Let me start off with the food is amazing, there was a little bit of a wait to get my order taken, I even thought I was going to have to leave and go somewhere else because my lunch time is so short. I walked out, but one of the owners, I am assuming because I forgot to ask 😅, came after me and apologized, took my order right away and I got it soon after that. If you’re thinking of eating out, come here, in fact don’t even think about it just get in your car, walk, run, ride your bike and go. Everything about this place is phenomenal!
I was on the 580 side of Oakland and remembered the Willows & Pine Restaurant, and after a quick Google search...here I am! While on my way to the table I looked at what the other's had ordered, and when I spotted the Porterhouse Porkchop...that was it for me! Let me just say this...It was truly exceptional in flavor, texture and presentation! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆
Went for brunch. Got the oxtail and grits and shrimp and grits. Both meals were Very flavorful. Oxtail were the big ones, the way I like! Portions were very generous and service was on point! I will definitely go back and try more dishes/dinner menu.
What a pleasant surprise! Wandered in to a very welcoming atmosphere. Seated in the back area in a spacious booth. The menu read was accurate and managed expectations that each dish is made to order, so be patient! Brunch is curated and not the typical eggs, waffles and French toast. Think oxtail and grits, chicken pot pie done right. Prepare to loosen your belt buckle as the portions could easily feed 4 hungry folk. For me the stars of the day were the fried oyster mushrooms (stellar) and the chicken pot pie! Entire staff welcoming and I highly recommend giving it a try.
The food was delicious! The prix fixed brunch is more than enough to serve two to three people. It was my first time visiting, I was really unsure if it was a seat yourself kind of deal when my party and I first walked in. We stood at the counter for a minute before being greeted. The vibe was very relaxed and family oriented. I would go back again for the food even if it was for take out.
