Came back with the whole family this time. We sat in the table side of the restaurant. Note, if you…read morelove music, you can't hear it on this side of the restaurant very well. 1. Maple Sage Fried Chicken. My favorite! The chicken is uniquely textured and the sweet sage flavor really makes it stand out. As a person who is actually not a big breakfast food fan, I think this dish has the right balance of breakfast hashbrowns, toast, and eggs mixed with "regular food," the chicken. 2. The strawberries and cream stuffed French toast was pretty good. One of my daughters had this dish and enjoyed it. 3. The house pancakes. My wife thought she has had much better classic pancakes at Orphan and Sunnyside, but they were decent. Probably would not get again. Great service as always. Thanks, guys, for a great start to a day of farmers market venturing (right next door).

Comfortable. Homey. Delicious. These 3 words encapsulate my recent brunch at The Morning Fork…read more I arrived a bit before 11 and parking was plentiful. The waitlist wasn't long, and I was seated at the bar in no time. You can expect to find all your brunch staples here, and I went with the classics: an omelette and pancakes. My server was attentive, the food was yummy, and the ambience makes you feel like a part of the local community. Can't wait to be back!

One of my favorite places for brunch. This place is usually busy since it's so popular and located…read moreacross from the capitol. They have a decent menu and I love how many dishes they have for brunch. Service has always been great, I've never had a bad experience. There's a huge outdoor seating and it's great for big groups. Good usually comes out promptly so I've never had to wait too long even when it's busy. Pros: the portions are huge, I can easily share with another person and still have leftovers. I love their pancakes and French toast. Their lunch and dinner options are great too. Cons: parking can be hard to find (street parking). There's also parking garages near by.

We came for brunch to celebrate a birthday, and I was trying to decide between the spinach omelette…read moreor the chicken fried steak. The server said the chicken fried steak was really good, so that was my choice. I thought that I would also enjoy the pork sausage gravy served on top of it since I love biscuit and gravy. I was quite disappointed in my choice because the steak as very tough, and dry, like it was not made in-house but probably frozen, and deep fried in house. The generous serving of gravy on top was lacking any flavor and was on the pasty side, so it didn't help the steak in any way. My toast was cold, which was not too much an issue, but the hardness of the toast was like day old left over toast. I told the server the steak was pretty tough but he chose to ignore my comment twice. I did like the potatoes, which were nice and crispy, but if anything, would've like a fresher piece of toast. One of our guest gave me her butter and that did not spread well on the hard toast. I took the steak home, and heated it a little because I was still hungry, but after one bite, I just tossed it. Just wasn't good. The guest next to me did order the omelette, and her omelette did look very good. I was just unhappy with my meal, for the price, which would've been worth it, if it were good.

Really fun little restaurant that really captures that homey Southern charm…read more We were seated right away, and the host was really nice and fun, offering his recommendations without us even having to ask. Our waitress came over shortly after. I see a lot of mixed reviews about the service, and I think some staff members are friendlier and more outgoing than others, but even the less friendly servers were still attentive, helpful, and quick. I think it just depends on who you get and whether you value a really friendly interaction or care more about the food and basic service. We tried a cappuccino since the host said they make all their coffee in-house, and it was pretty good, especially coming from someone who doesn't drink coffee. We chose the fried green tomatoes as our starter, and they were delicious. I'd never had them before but had always heard how iconic of a Southern dish they are. They were really well balanced with the aioli and feta, and the tomatoes themselves were juicy and fresh. I had to go with the shrimp po' boy, which was also really good. The shrimp were pretty big and tasted fresh, complemented well by the really light, airy, buttery bread and fresh vegetables inside. The fries were also a plus! I enjoyed everything I ordered and would definitely come back to try some other things. I will say it was a bit pricey for brunch for two people, with the bill coming out to around $80 with tip. I guess that's just the day and age we live in now, though. I thought the portions were decently sized. Not as huge as your typical diner portions, but still large enough that you could probably expect some leftovers.

Our first time at The Porch, and we had heard so many great things about it. The brunch was…read moredelicious, and the portions were generous. The beignets reminded us of Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans. Our table staff was also excellent, attentive, and friendly. Unfortunately, our experience got off to a disappointing start. While we were standing closest to the greeter's desk, the gentleman seating guests seemed to overlook us and asked another couple if they were next in line. Whether intentional or not, it left us feeling overlooked and uncomfortable. It was an unfortunate moment that took away from an otherwise enjoyable brunch. Sadly, this first impression may make us think twice about returning.

I went to Old Soul Co. in Sacramento and tried the matcha with oat milk, naturally sweetened with…read morehoney. It was a solid 9.5/10 for me. Smooth, not too sweet, and definitely something I'd order again. They also have dairy free options, which I appreciated, and a vegetarian breakfast burrito that was actually really good. I'm always happy when a place has more than one vegetarian option instead of making me survive off vibes and a pastry The staff was honestly a whole vibe too. They were patient, went over all the matcha options with me, and we ended up laughing because the cashier wasn't sure which dairy-free milk would be best. His coworker came over like, "Of course oat milk," and I was like, bet, let's do it Staff gets a 10/10 from me. One thing to know...if you enter through the parking lot, the shop is toward the back and can be a little hidden, so keep going. Overall, really good experience. I'd definitely be back.

