    Tom yum reduction
    Nancy H.

    Came here for a late brunch on Saturday and luckily there was no wait. Parking was a little tricky though, I ended up parking in a nearby neighborhood and walking over. For the table, we ordered the Tom Yum reduction, pandan brioche toast, and pandan pancakes. The Tom Yum dish wasn't bad, it had some nice citrusy, tangy flavors inspired by the classic Thai soup, but it didn't stand out much. The pandan brioche toast unfortunately missed the mark for us. The toast itself was extremely dry, which made it hard to enjoy even with the pandan sauce. The pandan pancakes were decent with a light sweetness and soft texture, but overall nothing particularly memorable. Service was standard and the food came out at a reasonable pace, and the place itself has a nice atmosphere. That said, the food didn't quite live up to the hype for us. Not terrible by any means, but you can probably find better brunch options elsewhere in the area.

    Chicken Curry
    Lauryn T.

    I have been wanting to try Peak for a while since it opened on the West End. Went during a random weekend, we got seated right away which was nice. We ordered the yellow curry with chicken and drunken noodle. Both delicious and fantastic classic Thai dishes! The service was amazing, the waitresses were attentive and accommodating to what we needed.

    Seafood tomyum omurice
    Julia S.

    I absolutely loved the food here. I love brunch, I love Thai food--and Thai brunch is kind of a no-brainer. Everything we tried was really good, and while the dishes themselves are clearly Thai brunch-style (so not traditional in form), the flavors were very authentic. That balance was actually what made it so enjoyable. The standout dish for me was the tom yum seafood omurice. I still think about it sometimes--it was that good. Savory, tangy, loaded with seafood, and the sauce was just perfectly done. We also ordered the soup potato fries, which were crispy, fresh, and super satisfying--honestly a great side. And of course, we had to get the boat noodle soup, since it's my husband's favorite and not something every Thai restaurant offers. Their version was very flavorful and easily one of the better ones we've had. In general, places that serve boat noodles tend to be more authentic, and this one definitely delivered. If this spot weren't all the way in Alameda, I'd probably be here all the time. If you're into Thai food and brunch, this place is absolutely worth checking out.

    Salmon Egg Benedict
    Felix D.

    Came here on a weekend lunch and plenty of seating in the restaurant. I also want to thank the staff member for being friendly. We were able to get the khao soy-- make sure to check with staff about availability. So, so good. Having the fried chicken to dip in the broth is a perfect combination. The pickles help cut through the rich flavors. The pad see ew is a classic dish that satisfied our rice noodle craving and the benedict was delicious, perfectly yolky and plenty of tater tots to snack on. The space is well-decorated and bathroom was clean. I would definitely come back.

    The food at Peak was super incredible! The service was amazing and we felt like the staff was very kind and personable, and made sure that we were well taken care of. The food was all really good and well plated. The tom yum reduction was my favorite but honestly, everything was really really good! Ambiance was light and quaint! Would definitely love to come back again!

    Smoked Duck Benedict
    Sherry G.

    When I saw the menu for this place, I was so excited. Everything sounded delicious. So good, in fact, that I thought there would be a line. Fortunately, there were quite a few tables available, so we were sat immediately. My table of two ordered the following: Smoked Duck Benedict - The duck was dry. The egg was fine, and the tater tots were okay, though could've been slightly crispier. Chocolate Ferrero Rocher Pancake - I should've read the details. I thought it was going to be Ferrero Rocher batter, but it was simply pancakes that were slightly better than IHOP with hazelnut chocolate cream on top. I would've preferred that the pancakes were layered with the cream (like a cake), so the cream could add more sweetness throughout the bite. Overall, this place has great promise, but the execution was average. I do like that they have reusable foodware (see Eco Notes below).

    Cute brunch/thai restaurant in Alameda! The menu has typical American brunch options as well as Thai lunch specials. Prices were on par with Bay Area restaurants. Flavors were really good and large portions. Stand out was the fried chicken and fried rice - the seasoning was really delicious and memorable. Chicken here is white meat - yay!! Service was prompt and she frequently topped off our waters. All items were presented soon after ordering. No complaints at all! I wouldn't make special effort to return but definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. No outside seating. Metered parking along the street.

    Had an excellent brunch here. Everything is delicious and beautiful. Extensive menu of classics, unique twists, and Thai food. Smoked duck Benedict - SO tasty. The pesto was a surprising pairing to me, but it went together so well. The smoked duck had great flavor and the eggs were poached on the more undercooked side with slightly runny whites, but I prefer that to overcooked yolks. Pandan brioche - such good flavor. The toast itself is thick and soft, and the pandan sauce is so yummy. Drinks - really fun low ABV cocktails Can't wait to come back and try more items!

    Pandan Toast
    Maikhanh H.

