LOVE this spot so much. Great menu with delicious flavors. 15 min wait for breakfast this morning on a Sunday around 10 am. They have coffee available for you as you wait! Look forward to trying the Scandinavian soup and French toast next time.

Food quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 First time trying Finns Cafe and it was fantastic! We got the Scandinavian Breakfast with Trout and the Norwegian Waffles with chicken. Everything came out perfectly cooked and very quickly. The wait wasn't too bad for a Saturday morning brunch - only about 15 minutes, which was impressive! DO NOT SKIP on the loaf of sourdough bread. It's probably the best sourdough I've ever had. They also sold Jule kake for the holidays and I need to go back and try it out.

So delicious!! Definitely recommend. Visiting family from out of town. Colors on the plate don't look too exciting, but quality & flavors were just right. Everything was fresh and tasty. Loved the cardamom in the waffles, complemented perfectly with the sour cream and wild lingonberries. Couldn't finish it all, so savored the leftovers at home later in the day. Also, kids menu was great too... just enough food and the kiddos loved it. Annabelle was a wonderful server, very helpful and responsive. All in all, a wonderful meal and experience.

This beautiful breakfast place was refreshing during my month long stay in Utah. The ambiance reminded me of some of my favorite breakfast restaurants in Los Angeles and I realized that I had been craving that hometown elegance. I highly recommend sitting outdoors; the rosemary bushes and flowers create a nice barrier between the outdoor dining area and the parking lot. It feels intimate and warm. The service was very warm, one of my absolute favorite things about being in Utah was the excellent and friendly customer service. Everywhere I went, and even moreso here, I felt like I was treated like a long-time customer. My cappuccino was excellent and I was thrilled to finally have a great cup of espresso, something I had been craving being subject to only what was available near my hotel. It was smooth, creamy, and delightful. The whole menu looked delicious and I spent quite some time going back and forth on my decision, but ultimately I got the waffle and chicken. Lingonberry jam was too much for me to pass up on. The waffle had a very light flavor, it was a good vessel for the jam and sour cream, but didn't lend itself to much. The chicken was perfectly fried, albeit seasoned less than I wanted. All the same, I was happy with this overall pleasant and sophisticated experience. If/when I come back to Utah I look forward to another cappuccino and trying other menu items.

It's really cute. The coffee is killer and food was ok. Our server was great and plenty attentive. I had the Norwegian Christmas bread (Jule Kake) French toast and my friend had the 2 eggs with bacon. She had asked for sourdough with it, but got rye. They didn't have any of the jam we had been told was a specialty there. Apparently, they can't get the ingredients. For me, French toast is a thicker cut of bread, but the thin cut was tasty with the raisins, citron and cardamom. Did I mention the killer coffee??

Came for brunch with some friends and had a great experience. The parking lot is a bit small but you can find parking around the area on the street. We sat out on the charming patio surrounded by rose bushes, it was lovely! The staff was super friendly and very attentive. They took really good care of us which definitely added to the overall experience. I went with the classic French toast. It had the perfect hint of cinnamon and the syrup was delicious! Seemed like they made it fresh in house.

Checked this place out for their patio and their food and service was a bonus! This place is like a diner, but not. The menu is concise, but there are plenty of choices to suit everyone. I actually love a diner that has a menu that doesn't have every choice under the sun. If I wanted that, I'd be at the Cheesecake Factory. Extra bonus...you can get lunch as breakfast. As someone who prefers a sandwich or salad over any breakfast dish, this was a perk. I'll be back to take advantage of this option. Pros: My coffee cup (and water) runneth over (kept hot and full). Our server, Kali, was attentive and helpful with recommendations. She was working that patio like a pro. It was nice to have a server who was bright eyed and bushy tailed at 7:30am with the heat just casually rising. Pro: The food was excellent. A friend and I split the chorizo omelet. Don't sleep on this omelet. I was skeptical about feta and chorizo, but they melted together perfectly. We also split the sourdough pancakes. So fluffy and soft. Shoutout to Kali for bringing us two plates so we could share. I'm still talking about the Pros: The patio is wonderful. It's shaded and made private with half walls and natural bushes. I didn't go inside, but it looked pretty cute. Cons: eh, none. Seriously. My friend and I had a great little Frate (friend date) this morning. Heads up! As of 7/28/23 There is currently construction outside (not their fault). The sidewalk in front is inaccessible, but there is parking in the south side of the building. You have to access by using the street one block north or come in from the south side of the building.

Great service, the hostess and wait staff have always been fantastic. The food is a little over priced for what you get, but you pay for the ambience which is quite pleasant. Royal Omelette was good, nothing special but the hash browns were cooked to perfection. The Weinerschnitzel with the lemon and capers actually paired really well. Again, very decent food, and great for brunch. Their espresso drinks are also really good, rich with flavor. I will have to ask about the beans they use the next time I'm there.
