I LOVE this place. It is a neighborhood gem that I wish I had visited loonnngg before this past February. Tucked in the small shops of Kentlands, lies the best mom&pop shop ever. The place is small, and they cook everything right up in the middle. They seriously only do have 2 burners, so Im so amazed at how quickly they can cook everything. Even though they were so busy, the servers would still come by the table to check on us and to let us know when our food was on the way. And the food!! The food was so good! Between the BF and I, we ordered the kimchi fried rice, the kimchi omlette, and the blueberry waffle. The waffle was cooked to perfection! It was so airy and light and I couldnt have enough! The older couple next to us watched in marvel as I ate not only "my" omlette, but picked food off of the BFs kimchi fried rice and the blueberry waffle in astonishing record time. As other reviews may have mentioned, it is pricier, but the quality of food and service for a small business like this cannot be beat! This place has just been bumped up to the top brunch/lunch place for me in Gaithersburg!!

I cant stop coming back to this place! All around a great experience. I cant tell which is better; the food or the service: They dont just use the best ingredients and make most, if not all, items from scratch, you can tell they put a lot of care into the preparation. I must have had about half the dishes and drinks on the menu by now, and every one of them was delicious! The actual establishment is intimate and very charming, which is matched by the people that work there. Every time I arrive Im greeted by everyone, including the chef. Theyre the warmest people that youll have the pleasure of serving you. Ive been recommending this place since I first tried it myself, and everyone I take loves it. You will too.

It is a very small restaurant and getting sat at peak times can sometimes be quite a challenge, but after 5 visits or so neither I nor my partner have had a bad meal. Their speciality iced teas & coffees are fantastic. Their sweet menu items are indulgent & delicious. Their filling and core menu items (ie. the omelets & breakfast plates) are very well presented and extremely well cooked. The waiting staff are very polite and knowledgeable, and do their job well. All around, I give this restaurant 4 stars as the food and service are both wonderful, but the restaurant is small and seating can sometimes be challenging. Definitely worth a stop.

Went on a Monday, early afternoon. Was able to snag a table outside. Owner is very friendly and both food and service were top notch. Pet friendly as well! Water dish was offered to my sisters beagles. Food: Omelette with bulgogi, hash browns and a cucumber salad. All delicious. Cleaned the plate. Beverage: Blueberry and apple latte. So happy I gave it a chance! Kind of a smoothie latte. Very tasty. Ambiance: very chill, relaxed place. Will come again soon :-)

We got here around 11am on a Saturday and this place was very busy. The staff was very nice and and seated us briefly. The wait became unreasonable especially once guests who came after us got served before us. Our server was generous enough to check on us occasionally between the wait. The good: The small family owned feel of the place, with fresh food and friendly staff. The blueberry latte was very good. The bad: Aside from the wait and small space...not much.

The wife likes this place a lot. Im not particularly a big fan. Maybe because I think that the prices are a bit expensive. The wife likes the gluten free waffles. And the ambience. The staff is very nice and the place is hospitable for toddlers. I would probably be more enthusiastic about this place if they did poached eggs. For gluten free lactose intolerant non-meat eaters not great, although admittedly I have a high bar given the dietary restrictions.

when i saw business was Resteraunt and dry cleaning I was afriad to eat here. The good reviews overcame my reluctance. My daughter and I had waffles and ice cream. We enjoyed them a lot. The service is very friendly. Note is a very small space. It gets a little loud. I would classify this as a Korean Resteraunt with other food options. Didnt try but plenty of others did around me and seemed to be enjoying.

I was in the area from PA. I needed breakfast while my friend was getting her hair done, up the street. My friend suggested Gazebo and Gazebo did not disappoint. The service and food were excellent! I ordered something simple (2 fried eggs, home fries, toast, chai latte & a strawberry smoothie for my friend). I noticed how friendly they were to new and recurring patrons which made me want write this review. Just try it.

As always, great food and fantastic service! Absolutely amazing! Best brunch around here, hands down. If have anything to complain, its a bit smoky due to the open kitchen. It is brave to have an open kitchen for any given restaurant since it is an indication that their material is fresh and process is super clean. However, ventilation could be tricky. Anyway, this is my go-to place for brunch whenever I could.

Delicious! Its a hopping place and theres a good reason its hard to get a table, food is great, staff are friendly, and its a unique experience. From classic American fair to some incredible Korean homestyle dishes, it was all incredible. Thought it was just a coffee shop, but gave it a try for Sunday brunch and was really surprised at what they had to offer. This place is a hidden gem in the Kentlands.

Really cool concept - a mix of a American/Korean coffee shop / cafe. Small place and tiny kitchen gets overwhelmed. Weekend service was really slow, but the food was great. Felt pricey for the quantity of food, but good food. I got the bulgolgi beef and waffles and enjoyed every aspect of the dish - a fun take on the classic savory/sweet chicken and waffles.

Omelette was delicious. Boyfriends waffle was outstanding. He also much enjoyed his breakfast platter with ham. My almond milk sweet potato latte was very good. Well definitely be back. Best breakfast Ive had in this area. The owner was gracious and helpful and genuine. Wish they opened earlier for breakfast on the weekends.

Cute cafe with exceptionally friendly staff! I absolutely love this cafe. Its straight from a Hallmark movie and the food is INCREDIBLE! Their current hours are only temporary and the will be open for dinner soon! They also do takeout orders. Definitely check this out if youre in the area.

The food is amazing, and the business is independently owned and run by passionate staff and kind people. When it gets really busy its difficult and the service slows down, but thats understandable considering how small it is. Definitely my favorite breakfast and brunch spot.

LOVED this cafe! I have been looking for a small cafe for a while now in gaithersburg, and this was perfect! Best apple spice tea I had in my life- actually had apple slice in it! Everything is homemade. Definitely coming back! Wish it were open past 230 PM on most days!

Just as others have described. Charming place with great food and very friendly service. We were especially impressed with the special details that cater to toddlers. We might have to make this a regular spot. Glad to have found it!
