I need to go back. I desire that Philly cheesesteak sandwich! The food came out fast and was delicious. The service was awesome. 10/10. New favorite spot.

Waffles, french toast, and crepes all very delicious. Staff was very kind. Best breakfast we've had in a long time! 10/10 - will be back!

I come here a lot—not just for the food (which is great), but for the vibe. The music is honestly the best I’ve ever heard in a breakfast spot. Sometimes I hope my food takes longer just so I can stay in it a little more. The owner’s got real energy, clearly loves what he does, and it shows. It feels more like a fun neighborhood hangout than just a restaurant. Five stars—good food, even better atmosphere.

Friendly, efficient staff serving delicious food. Recommend the churros pancakes. You'd think they might be too sweet but hit the perfect balance. The waffle benedict was so good! How have we never seen this on a menu before. Oh, and the music was great too!

The food was worth the wait! This is not a place you will sit down, eat, and leave within 30 minutes. So if you are on a time crunch, choose another restaurant. I’m pretty sure as business continues to pick up, they’ll hire more staff and the wait time will decrease. Now if you have the time to wait, make the drive! It is sooo nice to visit a restaurant out here that knows how to season their food very well. I had the chorizo crepe.. excellent. A side of mixed berry french toast.. excellent. An iced Thai tea.. excellent. I think I over ate, but the food was so tasty! If you’re like me, and you like to take your friends and family to great restaurants so you can take credit for the amazing food selection lol, go to this restaurant. For me to leave the restaurant, sit in the car, and write a review... that says a lot because I have so much to get done today. It could also be because I’m stuffed to capacity! Let me not forget... the staff and music.. superb. PLEASE! (In my Michael Scott voice) don’t change!

I visited Sweet Desert Cafe with nephews and we were received with a smile and greeting as soon as we opened the door. The food portions were very generous and tasty. I ordered the green chilaquiles and the strawberries and cream French toast. My nephew ordered the churro waffle and it was delicious.

It’s a cozy and charming spot for breakfast, hidden away in an unexpected place. It’s way better than those chain breakfast places we’ve been to. We had a great time there!

This cafe has been on my list for a long time of places I wanted to visit - honestly I waited too long to visit. The food was phenomenal, the selection was excellent which made it a tad hard to decide what to get. We will just have to come back to try more!
