This location is in a shared plaza with lots of parking. It has a smallish eating area but you walk up to the counter to order and then they will bring it out to you. The service at the counter was good. It was awesome to see a lot of gluten free and dairy free items. I was super excited to have gluten free chicken and waffle as I haven't had that in years. My husband got a vegan waffle and an omelet with a piece of carrot cake. The location has high ceilings and is pretty and open. The food came out at different times so my husband had to wait a bit for his waffle after his omelet arrived. The gluten free chicken and waffle was really good. I did have a bit of sticker shock when we paid.
Found this place on a whim when we didn't have a breakfast spot picked out. GREAT for us gluten free folks! Can get a little busy which we saw towards the end of our dining there. They aren't a huge establishment but spacious enough for about 10 groups or couples. Anyhow, the real star is how much they offer that is gluten free and how friendly their service is! I was very pleased with the price for the size of the dishes. I mean you get a gluten free Belgian waffle with berries (if you add them) and two HUGE fried chicken tenders. Oh, and the fresh squeezed OJ is delicious! Plenty of parking reserved for that strip mall versus YMCA so no issues there.
If you're looking for a meal that runs the cost of a bean & cheese taco, this isn't the place. If you're looking for a meal that is ready in two minutes, this isn't the place. If you're looking for made-from-scratch, scrumptious food that is prepared only once ordered, this IS the place! Between the three of us we had Belgium waffles with strawberries and whipped cream; the Elise breakfast sandwich with a fried egg, arugula, tomato, avocado and cheese (black beans and crunchy fried potato cubes as sides ... hubby ate half of my potatoes they were so good); and the Elise platter with eggs, pancakes and turkey bacon. I brought half my sandwich home (with the two sides I was stuffed!) but no leftovers on the other two plates. Wiped clean! The coffee was HOT and delicious. Nothing worse than lukewarm coffee in our opinion. Steady stream of customers while we were there and while a little small in the eating area, we had no trouble finding a table.
1. Atmospheres Really nice. Small but clean and fresh. Workers are friendly too. But plates were kind of dirty, water stains on the cups and utensils. 2. Coffee Coffee was my favorite. The cortado was especially good! 3. Food The food was really good overall, too. One issue is that Avocado toast do not use Sourdough although the menu says it is. I wish them to fix the menu because sourdough and white-bread aren't the same. Overall, nice little cafe. Drink is recommended, menu description can improve as their hygiene.
Elise Cuisine was absolutely wonderful. The food is delicious and clearly made with clean, quality ingredients. We ordered the pancakes, the Elise sandwich, and the buffalo chicken sandwich, and every single dish was a hit. My husband and kids were raving about how good everything tasted. The environment was clean and welcoming, and the staff was incredibly friendly, making it a truly family-friendly spot. The best part, though, is knowing that the food is prayed over daily -- that intentional care and love really shows in the experience. We'll definitely be back!
Elise Cuisine SA, Texas Visited: Weekday Morning in March Order Highlights: Chicken & Waffles, Elise Sandwich, Hot Tea, Vegan Pastries 3.5/10 Stars Cozy cafe feel, curtailed by religious slew; Service was superb. Chicken and Waffles best dish, Opt vegan, pricing tad high. #Tanka #PoemReview (Tanka poems are traditional poems similar to the non-rhyming Haiku, but with the 5-7-5-7-7 syllable format.)
Y'all need to stop sleeping on this place! It's healthy, delicious, and so completely wholesome! Went in with some coworkers to have breakfast while discussing upcoming tasks at work. On the drive in, we say Black Bear, IHOP, and Cracker Barrel packed and people waiting out in the cold. We drove up to Elise Cuisine and it was EMPTY! No 40+ minute wait for a seat. It smelled delicious and food was reasonably priced. The ambiance of this little cafe was so relaxing and filled with kindness, there was even a well-loved Bible open to the book of Psalms with handwritten notes about discernment! The food? Nothing short of delicious! All three of us ate every bite of food on our plates and one of us even took a slice of carrot cake to go for an afternoon office snack. The Elise sandwich and the mushroom spinach soup were healthy and perfectly filling. One of my coworkers had the Elise Breakfast, which included soy-chorizo that she said was surprisingly good for a plant-based meat alternative. We all agreed that the potatoes were delicious. Stop sleeping on this cute little restaurant. The staff are warm and welcoming and the whole place is full of love and blessings, from wall to wall.
