| - I was so looking forward to eating here after reading the reviews. But, I realize now that the rating is high because there are few alternative vegan/vegetarian places in Phoenix. The breakfast was fine, just not all what I was hoping for.
Breakfast tofu eggs were spiced but, it was one-note, nothing special. Breakfast potatoes (fried russet) were served hot but very bland (no veggies, etc). Avocado on toast came with arugula, sprouts, cashew pesto -- sounds good but did not add up to great.
The herbal tea was amazingly good, as was the service, both at the counter and in the kitchen. The folks working here are awesome. The cafe has a choice of seating areas that make it a wonderful choice for small groups, as well as singles eating alone.
The Coronado was fine. And, for Phoenix it may be outstanding. But, if you've had good vegan breakfasts elsewhere (Tucson Bentley's; Salt Lake City Vertical Diner, etc), then the Coronado won't meet your expectations. But, if you are lazy and don't feel like cooking breakfast for yourself, then the Coronado is the place to go.
