Chicken and waffles
Isabelle V.

This review is long overdue, as I've been coming here since 2015 and it has consistently remained a local favorite for a breakfast that never misses. The staff is always very friendly, the food is solid, and the prices are fair, typically ranging from $9 to $18 per plate. On my most recent visit, we had the chicken and waffles, loco moco, and beignets. While the vanilla beignets are my personal favorite and the chicken was perfectly crispy, the real stars of the show were the waffles--they were incredibly crispy, sweet, and soft.

Beignets (5)
Steven T.

Don't be surprised if there's a line waiting to get in. Very popular among the locals but they offer something for everyone. The food is fresh and served quickly. A relaxing interior feels cozy. From basic breakfast to specialty dishes you can't go wrong.

Beignet
Sherica G.

Humble restaurant with good food. I have been here before and have tried a few of their breakfast. In this visit, we bought beignet as niece was craving. It was satisfying. Crisps on the outside and warm and soft on the inside.

Chicken & Waffles
Shayla T.

Cute local brunch spot! Came for a birthday party and they accommodated our group of 8 on a Sunday. Staff is attentive, cozy and homey feel. Well-maintained restaurant. Affordable pricing for delicious food! Got the chicken & waffles and country fried steak lunch. CHICKEN & WAFFLES: really great waffles. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Fried chicken was not too dry and was flavorful COUNTRY FRIED STEAK LUNCH: the gravy is a bit salty but the salad balanced it out well. The salad dressing was a basic olive oil balsamic vinaigrette. The fries were thin and crispy My boyfriend and I got there early and ordered a mimosa for the birthday girl, which our waitress told us to just give us a signal and she would bring out. Our waitress was kind enough to also bring out some treats for the birthday girl: dessert beignets! Would recommend!!

Orange Juice

People say that it's a hidden gem, which is quite true because it's hard to find the location of the spot and not many people seem to know this place unless they tell their friends about it. The place looks really small, crowded, and decorative inside but if you walk more towards the back, there's probably more seatings. I honestly expect this place to be packed where I have to wait for more than 20 minutes, but again, it doesn't really seem to receive a lot of attention. Honestly, the food is good and portion size is neither too small nor big. Usually, some restaurants serve bigger portions. At least I didn't get full though and save my stomach for lunch. I was quite surprised when the pancake combo is $11 ($9 before 9am) while three-stack is $12.50. Price is quite reasonable due to portion size. The issue is when I needed my change after paying for the meal. I guess that either the staff forgot about it or some miscommunication. Not sure though, but they seem to be very busy, which I understand. I was expecting them to get it as soon as I pay for it, but went straight to doing other tasks.

Crab Cake Benedict
Kerry R.

You really can't go wrong starting with some warm beignets, soo good! I had the crab cake Benedict, and as a bit of a Benedict connoisseur, I loved it. It was delicious! I also love that you have the option of either a side of rice or potatoes. I opted for the potatoes this time. It had been years since we last ate here, but we'll definitely be back much sooner this time.

Chicken & Waffles, Korean Barbeque Lunch Special Bow and Chocolate 5 Piece Beignets
Cathy D.

This used to be my goto breakfast place back when I lived in the Bay. The staff is always very nice and accommodating. Giving out recommendations and small talk. My favorite goto items is the chicken and waffles and their Beef Korean Bowl. The korean bowl comes with veggies, rice and rhe meat. They also give you their own type of bibimbap sauce. Which gives a whole other level of flavors. Also, their serving sizes are good and fillings. Today I tried their chocolate beignets for the first time. And they were pretty good. But I think next time I'll stick to the Vanilla flavor.

Eggs Benedict Chicken & Waffles
Megan C.

This place is a Union City staple. Known for their Beignets and them being small business has helped it uped its traffic. I think place is nice, small but a great breakfast place. Priced are good compared to other places. Ambiance is feels cozy like they put their personality into it. What I got : Eggs Benedict 4/5 Beignets : 4/5 Garlic fries 5/5 Chicken and Waffles 4/5 Eggs Benedict has 2 muffins, 3 eggs, and 3 Canadian Bacon, served with potatoes. I thought it was good but I felt like the potatoes could of been more crispy Beignets were nice but felt like they could of been more fluffy. We did it with a drizzle with both chocolate sauce and vanilla sauce. Garlic fries were really good, lots of garlic and nice and crispy My friend got the chicken and Waffles. Both were nice and crispy.

