Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs with biscuits and gravy
Cam A.

Arrived on a rainy morning about 1030. There were tables available and we were sat immediately. It's a small cozy restaurant with parking next door. Ordered the chicken fried steak with eggs and biscuits and gravy. The eggs were hot and fresh and the biscuits and gravy were also hot and fresh and both tasted good - not the best but definitely tasty. The chicken fried steak was okay. It seemed to be over breaded and not enough meat. It was more breading than you'd expect. The service was average, nothing unique.

Lemon yogurt pancakes

Stopped by on the way to Tahoe. Was initially thinking of stopping in Roseville but the lines there were really long on a Saturday at 9am. I ordered the bacon avocado Benedict and lemon yogurt pancakes. My partner ordered the Avocado delight (omelette). The portion sizes are HUGE. Everyone else at the table ordered omelettes and left feeling very full. The eggs in the Benedict were poached to perfection (still some gooey-ness but not runny across the entire plate). The bacon and avocado complement the eggs and English muffin well. I ordered mine with a side of fruit. Most places with fruit as a side will put some berries on a plate, but at Katrina's they really load up your plate with a variety! Watermelon, cantaloupe, orange, strawberry, blueberry, blackberry, apple, and pineapple. As a table, we shared the lemon yogurt pancakes. It comes with syrup and raspberry jam. I recommend adding the jam to the pancakes (but in moderation because it's very sweet), as it balances the sour and creaminess very well. The pancakes were light and fluffy, and even though both yogurt and lemon are sour the flavors blend together perfectly. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, but they are quite busy!! The waiters were constantly walking by with new orders and seating guests. Service was as attentive as can be, despite being busy. You do have to flag down the waiter to place your order, but the food comes pretty quickly after (maybe 10-15 minutes). If you're able to sit inside, they do have a multitude of plates on display along the rafters which I thought were quite nice! As a pro tip, although there is a specials menu provided, it seems there are some additional items that aren't on either the regular or specials menu but is written on the black board inside (that's where I saw the bacon avocado Benedict). There is a roped off portion of the parking lot with a sign for guests of Katrinas Cafe where you can park!

Avocado Delight with biscuit and gravy. Huge portions that can be shared. Also comes with toast.

Found this local gem and was a little apprehensive as it's tucked away between a car dealership and a Polaris dealer. Although inconspicuous, it seemed popular. We came around lunch time and even though it was busy there was plenty of seating both indoor and outside to accommodate us. We were seated right away and handed a large menu with anything and everything you could want available for breakfast or lunch. We opted for lunch and breakfast which came out super fast and were huge portions. It is a home town country spot with some great variety options but you can tell everything is homemade. The staff is friendly and attentive and the locals were also friendly. Great spot if you're looking for a bite.

I couldn't wait to take a pic before taking a bite of each!

What a find! The other reviews of Katrina's give you a hint you're in for something special. The face the place was packed also speaks volumes. Warning - it's small both inside and outside so getting a table could be challenging but once you're in - get ready. Mom had a Hawaiian omelette w potatoes- she loved it. I like Hawaiian pizza but not sure I'd personally go there. I went Customer's Creation - Fontaine Italian Sausage, mushrooms, spinach and tomato w cheese. OMG, the sausage was tasty, sweet and a perfect foil for the omelette. The biscuits and gravy had a great flavor of sweet and savory w/o being overly heavy or mushy. Did I mention that both were huge and generously stuffed? Definitely a top 10 omelette that you will get two meals out of! My wife did a custom burger - mushrooms, bacon, avocado on a very nice burger patty. She prefers going bun less, no wrap - which was a good thing because, again, it was huge!!!! I'm not sure you could have picked it up w a bun. They serve steak fries which are often mushy and uninviting. Not these! Nice crisp bite - maybe a little under seasoned but nothing a little salt and pepper can't fix. So some heads up...1) Benedict's w hollandaise sauce are only available on weekends (we will be back!). 2) they only have wine and beer which wasn't a deal breaker for us at all. I guess you can tell we are new fans that are looking forward to coming back!

Breakfast with my best friend!!! I love her!

This is SUCH a cute spot. The ambiance in here is UNMATCHED. The food was so tasty too, the omelette was delightful and not overcooked like omelettes usually are. The service was fine, it was quite busy in there so I'm sure they had a lot to do! Def check this place out, the potatos were also fireee. So was the jam, not like that packaged stuff breakfast places usually give you.

Look no further than Katrina's for the best brunch spot in the area! My family and I were heading to Lake Tahoe and wanted to indulge in a large breakfast before heading up the mountain. Our omelets were cooked to perfection. The potatoes were crispy and packed with flavor. The portions are also huge and very reasonably priced. But the star of the table were the lemon ricotta pancakes... a must try! The location is small and despite it being an early weekday, we had to wait a little while. The service was great and once we were sat, we ordered quickly and received our food not too long after.

Katrina's IS A MUST WHEN IN AUBURN!! Right on Highway 49. It's a small cozy restaurant with some amazing food!! Most items are scratch made which I appreciate!! YES, they are busy, but it's worth the wait!! Be patient please.

Dana N.

Please do not take this in a rude way.... This was the best "hole in the wall" restaurant i have been too!I I use that expression because it's very small. With that said the food is on point!!! We had their lemon yogurt pancakes and they were FANTASTIC!!! We cannot wait to come back!! YES, it's packed and there is a wait! But it's sooo worth it!!!

