It took a couple minutes for someone to even greet us, but they were busy. Someone sat us in the room behind the counter. We ordered the crab lobster Benedict with house potatoes and a side of biscuits and gravy and scrambled eggs with sausage/bacon and side of fruit. The bacon was really good. Everything was great. A great little breakfast spot. Street parking, we came on a Monday so we didn't have a problem looking for parking but I'm sure on the weekend it's crazy. Will definitely be back.

Came back with the whole family this time. We sat in the table side of the restaurant. Note, if you…read morelove music, you can't hear it on this side of the restaurant very well. 1. Maple Sage Fried Chicken. My favorite! The chicken is uniquely textured and the sweet sage flavor really makes it stand out. As a person who is actually not a big breakfast food fan, I think this dish has the right balance of breakfast hashbrowns, toast, and eggs mixed with "regular food," the chicken. 2. The strawberries and cream stuffed French toast was pretty good. One of my daughters had this dish and enjoyed it. 3. The house pancakes. My wife thought she has had much better classic pancakes at Orphan and Sunnyside, but they were decent. Probably would not get again. Great service as always. Thanks, guys, for a great start to a day of farmers market venturing (right next door).

He was awesome throughout and made sure we were happy throughout. I was hoping the food would match the level of our waiter, but it was just fine. I wouldn't go out of my way to say that the food was amazing. I got a shakshuka, and it was solid. I've had better before. Additionally, I ordered a Spicy Ahi Tuna Poke to share, and it was ok. It was very forgettable; I'd skip that. Overall, because of the attention we were shown, good experience.

The location is solid, it's in the heart of midtown near many other restaurants and businesses…read more They do have their own parking lot but it's very small and I believe you do have to pay. There is plenty of paid street parking nearby. The interior of the restaurant feels hipster and fresh. The host and servers were very friendly. They offered their insight on what menu items we should order. I will say our food took forever to come out. We were only a party of 7 so I guess I can see why but it easily felt like 30 minutes for our meal to arrive. Some dishes came out way after the others came out. I wasn't really feeling anything on the menu. I ended up getting a dish that I normally wouldn't try since it seemed lol my best option. The Po Boy was actually a pleasant surprise. It was crunchy and its flavor complimented the bread nicely. The ranch made the pickled onions pop and it was a decent sandwich size too. The fries were warm and crunchy. The prices are about average for a 2026 brunch spot. I'd say expect to walk out of here for about ~$35+ for a meal for two. I don't really have anything negative to say about my meal or experience here except for how long our meal took to arrive. And for that, I had to deduct a star. Bottom line/TLDR: great shrimp sandwiches!

I went to Old Soul Co. in Sacramento and tried the matcha with oat milk, naturally sweetened with…read morehoney. It was a solid 9.5/10 for me. Smooth, not too sweet, and definitely something I'd order again. They also have dairy free options, which I appreciated, and a vegetarian breakfast burrito that was actually really good. I'm always happy when a place has more than one vegetarian option instead of making me survive off vibes and a pastry The staff was honestly a whole vibe too. They were patient, went over all the matcha options with me, and we ended up laughing because the cashier wasn't sure which dairy-free milk would be best. His coworker came over like, "Of course oat milk," and I was like, bet, let's do it Staff gets a 10/10 from me. One thing to know...if you enter through the parking lot, the shop is toward the back and can be a little hidden, so keep going. Overall, really good experience. I'd definitely be back.

Local favorite dive bar and hole-in-the-wall spot in Midtown!…read more Ambience: Casual, local dive bar with a fun, laid-back atmosphere. Parking: Challenging paid street parking. I recommend trying O Street or P Street, about 2 blocks away. Price: Very cheap and reasonable for the Midtown area. They're open daily from 6am to 2am, which is pretty amazing. You can even get a full breakfast and morning Jell-O shots while watching games and socializing. Recommended FOODS: * Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs: A crowd favorite for breakfast, served with lots of gravy. * Night Tacos: Super popular and cheap ground beef or chicken tacos. * Hot Wings: Done just right and extra crispy. Recommended DRINKS: * Bloody Mary * Morning Jell-O Shots * Mimosas * Craft beers on tap: 19 selections A fun spot if you're looking for a casual local dive bar, especially for an early breakfast or late-night food and drinks.

Well, the meat was cold and it seemed like all that was done was fry the tortilla. We explained the food was cold and instead of ensuring the meat was warm, Mike stuck the food in the microwave - with the lettuce, tomato, and cheese! Now the server, Shana, gets 5 stars. She was understanding and apologized when we said the meat was cold AND after it was put into the microwave. I feel like Shana knows customer service.

Meaning he overcooks everything! The eggs were burnt and so were the potatoes. There was no seasoning on the potatoes, but they were edible. The eggs were not so I sent them back. They offered to remake them, but I won't give an incompetent cook a second chance to screw it up. The other big offense in a kitchen is improperly seasoning the food. They have deviled eggs with bacon crumbles on top, but they whipped something really offensive into the egg yolk filling. It was gross. I'll try lunch or supper here, but with breakfast so horribly screwed up, it doesn't look promising. Service was excellent in spite of the revolting food.

I'm coming back again to try more menu items. Everything I've eaten so far has been really good. My husband ordered a Thai tea and he enjoyed that. I got a Bloody Mary. It was too spicy and I didn't taste any alcohol. I can't believe how beautiful the grounds are. Lots of fountains and plants. It's crazy how this is all hidden and it's on Broadway!

They made what would be just basic fruit and eggs taste glorious. We had a few nice conversations with Holly, who had owned the B&B for about 3 years at the time. She told us a little bit about the history of the block and the B&B itself. It's a nice touch to have coffee delivered to the room each morning. Our room, the Dickenson, was a bit dusty when we first arrived. When we complained, it was quickly and mostly remedied. The weirdest part of the room, though, was that the bathroom had no real door - just a curtain. I just don't see why the door was excluded. That being said, the bathroom had a large jacuzzi, which I wish I had used more. It was a treat!

Okay, let's get into the food now. Everything here is delicious, quality, and filling. From the eggs, to the potatoes, to the pancakes, everything here is a classic diner, breakfast experience, but elevated. Speaking of pancakes, get them. Especially if they have the blueberry + lemon ones. So fluffy, decadent, sweet, and satisfying. Some of the best that I've had. Service is also fantastic. Our waitress brought excellent service and such fun, upbeat energy. Bacon & Butter is a 5-star breakfast spot that lives up to the hype and is worth the wait if you have time to kill. I'm so glad that we stopped here!

Drove an hour out excited to try this spot, but it unfortunately didn't live up to the hype. Since…read morethe lines were so long, I opted for takeout instead, though it still took a good 25 minutes to get my order. Once I got home, I was eager to dig into the lemon poppyseed flapjacks--especially since they were hyped up as their specialty--only to find out they were packed without any syrup! Honestly, even with syrup, it was easily the plainest pancake I've ever had. The rest of the food was equally disappointing: Breakfast Burrito: Generous size, but mostly packed with cheese and very little meat. Grilled Cheese Benedict: Completely overcooked. It feels like one of those places that lost its quality control and started rushing things as they got busier. Definitely a disappointing experience and not worth the hour-long drive or the wait.
