| - Ok, I've been here twice now and it's definitely a great spot.
However, my first visit was better than the 2nd. I just wasn't as impressed with my food the 2nd time around, although it was still good.
On my 1st trip, I had the Country Benedict and it was EVERYTHING!! I was having trouble deciding whether I wanted eggs bennie or CFS, and this was the perfect compromise because it's BOTH! It was so dang delicious and I still dream about it.
The 2nd visit, I couldn't decide between the pastrami hash or chilaquiles. I went with the hash and I just wasn't impressed. It was a strange dish.....and the pastrami was almost non-existent (although in the picture it looks like there's a lot - this is not true. They were these weird little strips and the dish was just strange). Now I wish I would've tried the chilaquiles instead. Oh well, maybe next time. My friend and I also shared the foie gras french toast, which was AMAZING!! It was really good, and although you might think $22 is a lot of a breakfast dish - FOIE! Pretty hard to beat, and the serving was pretty large.
The guava mimosa I had was really yummy, but I wasn't a fan of the blackberry version (although that was my friend's fave).
This eatery is small and cute and made to be a "social" dining experience, with a large communal table highlighting the dining room. The service is great and there is definitely something for everyone on the menu. I just wish they would serve bloody marys - or at least a good michelada (right now they only serve beer/wine).
I 100% will be back and I suggest you go check it out ASAP!! Note that they don't take reservations and it gets very busy - so take your patience and appetite and be prepared to wait!
