    I woke up with a craving for pesto, artichoke hearts, and coffee cake. So I decided I had to have Hobee's! My boyfriend got the seasonal scramble: sleigh ride. It was actually very delicious. I'm kind of kicking myself for not trying the Holiday Hash Bennie Bowl. Honestly, I swear I used to get something like a Santa Cruz bowl that had artichoke hearts and pesto, so I ended up adding artichoke hearts to my Sonoma bowl. Of course, it's not a trip to Hobee's without their coffee cake, and I had to try the candied bacon. Initially the candied bacon came out pretty underdone for my liking, but after throwing it back on the grill it was much more enjoyable. And I ended up drinking a Mexican Mocha because...why not? All in all, not a bad haul for $62 before tip. I had leftovers, and satiated a nostalgic craving while introducing my boyfriend to a new to him place.

    Pancake combo

    I came here with my brothers on a Saturday morning and it was busy! Luckily we just had to wait 10 minutes for our table. The ambiance felt very homey and the service was relatively quick. The food was pretty good and well priced for the portion sizes. I had to try the coffee cake since they're known for that and it did not disappoint! It came out warm and the textures/flavors definitely made it one of the better coffee cakes I've had! I also got the pancake combo and added some breakfast potatoes, which was pretty good as well. Just knocking one star off since the water cup I got was dirty and it took the waiter a second to bring me another cup after I pointed it out.

    Ordered el ranchero (9/10), BBIT (best breakfast in town, 8/10), grits (8/10) and orange juice. Food overall was pretty good, pancake and coffee cake were yum as well. Service was quick and servers were friendly and attentive. Diner has a good positive feel and a sunny day in the Bay Area added cherry on top. Will visit again.

    Amazing food, amazing service and ambiance was not that bad. The place was heavily crowded and people just kept coming in. The food was delicious. It's just amazing, every bit of it. Must try for brunch lovers.

    Salmon Hash & Eggs

    We haven't been to a Hobee's in years, mainly because the local one in the Pruneyard closed. It was one of our favorite places for breakfast. We were out and about and decided to go to one Sunnyvale location. It' a small place, surrounded by several hotels. It is a bit dated but clean. There is not much parking in the front. Not sure if there is parking on the side or the back. Breakfast was great! All of our favorites were still on the menu. My husband has the hash and I had the Greek style omelette. Had to get the blueberry coffee cake and the red, white and blue smoothie. We also had the tea. Everything tasted great and definitely missed the coffee cake.

    Happy 4th to you all out there in USA. Had to take my lady to try out Hobee's and she loved it. Our waitress Ernestina is a 14 year veteran and was a TRUE ONE. Great job on her service and communicating to us on all the plates. I decided to try out some breakfast rice bowl that was off the hook delish! Muy bueno! The Griddle pancakes with a bunch of food packed inside was splendid. It had bacon, cheese, avocado, onion. PHAT! The place was packed with customers and it was buzzing with happy liquor'd individuals. Hijole!!

    The world-famous blueberry coffee cake was pretty disappointing--dry and tasteless. I've had it before, and it was just as I remembered. I also got an entree, which was decent--filling and pretty good. There are usually long lines on weekends. The environment is nice, though--cozy with a cabin vibe.

    This is a great breakfast spot for me to grab a few things to go. Usually just a piece of blueberry coffee cake and a strawberry energy blend drink to go. Service is fast and friendly, doesn't take much time to get what you need.

    Hobee's is a solid spot for American breakfast. It has that trusted, old-school diner feel with simple, home-cooked food. Nothing fancy, just comforting breakfast dishes done well. A nice place if you're looking for a classic breakfast with a cozy vibe.

    The Hobee's chain is a local favorite. Over the years, Hobees's has been closing locations throughout the Bay Area. A few still exist, including this one spot near a bunch of motels and adjacent to a major freeway. The traditional sweet tea is a favorite along with the coffee cake. I've always been partial to the pancakes. Service was great and the ambiance is traditional diner vibe.

    Went for a Father's Day brunch, and they seated us pretty quickly. Thought that it being packed was a good sign, but all the food was surprisingly average. Tofu scramble was not seasoned well and the side of hashbrowns were a mix of over and undercooked. Pancakes were a bit tough and chewy, not the light and fluffy stack I expected. We also only got a small, paper cup side of maple syrup while other tables received a metal syrup dispenser, not sure why. All around, average. South of the border omelette was great and had a lot of toppings! Wish I got this instead.

    Came over the weekend for a quick breakfast and was seated right away! Ordered one of their specials - a twist on their sweet potato hash and eggs, but this one had chorizo, a chipotle sauce, and I added avocado. I wish that they would add this to the regular menu! It was delicious! Just that little spice really made this dish great. It wasn't super busy so it wasn't too loud or anything, even though we were seated near a large party. Hobee's is one of my favorite breakfast spots and I'll always be coming back!

