Poached Neighborhood Kitchen

It was nice place to go for brunch. Not so crowded and delicious, and service was quick. I had short rib benedict. It was nice but one thing off was the gochujang flavor was dominating the whole dish. As Korean i love gochujang flavor, but this, i cannot taste others.

We arrived around 1 pm and had enough time to eat for a party 5 until their closing time (2pm). During this sweltering heat I would suggest having one person waiting in line and your group in the car. Inside seating is limited. You order and pay for your food at the cash register. Service was great , and I understand if staff working outside might be moody because this heat is no joke !
Onto food…..
Well if you’re looking for authentic green chilaquiles this is not the place. However , I enjoyed the addition of pickled onion and radishes it brings brightness to such a hearty dish . I wish they added more green sauce and cheese . I had to ask for extra cilantro. Also the sauce is not spicy at all , i wish it was but that’s based on personal preference. My dulce de leche iced coffee was delicious! Milky and sweet . Everyone in my group enjoyed their food . Overall a good experience. Willing to try again .

Looking for a good breakfast place while visiting Downey Ca, I may have found one. This popular local spot uses fresh ingredients to create their dishes. The food is good, portions are generous and all are priced accordingly. The French Toast was very flavorful and the bread was cooked perfectly, unlike other establishments where the bread tends to be a bit firmer (hard) which, negatively impacts the overall taste of the dish. The Steak and Eggs were good but the steak did lack seasoning and flavor and tasted a bit bland. The inside dining area is spacious, clean and can accommodate large groups. Outdoor seating is available should you desire. The painted wall decor is colorful creating a soothing relaxed atmosphere. The operational efficiency on how customers are greeted, seated and served is very much customer service friendly. You’re initially met by a greeter who directs you to a QR code where you’re able to view the menu and order. You’re then directed to a cashier where you pay for the meal (In advance, tip optional) and are then seated. Within 8 short minutes your food arrives table side. This process does have one distinct advantage, which, is your food arrives much quicker than most. The draw back, it’s already paid for if you’re dissatisfied. The servers were friendly and very attentive. I would suggest you arrive early since, it can get very busy. With that, other than the steak missing the mark, overall, I believe you’ll enjoy your dining experience here and would recommend this breakfast spot.
