Alina’s Cafe

Our friend group does Saturday morning breakfast every week--aka Breakfast Club. We usually stick to our regular spots, but this time we decided to switch it up and try something new. Enter Alina's Café. After reading reviews and checking out photos, we were intrigued--and it absolutely delivered. When we were ready to order, our server (possibly the owner) walked us through the specials: Breakfast Enchiladas with steak (red or green sauce) and Chilaquiles with steak (again, red or green). Naturally, we ordered both. Every steak was ordered at a different temperature and each one was cooked perfectly. The sauces were rich, flavorful, and genuinely delicious. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive without feeling rushed. Even though we were completely full, we couldn't resist grabbing one of their famous brioche cinnamon rolls to go. All around, a 5/5 experience. We'll definitely be adding this spot to the Breakfast Club rotation--and definitely wondering why we didn't come sooner.

Came here for the first time and had their avocado toast and pesto baked eggs. 10/10! Everything was so delicious! The potatoes served with the baked eggs were seasoned and cooked so perfectly. I would definitely recommend this place , can’t wait to come back again!

Food was wonderful, great service, coffee and chai tea was amazing! The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was cozy, and everything tasted fresh and delicious. Definitely a must-visit spot in Des Moines!
