Best Soufflé Pancakes ever!…read more Now that I've actually been to Japan I can honestly say I crave these pancakes more than the ones I had overseas! These pancakes are more fluffier and eggier (I think that's a legit word, LOL), and super rich! If you don't like eggs, don't visit because there is a lot of eggy flavor. I've tried the two dominant flavors, Matcha and Strawberry, and I can't tell which one I like better. The light cream topping is better than any butter or maple syrup I've ever had. There is usually one more flavor that they change from time to time as well which I've heard is great. Going on the weekday avoids the wait. The abnormal hours of operation don't make it easy to visit but if you do you'll definitely enjoy. Book the table on Yelp!

J S Foodies is the latter, a small and cheerful outpost of Tokyo imagination where breakfast behaves like theater. I arrived with my boys and my father in law, a man celebrating another year of survival in a universe that has not yet figured out how to improve pancakes. The space is small, and the famous Kiseki pancakes take their time, about twenty to thirty minutes, as if they are being persuaded into existence rather than cooked. These Kiseki pancakes are not pancakes in the American sense. They are soufflé style creations, tall and trembling, as if gravity is only a suggestion. They arrive airy and delicate, with a gentle jiggle that suggests optimism. We ordered accordingly. I had the lemon ricotta, which tasted like sunlight had been filtered through dairy. My oldest chose matcha, green, purple and quietly sophisticated and complex. My youngest went with the original maple, a classic executed so well it made the classics feel new again. All were excellent, the sort of food that makes conversation pause because mouths are busy being grateful. My father in law ordered what I personally considered a cautious breakfast. Regular pancakes with eggs and bacon. A meal that could have been assembled in any roadside diner between here and forever. Yet even this was handled with care. The eggs were perfect, the bacon honest, the pancakes dignified. No irony, no shortcuts. Yes, the prices are a little steep. But this is not a place for routine nourishment. This is a place for occasions, for birthdays, for reminding yourself that breakfast can aspire to something like art. Five stars, because sometimes the world surprises you by getting something exactly right.

When our waiter did come 10 minutes or so after being seated, he was super polite and took our whole order. The drinks and food were delicious! It took him a little bit to come back again but brought the check quick. Overall fun little brunch spot, just super cold and dark inside. Service takes a little longer but delicious food.

This place is a classic.

The pancakes and bacon were delicious, we could not even finish a short stack! If you're going to the location in downtown Princeton, it is a small smaller space so just be prepared that I can get a little noisy. The food and service was fantastic. Always a place you can count on.

This place is a downtown…read morePrinceton institution with a nice vintage vibe...tables are carved with initials, various memorabilia on the walls, cramped and low roof. Our server was super friendly and attentive. Sadly, the food vibe was average at best. My pancakes were just ok...not what I was expecting for a namesake restaurant. My turkey sausage was tough and dry...inedible. Coffee was so-so. Scrambled eggs were about the only thing they got right. Not sure why there is a line out the door...you can do better elsewhere. Go up the street to Jammin Crepes that has higher quality food and coffee.

I am usually a classic Eggs-Benedict person, but the Corned Beef Benny on the menu intrigued me…read more Corned beef hash, caramelized onion and toasted rye sounded like an interesting twist on the classic. Am I glad I tried this combo! It was so very flavorful, and the poached eggs and hollandaise were cooked perfectly. The toasted rye was a huge, thick slice... totally unexpected but an expert offering. I savored every bite of this twist on the classic! To top it off, my takeout was neat and extremely well-packaged, and service was friendly and impeccable, as always. Bravo, Café 72!!!

The variety of brunch and lunch options makes this a great place for groups. This time I went with…read morecoworkers and tried the special blackened chicken salad for $20 (not as painful when I'm not paying). Not to be too nitpicky but the chicken was more just Cajun flavor and not really blackened. Maybe I don't really know the difference but didn't care for that Cajun seasoning. Otherwise great healthy salad. The iced green tea matcha was tasty, not sweet but kind of small with lots of ice. I heard one of my coworkers not like the burger, just lacked flavor. My first trip here was better with the mushroom omelette. Fast and accommodating service. Best to make reservations because they get busy.

The staff is always friendly and accommodating. They are always hustling, then restaurant is always full - no question why! The atmosphere is really cute, and it is always decorated inside depending on the season/holiday. They also do a ton of giving back to the community. They run a food pantry, provide hot meals to those in need, and I'm certain there is more I'm missing at this time. I really love supporting a business that makes our community even greater :) we love hopewell!!

