Omg what a Gem !!!! I would fly back to Boston just to go here. The food was amazing. The service was quick and efficient. The restaurant was small but beautiful & clean. I'm now an addicted to the Lobster egg benedict , my husband had chorizo hash with 2 eggs was also excellent, my son had sliders and said they were delicious . I highly recommend this place and go early they get really busy. The staff is so nice they will seat asap if possible.
This is not my first visit, and each experience has been excellent. Having recently moved to the north end, this was the first place I wanted to introduce to my boyfriend. The restaurant exudes a charming small-town atmosphere. They gave fresh banana bread to start that was delicious and the cinnamon roll pancakes were immaculate. I highly recommend making a reservation, as there is often a long wait.
Everything was so good. The service was on point and the noise level was a good volume where you could sit and talk, but not be drowned out by other tables' conversations. There was a wait, but they took us quickly. It's definitely worth the stop while you are in Boston. It's right by Paul Revere's house if you are doing the Freedom Trail.
Food was great! Giant portions. We shared some dishes. For a family of 11 we were seated promptly. The feel of restaurant was cozy and in a brick building on a corner street. We had a variety of dishes which included blueberry pancakes, sweet and salty sandwich, french toast with raspberry and cream cheese, sausage/egg breakfast sandwich, banana bourbon french toast,uber full crudite french toast, crab omelet, lobster Benedict, breakfast burrito, chicken waffle sliders and A meat lovers omelet. We also had several coffee orders, cappuccino and soda orders. Our waiter gave us excellent service and kept the cups full.
I ventured to the North End instead of my usual Boston Commons venue. So glad I did. ANOTHER HOME RUN. This long term icon is a treat. It will be tough for you to decide as the selections are inviting. My first time left me quite content: Healthy portions. Your coffee/water never empty. I love sitting at the counter. You get to take in the vibe and watch The Team in action. A real fun time. Thank you for your friendliness.
Came for breakfast. There was a bit of a wait but with the reviews I was reading, I didn't mind. We ordered the breakfast tacos, a breakfast sandwich and wanted to split the Boston crème pie pancake- washed down with pineapple mimosas.... Perfect, amazing, flavorfull, I don't know how else to describe this place. The mimosas were a wonderful balance of juice and champagne. The tacos were much bigger than expected. It came with 3, and filled. I added pico, sour cream, jalapeños and some hot sauce to it. It was just perfect. Lastly- the pancake, it was giant, and topped with a warm and chocolatey ganache. The filling was just like the donut, not too sweet, not too much. Overall great balance .
My friend from Charlestown invites me here a few times a year for breakfast, and the food is always top notch. You want your homefries extra crispy, how Iike them? Just ask. You want a tasty mimosa, or a flight, or a watermelon mojito to start your day off with a mini buzz? They got you. You want fancy triangle plates with food from rim to rim? You're covered. I have never been here with anyone else, but I think it's time I brought my husband so that he can experience eating here as well. Make sure you have reservations, or plan to be in line for 30 minutes or more... popular place!
Food was delicious. I got the short rib hash with two eggs, home fries and toast. I asked for over hard and they came out a little runny but were quick to fix the problem! It was just what I wanted! Highly recommend the Chai Latte Martini! So good! House was packed and service was constant! Would recommend making a reservation to avoid the wait time. Friendly staff!
Short one but a sweet one Enjoyed a crab cake Benedict that was tasty. Thick French toast that was delightful I was too early for the mimosas so I can't speak on those although the pomegranate one looked intriguing Either way when I'm beantown again on the weekend I will be sure to make a reservation to be there timely for mimosas
The line will be ridiculous. Be patient - it's worth the wait! The staff hussles and the food is the best way to start your day. Been here a few times with friends while visiting Boston and each and every experience has been excellent. Lots of classic breakfast/brunch choices on the menu -- omelets, egg Benedict, waffles, pancakes, French toast -- and adult beverages Beyond coffee. My favorites are the chicken and waffles sliders (sriracha + maple sauce is BOMB) and the North End Bennie (with mozzarella and prosciutto), though the classic is great, too, because they make a mean hollandaise sauce. Pair with a grapefruit mojito or zesty screwdriver and you're all set for the perfect brunch!
