    Cal Bene
    Daniel S.

    $21+tt Cal Bene: flavorful, balanced, delicious. $5+tt Lemonade: on the sweeter side for me. Absolutely happy to come back.

    I have heard a lot of good things about this place and finally decided to try it out and it definitely met the expectations. We went on a Saturday so the line was a little long but it moved swiftly. Getting seated was a little confusing because they have you seat yourself but not really, definitely something they can work on. The place was super cute I love all the greenery. The food came out quick and was delicious. Everything was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The sangria was also really good and a little strong just like I like it. Will definitely be coming back.

    French toast

    Great breakfast and brunch place. The service is also good. You can add whatever you want on the menu the chicken is has a unique coating that was awesome. I had it wth tres leches French toast. The coffee was not a watered down type good flavor They do have a sign though saying they are going to relocate. Check out my pics

    Eggs Benedict, Steak and Eggs
    Reeven S.

    Eggy's offers both indoor and outdoor dining. This a very solid place for those that want to dine in a garden oasis - very pet friendly and you will still be served by the staff. The line to order was very long. Seating could be limited - you cannot "reserve" or sit in an empty space until you have ordered your food. Technically this "rule" wasn't apparent, but the staff will tell you to get up and give up your seat for those that have ordered. This is a great way to control the seating arrangement for a limited space with lots of customers. The food was pretty solid - a bit on the pricier end. I ordered the steak and eggs. Medium steak, but was a bit overcooked and needed just a tad bit more salt. I like that when I asked for scrambled eggs, they made it omelette style. I went here on a Saturday lunch and it was packed. Took about 15 min in line before being able to order but the food came fast. Parking was tough - street parking only in a very busy street.

    DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE TIME TO WAIT!!! Ok, let me break this place down for you. When I first showed up, the line was scary long but we were not in a rush so I said, let's wait it out. Now this place operates like the new concept restaurants are beginning to follow. You get in line, you order, and then you are seated after you get your number. Please note, YOU CANNOT SAVE A TABLE UNTIL YOU HAVE ORDERED. Also, I recommend seating outside because inside was super loud. Ok now that the logistics are out of the way, here is the really good stuff. Their Huevos Rancheros are absolutely amazing. I am so glad that's what I chose to try because seriously, they were sooo good my husband was jealous he didn't get them lol. The Tres Leches French Toast, also amazing and it's a HUGE serving so be share:) The overall ambiance was cool, food was great, the service, let me tell you, the service was some of thee best I've ever seen. Hope this helps, enjoy!!!

    Birria tacos
    Austin W.

    My friends and I stopped by for brunch at Eggy's Neighborhood Kitchen on a Sunday evening and it was busy as it gets. The line of 30+ people was wrapped far down the ramp. I was worried that the line would take a super long time, but shockingly, the wait was "only" 30 minutes or so before we were able to place our order, and another 15 minutes before we received our food. Overall, I found the food at Eggy's to be good, but pricey -- consistent with any bunch spot in the Bay Area. I ordered the Oskie breakfast sandwich and thought it was a solid breakfast sandwich. There were two thick pieces of bacon in the sandwich that were cooked neither too crispy, nor too soggy. The fried egg had a gooey, runny yolk which added richness to the sandwich. Definitely a messy eat, so you'll may want to have a few extra napkins nearby. The sausage patty was well seasoned and hash brown was super crunchy -- albeit a bit oily. The fruit salad on the side was a refreshing way to balance out the heavy sandwich. My wife ordered the birria tacos and I thought they were shockingly good. The shell is deep-fried to be extra crispy and the consume carries a lot of deep chili and beef flavor. There's generous amounts of braised beef in each taco. The meat is fall apart tender, and has a good balance of lean and fatty parts. I like that lime wedges are included on the side to add a pop of freshness, as well as the onion and cilantro garnishes. The three included with an order are more than enough for a meal, even for those with large appetites. While food was solid, service was lacking. For example, if you order coffee, coffee is supposed to come with one included refill. However, at no point during our meal did we see any of the staff members walking around to tables to top folks off. Overall, I got the impression that the floor staff here are stretched super thin, are doing too much, and as a result, have no capacity to check in on diners. In terms of atmosphere, the indoor seating area is super loud and floors are insanely slippery. Be incredibly careful walking around indoors or you might find yourself making an unexpected trip to the ER. Overall, despite all the aforementioned negatives, Eggy's is still one of the better brunch spots I've visited in Berkeley. I really appreciate that they have menu items not typically found at other brunch spots.

    Finally was able to eat here No line on a Tuesday around 11 am Customer service is good Cashier was patient and friendly We were able to sit inside and watch a soccer game (FIFA) I ordered the braised beef hash $29 it was mostly potatoes and bell peppers see pictures Friend ordered the chicken and waffles and he did enjoy his meal said the chicken was well seasoned and tender Mimosa is $12 each There ie a 3% surcharge regardless of your method of payment (see receipt) Parking is street parking only and you need to pay to avoid a ticket .... Would I come back here again maybe But I definitely wouldn't go out of my way to do so

    Poke nachos
    Joey T.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE! Such a vibe. The line is long and I wish we could do reservations but it's first come first serve and you order first then find a seat which they made it work out seamlessly! Steak and eggs were amazing. I'd get it again. Poke nachos is a MUST. Pass on the French toast And I love the outdoor/patio vibes. But heard they're relocating!!!

