Dix Cafe

Needed to eat breakfast in the area, I decided dine here. Learning from past experiences, I avoided the bacon and eggs and settled on the Strawberry Banana Nutella Waffle. The waffle was light and fluffy. The strawberry and banana toppings were enough to make it a very fulfilling meal. The Nutella topping kept the waffle moist. Not only was the syrup not necessary, it would have distorted the overall taste.I came before any major crowds, so the two waitresses were enough to deal with the existing customers. Sitting at the counter, service was both friendly and fast. Whenever I emptied my coffee mug, I was able to get a refill without a wait.

I don't often give 5 stars, especially on my first visit, but Dix Cafe is deserving of 5 stars. The space is beautiful and comfortable. It used to be a wine bar and it was beautiful then, so I am happy then kept the cafe just as beautiful. The service is outstanding. Madison was our waitress. She was very friendly, besides giving my friend and I great service. The coffee is delicious. The menu has so many options it is hard to make a decision. The Veggie Omelette was one of the best I have had. It was the perfect size to fill you up, without being ridiculously big. And, a big plus, it came with avocado. The fruit was very fresh and the toast was the icing on the cake. My friend and I are already deciding what we will try next. I also plan to bring others soon.

My wife and I with our oldest daughter dropped in for lunch to this breakfast and lunch place. It's a wide open space concept with booths on one wall, a wall length bar on the other and tables in between. Has what appears to be a larger family table flanked by sofas on either side. Place was busy and for me anyway, fairly loud. One person's loud voice can echo in there for days. Place is open for breakfast and lunch so keep that in mind. The place seems to be run by younger folks who are quite nice, but seem to make the ambiance feel more like a youngsters hangout than a local sit down place. At one point they were very loud congregated by the register in the corner of the bar. Good to see young folks enjoying their time at work but there should still be some decorum....The menu appears to have a fairly traditional breakfast slant highlighted by some signature hash brown bowls. Other side of the menu is their brunch (salads, hamburgers, avocado toasts, kids menu) and it looks to cover a lot of bases as well. The Reubens caught my eye, my teenager ordered the country-fried steak breakfast, and my wife chose the cheeseburger.Country fried steak was ok, it's not fresh-made from scratch and looks to be a processed job. The sunny side up eggs came back very liquid around the yolks (not gonna be too tough there as those are tough to get right) and the hasbrowns were under-seasoned making them very bland. The solution on those were either ketchup or Tabasco sauce for us....LOL...It made for a fair meal but that's about it; sour dough bread one of the choices for sides was pretty good. Runs $15.00 and I'd have to say a dollar or two higher than the value I'd put on it. Cheeseburger I thought was fine. My wife thought it to be dry. A shining moment for my wife were the fries as she said that's about the best thing on the plate. Twelve dollars and I felt it was OK value... but my wife might argue...lol....she did have a point that the bun was way too big for the burger which never makes a good impression. I had high hopes for the Reuben as it mentions the corn-beef made in house. Runs $15 but I'm afraid they could do a better job in how they serve it. I don't know the value of such great corned beef if it is drowned in cheese and butter; so much so that it dominates the sandwich, trumping even the thousand island and sauerkraut, which should be noticeable sidekicks. It seems like a grilled cheese with a side of corn-beef instead. The bread so soaked by butter that it makes your hands greasy....I think it's an easy fix but surprised they let it get through the pass that way. The service from ordering to receiving the three plates was about 26 mins so seems to be a bit longer than it needs to be for hamburger, eggs, reheated country fried steak, etc. A couple of missteps by our waitress forgivable but also helps in the lower rating for me. Total bill after taxes $45 and we left another $8 for the assist. Overall very nice folks and I hope they can make the little adjustments that would be needed to raise the level of food we had there.

This was our second time giving this place a try and will definitely be our last. Unfortunately the food here continues to be an overly expensive disappointment. My husband and I both ordered the country breakfast to go. It gave no place while ordering to ask what type of eggs you would like, so we were stuck with fried eggs, fine for me but I prefer mine over easy and these were over hard, and my husband does not like fried eggs and would've preferred his scrambled. The "hashbrowns" are tiny diced potatoes that are the most bland thing I have ever tasted. I do enjoy the style in which they're cooked but they are completely void of any flavor at all. Both of our biscuits were small and undercooked and crumbling. And we were shocked that for $15 it came with only one very small biscuit instead of two. But the most egregious part of the meal is the sausage. The thin cheap 'McDonald's' style breakfast "meat" in place of true sausage when you're paying this much is unacceptable. The restaurant is cute inside and close to home, the service was timely after ordering and correct and for that it gets 2 stars instead of one, but the food and prices are just leaving so much to be desired.

It's was our first time here and the pictures don't do them justice for how beautiful and relaxing the environment is for breakfast. Classical music plays and there's open space to have nice conversations. Our waitress Madison was very nice and checked on us appropriately (not too much, not too little) and she had some cut cat ears for Halloween spirit. The food portions were large so be prepared to take some home and the Cali Toast was flavorful and yummy. The hash browns were more like tiny chunks of potatoes but still good and more than I could eat. This is also one of the only places that has breakfast open until 3pm whereas others close at 2:30pm so that's an added bonus for us and we'll be back again!

Bad management & scheduling of workers.There were only 3 people on the floor.We were seated quickly. However, after waiting for over 15 minutes, we still hadn't received any water or greetings from a server. When a couple that came in several minutes after us got their drinks & their server ignored my attempts to get their attention, it seemed that we weren't wanted there. So, we left.

First time here and the food was great.The hashbrowns were the best hashbrowns l've had at any breakfast place. They were both crispy and fluffy at the same time. All ingredients are organic and you can taste the difference.We will be coming here regularly.

Food was decent, but unlike many breakfast restaurants they do not offer specialty coffee drinks. Only black coffee available with packaged creamer (no fresh milk or dairy products). Very odd to not offer a wider range considering it is a breakfast and brunch spot.

I am dumbstruck that an eat-in cafe that supposedly prides itself on coffee does not offer fresh milk or cream and instead has every table set with a bowl of individual takeout creamer packets. $4 for a tasteless cup of Coffee. I ordered the BLT with egg and avocado on brioche. The sandwich was delicious though I would rather have pork bacon instead of the chewy beef bacon.The server was very attentive and pleasant.

The staff was very nice, and the restaurant very clean, but there are no breakfast combos that include pancakes and eggs.
