This was a wonderful and pleasant experience. The food is on a whole other level! The Prosciutto & Burrata was fresh. The meat's saltiness was just enough and paired perfectly with a super fresh and delicious argula pesto...fantastic! The chamomile French toast was absolutely an indulge eat! The French cream paired with it was delectable as well! The pastry was so yummy. You can tell this food is prepared fresh and with ❤️.

Great service great food, beautiful atmosphere. What more could I want?! from the first initial contact which was calling to find out about their wait time, the hostess was so kind and personable, and even allowed us to put our name on the list before we arrived. I knew this place was gonna be good upon arriving. The waitress was just as kind and great as the hostess and then to top it off with amazing food. I am so happy I found this place.

While visiting family we stopped in for Sunday breakfast. The food was so fresh and cooked to perfection. Scrambled eggs at restaurants typically are over done and rubbery. These were the best egg I’ve ever had eating out. We shared scones for the table which were full of flavor. Everything at our table was perfect not one complaint. Annie our server was so sweet and helpful. In addition they accommodated our large group of 12 in a very comfortable spot. What a great place!

Ate the avocado toast and it was delicious! Just would have gone a little lighter on the chili oil as it made it super messy to eat. But taste was 10/10. Had a green tea and that was refreshing as well.

Aesthetic elevated coffee shop that feels more like a fancy brunch spot. The food was delicious. Limited options but good food. Service was very friendly. Even though they were busy they didn’t appear bothered with us taking our time to decide what to order. I wasn’t a big fan of the sparkling matcha. It wasn’t that sweet even with added sweetener. My girlfriend loved it though. The eggs and potatoes were delicious after a 13 mile run. Great carbs. Sparkling matcha w/ mint + sweetener: 4/5 Gibraltar w/ oatmilk and lavender: 4.5/5 Cornbread + Crab Benedict: 4/5 Eggs w/ Potatoes (minus bacon): 4.5/5

Must go in Riverside! Best coffee in town and they always have an exciting lineup of food options.

This is my go-to place for breakfast or lunch. Consistently delicious food and customer service. Nice atmosphere inside and just be prepared to wait in the mornings. I usually order mine through the website and pick it up in person. Their potatoes are made from heaven (drool) and the Cheeseburger is THE BEST tasting burger - and I don't eat a lot of Cheeseburgers I try to limit myself to only 2-3 per year but Gosh Dang it! I think I might have had 3 from here already. Be sure to check for ketchup before you leave if you like it on your potatoes... it doesn't come automatically. Also honorable mention for the Earl Grey Iced Tea magnifico! Respectfully Reviewed

This is a great place for coffee, lunch or a pastry. Calm during the week midday so you can get some “work” done. and lively for Saturday brunch. They have both sweet and savory scones in addition to French toast and a deconstructed yogurt parfait which is top-notch.

Excellent food, good coffee, great service. Highly recommend the Turkish eggs and the patty melt.

Update: I stopped by for lunch and ordered the veggie sandwich. It was absolutely amazing! It was big enough to share if you wanted to. I also ordered the peach tea which was very good. They have coffee on tap! I went in the other day and ordered the seasonal iced coffee which was maple with oat-milk. It was so good I went back today. This time I got the oat-milk with agave. Great flavor! Since it is on tap it was served quickly. Also gave me a good energy boost!

Delicious and stylish. Loved my prosciutto and burrata tartine, if you eat meat and cheese - go for it, you won’t regret it! My friend enjoyed her veggie sandwich as well. Coffees were great too. This location has so much seating and great atmosphere. Will definitely come again.

So good! Needed to grab something to eat before a study session and this place did not disappoint. I ordered the breakfast plate with salsa and an iced vanilla latte. The food and coffee is so delicious and the workers were very attentive and nice. I will definitely be back :)

From the host, to the cashier at the coffee bar ,to our waitressAnnie! Amazing service! Annie was such a bright soul and you can tell she truly cares about providing the best service and making sure you are taken care of 💕 3 of us went on new years day. Thankfully arcade was open!

