One of the better breakfast/brunch places we've tried. The items that we ordered were delicious and tasty....except the nutella crepe, which was nothing different from many other good places. Prices are pretty much similar to many other quality breakfast/brunch restaurants.
Great friendly and attentive service from staff.
Of note, the displayed items are missing paprika so if you don't want it on, let them know ahead during ordering....ie, the morning breakfast croissant.
I enjoyed the infused jasmine tea a lot and would recommend for those that love a great jasmine green tea.
We would return if next time in the area.
I came here to have brunch with one of my friends. Loved everything about this place, if you’re new here and don’t know what to order they have sample plates to give an idea on what you get with your order, I ordered egg avocado toast, and cafe latte. Everything tasted so yummy! Will be going back soon!
I hate leaving negative reviews for small businesses and I usually never do but we had brunch here over the weekend and the food was honestly very mediocre. :(
The sexy French toast was so overpriced for what it was (2 pieces of bread and some fruit) and was probably the worst French toast I’ve ever had. 😭 The bread for French toast was really dense. The fruit on the French toast was good but it was also a looot less than the version they had on display at the counter where you order.
Just felt tricked because the actual food here looked nothing like the plates they had on display at the counter.
We also got the omelette which was better than the French toast but it was also a very average omelette.
In summary, I would come here if you want a place with plenty of seating, nice vibes, and friendly service with outdoor seating! Food is just ok and overpriced IMO but there isn’t really a better American brunch option in downtown San Mateo which explains why it’s so popular.
The place is a must visit in San Mateo, their Coffee were on point with a fusion of Southeast Asian and Western touch. The sandwiches were different from most places, salmon Benedict was def the best one I had in a while. They were also selling coffee beans from Philippines. A super unique experience with great high quality service. Recommended for everyone!
Great breakfast, service and incredible coffee in one place!! This morning I was greeted by Josh, the manager, he suggested I try the Dolce Barako and the Veggie Scramble. Both beyond my expectations. Great vibe and really nice people.
