    Team bonding :)
    Lincy H.

    Came back for a friend's birthday brunch and enjoyed the food way more than I did compared to my last visit a couple years back!! We had a reservation for 8 people and split into two groups to do family style. My group of 4 ordered three items and they were all delicious: Son & Garden Omelet - Everything it came with was so good. I felt like the Parmesan cheese in the omelet really complimented all of the different ingredients. The blueberry scone and potatoes were both cooked nicely too. Bibimbap - This comes with a huge fried chicken. The chicken could have been juicier and used less batter. The rice was really flavorful and had a slight kick to it. Ricotta Pancakes - Yum! I always appreciate getting to eat both savory and sweet foods during brunch. This one is perfect to share with others. So glad that the food was just as good as the ambiance this time. Previously I would not recommend this place, but would now recommend it :)

    I had a great experience here at brunch with girlfriends on Valentine's Day. We saw some families getting brunch together too, and a party of little girls having a girls brunch or birthday party or something. Very sweet to see. Highly recommend sitting on the outdoor patio as well. I would say the food was pretty good/solid. Some of it was better at the aesthetics than flavor. I'm a vegetarian who doesn't eat eggs, so I was pleased to learn that they could make the tofu omelette for me without eggs. Instead, it was more of a tofu stir fry with cubed tofu, sun-dried tomato, spinach, cauliflower, and quinoa. It was solid, and a good option if you're in my situation. Very very heavy on the sun-dried tomatoes, so make sure you like that flavor! I was disappointed that they served it with salad instead of potatoes; maybe the potatoes are not vegan? I didn't ask, and I'm sure they would have brought me potatoes instead if I really wanted them, so this is more my fault. My friends absolutely loved their omelette, ricotta pancakes, and gorgeous cookie butter latte special. The wait stuff was kind and helpful, and helped me and my friends take a picture in front of one of their many cute photo displays.

    Ricotta Pancakes, scrambled eggs, chicken sausage

    A group of friends and I came here to celebrate a bridal shower. This was definitely the perfect place - beautiful floral decorations, large outdoor seating area, and instagrammable drinks. 4 of us ordered the ricotta pancakes ($18.95) and opted to make it a "complete meal" by adding 2 eggs and a choice of protein (additional $10). The food was so delicious! The scrambled eggs and pancakes were so fluffy. The chicken sausage was plated on top of jam and at first I was a little suspicious, but it was the perfect pairing! The restaurant was kind enough to let us bring in our own cake for the celebration, but beware they charge $2.50 per person.

    Smoked Salmon Benedict
    Siyi T.

    We went there for a late Sunday lunch and there was still a line. Luckily we were seated quickly in 5min. We got their signature Son & Garden omelette and Smoked Salmon Benedict. Both came with roasted potatoes and fruit slices. The Son & Garden omelette had pork sausage, mushroom, peppers, asparagus and so on, and had quite a lot of flavors! It was also topped with a generous amount of parmesan cheese slices. The roasted potatoes were quite good to my surprise! They were nicely seasoned, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The restaurant shared patio space with a Thai restaurant. The inside was decorated colorfully. It was also conveniently located near downtown Menlo Park with garage parking available nearby. It

    Came here for my birthday brunch on a Friday morning and there was no wait. The menu has so many mouthwatering options. I ordered the Korean eggs Benedict, however there was no English muffin. Silly but the plate was massive and very rich so that would've helped a bit. I'd say order the sauce on the side because it is plentiful as is the meat. You can definitely share this plate! The outdoor seating was very nice with lots of heaters and the decor was charming with plants hanging from the ceiling. Parking was easy as it lines the side of the restaurant. I'm sure this might be different on a weekend morning so arrive early if you can!

    Went on a Saturday around 11am. Caltrain is pretty loud when it passes by. Busy, but we didn't need to wait for a table. Ambience is vibrant, lots of birthday brunches were happening around. Food is fine. I'd come back to bring friends who haven't experienced it yet, but it's probably not a place I'd personally revisit otherwise.

    We came here for lunch and overall the place has a decent, relaxed vibe that works well for a casual meal. We started with drinks and breakfast items. The mimosa flight looks great for Instagram photos, but taste-wise it was just average. The tiramisu latte was fine but felt overpriced for what it was. We ordered a few different Benedicts, including the smoked salmon Benedict, which was disappointing. The salmon tasted fishy and really affected my appetite. One of our friends ordered a Coffee Cloud, but the drink never arrived even though it still appeared on the bill, which was frustrating. For the atmosphere, I'd give this place 3 stars, but the food quality is closer to 2 stars. Based on this experience, I probably won't be coming back.

