Walking in you immediately understand that everything done there is done properly, and with care. That sounds funny talking about food, but baked goods are topped perfectly, bread is baked to perfection and while the restaurant was definitely busy, the staff is working tirelessly to turn tables over, to get new customers seated. Not just the “staff”, the OWNER! I told him that if the owner is willing to bus his own tables, that is a formula for success, especially in a place like Key West. Now for the food! Just as I saw in when I walked in, everything that arrived on our plates was fresh and delicious. My kids raved about the bacon, and it is served as half sized. Mini bacon strips! Who knew a tiny little change would be such a hit? The eggs Benedict is light and tangy and the waffle comes with a giant dollop of whipped cream. The tables are situated so that even with the small space, you don’t feel cramped. Prices were not ridiculous, but the food and service would have been worth the price, even if they were. Upper area of Duval is a nice change of pace from the downtown vibes.

My new Key West breakfast favorite. Croissant with egg, avocado and Swiss. I can recommend anything else. I loved it. You have to try it. My partner had lobster Benedict. Get there by 9 for almost no wait.

Very good breakfast, good bloody mary. The mango mimosa was a little disappointing. The host was not the friendly face one would like to have greet them. Overall everything was pretty good although a bit expensive. Would definitly recommend this for breakfast.

Quiche apparently can be eggless. Their quiche Lorraine and I'm assuming the other ones are eggless. You get a cheese, bacon, and caramelized onion pie no egg. We are talking 8 oz of cheese. There was some much it wasn't fully melted. Allegedly, when I asked I manager about the quiche of the day was interrupting him and didn't allow to tell that the quiches are eggless. So he chose not to tell me because I was being rude. He only told me I was being rude after my husband was done with his food and I asked where are the eggs? And he told me something about how they used to have frittatas and they never sold... but if I wasn't rude before and interrupted him I would have known that. He proceeded to tell me that I was rude and I was the guest and they had rules. And no point did I raise my voice, say anything inappropriate, or swear. I took his mansplaining and let him go on about the BS of what they call quiche. I do not think an eggless quiche-like concoction can truly be called a quiche. The two of us didn't agree on this assessment. The food is awful, the service is subpar, and the staff is rude. I never asked for it to be taken off my bill. They weren't going to do it anyways, but I never did and then was mistreated. So if you like to be mistreated enjoy your meal there.
