Service was remarkably quick, keeping the line moving seamlessly.

For the food items, I ordered two iced vanilla lattes which were very weak. Lots of milk and felt like not much expresses power. Also was interested in the fired pizza kits order for some lunch. While ordering with the staff member at the front counter there seemed to be some difficulty getting a proper pizza order in. I asked do you have a plain cheese pizza and she said so a margarita pizza. I asked if it had other things on it due to allergies like basil and olive oil. She said yes. So I again asked can it just be made plain with sauce and cheese only. She again repeated, so a margarita pizza. I said you can charge me for a margarita if that's easier but I just want cheese and sauce. It seemed like she wasn't grasping my simple request and told me to tell the pizza maker outside. I did and he was great. Totally understood the diet restriction and said he would make it. Took about 10 minutes and it was pretty good. He was polite and friendly too. Back inside as we waited for our pizza we were checking out the coffee shop and couldn't help to notice the same woman who took my pizza order was handling the register and also helping make some matcha. The problem is while touching all kinds of things at the front counter she then was shaking up matcha in a bottle but covering the opening with her bare thumb, then wiping it on her pants and going back to the next one. Not very sanitary for making beverages. Another display of poor customer service was when I asked if parking free or paid outside and where is the kiosk to pay. The same worker kind of shrugged at me and said I think it's paid, but looked like she couldn't care less. I said even for customers eating here it's paid? She said yeah. Well after reading thru some other Yelp reviews they mentioned the four 20 minute parking spots out front. Sheesh. Like could you be less helpful with a new customer. Poor customer service, didn't know the shop procedures too well or just didn't really care. 2 stars for the pizza and pizza guy being cool. Plenty of other coffee places around tho.

It was a really hot day, so we were happy to get an indoor table. The atmosphere was really cute and colorful, with lots of flowers and pink. Definitely a little girly for me, but my girlfriend loved it! There were a couple of small things that were a little off. We didn't really like that the drinking glasses were plastic. Also, we ordered a few lattes, including the pumpkin pecan latte, and one of the drinks that was supposed to be hot came out cold. We let them know, though, and they replaced it without any problem. The food was definitely the best part. They have a really good variety on the menu, and there were so many things that looked good it was hard to decide. I got the lobster Benedict, and my girlfriend got the steak and eggs. Both were really good! The ingredients tasted fresh and high quality, and everything was cooked and seasoned really well. No complaints at all about the food, it was fantastic. One other thing worth mentioning is the restroom! it was very clean, which is something we really appreciate when dining out. Overall, a great spot for breakfast/brunch with a beautiful atmosphere and, most importantly, excellent food. We'd definitely come back!

I got the fried chicken with biscuits and gravy, hot honey, eggs over easy, with a side of fruit. The chicken was lightly battered and fried to perfection. The hot honey was delightful. The gravy and biscuits really completed the meal. The eggs were ooey gooey :). The portion size was very generous, I could not finish it in one sitting. Guess I'll have breakfast for dinner tonight too. I also tried the pistachio latte. At first I wasn't getting much pistachio in the drink, but i stirred the foam in, let it sit til the end of the meal, and finally it is there. Drink was ok. I also tried some of the chilaquiles and spicy shakshuka. Both were also really good! The single blueberry pancake was very fluffy and on the sweet side, but my friends really enjoyed it. Personally, I like tart so I usually go for something more lemony. If you like sweet pancakes, this one is for you. The waitstaff were very attentive and were very knowledgeable about the dishes. I would definitely come back to try other dishes. This was such a good brunch!

We came for Sunday brunch and joined the waitlist beforehand. The hostess was a bit rude when we came to check-in (but could have just been very stressed due to the late crowd) and told us it would still be another 20 minutes despite us being second on the waitlist. We got seated after about 10 minutes though. They were clearly understaffed and our server was understandably overwhelmed. Service was significantly slower than I would have preferred but he was apologetic and explained the situation. We were seated on the patio and it does get warm with direct sunlight but they were quick when we asked for the blinds to be pulled down. I got the maple fried chicken breakfast sandwich with hash browns. I really enjoyed the hashbrowns, they were perfect. The chicken was very crispy and the brioche bun was excellent. Unfortunately the whole sandwich was a bit bland for my palate but after adding some maple syrup it was pretty much perfect. My best friend's go-to here is the risotto Benedict and she loves it. Overall food was good but wait times left a little to be desired. The place itself is very cute though. Prices are a bit on the higher end but reflect the location. I would go again but maybe only on a weekday when they're less busy.

I ordered a few drinks for my friends and me to try since it was our first time here, and we were heading to the beach after. They hand-whisk their matcha for each drink, which I really appreciate because most matcha spots in San Diego pre-make theirs. I got the regular matcha latte. I assumed it would already be sweetened, but it wasn't, which wasn't a big deal for me since I prefer little to no sweetness. It was still really good: perfect consistency, and you can definitely taste the matcha. My cousin got the matcha cream top (similar to a matcha einspänner), and I loved their vanilla bean syrup(?) that was included in the drink. It had the perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess. My friends also tried the orange latte, and they were pleasantly surprised by the cream on top. The orange flavor was noticeable but still subtle, and the coffee itself was strong. The syrups balanced everything out nicely. Definitely would come back again!
