    This is located in the Irvington area of Fremont . Nice place for brunch / breakfast with ample parking . Service is great. They got us seated immediately and brought the menu . The have one nice equipment which has option to pay , call the service once you are ready to order which I found very interesting . They have lots of crepe option , both savory and sweet . Some of them are marked spicy . I ordered the Maui Hawaii savory crepe which was mild spicy and my friend ordered Rarotonga which was nice as well . You get one side dish with your savory crepe for which I ordered Greek salad and my friend got the pasta . Both of them were really delicious. We also ordered the espresso brownie cake crepe which was really good and had Nutella chocolate spread on it . I will surely come back here .

    After passing by on a morning walk I decided to stop by here on my way home. The staff here are extremely friendly and professional, it was very refreshing and welcoming. I decided to sit in their outdoor area while the sun was still out. I was so amazed by the different food/drink options and after seeing food pass by to another table I was very intrigued. I am a sucker for infused water so I was immediately happy when I saw them bring water to our table. I ordered a carrot juice which was very good and true to taste, the club house sandwich and the super crepes. It was by far one of the best sandwiches I've had in a really long time, the fried egg is one of my favorites on a sandwich. I've always had sweet crepes in the past but never a savory one until today. Those will now be the go to crepes from now on, it was so delicious. The portion size was very generous as well. They had a QR code to scan to order or even physical copies of menus along with a button you can press for ordering and paying. I will definitely be back and plan to tell everyone I know (:

    Chill brunch place, menu is fairly large, too many options! Quick service, good food & good portions. Price is good for the amount/quality!

    Veggie Spicy Crepe and Mixed Berries Crepe
    Bryan T.

    Came here for brunch. Ordered a savory Spicy Veggie Crepe and a sweet Mixed Berries Crepe. The crepes here are excellent. The Spicy Veggie Crepe was a little sweet and spicy, with pineapples mixed in with the veggie and the sweet chili sauce. The sweet chili sauce used was very good. I wish there was more variety with the fruit side (organs and more pinnacle), but otherwise can't complain. The Mixed Berries Crepe was nice as well. I wish I had asked for it to come out later instead of at the same time as the savory crepe since all sweet crepes come with ice cream, so I felt a little rushed to finish up before the ice cream melted.

    Crepes for a meal is definitely an unique concept. My wife and I came by and the decor inside is a little off? The furniture used inside resembles more towards a look you would typically find in countries from Asia. I wasn't able to make the connection between them to Frodo Joe. Lord of the Rings anyone? After we sat, I ordered the AIX-En-Provence (Half & Half) and my wife got the Classic crepe. Both dishes come with a side of your choice. I chose the fruit while she chose the salad. The meal crepes were delicious and the portion is decent for you to be full. Surprised? I know right. The waitresses were friendly and the atmosphere was relaxing. I left thinking this restaurant is a wonderful concept for a meal. With minimal competition like it, this owner is really smart. An area of improvement would be to deck it in some type of Euro or even American furniture. It'll definitely spice the restaurant more and attract even more customers. If you're a lover of crepes, this one is for you. The option is plentiful and they have sandwiches also. I didn't see anyone get a sandwich so a pro advice is to stick to what they're known for.

    Fresh Strawberries Crepe

    Great service! No wait on a Sunday morning. Got the Ben-To Crepe, super savory and good with the pasta salad. Added some cholula for some extra kick! Strawberries crepe was super good and not too sweet. We asked for the Nutella on the side. Would definitely come back again and try other crepes!

    Excellent service. Maria (the lady who helped me ) and other staffs were awesome. I loved their food and overall ambiance was also great.

    Santa Cruz Crepe with Pasta Salad
    Leah A.

    Visited on a rainy Tuesday afternoon during the Holidays. It was busy for a weekday. Staff was incredibly efficient and seated us right away. We ordered using the QR code menu. I had the Santa Cruz crepe. The roasted garlic was delicious. The cook on the crepe was great, perfectly crispy at the edges. Even though they were so busy, they took time and care to give us latte art with our drinks. Staff checked in often and were very attentive. One member noticed our table was a little shaky and offered to move us to a different table. I ordered the toffee coffee with almond milk, decalf and it was so nice. I was excited decalf was an available customization and that they offer many milk options. I appreciated the tiny bits of toffee waiting for me at the bottom of my mug. A little holiday treat.

    Cozy cafe vibe, mostly older customers for some reason, Friendly, attentive, and thoughtful service, (their timing!). Very inventive crepes. You can customize them however you want. HUGE portion, i was thinking it would be about snack portion but it was a full blown meal lol. Very fresh ingredients and fruits, perfectly ripe. We will be back to try rest of the menu, 10/10 would recommend

    Spicy veggie Crepe (1/5 stars for being edible)
    Erin K.

    I'm going to be honest... I am not a fan. I came on a Friday morning and there was plenty of seating. We were greeted right away. After looking on the menu and becoming overwhelmed with the options, I went with the spicy veggie crepe because I saw some positive reviews of it on yelp. It was pretty bad. Like... I hate food waste and always clean my plate but I could not eat all of these crepe. The fillings were sparse but maybe that's a good thing because they did not go together at all. Sundried tomatoes, pineapples, cheese, and mushrooms??? Admittedly, I did not read the descriptions of the crepe. I just saw the reviews were positive on yelp and went with it. Huge mistake. The sundried tomatoes were clumped together in one part of the crepe, there were two mushroom slices and then these giant chunks of pineapple. There was also this spicy sauce that was not very good or complementary with the rest of the crepe. I'm not sure if I got the dud crepe or what but I'll probably never come again.

