Quaint, friendly, southern hospitality at its finest! The food was fast delicious and we will definitely be returning! My daughter got the crepe sampler (why don't more restaurants do samplers?!?) and I had cinnamon toast and biscuits and gravy.
Eight months later, the restaurant continues to have service problems. A minute after I was seated, a senior staff asked if I had been waited on. When she returned to where the waitstaff were mingling, no one did come to my table at that time. Of course, I did not expect anyone to come by so soon. Eventually, a waitress did come to take my order. Sometime later, an employee placed a large tray with various plates by my table. As he was to serve me those plates, another waitress stopped him and said they were for her table. There were two plates which she could not recognize. I said yes when she asked me if I had ordered those items. Rather than serving me my items, the employee returned the plates to the kitchen. Several minutes later, my waitress came by with those plates. Since it was the Saturday before Christmas, I decided to order the chocolate pancakes listed on their featured chalkboard. When my waitress asked if I wanted two or three, I opted for two. I also ordered sausage. Unfortunately, due to the taste and light color, the patties may have been chicken. After one bite, I decided just to finish the pancakes. Non-beef sausage must be the norm nowadays because, in the past, I would have been warned.
It has been about 2 years since Northlake Cafe opened near my neighborhood. We still enjoy going there for breakfast & lunch. I have tried many items on their menu, but this was the first time I noticed they had eggs Benedict with crabmeat. I got it and really liked it. I thought the Hollandaise was a little heavy, but still tasty. It is pretty large. It comes with 2; English muffin, which you can switch out, crabmeat, avocado and a perfect poached egg. I took one home and it was perfect the next morning for breakfast. And, the hollandaise sauce was also perfect, being in the refrigerator over night made it a little lighter. I like the Cafe' feel of the restaurant. It gives it the right ambiance. Service is usually very good. We have only had to wait a couple of times.
Our server was great. My granddaughters' lunches were very good. Kids chicken tender meal and banana Nutella pancakes. My meal, however, left so much to be desired. The side salad was filled with a large clump of rotten, slimy lettuce hidden under the top tin layer of lettuce. Our server offered to replace it but I didn't trust the kitchen at that point and that rotten clump of lettuce actually left me nauseous. My BLT consisted of a LOT of lettuce, a decent amount of bacon and one paper thin sliver of Roma tomato. The slice of tomato on my rotten salad was more substantial than the sliver on my BLT.
We have loved this restaurant for breakfast for several years. They have a large variety of offerings on their menu but do a great job with everything we have tried. Their food is consistently good and arrives to the table quickly. Our favorites are the TexMex Skillet which is loaded with goodness, the Migas and the oatmeal. I know, oatmeal? Yes! It is the best we've had and loaded with fruit. It's a local favorite with a nice home town feel and a waitstaff that is friendly, efficient and so accommodating. Love Love (If you stop by, say Hi to Judy)
Although a small breakfast/lunch cafe, they seem to be busy the entire time they're open. Coffee is hot and flavorful, food is delicious cafe-fair, and service was awesome. We'll be back to this corner cafe for sure!
Good morning Yelpmates. Made the drive north of Fort Worth to Justin and Northlake house hunting. Hunger struck hard. Came here to you guys for the heads up on brunch. You lead me here, let's hope you're not pulling my leg. So far service is awesome, and the place is spacious, new, well-lit, nice cafe feel. Coffee came out in a sippy cup. Tiny. The coffee is weak. I'm adding an expresso shot, but the coffee is so far from coffee, it's closer to brown water. The shot placed it at a normal level. This is a miss. 1st world or not, coffees are universal. I ordered Country fried steak. Was fork tender. Eggs are a perfect over med. Potatoes were just barely cooked. No browning. Looked boiled then skillet tossed, but not browned. Service checked on the table maybe 6 times. Service made this 4 a 5 star. I do not doubt if I asked for the spuds to be browned they would have corrected, so I didn't bother. I felt confident they care, that's worth 5 stars. This was a winner. Would return were it on my trail. This is out of town though. Take care of yourselves.
This was our First Visit!! Great atmosphere bright and cheery.. the menu offered a lot of variety. The food well It was Not too bad .. but not the best .. I didn't like that the toast is served dry with cold butter on the side by request :( no fun putting cold butter on dry toast. Service was okay .. drinks were not filled and syrup/cream etc was not brought until it was almost too late - pancakes were great except again I love hot whipped butter melting on my pancakes and they serve cold little butter packets .. :( Omelet was decent .. not oversized by any means. Nothing fancy. Hashed browns .. hmm same, you could that tell they were not fresh grated potatoes - but they were fine, I would have preferred less grease.. chicken friend steak tasted good.. Nice little spot for breakfast though and I'll probably give them another shot and order some other items and see how it goes!!

