Carlos was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, he was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. He made us feel comfortable right away and genuinely cared about our experience. The food was simply perfect — beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served just right. Everything exceeded our expectations. If you’re coming here, I highly recommend asking for Carlos. His positive energy and excellent service truly made our visit unforgettable. Highly recommended! 🙌

We went on a Friday afternoon at 1:30 in February. I had the Morbosos waffle sandwich. It was supposed to have had pesto mayo but it wasn't on the sandwich. It was tasty, but I should have asked for a side of the pesto mayo when I realized it was missing. My friend had a Croissant Carnitas and enjoyed it very much. Luckily they didn't run out of croissants, our server had to check with the kitchen to make sure because they had told him that they only had 2 croissants left, but fortunately she got lucky and was able to order her first choice menu item. Portions were very generous and we both took home half of our meals, as did several other people sitting nearby. Our server Angel was excellent. I would rate my sandwich 4 stars but my friend gave her order 5 stars and Angel was a 5 star server. Will definitely return and try a different menu item next time.

This restaurant is absolutely beautiful and the service was amazing. First, there was a long wait (Sunday brunch), and my partner has accessibility issues and walks on a cane. They pushed us up to the front and sat us immediately because they didn’t want her to stand to long. That was so kind of them, and they didn’t have to do that. Next, our server Angel was so sweet and gave us the best service. He greeted us with kindness, explained what we didn’t understand, and made sure we had everything we needed. The espresso martini and pistachio latte were to DIE for! The skirt streak was amazing with both of our meals. And they sung happy birthday to me! It was an amazing way to celebrate my birthday and if we ever come back to Miami, we’ll be back!

Paula was the best. She’s super kind & informative, she knows her stuff. I don’t know if you can request waitresses, but you’re going to be treated well, if you get her. I had an Ice Mocha Latte & Guava Creame Cheese Pancakes, eggs and sparkling water. Tasted wonderful! I went on a Tuesday morning & service was quick & fresh. Thanks Paula, girl. See you again, soon! XO 🩷

Sexy Juan was exceptional! Request him if you can! He gave great reviews and suggestions from the menu. Attentive and so much fun to interact with!The wait for a table on a Saturday was minimal (no more than 10 minutes). The food! OMG. 10's across the board. Everything was fresh and out of this world delicious! This is definitely a must do when in Miami! 1000/10

This breakfast spot in Miami easily deserves five stars. The menu offers an impressive range, blending classic American favorites with creative and globally inspired options. Portions are generous, especially the shareable plates, which make it perfect for brunching with a friend or enjoying a casual date. The coffee is excellent, and the food is both delicious and reasonably priced. Everything is thoughtfully prepared, and you’ll definitely leave feeling full and happy. A must-visit for anyone looking for a standout breakfast experience.

This place is amazing! My bf raved about this place and now I know why. It gives aesthetic, flavor and wonderful service. We had an amazing server, Angel, who made sure we had quick, great service and gave delicious suggestions for food and drinks. He also helped split our check for work purposes. I can’t wait to come back on our next trip. You gotta come here!

11/10 this place is a MUST visit! Beautiful chill decor inside, ambience is vibrant, super busy! The drinks are incredible, we got the pistachio latte and lavender latte both amazing. We got the Chicken and Shrimp Parmesan Wrap and the BLT Fried Chicken Sandwich on brioche! Massive portions! We also got the passion fruit and blueberry margaritas which were strong and perfect!

Joseph Santiago

The food and service here are exceptional! So many options to choose from, check the menu beforehand cause you have OPTIONS and may be overwhelmed with the selection. Everything we had was great! Portions are HUGE so come hungry!! Great atmosphere and service!! The rating they get is truly legit! Parking can be an issue, but if you find a place to park, your stomach will thank you for visiting Bistro Cafe in Downtown Miami.

Amazing restaurant! 12/10 and that’s from someone who can at times be a little……let’s say…..selective. Carlos our server was amazing! knowledgeable, gave the best recommendations and didn’t allow us to order too much food (even though intuitively he could allow us to because it means more of a tip…character is important). I want to keep this restaurant a secret because the food is so good! We got the lobster Benedict, the steak bowl and a stack of pancakes. Everything was amazing….we also got the sangria mimosa? FIRE! From top to bottom….this is a great place to eat

Andrey was our server. He was very kind and service was amazing. Food representation and taste was wonderful. The restaurant is beautiful and the atmosphere is cozy. Overall great experience! Definitely recommend! Iced lavender coffee really good too!