    Been here multiple times for brunch and dinner and each time everything was great!…read more Interior, nicely decorated/cute with flowers. You can also pick up some bouquets in their floral section. One thing I love to get is their Truffle Honey Egg Sando. I love how the honey compliments the sando and the truffle flavor is perf. Another memorable dish is the GIWA Prime Long Rib. So softtt, flavorful, perfect balance of meat and fattiness, and cut in to perfect bite size pieces. The salad on the side also adds a nice refreshing touch. Also plated nicely too. The table also loved the Truffle Potato Pancake. Again, they do truffle well! The Creamy Uni and Tobiko Rice Pot was also really good! The drinks come with a cute heart straw :) They have a few new, unique dishes that are definitely worth trying. Service was great, super friendly/communicative/informative. Parking lot can sometimes be packeddd/busy. Def reccomend going here just to try great food, have celebrations such as birthdays, or catch up with friends

    The ube and black sesame latte have a strong flavor with a yogurt taste to it. The black sesame…read morelatte is sweet and nutty The palace patty Benedict is good, it's a homemade meatloaf that's juicy, the sauces pair with it well. The combo katsu is very crispy and not too much batter. I preferred the pork one over the patty. Sunny side soufflé is different, usually it's always sweet ones versus savory. I thought there was too much sauce and it was a bit more sour/tangy compared to the one on the Benedict. The soufflé does take very long, they said it would be about 30 mins but I think it took longer than that. Overall, food is good but I would recommend coming here if you have a lot of time and no arrangements. We got there an around 8:35 and we were the first 2 tables and based on the service and how fast food came out, we were done after 1.5 hours. If you want your food to come out faster I would ordering the skillet items or the pasta and Benedict as I saw those come out a lot faster. The table next to us ordered the skillet and pasta and got their food maybe about 5-10 mins after ordering.

    Meyhouse Sunnyvale -- Excellent Food, but the Service Pacing Could Be Much Better…read more I tried the $44.95 three-course prix fixe lunch and chose the Köpoğlu as my meze, upgraded the main to the Adana Kebab for $3, and added the Künefe for $2. The food was the strongest part of the experience, and several things stood out more than I expected. The complimentary bread was excellent--warm, fragrant, and nicely textured. I also really enjoyed the green herb sauce served with it. The parsley and mint flavors were quite pronounced, almost grassy, but in a good way. It was fresh and aromatic and worked very well with the bread. The Köpoğlu was one of the highlights of the meal. The roasted eggplant, tomato sauce, garlic yogurt, and olive oil were very well balanced. I especially liked the garlic yogurt--the acidity, garlic, and creaminess were all present without any one element overpowering the others. The tomato added sweetness and acidity, while the olive oil rounded everything out. It was especially good with the bread. The Adana Kebab was also very good. My first bite came from the end of the skewer and was slightly dry, but once I got into the center, the meat was noticeably juicier. The char from the grill was excellent, and the lamb had a clear lamb flavor without being gamey. The chopped red pepper mixed into the meat also added another layer of aroma and flavor. Even the rice surprised me. It looked like plain white rice, but it was flavorful enough to eat on its own, with a noticeable buttery, almost milky aroma. The flatbread underneath the kebab was also very good after soaking up some of the lamb juices and fat. If I had one criticism of the main plate itself, it would be the proportion of onion-tomato salad to meat. The salad tasted fine, but for my preference, there was a little too much of it. I really enjoy the lingering flavor of grilled lamb, and while the rice and bread help carry that flavor, the raw onion and tomato act as a strong palate cleanser and erase it quickly. Since the meat portion was relatively small compared with the rice and salad, I would personally prefer a little more kebab and a little less salad. The Künefe was another highlight. I really enjoyed the contrast between the crispy kadayıf on the outside and the soft, warm cheese inside. The pistachios on top were not something I particularly enjoyed by themselves, but mixed together with the cheese, syrup, and crispy pastry, they made much more sense. The first few bites, especially the areas that had not absorbed too much syrup, were excellent. Toward the center it became a little sweeter than I prefer, but overall I still liked it very much. Food-wise, I would actually give Meyhouse a slight edge over Dishdash. There were more layers and more small details to notice throughout the meal, from the bread and herb sauce to the Köpoğlu, Adana, rice, flatbread, and dessert. The service, however, did not match the level of the food. The restaurant was quite quiet at lunch, but the pacing was surprisingly rushed. I had barely started eating the Köpoğlu when the main course arrived. For a menu specifically presented as a three-course prix fixe, I expected the courses to be paced more deliberately. Instead, I had to choose between continuing to enjoy the appetizer and eating the kebab while it was still hot. There was also an issue with clearing the table. One staff member who was not the person taking my order repeatedly tried to remove my bread and the green herb sauce. The first time, I specifically asked him to leave the sauce. Later, after I finished the main course, he came back and again started clearing both without asking. I told him I wanted the bread to go, so he left the bread, but still removed the herb sauce. It was a small detail, but it made the service feel mechanical rather than attentive to what the guest had already requested. Overall, I would rate the food around 8.5/10 and the service around 6.5-7/10. Meyhouse is a little more expensive than Dishdash, but the prix fixe lunch is also very substantial. I only ate about half of the complimentary bread, and I was already quite full after the main course. Finishing the Künefe left me completely stuffed, so the portion size is definitely generous. I would still come back. Next time, I would probably try the Ahtapot, especially since it is only a $9 upgrade on the prix fixe compared with $25 à la carte. The food gives me a reason to return; I just hope the pacing and attention to small service details are better next time.
