βUnderwhelming :( Went in for coffee and breakfast with my boyfriend. We ordered 2 Iced Nutella Lattes, a chorizo omelette and a sausage quesadilla. The food was not bad it was just bland. We weren't even upset about it being bland. It was cooked to order and we appreciated that. It was fresh and the greens with the dressing on the side were delicious, but we both noticed the lack of meat in each of our dishes. There were 3 pieces of chorizo sausage in my omelette. Just 3... I ordered an omelette with meat because I wanted meat. We were stoked about the lattes because we noticed that Rex had a marzocco machine. The latte tasted like watered down chocolate milk with the tiniest amount of Nutella. We couldn't taste the coffee at all. We both had to add a lot of simple syrup to make it drinkable. We actually ended up getting more coffee elsewhere. 5 stars for the atmosphere. It's cozy and quaint and dimly lit. The books are a nice touch. Good playlist with artists like Taylor Swift and Frank Ocean. Sadly even with a pleasant ambiance, it's not enough to make me ever return.β

βGreat cafe and sit down spot, however I was unimpressed with the food. I would recommend this place if you want to sit down and have a nice breakfast with someone, not if you want an amazing meal.β
