Reall cute place with a great selection of choices to choose from on the menu. The service was very fast and they are flexible with orders. I liked the curved windows that gave the place a vintage style. Definitely coming back! read more

I love the breadth and depth of the menu. So many options, so little time. I also love a fresh juice when I'm not sure what else's I want to eat. On top of great foods and choices, the service is friendly with a solid family vibe. You want more? I don't know where here to send you! read more

On an outing with my son and we were starving. Decided to come to this cafe for its Apple Dutch Baby. It's a local spot by the freeway, and close to the civic center. We had a breakfast burrito, the spinach and mushroom omelette and the Dutch Baby. Service was great. We were seated right away and either the waitress or server were quick to tend to our needs My son devoured the burrito, filled with eggs, cheese, potatoes, the kitchen sink! I very much enjoyed the wild mushrooms and spinach in my omelette. The potatoes on the side were good, the plating simple, but overall a good meal. The Dutch Baby was tender and filled with warm cinnamon apples. We took a few bites and brought the rest home for the family to enjoy. It was a fun treat to see on the menu. read more

ROSEMARY'S CHICK 19.00 All-natural chicken breast marinated in garlic & rosemary with sauteed spinach, caramelized onions, mushrooms & Swiss cheese Ordered the above. The Crepe was watered down, tasteless. The filling consisted of hard pieces of fried chicken along with the other ingredients. There was not a hint of garlic or rosemary flavor. I was disappointed. When the waiter came around I said so. His surprised response was 'No there is not rosemary or garlic, that's just it's name.' !!! For $12 this dish maybe acceptable. Certainly not for $19. Total ripoff. read more

Sunday morning around 10 Am is wild in there. Parking lot sucks but thats not their fault. The service and food is fast, but never did they make us feel rushed. Food was great, especially the potatoes. Come early because it gets packed and loud. read more

First time trying this place and it's was actually really good! The people were really nice and it was super clean. The waitress was super on top of it for being only one person taking orders and checking in on everyone. The food was super fast being sent out, warm, and super delicious! I ordered the biscuits and gravy vegetarian style with a egg on top. Very tasty and flavorful! I'd definitely come back again! read more

Brother's Cafe is my favorite every weekend breakfast place. It can get pretty packed if you come late so we try to go on the earlier side. I've enjoyed everything I've gotten there from their Dutch Apple, to crepes, to omelettes, my BF likes their chilaquiles and their huevro rancheros. I know they have a drive through but we've never used it, I'm not sure how it works because it's not like their food is that quick to make. The service is always top knotched. There's one guy who has the drive-thru headphones on and still walks around making sure everyone's coffee cup is full. They're also great with customizations. We've requested them to make certain omelettes for us and they always will do it. Love this place read more

Food was good. Service was fast. Place was clean. I got a pastrami sandwich and I loved the sourdough bread they used! I was surprised to have lettuce and tomatoes and onions on a warm pastrami sandwich but it made it less heavy. My husband got biscuits and gravy and said his biscuits were hard. That's what prevented the 5 stars. Overall, cool little locally owned spot. I love supporting small business so I'd say check it out! read more

We arrived at around 12pm with a party of 5 and it was busy but despite that, we were greeted and seated within 5 minutes or less. The waiter asked what we wanted to drink and came back with our drinks within 5minutes! Then took our orders. Our food arrived so fast! I'd say we waited about 10-15minutes. The place is so laid back and chill. Almost as if you're eating at your family members house. The food is so good and the service is amazing. I will definitely be going back! read more

This place is fantastic. Whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or carnivore they have something good for you. Came in early on a Thursday morning. Busy but not yet crowded at 7:30. Greeted immediately, seated, asked about drinks and my coffee and water came right away. They have a full selection of sweeteners from raw sugar to stevia. Extra bonus was they have oat milk on request. A selection of three hot sauces (love that), ketchup, salt & pepper, butter, strawberry jam and half and half on each table. Place is clean, with lots of natural light from the windows. Booths around the perimeter, tables in the middle and even a counter with stools along half of one wall. For sports fans there are two tvs playing - I like that they don't have the sound on for those of us who are not sports fans. Order the chilaquiles adding carne asada, fresh jalapeños and asked for the eggs to be over hard. Order came out just right with plenty of steak, fresh salsa, generous amount of avocado and jalapeños. They checked in regularly offering coffee refills, but never felt rushed. Didn't finish the generous portion and they have good compostable togo containers, another plus. Great efficient service, very good food, getting special orders correct, all in a clean, inviting, no frills space checks all the boxes for an excellent place to eat. read more

