Absolutely amazing breakfast spot! First time here and came back the next day due to loving it so much during our short trip to Arizona. We had the bubble waffle and chicken dish (can't remember the name!) plus just eggs and bacon which was all fabulous. Love the clotted cream on the bubble waffle- so rich but light and delicious! Great servers and atmosphere too. Glad we found this spot!
I met some friends for a monthly brunch and we sat on the patio. It was lovely! It was a little brisk and they brought a heater over unprompted. Our server, John I believe, was super friendly (and had great hair!). Our food came out fairly quickly. The proportions were large and everything tasted fresh and delicious. I had the southwestern skillet and loved it.
After many failed attempts—either no time or no available tables—I finally made it to Teaspoon, and it was absolutely worth the wait. We went as a family to wrap up a short trip, and from the start the place impressed us: elegant, sophisticated, clean, and welcoming. The kind of space that immediately puts you in a good mood. Everything we ordered was delicious. The bubble waffles were fun, crispy, and addictive, while the Three Little Pigs omelet was on another level—rich, perfectly balanced, and simply outstanding. The service was excellent: friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. And don’t skip the Vietnamese coffee. It’s smooth, bold, and exactly the energy boost you need to power through the rest of the day. Teaspoon isn’t just a breakfast spot—it’s a full experience, and one I’ll gladly repeat. ☕🥞
Don't get me wrong it was good, it was not outstanding. Way too loud inside. Servers rush around like they are short staffed. We did sit inside, maybe being outside would have been better. Fantastic Bloody Mary's! Some of our food was undercooked. (Savory Dutch Baby). Overall we enjoyed ourselves, but left with a headache from all of the noise.
Tried Teaspoon (on River) for the first time. Was there at noon on a Sunday and there was a wait but 2 seats were open at the counter so we chose those. The food was outstanding! I asked the waitress "for a first timer at lunch should I try the burger or the Morning Bowl?" She said "You can get a burger anywhere, go for the Bowl." I'm so glad I did! Fluffy eggs over homestyle potatoes, with bacon crumbles throughout. All topped by a wonderful biscuit style gravy. Everything was cooked perfectly. Husband had the Country Chicken, also cooked perfectly. I tried a bite and it was flavorful, with a completely different taste from my bowl even though both had gravy. Very clean restaurant and sitting at the counter I observed everyone doing their part. Per other reviews it is quite noisy but the atmosphere is joyful and I didn't notice the sound after we sat down.
