    We read the reviews. We made the decision to give the place a try. We are HAPPY we did! The food was tasty and freshly prepared. The drinks were good. Service was with a big smile and great attitude. It's a nice find even though it is located inside a salon/spa environment. It just works for the space they are in. Next time in the area, make sure you give them a try. Just be prepared for counter seating because there are no tables. Someone did come in for a takeout order while we were there.

    The food and the service was really great! We got lost looking for the breakfast location, but it's inside a salon which is obviously different but really smart! The food was really tasty and definitely would come back again. My husband is a really picky eater and really loved his breakfast burrito.

    Suchhh a good little family owned hole in the wall spot!! A little hard to find since it's in the back of a spa, but omg, I was blown away. Everything was so good. They make their spices and a bunch of other stuff in house, so the flavors are so unique and really stand out. Owners are so sweet and easy to talk to! Food came out pretty fast as well. They do drip coffee but if they ever decided to have an espresso machine I would be so happy!! Either way, I'll definitely be back!

    We had such a wonderful experience here! It was a little tricky to find at first but well worth the search! The restaurant is located within the salon building. The couple that owns it is so kind and the food is amazing to say the least. Even one the things that I didn't expect to like, I ended up loving (the tomato jam is to die for)! We will definitely be coming back, I can't wait to try more things from their menu.

    Turkey Turkey Bacon Croissant - served cold w extra greens

    This is a unique spot as it is in the back of the "Alexander's salon and spa" but it it delicious and it was very reasonable. Maria and mark (I believe that was their names) were so sweet. Would eat here again.

    Turkey Pesto Panini
    Micaela T.

    This place is such an amazing hidden gem! They have great customer service and food! I ordered the Turkey Bacon Croissant Sandwich with many modifications. I changed it to a panini style, hot sandwich, with sourdough bread and removed the bacon. The woman who took my order was so kind and generously accommodated all of my requests. The panini was so yummy and warm with perfectly melty cheese. It also had a good amount of turkey and spinach which I loved. The cafe is in a little corner at the of the hall in Alexander's Salon and Spa. It's the perfect place to go if you ever have a long day at the salon and want a delicious quick bite or drink nearby! I so recommend!

    Loaded Farmhouse Mac & Cheese and Pesto Chicken Panini - served hot

    Second time leaving a review because it's that good. We haven't been here in a few months and we loved the new set up! Needless to say, quality and flavor is top notch!

    Honestly at first it's kind of questionable because the place is inside a salon but once you try the sandwiches they are amazing ! I definitely loved how most things are made from scratch. I also had their spicy tea drink & it was good as well. They did only have a bar like place to sit & eat but overall the price was good for the quality of food. they even serve you a side of roasted potatoes & with your sandwich order & the seasoning was great! I definitely will come back. The lady that attended me was awesome & she explained how they cook & prep their food so fresh.

    OHP burrito, so flavorful!
    Varinia R.

    Wow, love this little cafe that's tucked inside of a hair salon! I've had this place bookmarked for so long and when my oldest daughter told me she stopped by and loved it, I knew I had to go. I had the OHP burrito with bacon and it was packed with flavor and love the cilantro lime sauce that comes on the side. I want like 2 of those since the burrito is pretty big! When you walk in, you just let the receptionist know you're going to the cafe and you walk towards the back and it's on the right hand side. I believe if you're already there for a salon appointment and you order from the cafe, you get a discount because the lady taking my order asked me if I was there for an appointment. There's so many other items I want to come back and try. Everything is made fresh to order, so it can take a little while to get your order. But it's so worth it because it comes out hot and delicious. Our Happy Place Cafe truly lives up to its name.

    Strawberry Lemonade
    Maggie M.

    Great place to sit with your significant other and enjoy a chicken pesto panini. Marea was great and provided great service. Mark made the paninis with love and we could taste it. The Mac n Cheese was good as well with a little bit of their home made chili powder on top. Come and support this business. You won't regret it. We will be back again. The strawberry lemonade was tarty and delicious.

