| - Little Fish has a lot going for it. Besides being the nicest breakfast restaurant in the Junction, they have an amazing staff, comfortable seating and a relaxed, pleasing atmosphere...on the weekdays. Weekends this place gets mad jammed and the babies ratio the adults 2 to 1.
Food: very nice basic breakfast with eggs and either bacon or homemade sausage, homefries and a wide range of breads for toast, pancakes (with bacon!! or banana), french toast, daily scramble, benedicts on weekends, good selection of sandwiches for lunch.
Great prices, very reasonable.
I'm giving Little Fish 3 stars because although it is good, its not often great and it is so close to great I wish they would take it a little further. Both the espresso based and drip coffees leave something to be desired. There are really no good options on this menu for healthy eating. I hate that the one thing that is touted as healthy is called 'the skinny bitch' - and that it has outdated health options like cottage cheese and dry toast. What about just a nice fruit/granola dish? Or any fruit at all. There is no fruit offered here (except tomato) which seems crazy to me for a breakfast place. There may have been an orange garnish? The vegetarian option is either and avocado or tomato...but I find that the avocado just isn't right with the textures of their meals and the tomato in winter was...well a tomato in winter. Maybe in summer it would be a better side. They also don't vary their menu except for a daily scramble which usually includes meat and cheese. It would be great to see a little more variation in the menu, a few more interesting options for vegetarians/healthy eating and I'd love to see some fruit offered! I get that this isn't being marketed as a health resto and that there are other options in the hood, but it would just be such an easy and remarkably appreciated improvement to this nice breakfast place.
