    Blackstone benedict with hashbrowns
    Fumika T.

    Came here for breakfast during a weekend in Sausalito to fuel up before 3/5 food. I ordered the blackstone benedict which I thought was pretty good. The fred's bacon is similar to candied bacon anywhere, but not as sweet. The hashbrowns are excellent. My partner ordered the pancakes and he said that and the syrup had no flavor. The eggs tasted more like water than egg. 5/5 portions and generosity and service and staff, topped us up on coffee multiple times (even though we really didn't want any) 4/5 the vibes give classic American diner, quick service and easy to dine alone or with family in. Can't say I would come back but it's worth checking out if you're looking for a quick and easy meal.

    Wonderful brunch spot! Really extensive menu with great scrambles, omelettes, Benedict's and a fried French toast!

    Single order of scramble eggs- $5
    Deanna L.

    Fred's Coffee Shop is such a gem. Never had I ordered a scramble egg and enjoyed it because it would always be dry and overcooked at other cafes, but it was perfection. My toddler also ate a good portion of it so that's a good sign. The classic eggs Benedict was covered in a generous amount of well-flavored hollandaise sauce and a beautifully cooked poached egg. The hash brown had a good crisp without being overcooked or too greasy. The service was friendly, the food came out quick, hot and they had a small parking lot so that was convenient.

    Calamari

    Secret's out. One of the best breakfast spots in Sausalito is now serving dinner (4-9 pm Tuesday-Saturday). If you like Sailors, you'll love the food here. Sergio gives a warm welcome and the staff are full of joy. Beat the rush and come later. Happy hour is from 4-6 pm. I'm always down for a discount. The space is set up with smaller seating for an intimate dinner vibe. The gratis chips and salsa was great. Calamari is served hot, crispy, and with two sauces. The grilled fish tacos is served with two filets, rice, beans, and tortillas on the side. You make your own tacos as stacked as you please. Wash it all down with $6 beer. Yep, best price around. Want another secret? Breakfast menu for dinner is in the making, but you didn't hear it from me.

    We ordered French Toast, Waffle with Berries, Bacon, Scrambled Eggs, Black Coffee & Apple Juice

    Found this cute coffee shop while in San Francisco. There is seating inside & outside. We sat outside (they have heaters outside) & got our order taken quickly even though they were seemed pretty busy. The waiter was so friendly. We ordered French toast & Waffle with Berries with a side of scrambled eggs & bacon, apple juice & plain black coffee. Food was soooo delicioussssss! Tastes just like home cooked breakfast! Can't wait to come back!

    2 scrambled eggs

    The eggs were so so so so fluffy!! The omelette was so high in protein and healthy. I loved the experience

    Corned beef hash
    L D.

    Don't believe the low ratings on this place, because those reviewers obviously wouldn't know good food if it bit them in the a$$. We found this gem on our way to Muir Woods and glad we did. The food is delicious here. Staff are all super sweet and attentive. The food comes out fast and the portions are huge! They keep your coffee topped off and will make a latte, too. Our waiter was super sweet and kept checking on our food and drinks. He went out of his way to make me a latte, as well. The atmosphere is quaint and old school diner, nothing fancy! But a great vibe to it. Next time we visit we will definitely be back!

    Avacado omelet
    Hoda R.

    Such a great spot in Sausalito! I stopped in for breakfast and it was absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The coffee was excellent too, and the cozy atmosphere made it the perfect place to relax and enjoy the morning. Friendly staff and a lovely vibe. A true gem for a breakfast break! We will definitely come Back .

    This place is exactly what I want in a breakfast diner spot. I had the Greek omelette and got the hashbrowns with hollandaise. Everything tasted great and their portions were huge. My friends got the eggs benedict, Fat Fred, pancakes, and their special bacon and they were raving about it. The service was quick and friendly. I will definitely come back next time I visit.

    The $16.35 sourdough breakfast sandwich.
    Sean B.

    I have lived in southern Marin since 1989. I have been to Fred's countless times. I love their fluffy omelettes. They're incredible real Swiss crêpes, the millionaire bacon and the portion sizes are amazing. However, I wanted a quick breakfast sandwich to go and, even though this was a delicious sourdough sandwich, I don't appreciate the high cost. Now everybody would say that's just the way it is. I disagree, if you go by the standard restaurant calculations there is no doubt that $16.35 for a single breakfast sandwich is overpriced and unnecessary. The sandwich took five minutes to make. It had two slices of bacon, one egg, a slice of cheese and two pieces of toast. It didn't come with anything else so if you do the standard restaurant math, they're making 50 to 60% net profit on this sandwich, effectively gouging. This is unsustainable, and I hope restaurants in the Bay Area will consider how expensive they are for how little they provide. Again the sandwich was delicious but should be $9.95 at the most. If you're on vacation and don't mind a pricey tourist trap this is your spot though!

