    Spanish Frittata
    Vivian P.

    Breakfast Date with My Bestie! Came back here for a breakfast date with my bestie, and this spot is conveniently located in a plaza, so there's plenty of parking--always a win! We arrived around 8:30 AM, so the line was practically nonexistent and we were seated right away. I've heard this place gets pretty packed starting around 10 AM, so coming early definitely worked in our favor! Spanish Frittata + Home Potatoes & Sourdough -- $19.69 Rating: 8/10 The cheese on top was melted to the perfect amount, and the combination of avocado, chorizo, and bell peppers gave the frittata a really nice balance of flavors. The home potatoes and sourdough were a great addition to make it a filling breakfast without feeling too heavy. Overall, a really solid breakfast spot with friendly and fast service. Definitely coming back when I'm in the mood for another breakfast date! Happy eats!

    Came here for lunch w/my family on Saturday - it was very busy but the wait didn't feel too bad. We sat inside and upon walking in, I was blown away by how colorful and busy the place was. The decor itself is such a sight to see. Lots of options on the menu - we tried the shrimp omelette, the banana nut pancake, the chilaquiles & the chicken fried steak. That banana nut pancake was amazing, it was my favorite item and it reminded me of childhood because my mom would always make banana nut muffins! Service was great, everyone was very nice and attentive. Would definitely come back to try out some other items! There's also patio seating as well.

    French toast is wayyyyyyy awesome!! Love it! My hubby found this place and we came here for breakfast. Inside atmosphere immediately caught my eyes and made me feel the home welcoming vibe. They are friendly, fast, and food is excellent. Must try this great place, I will say this is my favourite place in town now! Thank you Violet Rooster!

    Fun vibe has shaded outside seating too

    Easy to get into, no waits during the week and fun atmosphere. Food is great, large portions with a special vibe. Not like it just came out of the freezer. Plan to pay $50 for two people but it worth the price! Try it but don't make it too busy for me ;)

    ​ A Fabulous (and Filling!) Mother's Day Brunch! ​Came here on a Saturday with my daughter and grandchildren for an early Mother's Day brunch, and it did not disappoint! The Violet Rooster is a fantastic little brunch spot with unique, charming decor and seriously generous portions. ​ PRO TIP: Reservations are highly recommended through Yelp! It is not a very large restaurant, so if you don't book ahead, expect to wait about 30 to 40 minutes for a table (which is exactly what we waited). Because of the cozy size, it's also probably not the best spot for big parties of more than 8 people. They do have both indoor seating and an outdoor patio option. ​Once we were seated, our server was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the meal. We started with drinks--a Violet's Secret Mimosa and a Paloma--both were refreshing and well-made. ​For food, we ordered a bit of everything: ​Feta Me Betta: Egg whites scrambled with spinach, mushrooms, red bell pepper, turkey sausage, feta, and everything spice. It came with homestyle potatoes, fresh salsa, and a piece of sourdough. It was packed with flavor! ​Traditional Eggs Benedict: Canadian bacon with a perfect traditional hollandaise sauce that my daughter loved. ​Happy Hendrix Pancake: A super fluffy buttermilk pancake with a smiley face made out of fresh fruit and confetti sprinkles. It was an absolute hit with my granddaughter! ​All in all, a wonderful experience. The portions are huge--we definitely couldn't finish everything and happily took leftovers home. As a bonus, the bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. Just keep in mind that the parking lot is on the smaller side, so give yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot. ​We will definitely be back!

    This place is awesome. Very energetic kind if vibe of a restaurant. Music while you're eating is a good vibe. The interior decors are unique. So many things on the ceiling that I can't keep looking up. Now the staff is kind and fast but not attentive. The food, well compliments to the chefs who prepared it. I love my order. Everyone in my party was having S good brunch. I'm most definitely coming back here.

