a wait. I haven't tried their coffee yet but they did look good.

Brunch spots are a dime a dozen these days, but finding one that actually delivers on the hype is a…read morerare feat. Milkweed manages to stand out in a crowded scene by focusing on what matters most: incredibly fresh and flavorful food. The menu spans breakfast, brunch, and lunch with a level of seasoning that hits the mark every time. These are my favorites so far: -The Sweet Dutch Baby: A crowd-pleaser that manages to be both airy and indulgent. - Corned Beef Hash: Super fresh and flavorful. You get an entire roasted roma tomato. - Cheesy Spinach Omelette: Simple, fresh, and very cheesy. - The iced coffees and teas are well-crafted as well. - For those looking for a lighter start, they offer great "healthier" alternatives like smoothies and loaded fruit and yogurt bowls, making it an easy choice for groups with different dietary preferences. The Experience The atmosphere is very homey. Staff are friendly. Place is clean and doesn't have that diner stickiness. The service can be a bit of a rollercoaster. There are moments when it feels like you've faded into the background or been forgotten entirely. But the food is worth the wait. If you're looking for a quick "in-and-out" meal, this might not be the place. But if you value high-quality, delicious brunch offerings and don't mind a slower pace, Milkweed is a local gem that delivers where it counts.

What we ordered: - Strawberry Nutella French Toast: 3/5, this was a lot better the first time I had it. This time it was super dry and the strawberries were very bruised and mushy - Savory Dutch pancake: 5/5, such an interesting dish, very filling, generous portions of eggs/burrata/prosciutto - Mushroom Florentine omelet: 5/5, my mom absolutely loved it. Said they were generous with the toppings cooked in. - Tater tot casserole: 3/5, guest said it was average but wish there was more egg in it - Corn beef hash: 4.5/5, guest said it was real, high quality corn beef hash (versus from a can). Took 1/2 point off because the eggs weren't cooked perfectly. We liked the vibes of this place and the creative dishes, will definitely be back to try new things.

We were in the area and wanted to try a new place out, so we decided to visit Honeycomb Cafe!…read moreLocated right in Savin Hill, by the train station stop, is this lovely cafe that offers a good selection of different sandwiches, bagels, & drinks. What we ordered: -Italian Stallion -Let Them Eat Steak -Caramel iced coffee Thoughts: The caramel iced coffee was okay, a little more watery tasting than I usually like but not bad. Both the Italian Stallion and Let Them Eat Steak sandwiches had good fillings. We wished that they incorporated some type of spread like mayo because we found our sandwiches to be dry. Made it a slightly difficult to finish, however, we were able to get some mayo (made in house btw!) and that definitely helped! The staff was very kind & helpful + they were playing some jammin' music. Would come back again.

We grabbed a coffee for the lady, The Italian stallion and let them eat steak. Both sandwiches were good imo, breads, I went with the recommended selection by the staff on the steak sandwich.

Helped a lot. Without it, I wouldn't have finished my meal. Saw a lot of cute dogs while eating in the window seating! Will be back

