    Totally the place to go! They have great food all around. The atmosphere also has a great vibe and is worth taking friends, family, or a date. The pecan crusted chicken or Betsy's linguini are great!

    Atmosphere/ambiance is great! Crispy Chicken Waffle was a great first time experience - however I would have preferred if the chicken was hot and fresh vs the cold one I had

    For omelettes you choose your own toppings. Mine was so good I came back the next day and got French toast! Light and fluffy and a large portion.

    I enjoyed the avocado mash with eggs over easy. Great fresh flavor however the toast was difficult to cut with a knife. Worth the effort non the less.

    One of the best places to eat in the Uptown area but I most often visit for brunch. Order the omelet your way and don't forget to add jalapeños (even though it's not on the list!)

     Great for all day eating! Delicious food in a cute atmosphere for ~$12 per person – get the refried black beans as your side, you won’t regret it!

    Delicious sandwiches, soups and salads. Arrive at 11:30 if you don't want to wait in a long line out the door and if you would like to sit at a table.

    Yes chicken and waffles, but the chicken salad and sweet potato fries is pretty darn good too.

    My steak was horrible. Easily one of the worst-prepared steaks I've ever bought. But there is a good vibe and the restaurant is packed with nice people,only I haven't eaten anything praiseworthy here.

    Prosciutto in the morning? I'll at least try it. A prosciutto pita that works? And is amazeballs? Thank you sir, I'll have another. And be back many more times. :)

    Had the poke salad - good ginger sauce; excellent menu options; a little loud for conversation but a good vibe

    If you get an entree that gives the option of regular fries or sweet potato fries...get the sweet potato fries. They're awesome!

    Love the vibe, decor and the food concepts seem nice, but still waiting to be completely wowed. Convenient for those who work in the Galleria. Not giving up on this yet but $14 lunches...not ideal.
