    Kitchen entrance

    Decent Old Time breakfast joint. Vinyl seated booths, wood paneling and a 60's vibe to the menu are kinda charming. Friendly & quick service, served up a Ham and Cheddar omelette and an over eggs breakfast for the little woman. The requested well done hashbrowns were medium at best. My omelette was a little dry, but not bad. House made Hot sauce mixed with the ketchup was good. I believe we've had better meals at Katrina's or Nancy's in town.

    what a quaint little "hole in the wall" restaurant in Historic Auburn, Ca. John Travolta filmed some of the 90's classic Phenomenon here. Their Omlettes are absolutely delicious!!! Coffee good too! Friendly Customer Service. We will definitely be back!!!

    This place and the food is older than "old skool". It's a throwback to the early 1960's. I do know, I was 13 years old when the Beatles landed in New York (1964) to play on the Ed Sullivan TV show. Back to this here restaurant. It's funky in a non-threatening way. The vinyl seats in the booths are torn to $#i+. The bath rooms look like they haven't been scrubbed in decades. The wall board above the men's room sink is crumbling. The floor in front of the toilet is sticky with dried urine. Okay you get the picture. The owner and the service staff are welcoming and friendly. The dining room was 3/4 full at 10:30am. Obviously all of them were Auburn locals as the service folks were addressing every one of them by first name. The offerings are all the diner food choices you will find at most places that are also locked into a menu from 60 years ago. My loco moco ($18.95) was merely okay. I spend 8 weeks / year on Kauai and O'ahu. I've eaten 100's of loco moco meals. The one here is did not send me into a rapture. Frankly, it as pretty mediocre. I eat at a lot of mom n' pops restaurants. Expensive ones, cheap ones, trendy ones, urban ones, out in the boonies ones. Have had some amazing meals. Many forgettable ones. I hope to forget my experience here soon. I love Auburn. Will endeavor to visit other places that offer brunch. I suggest that you do as well. Unless you are born n' raised in Auburn and this place is in your DNA.

    Yes Sammy is still doing her thing at Edelweiss serving up the best breakfast! Enjoyed the Bacon and eggs with extra bacon and the number 43 omelette.

    Great small town feel restaurant. As place name house of omelets suggests, the omelets here are great! A lot of choices also. Service is friendly too. Omelet I had was delicious and the pineapple waffle too! Great place to stop and eat if in the area!

    Classic old school diner. Fast and friendly service. Food was reasonably priced, hot, and fresh. Chicken fried steak was good, hot home fries, excellent blueberry pancake.

    Mushroom and Swiss omelet
    Tomomi S.

    What a cute diner it is! We stopped here for lunch on our way back and had a very filling and delicious meal. Personable service and really cozy inside. My mushroom and Swiss omelet was fluffy and tasty. So much food and we needed to walk around a little before getting back in our car. We were able to park right in front of the restaurant by luck (there was a single spot open) but there are plenty of parking alongside the street, and there's a parking lot right next to the restaurant as well, which we didn't see until later.

    5 1/2 stars if I could. Delicious food (and plenty of it) and reasonable prices. Coffee was excellent, plenty of refill offers. Very friendly and attentive service. Edelweiss hit on all cylinders. Very close to I-80 but not visible from the highway. A perfect breakfast lunch spot for locals or tourists heading to or from the mountains. Couldn't have asked for a better breakfast experience . As Arnold Schwarzenegger said "I'll be back"!

    A little better than the Old Town location but the many, many flies... Still would not go back. Much better food at other places.