Tables adorned with a cute little ceramic sugar dish, lovely tableware and fresh flowers. This place was designed with love and intention and it shows. From the lighting fixtures to the decor Flourish is both stylish and comfortable. The food is just as well thought out. Inspired by Eastern European flavors Flourish takes basic breakfast to an elevated experience. A bit pricy for daily breakfast but the flavors were a treat to experience. No pork products but the turkey sausage was just as satisfying and 4 long links in a side serving. I chose the garden skillet and swapped the over easy eggs for scrambled. He went for the Shakshuka. Both were not just served but presented beautifully on wooden boards. We had to try the Syrniki and were delighted. You aren't going to find over the top portions here, but the meals are satisfying and prepared with fresh quality ingredients. The berries on the Syrniki were huge, juicy and tasty. Flourish is not your daily breakfast spot but definitely one we recommend and will revisit on occasion.

I love me a good Jersey bagel!…read more We made an unexpected visit to Deli on a Bagel Cafe around 11 AM and it was BUSY. There were a couple tables open, and several customers walking in for to-go orders back to back. All the bagel sandwiches coming out from the kitchen looked amazing. I ordered an Asiago bagel with vegetable cream cheese. I asked for it toasted and it was lightly toasted and loaded with cream cheese. I haven't eaten a bagel like this in a while. The cashier was friendly and repeated our order back to us. It took about 15 mins for 3 bagel sandwiches and 1 toasted bagel to be ready. They have a wide selection of bottled drinks at the front and it appears you can get cold cuts from the deli area as well.

It is a creamy stuffed cabbage soup and reminiscent of Polish stuffed cabbage. We arrived here just before two after a Sunday snow sledding expedition. No one rushed us out the door even with a closing time of 3pm. We ordered the Mexican and Mediterranean omelets from the specials menu. Our super friendly and welcoming server had recommended the Mediterranean, but I craved jalapeños - ultimately would have picked the Mediterranean if I had to do it again. Hot dog is very good according to my daughter - served on an Italian roll and is more like 2 hot dogs - she loved it. Would have liked my eggs and potatoes a little less well done, but overall the place was really magical and would go back again easily! Definitely would put the soup in our weeknight meal rotation.

Walking in felt like going to a carnival--bright, lively, and full of energy. I initially expected a simple diner, but I quickly realized it's much more; there are so many menu options that it was actually a bit overwhelming in the best way. My daughter ordered an iced vanilla latte along with a California omelette, which came with breakfast potatoes. I had a regular coffee and a croissant sandwich with bacon, ham, and cheese. They also have a great kids' menu. My granddaughter had a blueberry pancake with scrambled eggs on the side, and she absolutely loved it. The service was fantastic--our server was very attentive throughout our visit. The ambiance was also perfect for a mid-Friday morning: lively but still comfortable. Overall, a great first visit, and I can see why my daughter enjoys coming here so often.

Fast moving place to say the least. Gets crowded quickly on special event days like Mothers Day…read more We waited for nearly 90 mins. Not my choice to wait. I don't wait for food. Definitely not 90 mins.. My daughter just had to have Brownstone. The worst part of the wait was their system. They do not notify you by text or restaurant pager. They come to the door and yell out a name. If you miss hearing your name or they mispronounced your name, they pass you by. That's crazy considering the amount of names they get and the house doesn't pronounce it correctly The food: All of our order was VERY good. Only complaint. My skirt steak was cooked well, not medium well. But it was not over cooked. Was still tender and delicious. If you can't tell by all the photos. We took a lot of food home. The waitress was really attentive. But it looked like all the staff was attentive. Not over bearing at all. Super busy place. And they only take 1st come, 1st call. But make a waiting list as it gets crowded. The seating was a little tight. And that was throughout the place. Nice menu selections. So we'll be back to try few other items. Clean restrooms which are a plus for me. DEFINITELY would recommend this place.

Veggie sandwich was flavorless - no condiments or spread on the bread - just plain bread stuffed…read morewith zucchini and cheese. Side of fries was also nothing special . We just tasted it and skipped the rest . Open face Mediterranean sandwich was a tad better. Bread was well toasted and veggie filling n balsamic added some flavor n texture . The side chickpea salad was not bad . Seemed to have good walk in traffic but everybody had some delays or some kind of issue with the food . Maybe it was a bad day for the staff . Ambience was bright and nice with additional outdoor seating . Service was slow and not very hygienic. When we shared feedback about the missing veggies in the veggie sandwich , the hostess was understanding and apologized. Offered a complimentary dessert which we refused as I did not find the baked good appetizing ( given the flies that we noticed ) There is street parking and few spots at the back of the building Overall not a place I would return. We left the place a bit hungry .