Local favorite dive bar and hole-in-the-wall spot in Midtown!…read more Ambience: Casual, local dive bar with a fun, laid-back atmosphere. Parking: Challenging paid street parking. I recommend trying O Street or P Street, about 2 blocks away. Price: Very cheap and reasonable for the Midtown area. They're open daily from 6am to 2am, which is pretty amazing. You can even get a full breakfast and morning Jell-O shots while watching games and socializing. Recommended FOODS: * Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs: A crowd favorite for breakfast, served with lots of gravy. * Night Tacos: Super popular and cheap ground beef or chicken tacos. * Hot Wings: Done just right and extra crispy. Recommended DRINKS: * Bloody Mary * Morning Jell-O Shots * Mimosas * Craft beers on tap: 19 selections A fun spot if you're looking for a casual local dive bar, especially for an early breakfast or late-night food and drinks.

Well, the meat was cold and it seemed like all that was done was fry the tortilla. We explained the food was cold and instead of ensuring the meat was warm, Mike stuck the food in the microwave - with the lettuce, tomato, and cheese! Now the server, Shana, gets 5 stars. She was understanding and apologized when we said the meat was cold AND after it was put into the microwave. I feel like Shana knows customer service.

Meaning he overcooks everything! The eggs were burnt and so were the potatoes. There was no seasoning on the potatoes, but they were edible. The eggs were not so I sent them back. They offered to remake them, but I won't give an incompetent cook a second chance to screw it up. The other big offense in a kitchen is improperly seasoning the food. They have deviled eggs with bacon crumbles on top, but they whipped something really offensive into the egg yolk filling. It was gross. I'll try lunch or supper here, but with breakfast so horribly screwed up, it doesn't look promising. Service was excellent in spite of the revolting food.

We arrived around 10am on Sunday August 9th, 2026 for brunch. We immediately put our name in and…read morewere told that the wait is around an hour. We gave them our phone number and that I turn gave us a wait list update. They have a cool app. It shows you how many people are in line, how many in each party and how long each group has been waiting. It made me feel more confident that the wait time was fair. They weren't just cherry picking who got seated next. No buying your way to the front of the line. The wait time was standard and according to my husband part of the experience. I tried to get our group's eta in hopes that we could get there 30-45 minutes before the rest of the group so we all didn't have to wait that long, but instead we all arrived at practically the same time. Thankfully there was no complaining. My husband did get everyone drinks at the bar while we were waiting so that helped. At one time the Pozole was only offered on their brunch menu, now it appears you can order it all day. I tried to order it earlier this year and I was denied. Either way I was craving it so I ordered it. It was really good. I loved doing all the cabbage to the soup and eating it that way. I left out the red pepper flakes as I'm not that into spice. The meat was only Ok as there was a lot of fat. I ate around it, but it was kind of gross at the amount of fat that was attached to the meat. I didn't put the tortilla chips into the soup. I tried one as the last bite of meal and ohhh it was spicy. It felt like it was covered in jalapeños. I check them out and it appears that there is some kind of spice attached to them. My husband had the French Connection A petite slice of our Famous French Toast served with whipped maple butter, two poached eggs and Applewood smoked bacon. He said the poached eggs were a bit plain. The French toast was superb. It is the famous secret recipe of custard soaked French bread topped with in-house whipped maple butter. I had a bite and it was so yummy.I could feel the custard. My husband commented that it wasn't too sweet which was good as he's not an overly sweet lover. I would order it another time for brunch. I wouldn't get poached eggs. I'd probably get fried eggs as I'm a fan of fried eggs. The ambiance was great. The interior was just lovely. So creatively decorated. Service was good even though they were busy. Our waitress came to check on us several times. Parking was tough. There wasn't any spaces in the lot so we parked on the street. All of the parking on the street right outside the parking lot was all taken so we parked on a side street that didn't have any restrictions on the weekend. Most streets were a no parking zone unless you have a permit any day of the week. We were here again Oct. 21, 2026 for dinner after a movie at Tower. We were quoted that wait time was 20 minutes and that was accurate. I like their wait app. You can watch yourself move up on the wait list and it also counts how long you've been waiting so you don't have to do them math.

She told us a little bit about the history of the block and the B&B itself. It's a nice touch to have coffee delivered to the room each morning. Our room, the Dickenson, was a bit dusty when we first arrived. When we complained, it was quickly and mostly remedied. The weirdest part of the room, though, was that the bathroom had no real door - just a curtain. I just don't see why the door was excluded. That being said, the bathroom had a large jacuzzi, which I wish I had used more. It was a treat!

I recommend their Cali burrito which is basically mushroom, spinach, egg, and potato inside this filled tortilla wrap. It has this nice aioli sauce that pairs great with it. I myself, love lots of hot sauce with this. This burrito has NO meat just FYI but it's clean tasting and will get you full. My wife ordered their grilled cheese egg benedict which was tasty and cheesy. It's more on the salty side of things but it's so good and one of their most popular dishes. Their menu consists of unique items which all sound so good! Can't go wrong with either dish. Also, I recommend getting a house coffee; not sure which beans they use but it's tasty!
