    Sausage breakfast sandwich
    Adrienne S.

    Overall, this place was okay. I'll start with the positives. The service was great, and the staff was attentive and friendly. I also really liked the vibe of the restaurant. The colors, music, and overall atmosphere were pleasant. Unfortunately, the food was underwhelming. I ordered a matcha and the sausage breakfast sandwich plate. The plate came with potatoes that tasted reheated, and the sandwich itself wasn't the best. It consisted of just one sausage link cut in half, which was disappointing. The matcha, however, was very good.

    Food was really good and very fulfilling. Staff is cheerful and met the owner and she is adorable and friendly: environment was fun when we arrived it was only my party of five. But we enjoyed our morning brunch. BTW that coffee was perfect for me.

    Stopped in to grab a matcha and Dova didn't disappoint. I ordered the cinnamon and brown sugar matcha with oat milk. They hand whisk the matcha and I asked for 25% sweetness. It was very good. Tasted like a horchata matcha. My partner ordered the horchata latte w/an extra shot because they only have one drink size. He liked it though. They also sell food, but we didn't eat here. No pet friendly patio, but vegetarian options. The inside is cute and clean too.

    I love coming here for a delicious latte on my lunch break. I usually get a Blueberry Latte and they make it perfectly every single time. The interior is also very beautiful.

    Coffee was amazing and good service despite being short staffed. Even gave us a complimentary drink for waiting longer than usual. Thanks Dova!

    The food was okay overall, but a few things could be better. The chilaquiles didn't come with eggs, which was a bit surprising, and there was an extra charge to add them. The kids' pancake, unfortunately, wasn't great, it was thin, dry, and overcooked, and my child didn't want to eat it. I tried it too and agreed it wasn't very good. We ordered hot chocolate, but the first one just tasted like warm milk, so we sent it back. The staff was nice about it, and the second one came out much better. The restaurant had a ton of Halloween decorations, which were fun, but a few were a little too scary for my child and even myself. The staff kindly let us move to a different table, which I really appreciated. Prices felt a bit high for what we got. I get that it's a small café, but the food quality didn't quite match the cost. We went on a Saturday morning, right when they opened and they were still cleaning the floors and windows. It smelled heavily like PineSol in the restaurant. The smells went away eventually but we were thinking of leaving from the strong smell, as they were mopping right in front of our table as well. Overall, I think this place has potential, if they improve the food, adjust the pricing a little, and tone down the decor, it could be a really nice spot.

    Had this spot on my places to visit for a while and I'm glad we finally had a chance to go. The salsa verde chilaquiles skillet with carnitas, oh my goodness sooooo good! Definitely had a nice spicy kick, portions were pretty big. My husband got the fajitas skillet, he thought my chilaquiles skillet had more flavor. My daughter got the kids pancake plate, portion was actually pretty big and we stole a bit Of the pancakes (they were so good) I wouldn't mind getting the pancakes myself next time. Lattes were definitely on the sweet side but they had just run out of cold brew. Excited to Come back soon and try other things on the menu.

    So cute interior decor

    When in Ontario, you gotta stop here this place DOVA , is fairly new about a year old. The owners and the staff are so nice and accommodating. As we first walked in my mom was complaining of the heat and I asked them where it was a good spot to sit because she was hot and they understood they actually brought out a fan just for her and put it right there next to her. I thought wow that's so kind of you to do that. The Resturant itself is so cute with the red pinkish flowers throughout and let me tell you they had Sade playing the entire time and really really good music which makes the biggest difference for me in a restaurant. Ambience is everything. They do have vegan options YAY.. which I absolutely love alongside with regular food both delicious. Everything was fresh and tasty. Oh, and by the way, they have the best café de olla. The owner's Sandra and Anthony are so humble. They take the time to actually speak to the customers , greet and thank them for their patronage there. I love that I hope this place is here for a long time. I will definitely be going back. So, if you are in Ontario California, come stop by.

    The aesthetics are EVERYTHING !!!! Such a cute little brunch spot in ontario, came in on a Saturday party of three, got seated right away. Service was great ! Got to meet the owners, who were a brother and sister. Just starting a business. The brother was the one who designed the interior which was so cute !!! Honestly love it !!! The drinks were great ! Loved how strong it was! Not too sweet !! I just feel like they should elevate their food a little more. The potatoes were more on the softer side. The pricing was decent but expected more from the food. Definitely coming back !!! Must try spot in the IE !!

    After almost a year, I decided to try this place out again. Guess what, the wait time to get our food did not change. Last time, we left without getting our food, this time we decided to sit it out. 45 mins later and I still don't go have my food. Here's what gets me, there are 5 front of the house employees, so if the kitchen is short staffed that should've been expressed to us as we were seated. I don't know why I decided to try again. Regardless of the taste of the food, I would not be back. This is unacceptable. I'm thoroughly disappointed yet again. I'll be posting the receipt later since the business owner doesn't believe I was there.

    Classic Benny; Delicious! So far the best Benedict I've ever had.

