    We went here on Valentine’s Day for breakfast on a whim and ended up happy we decided to do so. The chef/owner was going around to the tables and passing out little chocolates. It was so cute! I got the manila breakfast and my husband ordered the santa fe hash. Both meals were enjoyable in their own ways. The server was nice and attentive as well. Would love to visit again!

    Super tasty Filipino and American breakfast in a cheery and cozy spot with tabletops tiled in white penny-round tile and walls covered with eclectic homey decor. During warmer weather, they also have outdoor seating.

    What to get:n- The Pork Belly Adobo (served with white rice or garlic rice, 2 eggs any style, side of achara pickles, cucumber, tomato. The adobo is super tasty and goes so well with the pickle, rice, and eggs.)n- Chicken and Waffles (the chicken [one piece dark, one piece white] is SO good, but it's a long wait if you order this; my guess is they're incredibly good at frying chicken and also fry to order, but they don't have a pressure fryer which is way faster, but is also a really huge piece of equipment)n- Santa Fe Hash (chorizo, bell peppers, red onion, garlic, cheese, tomato, potatoes, and toast)...we can't over-emphasize how well this dish is cooked: the potatoes are perfectly crisp, the peppers and onions are perfectly caramelized, there's the right amount of slightly crisped chorizo, and everything goes great with the eggs.n- Two Eggs with Bacon if you're a fan of crispy thick-cut bacon (with toast and choice of home-fried potatoes or fried garlic rice)n- The Garlic Fried RicennService is attentive, friendly, and on point. They'll remember you if you visit often. :) Note: they can get busy with long food-prep times during peak hours on weekends, so plan accordingly.

    Had an amazing dining experience! Chef Tucker was incredibly hospitable and made us feel truly welcome from the moment we arrived. The food was absolutely delicious every dish was flavorful and clearly prepared with care. Toby was our waiter and he was awesome super friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The combination of great service and fantastic food made the whole experience memorable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back again with my family!

    Super cute cafe my husband and I stopped at on our trip! We were able to walk to it from our place we were staying. There was a bigger party inside and it was pretty loud in the restaurant but my husband and I could still have a conversation. They did have a patio that started opening up as we were leaving which I am sure would be a little more quiet if you were looking for that! The food was fantastic, they had a great menu and lots of meals for vegetarians as well that are labeled on the menu! We would definitely recommend this cafe to anyone in the area!

    If I could give this cafe 10 stars, I totally would! This morning I was out running errands when I decided to pop in on a whim and I’m SO glad I did.

    As soon as I walked up, there was a special posted at the door that briefly caught my eye. I was dining solo, got greeted right away. I ordered a coffee which was super fresh (no burnt or bitter taste, phew). Everything on the menu sounded amazing but I went for the Filipino-inspired special... and WOW, it was absolutely delicious! 10/10. Every bite was unique, smoky, sweet, salty, tangy and the bed of garlic rice w/ my medium over-easy eggs? Total perfection. The way I cleaned my plate...lolnnThe whole team was so friendly and welcoming. I even got to meet the owner, Larry, his wife, their son Toby and Carlos. Just such a great vibe all around! Will definitely be back.