Best Breakfast place in town! Oatmeal is delicious and different than any other I tried before. The omelets and pancakes are great. They also have great baristas. I go there at least once at month, very busy and sometimes you have to be patient with a big line.

Juan was absolutely wonderful and so welcoming, which made the entire experience even better!! I ordered the Huevos Enojados with extra cheese on top, a recommendation from Juan, and it was delicious from start to finish. The portion sizes were amazing and definitely great value for the quality. There’s also an on-site photographer, and we were able to have our picture taken and framed, which made the experience even more memorable and fun. You can truly tell how much care goes into both the service and the food. I’ll absolutely be coming back and recommending this place to others. Thank you again, Juan!

Excellent Food & Exceptional service We had a great experience here. We ordered the French toast, blueberry pancakes, steak and chicken tacos, cheese croissants, and iced mocha. Everything was delicious! The chicken was fresh, and the steak was cooked to perfection. The portions are very generous and were more than enough for our group of seven. Special thanks to Enjo for taking such great care of me and my family. He was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and proactive in giving us excellent recommendations. He truly made our visit special. Highly recommended

Absolutely loved Bistro Cafe in Miami. Everything we tried was amazing. I ordered the pistachio latte and wow. The presentation, the flavor, the balance, everything about it was perfect. We also tried the s’mores latte and the crème brûlée cappuccino, and both were incredibly unique and delicious, easily some of the most creative coffee drinks I’ve had. The cafe itself is very spacious and comfortable, the service was great, and the attention to presentation really makes the experience feel special. If you’re looking for high-quality coffee, unique drinks, and a beautiful atmosphere, this place is a must-visit.

By far some of the tastiest food I've had in awhile!! Everything was delicious!! Super flavorful and the portion sizes are really generous! Our server was awesome!! For 5 people the bill was around $235 WITH the gratuity included and I would GLADLY pay it again because the food was THAT GOOD!!!! Even my teenagers approved!! You must EAT HERE!!

We were a table of 6 on a layover in Miami and someone we knew recommended this place to us. Each of us agreed this was the BEST food, drinks, and service we have ever had!!! Huge portions, great flavor and quality. We absolutely LOVED our server, Nicole “Niki”, so much that I asked her for a hug at the end of our meal lol, she was so professional yet she was fun and made us feel comfortable and welcomed. She was incredible and even taught us a little Spanish. She knew every item on the menu, which surprised us because the menu was so extensive, and she happily helped each of us decide on what to order. It was a hard choice; everything sounded so good!!! I decided on the fried chicken caprese sandwich and mango margarita. Wow. We were SO impressed with everything here from beginning to end. Our food came so quickly even though the restaurant was packed. The only problem… is we live in California and can’t eat here more often. But I will be back one day!!! Thanks again.

We had an absolutely fantastic dining experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and relaxed—perfect for enjoying a great meal without feeling rushed. The space was clean, cozy, and had that charming neighborhood café vibe that immediately makes you feel comfortable. The food was outstanding. We ordered the Trifongo, which was packed with rich, authentic flavors and perfectly prepared. We also had the chicken and waffles, and it did not disappoint at all. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and well-seasoned, while the waffles were light, fluffy, and complemented the dish beautifully. What truly elevated the experience was our waitress ( can’t remember her name), She was incredibly attentive, patient, and very detailed when explaining the menu. Her descriptions made it easy to decide what to order, and she took the time to answer questions without making us feel rushed. That level of service really stood out and added a personal touch to the meal. Overall, Bistro Cafe exceeded our expectations in every way—delicious food, great service, and a pleasant atmosphere. We would give a 10 star recommendation. Whether you’re stopping by for brunch or a casual meal, this place is definitely worth visiting. We’ll absolutely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great spot in Miami! Street parking is available but can be hard to find. We also went on a Monday, but I believe it does get extremely busy on the weekends.

Carlos MORALES was so friendly and show us the interactive menu with photos and videos and brought to us the most delicious food prepared seemingly with love. Definitely will come again and highly recommend!

