    Fresh vegetables for salads and sandwiches.
    Letty C.

    We usually order Sunday breakfast here and we pick it up, however today we stopped in for lunch and this place was packed. When we first arrived there were no tables available so we sat at the very busy counter which would have been cool, but you can't eat at the counter in peace. The line cooks and waitresses have several phone orders and deliveries lined up on the counter for the delivery man to pick up. The counter was crowded and bags moved by us furiously. When we sat at the counter we had to almost yell to one another over the cooks and waitresses yelling phone orders back and forth to one another and pushing bags by us like some sort of assembly line. As soon as a table was available at the chance to get away from the bustle and bustle of delivery order, I ordered a tuna wrap, avocado salad, and fries. We also had a beet juice freshly made from the juice bar. There is a wide variety of freshly made juices available, carrot, beets, ginger.....The waitress was kind, but extremely busy. She took our order, bought us our food, then dropped off the check. She was nice but never stopped to say "do you need anything else. " I enjoyed my food, the tuna was thick with fresh crunchy red peppers and celery, however I will never visit again during lunch hour it was just too much going on. I will stick with picking up our food.

    So check it...just because a place is in the hood, doesn't mean it's bad. It can actually be pretty damned good....case in point, North Star Cafe. First off, the place is suuuuuper busy. That, is OBVIOUSLY a good thing. I sat at the counter and ordered up a chicken/ broccoli quesadilla. 5 minutes later, it arrived and another 5 minutes later, it was in my stomach. Slammmin'! They also have a salad bar (you know, like delis in the City?) and smoothie station, which everyone seemed to be crowded around ordering up. Like I said, don't judge a book by it's cover. This place deserves respect. Word up.

    I forgot to take a picture, it was too bomb. Cheap & Amazinggggg omg. I would recommend to anyone

    "Cheese fries" @northstarcafe 0/5 don't recommend.

    I asked for cheese fries and this is what I received!!!!! I'm terribly upset I spent almost $20 on my food for me to receive this bullshit respectfully they just gotta do better.

    Good for breakfast. Try and avoid the morning rush as orders do get mixed up. Prices are good and the food is tasty.

    The salad bar is great you get to choose from a variety of add-ins and dressings and it's only 7 bucks.

The food was amazing! Everything tasted fresh and delicious. The focaccia was so fresh and the lavender honey butter was out of this world! The cover farm ricotta was also so lovely with that lemon zest flavor shining thru. I ordered the garden Burger. The salad it came with was so crisp and fresh. The patty was homemade and beyond delicious. My daughter devoured her butter pasta. They have plenty of veggie friendly options. Overall excellent and highly recommended!!

The place had many tables filled so I would highly suggest going there with a reservation beforehand. Despite there being a good amount of people service was quick and all servers were very kind and attentive. Our waiter Steven made sure we were taken care of and everyone else were very kind. Our drinks arrived promptly, I will say there was some inconsistency in how our drinks were mixed since one of the vanilla drinks was sweeter than the other but other than that all drinks were delicious. The food on both times that I've been here was delicious with everyone at the table enjoying their meal. I've yet to have a bad experience here. I would say if you are debating trying the restaurant, take the opportunity to as you won't be disappointed.

    Came here for brunch with a friend. The space was lovely and bustling, with a welcoming ambiance…read more When I first arrived, the quoted wait time was 30 minutes, but it turned out to be closer to 45 minutes. While waiting, I sipped on a Cinnamon Maple Latte, which was bold and strong, as well as heavy on the cinnamon, but could have used more maple and sweetness. My friend and I shared the Bread and Cornbread Basket, served warm with raspberry preserve jam and butter. The Bread was perfectly baked, fluffy, and well seasoned. Cornbread was glazed, giving it a slightly sweet taste, as well as crumbly in a good way. The butter made the breads richer, while the raspberry jam added a nice layer of flavor. For my meal, I ordered the Steak and Eggs, adding Truffle Fries, which were an additional $5. This also came with a small side salad topped with radishes. The Steak was tender, wonderfully juicy, and flavorful. Eggs were cooked over hard, just how I like them and made expertly. Truffle fries had a generous sprinkling of Parmesan and were delightfully crispy, with strong truffle yumminess. Salad gave a fresh element to the dish. Service was lovely. Our waitress was friendly and everything came out in a timely manner. Prices were decent. I would consider returning for dinner to try the Short Rib or Brisket Mac & Cheese.