    Eggy's is such a great brunch spot. Everything came out hot, fresh, colorful, and packed with flavor. One thing we really appreciate is the pay-first, then eat concept. It keeps things moving and makes it easy to head out when you're done. Every time we've visited there's been a line, so that seems to be the norm. We stopped by around 1:45 p.m. this time and only had a short wait, which didn't bother us at all. My husband and I ordered the tres leches French toast and omelette, and both were excellent. The French toast had a beautifully golden exterior with thick challah bread. I usually prefer a more custardy center, but I didn't mind that it was a bit drier because the berries, compote, and glaze brought everything together and balanced the dish nicely. The omelette was a standout. The eggs were cooked beautifully and filled with well-seasoned peppers, onions, mushrooms, and creamy goat cheese. The house potatoes were crispy, flavorful, and seasoned just right without being overly salty. Some bites had a little more bite to them while others were soft and tender, which made them even more enjoyable. 10/10 would absolutely come back.

    Been on my radar for awhile, tried once with my husband, but the line was out the door on a Sunday around noon (did not expect any less). Finally got to try it with a friend, and we made sure to come early in case there was a line. Went in at Saturday a little before 11am, and waited about 15 mins in line before ordering. Ordering seemed a bit chaotic and rushed even though we knew exactly what we were ordering. It was just the vibes that we got, hurry up and tell me what you want because I have many other things to do while I take orders between that. After you order, they tell you where your table is. Overall, the restaurant has 3 seating areas. One smalk area inside where you place your order, outside in a courtyard like space, and outside upstairs They currently share the outside space with the other businesses. We got seated outside/upstairs. It was a gorgeous day, so we did not think anything of it, but our table did not have an umbrella for shade, so we started burning up after only 2 minutes of sitting directly under the sun. We looked around and saw a few tables finishing up, so we asked if we could be moved. The worker was so nice, he completely understood and agreed to move us once he clears the tables. A few different people got seated at the same table after, and no one survived. Every party that got seated there would stand up after minutes and ask to be moved. Luckily, the worker informed us that they will be moving down the block next week, so it should no longer be a problem. The ambiance is very cute and lively for friends to get together for brunch. Families can come too, but I cannot imagine coming here with my kids. The food on the otherhand was just all right. We were really looking forward to a delicious meal, but we were a bit disappointed. Yelpers rave about how amazing the food is, but the only dish we liked was the birria. It was juicy, tender, flavorful, and crispy. It was the first thing to come out, so we were excited for everything else. It just went downhill from there. The short rib hash was tender, but the flavor just was not great. We asked for extra crispy potatoes, and they did not deliver. The meat was saucy, but it just did not do anything for us. The famous Tres Leche French toast was dry. It felt like we were eating bread smothered in sauce with fruits, rather than bread thats been soaked. If it was soaked, it would not be dry in the center. Garlic fries were also okay, more on salty side. We also wish they were more crispy. We originally said we would come back to try the other dishes that we could not get because there was only 2 of us, but we are having second thoughts now. Definitely would not go out of my way to come again, but would give it another try if I were in the area and there was little to no line.

    French toast, steak and garlic fries, crispy bacon & scrambled eggs. The drinks ... blueberry lemonade mimosa
    Raeven T.

    5 stars hands down! From the food to the service to the beautiful ambiance ! I went here on my birthday ( happy birthday to me ) and I have absolutely no complaints. The staff was very kind and attentive, the food was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. I had the French toast and my hubby had the steak and garlic fries & it was perfection. Our server Arnold deserves a promotion , he was wonderful, kind and very attentive. I will be back when they open their new location

    Steak Frites
    Emeline T.

    Came here with a couple friends on a Saturday for brunch. The entrance is a bit hidden off Shattuck. The line was pretty long, we probably waited for at least 20+ minutes, but the line area is nicely decorated. Kind of a bustling chaotic vibe. You pay at the counter before seating yourself. I tried the breakfast sando, which was tasty for sure but also heavy/greasy. The consensus around the table was that the food was generally pretty heavy. Also worth noting, the waffles that came with the chicken and waffles dish tasted fried (almost like a donut), which was surprising. My dish came with a fruit cup to kind of balance out the grease, which was nice. I'd say it was a solid brunch but I wouldn't go out of my way to wait in line for it again, probably. They were also blasting club-adjacent music which made for a weird brunch vibe.

    Chilaquiles Verdes
    Zara A.

    An incredible brunch experience! Eggy's is tucked away down an alley on Shattuck, blink and you'll miss it. I loved the ambiance of walking through the outdoor seating which if full of plants and a small water founts as we lined up and waited to order. The staff run like a well oiled machine throughout the hustle and bustle of the weekend brunch hours. We ordered the Chilaquiles Verdes and the Fried Chicken Bene to share between us. Both of our dishes were so delicious. I love the tortilla chips they use in the chilaquiles, it soaks up the tomatillo sauce and yolk from the eggs so well. It is incredibly flavorful and a great portion size. The house potatoes served with the fried chicken benedict were the perfect accompaniment, the chicken was crispy, and the poached eggs were runny just how we like it! We left this meal feeling very satisfied and I hope I get to come back again (:

    Order first, and then find outdoor or indoor seating

    How's the parking? Is there a parking lot or street parking only?