We hope you give us a chance to make it up and correct what we can.…
Best kept secret. It's not every day that you find a restaurant who's owners who care about supporting local farmers, providing the best and highest quality ingredients, and grow their own herbs etc. With a diverse menu you offering, won't be disappointed. They neglect to tell you that many many things are locally sourced, farm fresh and many are even organic. The back of the menu does hint at the special blue water that is complementary to every table and the fact that it is alkaline. If you're not familiar with the value of alkaline water for our bodies look it up! This is a great offering and I am so proud that they offer this here without hesitation or added cost. I wish the staff were more forthcoming about the quality ingredients in the food and the local sourcing. I think that the certainly should be celebrated. We've eaten here a couple of times now and have not had a bad meal. The staff are very attentive. Things move fairly quickly because they use handheld ordering devices and that also helps to expedite exiting because you can pay right at the table with the waiters device. We have enjoyed salads, eggs Benedict, steak and eggs, French toast, crêpes... Oh and mimosas!!!! they offer all of their French toast and a gluten-free offering, aside from the cinnamon roll one, and so far everything we've tried has been amazing. my very favorite though are the hashbrowns. I'm not even a big hashbrowns person but these are... Hands-down... The very best I have ever had. everyone at our table agreed. read more

I love Northlake Cafe! We usually go on Sunday's after church and I love their Gluten Free pancakes and waffles! Today I went for lunch and decided to try a sandwich on GF toast. It was good, but I'll be going back for pancakes and mimosa again soon! They have lots of Gluten Free options! read more

My first time visiting Northlake Cafe and I will definitely be returning. So many items on the menu (like 4 full pages of extensive breakfast and brunch menu) that sound delicious. We received prompt service and everyone was very helpful and sweet. I ordered the avocado toast with fruit while my husband got the benedict with hash browns. Both were really good with generous portions. Highly recommend! read more

When we walked in there was no waiting, it was like 10:15 it was crowded, the atmosphere was cute our waiter was friendly, he told us the favorite's on the menu but we ordered the omelettes which you get 1 side and a bread item. The pancakes were thick which I was a little spectacle but actually the butter melted and it was delicious and fluffy. The veggie omelette had a lot of fresh ingredients but didn't really have taste and the potatoes too, you will have to season it which I had too and I understand their are people who can't have a lot of seasonings but I feel sometimes salt and pepper doesn't always make the season to your liking. The downfall was when we were seated they put us in front of the door area and today was still chilly outside I feel they should have put us somewhere else because their was a booth away from the door. I don't realize it until I sat down, I feel when it's cold outside they should not seat people by the door unless they say "I don't mind". That's why they get a 4 from us. Today's date is Saturday, 2/22/2025. read more

DEFINITELY stop in for breakfast, brunch or lunch! We were so excited to see they were finally open and the food did not disappoint! We tried the breakfast tostadas, oatmeal, pancakes and crepes. PERFECTLY cooked eggs, crispy hasbrowns, fresh fruits, alkaline water and the FRESH SQUUEZED OJ...oh, my!! Now that you know the food is eggcellent!! The FOH service team was top notch too. Very attentive and communicative. Our server, Tristan, was so sweet and accommodating. Today was their 3rd day open so we expected to experience some "first day jitters" but they handled everything with style and grace. We live in Harvest and are looking forward to our next visit. Those breakfast tostadas though!! So YUM. read more

Amazing place, but found plastic in my wife's food! We ate there today, and my salmon benedict was delicious! Would have given 5 stars for food and service but my wife bit into a half inch of hard plastic in her crab cake benedict. It had a sharp edge so she got lucky she felt it before any accidents. We alerted the manager about it in case any other customers order from the same batch. She mentioned that they make the crab cakes there, so we hope they do a better quality check in the future. For what it's worth, my wife loved the crab cake benedict up until that last few bites. Since we already paid, no items were taken off the check. No refunds were offered either, but we weren't necessarily requesting one. We just hope for a better experience next time. read more
