What diners are saying
Customers praise this Upper East Side spot for its high-quality, homemade-style food, with daily entree meals and catering platters receiving particular acclaim. Standout items include the fluffy pancakes, toasted breakfast wraps, and delicious desserts, though some found the soups and ham slightly salty. While the atmosphere is described as cute, clean, and brightly lit, service experiences vary significantly, ranging from helpful and friendly interactions to reports of rudeness at the counter. Despite higher price points, many diners appreciate the restaurant-quality fare and strong coffee.
