Great food. Avocado Salad was delicious add the house bacon it was worth it. My husband had eggs Benedict and it was cooked perfectly. Great stop on the way to Muir Woods
Great breakfast/brunch with a ton of good options and unique items like the chicken and croffles…get the Hot Stone Pot - so worth it!!!
We found this place on our way to Muir Woods, and what a great surprise! The food was delicious, full of flavor, and the portions were generous.
This places was amazing, especially after a hike. Sometimes we visit places where the food looks beautiful but doesn't taste good. Well this isn't one of those places. Their presentations taste as good as they look. This is going to be my post hike brunch area from now on. I am looking forward to seeing the staff again because they added to the welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend the chicken and croffle(waffle pressed croissant) because that chicken was so tender and perfectly combined with the crunchy croffle.
It was a weekend girls day out. And an excellent choice for brunch. Their artichoke beignets are top notch. And so are their tacos. We loved their goat cheese avocado toast. And finally the hot stone pot with tofu was the highlight. 10/10 will recommend.
Really awesome brunch place in the heart of Mill Valley. This restaurant is a must visit if you’re around in the north bay and hungry. I got some loco moco and their strawberry sauce french toast special- both were really flavorful and tasty!
Fabulous meal. We were greeted kindly. Staff very attentive. Menu selection was plentiful, both breakfast and lunch. My husband ordered their special hot stone pot with chicken mango. 5 star presentation and so yummy. I had the Hemingway Benny. Again, presentation and taste were 5 star! Portions were more than generous. Highly recommend!
Cute place with great food! Came for breakfast after a hike at Muir woods. He had the KS Scramble that has bacon, asparagus and parmesan with hollandaise - great combo, flavorful, and ciabatta toast was so light and crispy 😋 I had the Mehico Benny with chorizo, veggies and added jalapeño. Now, mind you, I've had chorizo eggs Benedict before (the best that comes to mind was in a Monterey restaurant), and I think this one was outstanding! Super-tasty and seasoned - I was really happy to be eating it 😁 potatoes were nice. Only hiccup was they delivered my dish to the lady next to me, but we had already talked a little, so she just handed it to me and I went at it - no big deal, they were busy (Sunday morning). He had the bloody mary made with Korean soju - it was good. I had a mimosa, minus the oj lol. There is no hard alcohol here. We will totally come back when we're in the neighborhood.
The food tasted good overall. I got the California burger cooked medium — I really liked the pickled red onions and the arugula, which seemed lightly dressed. My only complaint was that the avocado was sliced a little too thick, so it kept sliding out of the bun with every bite. The burger itself was juicy and had a good concept. My wife got the chicken club. It was good, but nothing special, and we had the same issue with the avocado being sliced a bit thick. We both really enjoyed the fries and the ranch aioli they came with. I’d definitely come back to try some of their sweeter dishes next time.
This place is best suited for groups of 2–4 people. The restaurant itself isn’t very large, and the tables are placed quite close together—you can almost hear conversations from the next table. That said, it didn’t really bother us because everyone was focused on their delicious food anyway. The overall atmosphere feels lively and energetic. We visited around lunchtime without a reservation, but the wait wasn’t long at all—about 10 minutes. The staff were very efficient in seating each group, which made the experience smooth and pleasant. The food was delicious, and the portions were very generous. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience. We would definitely visit this lovely little spot again next time we’re in Mill Valley.
