I was invited out to eat breakfast here at Marvin's. First time here, it's a cute breakfast/bunch place in Cotati. I got the chilaquiles with 2 over hard eggs. The servicing size is generous and it tasted home made. My friend for the Mexican Benedict, it had so much flavor and the potatoes were cooked to perfection. Our service was a great we got greeted as soon as we walked in and we were checked on frequently. They even filled our coffee mugs without asking.

Steak chilaquiles and breakfast burrito were seriously delicious -- huge portions, bold flavors, and everything tasted super authentic. The hot sauce packs real heat (you've been warned!), and every bite was worth it. Only downside? Prices are on the steep side -- but if you're hungry and want it done right, this spot delivers.

I was visiting my daughter who lives nearby and she brought me to Marvin's for breakfast. I didn't expect much and was pleasantly impressed. We arrived about 10:30 am on a Sunday Parking lot is quite full but we found parking easily. Happy to say that spots are decently sized so cars are too close to each other. We were seated immediately. Warning ... the menu is pretty big for a person with any trouble making decisions (me). I never asked if I could order lunch at this time (which I usually prefer lunch) I decided on the chicken fried steak since I love it and it's not something that I would ever make at home. Daughter usually gets the breakfast sandwich but went with the sausage and cheese omelet. Both came with toast and a choice of hash browns or potatoes. We both picked hash browns and they were amazing. Daughter opted out of toast and we shared mine. My chicken fried steak was amazing. Possibly the best I've ever had I tasted her omelet and it was tasty Hashbrowns were perfect An array of hot sauces were on table with we didn't need to request it. The cutest thing about this place was that each table had different and adorable salt and pepper shakers. Space was super clean. Staff was working hard and were fabulously friendly. I am looking forward to coming back on my next visit. Maybe even come for lunch!

Marina sandwich with shrimp, salad, tomatoes, avocado, and lettuce on woke wheat! I chose sweet potato fries as my side!

Have lived in the area most of my life and I've never been to Marvin's until today. It was life-changing! We will be back. The food was extremely fresh, service was great and a great little atmosphere.

Country Fried Steak breakfast with hash browns & over medium eggs. Also came with English muffin. Fantastic!

What to do when one of your fave brunch places is closed for vacation?! Keep researching for alternatives because we drove all this way up to Cotati. Thank you fellow Yelpers for your insight on Marvin's! As expected on a Sunday there is a bit of a wait for a table (just for 2 of us), but it wasn't bad. The place was very busy. There's counter seating for those who would like to be served more quickly. Since I'm trying to eat low carb I opted for their Joe's Scramble with a side of fruit and hubby went with their Country Fried Steak with hash browns, over medium eggs, & an English muffin. He said it was one of the best Country Fried steaks he's ever had. I enjoyed my scramble and the hot coffee. Friendly service with smiles. I liked it here very much. There is a bit of a wait for staff to take our order, but it wasn't terribly long. Looking forward to trying other things next time!

The burger was totally worth it and had a lot of bacon which we liked. The chilaquiles were accompanied with a lot of toppings which made the dish not only look aesthetic but also be very filling. Service kindly switched out our water with cucumber with just plain water when I asked. Very good and fast service (we came on a Friday at around 10:30am). The ambiance was nice as well. A lot of seating, good music, and clean spaces. La comida estuvo deliciosa. Pedimos los chilaquiles con salsa morita y la hamburguesa de desayuno. Las porciones estaban bastante bien servidas. La hamburguesa sí valió la pena porque traía bastante tocino, lo cual nos encantó. Los chilaquiles venían acompañados de muchos toppings, lo que hizo que el platillo no solo se viera muy bonito, sino que también llenara bastante. Además, cuando pedí que nos cambiaran el agua de pepino por agua natural, el servicio lo hizo muy amablemente. El servicio fue muy bueno y rápido (fuimos un viernes como a las 10:30 a. m.). El ambiente también estaba muy agradable: hay bastante lugar para sentarse, buena música y todo estaba limpio.

They have a great website that keeps you posted on wait times. Accurate w 30 min estimate. Upon our being seated, our server showed up within a few minutes and took our drink and food orders. Drinks showed up within minutes and food in another 10-15 min. We ordered: chilaquiles w smoked pork chop, chorizon con papas, churro French toast w eggs and bacon, and avocado and bacon benny. Food arrived hot with generous portions. Eggs ordered over easy were still gooey. All were happy and digging in. House unsweetened mango ice tea and mocha w Ghiradelli chocolate were standouts. They even gave us more coffee and iced tea to go. We'll be back for more breakfast as well as trying their lunch. Yay for small businesses that continue to deliver and in a prompt, friendly atmosphere!

One thing…read moreto know about me is I am supposed to stay away from gluten whenever possible, so I try to find places with good gluten free pastries. Red Bird happens to have an excellent gluten free muffin, as well as a to-die-for gluten free brownie. This morning, I had the cranberry orange GF muffin and it was so good. The flavors felt very holiday and the muffin was the perfect texture. My wife loves their breakfast sandwiches, but she is not a huge fan of their English muffins so she gets them on sourdough bread. Red Bird makes all their breads and they are really great quality. If you ever come in for lunchtime then their artisan pizza is the main attraction. They make some really wonderful, unique pizzas that you can get a slice or two and enjoy! Red Bird also offers good coffee here (Retrograde!) and other hot drinks. Plus, they do cakes and desserts to order. We have ordered their Yule Log for several Christmas's in the past, and we order cakes here for birthdays. The service here is always friendly and helpful, and we love sitting at their long, wooden tables when there is time to eat at the cafe. I like their dining area, which feels very communal and fun. If you haven't been here before then come and check it out!
