A little wait sometime, but totally worth it. The food has a great presentation, decent portions, and a nice atmosphere. The omelette and wings are fantastic 😊 Definitely stop by for brunch or lunch.

So good. A little spendy and a bit of a wait for breakfast, but very good food and service. The millionaire bacon is the bomb. The deep fried french toast? Give me more.

Great place to get brunch in Palo Alto with friends. The food is always delicious. My favorite is the Pimped Up Ramyun. It feels a bit silly to pay for $23 shin ramen, but honestly it’s really good. I love the flavor and the vegetable...Read More

The food is delicious and beautifully presented. But the place is loud and busy. You have to talk loudly to hear each other. Great for food, not ideal for a quiet catch up.
