We recently celebrated my abuelita's 83rd birthday here, and it was such a wonderful experience. The restaurant is beautiful, open, and aesthetically pleasing. The service was friendly and attentive, and our food came out surprisingly fast. Every dish we ordered was not only beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious. It's rare to find a place where the food looks this good and actually tastes just as amazing. We had a great time celebrating with family, and the atmosphere made the occasion feel extra special. This has easily become one of my favorite brunch spots in the East Bay, and I can't wait to come back. read more

Found this place with some friends on a Monday morning and it was so good I can't wait to go back! When we arrived there was a slight line out the door and throughout our entire meal maintained a line through the doors. The inside is a bit smaller but very well maintained and decorated so cute. They were very busy but with good reason everything was amazing. Everyone in our group ordered something different so we could get a feel for the variety they offered and everyone enjoyed their meals so much the table was quiet. Service was a tad bit long and we were surprised since it was Monday morning but now we understand why. It is locally owned so please be patient with wait time as it is a smaller staff but the wait is beyond worth it. Even though I don't live in Berkeley this will easily be a go to spot any time in the area. read more

A cute brunch spot on Solano with a menu that makes you want to come back and try more. Went today with Face for breakfast after wanting to try this place since Monday. Luckily there was no line and we were seated immediately. I ordered the Carb Platter, which came with French toast, a croffle, waffle, fruit, berries, a creamy dipping sauce, and a side of bacon. The French toast was definitely the standout for me -- really flavorful and well done. The waffle had a nice crisp texture, and the croffle was buttery with good flavor as well. The bacon unfortunately missed the mark. It was very limp and chewy instead of crispy, almost like it had been boiled rather than cooked properly. Face ordered the California Omelette, which came with potatoes topped with a garlic pesto situation that was honestly really good. For drinks, I had the caramel latte, which was decent but could've used a little more sweetness. Face ordered the strawberry matcha latte, which had an adorable bear-shaped matcha ice cube on top -- super cute presentation -- though she also felt it could've used a bit more strawberry flavor and sweetness. Overall, definitely a place I'd come back to because there were several other things on the menu I'd like to try. Street parking only and metered, so plan ahead a little. Also realized this is where the old pastrami spot used to be -- RIP read more

We came on a random afternoon - and got lucky with a table right away! Almost immediately after, the place started filling up. Definitely a great new addition to the community. Staff was kind, prompt. Checked on us appropriately without being intrusive and vice versa. Plenty of parking including meter and street. Portions are HUGE! The star of the show was the carb sampler (and the side of potatoes dare i say). And don't skip out on the coffee/ other drinks. Otherwise, definitely a good (but not amazing) brunch. Still would come back. Plenty of space to catch up with a friend. Clean. read more

I have been here many times. They have good food and good coffee and drinks. They are usually quite busy. And that may be a reason why their servers do not always wear a smile. The last time I went, I think their Salmon Avcardo Toast which I ordered every time I go, no longer taste as good too. read more

Adorable dishes that cater to a variety of palates. This was my second visit but first with teens who enjoyed the Hawaii ish aesthetic. Prices are reasonable for good sized portions. One note would be to separate the meat element from some of the lunch options and make it an add on (chicken in the salad for example) to give vegetarians more options. It gets busy! read more

A solid breakfast/brunch choice on Solano Ave with a lot of seating suitable for small and big groups. There's only street parking so you might have to circle a few times to find a spot. We waited about 15min to be seated. The Garden Scramble and Meat Lovers' Scramble both came with an Acme toast slice and very well seasoned potatoes that had a green sauce that gave them a perfect touch. We didn't like that the avocado in the Garden Scramble was mixed in the scramble instead of put as a topping. The Meat Lovers' Scramble was our favorite for a good balance of meats and veggies, which didn't make it too heavy of a dish. The Spam Fried Rice was also one of our favorites! The sweet potatoes and spam was not a combo we knew we needed in our fried rice but it was delicious! The eggs over it and seaweed on the side brought it all together. We finished with the Carb Sampler. A sample of their French toast, waffle, and croffle topped with fruit and a house made whipped cream. The French toast was the winner of the three for its fluffiness. We didn't think the grapes on the croffle was a good combo, but the croffle itself was really good. Although the staff was really nice, the service was lacking all around. We saw a lot of people around us also trying to flag down a server. We waited some time to get utensils at the beginning of our meal and then again at the end to get our bill. They only checked on us once so they weren't as attentive. read more

