    Best of the best in Austin! The ricotta toast I had today was easily one of the best versions of toast I’ve ever tasted. The black sesame coffee was excellent as well.

    So yummy! Our server was attentive and kind, the energy was great, and the food was even better! I loved being able to see into the kitchen! We were 12 minutes late to our reservation but it was not a problem. Our drinks and food both came quick and tasted fantastic. I’d definitely come back (if I can get another reservation!)

    Great food and service. Very nice small touches like the way they serve hot tea in a mini press.

    I will be dreaming about this place for the next few WEEKS! Made a reservation in advance, definitely recommend this as usually they are reservation only or sometimes I think they do bar seating on a walk in basis if they can accommodate. And they are sticklers, if your entire party is not there, don’t expect to be sat! And sometimes you may lose a reservation if you’re too far past. Also, pro tip they have parking on the street and a small lot. My favorite accommodation is the walk up window. You can order brunch cocktails and coffees to enjoy while you wait, or your entire meal to go which is a nice add on. They have seating both indoor and outdoor as well as an indoor bar top area. Inside is super chic and modern, the staff is all very helpful and friendly. We ordered the cinnamon toast to start which was delectable. Tasted like a Cinnamon Toast Crunch bite but amplified. Was big enough to serve three of us! For mains my friends ordered the chicken and biscuit and I had the bacon sandwich (BEC). The flavors were amazing. The bacon cooked to perfection, the eggs similarly. The BEC had pimento cheese and jalapeño jam which was seriously nothing like I’ve ever tasted before. Beverage wise the salted caramel in any coffee is incredible. Not too sweet either which is hard to find. They have a mimosa pitcher for the table, or singles if you’re looking for brunch cocktails. Phenomenal food and experience. Already booked another reservation for the new year.
