| - You need to be a local.....I guess.
"Super cute spot"?, yes it is. And brunch may be better than the standard breakfast, but at $21.39 for a latte, 2 eggs with bacon, potatoes and 2 pieces of fruit, and 30 minutes to get it, it's easy to see past the "cuteness".
Mitzi's is located among a quiet residential neighborhood....a great spot to chill with a coffee and maybe a muffin. There are approx. 10 tables and I can see how it can get busy, especially in the morning. Anyone living in close proximity would probably frequent Mitzi's for a coffee and maybe a pastry. It's a nice place to unwind and catch up on new Facebook posts or the latest news. But if you want a decent breakfast at a "normal" price with quick service, this may not be the place for you.
After reading all the great reviews, I went out of my way to have breakfast at Mitzi's. And I could argue against myself that I was a) in a hurry, b) looking to be amazed or c) wanting to share in the hype, as the reasons why I gave it such a low rating, but the reality in my case was that a) the service was very slow, b) the food was not that great and c) it was about as expensive as the Ritz Carlton.
If you're in the area, drop by Mitzi's for a coffee and check the place out. However, if you plan on going out of your way to experience what the locals (who have written the awesome reviews) say is "outstanding", you may be disappointed.
If you want a creative breakfast, go to Easy on Queen and Roncesvalles.
