WeCare Salon Cafe — Restaurant in Virginia Beach

I am here on a Sunday, it’s 1:30pm and they ran out of all “produce” - no veggies, no fruits, no bacon, no grits. The only thing I could order was anything that has eggs, cheese, toast, waffles, or pancakes. So I could just be creative and asked for an egg, sausage and cheese omelet with toast. Far cry from either the shrimp & grits or spinach & mushroom omelet I had wanted to order! Now it’s not the staff’s or cook’s fault but this place is supposedly open until 6pm (per hours on Yelp) but I was told they close at 3pm; and they are out of almost all! I was even excited since I have dropped by a couple of times before and they were somehow closed on those days, even when Yelp hours show they’re open! This turns out to be a quick anecdote of redemption - an experience that could easily be disappointing turned out to be great after all. The ambiance is good. Bright and clean inside. There is counter seating and some cushioned bench seating against the front entrance windows; and ample seating for about 25 to 30 people. There are 3 TV monitors turned on, one showing sports, another music videos and the third seems to be National Geographic or some nature show. The redemption part comes in where the cook whipped up a wonderful omelet (not overcooked and dry). The toast quite simple if you think about it, but it was cooked perfectly - right about of toast with the right amount of butter. Some places would have either burnt the toast or put too much butter it becomes soggy. Oh and I need to tell you, the wait staff washed her hands every time she touched the plate - before serving and before taking the plate away…so much more health conscious and responsible than most restaurants where wait staff don’t wash their hands bringing food to the table, taking dirty plates away, cleaning the tables, putting things away… When it came time to pay, I was charged only $5 - for the inconvenience of not having all the ingredients for all their other menu items - now THAT is great...

I was looking for a breakfast spot that was kind of out of way, I didn't want to fight any crowds that morning. Being just down the street, I figured I'd try this place. The reviews were not bad. Had a taste for French Toast that day. It's a cafe so it naturally had limited seating. My wife and I were the only one's there upon arriving others arrived later, some take-out orders were being filled. I got to be honest, there was a just a bit of cigarette smoke in the air or at least it smelled like it. But upon the arrival of our entrees, we had adjusted. The portion and price ration seemed reasonable. Three BIG strips of bacon I think, one less and I would felt cheated. The waitress suggested cheese on my eggs, she read my mind. French toast was delicious but I've been spoiled by other spots with thicker slices. The waffle is tasty, cinnamon like flavor if I recall, the waitress offered powdered sugar-she read my wife's mind. Overall, I was satisfied. I would go back some day, try their omelettes next.

I'm appauled that this Cafe' has a 4 star rating when this deserves a 5 star all around. Let's see where do I start, there's wonderful customer service, the facility is comfty and clean, the prices are out of this world, and not to mention the delicious food made with authentic fresh ingredients. What more can you ask for? Go to a regular fast food restaurant you get fake, recycled, food and the food dont even measure up to the prices half the time. Let alone poor customer service sometimes. WeCare Salon Cafe' is the #1 restaurant to be! Would I mind traveling here again for some good food? The answer is no! WeCare Salon Cafe' has a...