    Service, food, everything was amazing. Literally a HIDDEN GEM in the back of Alexander's Spa. The owners/chefs are truly hospitable people that enjoy what they do. Ask them what they recommend and you are gonna have the best experience. Never thought a salon/spa place could have a great brunch spot. And btw the salon was full which I assume must be a great place too.

    Marci M.

    I don't think I've ever used the words "HIDDEN GEM" in my life but if I've ever been to a "hidden gem", this is it! I was meeting a friend for lunch and I left the location up to her. She chose a cute little café, with really good reviews that also happened to be located inside of a hair salon... I am not going to lie, I thought that was kind of odd... not odd in the sense that there was a café inside of a hair salon (because well that would be amazing if I was a customer there and could get this delicious food anytime I was getting my hair done) but I thought it was odd that we were going to this cafe from the outside in, if that makes sense? (which by the way we found out later was NOT odd. The lady sitting next to us found the café the same way we did (yelp of course) and just comes in (as a non-customer to the salon) for lunch. She actually comes so often, they consider her a regular. I also spoke with another lady who, although she DOES get her hair done at the salon, she had just come in that day to pick up lunch! But don't get me wrong, the people in the salon are ordering as well. I'm not kidding when I say for the hour or so we were sitting there l, the owner never stopped. Orders were coming in continuously and she so graciously would deliver them to the clients chair!!! That's AMAZING, especially because sometimes these hair services can take hours (IYKYK) Can't wait to go back and try something new. (I tend to be somewhat of a conservative eater as far as spice and texture and the mingling of flavors) so I went pretty standard with the turkey, bacon, provolone on a croissant (which was absolutely delicious). My friend got the spiced beet bowl and there was not a single crumb left in that bowl! This place was a 10/10 for great food & drinks, GREAT customer service and a super cool vibe!

    Chicken Cranberry Salad-DELISH!
    Kristin G.

    Impeccable service, delicious food and clean cafe. Couldn't ask for anything better on a solo lunch out. I enjoyed the chicken cranberry salad which was delicious and hit the spot. Everything on the menu looked so good. I'll definitely be back again!

It included peach, pineapple, strawberry, cranberry, orange, pomegranate, and I think mango (can't remember the last one, sorry!). I love that the glasses were actually filled. I watched them make them, and it's a majority of champagne with just a splash of juice. ​Chilaquiles: This has become my absolute favorite breakfast dish lately, so I try it everywhere. It was very yummy here! It comes with eggs, and I added steak for some extra protein. The presentation was beautiful, too. Highly recommend! ​Steak & Eggs: My friend ordered a dish that had a different name on the menu, but it was essentially steak and eggs. She said it was absolutely delicious. ​ ​The bathroom was clean, and I noticed they have a changing table available as well, which is always a great plus. ​Overall, I had a really good time eating, drinking, and talking here.

A total chaos and a complete failure on the service of the restaurant especially on my birthday breakfast that was ruined. My friend had to scramble to find an stress-free do-over meal soon to make up for this disaster. We ended up at Tacos Al Fuego and had a wonderful experience...

Wait Staff: I wish I took the name of our waitress because she was awesome, funny and knowledgeable about the menu. All waiters/waitresses were great. Drinks: Unfortunately I didn't get any drinks because we kept seeing the brightly colored drinks and flights being served around us and I was jealous, they all looked awesome. Food: This is where it gets good because the food was A+++mazing. We started off with just the salsa, chips and for a nice surprise, some warm beans. The salsa brought a tear to my eye because it was soooo good. Luckily, my son doesn't eat salsa so I drank it all down. The chips were perfectly fresh and crispy. Guac: So, our waitress brought us some off the menu guac, and, WTF, why are they hiding this recipe from the rest of the world. I literally got into a fist fight with my son because he was trying to take it from me (not really) but I didn't want to share. The presentation was so cute too. Plantains + chips + guac = heavan Fajitas: I ordered fajitas and all boxes were checked, quantity, quality, and taste. I ordered the chicken and it was juicy and thick and perfectly seasoned. Steak tacos: My kid ordered the steak tacos and we brokered a deal to trade some steak for chicken and this was the best deal made since the New Deal (American history). Steak was chunky and juicy and fresh! The only problem with this place is that it is very far from my house as I was in the 'hood for my kids basketball tournament. If I am in the area you better believe that I will be back. Oh yeah, and very affordable for the upscale dining.