We come here on Sunday. They are busy but we can get in without any wait. I have my mind set for The Dutch Baby after seeing the pictures, 15 min to make so order it early if you want to try. I enjoy the Dutch baby but I'm not a pancake girl. Services are fast for us. Good experiences! read more

I always see Brothers Cafe and wanted to give them a try. I ordered the fresh guacamole, short stack pancakes, two eggs and home potatoes. The eggs and potatoes were good and I enjoyed the guacamole. The customer service was on top of everything. I see them constantly refilling the condiments to make sure customers have a full bottle. Looking forward to trying more restaurants in Santa Rosa :) read more

Great food great service and amazing atmosphere. Food is solid and they even have a drive through if you are feeling like a quick grab and go. If you are looking for the classic breakfast food this place delivers, but the whole menu is great. I think the breakfast sandwich is one thing of the best values in Santa Rosa. Turkey sandwich is also killer !!! read more

Fast service a food order to table. Restaurant is pretty cold inside. Probably warms up as it gets to a popular dinner time. Two of us ordered duck burgers and I tried a bite of my friends. It's was seriously good! I would go back. I ordered a piccata dish with potatoes. I was underwhelmed. The piccata sauce tasted like white wine with a hint of lemon. It needs balance. The potatoes were not tasty. But I would go back and order that duck burger! read more

Good, but not as good as I wanted it to be. I was so thrilled to learn it had the same owners as Hole In The Wall, but disappointed that the quality was not up to par. I ordered the smoked salmon benedict. Unfortunately, the salmon was very mid-quality. The tomatoes on the benedict were underripe, colorless, cold, and flavorless. The English muffin was quite soggy from the beginning. The potatoes were PERFECT and were excellent with the hollandaise sauce. My wife got the crab benedict. It was tastier. Worth $23+? No. In the end, the two benedicts, a coffee, and an orange juice set us back almost $70 after a 20% tip. This is an outrageous price to pay for a diner brunch, even for salmon and a small portion of crabmeat. read more

Brothers Café is located in an old fast food restaurant. The restaurant itself is clean and comfortable. The service was very good. The weight staff was very attentive and frequently asked if we needed refills of water or coffee. I had the steak salad for lunch and the blueberry milkshake. The milkshake was thick and creamy. They use fresh blueberries. Steak salad was very tasty. The steak was cooked perfectly to my order, medium rare. It was nicely seasoned. The salad itself was mixed greens. I'm not a great fan of mixed greens and salad was a perfect example of why. The greens were not in small bite-size pieces and where messy to eat. In addition to the greens, steak and tortilla strips. There were sharp, red onions, and soggy water chestnut. The water chestnut distracted from the salad. It did not seem fresh. I would strongly recommend to be omitted from the salad in the future. Dressing was nice and light. Thank you for the service and food. read more

Came here for dinner last night but already want to go back again for breakfast! Attentive service, no need to wonder where's your waiter even though customers were steadily coming in throughout my visit. Upon scanning through the menu, I noticed they have bison and duck burgers. Rarely do I find a wide range of meat options which I found impressive. I went with the Philly Cheesesteak and fries. Brother's Cafe does not hold out on providing a sufficient amount of steak within my sandwich. Only downfall I found was that the fries were seasoned and I'm not sure if the menu mentions that. Their salads were pretty good as well. My Cesar salad came with tortilla strips which I liked but opted out of the tomatoes. I'm a really picky eater even at adult age. While enjoying dinner, I noticed a couple of car flying into the parking lot. I was wondering if they're really hungry and just wanted to come quickly come inside. Nope, they have a drive-through which I found impressive. I asked about it and they told me yes it's open & you could even call your meals in and pick them up through there. My eyes lit up 'cause I refuse to pay for those expensive delivery fees and increased menu items when I'm hungry, but I'd go through a drive-through where I could remain in my vehicle. So they sold me on that and I'll definitely will be back. read more

We were seated right away. It took about 10 minutes to have our order taken. This place was slammed when we got here so it was understandable. The service was good throughout the meal. I ordered the ham Benedict. It was very underwhelming. The hollandaise was very good. However the ham was one single very thin piece of the type of deli sliced ham that you'd buy prepackaged from a grocery store. If you are going to use that type of ham I would expect like 4-5 slices. The potatoes were cold and bland. They lacked seasoning and had a funky flavor that reminded me of old fry oil. Some of the neighboring tables food looked pretty good. read more