I asked the waitress, "is it too early to order spam fried rice?" Nope, let's order it! This little eatery on Solano offers nice breakfast dishes with dome Asian influences on the menu. My spam fried rice was huge with two beautiful fried eggs on top. I needed to crunch up the nori pieces to add some flavor to my liking. Hubby ordered coffee and the two eggs medium with bacon breakfast. The bacon wasn't crispy, wondering if we needed to ask for "crispy." I enjoyed the restaurant with its wall mural of San Francisco where there is possibly another O2 Eatery? It was a pleasant breakfast but I wonder if there might be more bold tastes on the menu? Is the food mildly flavored because of the nice neighborhood it is located in? I will go again to try something else and see if I can answer my own question. read more

Order: 1 Garden Scramble 1 Chicken and Waffle Croissant 1 Iced Matcha Latte with oat milk Visited this place for the first time on 2/27/26, and the food was phenomenal! I was beyond pleased with the quality and taste of everything. It has quickly become one of my top favorite breakfast spots. Their menu offers so many options beyond just breakfast, which I absolutely love. The variety makes it easy to want to come back and try something new each time. As we walked in, a man said, "The food was amazing," and it definitely lived up to his comment. The service was great. The staff was attentive, friendly, and very welcoming. The ambiance is nice, though seating is limited indoors and there's no outdoor seating. When we arrived, the restaurant was pretty full, but we didn't have to wait for a table. The art and decorations are beautiful, and the women's restroom was clean. Parking was definitely a challenge on a Friday at 12 PM since the area is busy overall. There's no designated customer parking--only street parking that you must pay for. We were able to find a spot after looping around a couple of times. 10/10 -- I strongly recommend this amazing breakfast/brunch spot! I'll definitely be back to try more dishes. read more

Nice place for a lunch if your out strolling Solano Ave. Ambiance: 4/5 Nice, modern ambiance in here. Not a huge dining area, but it has a nice vibe. Food: 5/5 I really enjoyed my food. I got a breakfast sandwich and my wife got the veggie scramble. The food was really good and potatoes were cooked perfectly. Price: 3/5 The price was fairly average restaurant price for the area. Not great, not bad. Customer Service: 2.3-3/5 The servers were all very nice, they just got some things wrong and forgot some things. My father-in-law ordered over medium eggs and they brought out scrambled, then we ordered coffee and they didn't bring out any cream or sugar (or even ask if we wanted any) and they didn't come around much to fill up the water jug. It was average busy, not really busy. They definitely need to tighten those things up. Parking: 2/5 It's parking on Solano, so it's going to depend on the day how easy it will be to find parking. And it's paid parking on the street, so don't forget to pay the meter. read more

What a cute restaurant concept! This place gets really busy so you might need to wait a bit for a table to open up. I decided to order the champions bowl, which came with chicken apple sausage, potatoes, cheese, over easy eggs, and toast over a bed of salad. I was skeptical about all these ingredients working well together, but it most certainly did. The plate was both light and filling at the same time, and very delicious, especially when I got a nice bite of cheesy potatoes. If you come here, you must get one of their drinks. I got the iced matcha latter and my daughter got a kids hot chocolate. Both come with a super detailed bear ice cube. The matcha latte is a matcha ice cub bear and the hot chocolate is a chocolate iced bear. The idea is that as you sip your drink and the normal ice cubes melt, your drink won't be diluted because you also have more of the drink flavor blending in at the same time. For the hot chocolate, the bear helped to cool down the overall drink which made it a perfect sipping temperature for my 3 year old. Overall, great brunch spot, would highly recommend! read more

I went here with a party of 4 and it was very packed but I will say that they got us in fairly quickly. It's a tiny little spot but be warned there is a bit of stairs to get to the entrance but overall a lovely spot .. it does get crowded but that's because of how fantastic the food was. I got the chicken and waffles and it was amazing for sure my one of my friends I shared with got a breakfast burrito and that was great too I will say the Carmel espresso was very strong but that could be just me .. I will be back!! read more

This is our family's favorite brunch spot since we first went last fall. The quality of food is very good and the presentation is exceptional. They really go out of their way to make their food beautiful. The iced matcha has these little molded ice bears in them, many of the dishes have edible flowers on them, and they have cute interesting details in their dishware/cutlery. read more

