We visited for breakfast this morning, and it was such a great experience from start to finish. We found free street parking about a block away, and the short walk was well worth it. We expected it to be packed, but we were seated right away. The restaurant wasn't overly crowded or noisy, which made it easy to relax, enjoy our meal, and actually have a conversation. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and professional. I wish I had gotten her name before we left because she provided great service throughout our visit. I started with the iced lavender oat milk latte, and it was delicious. We also shared the famous monkey bread, and it definitely lives up to all the hype I've seen online! We ordered it with both the cream cheese and caramel, and it was amazing. The monkey bread was incredibly soft, fresh, and the portion was huge. I've had monkey bread at other local coffee shops before, but the texture here is on a completely different level. For breakfast, I ordered the French toast, and it was made well. I appreciated that it wasn't overloaded with whipped cream. My husband liked the crispy bacon and his chocolate chip pancakes he said they were rich and fluffy. We'll definitely be back. Everything from the food and atmosphere to the service exceeded our expectations. This place is simply too good not to return! read more

I was looking for a new and exciting brunch spot and for some reason we always forget that there are a ton of restaurants out in Wayzata. So I found Benedict's online and thought it looked like a good choice. The restaurant itself is really bright open and airy. Lots of natural light and high wood beams. The restaurant employs an online wait list, which I love. So you join the wait list online, it tells you how long your wait is and the you can plan your arrival to minimize your wait. I was surprised that on a Saturday, we walked right in and were seated... it wasn't all that crowded (that said, there was a big No Kings rally that day so people might have been busy). At any rate, we were greeted and seated immediately at a nice table. I enjoyed the many options on the menu and also loved that you could order a single specialty pancake if you wanted one. I ordered the classic benedict. My husband got the tot hash. We ordered a strawberry nutella pancake to share. The pancake was good, though honestly the nutella strawberry topping was a bit meh. My husband said his tot hash was not what he expected (they seem to make their own tots and then deep fry them) but he did like it. My benedict was decent, but there was way too much ham and not enough hollandaise. I hate when people are stingy with the hollandaise. Coffee was good and strong. My peach mimosa was fine but honestly pretty small -- I'd be surprised if it was 8 oz. Service was OK. Nothing super major to complain about, but my mimosa wasn't delivered until I was almost through my first cup of coffee. The waitress clearly just forgot about it. She basically said so and apologized. I noted that many tables had lovely little bottles of water for when you wanted to refill your glass, but we did not receive one. It also bothered me a bit that there was a lot of "stuff" on the floor. Trash, bits of food, etc. I know that things get really busy at brunch spots on the weekends. But someone really needed to go around with a broom or a vacuum. It's just not what I expect from a dining establishment where I'm going to drop $80 on breakfast for two. read more

Stopped by here after the hot chocolate run. got on the waitlist and by the time we got there, our table was ready. The place was busy, the staff was very helpful and got us seated right away and got us waters. Spent some time looking over the menu and ordered a few things. The place is on the Main Street and there is street parking plus a parking lot about a block or so away. Good ambiance and clean restaurant with high tables as well as booths and tables. I got a steak Benedict and on the table, we got steak and eggs, the brunch burger, French toast, omelette, pancakes, side of the hot chicken and the burrito. The food took a few minutes to come out but it was a busy day and they had a full restaurant so that's understandable. The server was friendly and helpful and was attentive to our needs. My Benedict was good. The béarnaise sauce had good flavor and the steak was cooked to temp. The breakfast potatoes were perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy and soft on the inside. The burrito was packed and had decent flavor and the steak and eggs were good with the same béarnaise sauce that was on the Benedict. The burger was overcooked but the egg on it was perfectly cooked. The kids were not a fan of the pancakes but the star if the show were the French toast. We shared one order of it and it was enough for the table as a sweet ending to the meal. Overall, this is a decent place for brunch. There are definitely other places that have better brunch in the cities. I wouldn't mind going back there if a group wants to go or if we are in the area. I wouldn't seek it out if make a point to go out of my way to go there. read more

