    The burrito I ordered was very good. I didn't get a picture of it. They were very accommodating. It was just opening so there were only a few customers in there. I liked the set up in there. It was a friendly open seating area.

    I had a great experience here for my brother's birthday brunch. Would highly recommend considering everything we ordered was tasty and the portions were reasonable for the price.
    There is no alcohol sold here (just to clarify) but their lattes are great! Ordered a regular and vanilla latte. Perfectly creamy and coffee-y.
    You have the option of picking up your menu on the way in before you sit at your table and then order at the counter OR you can just take a look at the enticing pictures next to the food they offer on the menu located above the order counter.
    The service is where things get a little... "shaky". I am still giving this establishment 5 stars because I don't think their sassy employee who hates being asked about where syrup is should be the reason they receive anything less than 5 (haha).  We all have bad days. So, remember, all the condiments, sauces and syrups are on a little table next to the checkout counter.
    There is a small alley located right outside for parking. We didn't have an issue finding a parking spot but there is definitely a chance one won't be able to find a spot on a busier day. The interior of the restaurant is so unique and I personally fell in love with it. Different tables and chairs, very quirky. The art pieces on the wall were so different and very entertaining to look at! Additionally, what they are doing for artists in the area by selling t-shirts with their art on it is an awesome idea. I had to purchase one!

    All in all, would recommend this place to anyone looking for a non-alcoholic brunch spot.

    What a cute cafe!! I am a chilaquiles-aholic and the ones here were excellent! Service was very friendly.  You order at the counter and they bring out your food.  Place was pretty empty when we went and service was quick.  Parking was a littel strange because a delivery truck was taking up  most of the spots, but we figured it out.  Bathrooms were nice and clean.  Will be back again soon!

    Went there on a Saturday and it was not super busy. I ordered the chilaquiles verdes with chorizo, and the chocolate chip pancakes. Both were delicious! Just like other reviews say, try the chocolate chip pancakes.. they are a must try!!! Ambiance was pretty chill. It's a no frills cafe with great food and service. One thing Is for sure, I definitely will be coming back.