Ample parking, good attitude staff and we went by there because I hadn't eaten there since it changed hands and they have a Happy Hour specials during the week. We ordered the Guacamole and chips and street tacos and I had a beer while Mike had a strawberry margarita. The drinks were good and the guacamole was excellent and there was a good amount of meat on the street tacos! The staff came over to check on us a few times and they were overall a good happy group of people happy doing their jobs! Which is a thing post pandemic because you can't always say that!! read more

Pretty cool place. Service is okay but they get busy with the drive through. The food was really delicious, I got the steak salad and there was much more steak than I was expecting. There were some interesting characters in there, who made the experience a bit less charming. read more

I'm sorry to say the hotdog I ordered for my ailing husband came smothered in mayo, even though I asked for mustard to be primary with only a little mayo - and there was no mustard on it nor a packet provided. Asked for onions on the side- meaning raw - they were grilled. Also ordered a root beer but wasn't given it & had to go back inside, while the food was cooling. Had good experiences previously but not today. I only give 3 stars because they are very nice. read more

Ordered Biscuits and Gravy and they were cold, stale and bland without flavor. The scrambled eggs were almost a folded omelet off a hot griddle instead of scrambled. Wait staff was attentive but didn't make up for the food. Find somewhere else for breakfast. read more

I'll be honest ..this place doesn't have much curb appeal but the food and service are excellent. I had driven by numerous times but the Wendy's drive thru vibe kept me from stopping until some friends said it's worth stopping for - and they were right. We can't wait to go back. read more

What can I say, Yelp steered me to this place and I loved it. Very busy, bustling even. Seated immediately at a tiny two top right in the thick of the dining room. Service was efficient but didn't linger to chat. Husband ordered a pancake combo with eggs and bacon, while I had the Rosemary's chicken crepe, prepared with buckwheat flour (+2 for gf) and a green salad side. Well, this may have been one of my favorite dishes of the entire two week vacation. Tender chicken, specialty mushrooms of great variety, rosemary, of course! I kept eating and eating. Husband's breakfast was good too, but this buckwheat crepe dish was special. Thanks Brothers! read more

Decent experience but not the best place I would recommend you visit if you're looking for a good brunch in Santa Rosa When we first arrived, it felt like a pretty casual experience especially since they looked pretty busy. However, the service was pretty quick and we got our food only a few minutes after ordering. The ambiance was pretty chill and felt very welcoming with the music/energy of the servers. The food here is honestly not the best. Most of what we ordered lacked flavor and tasted very unseasoned. The tap water also had a very weird taste. Here are my food reviews: Avocado Crab Benedict (6/10) -- lacked flavor and was semi expensive for what you received. But very good serving size. Fun Guys Omelette (8/10) -- was a good combination of ingredients but also lacked good seasoning. Chicken Wings (6/10) lacked seasoning and tasted like defrosted/old. It also tasted very dry. read more

Here I am again, reviewing Huevos Rancheros. Paula and I had to file a small claim suit against the La Rose hotel for abuse of me, an autistic man. We were graced with server Brian, who had a Dodger hat on, so of course I told him about the time I saw Fernando Valenzuela's no-hitter, and then I told him about my obsession with the Mexican breakfast treat. While Paula filled up court paperwork, I enjoyed some of the best Huevos Rancheros I've had, and I've had thousands of them. He was kind and patient and put up with my weirdness. I even did some dancing, and instead of eating, we also treated this wonderful man who bought a homemade trike named "The Bitch". Brian came out to see it, and in my autistic way, I claimed it as my stuffies. Paula and I now have a new breakfast spot. Everybody was wonderful, and it was the kind of day that I needed - a lot of love. Thank you so much. read more

First visit here and it hit the 5 stars on every aspect. Small seating area so we thought it would be a long wait on a Sunday mid-morning, but we were seated within a few minutes. During that time I was just watching how they kept this place clean, almost OCD watching on guy who went over 1 table 3 times ensuring it was clean. Food was DELICIOUS!!! I ate every single piece with flakes, and it was just perfect. My grandson got full and insisted on taking the remains home because it was that good. Staff very personable -and very keen on watching tables, filling drinks, etc. This will highly likely make my list of places I will return! Warning - it is loud but food and service is worth it. Bonus - two large screen TVs to watch Sunday football! read more

