“ I really liked this place, thank god because I really wanted to! Upon entry into a bright, cheerful space with just enough to fill the shelves with books and goods. The kitchen in the back with juice bar and walk up counter. The specialize in a flapjack made with corn and coming both sweet and Al savory versions. My husband had them with Sunnyside up egg, chipotle syrup and cilantro lime Crema. Delish I had what I'd call a Pho-Pozole. Hominy, bone broth, chicken, poached egg, garnishes and I added avocado. It was good, needed a bit more seasoning which I added with s&p and a touch of chili The green tea was delish - I didn't get the name I'm really kicking myself for that! I also got some ginger cookies to go which looked soooo good and did not disappoint! Girls at the counter were friendly enough but could have had more personality IMHO. Slightly standoffish, would be my only service slight. Good place, not too busy, or too loud. Go! ”
“ Since my last review, Modern General has applied clear coat over the chairs, eliminating any issues with the chairs taking a bite out of your clothes. This remains my go-to breakfast place in Santa Fe, and was quite a crowed pleaser for my out of state guests this past week. The Chia seed putting is tops. ”
“ Obsessed is the only way to describe my impression of our first visit here!! We ordered some coffees, the savory green chile cakes, and the lemon blueberry sweet pancakes. The savory cakes were to die for and so unique!! Haven't ever had the chance to have anything like that before! The sweet pancakes were also delightful!! Overall this space has awesome natural light, beautiful high ceilings and cool art and books that you can also buy. Service was helpful and quick!! Can't wait to come back and try more!! Such a gem!! ”
“ I still love modern general but I've been back a couple times when the food wasn't that great. It seems like there is a real problem with consistency right now. ”
“ The hubs and I came here first thing when they opened and good thing because it quickly filled up. It should be noted that we felt like we had walked into Rose's apothecary but with the addition of food and coffee. I started with a cold shot of ginger, apple and honey. It was fresh pressed and wonderful. Then the hubs and I both got oat milk cappuccinos which were pretty perfect. For my main I did the chia oats with granola, raspberries and passion fruit curd. I was so happy with my choice - absolutely delicious and I'll be attempting a recreation back at home. The hubs did the stir fried rice with veggies and an egg. It was a pretty large portion and he sadly could only eat half although it was awesome and packed full of flavor. Service was friendly and this is a place to put on your must try list when you have a little time to sit back and relax. ”
“ Modern General is near the hotel I was staying at and as I walked into town and back every day, I would pass it. I think it has a really cute interior. Locals seem to go there and get some work accomplished, instead of working from home. So, I love that they have that option available to them. On my first visit, I tried the gingered apple juice. I got a regular size. It was so good! I loved it so much that I went back the next day and got a large. It's pretty pricey for juice, but it was also really really good! Freshly pressed. Mmmm. ”
