    Amazing food, first of all. The service was good, the staff was very attentive to all patrons and it wasn't one individual person, the entire staff is there to help. The menu is a great assortment of various breakfast items with many of them being signature dishes. My table ordered the Chicken Marsala, the Reuben sandwich, Loaded Fries, Short Rib Hash and a single pancake. The Chicken Marsala was juicy and the marsala sauce and mushrooms were just so tasty and perfect and it was paired with some DELICIOUS potatoes and asparagus. If you are a Chicken Marsala fan, I would highly recommend this!! The Reuben sandwich was just delicious. The amount of Corned Beef in the sandwich was enormous and the servings size is HUGE, paired with some of the best crispy fries I've had, next to of course their LOADED Fries! The same crispy fries but now just with their white cheddar sauce and chunks of bacon, that was the HIT at our table!! Lastly was the Short Rib Hash, the potatoes again were amazing and the tender juicy chunks of Beef Short Rib were just everywhere in that bowl, and all topped off with a fried egg!! This place is great, the vibe is calming and not loud, perfect breakfast spot to just meet up, enjoy a meal and have a great conversation without having to battle all the other conversations that other restaurants deal with. This is just a great place!!

    The spinach and mushroom eggs benedict were terrific and the hollandaise sauce was light. Our service was great and they modified my dish with scrambled eggs as I requested; thank you !

    Everything was great and it looks like I may have ordered wrong. However, my grilled chicken sandwich had such little goat cheese on it that nothing stuck, including the lettuce and tomatoes. It was a small piece of chicken with a very large ciabatta roll. The fries were fantastic, but overall a mediocre sandwich for $17.

    Alonzo was our server and he was exceptional. Hamburger great. Strawberry French toast great. GF pancakes just ok. I’ve had much better at Swamis. Bacon awesome crisp and plenty of it. Over easy eggs perfectly. Margaritas hit the spot. We went there on a Wednesday and we seated right away. The decor is first rate. We will definitely go there again. Cindy B

    Nice place; first time we’ve been. Food was slow to arrive; I think there was a bit of a kitchen meltdown happening. Nicely presented; French toast was quite good. Server was good; friendly and apologized for the delay. Worth trying again.

    2.5 rating. Nice to be able to book through open table. That's the only really the best part of our experience. We ordered: Rueben sandwich, Herb, mushroom & goat cheese omelette, and Goat cheese & chicken sandwich. Also two orange juices. Table of 3 for $70 (because we paid with a credit card but without the CC $67.43). Other than my husband's Reuben which he said was good, the food was marginal at best. The goat cheese chicken sandwich had a thin swipe of some kind of goat cheese spread on each side of the bread. The fries were, forgive me, kind of greasy and like they had been waiting or reheated. The herb, mushroom & goat cheese omelette was not good at all. No herbs, no seasoning, a smidge of goat cheese and a very well done omelette. And the potatoes and roasted vegetables had no seasoning and like they were cooked in a pan that had something else in it. It's hard to place. It just was not good at all. Decent bread though but all of it was priced $18 for something that was sub par. For their prices their food should be MUCH better. Our waiter never once asked, "how is your food?" "Was everything ok?" Poor service except for the nice host when we arrived. Note, I left a review on yelp and the management replied the same day with, "Don’t let this spoil your beautiful Sunday Brunch. Solana beach offers so many other restaurants that would be a better fit for you and ur family. -Sorry we didn’t meet ur expectations." I shared feedback because I commend GREAT places and also note those who need some help. This is a quaint, little breakfast place and all could be easily remedied with proper training in the kitchen (consistency of their food) and the service (wait staff should always ask their customers - how was it?) Every employee who works in a restaurant represents it and management should want to hear praise when deserved, as well a critique so they can improve.