    Food: The pandan toast was a definitely the standout. The pandan flavor was rich and spot on. The pa kee mao had good spice and texture, though it leaned a bit too sweet for me. The tom yum reduction was creative and unique, but didn't quite hit as a standout dish. The menu is really extensive, which makes me want to come back and explore more next time. Ambiance: The space itself has a nice vibe. It is clean and comfortable enough to enjoy a longer meal. It feels like the kind of spot that works for both casual brunch and trying something new with friends. Service: This is where things fell short. The food took quite a long time to come out, and overall service was noticeably slow. It's a shame, because the kitchen is clearly putting out good dishes, but the experience would be much better with more attentive and quicker service.

    Peak Alameda may be one of the best-executed Thai food we've ever had. From the rich, layered flavors of the Tom Kha soups to the pleasing Smoked Duck Curry or the Trout & Apple salad to the Pandan Toast dessert, dishes show their individuality. Clean flavor profiles, good portions, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a cheerfully-lighted dining space have made our trips to Peak Alameda a joy.

    Thai food and bottomless mimosas? Say less! I actually found this place on social media and was a bit excited that a new Thai spot opened up...and for brunch! We came here with reservations for a birthday group. I looked over the brunch menu and everything sounded good, but once we looked at their regular Thai menu, enough was said. We all decided to order the traditional Thai dishes. -Fried calamari 4/5 -Fried rice with fried chicken 5/5 -Basil crispy pork belly 5/5 -Thai boat noodle soup 5/5 -Drunken noodles 4/5 -Sweet sticky rice with ice cream 5/5 Mimosas all around 5/5 When I say everything was delicious and authentic, I left with food coma and am still dreaming about it. They also had chili oil, which was just the icing on the cake. The service was also amazing! A few people came by to check on us, and we felt very welcomed. I can't wait to go back.

    Fried chicken eggs Benedict
    Helen W.

    We came here for Father's Day brunch and I really enjoyed it. There were definitely a couple of favorites and would love to come back and try some of their other items. The restaurant was small and set up with a bunch of small tables. But I'm sure they can accommodate large parties by putting some of the tables together. Everything was really good with the exception of the smoke duck. The slices of the smoke duck were really thin so it actually dried it out and tasted more like a jerky.

    Second time at Peak. This time my partner and I decided to pop in for brunch before running Saturday errands. We shared the avocado smash with added salmon, and my partner of course got his usual side of bacon. They do a very good avocado smash here. Generous serving of both avocado and salmon. The side of greens comes with some sort of basil dressing which I really liked. I would enjoy that dressing on pretty much anything. On my previous visit here, my friend and I shared a smoked salmon Benedict, which was also very good, and the side of tater tots it came with were some of the best tots I've had. So A+ for the food. Good flavors, fresh ingredients, and generous portions. Service was good. They could use some additional staffing with the popularity this place has gained. On this Saturday, it was a full house. Sound absorbers would also be a good investment. Located in one of Alameda's many older buildings, sound bounces all over like crazy, and with a larger crowd the noise can get intense. Metered parking on Webster is often sparse, but look for parking on the side streets. I'm glad to see how far Webster St./Alameda's West Side has come over the years, and enjoy supporting the businesses on this side of town. We will be back at Peak. Next time I want to try the lunch menu, which looks very good.

    1465 Webster St Alameda, CA 94501…read more I had a fair experience here on a Sunday morning for breakfast. I had a day planned that included cleaning the garage, so I figured a big breakfast would be good. I walked in just before 9am, and the place was empty. A waitress greeted me and told me to sit anywhere. It's actually hard to pick a table when the place is empty. Cape 7 has a fairly large dining room. It used to be a Sizzler Restaurant. Before Cape 7, it was "Shell Shock." Cape 7 never changed the Shell Shock decor, so it has a nautical theme. A pirate stands guard by the restrooms. So I sat at a booth by the window. I sat back and the bench seat was broken. A gentleman raced over and switched the bench seats. Wow, you have to be careful when you sit down at Cape 7. I ordered a Denver Omelette w/ hash browns, a side of Pancakes, and Coffee. It took about 10-min for my food to come. By 9am more customers came in. After my food arrived, I didn't see a waitress or waiter for 20-mins. Then the owner arrived, and a waitress checked on my table every 5 mins. The Denver Omelette was made with 4 eggs. The serving size was pretty large. The two pancakes were a bit dry. I needed more butter and syrup. Instead, I used alot of jams (that were on the table). The food was okay, I might come back for breakfast again. Off street parking lot in back.

The French toast combo was basic. The sausage links were under cooked, the over medium eggs were more over easy and the French toast took too long.

The clam chowder stole the show for us: poured tableside, rich but not heavy, and full of flavor. For entrées, the seafood pasta was fantastic, the lobster rigatoni was delicious (just wished for a bit more lobster), the ribeye was cooked perfectly, and the lamb--while tasty--could've used a touch more time.