Bistro café was a great place to have brunch. We went there on a Saturday and it was packed. There was a big line but we only waited around 15 minutes. Our waitress was very helpful and nice given the menu was so long. They have PLENTY of options including breakfast brunch lunch. We ordered steak brunch stuff and it was great food. The restaurant inside is nice and good music. Highly recommend and will go back

The food is always good. Be prepared for a large menu, but everything in it is amazing! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and suggested foods that fit our individual pallets.

Food was absolutely amazing, definitely worth the money! My server Andrey was very nice and a vibe❤️. The service is amazing, the atmosphere is welcoming. Definitely will be coming back.

Great experience, very delicious food. We enjoyed the vibes, Our order was Vegeterian omlet with Avocado, and omlet with pastrami and tomatoes, both were delicious. From dessert we ordered Pan cakes with cream and blue berries and it was very delicious as well. I will surly repeat this experience again.

Thank you Carlos for helping us understand the menu. My food was very good. My husband steak omelet was seasoned to Perfection!

Juan was amazing with recommendations ! and food was delicious . we got seated pretty fast and enjoyed everything.

Roberto was very helpful and so attentive to our table with his great service. Food has an excellent taste and the portions are impressive (like REALLY). I had a great time here and will definitely come back again, they are busy weekend so best time to come would be anytime before 11am so you won’t need to wait in the waitlist as they don’t take reservations.

The food was amazing, great flavors, authentic ingredients, and the service was impeccable! Andrey was our server for the afternoon, and he was incredibly kind and attentive, and certainly made our experience the 5 star rating to be exemplified! I will certainly return again.

Definitely a place I’d come back to and recommend to anyone looking for great food and a solid overall vibe. Our waitress, Gretel, was incredible as well.

Seating was quick- customer service (Ashiel) was impeccable. Oh my gosh the food was amazing- the portions was incredible! I would visit and recommend

Andrey was so attentive and amazing! This is some of the best food we have had in a long time! Food was fast hot and humongous!!! Thank you Andrey for making our first time great!

Everything was amazing! The food was creative, delicious, and rich! Our server Carlos Morales was awesome! Being first time customers he definitely helped with exploring our options.

Paula was our server at the bistro Café downtown Miami. The service was absolutely superb. The food was amazing oversize plates enough for sharing. Everything was hot. Everything was fresh. It was definitely an experience and we will definitely be back and I will tell everyone I know to try out the bistro Café downtown Miami.

ANGEL IS THE BEST!! Food was amazing his service was amazing. Very nice . Everything was a 10/10 literally

This place truly made our day. One of the best lunches I’ve had in a long time! We loved it so much that we visited two days in a row during my trip. It’s honestly even better than you could imagine.

From the hostess to the waiter everyone was super pleasant. Drinks came out fairly quickly but food takes a while...each plate is a work of art and it's worth the wait. Portions are very generous and delicious!! Worth the trip!

Carlos made sure we had a wonderful experience! The gaucho omelette was delicious, and the pancakes were absolutely amazing. The latte was perfectly made, but the real star of the morning was the passion fruit mimosa, it was excellent!

It can be tough to find really good food spots in Miami, but while visiting I came across this gem. The food was flavorful and savory, and even though I’m not usually a big brunch fan, their menu had so many great options. The service was excellent, we were seated quickly, and our server Carlos Morales did a fantastic job explaining the menu and making the whole experience enjoyable. I tried the lomo saltado salad, which was both filling and delicious, and the spicy mango margarita was amazing. They also offer a nice variety of wraps, sandwiches, and drinks. Everything was so good that I’m seriously considering stopping by one more time before I leave Miami.

Food was absolutely amazing, never disappoints! Andrey was great and super kind. 10/10 recommend. Will be coming back to this location for sure!

This place was very nice. Staff was attentive, pleasant, and extremely sweet and helpful. Food for me was a 10/10. When visiting Miami I would for sure go again. I got the pastrami burrito with a iced Caramel latte.

Andrey was very sweet and informed, he was able to tell us about the menu and was very patient with us as well. The food was delicious and worth the price as well, I recommend the BLT fried chicken

Food is really delicious and portion size is very very generous!!! We ordered one dish per person and was only able to finish half 😂 we also loved our server Andrey🥰 My favorite was pistachio latte

Mocha s’mores is great whether you get it hot or cold. Dubai chocolate pancakes and waffles were top-notch. The iced pistachio latte was also great. Pastrami sandwich was amazing and the crispy potatoes were great. Props to Mateo for his amazing service. Will come here again!!! Definitely recommend this place for a top notch breakfast and maybe lunch.

