Food 5/5: OMG everything we ordered was so gooooood. So good that we forgot to take pictures. Food highlights - mango sticky rice matcha latte: AMAZING. Get this if you are a matcha lover. The combination with the mango and rice milk was so good - cornmeal pancakes: I'm still thinking about these pancakes. So good and the honey citrus syrup under it was good. - biscuits and gravy: so simple, yet done SO well. The flavor of their gravy is so unique! Service: 5/5 the staff were so fun and attentive the entire experience. Food came out so fast too. Ambiance: VERY cute interior and very homey and modern at the same time. Definitely coming back to try their bottomless mimosas and other menu items. read more

Fusion comfort food you can only imagine. Tamales with plantain + calabasa. Bulalo tasting lamb neck with roti. Both dishes keep you guessing before lulling you into a food coma. Also the Ube ice cream sandwich with small pieces of honeycomb is genius. Warm service, exceptional food with ginormous portions. Great vibes and even better R&B music. Phenomenal ambiance. Christopher, Angie set the tone and then Chef Harold definitely delivers. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

The good was just Ok. The service was great but i ordered the chicken and waffles and the waffle was savory and did not complement the chicken. The chicken was a bit dry. My friend ordered the gr m and grits and sent it back because the grits were way too creamy and the texture of like yogurt, not grits. The best thing we had was the pancake and that was corn meal based. I wouldn't visit again, but people seem to enjoy it. read more

Finally came to the Peach! I got the chicken and biscuits with gravy. The biscuits were so soft and the chicken was absolute perfection! The homemade chicken sausage was crispy and savory with subtle hints of sweetness. The homemade guava lemonade was a delightfully refreshing and the dirty Thai tea coffee was well-balanced. And of course we can't forget the soft and moist melt in your mouth bread pudding. The service was fast and attentive. The vibes were light and airy. read more

Loved the congee and shrimp option :) I threw in some mushrooms to heighten that savory content and it was amazing. That curry sauce was yummy. There's vegetarian options available here. Our pancakes were extremely fluffy. Friendly service. Gratuity is automatically added. Lots of room to sit down for families, dates and brunches. read more

Attentive service but you automatically pay 18% tip and it's not listed on the menu or in the restaurant. BLT was good but the side salad for $5 was ridiculously small. A fistful of greens, tomatoes, and red onions. Chicken patties ordered on the side but accidentally put on the BLT. They asked if we want the side we ordered, but charged us twice without informing us. Definitely not worth it for a BLT with 4 chicken patties for a whopping $35. Pretty insane. Been wanting to try this spot for a while but didn't feel hungry and the experience with the side of chicken patties not being on the side and being charged twice plus the auto gratuity leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Bathrooms were clean though. And the chicken and waffles and pancakes looked good. Probably won't be going back here after the experience we had today though, unfortunately. read more

They have changed their menu. Unfortunately I prefer the earlier version. Fried chicken and pancakes was much better than the fried chicken and waffle. Well actually I prefer the pancake over the waffle however the new fried chicken is actually good. When we went, there was no biscuits, apparently they burnt the batch. I had the new pancakes was kinda good but also unsure. The ricotta pancakes I think was much better. I do not foresee myself going back. I truly think they made an error changing the menu. read more

I loved this place!! The interior is sooo aesthetically pleasing -- a great brunch spot. The food was also very good -- not 10/10 but definitely still worth it. I had such a good time here hehe and the service was great, I loved my waiters. I'm definitely coming back here soon. read more