My partner and I were in Oakland visiting, we came here for brunch. Although it was pretty busy/packed inside, we were seated right away. For drinks, he got the Strawberry Matcha and I ordered the caramel latte. Thought it was going to come cold, but the waiter also didn't ask. My partner liked his matcha drink, we thought the bear was a cute touch. My latte was alright. For food, we ordered the carb sampler so we got a mix of french toast, waffle, croissants. Also ordered the scramble. I liked the savory dish more, but there wasn't a lot of flavors going on for both the sampler and the scramble. We both thought it was pretty mid. Felt like we could make the food at home. Looks yummy but missing flavors. Tasted pretty bland. read more

Service and Staff: - Enter the restaurant and someone will greet you to seat you (they were a bit preoccupied when I entered, so I went back to the register to chat with someone about a table) - Their website says they don't take reservations, but I did see a reserved sign on two tables (?) - Every staff member we encountered was kind Food and Drinks: - Breakfast Burrito: this was so delicious. I ordered mine with chorizo, and it was flavorful and filling. It comes with tortilla chips, but I substituted those for French fries (make sure to get their spicy mayo / aioli sauce - that was delicious as well) - Spam Fried Rice: filling and tasty - Iced Matcha Latte: can't get over how cute this was with the green teddy bear ice cube in the drink. The drink was good. I'm not sure what the ice cube was made out of as it didn't really have any flavor - Iced Vanilla Latte: same as the comment about the iced matcha latte Miscellaneous: - Parking is available via street parking - Good for small and large groups. They have small tables and larger picnic tables available - There are stairs and a ramp that both lead up to the front door read more

Second time eating here over the holidays and was so excited to come back and see the new additions to the menu, as well as the adorable drink options (see photos). We came for brunch and I ordered a Chicken Caesar Wrap (comes with fries), and my mom ordered the Eggs Any Style (served with a protein choice of bacon or sausage + served with potatoes + toast). We also ordered a table waffle with berries/whip cream so the kiddo could enjoy some O2 Eatery magic too. The portion sizes are incredibly hearty! The Chicken Caesar Wrap comes with Swiss cheese, avo, slices of chicken breast, Romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, and croutons. For $17 this could be saved for your lunch/dinner later in the day too! As a huge advocate for avocados in everything (haha), I appreciate wraps that come with avo already. So delicious, fresh, and comforting. Fun presentations and just really, really, good food. My mom absolutely loved her plate, and the kiddo left no whip cream reminders behind. Drink-wise, I had to try the frozen matcha bear! I ordered a strawberry matcha latte that came with the most adorable topper that not only is picture-worthy, but also is functional ~ the bear melts into extra matcha for your cup! O2 also has a dinner menu featuring sushi, udon & ramen, bowls, and more. Service is quick and super friendly. (Thank you for the pre-meal sliced fruit for the kiddo!) Metered parking can be found on Solano, but leave a few extra minutes to secure. All in all, can't wait to return to try more delicious items on the menu. Maybe a third review is on the way? read more

As new parents, we found it surprisingly hard to find a baby-friendly brunch place that has indoor seating with wide isles to accommodate a stroller. Fortunately, we stumbled upon this gem of an establishment while browsing through Yelp. Located higher up on Solano on the Berkeley side, parking is available directly on Solano. However, if you are having trouble finding a spot, I recommend pulling into one of the residential side streets to find parking. Service here is very friendly, however it took a bit to get seated despite some open tables. O2 Eatery has a fusion menu. So in addition to the typical American breakfast/brunch fare, you'll also find some Hawaiian and Japanese lunch/dinner entrées as well (ramen, spam fried rice, bento boxes). As a big boba fan, I was excited to see they had boba on the menu. I can get a bit picky with my boba, but thankfully O2's boba was made with fresh ingredients and came with a generous amount of soft, chewy boba. My wife went with the French toast, which consisted of 3 thick slices of toast topped with fresh fruit and a side of syrup. I opted for the Meat Lovers Scramble. Consisting of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, red onion, spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, tomatoes, and jack cheese, with a slice of toast and a hearty side of potatoes, it was both filling and delicious. We especially loved the delicious potato sides that had a nice crispiness to the skin. read more

