A very cool place to have lunch . Excellent soups and salads along with sinful home-made ice-cream. A very nice place to enjoy good food and do some people watching .

A classic eatery for Houstonians whether you’re craving breakfast , lunch , or dinner . Perfectly fluffy omelets , delectable Pot Roast Grilled Cheese , and hand spun gelato await you.

blackened salmon ceaser salad !! it combines three great things: ceaser salad , salmon , and spicy food ! definitely worth a try.

Xenia Urich-Sass

Wonderful Eggs Benedict, lots of variations , a small waiting line to order, manageable. A little noisy , but worth it. I will surely return????

leanne

I really love their blackened salmon ceaser salad , cheesy garlic bread , and their burgers . also, their gelato is amazing

MC

The breakfast and meals were yummy... Especially blue cheese burger ..

Christy Landes

Great breakfasts and selection of iced teas , including decaf . I like the grilled chicken sandwich and salad with mango vinaigrette . They validate garage parking .

Marsha Hanchett

The service was self-serve which wasn't bad bc it was me! My entree was good & tiramisu gelato was great. Although they could do a better job at keeping floors clean , especially if you aren't busy.

Risa Philpot

The presentation was a little crappy for my to-go order???? ..But! I have to admit it was still very good????

Jeff Rosenbaugh

Chipotle Chicken Pepper Pasta is probably my favorite, but the Blue Cheeseburger is delicious & comes w/ sweet potato fries (best sp fries I've ever had)! Pass on the chips/salsa or the Walnut Chicken

Mazanin F

The pot roast entrée is huge, it probably has more meat than you can/should eat in one meal!

Jack Guo

Affordable prices. Large quantity of food. Good taste. Free style of ordering. Nice place to grab a bite.

Andres Elizondo

Any of their pastas are great. The gelatos make excellent desserts as well .

Tonya Bush

Love this place. But I still don't understand why the red head guy still has a job. His customer service skills are very poor. I cringe when I see he will be the one taking my order.

Melinda

The healthier than the rest omelette is great. This is a great place for breakfast .

A.Lenay ????

Chicken & waffles are great. Sunday brunch line starts around 130PM. Get there before then.

Perfectly poached eggs . Popular place for breakfast/brunch.

If you haven't been in a while they have been updating their menu. Try the fajita tacos . They are amazing.

Kelly ???? Martin

They got rid of my favorite salad : the warm bacon and spinach . My reasons to come here have dropped

White chocolate mocha amazing! So is the challah french toast

Sunday Brunch here is excellent. I loved the french toast .

Kaley Daniel

The Strawberry Green Tea is very good & refreshing. No sugar needed IMO!

Boneless buffalo wing tacos are fantastic. Perfect amount of spice and it comes with a delicious Asiago cheese dipping sauce .Also enjoy their flavored ice teas .

Kaley Daniel

I do believe the French Fries are the best seasoned fries I've had.

Ashjan Q8

the pistachio ice cream is outstanding!

Sheryl Resurreccion

The crab stuffed mushrooms appetizer and the potroast entree were both amazing... And try the flavored teas !

Kaley Daniel

The Turkey Croissant Club is most delicious! Great sauce!

Ashley Niichole

The best service you'll get at a restaurant . Love this place!!

Jennifer Melancon

I always get the huevos Mexicanos . The coffee drinks are great!

Penelope

Gorgonzola pasta with chicken ... It's my husband's favorite! It's not on the menu , but you can still order it.

Kimberly King

Delicious food tastes better when there's a pet friendly patio (unlike this location).

Nazlı Demirag

I got blue cheese burger with sweet potato fries and small stella... Fantastico...

David Ortez

If you are willing to challenge your taste buds ... go for the Fiesta Jalapeno Chicken or Chipotle Chicken Pepper Pasta for a yummy Italian/Mexican fusion.

Jesreve Edward

Sweet potato fries were cold by the time my order was served. Spicy chicken sandwich on Gluten-free bread was “ok”, nothing great.

Gonzo Perez-Garcia

Enjoy the best of all types of breakfast by ordering a pancake sandwich : eggs , bacon & cheese squeezed in between carby goodness and powdered sugar !

Lateefah Brown

The Ahi Tuna Salad is super refreshing in hot weather. Loved it!

@rmfoto

Great service every time. Love their ability to be flexible with my eating requirements.

Get the Lemon Chicken pasta . Served with mushrooms and topped with a mouthwatering Alfredo sauce . Mango tango iced tea . Parking is hectic.
