    Busy brunch spot. Plenty of free parking in the lot but this place gets busy so we made sure to stop by after 1pm so we could get seated and not wait over 30 minutes in line. We waited 5 minutes on a Saturday around 1:15pm. The staff seemed stressed but were still efficient. The restaurant itself is beautiful. I enjoyed the bar seating they had and the nice decor like the bike on the wall. For food I was sooo excited to try the Almond Crunch French Toast as thats why I had this place bookmarked. Sadly it was a bit disappointing. The French toast was a bit burnt on the bottom and lacked the nutmeg or any sweetness or flavor the menu states it will have. Almonds I know will be a French toast that is on the less sweet side however it tastes so bland like where is the brown sugar or nutmeg? No nutmeg or brown sugar detected. My eggs over medium were made perfectly though and the sausage was good. For the prices being high and the food being standard I and the person I dined with agreed IHop or Dennys would've been cheaper and better or about the same quality food. Family Pancake House Redmond is my preference in Redmond still and the best cafe diner I've been to. This place is alright but nothing special.

    Nothing you can complain about - except maybe insane wait times. We waited for 90 minutes for a table of 2. Highly recommend Egg Benedict. 4 star for food because the vegetables omlette probably had no salt at all. You can customise pancakes - really recommend trying simple pancakes with pecan. It was a new experiment and loved it. Our server was really sweet - she made a mistake of getting omlette with bacon but she got us a replacement like within 5 mins. Also gave us $5 off from check.

    Great little old achool diner place. Extremely friendly staff and good coffee. I love how they have a half omellete version which is nicer than the full omellete option. Veggie omellete was great and the pancakes were not bad! Would highly recommend!

    Triple Fruit French Toast

    Superb brunch spot in Redmond! This is a local chain and each restaurant is decorated with a different theme. Lots of families and groups at this spot, creating a lively atmosphere. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I always struggle to choose between sweet vs savory. I went with the Triple Fruit French toast this time, but there were so many other options to try! Service was great even though the restaurant was very busy. Note that they may add auto gratuity for larger groups!

    classic egg benedicts with buttermilk pancakes

    Classic breakfast/brunch/lunch diner a plaza a little bit north of Redmond city center. Typical American diner type of decor. Mid size interior divided into a few sections. Very busy on a Sunday. They have an online waitlist that you can use so you don't have to wait at the restaurant as long. Menu has the usual like pancakes, eggs, burgers, sandwiches etc. I got the classic egg benedict and picked the pancakes for the sides (hash browns being the other choice). You can get a half portion or full portion. Full portion gets you the two muffins with ham and runny poached egg on top, with a healthy slathering of hollandaise sauce. Their sauce was pretty good, and so was the ham. Pretty good egg benedicts overall. Got 3 pieces of buttermilk pancakes which were pretty fluffy. Comes with creamy butter, and syrup which is warm and very watery, but was sweet enough. My friend got a half portion of the corned beef scramble, and it tasted decent and good amount of food for the "half" portion". Overall bill including tips was about $50, which is typical these days in the area.

    Gorgeous decor, friendly service and yummy food, a perfect win! This place tends to be packed so make sure to join the waitlist ahead of time. The staff is generally able to accommodate any food swaps/ dietary restrictions which is a huge win! I got the California omelette and swapped the bacon out for broccoli! Omelettes come with a side of either hashbrowns or pancakes. If you're going in a group, I recommend at least one person getting the pancake side to share for the table! Portions for the pancake sides are generous! Also kid-friendly and comes equipped with crayons and coloring sheets!

    Biscuits and Sausage Gravy
    Porter I.

    The diner whole place is very cozy and traditionally styled. Service was direct and minimal. Not super welcoming for a first-timer, but we can't complain too much. The menu is very nice and has many Mexican breakfast dishes which I love. We went for the classic, diner-type breakfast. The Biscuits with Sausage gravy were a 3/5. The biscuits were dry and the sausage links both in the gravy and on the side were a little bland but good meat quality. Eggs were cooked to request. As for the eggs benedict, we enjoyed it! The sauce was creamy and smooth but we'd have preferred it to be a runnier egg. The avocado and fruits were fresh.

    Best place for breakfast in Redmond! If you're ever craving a hearty tradition breakfast, village square cafe is the perfect place!

