    Yummy!

    Love this place! Great breakfast and lunch menu, plenty of vegan and vegetarian options with southwest flare. Portions are just right and leave you satisfied. Staff was busy but attentive and friendly. We recommend the Tamale & egg dish, huevos rancheros, and Cobb salad.

    Breakfast for a Southerner.

    Their breakfast was just what this Southern gal needed after a week away from home.😂 The biscuits and gravy were yummy. My husband had the hash brown dish. The surrounding offered a nice photo opportunity.

    Have eaten here many times. Each dish is different and wonderful. Love the blue corn fish tacos and their version of coleslaw. The pancakes are mesquite and so sweet.
