Amani was a superstar, she is a wealth of good energy, warm hospitality and kindness. She strives to make her customers happy and ensures that she makes their experience complete. What a joy to have gotten to know Amani! I’ll be back for the Baklava latte, the ambiance and Amani’s good energy.

I hesitate to write this review because then the wait will be even longer but there's a reason there is a wait, it is worth it so make sure if you're visiting Beacon you definitely go here. Each plate that comes out is done with such care and skill and pride. There were 4 adults and a teen in my party and everyone loved their food and that never happens. Everything was delicious. A must try!

My mother and I enjoyed a lovely breakfast here the other day. She opted for the fluffy pancakes and I had an omelette - the portion sizes were great which is always appreciated and the atmosphere was pretty laid back (Thursday morning). I look forward to coming back and enjoying another meal in the very near future. Highly recommend if you're in/around Beacon.

This place has such a quaint feel and setting. Not common to find a place that isn't a mediocre diner that offers breakfast/brunch items all day long, especially for dinner. Their loaded tots are great, and worth having with every meal. The place is fairly small and when fully booked inside, food may take a little longer to come out- but it's absolutely worth waiting for fresh breakfast for dinner!

Nice little place with good ambience and great food. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and while we were there they only played 90s hip-hop; classics all over the place! They were out of 2 dishes on their menu, which means 1/4 of the menu was unavailable. The seared scallops were delicious but there were only 4 scallops. For $18 there should at least be a couple more. General Tso's chicken and waffles is the best chicken and waffles I've ever had.

Such a cute little cafe that you are able to eat in or take out. The menu has a great menu for various diets. There seems to be something for everyone. We ordered thereat and butter board that came with different types of breads and butters. Omg?! The brioche bread was so fluffy and dense. The grained bread was also delicious. I didn't taste the sourdough but I am sure it was incredible. The MAPLE BUTTER was perfect. It had the perfect amount of maple that was not overpowering - very well balanced. The everything but the bagel butter was also really good. The salted was a great classic. I also ordered the BLTA which was divine. The bacon had a hot honey coated which was such a nice touch. It came with seasoned fries which I normally don't love but I enjoyed them. We got orange juice that was clearly straight from the orange! Someone at the table to get a side of sausage patties which you can tell were hand made and they were not too salty! The only con was that we had to ask to order because it was taking a long time. Overall, I would go back and recommend to anyone looking for a great place to eat in Beacon!

Breakfast sandwich was really good.. but $11 for a sausage egg and cheese sandwich is way too pricey and why I give it a 3 star. Place was super crowded also.

I was going to give this place a lower rating but after reading the owner's responses to the negative reviews, I increased it because of the entertainment. Strawberry Cannoli Griddles were deceivingly not good. The presentation as it came to our table was flawless and beautiful. Everyone at our table were gasping at how good it looked but when I took a bite, the flavor and texture were off-- I did enjoy that it wasn't overly sweet though. Chicken and waffle: waffle texture and flavor were the same as the pancakes. Chicken seemed to be the same as the one from my Bang Bang Chicken Bang Bang Chicken: the chicken was wayy too over-fried. It was still good once I got to the thicker part and I enjoyed the rest of my burger after that but the initial few bites were disappointing. Fries are good!! I loved the Baklava Iced Latte. It was delicious. We did not notice the flavor of Baklava though, and it tasted like a regular Iced Latte but nonetheless, it was probably my favorite item that we got. Overall, a pretty average restaurant. The food is incredibly mid but I wasn't expecting much in the first place. Staff are friendly and I love the atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming back to support

Stopped in for a late lunch. Ordered the Falafel Burger and the Tofu Scramble. Both were very good. The service was prompt and friendly.

Food was good but a bit pricey. Service was good, nice atmosphere. Bloody Mary was not good. Small glass too much Worcestershire or something but it was over seasoned. Other than that it was a good experience. I will be back.

Cute enough atomsphere; truly great sourdough. But they serve up the most favorless tofu scramble I've evet tasted. Do not buy. Their chef clearly doesnt eat tofu; and thus doesnt realize/respect that true basics like coconut aminos, spicesssss, boullion, tomates, etc, liven a tofu dish right up—and at almost 20 bucks? Wut?!?

My husband and I came here for brunch and were told we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table, which was fine. But while waiting, I went to use the bathroom and it was absolutely disgusting. It was filthy so bad it felt like a grimy Bronx club bathroom, not a restaurant that serves food. I was so grossed out that I immediately told my husband we were not eating here and we left. If the bathroom is in that condition, I can’t even imagine what the kitchen looks like. Completely ruined the experience before it even started. Cleanliness is non negotiable.

I really wanted to enjoy this place, especially after seeing all the glowing reviews, but unfortunately, my experience fell short. I ordered the scrambled tofu, which looked great on the plate, but the flavor just wasn’t there. It had an overwhelming amount of powdered turmeric sprinkled on top, not cooked into the dish, so it tasted raw and bitter. I tried adding salt, then hot sauce, but nothing could save it. My guest ordered the French toast with a side of bacon. The French toast looked beautiful but had an odd aftertaste that neither of us could quite place. It wasn’t terrible, just… different. The bacon, though, was a surprise, not in a good way. Instead of a small side, we were served what felt like an entire pack of bacon. No heads up from the waiter, no warning that it was meant for multiple people. My guest was overwhelmed, and I don’t eat bacon, so it ended up mostly untouched. With the prices being what they are, I walked away feeling like I didn’t get my money’s worth. Maybe it was just an off day, or maybe certain dishes shine more than others. Either way, this one was a miss for me. You live and learn!
