Phenomenal French Toast Redeems Meal
I really wanted to complain about the roasted veggies bowl because it tasted gross. Until! Until I tried this phenomenal pistachio banana French toast… this is the best French toast I’ve ever tried, please try it yourself. It was that delicious that I forgot about my veggie bowl. I forgave them everything. A person who made this French toast must be a genius. I will come back only for this toast and bring other people to try it. So good!

EGG-cellent Brunch Spot!
My husband and I had an EGG-cellent brunch experience at this perfect spot! He enjoyed a delicious mimosa made with fresh OJ. I savored an almond milk latte that tasted great, with fab milk and a nice mug. We shared a vegetarian burrito that was generously sized, so delicious we finished every bite, and we're already looking forward to returning. The service was fast and friendly, and the Bossa Nova music created a good atmosphere.

Terrible Food, Decent Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was largely negative due to the food quality. The food was grim, and it caused my husband to experience diarrhoea within half an hour of eating. My chilaquiles were a soggy mass of tortilla chips with flavourless toppings. I cannot understand the positive reviews, unless the kitchen was having an exceptionally bad day when we visited. On a positive note, the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

Delicious French Toast & Great Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the amazing bananas foster French toast, which was truly delicious. The staff were friendly, contributing to a wonderful dining experience. The atmosphere was beautiful, clean, and aesthetically pleasing; even the bathroom was fancy. I also appreciated the great selection of coffee drinks at a good price, and the food was also well-priced with generous portions. The location is bright and sunny, right on the corner of Austin and Franklin. I'd give it a 10/10!

Poor service and dim lighting
My experience at the restaurant was marked by poor service from the staff, who failed to communicate effectively regarding seating and the menu. Additionally, the lighting was quite dim, suggesting a need to invest in more bulbs, even energy-efficient ones.

Great Coffee, Friendly Staff, Wish They Were Open More
My experience at this restaurant was largely positive. The coffee was good, and the price was fair. I found the staff to be super friendly. My only wish is that they would open on Mondays and Tuesdays as well!

A Gem with Great Food and Service!
This place is such a gem! I had an amazing food experience with great lattes. The service was incredible, and the staff are amazing. They also have great vegan options! My mom loved it too. The only downside is the location, as it's on a super busy street with hard-to-find parking. I'd recommend walking or taking the muni.