This is a brunch spot we frequent with its close proximity to where we live, reliability with the waitlist "wait times" and pretty spacious interior. The food is not the most "flavorful" on its own, but there are plenty of seasonings and sauces on the table - very Minnesotan. Service is always pretty great here, which I appreciate! Most recently, I tried to breakfast potatoes thinking they'd be the cute little cubes. They were big potatoes (hah!) so next time I'll go back to hash browns. Prices have certainly increased slowly over the past year(s) but still seems reasonable for the area! read more

We absolutely love this spot! We recently moved to Plymouth and we're looking for a nearby breakfast spot that wasn't super busy. My wife and I also really enjoy eggs Benedict so this spot made sense to try out. Plenty of parking nearby although might be a short walk to get to entrance. Hasn't been too busy when we go around 8AM on weekends. The service is great and the food is delicious. Highly recommend going here for breakfast/brunch. read more

Wowowow was this place great: 4/5 classic Benedict - the ham was shaved a little too thin, otherwise excellent flavor. 4/5 gravlox - the tomatoes were cut a little too big, wish they were sliced instead of chopped. Also didn't like that I had a tomato core. But well balanced, great flavor. 4/5 French toast. So good, just wish the whipped cream was smaller dollops. Amazing experience. Great service. Loved how the server asked if we were sharing and offered extra plates right away. Waters and coffee was always filled. Will absolutely return. read more

SOOOO GOOOOD. beautiful. delicious. great service. i got the eggs benedict and it was genuinely the best of my life

This was my second time here, but my first visit was yearsss ago! Everything was better than I remembered - it's the best breakfast we've eaten out in ages (maybe ever?). Everything was delicious & the pancakes were served with real syrup, which is a BIG + from me. Service was great too, engaging but not overbearing. This spot would be especially great for a summer brunch since it's right by the lake. Everything inside is nice, bright and happy with high ceilings. read more

I thought of this place after a doctor visit in Edina. Not a long commute at all. I got the smoked trout benedict. Little pieces of trout that resemble salmon. I asked for a lot of Hollandaise sauce and he brought out a little boat of extra and didn't even charge me for it. He brought out extra lemon for it as well and I did use it. The poached egg was a perfect runny yolk. The bottom muffin wasn't hard on the teeth or to cut with a regular knife. A perfect brewed iced tea. I got the side of tots that I was persuaded to try since it is a scratch kitchen. They are huge. You can taste the scallion. My waiter Tyler was more like a personal valet catering to my every whim. He's one of those people that goes the extra not the minimal. Portions are to my satisfaction, too. A great experience. read more

Stopped by on a Tuesday morning around 10 AM, and it was surprisingly busy -- definitely a popular spot! I tried the tater tot hash, and it was excellent -- crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. I also got an almond latte, which was smooth and well-balanced, with just the right amount of sweetness. The atmosphere was lively, and although it was a bit crowded, the service was still friendly and efficient. A solid breakfast/brunch spot -- I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu! read more

Stopped in for a girls brunch on a Friday morning. Despite being quite busy, it had a relaxed vibe and the sever was attentive, but we didn't feel rushed as we spent time chatting and relaxing. We all had "The Classic" Benedict. It was well prepared with the requisite ham, egg, and hollandaise. It wasn't the best Eggs Benedict I've ever had, but it would rank in the top five. You have a choice of sides- I went with hash browns- they were wonderfully crispy and not oily. The coffee was tasty and our sever kept our cups full- which we appreciated. Benedict's is a great breakfast/brunch spot- I would definitely return. read more

Benedict's - "The Classic" Benedict. Yummy! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wayzata, Minnesota

