Stopped by for lunch on a weekday and, although it was busy, I was seated fairly quickly…read more Many options to choose on the menu. After asking for recommendations, decided to go with the Bacon and Cheese Croffle and Strawberry Matcha. My food was ready fairly quickly after my order was placed and the dish was nicely presented. Fresh green salad, crispy bacon, cheesy eggs, and 2 croffles - quite filling and good. Service was good in that they checked on me often. I'd definitely return to try other menu items.

I was torn between getting a sweet, simple or savory dish since everything sounded so good. I ended…read moreup getting simple (or so I thought), but my omelette was so light and delicious. What was the cherry on top for me was the sweet potato tots which lives rent free in my head! It's so crispy and has the nice natural sweetness to it that you don't even need ketchup! What was a second contender for my order was the chicken and waffle which looked so crispy and well presented... and definitely what I'm going to get next time! Restaurant is a bit small so it can feel cramped. However, service was very quick. Parking is also hard since there is only street parking available so plan accordingly!

Reading the other reviews, I had some a little bit of mixed feelings going in, but I am happy to…read morereport that we had a wonderful brunch here on a busy Sunday morning. Our host was very attentive in managing the daunting looking long line in front of the restaurant, but no matter what, it only took about 15-18 minutes for us to get seated. She hands out menus for you to study before you get inside. Good call. Once seated, you'll enjoy a bright contemporary interior with the usual light wood accents and pretend ivy leaves along a wall or two. The seats are comfy with the wooden looking tables, but best of all, we enjoyed our selections to the fullest. Busy energetic vibe here! Even with a relatively full restaurant, it only took about 10 minutes after our orders for our entrees to appear before us. While I love fried chicken in all its forms and styles, my tummy wanted something somewhat healthy for me, so I chose the... The WHITEOUT - Egg White Omelette with spinach, basil, mushrooms, little bits of red peppers, melted mozzarella on the inside with a healthy amount of feta cheese sprinkled on top. I wasn't expecting too much, but this was surprisingly good down to the last bite. For sides, I went with the default "rainbow" potatoes, which were basically diced fried red and white potatoes and the default mixed greens salad with a vinaigrette dressing. Both sides were the perfect contrast to the eggs and melted mozzarella and spinach. YUM. Easy 5/5! YUZU LEMONADE - enjoyable with a bit of mint leaf, maybe I'll ask for a little less ice. I wanted something a bit more Yuzu, but this was decent. (3.6/5) My dining compatriots enjoyed the Vegan Lover great tofu!), Thai Tea French Toast, Ube Pancakes and Chicken Croffle. No complaints from the gallery! =) Nice presentation throughout and caring cheery service! I'm looking forward to coming back here again soon to try out the Yaki Udon, which was my runner-up to my meal selection today!

Delicious food! We ran in before closing and they were nice enough to let us get a bunch of…read moreempanadas to go. We got two each of the quito beef (it's sweet b/c of raisins, you have to try it!), spicy chicken, spinach w/cheese, and mushroom w/cheese. They were all delicious! Also, we got one of each of the sweet ones as well; guava w/ cheese, and nutella. They offer red & green sauce. Red is mild, green has some punch and twang. Both tasty. The empanada dough is the same for each I think; just the right amount of flakiness to keep it light without exploding, and still have a little bit of doughy chew. Perfection! I won't pretend I know anything about Ecuadorian cuisine but I know this was super yummy and I'll be back! Who doesn't love a good meat pie from any culture?

My husband and I came here for breakfast-the portions are generous, so we split a Nina's breakfast…read moreburrito and a plate of plantains with cheese. This is only my second time in my life, having plantains, but I like them. There's just enough starch, and they are fried so they are a nice replacement for the traditional hash brown. The inside dining space is small, but if it is nice out, sit outside by the water. In the morning, you can watch the birds and the kayaks; in the afternoon, you can watch all the boats go by. I recommend sitting outside. They do serve dinner, but only on the weekends, but they are working on their schedule so that they can be open longer hours during the summer. We will come back and try their dinner.

Food was very fresh, and the portions were generous - two dishes were enough for two. We ordered…read morethe Pear & Walnut Salad and the Baked Brie, and both were packed with flavor. The restaurant was kind enough to split the salad and brought it in 2 plates. The baked brie was hands down my favorite, and the combination of fresh pears and caramelized walnuts was also so good. The restaurant has a cozy, rustic cabin feel that makes it a great date night spot. They even bring out a candle for the table in the evening, which adds a nice touch. The staff were warm, attentive, and very polite throughout our meal. The restroom was clean, and finding street parking right outside was easy enough. It was surprisingly quiet on a weekday evening, though I have a feeling it's much busier on weekends. Overall, if you're looking for fresh, flavorful food with lots of healthy options in a cozy setting, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try

Recently I dined at Farm House. It was not the best…read more We ordered the baked Brie, short rib, bucatini pasta with wild mushrooms and buttermilk fried chicken. The baked Brie was so gooey and paired well with the crackers, garlic, arugula and fig jam on the plate. It's a lot of fun because you get to put all the toppings on your piece of Brie. The short rib was tender and the sauce was rich, but way too bitter to my liking. The wild mushroom pasta was creamy and delicious, but could be enhanced with a bit of acid. The fried chicken was juicy. It was served with 3 cheese macaroni, corn bread and parsley. I didn't know what to do with the parsley. Overall, the meal looked and sounded better than it tasted. It'll be a while until I come back.

I know that's not a typical request, but Daniel handled everything smoothly and made the process incredibly easy. My wife also shared that she had a wonderful experience. Daniel was attentive to her food allergies and showed extra care toward our baby, which meant a lot to our family. The level of service Daniel provided, both in accommodating my unusual request and in taking such great care of my wife and baby, was truly appreciated. Thank you for going above and beyond!

The Breakfast Club @ San Mateo location has a nice ambience with a spacious setup and both indoor…read moreand outdoor seating. The atmosphere is lively, although the music can be quite loud. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. After we were seated, no one came back to take our order or even offer water for about 15-20 minutes. When I eventually gave the server feedback about the long wait, the response came across as somewhat rude and dismissive rather than apologetic. The food itself was average--nothing particularly memorable--and one of the items we ordered was completely missed. Overall, the place has a good setting and potential, but the service, food quality and attention to customers need significant improvement. For a breakfast/brunch restaurant in a great location, I would expect much better hospitality and order accuracy.

I stopped in front of their coffee shop and run back forth saying that my baby is sleeping, let me know when it is ready. So the cook bought my sandwich to the car even though I didn't ask for that. Awwww as postpartum mama who did not have her breakfast and coffee at 11am, I was so touched by their excellent service! Coffee was so smooth and my sandwich like my grandma did - so yummy! They just earned forever customer! :-)

We've tried a good number of things on the menu and the main thing for me is that even though the prices are not steep, the food portions are quite small. Even the bagels are not standard-sized bagels, they're smaller and feel more like a mini bagel. Whenever I order any rice dish, I'm never full. Taste is average at best across everything I've tried. So even though it's not expensive, it doesn't feel quite worth it. The drinks are good, I've enjoyed most of what I've tried. The space is pretty big and open, good for working or hanging out and the staff is usually friendly. The only time I've had a negative experience with service was with the owner or manager (not sure), she was a bit rude and stand-offish.
