Nearly every cultural cuisine on Earth lays claim to some kind of pancake, made from a liquid…read morebatter on a hot, flat surface. Crêpes are an ultra-thin pancake common in France that can be made sweet or savory, typically rolled or folded with a variety of fillings from jam or Nutella to ham and cheese or fruits. They can be eaten for breakfast, dinner, brunch, dessert, or even a snack. Situated on Riverside Avenue in Lyndhurst, this cozy, simple hidden gem establishment offers an array of healthy options on their diverse menu, to which my partner and I returned after 8 years. Upon entering 3rd Wave Cafe, we were able to get a booth along the wall in an upbeat, casual vibe as the music was playing throughout. We decided on the Tropical Crêpe and Avocado BLT Wrap. I started with a French iced coffee that was really strong and served in a glass mug. The crêpe was fluffy, and the texture was great. I could tell all the fruit in it was fresh because it was sweet. The crepe was decorated nicely with a Nutella drizzle and whipped cream dollops that made it visually pleasing. The food, on top of being good-tasting, had a great presentation. The price was reasonable and the portion a healthy size. The service was friendly and not rushed; our server was Am. We left feeling satisfied and content, and we can recommend returning to explore other menu items.

Timing creates the clearest boundary. Breakfast wraps by 10 or 11am while brunch extends into early…read moreafternoon, and that later window permits the cocktail service that defines the experience. Each meal suits a different individual. Breakfast works for families with young children and time-pressed professionals. Brunch rewards couples, friend groups, and anyone treating the meal itself as the main event rather than a stop before one. Located at the intersection of two streets in Lodi, this hidden gem has brought us a wonderful experience where my partner, our friend, and I decided on brunch today. The reservation was easily made via their website. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the host at Summer and Autumn Cafe and were seated immediately in the back, which has a cozy, low-key, and intimate vibe with an open kitchen. Their menu is retrievable by scanning the QR code or a paper with many excellent options for breakfast, lunch, or brunch on weekends. We decided on the Meat Lover's Omelette, Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese, and Starvin' Marvin. We washed our meal with Iced Latte and regular Iced Coffee. Each order is cooked at the time of ordering, making it so that one's food is fresh out of the kitchen when served. Our food was plated beautifully and tasted great. The entire staff was polite and provided an excellent experience. Our server, Elianna was friendly and accommodating. The owner, Bill is very present and checks every table where we made small talk. You won't be disappointed.

Bacon was crisp well, potatoes were nicely seasoned and crisp, over easy eggs were perfectly cooked and the tres leche French toast was a yummy sweet addition to the plate. I also ordered the coquito latte - so yummy but the first latte had a piece of hair in it. Great food but not entirely family friendly -- it's a little tight to bring a baby in a stroller. Plus, as I was headed to the bathroom where I passed several employees no one bothered to give me a heads up the bathroom was too small to accommodate the stroller plus there was no changing table. Therefore, if you have a baby or toddler in diapers/pull ups, you wouldn't be able to change your child at this restaurant. Parking is free on street parking. Great kitchen, but the attention to detail, hygiene, and basic customer awareness really needs improvement.

I want to add that the vegan waffles and pancakes were the best I have had in the United States.
