| - This place could standalone as a great breakfast/brunch spot, but the adjoining pizzeria and self-contained grocery store send it over the top! It was as if I never left Seattle walking in. A coffee stand to the left, pre packaged salads and sandwiches in a to-go area on the right, and a huge wall to wall menuboard full of breakfast, brunch, salad, drink, and bakery goodies!
I ordered the croque madame with prosciutto and thought it was very good. The egg white on the over easy egg was a little undercooked, but the prosciutto was really the standout of the dish. Thicker than normal cuts with great flavor added the much needed salt to the open faced sandwich. I really enjoyed the sweet pickles accompanying the sandwich.
The parking situation is pretty rough, especially on a weekend. I was able to snag the last spot in a "25 minute" area knowing I'd pretty much be in and out. They also have several spots in the front of the store for a "drive-in" type service. You park, somebody comes out to take your order, delivers your goodies, takes your payment, and sends you on your merry way. Cool concept for those on the go!
They had a check-in offer to receive 50% off a scoop of their gelato that looked delicious, but I already had plans for a frozen treat following LGO.