    Fried Chicken Benedict
    Michael A.

    The food was excellent. We ordered two dishes, the bibimbap and the fried chicken Benedict. I enjoyed the mushroom Demi glacé and the eggs were nicely done. The potatoes were crisp and flavorful. The rice in the bibimbap was slightly overcooked which left it mushy but the flavor and the spice was good. I'd come back for the food but service was slightly lacking. It just didn't feel like the staff wanted to be there and more importantly, wanted me as a customer to be there. I'll be honest, it looked that way for most of the tables around us. To be honest it's an instagram or TikTok worthy video for the aesthetics alone - but not the culinary place you want to be where people truly care about service and food. If the service was amazing this place could easily be a 5 star for me.

    Son & Garden is incredibly Instagrammable, from its floral, pastel decor to its beautifully presented food and drinks. Every dish and drinks you'll want to take a picture of and you'll want to try just about everything on the menu. The food is good but definitely on the pricey side, and it gets very crowded, particularly during brunch hours. Overall, it's a great spot for fun photos, creative cocktails, and a lively vibe, as long as you're ready for the crowds and the splurge. Street parking is available, but could get difficult to find during lunch hours or weekends. The restaurant is directly next to Caltrain, which is very convenient. Overall, Son & Garden is perfect for a celebratory brunch, a girls' day out, or anytime you want great photos, fun drinks, and a lively atmosphere, but just be prepared for the crowds and the splurge.

    Ricotta Pancakes
    Nishika T.

    First time at Son & garden! Their menu is so fun and a bit of a fusion, which is one of my favorite types of food. I ended up getting a ricotta pancake with a bubbly drink. Although you can tell that they put a lot of effort to decorate, since the train was right in the back and we were sitting outside, we had to pause our conversation here and there to wait in the train to pass.

    I had such a great experience at this brunch spot! The moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing weekend meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out just right. The food was the real highlight. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The crabby omelette was cooked perfectly, the french toast was crispy , and the portions were generous without feeling overwhelming. I especially loved their korean benedict that was garnishedwith pickle onion-- you can really tell they put care into every detail. The drinks were cute and creative. Overall, it was an excellent brunch experience from start to finish. I'd definitely come back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious and enjoyable brunch!

    First time at Son & Garden was at this Menlo Park location for brunch with friends on Sunday, Augst 3, 2025. We had reservations for our party of six persons at 12:00 noon. After easily finding street parking on Oak Grove Avenue, about a minute or so walk to the restaurant, I arrived to my friends already sitting at our table. Son & Garden is known for their whimsical breakfast and brunch experiences, so I was looking forward to being immersed in a fairytale setting. Perhaps the location of our table was not in the most decorated area of the venue because all I saw was faux purple wisteria hanging from the ceiling. Never did I see any wall of flowers nor a blue velvet royal looking chair. Bummer. Although I missed out on the effervescent Instagrammable scenery, the place was still very genteel and clean. Son & Garden's menu focuses on morning eats like omelets & scrambles, benedicts, pancakes & french toast, plus lunch & drinks. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any frolicsome fancy beverages, either. Apparently, they skimmed down their menu, no longer serving most of the vibrantly unique offerings from days before. Second bummer. Everyone ordered their respective plates. Linda and I both ordered the Bibimbap ($24.95). I enjoyed the crispy Fried Chicken with the savoury Stone Pot Japanese Rice mixed with the yolk of the fried egg. Linda, on the other hand, didn't enjoy the dish as much, commenting on the "sweet" flavour that didn't seem to appeal to her. Service was nice and friendly. I wouldn't mind returning and ordering the Bibimbap again...with a virgin Coffee Cloud.

The restaurant leans into an elevated New American menu and cocktail-bar vibe. As for the food... it was okay. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out either. I remember feeling like some of the dishes didn't taste as fresh as I was expecting, especially for the price point. The menu sounded more exciting than the actual food ended up being. The biggest thing I remember is that it just wasn't very memorable. When I think back on the meal, I remember the nice ambiance more than any specific dish. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but for the price, I was hoping for at least one "wow, I need to order that again" item. The vibe is great, but the food didn't quite live up to the setting for me. I'd be open to giving it another try, but it's not currently at the top of my list of places to revisit.