What a beautiful space on Lakeshore Ave. in Oakland. I've been wanting to check out the Peach for quite some time now and finally had the opportunity to do so catching the tail end of Oakland restaurant week. We ordered from the restaurant week menu and I had the Thai tea cinnamon roll and Lucky Peach plate that came accompanied with over easy eggs, crispy bacon, hearty & flavorful taters, and some greens for a touch of lightness. I also opted for the Peach mimosa because..when at the Peach..ya have one! Everything was truly aesthetic pleasing. The dishes were well-thought out and the plating was done just right. Other items ordered for the restaurant week menu were the avocado toast bites and buttermilk biscuits with honey and butter, as well as the curry shrimp and congee and the char siu toast. So basically, one of everything :) The wait staff were gracious and spot on, and the Chef actually peeked over the wall near the kitchen and probably spotted we had one of everything from the restaurant week menu and actually came and sat with us, explaining each of his dishes. Such a cool highlight and experience that's truly never happened to us before. Loved every moment! There's also a pretty outdoor area, and taking a glance at the menu, a really innovative & fun take on all-day brunch. I can't wait to come back to try the Smash Fried Chicken & Pancakes, the Sesame Caesar, and the Lakeshore Lobster Club. All in all, such an enjoyable morning and breath of fresh air for Lakeshore Ave. Can't wait to try the owner's other restaurant Jo's Modern Thai in the Laurel District. read more

Went for their dinner service and it was delish! The vibes low lighting and cozy - perfect for a date night or girls night vibe. The food was yummy! The cornbread was very sweet and if you want to try it, order for dessert and request the sauce on the side. The wings are a must order, as well as the pork belly lettuce wraps. Service was great, friendly and attentive. They are very knowledgeable on the menu and clearly looking for you to have the best experience. We will be back! read more

Listen, I don't give out five stars lightly. My standards are high--blame my mama--but The Peach absolutely earned every single one of them. I rolled in on a Saturday with my friends, and the mission was clear: brunch, good conversation, and a much-needed reset. We started with the obligatory bottomless mimosas, because what else are you supposed to do when you finally have a free Saturday afternoon? The refills were punctual, the bubbly was crisp, and the atmosphere was immediately set. We were laughing before the menus even hit the table. The flow was consistent; they treated that champagne like a valuable natural resource, which, on a Saturday, it absolutely is. I went with the Seasonal Veggie Scramble, figuring I'd try to maintain some semblance of responsibility. The scramble came with crispy potatoes (which delivered on the "crispy" promise) and some excellent sourdough toast. It was delicious, clean, and satisfying. But I'm also a man who believes in life's little luxuries, so I went for the side hustle: a Golden Pancake. This wasn't just any pancake; this was the "NY's famous Diner pancake," served with honey butter and a crucial dusting of lemon zest. That hint of citrus cut through the richness and made the whole thing transcendent. It was the perfect blend of comfort food elevated by attention to detail. I cleaned both plates. The restaurant itself is a medium to large space, but still cozy, with a decent number of tables indoors and a beautiful back patio. It was lively--the good kind of background buzz that signals everyone is having a great time. What really sealed the deal, though, was the service. Our server was exceptional--attentive, funny, and seemed genuinely happy to facilitate our brunch happiness (just the right amount of peer pressure to finish our drinks). This level of service made me completely overlook the automatic gratuity that was baked into the bill. Normally, I raise an eyebrow at auto-grat, but for this kind of excellent, proactive care, they earned it, and then some. It's the kind of place that understands hospitality. If you're looking for a top-tier breakfast and brunch experience where the food is on point and the mimosas don't stop coming, put The Peach on your radar. read more

Great location and environment! Food was deliciously especially the bread pudding and the biscuit and fried chicken

Friendly and attentive staff. Very happy and helpful. Food looked a bit sparse but really had a lot of flavor. Clean and well decorated, with a unique wicker theme that was pretty attractive. Chicken and waffles was a cornbread flavor and was good. Eggs Benedict was one of the few that actually tastes like good hollandaise sauce but unfortunately was pretty skimpy. Next time I'll ask for extra on the side. Otherwise it was very tasty. read more

I came here after the Oakland marathon, maybe not the best idea ha. The place was absolutely packed with an hour wait. We decided to wait anyway, but I'm glad we did. The restaurant is incredibly cute! There is seating indoor and outdoor and the outdoor is just as cute as inside. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and attentive. The food was also good, your typical brunch. All the ingredients were fresh and I left full and satisfied. I'd come again. read more

