a delightful surprise as well, fresh and beautifully balanced. And the coffee? Truly perfection. Every detail felt thoughtfully done. I’ll definitely be back.

riendly, pleasant, and doing her best, which we really appreciated. I ordered the Artisan Egg Plate, while my husband chose the Mediterranean Benedict. He truly enjoyed his meal and mentioned it was very flavorful, though he felt the plate could have used a small addition—perhaps a biscuit or a slice of orange—to round it out. Unfortunately, my experience was quite different. The Artisan Egg Plate was disappointing. The description of scrambled eggs with spinach, crispy pork belly and yogurt drizzle sounded unique, but it didn’t quite deliver. The plate didn’t have spinach and instead had the arugula and it tasted like it had a simple dressing rather than a crispy pork belly and yogurt drizzle, and overall, the dish felt a bit misleading compared to the menu description. The scrambled eggs themselves were not very appealing. The potatoes, however, were good—I ended up taking those home since I didn’t finish the rest. At the time we placed our main order, I also requested a to-go order of the Dubai French toast. The server mentioned she would put the order in once our meals arrived, which is something I often do for convenience. After finishing our meal, we paid the bill and were told the French toast was being prepared. As the lunch rush began, it became clear that the restaurant was understaffed. The same young lady was handling orders on her own, and although another staff member eventually stepped in, it seemed like help came a bit late given how busy it was getting. We ended up waiting 20–30 minutes for the to-go order. There appeared to be some confusion, as the server later apologized and mentioned she thought it had already been brought to our table. I waited part of that time in the car because the restaurant was quite cold—something other customers also noticed, with some even moving tables because of it. When we finally received the Dubai French toast, it was underwhelming, especially for the price. The portion and taste didn’t meet expectations. It tasted like a Dubai chocolate bar was just melted between the French toast? We dine out often and enjoy sharing our experiences with friends, especially through photos and recommendations. My husband, who loves to cook and has a great appreciation for good food, was happy with his Benedict—which says a lot. However, overall, this visit didn’t leave us with the impression we had hoped for, and it’s not a place we would recommend at this time. That said, we do understand that every restaurant can have an off day. With such a promising menu, beautiful location, and a kind server doing her best under pressure, we truly hope this was just one of those days and that the experience is usually much better.
