In Short
A navy awning shades the restaurant's "front porch," where Westwiders sip cappuccinos amid wicker chairs, ceiling fans and a '60s-rock soundtrack. Inside, exposed brick and vintage Malibu photos surround the booths. Patrons order at counter from a menu of fancy cheeseburgers, bacon-wrapped hot dogs with swiss and horseradish cream; tuna melts; BLTs with avocado; and chopped, Caesar or Cobb salads. Frozen yogurt faves are pistachio and Belgian chocolate; pastries come from La Brea Bakery. Specialty teas include tropical bliss and Zen vanilla.

Visited here for the first time for brunch last weekend, after finding that the Overland Cafe was ridiculously packed. Plenty of seating here, ordered our food at the counter (the woman was very helpful upon hearing it was our first time there) and then had it brought over to us. We ate on the little patio area and although it was a cool day the heaters and the plastic sheeting (to block the wind) kept the area warm. My tuna melt was fantastic as was my boyfriend's bacon-wrapped hotdog (but how can you really go wrong with that?) We also ordered some garlic fries which were good & garlicky but could have done with less oil. With the amount of oiliness and the smallness of the shoestring fries, I felt like I should have been eating them with a fork. All and all a great little place for brunch/lunch and would definitely come back again!

Although the decor and appearance are very charming, the food is far from satisfying. I went there this morning for the first time for breakfast and it was easily some of the greasiest food I've ever eaten. The staff was nice, the place was clean and comfortable, but the food was bad and I won't be going again.
