great food in a great neighborhood. this small neighborhood cafe has tasty food and great ambiance. their breakfast options are all wonderful. i particularly like the buckwheat pancakes and the omelettes, and the home fries that accompany almost every breakfast item on the menu are delicious. if you should happen to be there for lunch, the portobello mushroom sandwich is also terrific. the prices are fair, and the staff is quirky, friendly and fun.
my only complaint is that my coworkers and i will sometimes catch what we hope to be a quick lunch, but the service seems to get slower when less people are in the restaurant. we've been there when we were one of only two tables in the restaurant, and still waited 20 minutes for our check, or even a refill, which sometimes never came. that being said, if your company is not very strict with the standard lunch "hour," the food is definitely worth the trip.