The flavors were melting on my tongue, absolutely incredible! An amazing breakfast place that everyone should visit. The owner was so sweet and clearly passionate about her product. The food felt homemade, and the quality really showed.
Stopping in for breakfast, I start off by ordering a London Fog tea then add the pecan French toast and the veggie omelet with side potatoes, fruit and toast. The London Fog is delicious and hits the spot while waiting for my meal. When the food arrives and smells appetizing. The French toast was a nice golden brown and after adding some butter and syrup it didn't last long. The mix of the pecans with the syrup was a nice surprise. At this point I order a Chai tea latte and that was also very tasty. Next, the veggie omelet was also perfectly made with a mix of spinach, mushrooms, tomato, onions, and cheese that all blended together to provide a great flavor profile. The toast was nice and golden brown, and the fruit was fresh and juicy. Overall, I really like the freshness of all the ingredients used and the quality of the food that comes out so I will be back to try more of the menu.
This restaurant was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, all the workers were so nice and welcoming, and the whole feel of the restaurant was perfect. We came for a quick trip to San Antonio and this was genuinely the best food we've had so far- if we ever come back we'll definitely return here!!!
We tried this place out because a co-worker described the place as being scrumptious. The menu states it is not certified gluten-free. But they do have several gluten free breakfast options such as a Belgian of waffle, chicken and waffles, pancakes, French toast, and oatmeal of course. The lunch menu has very few gluten free options. It looks like just the salads and the chicken fingers are labeled as GF. MOst of the rest of the lunch menu is non gluten free sandwiches and bread based options. The place is brand new and just opened and it has a little bit of the sterile feel to it, but in a few weeks, I'm sure it will feel much more homey inside. I ordered the gluten free vanilla Belgian waffle with a hazenut Chai latte and my husband ordered the biscuit, egg and cheese biscuit with Turkey bacon added. The waffle was incredible, better than some non-gf waffles I've had at other restaurants. And the chai latte was also delicious. My husband enjoyed his generous portioned sandwich. It had nice flavor, and was cooked well. The biscuit was light and fluffy despite being vegan. Overall, we agree with the coworker, this place was scrumptious. I would like to see more GF options for lunch. But, for a good price, good food, and friendly people this is worth coming back for breakfast. Get it before they get too busy though, as the restaurant only seats about 36 people. :)
Great options, friendly staff very cute inside. I had me the gluten-free banana, walnut pancakes and a sugar-free caramel latte. I thought it was delicious. Definitely will be back. Loved the atmosphere here.
This was a very cute place we visited recently through recommendations. The place was very clean and the people were friendly. The place is small with few tables and can imagine them getting crowded easily. They also offer some good vegan options here. We came at a time when there weren't many folks here and found a table easy (was around 1pm). They do cook the food fresh, so expect to wait a bit before you get your stuff. Ours took around 15-20 minutes to come out. I had ordered migas con huevo, and it tasted great. Mine had peppers, tomatoes, onions , and a good amount of cheese. I did try it with the salsa given and gave it some good flavors. The other sauce was actually jelly, which was amazing! I was dipping my toast in it and wish I could have taken the jelly to go. Potatoes were alright, but the salsa made them taste better. My brother ordered vegan pancakes, and it looked very pretty. It has a lot of fruit on top of it and the pancakes tasted good too. I would even order it again, though I wish they offered vegan butter with it. The waffles my mom ordered were decent as well but not much special to them. Overall, it was a great experience and would absolutely come back here. It is a bit pricey though and closes early (around 3:30pm) so be aware.
Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the fresh, flavorful food, friendly and welcoming staff, and a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Went out to treat myself and ordered a regular vanilla waffle with banana and pecans and a unsweetened hibiscus for $24.21 (including 15% tip). Waffle was the star of the show def not some frozen crap. Place was clean and I came during an empty hour, so service was fast. read more