    Lemon ricotta pancake
    Tiffany T.

    Food: Lemon ricotta pancake 2/5. If you like your pancakes on the slightly chewier/rubbery side, then this one's for you. The flavor of lemon ricotta was barely present, and the presentation of them fell flat for me. Would not recommend. (Side note: all the pictures were taken under a yellow umbrella which is why they look so yellow) Crab omelet: 2.5/5 The ratio of the various ingredients within the omelets was okay, but the crab didn't really stand out within it. The hashbrowns and toast were alright. Classic eggs benedict: 3/5. The benedict itself was good, but could use a little more salt/flavor. It was the potato medley that really stole the show here! The yams and potatoes were fried to a perfect crisp that enveloped its soft, warm interior. Service: 5/5 We (party of 3) came on a somewhat busy Sunday and were seated pretty quickly. Service was excellent; one of the waitresses was very considerate and I appreciate her! TL;DR: Despite the excellent service, I would not come here again. The food is mediocre and not worth it. I could find better brunch spots elsewhere that are around the same price point.

    Veggie scramble with cheese & bacon, potato medley. YUMMMMMM
    Kellee T.

    Delicious, nutritious & so SO pretty!! Busy little corner Cafe away from the hassle & bustle of the tourist traps. Attentive staff. We sat at an outside table so we could have the pup with us.

    My family and I visited Muir beach today with our pup for the first time today. After a beautiful…read morebeach day we searched up dog friendly restaurants nearby and found Le Garage. My sister was cold and really didn't want to have to sit outdoors so we almost opted for to go food, but ultimately chose to dine anyways, and I'm so glad we did. I'll start by saying EVERYTHING was incredible. From the food down to the service we received. All of the staff we interacted with during our time there were very kind and attentive. For starters, when we arrived, I told our waitress we had a dog and she directed us to a table on their "indoor patio ", so we we're basically sat indoors, which was really nice. We weren't cold at all, and had we been, it looked like they had overhead heaters! We ordered their bread service, the warm trout dip, truffle fries, steak & frites, the burger, mussels/clams, the chocolate tart and creme brûlée. It was all delicious. While eating our appetizers, our poor pup got sick and threw up under the table :( we tried to discreetly clean it and felt really embarrassed. Entrées came out a few minutes later, and while eating our entrées, it happened a second time. At that point, we were ready to ask for the food to go, because we were feeling so thoroughly embarrassed. As I started cleaning the vomit a second time, our kind waitress came over and told me she would take care of it. I apologized repeatedly, and we felt sooo bad. She was so kind, and gracious towards us, telling us it was okay. I never got her name, but I wanted to let her know just how much we really appreciated her assistance and for not making us feel worse about what had happened. The way she handled the situation, was the epitome of dog friendly service. I'm not sure why our pup was so sick at the restaurant. My guess is he may have swallowed some water while playing at the beach. I just really wanted to express my gratitude for you all allowing us to enjoy a nice meal and continuously treating us kindly and respectfully after our poor boy got sick in your restaurant. Thank you again! If you're looking for a restaurant with delicious food, great ambiance and even better service, THIS IS IT

They brought out a slice of red velvet cake, which was great, but we did end up getting charged for it on the bill.

This was a perfect place to go, especially on a nice sunny day. We sat outside on the patio, it did get a little roasty toasty under the sun but it was nice being able to see the water and the city. The service was a tiny bit slow, but overall fast, considering that the place was packed to the room with reservations and walk-ins. The servers were really cute and accommodating for everything, and the food was spectacular. I'm not a huge fan of oysters ( or at least I thought I wasnt) but this definitely changed my mind. It's super fresh, the sauce is pair really well, and the whole vid a good ambulance for me to get back into oysters. If you get a chance, grab the coconut ceviche for a little twist on a classic ceviche... There are slices of coconut and slices of fish with mangoes and tomatoes, which was so tasty. The crab tacos were a whole other deal as well since it wasn't on tortilla, but rather a rice paper kind of wrapping. Super fresh crab, and very juicy and creamy. BEWARE parking is terrible, it's usually crazy packed, and there's a lot of other restaurants and bars around the area which also add to the density. I would recommend this area for adults - couples, friends, older family members. I probably wouldn't recommend this for kids since it's a bit more busy but classy. There's lots of other spots down the street or in Sausalito. That's a bit more accommodating for all ages.
