My sister had previously gone here and recommended this place to me. I chose to have the eggs Benedict with the loaded potatoes (bell peppers). My sister got the breakfast panini (cheese, avocado, egg, bacon). I personally loved my eggs Benedict. They weren’t the best I’ve ever had but they were good!My sister on the other hand didn’t enjoy her panini. “I thought the eggs could have used a bit more salt. It could have used a bit more flavor. And they need more choices for coffee”.The interior was cute and decorated kind of hipster. The location is somewhat small but there’s a lot of outside seating. However, we were informed the city wants to remove the outside seating by September (hopefully not). Lastly, the staff was extremely friendly. I will for sure keep going here. ?

First time coming here and we absolutely loved it. The staff is super nice, very hospitable and helpful. We loved how the waiter took time to go over some of their dishes and didn't seem bothered to have to do so. We got two coffees, yes they offer refills, the eggs benedict, which are to die for, and the breakfast panini, also fantastic, and we shared the French toast.The french toast was amazing, not super sweet and pretty light. It's lightly toasted so the crunch adds a great texture to it, it's not your traditional triangle cut bread.The three dishes were shared by two adults and not one left feeling over stuffed or hungry. Just the right amount of food. Will definitely come again. Just be aware that the closer it gets to lunch time the busier they get. We arrived at 830 and there was only a few people there. They have indoor and outdoor seating.

Atmosphere: 10/10! Cute cozy interior, lovely sunny patio area.Customer service: 8/10! Friendly and efficient staff, although there’s no clear host stand, or obvious place to check in/pay.Food quality: 2/10. Bland, mediocre and overpriced. We ordered the bbq sandwich and the juevos rancheros. Was not worth the wait tbh! Maybe just an off day. I never complained to the staff, I’m sure they would have handled it wonderfully.

Like Old Town Orange (formally The Circle) blocks have been closed to accommodate outdoor dining. We really appreciate that!! Incredibly friendly wait staff!!

Got the steak to the correct doneness I asked for! Pretty hard to see cafes that offer steaks to be this good with their steak. Good amount of seasoning too. Only flaw is that their hash browns were severely bland...no seasoning. Great texture, but no seasoning.8/10

So good! And, for the area, very well-priced. It's a teeny-tiny little spot that's a few blocks from the wharf, but it's worth checking out, especially if you're tired of the touristy stuff and the prices that come with it.The banana-granola pancakes were probably the best pancakes I've ever had. Eggs were flavorful and the bacon was cut thick, so much to like at this little spot. The service was prompt and friendly, a great way to start your day.

I had a very unpleasant experience as I wanted to eat here. The people in the kitchen and waitress were wildly rubbing in their attitude about why I have a service dog. I got the coffee served in a paper cup, and not to mention she had forgotten about the slices of lemon.I felt that the unwelcome homeless guy in front of the store was an ominous indication of the coffee store.I suggest going somewhere else, which has a classic example style of service.

Gotta get the Turkey, Av and Swiss sandwich! Delicious. This place is very cool and very quick with your food. Get down there early, because everyone else must know that it is amazing as well! Agent B

The interior is beautiful. My husband enjoyed his food but my food was missing major components. I would definitely give them a try again. Hopefully next time will be better.

I, honestly, excepted more. The reviews for this place gave me too high a standard I guess... I took my grandparents here for brunch and we waited at least an hour for service and food in total. When the food arrived, the portions were small and underwhelming. I had the French toast which was decent, but the way they cross it makes a large portion of bread missing berries and cream making it untasteful. My grandfather had the granola pancakes and they did not have very much granola at all. My grandmother got the little Rialto and didn't have much to remark upon. Probably won't come again.
