Really great food and once we were seated the food came out quickly. However, since we had five people and this is a very tiny restaurant, we had quite a wait for brunch.

If you want organic everything and deliciously prepared, get to the Jones! Breakfast is yummy and we meat eaters can get bacon. Soups are homemade, interestingly spiced, and so good going down. Salad are spectacular with all those organic baby greens and choice of dressings.
If you arrive at a busy time, it's worth the wait, so relax until you're...

I had an omelet it was amaZing until I received the bill. Try there chocolate chip cookies there amazing (but yet again 1 cookie is almost $4).
Unique dishes. Great food. Affordable prices. Local food inputs, which is awesome. Best place to go for brunch!!! (Cash or check only though)
