I will be dreaming about this place for the next few WEEKS! Made a reservation in advance, definitely recommend this as usually they are reservation only or sometimes I think they do bar seating on a walk in basis if they can accommodate. And they are sticklers, if your entire party is not there, don’t expect to be sat! And sometimes you may lose a reservation if you’re too far past. Also, pro tip they have parking on the street and a small lot. My favorite accommodation is the walk up window. You can order brunch cocktails and coffees to enjoy while you wait, or your entire meal to go which is a nice add on. They have seating both indoor and outdoor as well as an indoor bar top area. Inside is super chic and modern, the staff is all very helpful and friendly. We ordered the cinnamon toast to start which was delectable. Tasted like a Cinnamon Toast Crunch bite but amplified. Was big enough to serve three of us! For mains my friends ordered the chicken and biscuit and I had the bacon sandwich (BEC). The flavors were amazing. The bacon cooked to perfection, the eggs similarly. The BEC had pimento cheese and jalapeño jam which was seriously nothing like I’ve ever tasted before. Beverage wise the salted caramel in any coffee is incredible. Not too sweet either which is hard to find. They have a mimosa pitcher for the table, or singles if you’re looking for brunch cocktails. Phenomenal food and experience. Already booked another reservation for the new year.

What a perfect evening! Poeta has a wonderful vibe—not loud, tables spaced well, an intimate feel. The food was top notch. Don’t miss the chicken liver appetizer, the grilled Ceasar salad (with warm croutons!) and the tiramisu.

There is a wide range of food items to choose from. Fresh salsa served with chips when you arrive, so yummy. Server was very nice. I enjoy the laid back atmosphere in a home setting. My mole was delicious. I highly recommend this spot.

Great atmosphere, but the food was the star. Best wedge salad ever, the house-made ranch dressing was amazing. The ribeye was perfectly done and sliced. We finished with a slice of carrot cake that was delicious- moist and flavorful.

Food and drinks delicious. Waiter was attentive. Ambience amazing! Whole experience amazing!
