Excellent food and service. Food is always fresh and tasty and the service excellent. My favorites are the vegetarian enchiladas and the fish and chips. The baked goods and homemade ice cream are not to be missed.

A hidden gem for breakfast and lunch. My friend and I both had the special mushroom omelette which was terrific. Havarti cheese mushrooms toast and potatoes. There is also a bakery. Bread is good but we found the carrot cake only ok. I hear they also do great carry out.

Delightful. Very nice welcoming service--it was very noticeable how many of the customers eating breakfast were happy regulars. Very good food. Reasonable prices. Clean. Comfortable. Highly recommended!

Five friends went for lunch at Ellen‘s bakery café. I live in the neighborhood and have never heard about this café before. We had a delightful lunch. Service was excellent. Food was excellent. Some of the things that we tried were the Maurice salad, vegetable quesadillas, and the pulled pork sandwich. On my way out. I stopped at the bakery and bought some focaccia rolls and mini desserts. We will try them with family dinner on Friday night. It was a nice variety of desserts, cakes, and breads. It’s worth it to go there just for that.

This place is a local gem along Orchard Lake Rd. They have a great bakery and their breakfasts don't disappoint. The Morel Omelet special recently was excellent.

It’s a deceptively big place. Bakery, lots of counter seating, lots of booths and tables too, more space to the right of bakery. They are making some efforts to seat table groups 6 feet apart or so. They do use paper straws here, have plastic wares as an option too, though they aren’t wrapped. The straw I had didn’t last. It’s disintegrating as I try to finish my OJ, half way through and it’s stopped working now. Had to get another straw. Probably would be best to keep the condiments off the table or wipe them down, which I hoped they did before we sat down. I think it would be a great idea if they had a big sanitizer pump or spray with when you walk into the door, much like the cruise ships make every guest clean up before entering an eatery. Danielle waited on us, she’s patient, attentive and pleasant. Ordered the Duck confit hash, eggs over hard, cinnamon walnut raisin toast ($0.78 upgrade), huevos rancheros, eggs over hard, 1 blueberry pancake and 2 brioche French toast (minumum). Their fresh squeezed OJ is good. The duck confit hash is tasty, better with some sriracha sauce. They have sriracha, Frank’s or Tabasco sauce for some added heat. The huevos rancheros was just okay, not super flavorful, most of the taste from the salsa. It comprised of potatoes, cheddar cheese, eggs, guacamole, scallions, salsa and sour cream. We like the ones with a real homemade ranchero sauce, black beans and optional jalapeños too. The blueberry pancake was quite delicious and slightly crispy, could have easily eaten a full order of them. 1 was a perfect accompaniment though. They supposedly put my brioche French toast in the oven to crisp it up some after pan frying, however, it wasn’t crispy and rather too soft for my liking. Their brioche bread tasted good otherwise.

My wife and I had dinner at Ellen’s. We’ve been there numerous times for breakfast and dinner. Our server, Red was friendly and knowledgeable. My wife ordered the whitefish that came with fingerling potatoes steamed veggies and a salad. I had the walleye with veggies and mashed potatoes and salad. Everything was very fresh and nicely presented. We’ve always had good experience’s here and this time was no exception. We’ll be back.

This restaurant is reasonably priced and has fine food as well as great service. We do wish it would be open on Sunday evenings for dinner or at least on Monday evenings as well. We are always surprised when it isn't busier. It is a welcoming place to eat.

We bought an apple pie for our Christmas dinner. The pie was so good, it is not too sweet, with a bit sour. Pie was crusty even for several days.

I recently visited, and I have to say the batter on the fish & chips was totally delicious. I have been here many times for breakfast, soups, sandwiches, and they are always well-made and service is great.
