The place is small but nice ambience and bar seating is slightly cramped. Service was very quick. Food tasted good, but portion size is small. Was expensive for the size, but not more than any other brunch place in sf. Would go once, but will not revisit.
Got big spoon, potatoes were the best. Granola french toast was unique. Fresh orange juice was delicious and refreshing. Would not recommend the huevos. Portion sizes are decent. There was a waiting line but it moved quick. Service was quick too. Bar seating is more than table seating but bar seating is super cramped. Open kitchen and bar, good atmosphere.
Came in without a reservation mid day on a weekend and was able to get a spot at the bar without a wait. The bartender/waiter was incredibly friendly and helpful. In fact, all the staff were almost joyful and seemed happy to be there, which made this experience so pleasant. I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup and my partner had the standard breakfast. We both got mimosas as well, which the bartender was quick to ask us if we wanted refills. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very relaxed and made for a nice afternoon. All of the eclectic wooden spoons that decorate the interior add to a their vibe and brand. We absolutely will be coming back. I saw quite a few things on the menu I’d like to try.
Nice little breakfast spot near the Castro. Staff are very friendly and helpful during our meal. They had a decent selection of breakfast entrees. The ones we ordered were all delicious and good portion. We were nicely stuffed after our meal.
Really solid brunch spot with an upscale, clean vibe and a menu full of interesting options. We tried the Dr Birch muesli, veggie bowl, salmon scramble, and Swedish pancakes. The muesli stood out — hearty, not overly sweet, and packed with nuts and fruit. The salmon scramble was also really well done and felt satisfying without being heavy. We went around noon on a Sunday, and it was packed, but the wait wasn’t bad if you’re fine with bar seating. I’d definitely go back and work my way through more of the menu.
