    Fish and Chip
    Heidi D.

    Oh Fandee's, how have I never been here before? Do you know how many times I've driven past or shopped at Ace Hardware and thought, "I wonder what that restaurant is like?" You're such an unassuming restaurant tucked into a shopping center! Well, thanks to my friends, I don't have to wonder anymore. Our group of 4 came in for a late lunch/early dinner and were seated easily enough, though the place was definitely not empty. Our server was friendly and accommodating, especially with my champagne ordering, and set a relaxed, welcoming tone for the rest of our meal. It's not a "small plates" restaurant but luckily, my friends are all up for sharing! We ordered: Fish & Chips - Flaky fish, not overly battered, flavorful while still letting the fish shine. A few squeezes of lemon and a splash of malt vinegar took it over the finish line. The fries were crispy, and the ranch was tasty. Eggplant Pomodoro - I was convinced the noodles were house-made, but apparently not! The sauce was flavorful, light, filling, and well-balanced. Total comfort dish. Southwest Chicken Sandwich - Boohoo, no picture! But it was soooo good, and the onion rings were top-notch. We ended with a shared creme brulee and honestly, the texture was perfection. I'm not a creme brulee fan but appreciate when it's done well. The other three are fans and they waxed poetic about the dessert. Seriously, what a hidden "IYKYK" gem and now *I KNOW* ...and I cannot wait to return!

    Great service, great food and great restaurant interior. We have never been to Fandee's and were in the area. It looks kinda plain on the outside but looked much nicer and more modern inside. We were greeted and seated quickly, it was Sunday at 415 pm and it was not busy but had steady business. Some of our group ordered champagne. They had a great pour and you felt like you had your moneys worth. Next we ordered out meals, I had a eggplant Pomodoro and others ordered fish and fries and Santa Fe chicken sandwich. My dish came out and it looked great. I had the first bite and it was wonderful. I loved all the flavors with just the right seasoning, the garlic was present but not overwhelming, the tomato, basil chili flakes were just the right blend topped off with parmesan cheese that was melted on top. Pasta was done perfectly. Everyone at the table tried it and it was a hit. I tried the fish n chips and it was very good flavor and texture with two really large pieces of fish and a plate full of fries. The fries were good but the onion rings that were ordered with the Santa Fe chicken sandwich was great. I did not try the sandwich but was told that it was a hit and they would order it again. We were all full but ordered a Creme Brulee to finish off the meal. It was the perfect end to a great meal. Creamy with a crunchy top and fresh fruit on top. Great upscale presentation with the food we received. We all agreed that the food was great and the price was reasonable for the quality and quantity that you received. We will definitely return.

    Scrambled eggs with country potatoes
    Lisa L.

    I have talked about stopping by this cute little spot for years and just finally thought I needed to do it since I was hungry and couldn't think of anything else. I am so glad I did! It is quite a nice place with a patio outside. The size of the restaurant belies what the external view indicates. It is very nice inside and we were greeted warmly by one of the wait staff. My husband and I were both craving breakfast so we were glad to arrive while they were still serving that type of meal. I ordered three eggs scrambled with country potatoes and sliced avocado on the side and my husband ordered their eggs Benedict with hashbrowns. The service was pretty quick. The eggs Benedict was one of the best I've tasted. The hollandaise sauce was almost perfect and my husband felt like the breakfast was so filling he could barely finish half of it. My pile of scrambled eggs and country potatoes were also fantastic. I prefer a pile of scrambled eggs that feel like they have a little weight to them and aren't just drippings of eggs. These were very good. The country potatoes were a surprise as they included a ton of herbs. My only comment would be that Rosemary should be an accent and not the main part of the potatoes. They were delicious, but I burped rosemary for about 12 hours. Overall, this is a gem. I'm glad I finally was able to uncover!

    Eggplant Shakshuka
    Jessica K.

    Stopped by for brunch as we were passing through the city. There was no wait when we got there around 10:30 but there was a line forming around 11:45 when we left. Plenty of parking since it's connected to a large grocery plaza. Service was very friendly. Food took a while to come out but was well worth it. Fandee's Benedict was great, with crispy bacon and plenty of sauce coating it. The eggplant shakshuka was amazing and came with 2 pieces of toasted bread. If you like tomato you'll love it - it's a strong tomato flavor. Despite not really liking eggplant in general, the eggplant here was actually pretty good. Huge portion as well. I highly recommend this!

    I've been wanting to check this place out for a while, and finally did. What a great spot! Food was amazing as well as the mimosa with fresh squeezed OJ. Service was great and prices are reasonable. Happy to drive out of my way to visit again.

    Fandee's Corned Beef Hash

    Great local restaurant for breakfast. The corned beef hash was chunky and delicious.

    Shukshuka - eggplant and tomatoes with eggs - amazing flavors!
    Scott M.

    We love Fandee's! They do the standards really well, but the menu also has a lot of specialty items. We love them for brunch! Great eggs hollandaise burgers etc. I recently tried their shukshuka (eggplant and tomato dish with two eggs baked on top) and it was amazing! Dont overlook this special local place - they never disappoint - and the service is always super friendly!

    Breakfast menu sorry for glare
    Sabrina K.

    Service and ambiance were good. Coffee is quality. Food is decent and large portion. It is possible to share and save money. Too bad they will not allow substitutions though. Breakfast ends at 3:pm. We were late and we're lucky someone did allow my colleague to have cowboy fried chicken and eggs. I got a cup of clam chowder and citrus salad. The breakfast dish was average, very rich and creamy, and biscuit a bit dry. My clam chowder was tasty but a bit too much thickener like added starch. It would have benefited with a bit more stock or even white wine, and a cup is large, more like a bowl. But the clam pieces within were just the perfect tenderness and not tough or fishy. I asked for bread and butter with it as it comes with a packet of two saltine crackers. I had to buy a piece of garlic cheese toast, which was average. The salad was way too large and wish it had possibility of ordering half portion. I had to take some home, and left over salad greens are not ideal. Thankfully it had the blue cheese to balance out very sweet pecans and cranberry, and even citrus dressing quite sweet. Thankfully i do like blue cheese as you cannot sub. Other items on the menu looked interesting, for dinner and such, but I'm worried now it's balanced onto the heavy, rich, sweeter side of foods....i did not want to give 3 stars, definitely not 5, wish i could do 3.5. Prices are normal not outrageous.

Worth noting though: it gets very noisy. The menu offers an interesting mix of Thai and French cuisine - not quite fusion, but rather two distinct menus side by side. Think of it as a safe bet for groups with different cravings. The portions are decent and the prices are in line with typical Bay Area standards - not a bargain, but not outrageous either. Unfortunately, what brought my rating down to three stars was the service. For a relatively simple meal - oysters to start and one entrée each - the pacing was surprisingly slow. We waited nearly 20 minutes for our plates to be cleared, another 10 for the dessert menu, and after an additional 15-minute wait we ended up canceling dessert altogether, as the evening had stretched to two hours and we had a long drive ahead. To be fair, the tables around us seemed to have a smoother experience, so perhaps we caught them on an off night. I'd like to give them another shot, but I'm leaving with mixed feelings that honestly reflect a three-star experience - great bones, but the service needs work.

The saving grace of the night was the edamame appetizer (which was still a tad over cooked), sticky rice, which was not sticky by the way (jasmine rice) and the steak that was cooked to a perfect medium rare.