Such a gem of a small, family-run business! My husband and I stopped by Break Your Fast on a whim while exploring new local spots, and we're so glad we did. The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming, and you can tell they put a lot of care into what they do. While the beignets weren't quite the traditional fluffy style I expected--they leaned more biscuit-like in texture--they were still tasty. If you try them, definitely go for the homemade vanilla sauce--it's rich, creamy, and pulls it all together. My favorite, though, was the fruit cup. I'm usually not into melon-heavy mixes, so I was thrilled to see one full of fresh berries instead. It was refreshing and felt like a step above your typical fruit side. If you're looking to support a passionate local team and enjoy some creative, comforting breakfast bites, Break Your Fast is absolutely worth the visit.

*New Item!* Loco Moco

We came in on Sunday and were given our choice of seating. The waitress was really kind and welcoming. Immediately took our drink orders and let us look over the menu. Unfortunately the second waitress wasn't as kind or welcoming. She seemed impatient and a bit dismissive of us despite there being no other patrons. We ordered a loco moco, garlic fries, chicken & waffles and a side of kimchi. The garlic fries were super oily but had a lot of garlic on it and were crispy. The loco moco was really disappointing with the small patty and white gravy??? Loco moco in my opinion can not be served without brown gravy. I did put a piece of kimchi with every bite just to help hide the lack of flavor in the gravy and texture and it was perfect. Kimchi is for sure authentic Korean kimchi, perfectly sour and crunchy. The chicken and waffles really left little to the imagination. Chicken was like a katsu cutlet, dry, overcooked and a bit lacking. The waffles were small and only crispy. Weren't very fluffy inside and overall the meal was dry without the maple syrup. We were maybe half way to a 3 quarters way through our meal when we were a bit abruptly brought our check. At this point there's only 1 other table with customers and we were at a 3 star review trajectory. The middle aged Korean woman who we hadn't seen at all during our meal checked in on us then just dropped the check while we were happily eating and chatting. Out of the 3 staff members we encountered, 1 was absolutely perfect and polite and nice. The other 2 were really working against the team with the lacking service and premature check delivery. I would've come back until that happened. There's better breakfast spots in union city, Fremont and Newark area.

I had the country breakfast! It was very tasty!
Sir C.

The food was great. I enjoyed the Good service and enjoyed the music Playlist. I have visited for the 2nd time. I like the early bird special!

We came here for breakfast as we were passing through Fremont and I love the Niles area…read more The drinks we were got were good but a little too sweet for me. My boyfriend got the fried chicken steak plate and it was good and a really big portion. I got the spicy chicken melt and it was really good and tasty plus really big portion. We also shared the beignets that come in different flavors and they were fluffy and really good. Altogether a solid breakfast spot.

It doesn't hurt to smile!…read more Firstly, I'm happy to say that the food and portions are amazing over here. If you want to eat at a place that has good quality and a big enough portion to either share or take home for leftovers then this is the place to go. There were some notable things that we stumbled across in our dining experience. I had noticed that one of the utensils wasn't washed properly so there was a dried up piece of vegetable or something stuck on it. Also I requested my burger to be cooked medium but when I received my order, it was more so well done with no pink in the middle. One of the two pork chop was cooked great, while the other was a little dry and chewy. Regardless, these were things that didn't warrant calling over a server. The thing that mainly put a stain for our restaurant outing at Skillet'z was the service. Upon walking in we were not greeted with a friendly welcoming and when seated they quickly walked away. The lady who took our order did not even look like she wanted to be there, granted I understand that nobody really enjoys having to go to work but if you need to interact with customers, maybe this isn't the occupation for you. While we were eating there was not a single time that anyone came up to us to ask us how we were doing, if we needed anything, or how the food was. There was a moment where it was someone's birthday at another table and I don't think I've ever heard a more unenthusiastic and monotone announcement for a birthday and a lame excuse for a birthday song. They're not going to bother with dropping off a check/bill for the meal so you need to go up to the counter to pay for the food. Once you step up to the counter keep in mind that more than likely you will encounter a rude interaction and a feeling that you were inconveniencing them. Overall I'll more than likely eat from here again, primarily for the food. But maybe next time we'll consider just taking out to go.

Her smile was worth a visit too.

