Came for brunch, our server was very nice and food was delicious. The home style fries/potatoes were bomb with their sauce

Great hole in the wall spot for breakfast. Pulled up to meet a friend, and we ended up splitting the following: -spinach mushroom omelette with toast and crispy home fries -breakfast quesadilla with bacon on side and tater tots -2 cups hot coffee At 4 a cup, the coffee was just OK, but the entrees were generous and delicious. Would definitely come back, my only suggestion would be to add a latte to the menu (with real espresso).

The food was great at this hole in the wall place. The gentleman said sit anywhere and quickly took our order. The food came out quick and tasted like it was made by grandma. It was a great place for breakfast.

Nice spot for a quick breakfast. Chose some sides instead of a full meal because I was not fully hungry at the time. Ordered Loaded Tater Tots and Chocolate Chip Panko Crusted French Toast. If you enjoy your tater tots on the soggy side, this might be a great choice. The tater tots are crispy on the outside but fall apart very easily. If you like them to hold their crunch more, it might be worth asking if they can fry or heat them up a little longer. The french toast was warm and delicious with a sweet chocolatey sauce drizzle on top. It's important to note these two are side dishes so the main courses are likely more solidly prepared. I would like to come back some day to try out the other dishes. Parking here can be very limited in the small plaza space, otherwise it is street parking.

First time here and we will return! Service was quick and friendly. Food was tasty and fresh. Potatoes were crispy prices were awesome! Water was cold and didn't have any weird flavor so that was nice. The atmosphere was relaxing and homey.

We had our first Korea town neighbourhood breakfast at this place. We have a dog family so we called in for checking. They were super nice and friendly. So we decided to go in. The menu was quite good. Mexican and Asian mixed menu. The staff was super friendly and sweet. They played 80s music. Quite cool. The coffee was very good. Much better than diner coffee (if you care about your morning joe). The food had a good portion and was very delicious. If you are on a diet, I don't recommend it otherwise you should try!

Holy Cow! (This is a combined review from two visits: one last year, one a few minutes ago). This place is awesome. The chef is a wonderful senior woman that can dazzle! We ordered the French Toast Sandwich and the Breakfast Burrito. Both were fantastic. Fresh ingredients! The salad was dancing on the plate and in my mouth. Excellent sauces! Looks like mom chef puts all her Korean love with American experience into the food. The portions are huge, particularly when compared to NYC. Parking was a little tight. The atmosphere is eclectic. Korean mom cooking; Young, tall smiling man serving as host. Ona side note...happy server. Big sign of a well run restaurant is happy employees, who rave about management. Don’t be afraid of the cool young party goers who reveled through the night and are scarfing down food. Panko French toast...are you kidding me!?!?!

Panko French toast?? It was so crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside the perfect sweet as breakfast or for dessert. We also got the arugula bowl and tater tots. The tots were fried like literally perfectly!! I highly recommend for breakfast and lunch. Come try for yourself.. It's super affordable too
