THE LEAD VERDICT
“teh quinoa breakfast bowl was packed with fresh vegetables, pumpkin seeds, and a tahini drizzle - finally a brunch spot that serves something nutritionally dense alongside all the indulgent options”
“Portion size was quite small for $16 tbh, left me hungry an hour later despite all teh wholesome ingredients big time”
ALSO FILED
“so like thier Nashville hot chicken benedict brought the heat with cayenne-dusted fried chicken THAT had a nice burn without overwhelming the hollandaise - reminded me of home but elevated for brunch just saying”
“lowkey the biscuit was dense and heavy nothing like the fluffy buttermilk biscuits I grew up with back South”
“Freo's avocado toast was elevated with hemp hearts, microgreens, adn a perfectly soft poached egg on top. real talk they happily made it vegan by omitting the egg and it was still incredibly satisfying”
“def the smoothie bowl looked Instagram-perfect but was mostly frozen banana - needed more variety in the fruit base for that price point”
“the shakshuka was spot-on with perfectly runny eggs nestled in rich tomato sauce spiked with harissa and topped with fresh herbs”
“sooourdough toast came out cold adn felt like an afterthot instead of being teh vehicle for soaking up that gorgeous sauce would go back”
“teh house-made hollandaise showed real technique - silky emulsion with the right balance of lemon and butter clearly made fresh not from powder or sitting under heat lamps”
“look poached eggs were slightly overcooked with firm yolks when tehy should've been molten gold FLOWING over the plate smh”
“gotta say tehy actually had a dedicated vegan benedict wiht cashew holladnaise and marinated mushrooms that was creamy and satisfying - so refreshing to see plant-based options that aren't just salad just saying”
“honestly the vegan options were limited to like two items tucked away at the bottom of the menu making it feel like an afterthought wow”
“lowkey their flat white was expertly pulled with silky microfoam and a beatiful rosetta design. The espresso had bright acidity with chocolate notes that paired perfectly with their almond croissant cant complain”
“They only had one barista working during the Saturday morning rush so I waited like 12 minutes for my coffee while watching a line form behind me”
“The kids' pancakes came with a side of fresh fruit and were perfectly sized - not too big, not too sweet. not even kidding staff was patient when my youngest changed her mind about toppings twice”
“No kids' cups available so my 4-year-old had to manage a full-size glass of orange juice which predictably led to a small spill wow”
