    Tucked inside the ever-bustling Cimarron Plaza, The Grove Brunch Café feels like the kind of place that gets brunch on a higher level -- equal parts aesthetic, intentional, and flavorful. I stopped by post-workout and ordered a to-go meal, but couldn't resist starting with their Butterfly Tea Latte (unsweetened). It's visually stunning -- a dreamy bluish-violet hue that looks almost too pretty to sip -- and surprisingly balanced, earthy, and light. Think matcha's sophisticated cousin with antioxidant flair. I also tried the Healthy Asian Salad, and let's just say it truly lives up to its name -- maybe too much. I'm a self-proclaimed health junkie, but this one felt like foraging directly from the sea. Gigantic leafy greens, earthy mushrooms, some kind of seaweed situation... it was fresh, yes, but I found myself feeling like I was eating straight out of the ocean. Admirably wholesome, just not my jam. Next time, I've got my eye on their vegan bowl, which looks much more my speed. The menu overall is impressively expansive, thoughtfully inclusive of vegan and vegetarian options, and brimming with what I'd call "elevated casual" plates. My waitress was fantastic -- warm, attentive, and effortlessly cool -- matching the vibey energy of the space itself. The interior is chic yet inviting, with indoor and outdoor seating perfect for El Paso's sunny brunch culture. If there's one thing that surprises me, it's the hours. For such a popular, food-forward plaza, closing at 4 p.m. feels almost criminal -- those folks with 9-to-5s can only dream of a late-day Grove fix. Still, when you do catch them open, it's a genuinely delightful spot that makes brunch feel intentional rather than routine.

    This review has been suiting in my drafts. My visit was October 29, 2019. Yep. Still have the photos on my phone. Wait to be seated. Inside or out. Communal seating at bar and square table by bar behind hostess station. Entire menu served all day. Always a plus! Cold syrup. Powdered sugar from Korea so not as sweet. Owners are Korean. Next to Keg and a brew. Limited parking in front.

    There's a time and place for everything. On a busy Saturday lunch hour, is not the time to be dancing behind the bar with your coworkers and ignoring your customers. I walked in and since I'm a single person, I want to go to the bar. I sat there watching the bartender just mosey around and at first, was completely ignoring my presence. "Am I invisible?!" No greeting, no acknowledging, just a sloppy leisure walk and she had no care to be at work. Eventually she approached and asked if I'd like something to drink...(what gave you that idea, I'm sitting at the bar?) Well, I'd been sitting there for almost 10 minutes, so I wanted to try their Bloody Mary (the one with the meat and cheese skewer). She never explained there were two different ones or even gave me an option. I would've spent the $15+ on the other, but I guess that would've been too much work for her. Another 10-15 minutes go by and she asked if I'd like something food. Sure, I guess I'd built up an appetite watching the staff do nothing but gossip behind the bar. I ended up ordering the Crab Cake Benedict. After another 5-10 minutes pass, she comes back and states they're out of their house potatoes. (Of course) So I substitute for sweet potato fries, and since I have made it this far with my first time not so great experience at this establishment, and I am determined to not come back. (In the meantime, she'd also forgot about the couple sitting next to me the remainder of their order after they were almost done.) Long story short, I was not impressed with quantity of food and quality of service. For such a nice establishment, they need to do better!

    Fun experience at the Grove at the Canyons (Cimmaron). It was a good visit trying out this location. I drive by the one east of the mountains and we are lucky to have this one so close. Monique, our server, made sure we had everything we needed. She was great. The kids got their usual, but I wanted to try their Huevos rancheros with a side of pork belly. The plate itself is two tortillas with fresh queso topped with eggs your way and topped with ranchero sauce. The additional protein certainly was worth it to add more to the dish. If I were to do it again, I might try it with the chicken, but ribeye was also available ( I just don't think I would it Gina's well with the sauce). I did get to see the the jicama pork belly tacos. You get three tacos wrapping pork belly slices with pickled jicama slices. Interestingly delicious. I wished their portions were bigger for some of their dishes, others are rightly sized. Their pancakes are big, for instance. It was brunch so we got to see what came out of the kitchen. I would like to try their Chilaquiles and burgers, next time. Also we tried their tiramisu while we waited for our table...it was very good Looking forward to the next visit.

