This place is so good. The people here have to be some of the friendliest we have ever had at a restaurant. All while allowing you to enjoy your meal. They took time to make each customer feel special. It helps that the food was amazing. We enjoyed a variety of brunch items and each was spectacular. You can't go wrong at this place.Food: 5/5

Our go to breakfast spot!! Best around and so cozy. The staff are lovely human beings and neighborhood staples Chef Francis for mayor! - they treat everyone like friends and family. The food is always fresh and fantastic - I’ve tried everything on the menu and my only issue is choosing one sometimes my husband and I share a third dish as an “appetizer” when we can’t decide. Best coffee, bacon, and grits around. Do yourself a favor and try their homemade hot sauce and a matcha latte - you won’t be sorry.

Great little breakfast spot. We have been here twice and loved it. Great coffee, nice people, prompt service and their vegan sausage is yum. A must try spot for sure. One thing to note is it’s usually packed during rush hour so plan accordingly

Always wanted to investigate what the buzz is all about. Have seen scores of people waiting outside to grab their order. So I ventured on a Tuesday morning for a cafe latte. The place was really cozy, narrow to be precise. Open kitchen besides the indoor seating. Had to squeeze myself in and wait for the order. Customer service was good. People were nice and prompt. Coffee is good! Loved their cafe latte. It was so good that I didn’t wanna spoil the taste by adding sugar. It’s your neighborhood coffee shop. Will return for brunch!!

I moved into the neighborhood in 2013 and have been a regular customer for 9 years now. This place is one of the best parts of the neighborhood; my wife and I love to come in on the weekends. Their menu is classic, consistent, well-executed and always delicious. Chef Francis regaled by Mr. Green Genes, and previous appointment to the Duke of Prunes will delight you with his charm and wit—be sure to try his *outstanding* Atlantic salmon sandwich, biscuits and gravy, and grits specials. His famous homemade hot sauce is fantastic. OK, now I’m hungry, I will see you there !!!!

We were looking for a breakfast spot on a snowy Friday morning and found this place. It was just what we needed – comforting warm savory breakfast. Loved the food! Simple yet perfectly made and very fresh!. The best part about Sam is probably the staff. EXTREMELY nice & illuminating positive energy! Will definitely come back!

Went on a Sunday morning around 12, the wait for two people was around 25 mins. Got a pimento sandwich and a fruit salad. The sandwich was simple and nice. The staff is friendly, good vibes, good enough simple breakfast options, a bit tight space good for max 4 people groups. A nice find overall.Food: 4/5

Nothing special on behalf of my food choice of eggs, sausage and potatoes w/ toast. I could’ve made the same thing at home but better. Potatoes needed seasoning. My blueberry lemonade was so good though. The highlight of my breakfast. My sister enjoyed her French Toast though. Got to try it and it was really good. So far it’s my sister’s fave French toast. She didn’t like her hot chocolate though. It needed more chocolate for sure. Friendly staff and cozy place.

It’s my favorite breakfast spot in NY and Jersey city area so far. It’s so feel good and the food is amazing. The owner/head chef makes the caramel himself for the salted caramel latte I love it. The French toast is SO good too!! Just come here on a weekday and enjoy happy vibes whenever you need a pick me up! Weekends are pretty busy.

My first time here and this was easily the best dining experience AND chicken salad sandwich I have had. The portion size was much more than I had expected and the hot sauce I was given added that extra kick I love. The servers and the owner were all so kind and got to know me even beyond just being a patron. He even gave me the recipe! I definitely plan to return here as often as I can and I was so satisfied with my experience that I’m leaving a review which I never do God bless you guys!