    Happy Easter everyone!…read more Today, my daughter and I went out to breakfast here at Sweetpeas. It is located off the freeway on the corner of Bowman and Luther roads. There was plenty of parking when we pulled in. As you walk in, you seat yourself. I hadn't been here before, but my daughter has. When we sat down (table and chairs kinda place), one server got us a couple of waters while we were looking over the menu.. perfect, because that's what we love to drink. After we decided on what we wanted I got a chance to look around at the decor on the walls. It felt very family friendly with baby pictures on the walls, signs, coffee mugs along the restaurants name spelled out on the wall. It was very cute and cozy. My daughter ordered the Carnitas Omelet (Carnitas omelet with jack cheese, black beans, red onions, avocado, and black olives, topped with sour cream. Served with sourdough toast and fresh fruit) with strawberries. I ordered the Huevos Ranchero's with eggs over medium (Corn tortillas, refried beans, 2 eggs, sour cream, avocado, homemade salsa, and cheese cheese. Also served with a side of salsa.) We didn't wait long, it arrived within 10 minutes. Also, after smelling their delicious coffee, I had to have a cup! A+!!!! My daughter let me try her Carnitas Omelet. Their Carnitas is on point! It was tender and has great flavor! Her omelet was beautifully cooked, being that it was gorgeous, yellow and fluffy. My Huevos Ranchero's was crispy in the bottom as I requested. I love the topping of avocado. The only thing I would change is to get all the salsa on the side. There was quite a bit on the Huevos Ranchero's themselves and it was a little overwhelming. Next time, I'll order it completely on the side. The menu has it listed as homemade... it tasted a little bit like it was Pace chunky salsa. I didn't even touch the side of salsa that also comes in the side and I wasn't sure what the extra side of tortillas was for, but I took those home. My daughter took home about half of her 3 egg omelet and some toast. Maddy was a great server. Everyone helped each other out by doing coffee refills for all tables (not just their own), running out hot food, and helping clean up tables as people finished their plates. Great team work! We paid up in the front and we're on our way. BE SURE TO TIP YOUR SERVER FOR ALL THEIR HARD WORK!

    We were happy to have Brenda back. She's great and we missed her. She is always so helpful and…read morewilling to accomodate our special needs.

    Wonderful. We stopped in and got a Meyer Lemon and Rosemary…read moresourdough loaf, a BLT, a cinnamon roll, a quiche and a couple of cookies. The BLT may be the best one I have ever had. Same for the cinnamon roll. Even after 6 hours and starting to dry out a little, STILL yummy. The sourdough loaf is magnificent. The quiche was for my wife. I am not really a quiche guy.....and even that was good. I am going back tomorrow.

    I just happened to come across The Baker and the Cakemaker and, of course, I had to stop in and see…read morewhat they had! There were plenty of goodies to choose from like pastries, croissants, artisanal breads, cake slices, brioche bread with fruit, cinnamon rolls and several other products for sale. Their cake of the week was a mocha cake! It has layers of chocolate cake with an Expresso milk soak, frosted with expresso buttercream frosting with a chocolate ganache drip, topped with cocoa nuts... WOW!!! The artisanal breads are located on the side of the shop when you walk up towards the case. They have many flavors like roasted sourdough, pumpkin seed, kalamata olive, rosemary & lemon, and more! All breads are preservative free and made with organic flour. I decided to try the flourless brownie along with a ham and cheese croissant. I wanted something sweet and something savory. The flourless brownie was definitely my favorite of the two. It was rich, chocolatey, and had that creamy texture that you want from a good flourless brownie. It was a good size, too! The ham and cheese croissant itself was good and had a nice flaky texture, but I really wish there had been more ham and cheese inside. It felt a little light on the filling, especially compared to the size of the croissant. I absolutely enjoyed the flavor and flakey texture. It was a perfect crossiant, minus the ham and cheese part. The inside is cute but be prepared to get cozy with only a small amount of space to sit. Thankfully, they also have some outdoor seating if you want to hang out and enjoy your pastry there. I didn't get a picture of indoor or outdoor seating because they were a good amount of people enjoying their dining experience. I guess they know where the goodies are! Here! Overall, I liked discovering this little spot. Between the pastries, croissants, artisanal breads, and other goodies for sale, there was plenty to look at and definitely a few things I want to come back and try... and I'd for sure grab another one of those flourless brownies!
