Wow wow wow. Love everything about this place. Great atmosphere, friendly service , incredible coffee and amazing food. The egg and pesto breakfast sandwich and chorizo torta were both to die for!

Anthony Heleine

House drip coffee Terra Sana with cinnamon infusion. Poblano Eggs were delicious. Eggs ​ Benedict with a poblano cream in place of hollandaise . Light and creamy with fresh poblano flavor.

Good: lemon ricotta pancakes (loved them so much I started making them at home!), biscuits , chilaquiles , huevos rancheros (my favorite), all the beverages (my first espresso soda-YUM). Bad: nothing.

Small place, 15mins wait for 2 on a Saturday noon time. Had the seared salmon sandwich , it was delicious! The potatoes that came with it was yummy too, albeit tad salty.

This place is now open for dinner ! Probably the best Cuban sandwich we've ever had. Also try the salmon cake appetizer .

The egg and pesto breakfast sandwich is not messing around. Topped with some really great bacon , this sandwich is a must try.
