To start, the ambiance is fantastic. The walls are decorated in worldly trinkets and the patio is kept intimate with numerous plants. The menu is fantastic! It was so hard to choose an entree. We started with Pom frites, elote del calle (grilled sweet corn with mayo and Parmesan), split the jerk chicken (which has a perfect touch of cinnamon spice) and finished with devil's cake (rich chocolate cake). The entire meal was DELICIOUS. I recommend sharing so you can get a taste of everything!

Atmosphere is a bit unpleasant. If you're outdoors, there will be flies. Especially annoying in the summer time with the addition of hot weather. If you're indoors, it will be noisy.

The bakery has reasonable prices and the meals are in large proportions.

Would not recommend their tuna melt.
Fries definitely need some work and consistency. Some were well-seasoned and very flavorful while others seemed not to be seasoned at all.

Good customer service, and many water refills.

They have a lot of funky stuff on the walls. Outdoor seating is a nice green area. The plates are large. Everything is very clean and the food is good. I recommend the home fries.

A pretty cool brunch place that is "international themed" and has a wide variety of breakfast and lunch options. Overall it's pretty overhyped and disappointing. I waited 40 minutes on a Sunday which was not worth it in my opinion- if you're coming on a weekend try to arrive before 10 AM.

The ambiance wasn't that great- while the outdoors seemed nice it was right next to the waiting area and extremely packed. The indoor section was busy, cramped and very loud. It was difficult to have a casual conversation with my friend while waiters and guests were constantly cycling pass the table.

I ordered their special croque madame/monte cristo - french toast turkey sandwich with an egg on top and smothered with hollandaise sauce. It was very heavy, each bite got harder to eat and I struggled to complete my meal despite being so hungry before. I could've done without the sauce, I'm not sure if that is an option but that is just my suggestion.

This place gets business mostly because of its fame and because Sacramento socialites want to show off on a Sunday here. For the price and dining experience, I'd have to pass up this place and get brunch somewhere else in the area.

Brunch here is always amazing, and the French toast is out of this world. I highly recommend trying to sit in the garden, but if you have to sit inside all the art on the walls is entertaining to look at. I have been here countless times and can count on superb service and great food. Definitely a destination in Sacramento.