I was surprised that I didn't have to hold the reservations with a credit card which was nice. We arrived a few minutes early and waited just a few minutes before our table was ready. As soon as we sat down the hostess asked if we needed any waters. Our waiter Jacob also came around right away to see if we wanted to order any drinks, we ordered the old fashioned, the Mai tai special, and margarita. Drinks came back pretty quick which was good. All the drinks tasted pretty good. For starters we ordered the calamari for the table, fruit salad, clam chowder, and a wedge salad. The calamari came out first, it was cooked perfect, had good flavor to it, the Brussel sprouts mixed with it was tasty, and the lemon sauce that came with it was refreshing. The clam chowder was excellent but it was more like a cup than a bowl. The wedge salad was okay, I've never had eggs in my wedge before, and it could use some better bacon bits or whatever it was for the bits of meat. The fruit salad was great. For our entrees we ordered the Ribeye, the Lamb chops, the Pork chop, the New York or Sirloin, and the Duck Breast. The good thing is that all of the entrees came with sides versus a la cart. The entrees came out after a while which wasn't too bad. It seemed like they only had one waiter taking orders for all the tables. Ribeye, Lamb Chops, Pork Chop Sirloin, and the Duck Breast were cooked perfect, med rare, and great flavor on all the meats. The ribeye was a little tough which was weird since it was cooked perfect., so I don't why that was. All the sides (cream spinach, mashed potatoes, corn, brussel sprouts) were very good. For dessert we shared the Strawberry Shortcake and the Churros. Two great desserts, fluffy bread, tasty strawberries, the sauce was perfect, the churros came out hot, nice crunch to them, and the flavor was great. Overall, a great place to have dinner. The restaurant has plenty of seating. We go all around the bay area and I believe prices are pretty high for drinks, soups, salads, and desserts. We didn't have any Italian food but looking at the menu, they could be just a tad high as well. Our waiter Jacob did a great job.

First the outdoor seating was plenty and sunny or shaded options there was lots of seating outside and perfect for my dog (the waiter brought us water for her which was nice and unexpected). The hostess and waitress were very very kind with nice smiles and good vibes. I read many comments saying the potatoes were inedible and I strongly disagree, maybe we caught them at a good hour around 12:30 on a Saturday but the potatoes were perfect! Not dry, and actually seasoned with a little chili but not spicy! It was soo yummy I kept stealing some of my boyfriends who ordered the smoked salmon omelette, the eggs were fluffy and soft and the salmon added excellent flavor. My French toast was ok, a little wet inside for me and kinda had an eggy taste which I personally don't like but I understand that's the risk when ordering French toast, however I thought there could've been more fruit or seasoning to it. It's also a bummer that you have to pay $7 extra for 3 pieces of bacon it would be nice if the plate came with bacon and eggs. The beignets were fluffy and delicious with the chocolate sauce which again shouldn't be an extra $3 charge in my opinion. The waitress took off the mimosa for my bfs birthday which was very nice.

The only thing was that the potatoes that were paired with the Benedict tasted like they had been reheated. They were super dry and wilted. The others tasted fine.

Since I don't eat pork and they didn't have turkey bacon available that day, I ended up getting a piece of chicken with it and a large coffee. The coffee was excellent--a nice big diner-style cup and really good quality. You can tell why people come here regularly just for coffee. The French toast was really good and came topped with strawberries and raspberries, which I wasn't expecting but was a nice touch. The eggs were fresh, and the chicken was flavorful--I added a little Tapatío and it hit the spot. The atmosphere was great too: very clean, welcoming, and the staff were friendly and engaging. The only two small drawbacks for me were: * The portion size felt a little small. I would have loved maybe a couple more pieces of French toast or a slightly bigger portion overall. * There didn't seem to be table-side coffee refills. It looked like if you wanted another cup you had to go back to the counter and order again. Aside from those minor things, the overall experience was very good. I'd give it about a 9 out of 10. I'll definitely be coming back to try other things on the menu--maybe an omelet next time. If you're in Alameda and looking for a good breakfast spot with great coffee, West Cafe is definitely worth checking out.

    In my opinion, this place is the best choice for breakfast. We went on Mothers Day, and I'll tell…read moreya at 7:30 in the morning this place was packed, there was only one open table when we got there. We took that as a good sign. We were sat right away, waters placed in front of us and we were asked if we want coffee right away. Within a minute we were sipping on hot coffee that was decent for dinner coffee. For our food: My partner ordered the Eggs Benedict with hash browns. She said it isn't the best she has ever had, it's a close second. They give a thick slice of Canadian back, the sauce was a tad bit salty, but overall really good. I ordered to the eggs, bacon, home potatoes, and Toast: the gave like 5 thick sliced of bacon. My eggs were cooked the way I like them. The home potatoes were so good, crispy and cooked all the way. It was exactly what I was craving. When going to get breakfast at a restaurant, I believe pancakes for the table to share is a must. So we ordered the short stack, which is 2 pancakes. These were the best pancakes I've ever had. Thick and fluffy but light and airy. They melt in your mouth. This is my new go to spot when I get that craving for a restaurant style breakfast.

It's got that timeless diner feel, but with some great new updates! * The Food: The waffles are just as delicious as I remembered. If you're craving classic, no-fuss breakfast food with huge portions and reasonable prices, this is the spot. * The Space: It looks like they've expanded! We were seated on the patio, which was super comfortable and airy. * Dog-Friendly! This was the best surprise--they actually have a dog food menu tacked right on the post! I didn't have my pups with me this time, but I'm 100% bringing them for brunch next weekend.