    Brunch Burger with Fries

    My wife and I came in on a Sunday afternoon around 2 PM to take advantage of the brunch menu and celebrate a family birthday. We called earlier that morning to make a reservation for our large party of 9, which I highly recommend. The seating inside the restaurant is limited, specifically for large parties. The time we went was super busy and we ended up being sat outside in their patio seating. The patio seating isn't bad, however it was very windy that day, and the wind was catching certain parts of our table, making it uncomfortable to eat. Of course this isn't the restaurant's fault or anything, but it affected our experience nonetheless. Our server was mostly attentive, although there were numerous occasions that we had to go looking for him to ask for something--refills, silverware, etc. He did okay, but could have been better. Food-wise I'll stick with reviewing what I ordered--I decided to go with the "Brunch Burger:" a burger with house-made bacon jam, fresh arugula, Dijon mustard, havarti cheese, and an egg. It came with a side of fries. My burger was just okay. Nothing special. I ordered it medium, but it came out more med-well to borderline well done, but I wasn't going to send it back and wait more. The combination of the other ingredients was fine, but again, it wasn't amazing or anything. Fries were crisp. Overall our visit was okay, I would probably order something different the next time around if we came back!

    The English breakfast. Great service.  Thank you Janice!

    Great service and good variety of food. when you're looking for something different for brunch. Casual, relaxing decor.

    Well, one year later, we hope this place would have improved. When this place first opened, the food was amazing, however, its been consistently pretty bad. The omelette was super salty and greasy. The steak in the salad was overcooked. The server was very nice, however nonexistent. She came over at the beginning and completely interrupted our conversation. We asked for the music to be turned down slightly so we could hear each other because it sounded like we were in a nightclub. Mind you this was at 12 noon on a weekday. Don't get me wrong, I love to play loud music and dance and go to clubs, however, this is not the time or the place. Loud music seems to be a reoccurring issue in El Paso restaurants. I'd like to add that we waited about half an hour for the food to come out and only two out of the four plates came out so part of our party got to eat their food first, which is very rude. Somebody needs to let servers there know that serving all the people at the table at the same time is good etiquette. How do you get a job at a restaurant without knowing this? Do the managers train the staff? From my experience the quieter, the restaurant, the more elegant, and classier the establishment. This place needs new cooks, possibly with some cooking experience. This is a reason why we don't go out to eat anymore. Unless we see some improvements in the restaurants around us, it's just not worth it to go out anymore. Why go to a loud restaurant where you can't even talk to the people you want to catch up with? If you want to go to a club go at night. If you want to drink go to a bar.

    The Bailey's French toast was amazing !! The flavors mixed so well and it wasn't overly sweet like it may seem.
    Jaclynn E.

    The Bailey's French toast was so yummy. The house coffee was a bit weak, but otherwise it was a solid breakfast all around.

    Chilaquiles-green...fab!!

    This is for today only and their limited time turkey havarti sandwich on "homemade" ciabatta...aka a thick dry biscuit. Very little turkey. Huge chunk of dry bread. Do not recommend. It looks nothing like the picture. It was awful and I'm kicking myself for not sending it back. $17 wasted. Good thing it's a limited time. I'll stick to my tried and true favs and not try anything new because most times they hit it out of the park. Still hoping someone will take the advice of taking the nasty air freshener out of the bathrooms. It's toxic and overwhelming.

    Strawberry mojito and flavored margarita
    Diane M.

    Food was good. Huevos rancheros did not look as I had expected. They were drowned in red salsa. Looked more like huevos montados but they were good. Good flavor and I ate it all. Friend had the border burger and she said it was delicious. Strawberry mojito was so refreshing and perfectly sweet. Friend had a flavored margarita and she was also very happy with her drink. Unfortunately, service was not good. We absolutely would have ordered another round but we sat with empty drinks and empty water for quite some time. Even after I asked for water, it was some time before she came back with it. Service really disappointed us. We were excited abt meeting for brunch and it wasn't the experience that it could have been.

    Veggie omelet
    Tammy E.

    My friend and coworker recommended this place so of course I had to try it! I had wanted to order the Shakshuka but they don't have that item on their menu anymore :( If you are looking for this the place next door has it! Instead I ordered a veggie omelet/scramble with salad in lieu of breakfast sides. It came with a meager sampling of avocado on top and was pretty standard as far as eggs go. There was a 20 minute wait upon arrival but once seated service was quick and water was refilled promptly whenever glasses were empty. Parking was hard to find in this shopping center and there was little shade to be found!
