What People Are Saying
from Google"Best French toast I've had. Eggs where warm and perfect texture. Hash browns where exquisite 😍 just the perfect amount of golden brown, not burnt, not one single hash was out of order. Biscuits where bussin with gravy that exploded with pepper! Best breakfast in town, worth every penny I spent!"
"Great food. Top notch service! The hostess and our server were very engaging. The hostess had a back and forth game of tic tac toe with our son. Very friendly atmosphere and made us feel at home. Definitely a recommended diner in the Bellevue/Seattle area."
"Literally the worst biscuits and gravy I've ever had in my life, the gravy was extremely underwhelming and not made right in the biscuits were old, and it was way overpriced for the quality."
"The next time you consider an excursion to Bellevue Square, drive past it about 5-10 minutes until you reach the unassuming strip mall that houses the welcoming Brief Encounter Cafe. Check their hours, they close at 2pm, and it’s a smaller, quaint cafe, with a broad menu, attentive service, and tasty offerings. Biscuits are tricky and I would opt for toast in future but that is a trifle. The omelette and has browns were fresh and bursting with flavor. The friendly service was prompt and genuine. A $50 check for two is about the going rate with beverages (coffee) that was regularly refilled, without asking g."
"Like we do, woke up in the morning and started looking for a place to grab some breakfast/brunch. We found this place, had some good rating, nothing fancy and we decided on this place. The place was crowded but we didn't have to wait for seating. The staff is really friendly. As far as the food is concerned, it was good, nothing spectacular, I felt like the eggs and hash browns probably could use more seasoning. Check out pictures for more info."