First off, this place is a wonderful addition to the Solano Ave community and I'm so happy to see it thriving! When we have gone there is usually a little wait. Took a little while for someone to approach us so we went to the back register to ask for help. The waiters, once helped, are really nice and welcoming. The chicken and waffles were great and took my friend a few days to finish-- the portions are great! I had the ribeye bento. The ingredients taste and look so fresh. I loved seeing SPAM on the menu because it's rare to see places include it in dishes. So had to order the SPAM fried rice. The food and drinks that we saw around us were all so colorful. Loved the space and so many cute places nearby to check out while waiting, as there's usually a line. I'll definitely be back. read more

Another packed brunch spot. Come here early to get your name in the list. We waited 30 minutes. Worth it because I wanted the matcha bear lol. They had classic brunch foods with Korean inspiration. It did not disappoint. Ambience was loud and seats were a bit too crowded together. We felt really close to the tables next to us and there wasn't much room to stand up to leave. read more

Came in on a Monday afternoon for a late brunch. Took a while to be served, but I can understand that it was busy, so no real issue there. I'm posting this a little late, but this was around late August. The reason why I'm giving it a low rating is because I unfortunately had an experience that made me hesitant about my food quality. I went to use the restroom and noticed that one of the servers did not wash their hands after exiting the restroom. Even though they were not a cook, they were still handing out the food and it made me a bit disgusted. This made me not want to finish my meal that actually tasted great! Everything was quite tasty...so I'm incredibly disappointed that I saw that, but also glad that I did, because that is not okay! Don't think I would come back just because I think cleanliness is my top priority. read more

4.+ stars Went with my sister on a Sunday. Definitely a line to deal with on weekends. The $21 Egg Bacon Benny was: actually good. Good enough to properly scratch the Benedict itch and at least matched the price as a result. I went with the roasted potato side and that was very nicely seasoned making it top tier when compared to every other potato side I've ordered at dozens of breakfast/brunch joints. My sister went with a non-standard fruit substitution and found it pleasant with everything tasting "in season". Surprisingly, we both felt fuller than we typically do eating Benedict's. Although it wasn't the best Benedict for either of us, there is definitely a reason people wait in line here. Can come back again and explore further. read more

O2 Eatery - Eggs Benny - Smokey Salmon Benny carb sampler and Eggs Benny - Benedict Royale - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Berkeley, California

Absolutely cute decor. You can tell someone really put thought into the space as everything matches. The coffee mugs match the planters!! Service was attentive and courteous. Food was delicious and pretty!! They took the time to plate everything and waitstaff take the moment to place the plate in front of you to enjoy the prettiness. The menu had a wide variety and I initially had trouble picking. Picked the Smokey Sunny as I still hadn't figured out how to make poach eggs. Turned out to be a great choice. The Benedict was perfectly balanced in flavor and texture with the spinach, bacon, runny egg and light hollandaise sauce. Only complaint was that there was too much food on the plate so that it made it a tad difficult to navigate the Benedict. The house potatoes is lightly battered and it's delicious!b perfectly spiced and fried. Totally worth the calories!! My son dug into their French toast and tore through it all in record time. A testament to its tastiness!! Only complaint: portions are too big, food is too good, I ate too much!! read more

We came for brunch on a Saturday so there was a wait but things moved pretty quickly and we were seated within 15-20 minutes of putting our name down. We ordered the meat scramble with gluten free bread , chicken and waffles, and the smokey bacon benedict as well as 3 iced coffees. All the iced drinks come with a cute iced bear which added such a cute touch. The food was really good. I like that they use Mariposa Bakery GF bread and I like how perfectly cooked the fried chicken was in the chicken and waffles. The eggs benedict was also really good. I liked that they added avocado to it and that they put the perfect amount of hollandaise sauce. Service was good and the staff were really nice and accommodating. Cant wait to come back and try the spam fried rice and breakfast burrito! read more

Just stopped by randomly this morning and it ended up being such a nice surprise. The food was honestly amazing everything tasted really fresh, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully put together. You can tell they care about quality, not just presentation. The space itself is super cute and cozy, with a relaxed vibe that makes you want to stay a little longer and just enjoy your meal. It didn't feel rushed at all, which I really appreciated. Overall, it's one of those spots that feels both comforting and a little special at the same time. Definitely a place I'd come back to and recommend if you're in the area. 1000/5: smoked salmon benny (OMG, so good can't say anything you have to try it yourself) 5/5: chicken & waffles (very juicy) 4/5: iced Americano (it is ok) 3/5: fresh-squeezed orange juice (pre-squeezed so it's a little bit bitter) read more

