    Food was good, service was good, ambiance was fine as a nice little country kitchen set up. No complaints as it was a good breakfast, but nothing that is going to make me have to return again. Great job on a solid breakfast.

    We stopped in at Kitchenette the other day for a brunch with my niece who lives in Templeton. Templeton is a very picturesque town with a kind of a farm theme and some very nice small cafés and restaurants. Kitchenette is definitely the one to go to to eat breakfast! We got there early and got a great parking space in the small lot, but you can park on the street. We went to the counter and ordered. Since I had studied the menu. I got probably the least breakfastish dish- the Vietnamese salad and my husband got the eggs Benedict, which he had enjoyed before. We sat down and it wasn't long before the food came out. It's such a small restaurant that even if it's packed full, there aren't that many people ahead of you. I had the Ranch Hand salad last time and felt like it was a little too close to a "real" breakfast for me, so this time I chose the Vietnamese salad because of recommendations of other Yelpers! I really enjoyed this salad. There's something very crave bowl about the dressing and the chicken was just right the way that it was grilled. We sat and enjoyed the buzzy breakfast ambience. It never got too crowded and people wandered in and out getting to go meals. We will be back again when we want a nice hit of breakfast in Templeton!

    I've been to this restaurant before and had a great experience because the food was so good. I decided to go and get a couple pastries to celebrate my birthday. Even though it was very busy, I was acknowledged quickly, and the team was welcoming. - Unfortunately, I do not recommend the pastries. Both of them were bland and dry. My cinnamon croissant smelled like cheese and cinnamon and cheese do not go together. I assume this is because they were located so closely together in the glass case. - The crumb cake was tasteless. It had been warmed up without my request and by the time I ate it, it was crumbly and dry. If you feel there are other pastries I should try, please reach out to me via messenger and let me know. I like your restaurant and would like to continue to support you.

    Friendly welcome, excellent fresh breakfast that's worth the price of most items. We had the Posole Verde - with a breaded and fried soft boiled egg...amazing! Also the Soft Scramble eggs with sourdough toast (both high quality, fresh, cooked perfectly). The chicken sausage was a little sweet. I liked it, my boyfriend did not. Personal preference, though. Yummy housemade hot sauce; also a little sweet and earthy. Great drip coffee (you can ask for a refill). Cute patio and plenty of inside seating. Will return!

    Breakfast Tacos
    Jamie S.

    This place is busy for a reason. We ordered at the counter and the food was brought to our table. The coffee and cappuccino were both very good. The food arrived promptly. It tasted as good as it looked. We were lucky to score a table inside as it was a bit too cold to sit outside. The BLTA was delicious. I had several people walk by our table and tell me that it looked amazing. It could have used a bit more seasoning. I noticed that several other posters have commented on the seasoning aspect of the food. It didn't detract from our experience though. Hubby had the breakfast tacos and said he would def come back for them. I would love to try more dishes from their menu and look forward to retuning.

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry
    Julianna H.

    What a cute place! The outdoor patio was perfect for us four + a pup. The menu options were all very appealing. Everything we ended up getting (eggs, pancakes, burritos) were delicious. Only feedback is for management - Staff them appropriately! Service was slow, but only because there was one server covering a majority of the restaurant on a Saturday morning. She was so amazing though! Definitely coming back.

    Sweet Potato Hash 5/5 So Good !!
    Azalie M.

    Food 4/5 The food was fresh and flavorful, leaning on the healthier side. The sweet potato hash was an interesting combination but packed with flavor , definitely my favorite thing I tried! The pancakes were fluffy and delicious as well. The chilaquiles weren't traditional and ended up being my least favorite from our order, but everything else was great. Customer Service 5/5 Everyone was friendly, and it was great to see how mindful they are of their staff. Ambience 5/5 The ambience was cute, with charming farmhouse vibes. The indoor space felt a bit crowded, and the line extended outside, but the outdoor seating was more spacious and comfortable. Cleanliness 5/5 They were regularly wiping down tables, and everything looked clean and well-kept. Wait Time 3/5 The wait time was longer than expected, which might have influenced our decision to eat here. The line was extremely long and moved slowly, we waited standing for 30+ minutes. On the plus side, once seated, the food was served quickly. Cost 5/5 The price was very reasonable for the quality of the food, still affordable Drinks 4/5 We ordered lattes, which were fine but nothing exceptional, I was expecting a bit more. On the plus side, the orange juice was freshly squeezed and really refreshing.

    Look at the height of that pancake!  Blueberry-lemon ricotta pancakes.

    Dear Hubby, Sweet Granddaughter, and I were on a vacation recently. We were focused on spending time on the Central Coast, and had met with family in Paso Robles the earlier part of the week. On our way south to spend one more night in SLO before heading home, we ended up in Templeton for breakfast. I'd recalled a previous dining establishment there which was excellent for a morning meal. Time has moved on and that place is either gone, or moved. When I couldn't find it, Kitchenette popped up as an option. Glad that we decided to stop in. This is a local's place, though I imagine they serve tourists passing through the area. A hearty greeting was extended to all upon entering. We made our way to the ordering counter, studying the menu until it was our time to order. The menu is hearty, with different twists on breakfast favorites. Because of my restrictions against having cow's milk dairy, I ended up with a child's order of French toast, eggs, and chicken sausage. SG had the same, but gave her eggs to me and had fresh berries instead. That made her very happy. DH went for the blueberry lemon ricotta pancakes. Such fluffy 'cakes I haven't seen anywhere before. They were a work of culinary art! Something special to try if that's your inclination flavor-wise. The food was excellent, and the service was warm and genuine. They could have used more help, especially for busing tables and cleaning up. I'd gone outside to the large patio space to take a phone call. Many of the tables hadn't been touched in a while after diners had left. We might have normally sat outside on a warm morning, but there was a distinctive eau-de-manure aroma on the air from one of the ag--related businesses in town. SG wasn't having it and definitely wanted to sit inside. As this is a scratch kitchen situation, being patient while the food is prepared is a must to have a good experience. I would be happy to visit them again and hope for a day when they weren't quite as busy. As good as the food is, that might not be possible.

    delicious breakfast with fresh vegetables and unique flavors dishes (not typical of the traditional breakfast menu:) which we love to eat in the morning. You won't be disappointed.