    Heard this place was busy so we joined the waitlist online as we made our way to the restaurant and that made our wait faster. Burrito was delicious, I chose chorizo as my protein. The biscuits and gravy was okay, it tasted like it was missing something but I couldn't figure out what. There wasn't enough gravy that I was just eating the biscuit by itself. The interior was pretty cool and very different with the decorations. Only complaint is our waiter never checked up on us after our food was served so we kept having to find someone (anyone who passed by) for things we needed. We asked for a box and our check but only got the box. Then even after our plates were taken off the table, we waited 10min just for us to ask AGAIN for the check because our waiter was too busy chit chatting with the women next to our table.

    First time trying this place and we loved it!, no wait for a party of 2, great service since the beginning, we ordered chilaquiles green with 2 eggs and they were delicious , also we ordered banana pancakes also very good and fluffy, our coffee was very good too, ALSO they are fast!! We ordered our food and in 5 minutes they served our plates, so great service, very good food, nice ambience, nice music not overwhelming, and very fast!

    We have been trying to eat at this restaurant for quite some time, but it is always so packed. We finally got a chance to eat here. It was a nice morning so we sat outside with our dog. The servers were nice and they were friendly with our dog as well. There is a pup menu for the fur friends! I got the chilaquiles and the food was okay, but lacked some heat and salt. The beans overpowered the dish.

    Avocado Toast w/ egg and fried potato's

    This place is a nice little breakfast eatery. The decoration is fun and the food is great. My daughter had the French Toast and said it tasted like churros, and she was right. It was great and the portion size is huge. I had the Avocado Toast and it was great. The seasoning, the bacon crumble, and the feta made the meal pop. We will most definitely be coming back here. Also, they do serve lunch.

    Excellent service and good! The ambiance was cool! Reminded me of spots you find around the beach for breakfast. Really loved it all!! We tried the buttermilk pancakes and the country breakfast. They both didn't disappoint!!

    We arrived early and waited outside with a bit of a line. Someone arrived and walked in and didn't say anything to the customers waiting outside. We all walked in and waited for someone to seat us. It was another few minutes before a second person arrived and sat everyone. He was the only server. One person in our group of 5 received the wrong order (pancakes instead of French toast). That individual also ordered the magic (I forget the name) but it was a mix of coffee and hot chocolate. There was no magic (sprinkles) so I asked the waiter for her to get them. As far as food... out of the five of us only two really loved their dishes. I ordered the tots and I swear it stated there was nacho cheese but they had queso. I do not like queso at all so I wouldn't have ordered them had it stated such on the menu. The tots were also soft, I would have preferred crispy. The country fried steak and the omelette with jalapeños got good reviews. The breakfast burrito was described as ok as well as the French toast. The salsa came for the burrito at the end of the meal as well. Maybe they had a server call out, maybe they always have just one. It was a far drive for me so I'm not sure I'd return. The server was very friendly at least, I just think he really could've used some help.

    Breakfast burrito, biscuits and gravy, Real Deal Chilaquiles
    Rachelle T.

    So much personality in this restaurant! We added ourselves to the waitlist around 11am on a weekend and got a call that our table was ready. I was amazed at how it looked inside. So vibrant and lively, and loved how the tables, chairs, and walls are decorated with such intention. The walls are personalized with travels, while all the chairs are handmade and painted as well. I loved hearing about heater behind everything! Food was delicious! Big portions and worth sharing. The breakfast burrito was tasty, and you can choose potatoes or tater tots on the side. The biscuits and gravy was huge and pretty good too! Service was great and even got a $10 voucher to use any time after that day. Note: You can ask to use it on merch!

