I recently visited 900 Grayson for weekday breakfast, which is offered until 11 am.
It's a cute spot in Berkeley with both indoor seating and an outdoor patio. Because we came on a Tuesday morning around 10:30, it wasn't crowded at all and we had a lot of options for seating. We opted for the patio as it was a lovely day out.
My friend ordered the popular Demon Lover ($16), which is their signature fried chicken and waffles dish. I took a couple bites and thought it was solid. The gravy was quite rich though; I was surprised to learn it's a vegetarian (onion-based) gravy.
For myself, I got the the Tom Boy ($16), which comes with poached eggs, potato, apple and parsnip corned beef hash, and white toast. Unfortunately, I found it to be a bit disappointing as it felt like separate pieces combined together rather than a cohesive dish. It was still good but just not what I was expecting.
I ate the toast with their home made mixed berry jam and that was delicious.
Overall, we enjoyed our meal at 900 Grayson. I'm glad we came on a weekday so there was no wait. read more
