I was introduced to this place about a month ago and I'm obsessed. Great atmosphere, great food and drinks! Definitely recommend.

Excellent food, great atmosphere, and even better, they have Gluten Free options that are actually options! No burger with no bun sort of thing. Their gluten free bread is very delicious. Also brunch is superb!
1 word - AMAZING. Great food selection (offers dietary restriction options - vegetarian/vegan/gluten free), huge drink selection, and amazing baked goodies. A great place to bring a date or brunch with your friends, and even family! Parking is very limited and competitive, so come early!
Went here for brunch and it was good! Service got the rating it did, because it wasn’t clear when we got in to to the restaurant whether to seat ourselves or to wait. Stood in a line for some time, before someone came and sat us and we didn’t need to be in that line. There were some other couples confused as well. During the meal the service was okay.
Finding an organic food restaurant is always a plus. Adding that the food was great makes it even better. I'm definitely coming back. And I wish they made it a chain, and I can find it everywhere one day. Tip: Don't leave without trying their hashbrowns or pozole. The only thing I didn't like was their pancake
Beautiful, cute place! The service was fast and everyone was kind. My waitress was accommodating for the entrees. The only downside is it would be nice for the restrooms to be kept up on regularly.
Flawless. Everything about our experience at French Meadow/Bluestem was perfect. The atmosphere was inviting ; relaxing jazz music, appealing lighting, and even a birch forest in the dining room.
We started our meal with the mushroom “calamari”, which was very tasty. I had the spa salad (fantastic!) and black bean chili. My dining partners each had a salmon dish, both of which were tremendous. We finished our meal with a caramel brownie.
Thank you for a truly lovely evening!
The building itself offers a variety of spaces that allow you to choose your own adventure, so long as there's room to pick. The cafe wins out, in my opinion. The coffee and pastries steal the show from the dine in menu, to which my main issue is that the menu itself feels a bit sparse and overcharged at the same time. I understand the concept, and it indeed offers endless options for people with dietary restrictions. It's a nice space place overall.

First time here and it was absolutely amazing! I was on keto but whenever I come across a place that has clean ingredients,(aka organic, raw, gluten free etc) I have to break my keto and try it out!
I Love the fact that it’s “Farm-To-Table”, the atmosphere gave me the old day vibes of preparing your own foods and not relying on the food chains for everything!
The cashier was extremely nice and very helpful.
They only had 1 waiter to tend to walk ins because they were booked and had no available reservations. So we had to order at the cashier, pay, then wait for the food. But believe it or not it was actually an interesting process.
The blueberry French toast and signature pancake were amazing, they included extra maple syrup and butter free of charge!
They have a green filtered complimentary water which was sweet.
They also have a kids menu
We ended up grabbing some gluten free cupcakes and cookie dough, their coconut Macarons are amazing!
I can’t wait to go back for lunch/dinner to try their grass fed meats!
UPDATE
Had to come back for dinner and it was spectacular!!!
The incredible mac n cheese is incrEDIBLE!
The grass fed burger(despite me always ordering well done) was medium but was so tender, the home pickles were amazing, and the secret sauce is def kept a secret for a reason!
They have home made morrocan ketchup which had a slight spice to it i was impressed.
Not sure how they cook the fries but they were just right!
Grilled cheese was 8/10.
Organic Ceasars salad was good
Buttermilk fried chicken sandwich was good.
Homemade lemonade is great.
Bathroom is extremely spacious!
Delicious food and wonderful atmosphere. The outdoor patio is wonderful, especially the back section away from the street. The salmon Benedict is a full salmon fillet topped with spinach and eggs. The fish portion in the tacos is generous. Lovely seasonings and dressings.
Had reservations for the weekend and the wait time from when we ordered and received items was long, even drinks took at least 15 minutes to come. They forgot part of my order, but brought it out immediately once I pointed it out.
Overall, this place was good! The food was tasty and the service was pretty fast for how busy they were on a weekend morning. I thoroughly enjoyed the Eggs Benedict I ordered, and the rest of the party enjoyed their food as well!
However, it seemed quite loud for a morning, the table was a bit dirty (we kept finding old pieces of salad stuck to the table), and the server forgot a few things that were specifically requested (extra cheese in the breakfast quesadilla and an extra side of hollandaise for the eggs - although I did eventually receive it after requesting again).
Regardless, we liked the food and would come back for it.
The restaurant is a nice and cozy place to have brunch with family and friends. Egg and bacon croissant is delicious. Salmon egg’s Benedict is okay, not too much flavor in the salmon or hollandaise sauce. We also got chocolate croissant and blackberry peach danish to-go and they were tasty.