Instead of tossing it, they offered the butterscotch latte for free, which I really appreciated. Mistakes happen, but the way they handled it made for a great customer service experience. The banana matcha latte was really good, smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet, which is exactly how I like my matcha. The butterscotch latte wasn't my favorite because it was a bit too sweet for my taste, but if you have a sweet tooth, you'll probably enjoy it. They also have pastries and cookies, however I didn't get to The ambiance is definitely one of the highlights. The café has a cozy industrial vibe with exposed brick walls, warm lighting, and cute decor that makes it feel inviting. There are plenty of tables by the windows, a cozy back room that's quieter, and several spots that would be perfect for studying, working, catching up with friends, or even a casual coffee date. It has a relaxed atmosphere where you can easily spend a couple of hours. Overall, the drinks were solid, the customer service was thoughtful, and the space is somewhere I'd come back to try other drinks and sweets. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

As a visual person, it did hamper the ambiance for me, especially since I was sitting right next to it. We were the only table that wasn't a couple, and even when it got more crowded, the noise level was pleasantly low. Our server asked us how we felt about salt, which was very much appreciated. AMARETTO SOUR: 3/5. Very sweet, and orange-forward which is a new flavor profile for this cocktail for me. BREAD & WHIPPED BUTTER: 5/5. Served warm. The bread was pillowy soft, and the butter, (which was more air than butter and therefore definitely zero calories), was delightfully salty. BRUSSELS SPROUTS: 5/5. I've been burned by so many poorly done sprouts that I don't order them anymore, but my partner wanted to try it and I'm so glad we got them. Zero bitterness, and crispier than an newly minted dollar bill. OCTOPUS: 5/5. Grilled to perfection, soft, not rubbery. The spices in the romesco sauce were aromatic and punchy. STEAK TARTARE: 4/5. Good. These crostinis were the most crostinis to have ever crostinied. The perfect vessel for the rich steak. MUSHROOM SOUP: 5/5. This is the first time I've found balance between being truffle-forward without being overbearing. Usually I'm done after about two spoonfuls, but all 3 bowls (shared between 6 of us) were cleaned. SURF & TURF: 5/5. Owen's checks internal and external temperature, which means steak is cooked true to the way it's ordered. More impressive is that they didn't overcook the lobster. A moment for the gorgeous blue plates; they are heirlooms, and only 7 of them exist in the world. CHILEAN SEA BASS: 4/5. For me, the radish did a lot of heavy lifting in balancing out the saltiness of the soy vinaigrette and richness of the fish itself. STEAK FRITES: 4/5. Again, perfectly cooked steak. I only had one fry, and I thought it was a damn good fry, but my partner did say it eventually got salty. And he loves his salt. CAMPING TRIP: 5/5. The crust on the salmon, the theatrics of the hot rock, the fresh veggies. It's a classic for a reason. MAITAKE MUSHROOM: 4/5. While it was good, I didn't find myself continuously reaching for more, as I nearly always do with mushrooms. ROBUCHON POTATOES: 5/5. AKA indulgent, buttery velvet. A labor of love well received. STRAWBERRY TART: 5/5. While the strawberries were phenomenal, the vanilla (?) custard was a little heavy for me. My mom inhaled it though. CRÈME BRÛLÉE: 5/5. So good. I don't know when it became normalized to serve crème with an Ozempic-thin layer of brûlée, but thank you Owen's for not doing that.

Of all my go-to dishes steak frites is probably the hardest to find a decent example for a reasonable price out in the wild. That's why I think Kenwoods is doing a real service of offering a fine example of one for the $25 price point. It was juicy; the chimmichuri, while not the classic bearnaise,sauce, still brought the flavors out in the steak; and the fries tied the whole dinner together like The Dude's rug. I would order this dish every time I come here. The service was great. All my substitutions and requests were handled promptly and courteously. And the server literally checked how I was doing every time she passed by. This is how all restaurants should train their staff. The space is great. It's got a nice energy to it. And although I usually hate bars and gastropubs because of how obnoxious the din can get, I didn't mind the noise here. I appreciated the open floor plan and the place has more TV's and screens to rival Mission Control. This is a good space to chill with friends and have a meal. All in all, this is a good find and a welcome addition to my rotation for when I'm feeling a hankering for steak frites.
