Came here for brunch and while I enjoyed the majority of the meal there were a few things that really bothered me. Â Here are the highlights- good and bad.
they serve drinks while you wait for your table. the mimosas and bloody marys were very good
we ordered the apple cinnamon beignets which were fantastic. Â However the huckleberry coffee cake was hard and dry. Â
The crab hash was decent but the crab cakes seemed uncooked.
The fried chicken scramble didn't come with the waffles we saw in pictures- it came with corn bread and it was poor cornbread at that. Â
They brought our entrees about 5 minutes after appetizers so we had to stack plates just to make it all fit. Â I get they're busy and have a wait but I don't appreciate spending $35 a person which is higher than if you walked in on a weekday and ordered these dishes a la carte and then rush me through the meal. Â
The S'mores dessert was good, had alcohol in it which I enjoyed.
This place doesn't give descriptions of what's in each dish on their menu which really bothers me.
Sundried Tomato Cafe was so much better- better food, better service and better pricing. Â I think my next brunch outing in SJC will be there.
YUM!!!
$35 for brunch. Come early. Luckily we did and our group of 4 got sat right away in a cute little corner table outside. They have small details such as blankets behind some of the chairs if you get cold.
We all ordered something different so we could try a bunch of stuff... one wich was the stu with blue cheese, which our server told us was only seasonal and people wait hours for. It was one of the best things we had to eat.
Everything was on point, rich and flavorful, except for the crab cakes which we all really disliked. Don't get them! Split pea soup with duck, all the breakfast items... everything was delicious!
Your brunch comes with a mimosa, which is served in a large mason jar.
Great brunch experience. For a whole day thing, take the train like we did, then walk over to sight see at the mission :)