    Good breakfast place with great variety of crepes. We were treated very nicely by the entire staff here and it was a nice place to visit inside or sit outside.

    Bacon and avocado crepe
    Thuyvi M.

    The last time I tried Frodos was many years ago when I worked in Fremont. Glad the place is still around. Came back during lunch today and was seated right away. I ordered a bacon and avocado crepe with Greek salad. Also a ice mocha with soy. Food came out fairly quick and crepe was nicely crispy and hot. The bacon was very crispy and the pesto sauce went well with it. It was a little too cheesy for me with the mozzarella but overall a good lunch. Greek salad paired well with a balsamic dressing. The ice mocha wasn't too sweet but needed more ice since it was room temperature. The decor of the restaurant is cute and gave me a Thai vibe. I've always been a fan of Frodos so glad quality and service hasn't changed.

    Strawberries and Banana Crepe

    Crepes for a Sunday brunch? Always a good idea. We stumbled upon Frodo Joe's Petite Café and were honestly a bit unsure about going in--it was surprisingly quiet for a Sunday afternoon. But we decided to give it a shot, and I'm so glad we did. The menu has a great variety of crepes--savory, sweet, and even vegetarian options. I tried the Ben-to Crepe and it was seriously delicious. The flavors were spot on, and the portion was just right. The dessert crepes are also fully customizable, which is always a win if you're picky or just want to get creative. The staff was super accommodating and friendly, which made the experience even better. It's one of those hidden gems that surprises you in the best way. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and craving a good crepe.

    Something made me think about Katz's Delicatessen in NYC and I suddenly craved a Pastrami sandwich…read more I was excited to find Mirchi nearby and a locally beloved pastrami with interesting ingredients. Location is near the Mirchi cafe on Fremont Blvd in the plaza right next to Wonderland smoke shop. There is plenty of parking. Staff was super nice and helped me open the stuck door that you have to pull really hard on to get in. The market is small but curated and I was drawn to the imported potato chips. I picked up a bag of Lay's Masala chips I haven't had since I was in Mumbai, excited to eat it with my sandwich. The sandwich took about 10 minutes to make and panini-press and smelled delicious. However, when I got home I immediately noticed the color and thought they had mistakenly used roast beef. I looked at some of the other reviews and their doordash image and I'm confused on what I got. The pastrami was missing the distinct reddish-pink color from brining and black bark from smoking, I'm not sure how it was prepped in-house but it tasted like roast beef. I did enjoy the blueberry jam and pepperoncini combo.

Every time I walk in, I'm greeted with a smile, they know me by name, and they always make me feel appreciated (even got a free coke and soup) Thank you! That kind of genuine hospitality is rare. They've even surprised me with small freebies from time to time, which really shows how much they value their customers. Because of that, I've been more than happy to support them, I regularly recommend them to my staff and coworkers and encourage everyone to grab lunch here. If you're looking for great food, fast service, and genuinely good people, this is the place to go. They truly deserve all the support. Highly recommend!

    I was going to go to one place I want to come back but this sandwich restaurant has popped up. So I…read moredecided to come here since I was interested with it specially with how they design this place. It's quite small when I got here. I like the way they design this place since artworks are good here. There was one employee who seems to be taking over the restaurant, and he is patient and nice. I took my time to scroll over the menu since I'm new here and also they have plenty of options. They come in different sizes ranging from 4-8 inches. They sound smaller since skinnier sandwiches less than that size are small. I got an 8-inch Reuben sandwich and wow...I was expecting it to be smaller, but this is probably because of the bread they choose and how kinda packed the meat is. Now, I see why 8-inch is considered the largest. About the Reuben sandwich, it's really good and meaty. The crunchiness of the bread is on point since it's toasted very well. Also, the way he cut the sandwich was uneven since the first half of the sandwich is slightly larger than the second half. Don't know why but I guess it's part of the process. They have other options including soups, salads, and Mac & cheese. I'm looking forward to trying those including other sandwiches. Hopefully, I don't take too much time scrolling on the menu when I come back.

    I had a very disappointing experience at West Coast Sourdough in Fremont…read more I ordered two meals totaling $52.60 (after using a coupon; the regular price would have been around $60). I also paid for extra cheese on my sandwich. After leaving the restaurant and driving to a meeting, I started eating and realized the extra cheese I paid for was missing. I called the restaurant to let them know about the mistake, expecting a simple apology or an offer to make it right. Instead, the person who identified himself as the owner argued with me, insisting that the extra cheese had been added. I politely explained that it was not on my sandwich, but he continued to debate me rather than listen to his customer. Eventually, I ended the call because the conversation was going nowhere. Mistakes happen, and I understand that. What I don't understand is the lack of customer service and the unwillingness to simply acknowledge the issue and resolve it. My advice to anyone ordering here is to check your order carefully before leaving the restaurant. If something is missing, don't expect a customer-focused response if you call about it afterward.
