    Had a delicious brunch at Home Plate. Coffee is bottomless, lemonade was good too. Our server was attentive and explained the menu thoroughly. It was our first time here, I would definitely return again!

    Fried chicken and waffle Benedict

    Parking was difficult to find. Got a table right away for a party of 5. It's a nice cozy place. We got the bottomless mimosas. They are pretty prompt to refill your glasses. But you can only get the orange juice mimosa for bottomless and none of the flavored ones. The mimosas are not watered down either Got the chicken and waffles Benedict was really yummy, it came with a side of "home fries" which are essentially potatoes. I just wish they gave syrup with it too Others got a burger, a fried chicken steak, and we also got the crispy French toast for the table The food was overall really good! Enjoyed our brunch!

    Very cozy seating and great staff but the prices don't match the quantity or quality of food I had the corned beef hash with poached eggs on it and my wife had a waffle eggs sausage with a set of hash browns which cost extra. They also have crab cakes which were $16 for two of them but it was full of crab

    We got here on a Saturday and there was a huge line as they maintain the reservations in an old school way of pen and paper :D Although we lost hopes of getting a seat, we managed to get one after waiting for about 15 minutes because a party of 2 infront of us left the queue. The interior ambiance is pleasant for a brunch spot and although the tables were really close to each other, we had a nice meal! The food tasted really really good - both the French toast and the oat meal with seasonal fruits were prepared fresh and plated so well! The service was also really good, as we got our request of changing tables accepted as we couldn't stand the overwhelming smell of the kitchen on the side closer to it. Would definitely come back for brunch if I am in the area!

    Came back here and had a much better experience! I got the crispy French toast and black tea. The French toast was extremely yummy and I'd come back for that again. It was perfectly crispy, flavorful and had fruits and nuts, and so aesthetic too. The service was really good and fast too.

    Service was attentive and got to spend time catching up with friends for about an hour or two on a relaxed Sunday morning. Huevos rancheros was tasty and filling and the coffee got refilled twice. The remodel looks amazing like eating in someone's huge living room. Hopefully get to come here again.

    The food is excellent. I had the home plate special it was delicious. My partner has thService was quick, we came on a Wednesday morning so there was no wait. The place is super cute. I found this place on Yelp and out of all the breakfast spots in San Francisco that we have tried this one is my favorite. They also have a cute set up in the front to take pictures.

    Good service and clean restaurant. Went on a weekday morning and seated right away. Food was delicious! Ordered maple bacon, crab cakes eggs Benedict with potato cakes, and Dulce De Leche Pancakes.

    Chicken & waffles

    I came as a walk-in with a relatively-large party and, surprisingly, was able to get seated within a few minutes. We came for their bottomless mimosas, and they were very accommodating for those of us who didn't want to drink, allowing some of us to participate in bottomless mimosas while others didn't. They were very attentive with replacing our mimosas when they got empty, and were very friendly. As for food, I got the chicken & waffles and had no complaints.

    Latte
    Jenny X.

    Super cute place! Came after a run with the MRC run club. Good: - The ambiance is great, beautiful decor and it's a cute brunch place - The acai bowl was great - super beautiful plating and good portion size, I liked the acai blend they used too and there was a lot of fruit on the plate - The huevos rancheros was also delicious, the tortilla was plated in a cute way - The latte with oatmilk was so tasty! - Staff checked in us a lot Bad: - Takes forever for the food to come out! I swear we waited about 30 min for the food to get to us Overall enjoyed the experience though it was a lot of waiting.

    Brunch place in the Marina district along busy Lombard St. They have a nice interior with comfy ambience. I ordered the waffle and fried chicken steak. The steak was good but I didn't like the gravy that much. The waffle was just average tasting.

    guest: 5  Waiter automatically took it upon herself to add 20% tip because there was 6 people when on the table it clearly states 5 guest

    Service needs to improve. Had to flag down a waiter to get our order taken. Then once again flagged a waiter to see how much longer for our food after 45 minutes passed. Asked for our tab and to our surprise, the waiter added 20% because there was 6 people, when actually they only served 5 plates the sixth person was a 1 year old child who ate from my plate. Just reviewed the tab and it states 5. How rude of the waiter to take it upon herself to charge 20% tip!

We…read morecasually stroll from our beautiful hotel (because we overslept the 1st floor breakfast buffet offering) to a corner restaurant -"Sweet Maple". The line was 20 people PAST the bus stop. I asked a passing waitress how long was the wait--(30 minutes she said confidently). I had ZERO faith in that estimate. I was wrong. About EVERYTHING. The Host was a genius. Our waitress was a royal. Her serving team was the Kentucky Derby of thoroughbreds racing to place the silverware, condiments, used dishes, and refilled coffee going. The food tasted Michelin level. I can SAY that because we had eaten dinner at an actual Michelin rated restaurant the night before. (No Yelp rating needed because they ABSOLUTELY deserved it= NARI) I had a FRIED French Toast BECAUSE it cannot sit waiting to be served. My daughter had Eggs Benedict and the granddaughter had fresh fruit, fresh squeezed OJ in an ADULT glass (because she is a Big Girl now). While we paid our tab we heard a woman scream "I'm giving this restaurant a ONE STAARR REVIEW on YELP because of this WAIT!!!" OMG I thought someone had been ROBBED--but..on THIS Mother's DAY..it was only a spoiled young lady with poor manners. For me...now at a point in life that WAITING anywhere for anything is a PERCENTAGE of TIME I have LEFT to live...this breakfast was easily worth the time that it cost in human terms. Go any time you got a Mom, Grandma, Dad, offspring, first date or best friend you want to share a moment in time with early in the day over food and drink. No waiting worth mentioning. Thanks

The Bloody Marys are delicious, they have a solid beer and wine selection, and the service is warm and friendly. Now for the not-so-amazing. The coleslaw is bland, watery, and served in a little plastic takeout container. The small tables feel cluttered with oversized sugar, salt and pepper shakers, bowls of foil-wrapped butter, extra utensils, napkins, and hot sauce, leaving very little room for your meal. Even the water is served in large plastic cups, which makes it feel more like a backyard cookout than a restaurant. The catfish po' boy is flavorful, but it's built in a way that's difficult to eat. My first two bites were nothing but bread, the third was tomato, and it wasn't until the fourth bite that I finally got to the catfish--by then the tomato had already slipped out. It's delicious, but you'll probably have an easier time tackling it with a fork and knife. Overall, there's a lot of heart at Brenda's. The food is comforting, the atmosphere is welcoming, and despite a few quirks, it's a place I keep coming back to when I'm craving Southern comfort food.