Wow what a great meal!…read more We went as a party of five. The staff was incredibly kind and accommodated us running late as well. Our server was so kind and gave us helpful advice on our order. We ended up ordering the Jerk Duck drumettes which were incredible -- super soft fall off the bone duck in a tangy sauce with some spice. Truly perfect and I think we all licked our plates clean. We also tried the fried okra which had little okra sticks set in a yogurt dip and was a really nice compliment to the drumettes. Last we got the Plantain chips which were so good -- definitely some of the best plantain chips I have had because they cut them so thin! And the dipping sauce was yummy also, would definitely start your meal with this. For mains, we shared the Suya Fennel, Goat Ragu, and Prawn Curry. I'm not sure I've ever eaten a fennel dish before but the Suya Fennel was so yummy with different textured vegetables in a creamy sauce. The prawn curry was also incredible with five fat prawns in a tangy coconut curry sauce with a side of fried roti/paratha perfect for cleaning up all the sauce. They also were easily able to accommodate a nut allergy and put the cashew cream on the side for us! The goat ragu was also yummy but came out like-warm (not sure if that's how it's supposed to come) and was overshadowed by the other mains a bit. For dessert we ended up trying all three -- the Cardamom Semifredo, Chocolate Raspberry Clafoutis, and Mango ice cream and love all of them! I think we all agreed our favorite was the Cardamom Semifredo because it's so unique -- the texture of the cake is almost like rasmalai and it comes with crunchy puffed rice which was a perfect balance. Definitely worth trying if you're open to trying something new! We also loved the mango ice cream with peanut brittle which is thicker than typical ice creams and also like a mango lassi ice cream. The chocolate clafoutis was super solid and similar to a lava cake, and perfect if you're looking for a chocolate fix, but not as unique as the other two. Overall we had such a great time at Comfort Kitchen. The service was great, the food was great, and the vibes were great. We will certainly be back!

The eggs were fluffy, the sausage was juicy, and the french toast somehow cut the intensity of a plate of meat. And it felt like a really great deal at $20. The pancakes were buttery and fluffy. The lucky charms didn't come through as much as we hoped, but it was still quite good. It was a tad loud and smelled like smoke in and off, but it didn't end us boring us much. Overall I definitely recommend. We only got 2 things but every plate around us looked equally delicious!

We started with the tuna crispy rice (my sister's favorite app ever), and we saw smash burgers on the menu and made up our minds immediately. The tuna crispy rice had a really flavorful sauce on it.

And let me tell you... it absolutely lived up to the hype. First of all, the ambience? So cute. The space was very clean, which I always notice immediately, and the aesthetic is this perfect mix of retro and modern. It has that nostalgic, cozy feel but still feels fresh and updated -- super cutesie and definitely Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. The food was amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite was worth it. It's one of those spots where you instantly understand why everyone keeps talking about it. What really made the experience unforgettable though was the customer service. I had a little accident with my bag (so embarrassing ), and they didn't just brush it off -- they fixed it for free without hesitation. So kind, so professional, and genuinely caring. That level of service is rare. Incredible food, beautiful atmosphere, and even better people behind it. Easily a 5-star experience -- I'll absolutely be back.

At last, a good day and time for us to finally try Yeanie's!…read more Me and my wife have been wanting to try their smash burger for so long. I don't have anything to compare the smashed burger to because this is my first time trying a restaurant quality smashed burger. I'm a little torn if I like smashed burgers or beefy burgers lol I must say though, their burgers are seasoned well. I'm sure it's just salt and pepper but it's enough! The edges had enough burnt edges. I did a double with Yeanie sauce. I'm going to give the burger a 8/10. I wish my burger had more onions. I also tried to loaded fries. It was a little overwhelming LOL there was alot going on including 2-3 different sauces including cheese. I'll give it a 7/10. A little more light on the sauce would be better but that's just my preference. I was told that the tenders were amazing. I ordered that for my son and he loved it. I agree, the tenders were pretty damn good. My wife tried the Nashville chicken sandwich . She rate it 7/10. The slaw inside the sandwich was amazing. The sauce itself was ok. She wish there was a little bit more of a kick to it. Overall, I would definitely come back to get their burgers. Just once in a while. Reasoning is, it's a bit expensive. You do pay for what you get and that is good quality dishes. But $13 for a burger that doesn't come with fries can be a little steep... Definitely come and give it a try!

I tried the smash burger salad minus pickles and chips on my first visit and on the second visit was gonna do the same but I was in the mood for something sweet and went with the American breakfast.

The American breakfast was also tasty, I was shocked by the size they gave so much food. The star of the meal was the French toast! I am not a huge French toast fan and often steer clear because most people can't get it right, but this was by far the best French toast I've ever had. Perfectly fried and full of flavor. If you are a fan of French toast you gotta try theirs you won't be disappointed.