    This is hands down my favorite spot in the city of Seattle. It feels like a nice quiet diner. The wait staff was doing their best to handle the rush and I think they did an amazing job. I ordered the monte cristo with a side of fries and it was everything that I could ask for. The food was filling and I loved the strawberry jam sauce. I wish I lived near this place so I could come back all the time.

    corn hash, pancake

    Best brunch place in town! They can split the day lates in two for sharing. Join in the line through their website to avoid the long wait. The only pancakes are so great! It comes with fresh fruit and whipped cream. Also love the corn hash. Everything is delicious!

    Super cozy vibe, and food was fine. Wasn't super impressed by the pancakes and my egg Benedict was a big disappointment

    Eggs Benedict

    Went here for lunch on a Monday holiday and it was really busy. My friend knew it was a popular spot so he put us on the online waitlist so we were seated in about 5 minutes after we got there, he had put us on the waitlist 30 minutes prior. It was a fun diner and the service was very nice and very fast, the food portions were really large and everything was pretty good. I enjoyed it!

    Service was very good. I give them a 4.5 but can't do that in the app. The food was good but not a wow for me. I picked the huevos and I think it wasn't the best choice. It was just okay. Pancakes my wife ordered was good. I would come back and try something else the next time

    Hey, I was thinking of checking this place out, but I wanted to ask if you have any vegan items on the menu?

    Sadly, they do not have vegan options on the menu. You I could probably order black coffee, toast and fruits, but that would be about it. Unfortunately I don't know of any vegan options in the area, but good luck with your search!

Noon Café is a casual family diner offering traditional grilled kababs (aka kebab), appetizers, sandwiches, and pizzas - all Persian/Iranian style. The interior is basic, decorated with photos of Iranian landmarks (I assume). Currently, they have a memorial due to the ongoing war. (Peace to all...) Service is warm and friendly. Be sure to ask questions if the dish names are unfamiliar. The Food: Soltani, $32.99 - 4 Stars Soltani includes one skewer of Koobideh (ground beef) and one skew of Barg (flank steak). Both are well-seasoned with excellent flavor. We ordered the flank steak medium rare, but it was medium with no pink inside. The steak was tolerable, not as tender as it could have be. This dish was served with rice per the menu. After I saw another table has their kabab served with a bread, I asked the server. She said other than rice, there is a choice of Persian bread (flat bread with sesame) and salad. Curious that wasn't in the menu nor did she say it. Not a dealbreaker. Her reply did raise my eyebrow. Zaboon, $16.99 - 3 Stars Menu: Veal tongue, simmered and fried, tomato, pickles, parsley Based on the description, the texture completely threw me off. The meat is mushy to the point of spreadable. The flavor is light with minimum seasoning. I applied hot sauce liberally to the sandwich. Portion size is large. I ate only half. Fries, $6.99 - 3 Stars Menu: Golden and crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside Some pieces aren't crispy enough. Some pieces are too thick such that the inside has the potato gritty texture. The sauce is a house-created flavor. We like the sauce more than we like the fries. The food is closer to 3.5 Stars. I like the family vibe and am rounding up to 4 Stars for the overall rating.

When we realized we were at the wrong place, we informed the staff. They were incredibly polite and friendly and didn't show any irritation at all. They kindly said it was no problem and were very understanding. While we were there, we took a look at the menu and decided we should come back and try the food another time. A couple of months later, we returned to give it a try. We ordered the non-mixed grill, and it was absolutely delicious. The beef was cooked perfectly--juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The chicken was also excellent. The rice was perfectly cooked, and when we added the butter, it tasted amazing. They also had a special Persian spice that elevated the flavor to another level. The service was warm and welcoming. Our server took the time to explain how Persian food is traditionally enjoyed and described the purpose of each ingredient. We followed his suggestions, and the experience was even more enjoyable. The ambiance was simple and modern, and the place was very clean and well maintained. Definitely a must-try.

The staff were friendly and polite - and they graciously accommodated my peanut allergy, and quickly accommodated small requests like for bowls or extra napkins. We ordered four items: the missus got the bun bo hue, and I got the special beef pho. We shared the pancake and the spring roll. The noodle dishes were decent, but the standout was the Vietnamese pancake. Definitely order this if you're on the fence! The restaurant got a lot busier after we got our food - at least two or three parties who arrived (two each) had to wait between 5-10 min for a table to clear. The staff are super efficient at clearing tables so you won't need to wait long, but the downside of this place is that their popularity easily exceeds their capacity - so be patient! I don't have any notes for ambiance. Parking is available in the same plaza, but there isn't much - a lot are reserved for specific businesses between specific hours, so be careful not to park in an open business if you intend to eat here!
