  Came on a Friday morning around 9am and was seated right away. Patio seating does not open until 11am but there is plenty of indoor seating. Quaint place with helpful and friendly staff! Ordered the lemon gingerbread pancake per servers recommendation with two eggs and bacon. Was underwhelmed by the pancake and wished I had picked a different flavor as they have many unusual pancakes to try! If you like gingerbread you would love it, I found it a bit dry even with syrup. The menu has a good variety so I will definitely be back! The breakfast potatoes were absolutely delicious! They allow service dogs indoors and are pet friendly on the patio out back. Would recommend! Extremely long wait times on weekends.

  A really good brunch spot, and most definitely a must try. Their home fries were just simply cooked to perfection. The eggs were pretty good so were the ham and bacon. The sourdough was one of my favorite! Overall, a really good place in Berkeley with food of higher standards and you can tell because of the amount of awards and/or plaques on the wall.

  I was so looking forward to this place since I heard really nice recommendations from my friend. I tried to make a reservation but couldn’t reach them. We went there and put our name in waitlist. We were told it’s about 45min wait. However we actually ended up waiting 2 hours! Maybe due to limited seats outside (we have a dog so need to sit outside), but just be aware their estimate can be way off. We ordered a pancake with bacon and egg; and a omelette with whole wheat bread and home fries. Unfortunately the pancake was dry, the poached pears was delicious though. The omelette was normal. What I liked the most was actually the home fries and their butter - their butter was so soft and creamy, delicious with the bread. They don’t have dog menu but we ordered bacon and egg without seasoning for our dog so it worked.

  Food: 3/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Overall: This place was packed and there was a slight wait for some standard fare food. The extended review… Food: Gingerbread Pancakes – 3/5 – I’ve been to a few places where I could compare the taste. The taste of the pancake was subtle and could have used a little more punch to it. Definitely could have used a little more pear as well. Bacon – 3.5/5 – A good serving of bacon and I appreciate that it was not crispy but chewy! Service: 3.5/5 – Friendly and attentive service. Ambiance: 3.5/5 – So this place was very cute inside and out. The only thing I’d say is that the inside was a little claustrophobic. Thankfully we sat outside in the patio which was very nice.

  Cozy little place for great brunch! We went there for Saturday brunch. There was a 20 minute wait but the service was quick and so good! There's both indoor and outdoor seating. Mocha is to die for- easily one of the best I had in the Bay area. the potato and carmelized onion omelette was bland to my taste but still good!
