I visited here because it is 2 miles from my house and I saw they served brunch when most places had cut it off for the day (2 on a weekday). There were quiet a few options that looked great but I settled on the cowboy breakfast bowl. It had fall-apart steak, onions, peppers, green chilis, tato tots, topped with 2 eggs of your choice (over medium for me and perfectly cooked!) It was seriously good. I look forward to trying some of the other offerings soon.
Great food and Barista Coffee. A fancy small bistro with a huge heart. Chicken n waffles with tender juicy cutlets with a mild spicy syrup over a golden waffle. A fluffy biscuit with a sausage patty all covered in tasty white sausage gravy. Gourmet coffee made to order! Nice dining experience.
Do not go to this place if you are on a tight schedule or a rush. These guys take time to get the food done But when it's done, it's a very heft portion that tastes superb. Each entree order is sure to satisfy hunger. Bring hunger when coming here or expect to have leftovers
This is not my first visit and definitely not my last! The food and service is amazing. Previously had their burger & today I opted for the street tacos (and requested the green salsa). Everything was amazing! Our server, Brandi, was very nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone. I don't have young kids, but their kids menu looks just as good as the adult menu.
Nice Bistro with a varied menu. Something for everyone. Fast friendly service. Prices aligned with the economy. Decently portioned. They have specials daily. Serve alcohol. Highly recommend going. One of the few restaurants near the Fairgrounds in Pensacola.
My wife and I stopped here with our daughter on a Saturday afternoon. We were in town from Ohio for a softball camp at UWF. We ate out at the tables in front of the restaurant. Our server was great and the food was very good. We started with the Grit balls of fire. For lunch I had the shrimp and sausage gouda grits. My wife and daughter had the cheeseburger mac n cheese. Everyone loved the food and I'm glad we opted to eat here instead of one of the gimmicky restaurants down in Pensacola Beach. I would definitely go here again if we come back to Pensacola
We came in a few minutes before they close and they happily served us and not for a second did we feel like we were holding them up. Food was great, service was great, can’t wait to come back!
Laid back cute little breakfast/lunch spot. Outside patio seating made for a nice breakfast in the sunshine. The waitress Lacy is so sweet and attentive she made the whole experience.