    Fried Egg BLT
    Rhea A.

    Such a quaint little restaurant with farmhouse style decor, specializing in breakfast and brunch in Templeton. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. There are a few tables inside and bar seating, which are tiny, but we opted to dine inside because it was a hundred degrees outside. Not exaggerating one bit. We were greeted immediately once we walked in. She found out it was our first time and offered answers on any questions we had and didn't mind us taking our time to decide what we wanted to eat. After ordering, the food didn't take long to make its way to our table at all. My kids quickly decided on a pancake, French toast, eggs, and bacon. I opted for the Fried Egg BLT which was so tasty, and it definitely hit the spot. We had some potato Croquettes which were pretty heavy but nice and crisp. I had a latte and the quality of the coffee, I could tell, was really good. It seemed to be the perfect spot for brunch or to get your coffee and a pastry. They have a glass case with a selection of generously sized fresh baked goods. I don't see myself visiting the area again any time soon but if I do, it will be at the top of my list of places to revisit.

    Posolo Verde
    Dino H.

    Can't wait to come here again! Such a jam, super fresh and unique dishes, open kitchen (which means they are proud of their cleanliness) and I'm not sure but I think the owner might be the chef. Cool vibe.

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
    Doreen T.

    The four of us stopped by Kitchenette for Sunday brunch during our weekend to Paso Robles. It was pretty busy, and we ended up waiting about 40 minutes in line, but that gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. We ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes (a must-try!), corned beef hash, breakfast tacos with braised pork, and the flavorful mushroom polenta. Surprisingly, even though none of us are vegetarian, we all agreed the pancakes and polenta were the standouts of the meal. You order at the counter, and the staff brings your food to the table. Utensils and water are self-serve. There's both indoor and outdoor seating available. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Paso area.

    Kitchenette in Templeton is a cozy breakfast/brunch spot that boasts a relaxing outdoor patio. I ordered the Posole Verde which was super yummy in my opinion. Pork shoulder, linguica sausage, veggies, and a scotch egg make this dish a hearty and filling menu item. The almond French toast is another delicious breakfast item. Strawberries, honey whipped cream this is another super sweet and delicious menu item I highly recommend. The pastries are delicious as well and the coffee is yummy and high quality. The service is super friendly and homey. A perfect place to hang out with family and grab some weekend brunch.

    Does the restaurant open on New Years Day?

    Can you get bacon and eggs hash browns toast and coffee?

    Yes you can! We don’t have hash browns but we hash croquettes or red potatoes!

    Do they have any mimosa specials on a Monday? Ok for a group of 5?

    I don't believe they have mimosa specials, but they do offer delicious mimosas with fresh squeezed orange juice. Decent sizes too! They have several tables that would work well for a larger group, especially where it's nice and peaceful outside:)

Maybe it is because we are watching "Yellowstone" on TV, but I was craving the flavor of the Old West, which can still be found in many places around SLO. We returned to Pig Iron Restaurant in Templeton, where we had dined about three years ago when they very first opened up! it was kind of bare and spacious our first time there. It was great to see how they have added to the space and now have room for multiple functions! There's a huge outdoor dining patio with a coffee pick up bar. There's a an indoor dining area where you order your food at a counter. There's also the Club Car Bar with its own separate room. I remembered that Pig Iron sando was good. My husband ordered the Pig Iron. I went for two smoked chicken, Cowboy Tacos, and our friend got a burger. We topped it all off with onion rings. It's the kind of place that you order at a counter in the Merchandise room, then take a buzzer to your table. We commandeered a large booth in the fairly small dining room. It has maybe eight or 10 tables. There is are a couple lounge chairs by the fireplace, which is very cozy on a cool day. By the time our food was ready, the dining room was full. That Pig Iron pulled pork sando is worth the trip! The meat is super tender, and the sauce is piquant and not too spicy. Topped with cole slaw, it is a perfect lunchtime meal. Burger was also nicely done kind of a smashed burger. The tacos were aptly named Cowboy Tacos, as I felt that they were gringo tacos. They were bland, since they didn't have sauce on them and the chicken was in tiny chunks and not shredded. The onion rings were crispy and fun to dunk in the Ranch dressing. We hunkered down cowboy style and enjoyed our meal, talking about about outer space and the moon trip while enjoying our food in the cozy ambience of an evocative historic setting!

The famous ranchero sauce was good, but quite spicy! Kept eating it despite getting heated from spice, since it added the flavors. - Chilaquiles supreme = chilaquiles was good, but the tri tip piece from the supreme upgrade made it too chewy and detracted from the base chilaquiles. * I think the regular chilaquiles would be the better choice to enjoy without distraction of tri tip pieces. Or maybe ask if can make the supreme with other protein choices maybe some chopped up bacon or sausage pieces instead if allowed to substitute? - The hash browns side was perfect and delicious! Definitely wins over the homefries option. - Cinnamon roll = huge and a meal on it's own. was too much after the 2 entree's The menu is so vast, I think it's a winner as long as you stay away from entrees with tr tips. I just went too all in on tri tips, lol. Would love to try again sticking to the diner classics of pork chops or chicken fried steak, or the ny steak and eggs, or any omelettes or burritos.
