What reviewers say about Heart of Gold
People say this restaurant serves delicious chicken sandwiches, smash burgers, and chorizo toast. They highlight the creative menu, the generous portions, and the cozy, laid-back vibe. They also like the friendly and accommodating staff.
“Their food and drink menu is beyond compare - every time I come here I am amazed at the quality and presentation of all the Heart of Gold offerings. I even showed one of the staff a beautiful photo of fancy toast I got here in 2022 and she remembered the menu item !! I love talking to the staff here. Excellent spot. Great happy hour :)”
“Not a bad brunch. Everyone enjoyed their food. The fried chicken sandwich is very good as a brunch item due to something they put in the batter to make it a bit sweet (cinnamon?). I respect their sauces. Their buffalo was probably the best I’ve ever had, and the Thai peanut was interesting and delicious. I wouldn’t go out of my way to come again for brunch, but everyone in my party left happy.”
“Pros: Big fan of their brunch options! Very clean, spacious, and many seats inside. The waiting staff member we had was their first day and they navigated very well throughout! I liked their brunch drink options and the recommendations were spot on. Cons: check the price and difficult to find parking.”