Menu

Katrina's- located in Auburn. Yummmmmm. First timer here. Had the mushroom, onion, cheese omlette. First off that was huge. It came with toast of my choice and fresh fruit or potatoes. I chose the unhealthy one. The potatoes were so good! I also got the blood orange mimosa! So yummy! Very well priced! Huge menu! Beautiful location! Nice outdoor patio! Great service. Everyone was so friendly! Would definitely come back!

Oatmeal with fresh fruit, brown sugar & cream.

Probably our sixth visit for breakfast and the crew is always kind & the food is good. I had the bacon, Swiss & spinach Omelet with country potatoes. Hearty bacon loaded Omelet was hot and fresh ,plentyof spinach, cheese & grilled onions& and enough for two. The Mrs ordered healthy and had the oatmeal with fresh fruit, brown sugar, and cream on the side. Good local fruit, refreshing, and plenty to eat. We sat outside and enjoyed the fall weather. Not too busy on a Thursday about 11am.

I celebrated my clients birthday yesterday!!…read more Happy Birthday, Dianne!!!! She picked Awful Annie's so she could enjoy an Awful Annie's Famous Body Mary! It had a touch of spice and was garnished with celery, a green olive, a spicy green bean, pepperchini, a lime, and a pearl onion. For lunch, we decided to order of the weekend specials menu! I ordered the Carnitas & chorizo Huevos Stack and she ordered the Chicken Fried Steak Dip... service was good. While we waited for our food, my client had to use the restroom twice. From where we were sat, it was quite a long walk, but it was an accessible ramp she was able to use since she has a cane. The steps would've been too much for her. When our meals arrived... both were stunning. My huevos Stack was not all it was cracked up to be. Although they had great crispy tortillas underneath, it had a lot of other soft foods on it that didn't give it much texture. Refried beans, over medium eggs, pico de gallo, red enchilada sauce, and not much meat on it to go around the plate to even it out. Dianne's Country Fried Steak Dip looked and tasted like it was created by someone that knows their breakfasts! Between 2 slices of parmesan toasted bread, there was a thin country fried steak, with over medium eggs, cheese, and BACON!!! And a side of gravy to dip into. That was a million times better than the huevos Stack! So I politely asked our server if I could switch to that special. She got the order in right away and it was out fast. Every bite had the perfect amount of flavor and their sausage gravy tasted insanely good! Both my client and I went home worth half of our meal. She was so happy and it melted my heart that I helped her have an amazing birthday. With the help of Awful Annie's, they helped her birthday become a home run!!! Delicious bloody Mary's, double delicious on our Country Fried Steak Dips, and fine service from the best in town! Thank you Awful Annie's!!

Came here on the way home from a road trip, and had to try something I spied on the menu a day or…read moreso previously - I like to plan my attack! I ordered the parmesan crusted grilled cheese benedict - a mouthful just to say, let alone try to eat . . . If it were JUST the Parmesan-crusted grilled cheese, I would have been happy as a clam. But add the Benedict (2 poached eggs and hollandaise sauce), and I escalate to a happy abalone. Well, you get the idea! I ordered with fruit on the side. And extra Hollandaise. It came quickly, and it was nicely presented - an artwork of home cooking cuisine. It was an amazing taste experience, and I think I have a new favorite here. Although I say that each time, and I have yet to have the same favorite twice here, always something new catches my eye. Just . . . . sooooooo goood. Pearl P. offered great, attentive service, and overall, this was again a great meal. Can't wait to be in the area again and find me a new favorite dish.

Happy Easter everyone!…read more Today, my daughter and I went out to breakfast here at Sweetpeas. It is located off the freeway on the corner of Bowman and Luther roads. There was plenty of parking when we pulled in. As you walk in, you seat yourself. I hadn't been here before, but my daughter has. When we sat down (table and chairs kinda place), one server got us a couple of waters while we were looking over the menu.. perfect, because that's what we love to drink. After we decided on what we wanted I got a chance to look around at the decor on the walls. It felt very family friendly with baby pictures on the walls, signs, coffee mugs along the restaurants name spelled out on the wall. It was very cute and cozy. My daughter ordered the Carnitas Omelet (Carnitas omelet with jack cheese, black beans, red onions, avocado, and black olives, topped with sour cream. Served with sourdough toast and fresh fruit) with strawberries. I ordered the Huevos Ranchero's with eggs over medium (Corn tortillas, refried beans, 2 eggs, sour cream, avocado, homemade salsa, and cheese cheese. Also served with a side of salsa.) We didn't wait long, it arrived within 10 minutes. Also, after smelling their delicious coffee, I had to have a cup! A+!!!! My daughter let me try her Carnitas Omelet. Their Carnitas is on point! It was tender and has great flavor! Her omelet was beautifully cooked, being that it was gorgeous, yellow and fluffy. My Huevos Ranchero's was crispy in the bottom as I requested. I love the topping of avocado. The only thing I would change is to get all the salsa on the side. There was quite a bit on the Huevos Ranchero's themselves and it was a little overwhelming. Next time, I'll order it completely on the side. The menu has it listed as homemade... it tasted a little bit like it was Pace chunky salsa. I didn't even touch the side of salsa that also comes in the side and I wasn't sure what the extra side of tortillas was for, but I took those home. My daughter took home about half of her 3 egg omelet and some toast. Maddy was a great server. Everyone helped each other out by doing coffee refills for all tables (not just their own), running out hot food, and helping clean up tables as people finished their plates. Great team work! We paid up in the front and we're on our way. BE SURE TO TIP YOUR SERVER FOR ALL THEIR HARD WORK!

Sweetpeas is a really great place to eat, food is very delicious, and the service is excellent…read more They have a great staff that looks after all your food needs. Very relaxing atmosphere.