What an amazing place!! The environment was welcoming and Jelly was our server and she helped us as soon as we walked in the door. Definitely request her if come her. She recommends the best drinks and foods and even shows pictures so you know what you’re getting overall I would not only come back because the food was good but come back because of Jelly’s server I will alway request her!! Amazing

Dining here was a 5-star experience, hands down. The skirt steak and french toast were both absolutely delicious—cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Our server, Ashlei, made the evening even better with her friendly and attentive service. She was fantastic and made sure we had everything we needed.

Andrey was amazing his service was top tier! The money was well worth being spent here me and my boyfriend enjoyed it!

One of the best places I’ve been too. Juan our server was very funny and knowledgeable about all the food options. Highly recommend!

Breakfast was amazing but what really stood out was the service from Nicole. She went above and beyond to make us feel at home and was incredibly knowledgeable

We had Juan, he was the BEST !!! Would definitely come back and have him do our service. Everything was amazing from his friendly greeting and during our breakfast. He made it better than expected, would definitely come back.

The food was amazing and delicious and your server was amazing for Like. She ate it up. Her name is Nicky. Keep her she soo amazing she made sure we was good every time

Unexpected fair price for the area along with flavory and huge servings! Service was really attentive, Diego was very professional! Avoid weekends or expect long lines

Excellent place for breakfast or brunch. Food is delicious, a lot of different plates and good portion. Recommended 100%

Let’s start with the service: our host Ángel was very kind and welcoming, making sure we got the best spot. Our server Guido was extremely attentive, accommodating, and mindful of every detail at our table. The coffee was spectacular, and the dishes were delicious. I highly recommend the Bistro Breakfast (fried eggs, bacon, and waffles that are soft inside and crisp outside, served with Nutella and fresh fruit) and the oatmeal is exquisite. Thank you for the experience!

Food was amazing! Portions are pretty big. A lot of protein choices. Even with a big menu and a lot of options, Roberto made it easy and perfectly suggested what we were looking for. Would definitely recommend and come back!

Great spot for brunch with interesting drinks and a rich, creative menu. The coffee is delicious and worth the visit on its own. It does get crowded on Sundays, so expect some waiting time, but the overall experience is fun and flavorful. A solid choice for a weekend brunch.

She was really nice helped us with everything asked us if we need anything else giving us recommendations and telling us about the place we love her beautiful and awesome girl!

The atmosphere is very nice, clean, and the staff is very warm and friendly. The coffee is DELICIOUS very fresh. They have cute coffee drinks as well but we got regular American coffee. The food is FRESH, like from a farm. We ordered the steak omelette, French toast, scrambled egg bacon and pancakes. The eggs didn’t have flavor and we added salt and pepper. The fruit was fresh. The pancakes and French toast were extremely dry. I would come here again for the drinks, regular scrambled egg and bacon. Oh and it was a bit expensive. Eggs bacon pancakes coffee fruits for almost $30

Juan was absolutely incredible! From the moment we sat down, he greeted us with the warmest smile and made us feel right at home. His attention to detail, patience, and genuine kindness made the whole dining experience unforgettable. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, gave thoughtful recommendations, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. You can tell he truly cares about his guests. Thank you, Juan, for making our brunch so special you’re a gem!

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant, and a big part of that was thanks to our server, Paula. She was friendly, attentive, and very professional from the moment we sat down. She made sure our drinks were always full, checked on us at the right times, and gave great menu recommendations. Paula’s positive attitude and genuine kindness really made our visit more enjoyable. It’s clear she cares about providing great service and making guests feel welcome. I would definitely come back again, and I hope to be served by her in the future. Highly recommended

Bistro Café was worth the wait! Once we were seated, our server, Eva, was patient, answered all our questions, and articulated everything on the menu beautifully. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly presented. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

10/10 recommend. Paula was my server, she was very kind and attentive. I never had to ask for anything because she was on it! I got a mimosa mojito as a drink, and it was great. Food is excellent as well. If you’re wondering if you should go here, go and ask for Paula!