Came for breakfast and wasn't quite sure what to expect but my post game review is this place is da bomb diggity. The food was great, the coffee (Cortado) was excellent and everyone enjoyed their meals. We did the breakfast burrito, the turkey omelette, the French toast, and a kids breakfast. All three items were tasty, good sized, and wonderful. As Arnold would say, I'll be back. read more
We pass by all the time & finally got to try this place. Food: 9/10 really filling & was able to order from kids menu Service: 10/10 the food did take a while to come out so be aware, I did not mind the wait Ambiance: 9/10 really huge space. Self serve when it comes to water, forks/spoons etc. Can't wait to be back & eat more food read more

So very disappointed with the cleanliness. Just watched the person wipe tables down and just wipe food and trash to the floor. Cleaned one counter of dishes and left the food droppings on the bar. Waited 30 minutes for our meal. The French toast was great. The fresh squeezed orange juice was wonderful Just wish they did better with cleaning because it makes you wonder about the cleaning in the back too Told owner about it and she didn't seem too concerned. read more

Stopped while out shopping to get some breakfast. Everything was ok, not bad but not great either. I ordered the waffle. It wasn't hot so I know it wasn't made to order. Side of potatoes were good and sausage was good. Our coffees were also just ok. read more
I have not gone here in person yet, but I have ordered from DoorDash and I have really enjoyed my food every single time. They always get my order right and my food is always nice and warm. I'm looking forward to going in person sometime soon since it has a nice breakfast / brunch menu. read more

What a nice little spot! The minute we walked in, we were greeted by the cooks and the counter (even if it was 8:00 on Black Friday). The cashier asked if this was our first time here and welcomed us. I had the sourdough French toast and turkey sausage (no pork served here) and they were both delicious. The maple butter sauce really made the French toast. The gingerbread latte was delicious! I loved how it was served in a mason jar. It just elevated my drink. The only reason why I gave this establishment 4 stars is because their juice is bottled, not fresh squeezed or served in a glass. You will need to go up to the counter to order and you get your own utensils at the condiment bar, but they will take your food to you. This small business supports their faith (Christian?) and says a little prayer over each order that goes out. They don't push their religion, but sometimes that might make people feel uncomfortable. All in all, this small business is definitely a place to check out! read more
This place was small and cozy, I ordered the avocado toast which was a big portion and very delicious! I also ordered an iced coffee which was so bland, so bitter and honestly one of the worst coffees I ever tasted. I asked for 2 raw sugars to see if that would help and they only brought me one since they had them behind the counter. Which I thought was a little bizarre and had to annoyingly ask again for another one but it's fine. The French toast was flavorful and the berries were fresh and sweet! I'd come back for the food but I would just avoid the coffee. read more

The staff were attentive and the food came out quickly but it was just ok. I ordered vegan French toast it was dry and slightly burnt on one side as the sourdough slices were regular sandwich bread slices so kinda thin for French toast. The breakfast potatoes were cut larger than I'd have liked and although I could see the seasoning added after cooking they were bland. The vegan sausage patty was a basic morning star patty. They advertised a hot orange ginger turmeric tea but that was unavailable so I had fresh OJ instead. It's a cozy space but is excessively religious in decor. read more

Arrived on a Saturday around 1pm, small seating area, but we're lucky that there were extra room for 3! I got the Chicken Pesto Sandwich, which I enjoyed, and my son liked the chicken too. For 14 bucks, it's good for having 2 sides and felt like portion was pretty decent. The soup of the day was salty for us though. Chicken and waffles were okay, chicken was a bit tough for my son. Elise smoothie was made fresh! No substitutions. Ordered at around 115, got our food at 145. Service was great! Everyone was nice. read more

My favorite restaurant is a small, local restaurant. There's always a little charm to it. The food is always made with care and it always seems healthier. This is this type of restaurant. I went for lunch thinking I was going to get breakfast, but ended up getting a sandwich instead. My friend and I did share a waffle as dessert. I got the chicken pesto sandwich, but made it vegetarian. I don't know exactly what made it vegetarian besides removing the chicken. I will say I expected a substitution for it besides more arugula since it was pricier. Regardless, it was delicious. The portion was big enough to take half of it home. You get a choice of two sides. I decided to continue being a little healthier and got the side salad and the lentil soup. The lentil soup is one of the best lentil soups I've had. Great flavor. I could've eaten a bowl of lentil soup for lunch and been satisfied. The salad is arugula with some quinoa and a vinaigrette. The waffle comes with a dusting of powdered sugar. Waffle was delicious. Great dessert for us. I did notice they have a case of desserts. I was too full to try any. I did try the London fog tea. Since it was a hot summer day, I got it are iced. Loved it. The staff was friendly. The restaurant is small. Seating was almost full when I arrived on a Wednesday at lunch. I did notice that they were able to reserve a table for a big party coming in. Not sure if they do that often. Parking is available on site, but shared with the other businesses. Parking won't be an issue read more