What really makes this place shine is the team -- Kennedy, Jacquie, Will, Luis, and Diego always make you feel so welcome and taken care of. The service is consistently warm and upbeat, and you can tell everyone genuinely enjoys providing amazing, warm, attentive customer service. The menu is full of brunch classics with a fun twist (and everything is delicious), plus they serve champagne -- which makes any morning feel like a celebration. The vibe and decor are super cute and fun, with a bright, inviting energy that fits Lakeshore perfectly. Also, super kid friendly! It's our go-to neighborhood brunch spot -- highly recommend! read more

The restaurant itself is cute with a nice ambiance, but the seating up front felt a little too crowded for comfort. I came in expecting soul food based on the name, but that's on me for not reading the menu more carefully -- the dishes are definitely more of a modern Asian twist. I ordered the shrimp and grits, but unfortunately, it missed the mark. The food was lukewarm, and the "grits" were rice congee -- not what I expected at all. The bowl was topped with onions and chili oil, but neither added much flavor or heat. The shrimp themselves were cooked well, but the overall dish lacked the richness I was hoping for. I also ordered a lemonade, which came in a highball glass and cost $10 with no refills. For two meals, a lemonade, and a coffee, the total came out to around $80 -- definitely not worth the price in my opinion. I don't mind paying for good food, but this just wasn't it for me. Cute spot, but not one I'd return to. read more

The Peach - Shrimp and grits - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oakland, California

Not a fan. Went in with such high hopes after seeing a review on Boozy Brunch ... BUT ... food fell short. The wait staff was very accommodating; but I came there for food, so ... let's get into it: Portions were "prison food" small. I got The Peach Plate ... 3 eggs, crispy fried potatoes, extra crispy bacon, a side of grits, biscuit, and a coffee and mimosa /Eggs were plain and the smallest assemblage of 3 eggs that I had ever seen /Crispy fried potatoes were just gross. Cold, so not crispy, and the first bite tasted a little like it could have been infused with pee (although total transparency, I've never actually drank pee). /The bacon was neither warm or extra crispy as requested. In fact, it flopped when I picked it up ... a clear indicator of it not being a crispy fry. Sadly only 2 (not very big) slices. /and the grits... good lawd the grits, were sitting in a small bowl, covered in (what I thought was) water. I bravely decided to taste it and was happy that it wasn't bland on first taste; but it was in that second taste that I realized that the this soupy presentation was standing in chicken broth! I thought "what in the tryin' to do too much", was this supposed to be! I had already sent the potatoes back and asked for a biscuit instead, so I just let the grit concoction sit there, pretending to be grits, that didn't understand that they were actually soup! /The mimosa was just as everything else, was portion sized for a child. It was served in a huge wine glass, so the pour looked like it was trying too hard to seem legit. ... the best part was the biscuit. It was huge, nice and crusty on the top, covered with butter and sitting in syrup ... it was the consistency of cornbread but sweet like honey. The coffee was fine. The ambiance was nice. Bright, lots of diversity breaking bread and laughing together, and the music playlist was kinda old school RnB, playing subtlety in the background. So if you just wanna have a DEI morning, out n' about and having coffee and biscuits in a spot that is close to the lake, then that's a decent choice. But you have been warned (at least on The Peach Plate), it's really just mid and the food gives "glorified Denny's" Oh and be aware, they include an automatic 18% tip for the table! I was through. It was only 2 of us, and in most restaurants that automatic charge is reserved for larger parties ... but I was informed (nicely), that it said so in "the fine print" read more

Really nice ambiance and sweet service. Food was regular, nothing particularly different or that would make it a recurring place. Bread was yummy with the egg and bacon and potatoes plate. Overall good. The pancakes didn't taste like Thai tea, the topping was condensed milk and that made it wayyy to sweet as the pancakes were sweet too. Matcha was good but felt the top was mostly foam so not much drink... the tip is included and we didn't notice until adding to it (options on the machine are +%) read more

Delicious food! Try the shrimp & grits!!! It's awesome! A new delicious spot in Lakeshore area of Oakland!

