Reviews emphasize freshness and variety, blending traditional pastries with a strong Asian selection and highlighting many items that are still warm and flavorful.

Standout dishes like French toast and eggs Benedict are noted for flavor and generous portions, and groups report meals arriving hot and fresh with attentive staff and a welcoming vibe.