The cornbread seems to have been baked and kept in the warmer as it was starting to dry out. The dry aged NY steak was requested medium rare and turned out more like a medium well after sitting on the table for a bit... The NY Steak had a robust meaty flavor. The side of potatoes and char were great. The campanelle pasta was tasty although the pasta may have been a touch over-cooked as the pasta was no longer al dente. There were plenty of mushrooms. The mushroom side dish was rich and rather heavy. The highlight of the evening was the milk jam pudding which was a lighter way to finish off a rather heavy and bold-flavored dinner. ~$110/head after tax and gratuity.

While we were waiting, the manager of the restaurant gave us sparkling wine on the house because he felt bad we had to wait, which we thought was such a thoughtful gesture! We chose this place to celebrate our anniversary and although it was a little bit of wait, the service here already made it worth it.

The duck was probably the only item on our order that we would skip out on next time, but everything else we would definitely get again. The oysters were our favorite item that we ordered! It was topped with an aerated ponzu sauce with a celery oil(?) and that was amazing. Definitely recommend the oysters.

Parking is available in the private lot or on nearby residential streets. Dining is available either inside the dining room, at the bar, or outdoors on the covered patio. Flea Street is featured in the Michelin guide. Our waitress was phenomenal the entire evening, being very sweet and attentive. She was quite talented too! ;) Meal started off with the complimentary biscuit, served with a side of beautiful butter, salt, as well as a piece of carrot. This was decent as the biscuit was merely lukewarm. The lamb chop as a snack was quite tasty. These were sold per piece and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The farmers salad, dungeness crab cake, as well as the cured trout small plates were all quite tasty. Loved how premium and light the farmer's salad was. The dungeness crab cake was super light and tasty too! The cured trout was excellent with the homemade potato chips! The cioppino was gigantic and perfect for sharing. It featured a ton of premium seafood, from clams, mussels, calamari, shrimp, as well as a couple pieces of black cod fish along with a few pieces of toasted bread! Finished off the meal with an apple galette which was tasty and served with a scoop of ice cream which was surprisingly a touch lacklustre... The meal ended off with a couple chocolate dipped strawberries. ~$130/head after 20% service charge and 3% employer benefits surcharge.

    After dropping off Chase at UNIVERSAL PET HOSPITAL for his leg surgery the morning of Sunday, March…read more22, 2026, we decided to go out for breakfast or brunch. Mom recommended RH, THE ROOFTOP RESTAURANT at RH PALO ALTO. She called the restaurant and was able to book a 10 AM reservation for three. Located at the Stanford Shopping Center, we were able to easily and quickly find parking in the spacious lot. We arrived a little early, so walked around the Restoration Hardware showroom for a bit before walking up the stairs to the upscale restaurant perched on the third floor. The mansard space, with its floor to ceiling glass walls and roof, emulates a giant dazzling sunroom with trees growing out of the floor and elegant glass chandeliers hanging above nearly every table. The modern fountain and airy ambiance provide a relaxing setting for a nice meal while soaking in the glam surroundings and sunshine or admiring the beautiful sunsets. Outdoor seating is also available in their wraparound patio with comfy couches. RH PALO ALTO offers elevated American eats, plus beer, wine, and cocktails. The menu leans into opulent, fancified takes on classics, serving decadent dishes like CAVIAR CARPACCIOS (ranging from $18 to $28) and other CAVIAR SPECIALTIES such as GRILLED AVOCADO WITH CAVIAR ($38) and IMPOSSIBLY THIN HOUSEMADE CHIPS & DIP (15g $55, 30g $95). Below are what we ordered: LOBSTER ROLL ($36) - Z found this to be very good, I thought it was meh. The lobster could have used a bigger Dash of Mayo. On the small side. SWEDISH PANCAKES ($18) with fresh strawberries (for an extra charge) - I was disappointed that these pancakes were not served with the traditional lingonberry butter. These were not even warm enough to melt the slices of butter that topped them. KING CRAB ROLL ($58) - Also a petite serving, but this sandwich was tastier than the lobster version. Z said that it was very good, just like the lobster. HERITAGE PORK SAUSAGE ($12) - Flavourful; however, served cold. TRUFFLE FRIES ($20) - Fried to a perfectly golden crisp. RH BELLINI ($18) - Kudos to RH for serving an authentic bellini with genuine peach purée. This cocktail was yummy. Supposedly the BELGIAN WAFFLE was so remarkable to draw Mom back multiple times. Unfortunately, we were told that that they were no longer serving waffles. Mom was very disappointed by this. To boot, service was nothing to rave about. It seemed to be a bit challenging to catch the attention of our waitress to inform her that all of our dishes were served cold. When we finally got the chance to tell her, she didn't say much and appeared to leave us hanging. Later, the manager on duty came to speak with us, replaced most of the cold dishes, and comped an item. Still, this did not remedy Mom's dismay. She said that she will not return.