    Street parking

    Would it be busy if I went during the graduation commencement at around 10-10:30 AM?

    Most likely not. That's a good time to go

    Is this place pet friendly?

    Yes! I came here with my friend and her large dog.

    Where are you supposed to park?

    Street parking.

    What are the hours?

    9:30 am to 3:00pm

    Can you make a reservation?

    As far as I could tell, you are unable to make a reservation. Their number on Google doesn't work and they have no website set up. Since they are only in their soft opening phase, that probably is why.

    Can we make a reservation?

    No. But what I like about this restaurant is that they will wait to take your order until they know they can seat you. Unlike some other places where you have to stalk diners and swoop in as they're about to leave, Eggy's will hold off taking your…

One of our coworkers recommended Gather, a large, farm-to-table restaurant, so five of us ventured here for a business dinner. The food and service were definitely 5 stars. Great laid back vibe. We came on a Tuesday night and yet the restaurant eventually got busier through the night. My favorite dishes were: Yellowtail Sashimi and Corn Riblets are both great appetizers and full of flavor. We should have double ordered to split among five. The half roasted chicken had crispy skin and was fairly well seasoned and moist. I don't indulge in desserts as much these days but if split a few desserts among five people you get 1/5 the calories, LOL! I recommend the warm bread pudding, pecan sundae, and salted chocolate chip cookies. In case street parking is difficult (it often is in Berkeley!), the restaurant is located right next to Oxford Garage which has a low flat fee for weeknights.

For our drinks, I had the Moonlight Blossom, my aunt had a glass of red wine, and my mom had a cucumber mint spritzer (mocktail as she was the DD). The moonlight blossom tasted similar to cherry limeade. The entrees we had were the mussels, veggie burger, and the chef's market pizza. The mussels themselves were tasty and appreciated that they were able to leave out the chorizo. However, I wish that they brought a spoon and there was more broth. I tried some of my mom's veggie burger and the red color from the beets made it stand out from the usual veggie burger. The fries tasted homemade. I had a slice of the pizza and while I like the ingredients themselves, the combination just didn't do it for me. The crust was good though! We also shared a green goddess salad, which was tasty. The desserts looked amazing but we had no room! Service was friendly and our waitress made good recommendations. Can park on the side streets or the garage. Restaurant was not noisy. Would come back to try other items, especially dessert.

I've been here for date nights, holiday dinners, business dinners, and countless meals with friends visiting from out of town. It's one of those rare restaurants that seems to work for just about any occasion. The service is always great, the College Avenue location is hard to beat, and I've always had good luck finding street parking nearby. The ribeye is my personal favorite and what I order more often than not. If you're coming with a group, the cheese and charcuterie plates are a great way to start. The menu is varied enough that there's always something for everyone, and I've never had a bad meal here. I was genuinely sad to hear that they'll be closing at the end of the year. Restaurants with this kind of quality, consistency, and character are increasingly rare. If you've never been, make a point of going while you still can. I'll certainly miss it once they're gone.

They did partially redeem themselves by comping our meals due to their error and additional time we had to wait, but you would think they would not make such a blatant mistake in the first place. Sloppy service for sure. It apparently wasn't our waiter's fault, who was super friendly, but some manager or somebody, who did completely the wrong thing without double checking, and grabbed our food and set it down on some other patron's table, who I guess then began eating it. Seriously? The food has always been good here but the atmosphere super loud and echoey, not good. So, needless to say, I'm glad they are closing. It's just unfortunate that they are leaving somewhat bad terms with me.

For the appetizers, we got the caprese salad ($19), cheesy garlic bread ($14), chicken wings ($18), and BBQ pork riblets ($18). The caprese salad was one of my favorites. The spring mix was super fresh, and even though I'm not the biggest cheese fan, I really liked the fresh mozzarella. The vinaigrette had the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors, making this a great spring or summer salad. The BBQ pork riblets and chicken wings were both a little dry. I liked the seasoning on the riblets, while the chicken wings were a bit lighter in flavor. The cheesy garlic bread was, as expected, super cheesy! I didn't realize the roasted garlic was served on the side, and personally wasn't the biggest fan of its flavor, but the focaccia itself had a great texture. We also shared the Aries ($22), Mercury ($21), and Cassiopeia ($25) pizzas. The Aries was a classic pepperoni pizza with a nice thin crust, and the Mercury was a margherita pizza. I liked the fresh tomatoes, although I wish there had been more basil. The Cassiopeia was my favorite of the three, and I can definitely see why it's so popular. The BBQ sauce was super flavorful and paired really well with the chicken and onions. Jupiter has a lively atmosphere and a really nice outdoor patio with live music, making it a fun spot for group dinners. I'd recommend making a reservation if you're coming with a larger group. Street parking is available nearby.
