Asked for a well toasted English muffin and had to send it back since it wasn't toasted at all. Took another 10 minutes to get it but only after I asked where it was twice. By the time it arrived I really could have skipped it. Luckily I was able to slam the check so didn't have to wait for someone to appear at the register. Going back w a group soon and hoping service/kitchen has worked out some of the hiccups in food prep and delivery.

I'm really fond of fresh food, especially freshly squeezed juice. I came across this restaurant on…read moreYelp and was eager to try it for brunch. When we arrived, the place looked spotless and inviting. I ordered the smoked salmon Benedict served with a side salad and a refreshing green kale juice. The bread for the Benedict was quite tough, making it hard to cut, and the hollandaise sauce lacked some flavor. Nonetheless, the juice was definitely the highlight of my meal. During our visit, I was wearing a long white skirt when an accident happened--glasses were accidentally dropped next to me, shattering and spilling red liquid onto my skirt in several spots. The server sincerely apologized, and I asked for a Tide pen to try and clean the stains. She said she would check with her manager and come back, but unfortunately, she never returned to our table. Since the spill occurred before our food arrived, they didn't offer to clean my skirt or provide a discount. I tried to wash the stain out before it set, but I was still wearing a wet skirt. Luckily, I had a spare pair of pants in the car--though they didn't match my outfit, I was grateful to have something dry to change into for brunch.

I ordered the chimichuri steak and eggs hash, strawberry tes leches french toast, and the pineapple express. I got my food sooner than I expected. I love how spacious the restaurant is compared to other locations I've been to. The bathroom was clean as well. Pineapple express- This drink was tasty. I would definitely get it again. I was able to taste hints of everything without the pineapple taste being masked. Chimichuri steak and eggs hash- The star of the show and the twinkle in my eye. The steak was cooked perfectly . The dish was seasoned well. The potatoes melted into my mouth. All the ingredients went together perfectly! Strawberry tres leches french toast - I was eating bite after bite with bliss. Every bite was good. Suddenly I looked down and saw an object that in my French toast. It was a top from the whipped cream (I'm assuming) . It was definitely a plastic top. I did let the waitress know. My dish was remade. The manager made it right and I didn't have to pay for it.!! Overall my experience here was good and my food was good. Even with the mishap, it was no argument. It was a simple apology and correction (love it) I'll be back

The food is amazing, the service is spectacular, the prices are good. The restaurant is always clean, even the bathrooms are always clean. Everyone is so friendly and happy. They have booths, tables and you can also sit at the bar. They have a very generous menu. They serve healthy food and it's tasty food. They close at three, so make sure to check their hours before you go. There is almost always a line on Saturday and Sunday, sometimes people wait an hour to eat. During the week, there's usually seating. They have specials every day. They have amazing looseleaf tea. They sell various products. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I did have to ask to make sure there was no egg involved based on the soft, perfectly thin pancake sheets that arrived on my plate, if you're worried that the quality might suffer from the conversion. Rest assured, both the Ratatouille and Fajita can compete with the best of them. The only question now is if you would prefer savory and comforting, or spicy and invigorating. They don't hold back on the smoky chipotles for the fajita veggies, so beware for those with lower heat tolerance! I will admit that the "ratatouille" felt more like marinara, missing clear evidence of eggplants, zucchinis, or peppers, but a lovely tomato ragu all the same. Excellent value, too, since you get a nice little fresh side salad and decent portion size for $12.50 plus tax and tip. It's a cute cafe that's hopping during weekend brunch, but still has plenty of seating and space for a leisurely meal. Definitely worth repeating, any day of the week.

We didn't die, but I can't recommend this place…read more The Sign on the Door says HELP WANTED. Eating at a restaurant that is short staffed is always risky. But in this case, they may need some help from someone who can teach them the fundamentals of running a restaurant. * * * This is a crepe place but they have an extensive menu of other items. In fact, the menu is huge, given the small size of the establishment and the relatively small amount of business they get. This means that a lot of their perishables are going to go bad unless they use a lot of frozen ingredients. If they use frozen ingredients, they need to figure out how to defrost those items quickly. (This is foreshadowing.) It also means if they are short staffed that there will be many items that the cook has not fully learned how to prepare due to lack of practice. (Foreshadowing.) * * * There was a very amateur cook in the kitchen our night. This being a creperie, a typical order would be serving the savory crepes first and the sweet crepes second. The sweet crepes are usually dessert. We ordered a savory crepe, a sweet crepe and a sandwich with french fries off of the sandwich menu. The cook, being pressed for time, cooked all of the crepes first, and then made the sandwich and the fries. So we got the dessert crepe and the main course crepe at the same time. So we either had to eat them both at the same time or one of them had to get cold waiting for the first crepe to be finished. While we were struggling through the crepes, The bacon pesto chicken ciabatta came. That had to sit while we finished our crepes. So by the time we got to our "main course" after "dessert", The fries were stone cold and soggy. The sandwich was leaden. The ciabatta might as well have been a cannonball. The room temperature chicken and bacon were okay as long as you avoided the ciabatta. * * * The room is not a pleasant place to sit in. Some of this is not the owner's fault. They are right at the intersection of I-35 and I-45/Hester's Crossing. Giant concrete highway ramps dominate the view. The rest is parking lot. * * * However, the owner makes things far worse by having large TV screens that display commercials for why you should come to his restaurant. So a wide variety of menu items are displayed with the TV urging you to Come and Try This! Come and Try That! Come and Try the Next Item! How About This Item? * * * Advertising is supposed to bring customers into your store. If they are already in your store, then you do not need more advertising. Once the customers are IN your store, you need to try to give them a pleasant wonderful experience, so they decide to come back the next time. No one goes out for a night on the town to watch commercials for the night club that they are in. * * * Plus, if it is irritating to watch commercials, It is 400 times more irritating to watch the same commercial on a loop being repeated over and over and over and over and over again. Repetition kills the charm of whatever you put on the TV the first time. * * * Back to ingredients coming out of the freezer. My sweet crepe was a mango crepe with some other minor flavoring. Mango is a fantastic thing to put into a crepe. The crepe we got was 1/3 frozen, 2/3 cooked. * * * When I pointed out the frozen mango to the waitress, She was sweet and kind and lovely and sympathetic. She gave us a free banana muffin to compensate us for our woes. * * * This is not a bakery, so undoubtedly the muffin was brought in from an outside provider. It was awful. It had a bad chemical taste that probably came from using low grade artificial banana flavoring. Either the muffins came from an associate of the provider, or the muffins were selected because they were relatively cheap. On baked goods, you get what you pay for. * * * I suspect cheap, because inappropriate cheapness also showed up in the furniture. The chairs are upholstered golden fabric Middle Eastern chairs with a flocked texture that were undoubtedly were beautiful once. The store has only been open a few months, But those chairs were showing the signs of years of wear and tear. I am fairly sure those dingy chairs were purchased used. The chairs were the first thing we saw. First impressions matter. * * * I hope the owner learns from his experience when he opens his second restaurant. His first restaurant won't last long.
