  Husband and I ate here for the 1st time for breakfast.
  I had the Salmon Benedict and thought it was awesome, just that one of the yolks was cooked and not poached. No biggee..
  He had the farmhouse tacos and didn't complain, but said they were just "ordinary" nothing special.
  Service was good for a busy Sunday morning.
  Will definitely be back next time I'm in DC!

  This was our first time here and we will DEFINITELY be going back....SOON.
  Our server, Marina was a true joy. Very friendly and kept a good check on what we may need without being annoying.
  The food was fantastic! The Cinnamon French Toast OMG if I weren't stuffed I'd have gotten a 2nd order. Also had the West Coast Reuben...so very good!
  You will not be disappointed.

  I will never go to this restaurant again. I am a vegan vegetarian. My first visit to this restaurant was on a Sunday morning. The menu isn't necessarily vegan friendly, but my friend wanted to go. The nightmare began when I tried to order the tacos without the meat and dairy products. This completely confused the waitress. So to make it easier for her, I asked for a side of spinach with mushrooms. We asked if the the chef cooked meat and veggies on the same grill. She told us the chef could saute veggies in a separate skillet. In a eureka fashion, the waitress, then, suggested that I get the tacos with just vegetables, which is what I asked for in the beginning. When she came back with my order, she explained we have done it this time, but the manager said that they would not be able to accommodate my order when it's busy. She said I should come during slow times at the restaurant if I wanted something special like just veggies. I have been vegan for more than 25 years and have never had restaurant staff tell me where or when I should patronize them. I spoke to the manager about this problem and explained how offended I was. The manager explained what she meant by the comment, through the waitress under the bus for telling me what she had said, and tried to apologize. In poor customer service taste, the manager opted not to comp any of my bill. I guess it was my fault that I thought a restaurant whose menu boasts that steak and eggs can be cooked to order could possibly do something as simple as saute spinach and mushrooms for a patron who just wants veggies.
