Kinda surprised by some of the negative reviews on Homestead, we loved it! It's maybe because a lot of the negative criticism came during the "growing pains" stage of any new restaurant opening. Now that its been a bit, Homestead seems to have worked out the kinks because from start to finish we really enjoyed it here.
We came as a party of 3 people on a Wednesday around 12:15pm. It wasn't too busy since most people are working at this time, but I can imagine they get really busy for Sat/Sun brunch. They also have a really nice looking, full bar, complete with 4 or 5 frozen drink machines. Lots of natural lighting in the restaurant too which we liked.
Although there was 3 of us, we probably ordered enough food for 4 to 5 people because we couldn't decide on just 1 thing to eat. We tried their breakfast huarache, skillet breakfast hash, Ella's chocolate banana bread french toast, brisket empanadas, and cobb salad. Everything was tasty, but our favorite things were the cobb salad and brisket empanadas. The cobb salad was a real jaw dropper when it came out because it is HUGE! Then the brisket empanadas had some the flakiest, soft dough I've had in awhile. 10/10 would recommend the food here.
MKT Heights shopping center is definitely on the come up, and part of that is because of Homestead. If you're looking for a new place for a Southern/Mexican inspired brunch with a full bar, this is the spot. We'll be back again asap to try more of the menu!