It's because of this I got very familiar with Swedish Crepes or Pancakes, as some might call them. I don't know if they were ever my favorite style of pancakes but they were always an option on those rare occasions I wanted something with more fruit than blueberry. Tara always appreciated me making an effort to broaden my perspective on what a good pancake or crepe constituted. That being said, I hardly ever run into great Swedish crepes. Usually the butter or compote is sub-standard, and I usually feel like I should've gotten something different. Silver Dollar Pancake House makes some majestic Swedish crepes. Yes, it's more of a cranberry than a lingonberry, but otherwise the compote and Swedish butter are spot-on. The crepes came out nice and thin, but still super flavorful. Everything came together so great. Even the fact the special comes with six sausages after you switch out the bacon is amazing. I would get this deal over and over again. The service at the counter was frenzied and focused. Every time I needed my coffee refilled, the server was on it. The food came quickly and there were frequent check-ins. It's literally everything you could want in customer service at a counter. Yes, the ambiance is bit crowded and a bit hectic. I don't envy trying to get a seat in the dining room because everything is but cramped up in there. That being said, I don't think anyone waited longer than fifteen minutes and folks seemed genuinely glad to be there. It's the price you pay for eating at a popular breakfast spot with breakfast entrees this delicious. Plus, eating at the counter always seemed open. And from someone who hates eating at counters most of the time, that's saying a lot that I would suggest it as a viable option. Overall, this is the dream place for those like Tara who can't get enough of pancakes and a damn good option for those like me who are content to keep their amateur status intact by only occasionally indulging in the Swedish signature dish.

Unfortunately, the main issue was the customer service. I ordered a Diet Coke when we sat down, and it took about 15 minutes to arrive--even after I asked twice. The bigger issue was with our meal. My wife and I specifically asked for the gravy to be served on the side, but when our food arrived, the gravy had been poured all over it. We explained the mistake to our server, and they took it back to have it remade. Another 15 minutes or so later, we finally received the replacement meal. By that point, the other couple at our table was almost finished eating. Our server mentioned that he had only started working there the week before, so I don't want to put all of the blame on him. He was clearly still learning. However, this is also where I would expect the restaurant to step in when something goes wrong. What really bothered me was that when we received the bill, there was absolutely no acknowledgment of what had happened--no apology, no adjustment, nothing. Mistakes happen, and we weren't looking for a free dinner. But when a simple request is missed, your meal has to be remade, and you're left waiting while everyone else at the table is eating, a little acknowledgment from management would go a long way. Overall, the food and drinks were enjoyable. Unfortunately, the delays, the service issues, and the lack of any recognition of what happened took away from what could have been a much better experience.

Our server today for breakfast was nice. There is a guy who I think is the busser and last time got us drinks to go, he's a team player for sure. The server came to the table, didn't introduce herself, ask how are we doing or if we've been there before. Anything. Straight to "are you ready to order?" It could be that she is new or was never trained properly. We had to ask for napkins, boxes, etc. which a guest should never have to ask you for. You know if someone if done eating and there's food on the table, you can ask if we need boxes. Everyone who eats needs napkins. Little things like that matter. I didn't give the lady a good tip specifically because every-time we asked her something, she either forgot or seemed like it was an inconvenience for her to get it. When she gave us our bill, I wanted a coffee to go and a to-go cup for my soda but she gave the bill and walked away so she didn't give me the opportunity to even ask. Which to me, I work in the restaurant industry and going the extra mile to ask if I wanted drinks to go would've made a huge impact. I will come back for the food and vibe, but giving excellent service is not hard if you really care and love what you do.