This place is one of our favorite breakfast spots. We've been coming here more regularly and each time we come it's gotten more popular. Their food is excellent. I have not gotten anything I didn't like. My husband loves their potatoes. Their service is excellent but I think sometimes they are a bit short handed. The restaurant itself is bright and vibrant. The noise level is excellent. With a full house I'm still able to carry on a conversation without having to shout. One of my favorite item here is the Garden Scramble but I decided to try something different. The chicken and waffles was really good. My one suggestion is that maybe putting a waitlist table/stand at the entrance of the restaurant. It was quite busy today and a bit chaotic when trying to get on a list for a table. read more

O2 Eatery - Crispy Chicken & Waffles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Berkeley, California

One of our friends had been here before and suggested that we would all enjoy it. And she was correct! Service was okay albeit a bit slower that I would have liked. We had a table for seven reserved. One person was not able to join us, so it was just the six of us. We were quickly seated, menus presented, and glasses of water handed out. Then we were left alone for at least ten minutes before a server came back to take our orders. The food came out relatively close together. Not something that's always easy to do when it's a larger table. All of the dishes looked quite robust except for my Carb Sampler (which was not small either). Four people ended up taking home leftovers to enjoy later. For my Carb Sampler, I would give it 3 out of 5. It looked good but I can't say that I enjoyed the Croffle. Especially since I ate it last. The best was the waffle. The French Toast needed more egg. To me, the most enjoyable components of a croissant are the flakey crust and the airy center. Flattening a perfectly good croissant in a waffle iron destroys those two components. Don't be a hater, just my opinion. Would I dine here again? If in the area, yes. read more

I had the Breakfast Sandwich with a side salad. The ingredients were fresh and the flavors were decent, but the sandwich felt rushed. There was barely any sauce, and it was messy to eat, which made the experience less enjoyable. Service was also lacking. It was slow overall, our drinks were mixed up with another table's, and water refills took a long time. Between the food being just okay and the service issues, I wouldn't come back. read more

Despite the hour wait to get seated, the food , matcha & service were great. The strawberry matcha was really flavorful best one I've tried so far. Carb sampler great to share between 2/3 people.

How about a proper waitlist? A 1 hour wait and counting when the estimate was 12-22 minutes. This affected everything downstream. Service felt super rushed, no coffee refill, forgot sides, etc. our server was very nice and efficient in the time she had, but she was doing double duty as hostess and table clearing. All easily solved with more conservative waitlist or better staffing or both. Food was fine except my eggs were a little cold. read more

Very disorganized for getting your name down on their waitlist and then it took a long time to get seated. Overall, it was not a good value for the money. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with potatoes and an iced matcha latte. The breakfast sandwich was average and could have used more sauce and seasoning. I read so much about the chimichurri that they put on their potatoes, but I barely got any. A few tiny dollops covered some potatoes and the vast majority I ate dry or with ketchup. The matcha latte was good and the matcha ice cube bear was unique. The matcha bear won't melt fast enough to be able to mix into the drink before I finished it. Service was very poor. We were constantly out of water trying to flag someone down and when we did, they would forget. We received a different table's drink order which we didn't touch and sent back. Food was also slow to come out. read more

I visited here for lunch. Scanning around at what other people were eating I noticed a lot of people eating the burger. I ended up ordering the chicken caesar wrap. The wrap was good. It had good amounts of chicken breast, lettuce, avocado, and dressing. I was really impressed by the fries that came with it. It was crunchy and salted well. The fries stayed crisp throughout the entire time I ate it. I will need to come back again to try the hamburger, so that I can get the fries again. read more

Second time here. Food was good and fresh like last time. However, dining room service lacking again. First time, we came shortly after open and service was slow and attention to our table was lacking (ie had to ask for coffee refills/water, etc.) and that took a long time right after open. This time, came in the middle of breakfast rush and service was even worst. And they were the same staff as last time so either they can't manage a dining room when busy or they didn't learn or improve by experience. The higher rating is only for the food. Unfortunatley the service drags the place down. Read the two-star reviews and believe them when it comes to service. I really wanted to like this place. I will come back for sure if I'm not on a hurry and willing to wait. And that unfortunately, isn't a luxury I have all the time. read more

Food and drinks were delicious. We were lucky enough to get a seat fairly quickly. Service is good but very slow. Maybe a few more waiters around peak hours would make it go smoother.
