I reccomend calling ahead to reserve a seat as it can get pretty crowded and can have a line going out the door. We called ahead and got seated really quickly. The service was great, everyone was friendly. Our server was wonderful and gave us some tips on the area.Despite great service, the food was just okay. Everyone ordered something different and the portions do lean on the larger side. The food can range from good/okay to a bit bland. (I reccomend you skip the breakfast potatoes- the ketchup or hot sauce can't save them. I think you can substitute something else.) The food did come out quickly, but we noticed we arrived before the large crowds and we had a reservation.Overall the food was okay but way overpriced for the quality.

Beautiful outside patio! The breakfast food was amazing! I had the vegan breakfast bowl with eggs& cheese and it came with delicious sourdough bread! The coffee was yummy and they even got us to go cups!

Had a very pleasant meal with my girlfriend. Server did not check on us a single time except to bring out the food. We had to get our own boxes. When it came to paying our bill he was sure to stand over my shoulder in an attempt to intimidate me. I tipped him 10%, which is much lower than I normally would and quite frankly he didn’t deserve anything. He said then laughed loudly and said “only 6 dollars? Are you kidding me?”. We will not be back

Even though it seemed busy we got seated quickly. Food was great! Everyone loved their meals. The avocado toast was great, could share with another person the portion was big! Good

The quintessential place to get breakfast on Monterey Peninsula. Great way to start your morning before beach walk/aquarium!

The food was 4/5 stars and the service was 5/5! I give the Chicado sandwich a 7.5/10 because the chicken was more on the dryer side, but the flavor was great! I had caesar salad on the side which was beautifully drenched in dressing. If you're into that then it'll be perfect for you! My boyfriend had the Prime Dip. He gave it a 8/10 because the bread they used fit well with the sandwich. The meat was tender and the cheese was nicely melted into the sandwich. The french toast was 5/10. We thought the bread slices would be more on the thicker side, but it wasn't. It didn't lack in flavor so that kind of saved it. The service was great overall. The waiter was very attentive and accommodating! There was a small hiccup with the syrup, but it got quickly resolved. I could see why this place is always packed! If you guys wanna try this place out, just don't forget to put yourselves on the waitlist!

Excellent service and food. The spinach and mushroom eggs Benedict were delicious. Servings are huge, so opt for the half portion or share.

This is the first bad experience we've had here. Unfortunately, it makes me not want to come back. Staff was extremely rude and weren't communicating with each other. I understand being busy, but that doesn't excuse having an attitude and being rude to customers. This resulted in us leaving. I'm sad I won't be able to recommend this restaurant to people from now on.

Food came out in under ten minutes! Plenty of seating and great views. Had to wait for about an hour and a half to get in though. This place is hoppin!
