We only dine outside because we didn’t want to wait at least 40 minutes for inside dining so I can’t say what the inside looks like. The outside is very nice . It was cold but they put out heat lamps . I would say it’s a nice place to take a date. The service is good, the food is decent and worth the price . We went for brunch but I like to go back and try other menu items. Very nice atmosphere . There are plenty of places to park .
I love this place. This time we came in a group of 4 people for brunch. We waited about 20 minutes. We could see a good number of tables available, but they weren’t seating more people. I think because they didn’t have enough waiters. They had indoor and outdoor spaces. This time we sat outside. It felt like a peaceful jungle. We also stepped inside and it was cooler inside and also nicely cluttered with mixed busy decor, but different. The selection of brunch items was not much. The menu seemed full, but when we started reading the description of each item, they all had the same ingredients: eggs and pork! Two of us were vegetarian, and one of us didn’t like eggs! So we were stuck with what to order. Maybe the lunch or dinner menu is better, but we didn’t order from those. I don’t think I want to go again for brunch! I might try going again for another meal at different time of the day. The service was less than regular. The waiters popped in and out very quickly to drop the goods and leave without any personal touch. I must say that I don’t like to have people with extra long beard carrying and serving my food. The beard was dangling a few inches above my food. I have no problem with people with beard, but it would be great if they can cover it while they’re carrying people’s food. I was frantically looking for hair in my food. I also noticed that more than one waiter/busboy with a long beard! I will go again to try to pump up my review with a better experience.
Crazy cool place, 1st visit. Their decor is amazing, and it was packed with happy, smiling and laughing customers and hardworking happy employees. Jordan took good care of us, and the food was delicious. We sat inside, and their outdoor patio is just beautiful!
This is a wonderful treat to experience, it is like eating in a tropical paradise outside on the patio. Food and service were amazing. Seating is rather close, so prepare to hear your neighbors conversation and they will hear yours. High quality menu choices flavored to perfection.
I had such a wonderful breakfast at this restaurant! The food was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Every bite was flavorful from the perfectly cooked eggs to the fluffy pancakes and freshly brewed coffee. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was cozy and clean, a perfect place to start the day. I’ll definitely be coming back…. highly recommended!
This is a staple in the Sacramento landscape. But keep this in mind; prepare ahead of time because there WILL be a wait to get a table. Soak up the atmosphere. Grab a cocktail. Enjoy and take it all in. Once you are seated - then the experience will shoot up through the scales. The food is amazing. Our table of 4 all tried various items - 2 of them at the very helpful recommendation from the service staff. And lastly - whatever you do - do NOT skip out on dessert. They are all delectable and will satisfy your post meal sweet cravings!!
Really enjoyed our time here. Food was great, server was nice, and the atmosphere is very intriguing. We enjoyed the huevos rancheros, tower garden omelette, and French toast Benedict. We were seated immediately on a Friday morning but it was still relatively busy so food took some time to come out. Otherwise, would highly recommend stopping here for a meal!
