    Eggs are fluffy well seasoned potatoes and the avocado made it!!
    Liz D.

    Found this little gem near my office. The service was fast and friendly. The prices are good. My burrito was huge!! Very happy with this breakfast.

    Breakfast Box. $4.00 Eggs, potatoes, sausage & cheese. What a Deal!

    Food was great, service is friendly, price is extremely low. 2 tables and a counter inside. 3 tables outside.

    Try the Chicken Bacon Ranch, It's Awesome
    Don L.

    Since I found this tucked away Gold Mine, we have gone back every Tuesday to enjoy the food at Francos Cafe. So many things to choose from. Just had the Chicken Tenders and Fries, one of my favorites. This Mom and Pop shop serves Breakfast and Lunch items. They have a Breakfast special starting out at $3.70. Their breakfast burritos are packed, the Chicken Sandwiches are gigantic. Very big!!!! They have salads also. Opened Monday thru Friday. it's a great choice. Off Hwy 50 at Zinfandel exit. Everything is so tasty. Seating inside and outside. Great prices and very friendly owners. Give it a try!!!! It also has Hamburgers and Hot Dogs!

None of that icy, thick or sometimes even watery concoction that you buy from other places mixed with who knows what.

She shared the history of the space, her story of how Mimo came to be as well as her passion for design and marketing. You see her work throughout the store.

I decided to stop by for a late lunch around 2 PM today, and it was easy to find and not busy at all. Choosing what to try was the hardest part because everything looked so good! I went savory this time and ordered a sandwich with chicken, bacon, corn, and cream cheese, plus a side of their famous Brazilian bread. They have a tablet for placing orders, which I used--it was quick and easy, and the staff at the counter was super friendly. My order took about 10 minutes, freshly made, and there was a small language barrier, but the staff was incredibly sweet. They even explained, using a translator, that next time I could order online and have it ready for pickup if I wanted to skip the wait. I also noticed they have a lot of promotions via QR codes on the menu and even on their bags--so thoughtful! I really appreciated the personal touch--my bag even had my name with a little smiley face on it, which was such a sweet touch. Portions were generous, and the food was fulfilling and delicious. I'll definitely be back to try a sweet treat next time--maybe an açaí bowl or a coffee. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for fresh, flavorful, and gluten-free-friendly Brazilian eats!

    *Celebrating Woman- owned Bella Bru!*…read more This is a review shouting out about the BEST pastries and coffee drinks which I enjoy whenever I am anywhere near the Carmichael, Bella Bru location! And today was no exception. This is a long-time casual and comfortable cafe which has loyally been serving the neighborhood well. Breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. The Community people count their lucky stars to have Bella Bru (and it's Luna Lounge) providing whatever it is you might want in terms of coffees, bakery items, main food items, wine... all served in a beautiful, modern and clean atmosphere. Dog friendly patio, bike parking and plenty of free public parking too! Wish I lived closer. I would be having my coffee and breakfast weekly in the lovely outdoors! Or my HH wine/cocktails. Service is wonderful! I have always received 5-star Yelp customer service from Bella Bru employees. Definitely service with a smile. I could not resist stopping by today and grabbing an oatmeal and a peanut butter homemade cookie to take home for dessert. They are soooo good! Treat yourself and become a regular too so you can enjoy all the delicious goodies/food Bella Bru has to offer. Yum!

Our server was friendly and efficient coming around at just the perfect time. The gentlemen that dropped off our food as also great, offering us extra plates for sharing our dish. I ordered the cab off the happy hour menu. It hit the spot. My friend and I shared the fire roasted artichoke which was cooked perfectly, with a little char just how we like it. The aioli dipping sauce was very flavorful and the perfect compliment. The bread and butter were nice too. Great place to meet up with a friend or a mellow date night. If you're around when they have their quiche make sure you order it as it's to die for!

There was lots of parking right in front of the restaurant that made getting inside super convenient. There was plenty of room for us to sit at a large table with our babies in high chairs & strollers nearby. Inside the cafe is decorated very nicely. The staff were so kind and welcoming too. I ordered a mocha and the sweet cheese crepes. My mocha was the perfect balance of sweetness and chocolatey! I savored every sip. The real star of the show though, were the crepes. They were perfectly soft but with a slight crisp on the outside just like I like them. The filling was sweet but not overly and was well balanced with the slight bitterness from the berry topping on the crepes. Overall the ambiance, food, and accessibility make this a great spot for brunch! Will definitely be coming back.

There is also a side area to eat, however there were a number of flies buzzing around, which made it unappetizing (this was kept my review from being a full five stars). The indoor area is a mix of dark woods and faux plants, which creates a relaxed atmosphere. As for the food, there was only one plant-based (vegan friendly) option for me: the cilantro lime avocado toast. This came topped with micro greens and pickled onions, and with a side of potatoes. The portions were very generous for the price and the food was delicious. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time and the staff were kind. I also ordered an Americano that was good. This spot is like a little hidden green jewel in Citrus Heights. I hope more businesses fill out this complex so they can continue to do well.

What a surprise! I arrived around 10:30 and was the only client there. The office building itself seemed quite empty of tenants too. Not sure of what was going on in the building. The security guard was very nice and escorted me to the restaurant. I was still in time for breakfast. They had a special which I ordered. I thought it took a bit longer than it should have - an omelet and some sausage and a prebaked muffin with coffee that I served myself - but it was all good. They seemed to be working on a lot of catering orders for lunch. A mother and son came in, ordered one meal and shared it. The space is large, open, and bright. It just seemed temporary to me - not like a restaurant wanting to diners but a place to prepare their catering orders and IF a random person suddenly appeared, they could be fed. This is not an area that I frequent and so the likelihood of returning is small - not because the food wasn't tasty or the restaurant itself was unacceptable. It just is out of the way for me and though was good, I was not wowed enough to find my way back for a meal. However, if you are in the area, please check them out. A mom and pop operation that deserves support.
