The food tasted great and the dessert looked fantastic , we will definitely try it next time. The vibe was nice and the people were friendly , we also had some coffee and it was good too. I definitely recommend this place and will be back to try more of the options they offer.

After our ophthalmologist visit and hanging out at a Costco nearby and reading the reviews, we…read moredecided to come here. We were immediately seated after arriving. The restaurant is small and comfy, with 4-seat tables lined up against one wall and the opposite wall being taken up by a counter and counter seats. Pictures of food hang on both walls and four brown ceiling fans hang from the ceiling. The restaurant's color scheme is very "latte", as the main colors are white and beige and only one part of the wall is red. Daughter ordered the fried flounder with 2 over easy eggs and grits with wheat bread. She said that the fish was nicely fried and crunchy. It didn't need tartar or cocktail sauce. She said it was her first time eating a breakfast item like this and her taste buds had never felt this sensation before. LOL. Hubs ordered the pinto con chorizo with sunny side up eggs. The server warned him that the sausage was spicy, but he didn't care. When we came here, Hubs didn't expect Hispanic food for brunch and was so surprised and so happy. He found the first item that he can see and translate and was happy he did. The chorizo had a nice spunk to it. He was happy that he got rice and beans instead of home fries and what a delightful change! The chips were also nice and crispy. Lastly, I had waffles with mixed fruit. I LOVED my waffles because it was nice and crunchy. The mixed fruit were bananas, strawberries, grapes and blueberries. They were a nice touch. I was asked if I wanted whipped cream and I said yes. Coffee was freshly brewed and it was nice and strong. It wasn't ordinary diner coffee. Hubs was happy about getting his cup refilled. Service was fast and really friendly. The waiter was always smiling. Parking is street parking. When we were there, it was free parking. Neighborhood was a bit sketchy, though. We were thinking of checking out the flea market across the street but changed our minds. Glad we got to try this place! Maybe one day, we'll be back.

Soooo yummy!!! I love the waffles. This place really hit the spot and everyone there is so kind.read more

Thank goodness, that I took the time to visit Almost Home General down in Westfield. It is a GEM…read moreand let me recommend it before I even start the review. Almost Home is a trendy cafe that has gorgeous wall decor, a comfy couch (if you want to enjoy your order without a table meal), and incredible food. They also have an adjacent parking lot, which was justifiably packed. Our Server was Maddie and she did an exceptional job throughout the entire meal. She gave appreciated recommendations and her coworkers kept us comfortable and satiated. All three of the beverages were nicely presented and thoroughly enjoyed: Pistachio Latte, Pumpkin Spice Latte, and a Shaken Espresso. Personally, the Shaken Espresso was VERY GOOD. It was served in a tall glass and the cinnamon, once stirred throughout the entire glass, elevated the taste to deliciousness. Now, onto the entrees: Blueberry Pancakes (two buttermilk pancakes, topped with blueberry compote, whipped ricotta, and powered sugar). I was told, that these were the best pancakes they've ever had. My entree was the Ricotta Toast (house whipped ricotta, topped with roasted tomatoes, local NJ honey, and balsamic glaze). This was my first time having Ricotta Toast and it was better than any other Avocado Toast I've ever had. The ricotta was smooth, creamy, and the glaze gave every bite a pleasantly sweet addition to the already delectable selection. Almost Home General has skyrocketed to the top of my breakfast/brunch options and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT, again. If Westfield is too far, they have other locations (Westwood, Jersey City, and Lincroft). Oh, and btw, they all have Google ratings of 4.5 and above. Nuff said.

They provided suggestions which I love. Ordered an iced log cabin. Loved the drink!! Only downside, even though it was iced, felt like warm. It was delicious regardless. Just felt like more ice was needed. Loved the positive sayings on the cups. Needed it that morning! Ordered an OG breakfast sandwich and that was delicious. Little pricy, but filling. Overall enjoyed it and will be back to try more!

To be fair, the food has been quite decent on the several occasions we've visited, and the waitstaff has consistently provided good service. Unfortunately, our experience with the hostess has been the complete opposite. Today, while stopping in for a couple of burgers, we were greeted by what appeared to be an almost empty restaurant. This was the second time we've encountered rude and unwelcoming behavior from the hostess. After giving the place multiple chances, that experience was enough for us to decide that we will not be returning. It's disappointing because the kitchen and serving staff have done a good job, but first impressions matter, and the hostess's attitude has overshadowed the otherwise positive aspects of the restaurant.

They offer a year-round menu along with seasonal specials; however, it seems there's a small gap during menu transitions, so I'd recommend calling ahead to see what's available before your visit. I missed the chance to try their seasonal menu, but I opted for a Mocha Latte, a Vanilla Bean Latte, and a Honey Drop Latte. The Mocha was definitely the favorite! They also have a nice variety of pastries, as well as some grab-and-go fruits and snacks. One small tip: make sure to scan the wall for the food menu. It isn't posted on the main board or at the counter, so we actually missed it at first since it was toward the back wall. The pastries are at the front so we ended up getting a spinach and feta pastry. Overall, it's a solid spot to check out if you're in the area!