    I visited for a second time, hoping to enjoy the food as much as I did on my first visit, but unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. The food didn't taste anything like before (I'm convinced there was a different chef), and the service was poor. Although the restaurant wasn't busy, it took a while for the staff to seat us, and they ended up bringing the wrong orders while forgetting items we asked for. The omelet my friend received was the strangest I've seen--very thin and made entirely of egg whites--and according to my friend, it didn't taste great. My eggs Benedict was also incorrect, and when we both ordered the café horchata, they arrived cold and tasted completely different from each other. (Forgot to take pics for reference) One thing I do appreciate is that they removed both dishes from our bill due to the issues, though we were still charged for the horchata. I really wanted to like this place, but sadly, I won't be returning.

    Maybe we just got some bad luck here but our experience was definitely not great. The food is not worth the price we had to ask our waitress to fix way too much I ordered the steak and eggs steak was flavorless borderline unseasoned and my over medium eggs were definitely overcooked and my toast forgotten. The second round of eggs were ALSO overcooked. At that point we gave up because we didnt want to bother our server another time. My aunt ordered chilaquiles which came criminally under sauced and the chicken was rubbery. My friend ordered at $9 plate of carnitas which was dry and the portion was extremely small for $9 Our server initially checked on us fast but we asked for a little more time and then waited another 15 minutes before we asked an employee who said theyd get the server but then no one came so we had to call after someone else another 10 minutes later. Wait time in general was ridiculous we were there over an hour and half and still didnt have all our food on the table. the waitress didnt seem to be paying attention to the kitchen window and they weren't notifying her either. Also we waited extremely long and paid $16 for a dutch baby that was smaller than my friends hand. HOWEVER the owner came over and was very apologetic and receptive to our feedback. We hope they can improve from here on out! The inside was very cute and the latte was good.

    Hubby and I were in the area and needed some food and found this spot and omg am so glad we went in! Parking is scarce but we found a spot. We had my maltipoo with us and we're gonna order to go but they graciously allowed us to bring her in and I am so grateful! My furbaby is 10 yo and fell asleep:) and we were overwhelmed with the menu but asked and got some recommendations and they hit the spot! Hubs got the French toast and loved it! I got the chilaquiles verdes and they were delicious! Am now obsessed with their cafe de olla! Will definitely be back!!

    Welcome back for another episode of Delicious with Zach!…read moreToday we tried a Carlotta, Pineapple Drop, Palmiers, Turkey & Cheese Croissant and Monkey Bread Carlotta - 10/10 Absolutely delicious. The texture, the bright lemon flavor, not overly sweet, and full of fresh flavor. Everything was perfectly balanced and on point. Pineapple Drop - 8.75/10 I was expecting the cookie to be a bit drier, but that was just my initial assumption. The pineapple flavor came through nicely and wasn't overly sticky or "tacky." Palmiers - 10/10 Baked to perfection. Flaky, soft, with the perfect amount of crunch. The flavor was beautifully balanced and those sugar crystals were delicious. Felt like I was sitting in a South American bakery. Turkey & Cheese Croissant - 7.92/10 The croissant itself was perfect, the turkey was good, and the cheese was just okay. In fairness, we only ordered this because they were out of the ham & cheese croissants (which we love). If I had never tried the ham & cheese version, this one would probably land in the high 8s or low 9s. Unfortunately, the turkey & cheese just didn't stand a chance against the original. Monkey Bread 10/10 Holy cow! The monkey bread can be described as addictive... the monkey bread is baked with pecans on the bottom, cherries mixed in, cinnamon and a soft dough drizzled with frosting. The monkey bread was so fresh, soft, and full of flavor. The pecans and cherries were perfectly balanced in the monkey bread creating a delicious snack. One last note: We went back up to order more palmiers and the wonderful lady working the counter (Maria) gave us a complimentary one and a monkey bread. Super kind and thoughtful; she actually helped guide us to the carlota as I was wanting a lemon bar or tart and they were out of them. She suggested the carlota and described the taste and she was perfect in Her recommendations. Maria deserves employee of the month!

It was so phenomenal that we ended up coming back twice! Visit 1: I ordered their most popular item--the Thai Tea Soft Serve with honey boba (9oz). Hands down, this is the best Thai tea soft serve I have ever tasted in California. The flavor is incredibly potent, rich, and stays completely true to a perfect soft serve texture. I ate it so fast I didn't even get a photo! My boyfriend got the same thing and added Oreo crumbs, which was a huge hit. Visit 2: I decided to explore the menu and tried the "Fire Dragon"--a black milk tea topped with crème brûlée and honey boba. It was delicious, though to make the tea more rich I recommend brewing the tea a bit longer to give that black tea flavor an extra punch against the rich cream. My little brother ordered the Thai tea soft serve with boba and Oreo crumbs (16oz) and his instant verdict was: "When can we come back?" The service both times was exceptionally kind, informative, fast, and welcoming. Thank you for always smiling and serving up the absolute best Thai tea in the Inland Empire!

I normally don't leave reviews like this, but I felt it was important to share our experience. I truly hope this was an isolated incident, especially on a busy holiday, but I also hope food handling and quality control are looked into so no other families have to spend Mother's Day ending like ours did.
