I had no idea who was supposed to be our server until someone apologized for 'being inattentive'. So I guess it was the bartender? 2. I was served cold prime rib. After I sent it back someone came to me to ask me to 'just let them fix this one' by reheating. I'm aware that isn't going to go well, but I was so surprised at the audacity I felt obligated. It was fine, but definitely nothing to want ever again. Overall it was an incredibly disappointing experience.

This place was highly recommended by the hotel we stayed at. OMGoodness, I can't even recall the…read morelast time I've had a breakfast this bad. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with sausage on an 'english muffin.' I have no idea if the sausage was bad/rancid or just was the worst tasting ever. It was definitely different & disgusting. So after I spit out a mouthful of it in my napkin, I took the rest of it off. Tried eating just the egg & cheese on the muffin, but even the egg tasted horrible. So I took that off the muffin, got a strawberry jam to put on the muffin, that was just as bad as everything else. So....to beat it all, I maybe ate 1/8 of this thing.....got into our vehicle to leave & ended up throwing up what little bit I had eaten. My husband ordered biscuits & gravy, and although he didn't get sick, he said it was one of the worst breakfasts he had eaten, as well. Thing is, the waitress came o we & asked how everything was after I had only taken 1 bite, and that first bite did taste fine but after that....disaster. I'm quite mad at myself for not saying something about the meal. So $28 later, you just realize you will never go back, nor will you recommend the place!! Our waitress was good, very friendly.

I'm so glad we found it. The food was incredible, the service was friendly and efficient, and the ambiance is quiet yet energized with the buzz of a college town. I went with the classic eggs Benedict and couldn't pass on the potato cakes and a $5 Bloody Mary. I kid you not when I say that everything was perfect - all the way down to the smoky salt rimming the glass of the Bloody Mary. My wife went with a $5 mimosa as well as a bowl with some sort of delicious egg/veggie/potato mixture and ate it before I could snap a photo. Needless to say, we were very pleased and will be sure to come back the next time we are in town!

The freshly made bread and pastries are an absolute delight, making each bite feel like a warm hug from a culinary grandma. I couldn't resist the menemen, and while it may seem basic at first glance, the explosion of flavors made it clear this dish is anything but ordinary. The ambiance is charming and unpretentious, making it a perfect place for a casual brunch or a laid-back coffee date. Friendly staff, great food, and a vibe that makes you want to come back. I know I will!

Galley-like set up as you walk in. Breakfast diner vibes more than 'cafe and bakery'. Kitchen to your left as you walk down short corridor into cafe. Sloth-like chill attitude encouraged; the hashtag is #letshangtogether. Had fun looking at all the little sloth decor throughout. Lots of light and glass. VERY limited seating; seats about 15 (?) inside; mostly 2 tops and a 6 top. When we walked in, we were greeted warmly, permitted to sit where ever we would like, then handed menus. Turkish music playing was just a bit too loud. Hospitality. Friendly and helpful. Owner-chef seemed very happy to be there, singing and engaging with his regulars. Offerings. Basic breakfast and lunch items with Turkish and Mediterranean classics. No flavored lattes but other basic espresso drinks offered. Chai was excellent. Had the Turkish coffee because it was a Turkish joint; was REALLY good; strong. We had the Simit Platter; sesame-like NY bagel, feta chunks, and olives. All very good. See pics. Apparently they offer cooking classes, catering, and meal prep pick-up -- for ever-changing healthier, fresh, easy-prep take-out options. Of Note and Last Impressions. Lot parking. Overall, fun.

Came on a Wednesday and it was packed but the wait went pretty quick. Inside has beautiful artwork on the walls that can be purchased.

But that bread pudding was phenomenal and the star of the show.I highly recommend it. As our main entre we ordered the wet burrito, pastrami,build your omelette with mushrooms, tomatoes, and green onions. Everything was delicious. A special thank you to our server Kecia.

Kitchen was small but busy and efficient. Looked at the menu and the thing that struck me was the price point. They were a bit higher than I would have expected but with the amount of patrons and the trained staff in the kitchen I was excited. We ordered a couple soups and sandwiches and shared. Soup came out fast but it was not as hot as I would want. I don't need soup to burn your mouth, but I don't want it a bit warmer than lukewarm only. The sandwich's came out. Nothing fancy. Not overly stuffed. Everything tasted great but nothing memorable. For the price point there are other places we can go. I might have had an odd day. I will give it another try. 2.8/5

The sandwich had a nice kick and was absolutely worth ordering again. I also had the opportunity to meet the owner, which made the experience even better.

Very clean and everyone who worked there was so kind and eager to help with our table of 8. The chef/owner came out to chat about our friends adorable baby and gush about her new grandson. very precious interaction. The menu has OPTIONS and literally everything our party had looked amazing. I got the bed head BLT and the bacon was so thicc I want it every day of my life. The bread was hearty and a little more toasted than preferred, but better that than soggy. I think the crusty bread just made it harder to eat. (But we made it work HA! So yummy) the potatoes had so much flavor, rosemary which I loved but some of the kids in the party did not care for. My partner got the breakfast nook and it was pretty simple and tasty. The fruit and yogurt bowl was a hit and looked incredibly fresh. The naan plate also got good reviews. We would go back if we're ever randomly in Lansing again. Plus we love to support a woman owned business!