Ebin and Ryden were so kind to correct a drink that wasn’t my thing. They made sure to treat me with kindness and I’m understanding about my hesitancy about returning a drink that didn’t taste right. I appreciate them immensely! Great job hiring them. They are also super personable!

We were there on a Wednesday morning and the café was busy with music blaring on the speakers. Our intention was to do some work, but it was a bit difficult given lack of ample space and the ambiance. Good establishment to enjoy a chat though! Drinks and food were pretty, but lacked depth of flavor. And order for a coffee and brunch item easily cost us $25 per person. So a bit pricey as well for the basic quality.

The Chai tea was yummy and spicy. The toast with avocado 🥑 was very tasty, too. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, so I don't recommend it for large group gatherings. It was a nice place to eat at and then stroll through the rest of the downtown Mission area.

I had the Diner Sandwich, a cheeseburger on grilled sourdough with candied bacon. Both the Sandwich and fries were seasoned and very flavorful. Recommended. As to atmosphere, I'm a little old for the all-hard-surfaces design; it causes echoes which are uncomfortable for me. That said, it is cute, and seems appropriate for the intended demographic. 😏

I went to Arcade Downtown with my dad for brunch this morning, and while the food was absolutely fantastic and the coffee was spot on, the overall experience left something to be desired. We made a reservation and were greeted by a friendly hostess, which set a great tone initially. The atmosphere was bright and lively, and the meal itself was delicious—definitely a highlight. I had the steak and eggs, and my dad had the pork belly sandwich along with a chocolate muffin and the coffee of our choice. Unfortunately, we both felt that the service felt rushed. We were there for just about 30 minutes when our waiter started pushing us to pay and wrap things up (he brought us the pay device and asked for our card). We completely understand if they wanted to seat other guests, but it made it difficult to enjoy a relaxed brunch, which was disappointing since we had reserved and planned to take our time. Other guests were working on their laptop and chatting along, so we felt it was unfair that we were rushed to pay up and leave.. While the food and coffee were top-notch, the feeling of being hurried along took away from what could’ve been a perfect brunch experience.

If you’re a vegan this place is not for you. The 1 vegan meal option was “not” avocado toast. It is not vegan at the moment as they did not have the bread listed in the description. They replaced it with brioche. It would have been nice to be told this before I was seated and had waited 30 minutes to be served. The only reason this place has a 2 star was because the salsa and coffee were good. Please consider adding a vegan option or update potential costumers before being seated that you made changes to the menu. It would save all of us time.

I came in wanting to try something new, but they changed the menu, and I honestly think they went the wrong route. I saw the steak and eggs online, and it looked way more appetizing before than to what is now. They use a sauce that is spread all over the dish. As for the steak, I asked for medium well, and they gave me burnt meat with so many nerves that I couldn't even chew it properly. They don't allow you to choose between scrambled or Sunnyside up. The eggs were too runny as well. The only good thing was their hot chocolate. When the food arrived, the waitress never came to ask how everything was or if we needed anything. We had to get up for anything we needed. The burger my boyfriend got was good, but the buns were burnt as well. I recommend coming here for the drinks only. It's their most redeemable quality. There was also a ton of smoke coming out of the kitchen.

I ordered food and was told it would take about 5 minutes, but I ended up waiting close to 20 minutes. I noticed a similar order to mine come out of the kitchen, but the staff member called out the name “Payton” and placed it on the counter without asking if anyone was waiting for an order. Unsure it was mine and not someone else’s, I waited. After waiting a while longer, I asked the kitchen about my order and was told to check with the front. The front staff then realized my order had been sitting there the whole time under the wrong name. By the time I received it, the food was already cold, and a cold breakfast doesn’t taste the same. It would be much more efficient to use order numbers or a pager system instead of relying only on names, since names can be misspelled or misunderstood. Better communication at pickup would definitely improve the experience.
