We did have to wait a while for the food order which was a little disappointing, even the roti took at least 20+ min to come out and we were the only ones that ordered food at the time. A lot of drink options though and I like the fusion concept. The pandan latte drink I got was just good but nothing outstanding. Not enough pandan flavor in my opinion and tasted more like coconut. Seems like a great cafe to hang out or get some work done. They have a few more tables towards the back of the room.

The weekends…read morewhen I would drive by seems like there's always a lot of people here so I made a reservation reservations online and you have the option to choose if you want to sit outside inside or upstairs. I reserved for three to sit in the main dining room. The next day we arrived right on time for our reservation and still had to wait about 10-15 minutes and was asked if we could sit outside and then we were seated upstairs. I was a little bummed we didn't get to sit in the lower dining room like I booked on our reservations. It was still cute upstairs and good company always makes brunch even better. The servers were quick and helpful. I wanted something light so I just ordered the chicken and waffle bites. My husband got French toast and a side of chicken and my friend got a main entrée of a sandwich with some fries and a little soup. All of the food that came out looked amazing even at other people's tables. For brunch, the price is a little pricey, but I would like to come back to try other entrées when I'm more hungry. We asked one of our servers if he had a light as I brought a little candle to celebrate my friend's birthday, and as he lit it, he also decided to join in with us as we sang happy birthday, which I thought was really sweet. He did not have to do. He even got other tables around us to sing happy birthday as well. It felt like a special moment for my friend, which was a nice surprise. I did really appreciate this part and look forward to coming back.

We visited Kitchen Story for a spontaneous Mother's Day brunch. I will say this is a popular brunch…read morespot, so be prepared for a bit of a wait. We arrived shortly after 10am and our wait was just under 30 minutes. The restaurant is cozy (on the smaller side) but has an interesting layout. There's seating both indoors, outside, and upstairs. You may have to squeeze by a few tables to make your way to the restroom. Customer service was friendly and attentive. Pricing for food & drinks was a bit high. Our total for 2 entrees and 2 drinks was $60 before tip. We ordered two drinks (orange juice and an iced mocha) which were provided promptly. The orange juice was a little too sour and my mom had to add some sugar to improve the taste. The iced mocha was good, not too sweet. One thing to note the wait for our food took much longer than expected, and it may have been due to how busy it was. My mom opted to order the salmon yuzu benedict and I got an egg plate (scrambled eggs) with a side green salad. My mom mentioned the potatoes lacking salt but she enjoyed the salmon benedict. I thought the scrambled eggs were good, but slightly bland & needed salt and pepper. The side green salad was alright, but the vinaigrette had a bitter aftertaste. Overall, the meal was pretty good and timing wasn't the best. I'd likely return for brunch on a non-peak day. Definitely recommend joining the yelp waitlist prior to arriving if you can!

I came here for breakfast with my three-year-old daughter, and unfortunately it was a big letdown…read more We both ordered pancakes, and they were honestly terrible--very dense, completely flavorless, and oddly pale. From the moment they arrived, I had a feeling they wouldn't be good, and that turned out to be right. I ordered bacon and wasn't expecting anything fancy, but it was surprisingly paper-thin and not very good. My daughter's sausage patties were tiny and quite dry. The coffee was decent, but that ended up being the best part of the meal. The atmosphere is pretty basic, though the restaurant is in a cool old building in Jack London Square. I've been here before, but it had been a long time, and I remember it being much better. Based on this experience, I wouldn't come back for breakfast. Maybe lunch is better, but I'm not in a rush to find out.

I ordered the Home Fries Heaven, and as someone who likes potatoes, specifically fried potatoes, this was indeed heaven. It's basically a scramble but with thin sliced home fries. Never seen that anywhere else so had to try it! My friend and I also split the blue corn pancakes. Probably should have gotten the traditional conventional pancakes (I always like to order something sweet for the table to share) but hey at least we tried it and it was different, just not what we were looking for in the moment. Service was quick and efficient even though we went close to closing time and tables were mostly full. Bathrooms are a little different than most places, stalls are separated by gender but then sinks are out in the open for all. Hope to come back after next year's Bay to Breakers!

I ordered the turkey club and it was honestly huge. You can see in the photo how big it is compared to my hand. It was stacked and super satisfying, the kind of sandwich that definitely fills you up. We also shared a deviled egg and some fried zucchini to start, which were great little bites before the main dish. The zucchini was crispy and light, and the deviled egg was simple but really good. I paired everything with a mocha latte that was perfectly balanced and honestly superb. Overall it was a ten out of ten brunch moment. Between the sunny weather, good coffee, and really satisfying food, it was exactly what we were looking for. Definitely one of those spots I would come back to for brunch again.

This was me and my husband's first time at the restaurant and the food here was excellent…read moreeverything was very good and flavorful. I gave it to stars because the service was really bad. Our waitress took very long to even acknowledge us, didn't person herself to be very friendly, and lacked any attentiveness to us as customers. We had to ask other people for things like refills on our drinks, condiments, etc. She didn't ever really try to check to see how things were going after the food was served and we had to ask someone else to pay. Unfortunately considering this experience my husband doesn't want to go back and I hate that for us because the food was really good.
