Came in expecting to find Portuguese pastries and galao (Portuguese latte). Instead encountered a fancy grill joint. Got a galao, and asked for 2 eggs with Taylor ham on a roll. Should have noticed there were no prices on the menu but I am seldom sticker shocked and will pay a premium for tasty food and overall experience. I will take my business to another local place or bagel joint. $10 for a standard breakfast sandwich with no side, packed in foil is unacceptable.

I ordered the short stack pancakes with a side of home fries and turkey bacon and she said it would take 15 minutes. When I arrived I parked nearby. I walked in and told the lady that I was there for a pick up and my name. She seemed to be rushed or overwhelmed. She said it would be $13.06 and I paid with my credit card and left. When I tried the food the pancakes were tasty, the home fries needed a little salt and the turkey bacon wasn't too bad. All in all I had an...
