Perhaps one of the best places in the area to go for breakfast, enjoy a fairly quiet meal and a cup of coffee, all in an atmosphere that's cute, quaint and tucked from the hustle of the surrounding Newport Peninsula. This place feels much more small-town that its surroundings, located in one of the old shipping districts, with a small but warm interior and very inviting outdoor patio. Every time I go to breakfast, it turns into a 2 hour affair, with time to just sit and talk with friends or that special someone. As a breakfast burrito connoisseur, I give a big thumbs up to Alta's version! There isn't anything bad on the menu...and the buckwheat pancakes absolutely take the cake if you need your dose of flapjacks. I know they serve lunch and maybe dinner but I've yet to try it out, but I can't imagine the food being bad. Service is generally good unless the place is really crowded, and it can get that way at times. Definitely worth going to!
