"After reading a few reviews, I'm beginning to wonder if I even dined in the same place as some of you?\n\nUpon entering I got a strangely reminiscent feeling that I'd been here before........Aaahhh Yes I've got it .........Palatte is the reincarnation of the Hippie Commune called the \"Brotherhood\" that I was born in/at. Seriously! My Dad delivered me in a room full of Hippies.\n\nI can't believe no one has mentioned this kind of correlation.\n\nI'm really surprised that everyone wasn't barefoot. The staff scuttled around like drones, I saw flowers, feathers and grizzly beards. This is definitely not what I expected.\n\nYou order at the counter, take a number, sit on chairs that might fall apart, at tables older than your great grandma. Food is dropped off, that's it. There is no \"SERVICE\" here. You get?\n\n If your into the whole hippie dippie, artsy fartsy, grandmas yard sale garden type of feel then you will most likely enjoy it here, not to say that I didn't enjoy it , I was just picturing something completely different and felt mildly out of place, so there for I was disappointed in that aspect. \n\nThe Food, it was good not spectacular, no oooing and aaaahing over every bite. \n\nI got the Potato Mish Mash (scrambled eggs with potato, bacon,spinach,caramelized sweet onion, Gouda and Monterrey Jack) with the raisin,cranberry walnut toast and fresh fruit. (see pics)\nThe eggs were a little wet, but over all had a good flavor, toast was good, fruit was soggy browned apple slices, not so good!\n\nMy Ice tea was cinnamon apple flavor?..........I wish I would have known........not very good for ice tea.\n\nMy husband got The Dolores(with no salsa) two fried eggs, corn tortillas,black beans, queso fresco and avocado.\nIt was also just OK, \nThe eggs were cooked over hard , the beans were dry and the cheese was in unmelted chunks.\nHis OJ was fresh squeezed and sweet that was nice, too bad it was served in a very small child's glass.\n\nOK food, needs to work on a better system, should have waiter service, if you eat outside most tables are coffee table height so you will be hunching over, other than that I guess it's all about the Charm.\n\nPeace and Love!"^^ . .
