Updated review I tried the tacos and they were delicious. I think it would've been better with some of a homemade salsa and the burger and fries. They had were also delicious.

The Grove at Governor Pointe is a dining facility serving the adjacent offices at this cul de sac in the University City neighborhood. There was a parking deck right next to the building, however there was also a row of surface spaces along the north side of the structure which I took advantage of during my late lunch hour visit. The seating capacity was roughly the same between the outdoor tables on the patio and the inside tables across from the service counter. Breakfast, lunch, and happy hour were offered between 7:30 am and 4:30 pm. About half a dozen choices were available for breakfast with double that number for lunch. A separate happy hour menu listed five different small bites. Coffee, tea, and smoothies were the drink categories. I saw a posting for a Chicken Tikka Masala entree but learned that it was the lunch special from another day of the week and not a regularly served item. My selection was the Fish Tacos with a cup of soup on the side. I asked for the white fish to be grilled instead of battered. Two tacos were served on corn tortillas topped with shaved cabbage, pico de gallo, salsa roja, and serrano crema. They were slightly larger than street size and were decent in quality. The star was the soup of the day which happened to be mushroom. It was a dark grey colored broth with micro-cilantro as a garnishment. The soup was very creamy and hearty. I could have filled up with another round, it was that good. The food came out quickly from the kitchen, and the workers were very friendly. I don't know how busy The Grove gets during peak lunch time, but it's a nice spot to hang out to do laptop work or for a break from the daily grind.

White chocolate pumpkin spice latte

Cute place with clean and fresh atmosphere. Tables and chairs in an open space. Friendly staff and quick service. I had their seasonal white chocolate and pumpkin spice latte. It was delicious!

I got the avocado toast over toasted and poached eggs which weren't poached. They were semi hard boiled toast is wheat toast with looks like sour cream and sliced avocado not mashed avocado with radishes seems to be fairly good. The one thing that was very disappointing. Was they take no cash their card only. I don't know if I'll be going back. I called in my order and Kim was very nice and when I got there, they were very nice behind the counter.

bacon croissant breakfast sandwich
Rich B.

The bacon croissant breakfast sandwich is incredible perfectly toasted, and packed with flavor. The staff is warm and friendly, and the seasonal White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Latte is a must-try. A great spot for breakfast or coffee break.

Side of grilled chicken, Caesar salad, fries

Lovely spot next to work. I find myself coming often for a quick smoothie, delicious fish tacos and salads, and the amazing tortilla soup that makes Mondays something to look forward to. The staff always know me too:). The place feels welcoming, and very much like home, and the food is top notch quality and beautiful every time.

Breakfast burrito with steak. Packed and delicious!

They provided coffee and tea service for our 145 guests, including everything we needed--cups, lids, creamer, stir sticks, a variety of sweetener options, and an excellent selection of teas. Their attention to detail made the entire process seamless. The staff was incredibly kind, professional, and easy to work with from start to finish. They thoughtfully packed everything in a large bin for easy transport and even helped us carry the supplies to our car. Now that's outstanding customer service! The quality of the beverages was exceptional. The coffee was absolutely delicious, and both the coffee and hot water stayed hot for nearly five hours--perfect for our evening event. Our guests loved having a warm beverage to enjoy, and it added a cozy, welcoming touch that made the evening even more memorable. This is not the first time we've worked with Cargo Cafe, and it certainly won't be the last. Whether you're stopping in for your morning coffee or catering a large event, I highly recommend Cargo Cafe. Their products, service, and professionalism are second to none. Cargo Cafe is simply the best!

The two young ladies working were very cool. They offered good conversation and were funny. The coffee was smooth and rich. They use a quality barista blend of oat milk that works very well. This location offers some very nice shaded outside seating. They offer food as well, including breakfast sandwiches, burritos, empanadas, and salads and such. Cool coffee spot at the Conerstone Business Center.

The Earth juice has the perfect amount of sweetness from apples, carrots, and oranges while maintaining an earthiness from the beets and kale--this harmony creates a most refreshingly healthy and delicious juice. Service is quick and friendly as well! Looking forward to grabbing my next Earth juice in the future!

R3FRESH Juice Bar + Superfood absolutely nailed it--and then some. We stopped in for a basic bowl (sometimes simple is best), and wow... delicious doesn't even begin to cover it. Perfectly blended, beautifully topped, and every bite was pure refreshment. You can taste the quality in every spoonful. But what really made our visit special was Ashlyn. She greeted us with the warmest smile, took genuine interest in what we were craving, and crafted our bowls with such care and attention--you could literally feel the love she put into it. She made my son feel like the most important customer in the place, and that kind of service is rare these days. Oh, and we can't forget to mention their gorgeous "Instagrammable" wall! We had so much fun snapping photos with our colorful bowls against the vibrant backdrop. It's clear they've thought of everything--amazing food, incredible service, AND a space that just makes you happy to be there. Whether you're a fellow acai addict, looking for your next profile pic backdrop, or just need a healthy, feel-good treat, this is your spot. Already planning our next visit!

I've tried this Shake Smart twice. Once because of an event and another time because I received a…read moregift card. I had the greens to go smoothie which I found a little chalky and you could still taste the protein powder a bit too much for my taste. I had the almond butter toast to use up a gift card, which was fine but I'm not sure I would personally pay $5.87 for it. I found this place a little bit inconvenient to go to since the hours on Google and Yelp are incorrect and they didn't have any hours posted on their door, but they open at 10am on Tuesdays and not 7am. I also found it odd that they bill themselves as "on the go" food, but you cannot order ahead for pick up. If you order ahead you still have to go to the register to pay, which makes it a less convenient option than other campus options that do allow pick-up. There is no seating inside, but there are close tables and chairs that are outside. Note: This is on the UCSD campus, so it's not very convenient to go to unless you are already on the campus as you have to pay for parking.

So grateful this was open on July 3! Literally everything was closed. I was also pleased at how…read moretasty the smoothies were. I would pass on the toasts which felt like they came out of the can. The student running the counter was friendly and happy to strike up conversation. I can imagine this being pricey for college students. I found it refreshing given how expensive things are getting. I would come back again especially to enjoy the sea breeze on the rocking chairs!