We started eating breakfast at Benedict's not too long after they opened. Over the years, we have had had quite a few servers. With the exception of some trainees, they have all been quite attentive and did their jobs well, but all of them have been polite and cordial. One day, I was looking for something new, so our server, Jennifer, asked what types of food I liked. Hot? Spicy? Savory? etc. I told her what I liked and she offered up several suggestions. From that point on, whenever I was looking for something new, Jen would always have great Menu suggestions, substitutions, & add-ons which made our dining experience quite enjoyable. She also got us some great discounts through their annual Gift Card promotion, which at that time happened around late Nov / early Dec. The last thing I want to say about Benedict's is that whenever something went wrong like food being cold or not properly prepared, they have always made it right. Restaurants make mistakes every day, but the great ones always find a way to appease their clientele. In our experience, Benedict's is one of the great ones. read more

I ate breakfast here yesterday for the second time and this spot is so delightful. Fresh squeezed orange juice and amaretto oat milk iced coffee to start the day. The smoked trout Benedict and Nordeaster lobster Benedict were delicious. Benedicts are my favorite breakfast food and the smoked trout exceeded expectations. I am also a big fan of sweet potatoes and their side of such was perfect! Our server was incredibly pleasant! I was surprised to be sat immediately during Sunday brunch. read more

We had friends in town and were looking for a nice brunch place to take them to - especially one that is vegetarian friendly. We had heard good things about Benedicts in Wayzata so took a drive up to give them a shot. Don't sleep on this Western suburb restaurant. The breakfast food is banging and the service is impeccable. For vegetarians, if you take meat out of a dish they will even offer to let you sub in vegetarian options like avocado for free! Which is unheard of nowadays. We shared the Monkey Bread to start which is a traditional monkey bread, but you can get a combination of Caramel AND Cream Cheese topping. Which I highly recommend as it is decadent, sweet, and delicious. For my meal, I went with a Build Your Own Omelet. I had them throw in Jalapenos, Spinach, and Mushrooms. Was it huge? Absolutely. Did I eat it all while drinking plenty of coffee and having great laughs with friends? You know it. ____ read more

Went with friends on a Monday morning. A beautiful space with high ceilings on ground level trail space. Beautiful inviting yet warm environment. No wait for table. Parked on Lake Street . Enjoyed the chicken pesto hash with poached eggs. Over the top good with subtle flavors and just plain yummy. Others had classic Benedict's and thoroughly enjoyed. I thought their coffee from a local roaster(only commercially available) was fantastic. read more

Good Morning! Love this cute breakfast/lunch spot. We came across this place while exploring downtown Wayzata. What a gem and everything on their menu sounds amazing! I am gluten free so that's a huge plus (+) - they have gfree pancakes, bread, etc. Well since this place is called Benedict's - it would be weird not to get a Benedict. Right? I got the original Benedict with gfree bread and a side salad...which consisted of greens, Parmesan, and red wine vinaigrette. I couldn't get enough of the refreshing side salad. The Benedict was delish. Hubby got the huevos rancheros and the kiddo got the doughnuts with Nutella. Yummmm! The service was okay but nothing spectacular. The booths and tables and seating areas are super cozy! Love the high ceilings and decor. As a side note, they have their own hot sauce and their mission that is listed on the back of the hot sauce label...love it. read more

We came from CO for a wedding and found ourselves here for brunch one of the days. What a great place! Our sever was Tom and boy does he know his stuff! My man knows what to suggest and how to upsell!! He was spunky and on it. Only negative was he suggested a drink to someone and it wasn't liked by anyone at our table. He said no problem you don't have to drink it, we'll get you something different. He still charged us for the drink and it just so happened to be the most expensive drink on the menu. Would have appreciated it being taken off the check since it wasn't liked and wasn't drank. The food was delicious and the menu vast. Their theme of the menu seemed as if it was pesto because almost every dish had some sort of pesto take. Everything was Delicious! The restaurant is spacious and hip. Happy faces everywhere! Table spacing was amazing! 10/10 would recommend stopping here and then taking a walk down to the bay. read more