Andrey has the best service he’s super fast and oh my gosh everything was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend and I’m definitely coming back.

Delicious food and coffee ✨️ Was worried about getting carnitas and steak in the omelets, but the taste was very good! Servers were nice and helpful as well.

I highly recommend going here! When I tell you they did not miss on service, the food, the potions, and cleanliness, trust me it’s a 10. I loved every bite.

Andre very professional respectful he explained everything thoroughly salute to him. Can’t wait to come back and eat here again.Drink were good food was everything😊🩵

Service was AHHHMAZING!! Juan was an excellent server! The food is top tier! We literally got off the plane and headed straight to the Bistro!

I had a great time here!! Angel was so helpful and made our experience fantastic! Food was 20/10!!! I tried their Miami location but now I must visit their PR location!

While chatting it up in with a nice gentleman associate at the men's LV store in the design district this place was recommended. We weren't planning on anything being before boarding our cruise but I'm sure glad we came here. Everyone was super nice and friendly. The atmosphere is great and the food and drinks are amazing. We both loved our coffees and really enjoyed our breakfast as well. This should be on everyone's list of places to go for breakfast or brunch!!

Gretel made my birthday extra special today. The service was great and the atmosphere was welcoming. The portions of food is amazing !

We had such a wonderful experience at Bistro Cafe! My husband and I were served by Juan, and he was absolutely amazing. The presentation of the food was beautiful. Most importantly, everything tasted incredible! I loved the caramel hot latte and steak eggs Benedict. Highly recommend! We truly enjoyed every detail, and especially Juan’s service!

Amazing food!! Now I see why they say no sending back to kitchen cause the food was huge! But not only was it big, it was very delicious seasoned! I came with my sister to celebrate my graduation and it was amazing experience. They had fans outside so it wasn’t too hot while eating. Our server was Paula and she was amazing. She was very nice and friendly and explained the food to us. She didn’t have any awkward small talk and I loved discussing our cats with her. She was so good we added extra tip! Amazing woman! And there was a photographer who took our pictures and printed them so fast and even put it in a frame! My sister said she found the restaurant on tiktok and she agrees 10/10 experiences. Wish there wasn’t so many flies but even the flies want the amazing food! I loved it! And I would 1000% come back with a friend.

I have to say, from the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. I loved the vibe and the atmosphere it has. The crew is very friendly and the food is amazing. Get yourself a Cappuccino and add a little bit of splendar! You will thank me later.

This was my first time here and I’m all the way from New York and I must say that this was a 100/10 experience! Our server Angel was tremendous with his service, guiding us with the right choices and VERY attentive! I would be back here again soon and thank you Angel for an unforgettable experience.

Andre was amazing and very knowledgeable of the menu. Ensured order was correct and when food arrived ensured everything was to my liking. Very sweet personality and I enjoyed the atmosphere. 10/10

⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service by Adrey at Bistro Café I had the pleasure of being served by Adrey, and I must say his service was truly exceptional. From the moment I sat down, he greeted me with a warm smile, genuine hospitality, and a level of professionalism that immediately elevated the experience. Adrey is attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and incredibly quick with service. His positive energy and friendly attitude made breakfast not just a meal—but a memorable moment. Every detail was handled with care, from the way he anticipated needs to the way he ensured everything was perfect at the table. Employees like Adrey represent the true spirit of hospitality. His dedication, respect for guests, and passion for what he does truly set him apart. I highly recommend starting your morning at Bistro Café and asking for Adrey—you will receive nothing short of 5-star service. Thank you, Adrey, for making breakfast exceptional. Your excellence makes a difference!

This is a 5 star breakfast spot in Miami. The food was phenomenal and very reasonably priced! Ashlei was our server and she was fantastic. Very friendly and explained the menu well for a first timer!!! $15 for 2 mimosas this day! Very cute spot.

Fran N

We had a wonderful experience thanks to our waiter, Carlos! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. Carlos had great recommendations from the menu and checked in just the right amount — not too much, not too little. His warm attitude really made my birthday special.

Alexis James

Morales’ service was immaculate; very friendly and knowledgeable! The food deserves 5 stars across the board from the taste, presentation, and timeliness. I would recommend Bistro Cafe and will definitely be back when I return to Miami.

