    Egg Sandwich with Linguica plus One Waffle side
    Jason H.

    Warmly greeted and offered us to sit anywhere we like. I found this cozy place when our golf group came here before a tournament. (They can accommodate larger groups in their side room.) So, I knew the service was good, because they knew to get us in-and-out quickly without us even having to ask. Today, I had more time for a leisurely breakfast, so I ordered the Egg Sandwich with Linguica with a side of One Waffle and a bottomless cup of coffee. (I remember I got French Toast last time, but it was not very filling for the price.) The breakfast sandwich was very good, especially the linguica, as were the potatoes, but the waffle was a tad burnt -- almost enough to want to send it back. But, I decided to try it anyway. Our server was awesome: friendly, attentive, and very pleasant. A decent sized parking lot surrounds the restaurant. Fair pricing, as well. I will definitely come back to give them another crack at that waffle.

    I gave my friend a few breakfast options, and they chose Baji's since neither of us had been there before. We arrived right when they opened and were greeted immediately, which was a great start. We even got to pick our table, which was a nice touch. By the time we left, the place had definitely filled up. The service was great, the food was spot on, and my mimosa was both super cute and delicious -- also the only thing I remembered to take a photo of. The restaurant is fairly new and sits on the corner of a busy street, but there's a parking lot with plenty of spaces, which makes it easy. Overall, a really enjoyable breakfast, and I'd definitely return.

    Cute little cafe. A bit expensive for breakfast items specially if you get the eggs plate. Husband got the eggs your eay (over medium) which came with potatoes and toast. It was quite small and he added a side of 2 eggs ($8.5 or 2 eggs) making his dish total more than $23! For eggs and toast! I got the eggplantsandwich ($18) whoch was super tasty and would eat that again. It came with yummy fries.

    Fries Chicken & Waffle

    This is a very popular weekend spot. While there was no line, it was definitely crowded. It is a relatively small restaurant, having both indoor and outdoor seating. The walls are decorated with sports items. It was nice having a TV nearby so I would watch a sporting event while dining. Service was first rate and attentive. Iced teas and sodas are served in a large, retro style Coca-Cola tumbler. I would recommend they provide longer straws, however. The standard ones they have are a bit too short. I was craving Chicken & Waffles, so I did not bother looking at the menu. My order came out relatively quick and looked great! Do note that the "honey" in the order comes in those quick/to-go packets. It is your basic fare as opposed to something special or artisan. The waffle itself was crispy on the outside, a bit cakey on the inside. The 2 pieces of fried chicken were moist on the inside. I could not, however, discern any brining to enhance its flavor. Overall, it was a solid dish for just $19. I would say this is a good place to visit. I would probably lean towards ordering an omelette/skillet dish in the future, though.

    Regular Omelette

    Standard diner with all day breakfast available. Came by while waiting for my car maintenance for a quick bite. Service was nice and fast, food came out hot and delicious. Everything was decent. Less food than expected and we finished our meal with no leftovers.

    Bajis' Signature Omelette
    Kevin L.

    Located along Middlefield near 101, parking spots are few but available. There's a good amount of seating indoors. I also liked that they had a ventilated outdoor seating area too. Bajis Signature Omelette (5/5): so yummy. Each bite was well rationed with the ingredients being used. The bell peppers were crunchy and really added an extra layer to the texture. The flavor was just right. It wasn't overwhelmingly salty nor under salted. The hash browns were amazingly crispy. Service was great. The staff did an excellent job making sure we didn't need anything. Overall, Bajis Cafe is an awesome breakfast/brunch place. Food is phenomenal with top tier customer service.

    Went bike riding and passed this place and a couple of days ago, so I decided to try it. The place is really nice with sports memorabilia, even though I only saw one warriors pic of Joe Smith. My daughter and myself had the meat lovers skillet which comes with a side of toast or pancake/waffle. My daughter got the pancake and I got the waffle. The skillet was delicious, but the waffle and pancake was very rubbery and disappointing. Overall great restaurant and the staff was very friendly.

    A nice, friendly, solid American Style diner. I had the biscuits and gravy and some hash browns. The biscuits were cooked well, soft on the inside with a nice firm top/bottom. The gravy was just a simple white gravy with some sausage bits. I found it to be a little under seasoned (which I fixed with some salt and pepper at the table) and it was okay. Not the most amazing biscuits and gravy I've ever had but a some 3 star and I would eat again if in the area. The hash browns were mid and just okay. Nothing special but nothing horrifying either. The staff working there were super friendly and quick and were overall great!

    Authentic Mexican Sundae
    Sergio R.

    Wasn't sure what to expect from this little diner. Went to breakfast and had a great time. The food was tasty and the service was great. The people working there tagged team the tables and made sure everyone had what they needed. They checked on us as they walked by to make sure we were good. The scene is a little dated, but it's expected for a diner. Not a bad place to grab some breakfast and chill with friends.

    Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice

    Best orange juice 10/10 would definitely recommend. The chicken was perfectly crispy and cooked amazingly. The waffles were perfectly fluffy and crunchy. Eggs were also great. Highly recommend Bajis Cafe.

Friends all ordered things from grain bowls to waffles and things with eggs and all were raving about the food. Place is self service: you order at the counter, grab your water and utensils, and a runner drops the food to your table. The only downsides here were that it's slightly on the pricey side in my book and parking was a little meh. We got here at 10am on a Saturday and they have a parking person directing confused visitors where to go. The lot was already full so we parked on the street. Other than that, this place is a really nice spot to relax with friends or a date for weekend brunch! I'll definitely come back!

Unfortunately I didn't get any replacement food, and they brought the bill and mentioned that we didn't have to pay for coffee...$68 pre-tip was a little upsetting after our experience, even though I know accidents can happen...

Everything is above average in taste and execution. Brunch Tacos mole: chicken mole poblano, scrambled eggs, huitlacoche, tortillas, epazote crema, fried shallots & avocado. Perfect portioning and the salad that came with it had a fantastic dressing. I pulled some chicken out and gave it to my wife and then it was perfect, a bit too overstuff before. The mole and overall taste were quite good though. Chilaquiles: tortilla chips sautéed in chile de árbol-guajillo salsa, topped with queso fresco, cilantro crema, and an egg. My wife loved this so much it made her question every time she didn't order it before. Fried egg sandwich: two over easy eggs on house baked brioche bun, chipotle aioli, avocado, bacon, cheddar cheese, fried shallot. Kids loved this and happily ate the leftover after. Iced Mexican Cafe: delicious iced coffee with a distinct Mexican taste. Distrito Verde: mezcal, basil, lemon, and falernum. Simple but refreshing brunch cocktail, really paired well with the mole tacos. Chips and salsa: These are not free but worth the price. Both the chips and the 2 salsa are of extremely good quality and preparation. Abnormally tasty and the kids went crazy eating it.

    Great casual lunch spot! My company likes to rock this place a lot and they are always consistently…read moregood! There menu isn't huge but they have specialty options that rotate frequently so you can't get sick of it! The indoor seating is nice, but on a sunny day you have to enjoy the outdoor set up. There's great shading from the verandas and umbrellas. The portions are huge for everything but the salads are especially massive. You MUST try the tater tots. They are the best I've ever had. Perfectly crispy and golden, without being excessively greasy. If you get the sandwiches or burgers, you can sub out the fries for free. The fries are good too, but trust me, you will not regret getting the tots.
