On our 4th (&, yes, our 5th too - cuz, yum) morning in town, we wandered in after having searched high & low for a good late breakfast spot close to our hotel (Omni)
Located in a strip mall, with ample free parking, we found this little gem. There was a 20% off check-in offer that convinced us to give them a shot.
On entry, we were asked if we'd been in before & given process instructions. Easy enough: take menus, sit and pick, return to the counter to order & pay, take your table number & sit back down. Your food comes out, you eat, clear your table & exit.
Service was fast, staff are friendly & in excellent spirits - no grumpy people either day. Bonus for remembering us on our return. Prices were reasonable for quality. Prettiest "fast casual" plating I've ever seen.
Day 1: Big Breakfast Burrito, Cubano Quesadilla, 3pc Dippy Ds, Bacon Bloody & Blood Orange Sunrise Day2: skipped the Burrito and Bloody - not because either were bad, just the 13hr drive ahead meant no over-undulging food comas or drowzie booze drinks
Drinks were both fantastic twists on their namesakes. The pork, tender & juicy - nothing was salted with heavy hands - as is too often the case. There was just enough seasoning to accent the main dishes & let the natural flavors sing. Those dippys are already on my cravings radar: fluffy, fried light- not at all heavy or oily & 3 fab dips!
They initially forgot the drinks on our visit, then refunded them for the delay. This wasn't necessary but was appreciated. I mean, we did come back the next day, the best way I know to show our appreciation.
5/5 on everything - seriously, everything! Already bookmarked for "next time" Ohhh & the Candied...

Read morePROS: The food is REALLY good. I've tried the breakfast burrito with both bacon and shredded pork. Both variations were delicious. The pork was tender and flavorful. The bacon was crispy and delicious (and I do like crispy bacon in my breakfast burritos). The green chili was flavorful (a lot of places have mediocre green chili, but this was pretty good). The service was good and several of the folks who worked there were SUPER friendly, which was awesome. Finally, the ambiance was nice and the pricing reasonable.
CONS: Even when you eat there (and they do offer full wait service), they use to-go disposable dinnerware (think plastic forks and such). I feel this cheapens the dining experience. Also harder to cut pieces of meat and such. Not the end of the world (and this might be a temporary thing they're doing during COVID/labor shortage), but it is why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 stars.
OTHER THOUGHTS: Their menu isn't very large, although I don't see this as an issue, since a smaller menu means it's easier for them to offer the highest quality by focusing on a few truly great dishes. I actually find that restaurants that offer a vast menu often struggle with offering the best food given the sheer breadth...