Medgine Merilus

Food is amazing. Depending on the time you go and your group there will be a wait time. But it is definitely worth it. The portions are big. I wasn’t able to finish my food and took it to go. Everything is so good even the drinks. If it’s coffee or mimosas it’s made to perfection. Not only that but the service is beautiful. I had the pleasure of having Paula, not sure if I’m spelling the name correctly, she is very sweet. Makes sure to answer any questions and was there to help with anything you needed. Definitely would recommend and will be back.

Ran up on this place by accident, we were trying to visit Miami Slice, saw the long line and decided to investigate and what we found was some of the best food service and atmosphere you can find in Miami. (Angel the host was on the job, thanks for looking out for me and my lady) he got us in as soon as we hit the door🫡. The food was 5 star and served quickly as they stayed busy the entire time we were there. Our waiter was also on top of thing and I wish I could remember his name but he was outstanding. We will definitely be back in the future loved everything about this place. 20 for Angel as a Ty 20 for the waiter as a Ty and $65 for our food. All well worth it.

There’s a lot of food. The food looks amazing, very pretty. The avocado toast with shrimp was delicious. The Expresso martini was delicious the latte was pretty.

It's really 4.5 stars. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because the bathrooms didn't have paper towels (air dryers are gross, please get rid of them) and the check had gratuity automatically added even though it was only 3 of us which is weird where I'm from. Other than that, Paula was a great server! Very sweet and timely. Food was amazing and fantastic portions! Menu had a ton of choices and the coffee and lemonade drinks were delicious too. Thank you so much!

What a wonderful start to the day. Stopped in for breakfast on our first day of vacation and were not disappointed. They had hearty helpings of delicious food, prompt service and a pleasant atmosphere. Definitely recommend it.

We visited Bistro Cafe in Miami with high expectations, but unfortunately, they fell short. The food was well presented but lacked flavor. The prices were also quite high. The service was somewhat poor due to the busy atmosphere. I’ll definitely give them another chance in the future, but I’ll make sure to choose a different time.

When we arrived, there was a short waiting list—we were number five—but the line moved quickly, and we were seated within about five minutes. Unfortunately, things went downhill after that. We waited over an hour for our food, and by 5:24 (well past closing time), we were still waiting. Several guests even left without being served. Service was slow overall—our waitress took our drink orders but didn’t come back for quite a while to take our food order, and we had to request someone to come over. For drinks, I started with the strawberry kiwi mimosa, which I didn’t enjoy (not enough strawberry flavor). When I asked for something else, I was told the policy was to first “fix” the drink before offering a replacement. They adjusted it, and it was a little better, so I kept it. Later, I noticed another table had the cotton candy Mojito Moscato—which would have been a perfect choice for me since I prefer sweet drinks. I wish that had been recommended first. For food, I ordered the trifongo with chicken. The mofongo itself was excellent—flavorful and perfectly prepared—but the chicken was unfortunately overcooked. With better execution, this could’ve been an amazing dish. Overall, the food delays, slow service, and drink experience made the visit frustrating. Still, I would consider returning in the future to try the cotton candy Mojito Moscato and hopefully get a better-prepared meal.

My recent lunch experience at Bistro Café was a mix of highs and lows. While the food was delicious and the ambiance was great, a few significant issues with parking and service detracted from the overall visit. The first challenge began before I even got to the restaurant. The parking situation is quite difficult; I had to park two blocks away and wasn't even sure if I was in a legal spot. Once inside, however, the atmosphere was a pleasant surprise. The bistro is aesthetically pleasing and offers both comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, giving it a great, welcoming feel. For my meal, I ordered the fried chicken BLT with avocado, which came with a side of fries. The food itself was a major highlight. The sandwich was absolutely delicious, and the portion size was massive—easily shareable. At roughly $30, it's a generous amount of food that could be a meal for two people. Unfortunately, the service was subpar. Our waiter was "missing in action" for the duration of our meal, and we had to go without napkins. The only time he appeared was when we asked for the bill. It's also important to note that a mandatory gratuity is added to your bill, regardless of your party's size. This is a crucial detail to remember before you add an extra tip. Overall, while the food was great and the restaurant has a nice vibe, the poor service and difficult parking made for a less-than-ideal experience. It wasn't the worst lunch, but it certainly wasn't the best.
