LOVED: Fun atmosphere. Great menu. So many fresh, creative choices. The food presentation is spot on. Easy access to water and condiments. Quick beverage service. LIKED: Out table server (she delivered the food. You order at the counter) was friendly and worked to take care of us after the ordering server had messed up our order. She was great! Ordering was taken wrong which resulted in delayed food and overcharge. The food seems real fresh. It was very good - creative - but a bit greasy for me. I should have skipped the cheese on my tofu scramble and skipped the James Dean sausage. I don't like greasy. I think others would have loved it. The tofu with peanut was tasty. MEH: The gluten free French toast was ok but not great. I like eggy French toast. This was airy and fluffy. Others may have loved it. I ABSOLUTELY recommend this place and I would come back again. I would just change my order a little. I do wish they had some egg free breakfast options. I'm thinking this would not be a good place for a vegan.

Went for brunch with my friend. We were seated outside and the weather was perfect. The shade and fans outside kept us cool while it was nice and sunny. Ordered gluten free pancakes 🥞 and they were delicious. 😋 Will stop by again when I'm in the area.

I usually get the Fuzzy Peach smoothie, and it's delicious every time! You can have them make any smoothie with fresh squeezed juice, which is the way I order it. The staff is always pleasant. They have a variety of protein boosts you can add to your smoothies, and they have a pretty big menu of food to select from. I haven't tried any food yet, but I'll update this review once I do. They also have ice cream, cake slices, baked goods, and gluten-free baked goods. My daughter has had the ice cream and said it was the best chocolate ice cream she's ever had.
