Ambiance/Decor: 5/5
A cute brunch spot with limited seating, but homey feel and a nice chalkboard wall, so great aesthetic.
Service: 3/5
It was pretty empty for a Saturday, at less than half capacity I thought it would be easy to flag down our server if necessary, but it was surprisingly difficult. The staff was mostly inattentive. Some of our food came out cold--how they managed to make a breakfast burrito cold on the inside and out is beyond me--and when we asked to have it heated, we were met with reluctance and a little disbelief that it was possible for our food to be cold.
Food: 2/5
Around the table we had a couple of Breakfast Burritos, a Breakfast Banh Mi, and the Lemon Curd Pancakes.
On the whole, everything that was served to us was lukewarm. Two of the breakfast burritos were downright cold on the inside which is really difficult to do. For whatever reason, they dont put their breakfast burritos in the oven before serving them so the cheese that is sprinkled on top is also cold and not melted. The flavoring of the meat was pretty good, but it's really hard to enjoy a cold breakfast when you were expecting a hot one.
The Breakfast Banh Mi was probably the best out of the entrees ordered, but even then was just OK. Cleveland seems to have some obsession with Korean and Vietnamese food, but doesnt really execute it well and this was no exception. It was okay, nothing great.
The pancakes were the biggest disappointment. For an establishment whose name is a play on "Flap Jacks," I was expecting a decent pancake at the least. The pancakes were nothing special and honestly, were a little burnt. The lemon and berry topping was good, but couldnt save the pancakes themselves from having a really dry texture and burnt taste. And again, the pancakes were pretty cold. it seemed like they had been made earlier and just zapped in the microwave at low heat before being served to us.
Definitely wouldnt come here again.
