This is a pretty nice place. But to be honest it's a bit over rated. The food is over priced. The Egg Benedict over beef was delicious and made the wait in the line worth it.

The sandwiches here are huge and delicious! You can expect to wait about 10 minutes for your order to come out, but it's well worth it. They also have a great selection of soups, desserts, and drinks. There's outdoor seating with plenty of space and convenient parking nearby. I got the club sandwich and it lasted for two meals!

Fabulous brunch spot. Beautiful, relaxing outdoor area. Great food! I enjoyed burrata, basil avocado toast and a delish blood orange mimosa. My daughter’s French toast was the most beautiful presentation I’ve ever seen and she loved it! Highly recommend this restaurant!

The best French toast and Pancakes in this Bay Area! And you can charge your EV in front of restaurant. There are bunch of EV chargers.

Chimichuri surf and turf is out of this world. Who cooks and seasons shrimp this well at 10AM?!!! Was in and out under 5 min. Made a life long customer at first bite.

I went during lunch. It was crowded but I got my food relatively quickly. This place is pretty pricey but the food is delicious. I ordered the Mango and Salmon salad.

The quality of the food and the presentation are absolutely fantastic. Taste and texture both exceptional. They could charge a lot more for this caliber of cooking but they don't.The only reason for not 5 stars is the seating area. Very stressful, especially on the weekend when it's busy. You have to wait a long time to find a table on your own, as others are vying for the same tables you are looking to score. Once you sit down, you have other people standing around you waiting for you to go. I noticed a few parties that had a table but not chairs, so they have to stand around the table. One of the reasons for this chaos is that they keep taking orders in the front, even when they don't have enough tables in the back. For their excellent quality, I feel like the cafeteria style seating area is a grave mismatch and a big mistake. The staff are clearly overworked, but they do try their best and always displayed a great attitude, kudos!Tl;Dr - I get that they are trying to serve quality food in an accessible way and reasonable price, but I wonder if it's worth it when everyone trying to enjoy that food are so stressed out. I hope they find their way to make this work, because the food is truly exceptional.

I love this place. The photos don’t make it justice. This place is adorable and so well taken care of. The food was AMAZING. So many great options. My friends and I went and it was 12 of us. Each one of us got a different thing and they were all delicious. It was so comfortable and welcoming we didn’t want to leave. Thank you!

The food was pretty good. the service was also pretty good. the staff was good. the only reason they miss 5 star experience was literally the mimosas were very weak. it felt like the most expensive orange juice i ever bought.

This cafe is dope! Our server was super cool and attentive. Only got a picture of the pastries this time, but the sandwiches are also amaaazing. Highly recommend the creole shrimp sandwich and the pecan bar.