    Wow. Could not have been happier with the food!…read more Will present the food in the order I would recommend: Banana fritters- soft clouds of fried dough, over some rum dark chocolate sauce. Divine! 7/5 Curry cauliflower over a red non spicy sauce. Refreshing! The flavors blended together with the flavorful but not overpowering flavor, with the well balanced sauce underneath. Could not stop eating it. $17 8/5 Mezze plate - the coconut feta was very creamy and good, I really enjoyed the pomegranate arugula salad with pickled onion and with the pieces of falafel inside. The flatbread was a little hard, but good. The eggplant was good and hummus also good. $32 price a little steep for the platter 6/5 Impossible cheeseburger - classic impossible burger. The standout item was the fries, quite good! Crisp outside and soft inside. 5/5 French toast - ok, a little dry, the berry sauce was good but lacking a little dynamic flavor maybe some citrus? 3/5 Cookie with vegan ice cream. Alas, pastries are still difficult to make well vegan 3/5 Service was a little distracted and hard to order. Bussing was very on top of it. I will return for the top items

    Food is good and the murals are nice however it is pricey for things that don't justify a premium…read moreprice. Beyond products cost more but cauliflower and potatoes don't for example. The portion sizes were ridiculously small...the grilled plate for two for example was really an appetizer plate for a peckish small teenager for $43. Service started out decent, but our male server got a little cold and standoffish after sometime. I don't know if it is because the place got busy or what but we felt awkward. The overall vibe was blase with a we're too cool for you attitude. Staff should be able to handle a busy friday night without ignoring some customers. There wasn't any real table maintenance. We had everything we ordered still on the table for awhile until we flagged down staff a few times. They removed things after knowing we wanted to order more things I felt. The chairs were uncomfortable and the table set up for parties of 4 were too small.

    4.5 stars. This is a sister restaurant to spruce…read more Food is excellent. We sat at the bar for light fare and wine. They serve half glasses of wine so you can pair wine with each course of the meal, which is fantastic. We ordered: - Yellowfin tuna tartare - steak tartare - burger The Yellowfin tuna tartare was my favorite but even though I didn't like potato chips as the vessel for serving the tuna tartare. The steak tartare was fresh, served with egg mixed in. My husband loved it. The burger was juicy and my six-year-old daughter finished the entire burger minus the lettuce and tomato. The food is top quality. For wine, we had the sanger sparkling wine (good one to start the meal), nerello mascalese rose (pretty good) and Sonoma coast Pinot (well structured). Like spruce, Selby has a dark formal ambience. Better for weekend long meals. Service was excellent. We got plenty of gluten free bread with the tartares. The round tables in the bar area is small. Hard to fit more than 2 dishes at one time when you have sharing plates, wine glasses, and water.

Overall, our dinner tasting was enjoyable; we chose: +White Asparagus 'Oscar' - prepared with dungeness crab, jidory egg jam, and a bearnaise sauce +Petrossian Caviar Service - served with jirdori egg jam, creme fraiche, and pickled red onions; you have an option from Royal Baika, Royal Daurenki, Tsar Imperial Ossetra, or do a flight; go for the flight to get a good sampling of it all! +the Pan-Roasted Pacific Black Cod - with lentils du puy, king trumpet mushrooms, and beurre roughe +the Petit Filet - 7 oz; with swiss chard, crispy artichokes, black olive tapenade, and puffed rice +the Passion Fruit Tart - with swiss meringue and preserved kumquats +and, the Cremeux de Citeaux - with local strawberries, marcona almonds, and an olive melba toast Everything was plated well and aesthetically pleasing; we enjoyed the caviar service and the desserts the most. Service was attentive and efficient; the restaurant itself is dim-lit, with dark wood and leather features. The seating was comfortable. +tasting menu +reservations accepted