I tried the Benedict, meh. Muffin was cold and under toasted if at all, the thin sliced ham was cold. The side of hash browns was mushy and cold on the inside. I wasn't sure what it really was. Pancakes were satisfactory , side dish of fruit was average. I realize it's hard to run a restaurant, but this is their name and their business. It's average at best. Same with the service , average . read more

Overall, a very good breakfast at Benedict's. I ordered the traditional Eggs Benedict and it was a tasty and plentiful. My brother ordered the Chorizo Tot Hash and it was outstanding. We also ordered the Monkey Bread but it was pretty bland and somewhat disappointing. Service was great and the restaurant itself is open and very comfortable. Highly recommend if you're in the area. read more

We were able to get on the waitlist from the Yelp app and quickly seated for a group of 6 as soon as we got there which was super convenient as we had two littles with us. Husband and I ordered the monkey bread to share and got the combo which was a really great compromise cause we got to try both cream cheese and caramel flavors. I prefer my monkey bread to be more like a cinnamon roll in texture and not hard but it felt a little over baked but still yummy! I got the standard breakfast with the breakfast potatoes, bacon, scrambled eggs and the sourdough toast. The toast was thick and perfectly toasted, came with butter and a delicious strawberry jam. Came with about three pieces of bacon or so which was great! But the potatoes were really big pieces and not my fav. Service was great, atmosphere is very modern, and love the high ceilings. Beautiful restaurant!! read more

Had brunch here on a Sunday. Though I didn't make a reservation, we were seated quickly since we were willing to sit outside. The weather was fine, a little cloudy with mild breeze. The dining area inside was packed though. Teresa, our server, was energetic, attentive, and quick. The smoked trout was soo good! Very flavorful. The creaminess from the cream cheese, freshness of the dill, and hollandaise on top of the eggs all jived perfectly! read more

A cute place that appears to be downtown Wayzata. It's a very popular place, so it's best to get on the wait list. There was about an hour wait on a late Sunday morning. When coming to a place called Benedict's, someone in your group is obligated to get an eggs Benedict. I tried the Smoked Trout Benedict. It's a smoked trout cake, bell pepper, dill hollandaise sauce and green onion. It was good but not great. It was a little bit fishy for me and that lasted a good part of the day. The poached eggs were a bit over-cooked. The $13 bloody Mary's were just okay. It took almost and hour to get our food (not an exaggeration!) and that was after waiting an hour for a table. I completed two Bloody Mary's before our food even came. Maybe that was their plan? Eating here was a half-day long event. After about an hour after ordering, I told a staff member that if our food wasn't here soon, we would cash out and leave, since we had to bring someone to the airport. Our food came 30 seconds later. It would've been nice if they were a little apologetic and maybe gave us a free drink or two but nope, nothing. Pretty disappointing and for that reason, I will not be back. read more

This place fire hosts are mad nice & get the job done and food is so good and fresh, place is really clean too

Stopped by Benedict's a few weeks back while a friend was visiting for brunch. We decided that we wanted to have a special brunch near Lake Minnetonka and have heard that Benedict's is a great place to go. We made a reservation pretty last second which was great, and when we got there, we were able to request our table be outside on the patio which was excellent since the weather was so beautiful. Although Benedict's is close to the water, I have to highlight that the patio has absolutely no view of the water, although it is a still nice sidewalk patio. The menu is pretty expansive with many types of Benedict's along with other popular breakfast/brunch foods. I decided to go with one of my favorites - Gravlax Benedict. This was a decent Benedict, the egg was well cooked and there was plenty of lox which I enjoyed. There were some unusual additions which I think took away from the meal a bit - mainly the confit tomatoes. On their own, they did taste great but it was a little strange for me in the Benedict, but to each their own - I am sure this makes a lot of people extra happy. I had the side of hashbrowns, they were alright - nothing to write home about. Overall, it was a decently solid experience - definitely not very memorable, but still a good meal. read more
