    Long wait on a Saturday morning, but it's worth it! Had poached eggs on French toast with arugula, wild mushrooms and optional Parma ham, so good! The location is also nice, near Lake Merritt

    Great deli salads and top notch sandwiches. Super good ingredients. One of the best outdoor lunch spots for dining near Lake Merritt.

    The savory French toast is one of the most amazing dishes I've eaten in a while. Get it! And they sell Crabbies Ginger Beer ( they are also a bodega)

    Everything here is so delicious. Definitely start with some donuts and keep going until youve made it through the whole menu. I wholeheartedly recommend the chicken if you're here for dinner.

    I had the bellini of the day (peach bellini) and savory French toast. The entrée is really good - forking over the extra $2-$3 for the prosciutto is worth it!

    Just had the savory French toast, and my mind is blown. Definitely not what I was expecting - it is VERY savory with a lot of arugula! Honestly, I haven't had anything close to it before, it was 💯

    Great brunch spot. I didn't mind the one hour wait time since the lake was right across the street. Just had a nice scenic walk with my lady and came back with a bigger appetite.

    Ooh, they have Udi's gluten free bread delivered fresh every day! When I buy Udi's at Trader Joe's, it's dry and unpalatable, but, here it tastes like real bread. Also they don't charge extra for it!

    Had the savory French toast. Incredible. But if you're not a mushroom person, I wouldn't suggest it. Place is cozy and cute, in a great central location

    I love brunch here! The breakfast sandwich is delicious. But beware: you may have to wait quite a while for a table.

    The savory french toast was awesome, though the line certainly got lengthy. Bar seating was the way to go.

    The only vegan option on the menu is The Obama Llama, with avocados which was delicious. Great ambiance.

    I waited so long to get in. Got in. The service was average, the menu was bizarre and not what you'd expect for a brunch place. The French toast was average ☹️

    They never care about customers. I waited 1 hour to sit, and 1 hour to eat! Finally I ate some foods but it was not delicious at all!!!