I came for dinner and tried a variety of menu items. The miso cornbread was tasty, but a smidge pricy at $8. The lamb skewers were also rather flavorful, and small. The cabbage app was very small as well but also delicious. Considering these were just apps, the portion sizes were not a deal breaker. For the entree, my friend and I ordered the chicken which was very large and shareable and juicy and delicious. I normally don't like to order chicken because it can be dry or basic but this chicken was pretty special and came with different dipping sauces. I would come back to try other entrees and to try the brunch. It's with a visit! read more

Love the ambiance. Great service. Best pancakes of my life. Perfect brunch spot if you're hanging out by Lake Merritt in Oakland.

Walked in on a Saturday brunch, for a party of 3 we were quoted 25 minutes and got seated at 40 mins. There was a previous table that got seated behind the hostess stand and moved to the patio due to how sunny the table was. The hostess was very nice and explained how the table was sunny and wanted to make sure we were ok. She seemed a little stressed and we were tired of waiting so we dealt with the sunniness. FOOD Smashed fried chicken and pancake - pancake tasted mushy, almost like undercooked. It was flat wasn't fluffy. Didn't taste ricotta at all. The chicken batter was weird, not what I had expected for fried chicken. Smashed Laab burger - another disappointment. The patty was bland and just tasted like ground pork. Lobster club - this was probably the best dish, just toasted bread, bacon with lobster SERVICE was what meh. The runners that brought out the food did not bring butter and syrup with the pancakes, and we had to ask for it but they brought back ketchup and syrup instead. AMBIANCE & DECOR. Yes, it's cute and modern. But they should consider getting some blinds and shades installed. I'm sure lots of people will complain about the sun. Everything sounded better than it tasted. Nothing stood out. Nothing was worth a second time visit for us. 2.5 stars read more

The food was good and solid except for some stellar exceptions like the Thai tea cinnamon roll and the French toast that were delicious. The waitress said the congee was spicy and I found it mild (and I have a low tolerance for spice). The restaurant is super cute and Instagram worthy. Now for the reason for the 2 star review: I couldn't understand the service! It was terrible! I feel that I am a pretty forgiving person but oof!!! We had a party of 4 and 3 of us sat while we waited for the last person to come about 5 minutes later. Before he came, we put in our pretty standard drink orders of coffees and a sparkling lemonade. He came and sat and ordered a Bellini and got his drink before any of ours. Then when ours had come, we had the tiniest splash of milk for 2 cups and the sweetener that I asked for instead of sugar wasn't there. I had to ask 3 times before someone brought it out!! So I basically just had to wait until my coffee was cold to drink it. Then we started to put in our food orders just to be told that one of the items was out. Oh and she added what else wasn't available. I don't understand why we weren't told that at the beginning. So we asked for a minute to regroup and when she came back, we gave her last item on our order and she went over what we ordered and missed items! We were nervous when she didn't write it down. Oh and once we ordered the bulk of our items, 3 of our menus were taken because "it's getting busy and we need them." Then we waited... and waited... and watched people who sat well after us get their food. Then finally food comes to our table, but it wasn't our food! It was for the table next to us! Finally all but one of our items comes out and the waitress tells us that the cinnamon roll was 86'ed because it was taking too long to come out so they stopped servicing it and she would take it off our bill. Then 30 seconds later, what comes out?? A cinnamon roll! We had to ask for small plates to share our food 3 times. The food was delicious but once again, it took multiple asks to get boxes. Then we finally put a card for our bill and paid and the waitress leaves and then a second later, another person comes around to help us close our bill!! We didn't get that much service for things we needed but extra service to pay???? Also there is an 18% gratuity pre added and the option to add more. Our party joked that they have to add it ahead of time because the service is so bad that they may not get tips otherwise. It was a promising location with a unique menu but I wouldn't recommend it based on service alone! read more

Yummy! if you happen to be in the area & even if the wait takes a few, this place is worth it & you will not be disappointed. Came in on a Friday early afternoon, was a little busy, but I was seated right away, because I was a party of 1 The greeters in the front were friendly with a smile. Got seated & even my waiter was helpful with any questions I had about the menu, great customer service. It's self Parking on the street, you do have to pay, but I'm not sure what the hours are or how it works. It's also bigger than what it looks like from the outside. Will definitely be visiting this place more, to try the other goodies on the menu. read more
