If you are gluten-free, then you better get your behind here, fast! Quince felt like finding that rare Tim Hardaway rookie card (for my ol' heads) in your deck or hearing Seal for the first time. This place is so good that I almost don't want to tell you about it! This little diner is cozy, fitting probably no more than 20-25 people in the space. The kitchen is close to the customers, so the waiting staff was very friendly and responsive to order additions or changes. On a slow Sunday afternoon, I found parking right outside of the restaurant. Let's be real. For me, breakfast equals pancakes. No debating. The gluten-free pancakes were smooth, fluffy, and large. If you know anything about gluten-free baked goods, they can be dry, brittle, or bland. The spinach-egg dish was great, for the eggs were not runny or rubbery as well as the spinach was well-blended into the eggs. The best part of the meal was the freshly-squeezed orange juice! No carton; no additives; just that real taste. Whatever you do, get the orange juice! The food was more than affordable, especially for the large portions. Support small businesses!

This little hole in the wall is exactly what I love! Finding small businesses like this one makes my heart happy. The owner is very kind and bubbly! The menu is simple and straight forward. The food is local and fresh! Coffee is self serve and very delicious roast. My breakfast sandwich was very tasty and I could truly taste the quality in eggs, bread, cheese, and bacon. The chicken apple sausage was tasty and that perfect balance between savory and sweet. It's a small shop that feels cozy and welcoming. Good hearty food for an excellent price! Seriously the prices are spot on for locally sourced fresh food! You've got to stop here at least once.

Grab a menu and seat yourself! Quince Cafe is a quaint little family owned place down University on San Pablo and away from the college kids. They have a wide selection of egg based dishes and one that caught my eye was the Jordanian omlette with eggplant and chicken sausage. All egg dishes come with hash and toast. I elected to upgrade from the toast to their house blueberry muffin ($1 extra) - which is definitely worth it. The omlette is a 5-6 out of 10 spicy and I loved how fluffy the egg was. The sausage were cut to the right size for easy chewing. Only thing was that the eggplant probably made it waterier than usual because I had a pool of spicy oil liquid left on my plate. I also liked the hash, the potatoes were super thin, which maxinized the crunchy surface. The best part was the muffin - huge muffins with lots of blueberries. Moist on the inside but the muffin top had a nice crusty texture.
