A new breakfast and lunch venue opened last week in Mission Square Plaza on Pine Ridge Road in North Naples. The family-operated Naples Brunch is the first restaurant for Jose Ojeda and his wife, Bianca Rodriguez.
Although they have separate ownership, Naples Brunch and Bonita Brunch in Bonita Springs share many of the same menu items. “Some things are different but, overall, the menus are pretty close,” Ojeda says.
The extensive menu includes French toast and pancake flights, breakfast skillets, omelets, eggs benedict, sausage and biscuits, avocado toast, chicken and waffles, crepes and breakfast burritos. The flip side features salads, burgers, melts, wraps, sandwiches, gyros and falafel pitas.
The address, 1575 Pine Ridge Road, Unit 22, has been a restaurant space for many years, most recently Community Table, which closed earlier this month. The commercial condominium also has been home to Western Prime Burger, Dino’s Restaurant, Sol Caribbean Grill and Kazbar Cafe & Hookah Lounge.
The new owners refreshed the space and whitewashed some of the previous rustic look. “We want to make people feel warm and welcomed,” Ojeda says. “We’ve gotten some very nice feedback. People are enjoying the atmosphere here.”
The new restaurant is open 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily.
