The pancakes are so fluffy with a creamy tirimisu frosting on top, with mapel butter on the side which went so well with all the flavors. They used hash browns for egg benedicts and they had the perfect runny yolk soaking the deep fried hash browns. Texture and flavors are very good. The service was very nice too, I will definitely bring other friends and family back here

This was a great and welcome addition to the neighborhood when it opened a few years ago. It has…read morebecome a regular spot for me. They serve Latin American food along with classic diner fare (sometimes with a Latin American flair), and the food is always high-quality and delicious. I have nothing but faith in this kitchen, and they also take great care to accommodate my food allergies. The waiters - Chewy, Ivan, Jacob, and Jose - are consistently accommodating and charming. I think this is truly one of the best places to eat in the neighborhood, and I often bring friends here, and everyone I have introduced to this place has liked it. Highly recommended.

Beet salad has flavors that go together so well, nuts was blended well with a nice smoothness and texture, and salmon was cooked well. Garlic bread was provided and very tasty. Two pieces provided but quality. I like that it is a small amount but done well so that I am not overeating carbs. Very classy. I couldn't finish the salad and took some home. Service and people are friendly.

I am one of many who first heard of Golden Diner from my doomscrolling, but it was very much worth…read morethe hype and the wait. We arrived ~30 mins after opening and there was a short line to put my name down. From there, it was an hour 45 minute wait, so we strolled through Chinatown to kill time and enjoy the neighborhood. If you don't want to wait, get there early! We were seated in the lovely car park patio and from there, the ordering process, service, and whole process was quick but not rushed. There aren't a crazy number of tables, so it actually feels like you have room to yourself. The food itself was amazing. The breakfast sandwich was great for something heartier and of course, the pancakes were amazing. We also had to try the Thai tres leches since you don't see that everyday. Overall, a great experience! I'll be back!

The atmosphere and ambience was warm and inviting, while people were engaging and having fun it never got too loud where you couldn't have a convo at your table. It was also still happy hour, so we enjoyed a few glasses of wine, the QR burger, and the Roast chicken breast. Both equal delicious. We also wanted to try the crab and avocado dip to share, but we weren't sure if the chips were safe for my friend to have, who has a GF allergy. Our waitress was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. The waitress knew which plates could be modified to accommodate dietary restrictions which was super helpful in decision making process. Overall the food, service, and atmosphere were great. Def a nice place to check out!

The staff was nice about it and we were able to give our extra seats to another party who gave in. Unfortunately we were there too late for happy hour specials and the cocktails are a little on the pricier side. Drinks in my photos: La Isla Bonita Like a Virgin (mocktail) (I love the Madonna-themed names) We really wanted the Halloumi Fries but were told they ran out. Food shared between 2 people: Chicken Wings (lemon parmesan flavor) Seared Tofu (comes with asparagus, broccolini, spinach). French Fries (large portion so others at the table had to help us with it). One of my other friends had the Cacio e Pepe tortellini. He said it didn't taste like "authentic" cacio e pepe but that it was still delicious and he finished it all. Great staff, location, ambiance, food and drinks.

For food we shared the shrimp sliders (yummy with a tangy sauce) and a classic fried calamari. Super chill local place worth visiting.

They also have a temporary shed for the summer, for additional outdoor seating. For my meal, I had a pancake burrito, and it was better than I could have expected. The pancake was so fluffy and tasty, with a hint of crisp on the outside and a nice chewy texture overall. The savory components of the burrito worked surprisingly well with the pancake exterior, making for a medley of sweet, salty, and umami that went really well together in every bite. Our server was excellent, can't say enough about how good the brunch was. I definitely recommend this place!

I wish the drinks were a little stronger but they were good nonetheless. The server was great. The place gave an old school save by the bell vibes very cute. They have happy hour starting at 3pm during the week. The bathrooms are clean. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We went on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't packed at all. Will def go back to try their desserts.

The service is consistently excellent--the staff is always friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. We never skip the mini brioche French toast to share. It's the perfect sweet start (or finish!) to the meal and an absolute must-order. We've tried several dishes, including the shakshuka, ranchero scramble, Whisk scramble, and the black garlic burger, and every single one has been delicious. Honestly, we haven't had anything here that we didn't love. The quality is consistently great, portions are generous, and everything is packed with flavor. If you're looking for a spot with amazing food, warm service, and a beautiful atmosphere, Willow & Whisk is definitely worth a visit. We'll keep coming back!

THE FOOD ---------------…read more+ Mini Brioche French Toast - Lots of ADDICTIVELY delicious little French Toast bites. Could have used more strawberry and banana slices in it though. The whipped cream cheese dip/topping was so unique and goooooood and what really made the dish. + So-Cal Breakfast Bowl - Sunny-side up egg, breakfast potatoes, black beans, pico de gallo, sharp Wisconsin cheddar, roasted tomato aioli were all good. No real complaints about the dish other than it came with toast in old photos, but I guess they did away with it. + Lemon Ricotta Pancakes - Lemon curd flavor was soooooooo goooooood. Loved these huge, pillowy pancakes. There was a smear of lemon curd on the top layer pancake with blueberries all around. Didn't look huge in photos, but it's definitely a big order of 3 pancakes. + Raspberry Coulis Pancakes (Seasonal) - Same comment as above, but with a white chocolate sauce, raspberries twist. Once again, EXCELLENT pancakes and flavor. Loved every single bite of this. + Matcha Lemonade - Very unique. Basically tasted like what its name was. It was lemonade with a hint of matcha flavor in it. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Waitress was verrrry friendly, courteous and professional. She had a little personality to her and was on top of everything. + Food came out very quick after we ordered. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- + Beautifully decorated, contemporary restaurant. Everything about this restaurant was very homey, yet modern. + Floor to ceiling windows let in a lot of natural light everywhere. + Lots of tables and seats inside, but it gets BUSY during brunch hours. + Outdoor seating was available in their patio at the front. + Parking lot was shared with the rest of the Boulder Run Shopping Center. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------- = Arrived at 10:50 AM on a nice August Sunday morning and, as expected, it was BUSY. However, it was only about a 15 minute wait when we were quoted 45 minutes, so it's not a long wait at all. = When you wait for a table, they take down your number and text you when your table is ready.

Attentive and helpful staff. Great first impression of the place - garden decor, chandeliers/ambient lighting. Got the Creme Anglaise souffle pancakes - with fresh fruits, very light and fluffy, not too sweet. Ice cream sounded simple on the menu - though just a small scoop, it came with red bean paste, fresh fruits so not bad @$6. Rose latte is rosy of course with crushed petals. Liked the food presentation, cute spoons. Will surely return. Restroom available.
