I ordered the French Toast & it was really delicious. In spite of it being super busy, the service was good too.

Had breakfast here two days in a row, with Carla as a server. She's friendly and quick. The food is great, I recommend the Morning Meditation juice drink. The restaurant is clean, tables are well stocked with condiments, cream, sweeteners. They have a lot of healthy choices for breakfast. I really appreciated how quickly the food came out and the service Carla provided was attentive, allowing me to get in and out and to work on time. Thanks!
