The food was soooooo good. I had the banana pancakes and enjoyed every bite. I’m definitely coming back to try the salmon toast. The service was fast and friendly and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming.

Excellent food! We had the eggs benni and sweet potato hash. Hollandaise was homemade and full of flavor. Hash was the best I ever ate!

Beautiful, cozy setting with a small menu of awesome homemade style food and friendly service. Lots of outdoor seating. Second time here, had the shrimp and polenta. It was soooo good! Imagine if the best cook you know made you a home cooked meal of whatever you wanted. That’s what the food here is like!

Came for breakfast but didn't realize breakfast isn't served after 1100 but did stay for lunch and super glad we did! I got the BLTA (contrary to Chris Anderson's review below) & it was phenomenal. My hubby got the Italian sandwich and also loved it! We plan to come back for breakfast before 1100 tomorrow to try it out and get some lattes. Service was great & they do check on you after you're seated and eating.

The best early breakfast ever, chefs way was a surprise, texas breakfast perfection, for the first time I tried an apple cider mimosa, I don't know what I've been missing! Overall, this place rocks.

Was excited to have a good breakfast and was more than disappointed. Walking in expecting to be greeted and seated, the girl at the front said to order first. She did not offer a greeting, smile or anything. My wife told her that we were new and had not been in before, still no direction. We ordered our food, coffee and juice. She put the cups on the counter. My wife asked for creamer and was told it was around the corner. Another staff person put empty cups down and said they were for water. I asked were we suppose to carry all that along with the silverware to our table? The first girl just looked unsure of what to say and another staff member behind her offered to carry it to our table. We ordered the Eggs Benedict and Corned beef hash with 2 eggs over medium. When the server brought the food to our table, I asked for hot sauce. She pointed over her shoulder and said over there. One of the eggs on my hash was over medium but the other was hard. I honestly was so upset at this point for the lack of service and care by the staff that I asked for a refund. My wife ate about 1/4 of the eggs Benedict. She did not like the taste and said that it was over seasoned for her. We did enjoy the flavor of the OJ and coffee. There was no one coming around to remove plates so I did set a plate on a table that was not being used. This did upset the one girl who happened to walk by. The rolling of her eyes and shake of her head was enough for me to say drink up and let's go. A manager did come over with our receipt for the refund and did listen to our experience. She did say they had only been open for about a month and was working a few kinks out and was apologetic. To me it all felt a little food truck like and not really a sit down restaurant. You can compensate bad service with good food but when you have bad service and bad food, it is hard to imagine myself returning.

Perfect place to have a laid back breakfast on the patio. The eggs Benny is SOOO good. My daughter loves the kids pancakes. Tons of seating outside makes it a super relaxing place even if it's a busy Saturday. 5 star food with a small town cozy vibe.

Food was good and the service was great. The staff is extremely attentive. I had the Loaded Forky. Eggs were slightly overcooked but I assume it's because they cooked the eggs with the extra veggies I ordered. I heard another customer mention her Loaded Forky eggs being overcooked as well. My daughter had a regular Forky and the eggs were perfect. Go with the regular Forky.
Pro Tip: review the menu online before entering so you can skip the crowd at the front door that are reviewing a paper menu.