Okay what an unexpected fabulous Breakfast on our road trip. This spot has a drive through?!? We stopped for breakfast as we drove through one morning. Small cafe with friendly staff. Selling local art on the walls too! I love these joints. We tried the Dutch Baby ( takes a good 15 minutes, noted on the menu) and what a delightful eggy soufflé style Apple pancake ... crispy edges but fluffy and ......moist...:). Highly recommend this sweet treat, it's big and shareable! They have several short rib items on the menu ( they do it all B,L,D) we tried the short rib hash and opted to change the poached eggs to OM. The home made biscuit isn't your typical soft biscuit. This reminded me of grandmas southern flakey, shortbread type bread. You could taste the lard in this dense biscuit that was great with the strawberry jam. Pretty sure it's not " healthy" but it's another indulgence for cheat day! If you're about healthy options there are some nice salads on the menu too! I'd stop here again when I'm in the Santa Rosa area. 100% read more

I like this place for its wide-ranging menu with lots of options. Love the French Dip. What I do not like is that the French fries NEVER come out crispy!!!! I usually forget to ask ahead for that and then I have to return my plate to the kitchen to have them go back in the fryer. Who likes limp fries and why can't they get this right? The other big minus is the glass of water they bring...giant plastic glasses with plastic straws. Wastes water and plastic which goes to landfill. This is California, let's show our respect for resources and the environment. A glass of water does not require a straw. read more

I really wanted to like this place. The place was very clean and I was impressed that the condiment bottles were filled and new. The waitstaff was very friendly and attentive. The food on the other was just alright. The marinated steak salad was not worth $20. The soy sauce marinated steak was decent but I couldn't get over having tortilla strips and water chestnut on my salad. I would be better with wonton wrapper strips as the salad seems to be Asian inspired. My boyfriend had the surf and turf pasta which he said was tasty but not worth $23 as the portion was too small for the price. Maybe the breakfast is better? read more

The menu was pretty extensive so hard to decide. We ended up with lamb burger and duck burger...both with added goat cheese, grilled mushrooms and grilled onions. The patties for both burgers were thin and tightly packed which made the meat a bit more tough. Both were a little dry. I'm glad I ordered the extra goat cheese and grilled onions & mushrooms...added more moisture and flavor (and $$). Overall- just an ok burger. read more

I like this place well enough. We went for a late Sunday brunch. My friend ordered the crab Benedict which looked amazing & I ordered the brisket hash no eggs with gluten free toast. The brisket flavor was spot on delicious but the potatoes weren't cooked. They were greasy on the outside, both mushy & quite firm in the middle. The single slice of half burned gluten free toast was $2. For $2 there should be 2 slices. I buy gf bread & it does not cost $2 a slice. If I didn't have to eat it I wouldn't. There was a busser who kept showing up & reaching across the table & our conversation to replenish various items. At one point he set his tray down & reached across twice. He did it about 3 times. I will try again. read more

I am a fan of the Hole in the Wall in Sebastopol, and have been going there for years, so when I saw the same owners had opened a new spot in Santa Rosa, I was really excited to try it. I was able to go recently, and have to say, I think they have outdone themselves! I think Brothers Cafe is even better! The remodel on the space is great - they have opened it up, and it feels more spacious and light. They also have kept the drive-through open - so it is possible to order in advance and pick up food to go! I had the chilaquiles, which were amazing! The chips, the salsa, and the fixin's made for one of the best chilaquiles I have ever had. My partner had the Wild Mushroom Omelette and loved it. The potatoes were awesome - toasty, crunchy, and creamy - I don't know how they make them so tasty! We also got a Dutch Baby (which is like a custard and a crepe, with fresh cinnamon and apple sauce) which was also spectacular. We mostly got that to go, knowing our portions would be big, but we managed to eat half of it before we left anyway. They maintain the typical awesome service, great food, and now a more convenient and comfortable location! The personalize and super-friendly service just make it even better! We are very excited to have them in Santa Rosa now - it's one of our favorite places for breakfast/brunch - but their sandwiches and entrees are also spectacular. For brunch, check out the hash - it's freshly made and amazing! Also, the burgers are outstanding. It's tough to go wrong here - they take a pretty common menu, and make it uncommonly good! If you haven't been - give them a try! read more
