    We had a really good time here. Our waiter was great; really friendly and funny. We went at around 10am weekday and service was really quick and not busy at all. The menu selection is great, the food was fresh and large portion sizes too. Atmosphere and deco was also really nice.

    The food and service here was so good my kids and I visited three times during our stay in Miami. Must trys include the French toast (both kinds) and the waffles. It gets quite crowded on weekends so go early. You won’t regret it.

    Visited the restaurant yesterday, was amazed by the quality of food, service was fast and server that was taking care of us, Carlos was very friendly and had all the knowledge about the food ( allergens, ingredients), patiently walked us through the menu and recommended the best item steak with fries, couldn't pick better. Definetly come back here again. Thanks to all staff and especially Matúš! The whole family had a great time!

    This place was close to our Airbnb and had great reviews so gave it a try. Was very impressed. Very welcoming and inviting atmosphere. Sat out on the patio which is beautiful. Friendly staff that answered all questions. Great selection. I had Eggs Benedict and was delicious. Everyone loved their food. Little wait for food but they were super busy so it probably say. Definitely recommend.

    One of my nieces took me here for brunch. We had tried one other time but it was very crowded, but this time we were able to make it!! I ordered the salmon Benedict and it was very, very good. My niece had an omelette with Swiss cheese and omelets! We also had pancakes, they are huge and very tasty!

    FYI, there are two locations of the exact same restaurant about a block away from each other. My reservation had one address and the website had another address. Neither of which and you were different. Of course the party I was meeting went to the other location. I have to say one of them is looking right out onto ocean with beautiful palm trees and the other one is looking right into another building The one with a better view very loud music on the outside, but I would vote that one.