A Place I Keep Coming Back To…read more I've been to Texas Roadhouse many times over the years--I just never remembered to take photos until this visit. For me, Texas Roadhouse isn't about finding the most expensive or most luxurious steak. It's about getting together with family or friends, enjoying a cold beer, sharing great appetizers, and having a relaxed meal without breaking the bank. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect from a classic American steakhouse. It's lively, energetic, and always feels welcoming. I also love the open kitchen and the hand-cut steak display when you walk in. Watching the staff prepare fresh steaks adds to the whole experience. One thing I miss is the old bucket of complimentary peanuts. They now come in individual bags, which is definitely cleaner and more hygienic, but I do miss that old-school Texas Roadhouse tradition. The warm fresh-baked rolls with cinnamon butter are still incredible. Honestly, I could probably eat an entire basket before my entrée arrives. My must-order items every single visit: Steak The steaks are consistently good. Are they premium steakhouse quality? No. But they're cooked well, seasoned properly, and offer excellent value for the price. That's exactly why I keep coming back. Cactus Blossom (The Giant Onion Appetizer) This is an absolute MUST. It's surprisingly difficult to find restaurants that serve an onion appetizer this size anymore. Most places either offer onion rings or a much smaller blooming onion. Texas Roadhouse's Cactus Blossom is enormous, beautifully presented, and fried to a perfect golden crisp. Every petal stays crunchy while the onion inside remains sweet and tender. Pair it with their signature dipping sauce, and it's the perfect appetizer to share over drinks. If you're visiting for the first time, don't skip it. It has become one of the signature dishes that keeps me ordering it every visit. Fried Catfish Another item I highly recommend. Crispy on the outside, moist and flaky inside, and surprisingly light. It goes perfectly with a cold beer and good conversation. Loaded Baked Potato Simple but done right--loaded with sour cream, cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and butter. Comfort food at its best. One thing that deserves special recognition is the service. Every visit, the servers have been friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Drinks are refilled before you even have to ask, and they frequently check in without being intrusive. Great service makes a huge difference, and the staff here consistently delivers. They're absolutely the kind of servers who deserve a generous tip. At the end of the day, Texas Roadhouse isn't trying to compete with high-end steakhouses--and that's perfectly fine. It knows exactly what it is: a fun, casual American steakhouse where people gather to enjoy good food, cold beer, and great company. The steak is consistently good, the portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, the service is excellent, and the overall experience keeps me coming back. I'll definitely be back again. Highly recommended.

Sharing the tri-tip steak and eggs with my daughter. And an ube latte, ube matcha iced coffee and mango matcha. When it comes to the Bay Area's ube drinks, I'm always let down and I surprise myself when I do order it. Like tell me I'm lying when Starbucks' ube was a massive fail for me as a Filipino. Post- meal: steak was medium rare and juicy. My younger daughter was in heaven with her tri-tip and A1. Country potatoes were well seasoned. My daughter had club sandwich which she ate voraciously. She's not typically a sandwich person so this was a good sign! Our specialty drinks. Now, with the ube. The ube foam had the tiniest hint of ube flavor but it was more of a purple foam and didn't satisfy my craving. My younger daughter had the ube matcha and although she liked the ube foam, she kept asking me to ask for more because her drink only tasted like matcha. It was more of the same for my daughter who thought there wasn't enough mango in the mango matcha. If we don't finish our drinks, we usually take it home to go but we decided to leave ours. It's not enough to have a good presentation of specialty coffee drinks but the taste leaves one wanting. I want them to do good. There are better foams and syrups out there. Check out the syrup that Porto's uses for their ube matcha. There's great small batch syrups as well. Our waiter was lovely. You get the sense that this is possibly his family's business. If not, he definitely had pride in this restaurant and his work which leads me to believe that I would give this place a try again to eat their food and see if they've improved their coffee menu.

My ultimate birthday go-to for fresh seafood and steak!…read more Market Broiler Fremont has been my absolute go-to spot for birthday celebrations for years. When you want a consistently great meal to celebrate a special occasion, this place always delivers a solid 4-star experience. Here is why it keeps winning out over other chain options: The Apps to Start: You have to start with the appetizers here. They bring out that warm, fresh sourdough bread to the table which is dangerous because it's so good. Pairing that with their classic seafood apps like the crisp calamari or a shrimp cocktail sets the perfect tone for a birthday dinner. Fresh Fish & Steaks: For the main course, their menu hits the perfect balance. The fresh fish is always cooked beautifully, flaky, and high-quality. If you're looking for land instead of sea, their steaks are consistently juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. The Vibe: Sitting in the Pacific Commons location makes for a great, lively atmosphere that feels celebratory without being overly stuffy. It's a reliable local favorite that never fails for a birthday dinner. Great food, solid portions, and always a great time!

I've probably ordered that exact combination over a thousand times, and Country Way in Fremont makes it better than anyone.

The country fried potatoes were outstanding--crispy and golden on the outside, yet soft and almost creamy on the inside. They're the kind of breakfast potatoes that are so good you end up finishing every last bite. The staff is warm and friendly, making the place feel like a neighborhood institution rather than just another breakfast spot. One thing I also love is the building itself. Country Way is housed in a wonderfully preserved vintage A-frame that feels like a trip back to a different era. Instead of chasing trendy, it embraces its history, and that charm is part of the experience.
