I ordered the guajillo eggs benedict, and it was excellent. It's spicy, but the heat doesn't bury the other flavors, so you still taste everything on the plate. If you also visit early in the day, unless you're ok with cooking in the sun, ask to be seated away from the windows. Service was brisk without feeling rushed. Water and coffee were refilled on a similarly quick schedule, so nobody was left with an empty cup. The location and vibe lean toward the tourist crowd, but locals shouldn't let that put them off. The food and service stand on their own. Things really ramped up around 9:20am, so get there early if you can.

Dark wood paneling with leather booths and tables. It's located in a shared space with the hotel next door. Hubby & I came for breakfast around 8:30am Wednesday. Found street parking in front. Bagels and lox are house made. Both hubby & I enjoyed what we ordered. * hubby had the Routine - choice of bread. * I had the Brooklyn bagel sandwich - choice of bagel, lox, and schmear. House drip coffee was excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. Located in Santa Rosa's historic railroad district.

After our mini vacation in Sonoma, we made a detour to Santa Rosa for a quick lunch before heading home. On a Thursday we parked right in front of the restaurant around noon. Sitting outside under the umbrella on a warm day was pleasant. After indulging for three days we decided to go lighter by sharing a Reuben and a Middle Eastern salad. I ate most of the sandwich, wife ate most of the salad. Both of us were very satisfied with the food and service. Compared to several of the fancier dinners we had at Sonoma Square, I actually enjoyed this meal the most. So glad we came and we shall return when the opportunity arises

I can see why Jeffrey's is considered one of the best breakfast in Santa Rosa, and has been for…read moreyears. With all of the options around it is sometimes hard to pick a place to go on a Saturday morning. Jeffrey's is a charming, family friendly establishment that is attached to a small inn off Highway 12. Other inside is pretty small, but they do have some outdoor tables. The interior has some lovely art on the walls as well as positive phrases making you feel like you're home. The service is also great here, and I feel like I've seen the same folks working here for many years. My wife and I ordered two different Hashes to share. The Brussel Sprouts and Bacon Hash is fantastic, which has this blue cheese aioli that gives the dish so much flavor. The Brussel sprouts seem like they're steamed and then tossed in the hash with sautéed diced onions, bell peppers and bacon. The aioli is on the side, but just adding a little bit to each bite gives it so much extra. We also ordered the special of the day which was a Smoked Chicken and Butternut Squash Hash. It has some of the same elements of sautéed onions and bell peppers, but this was served with a cilantro aioli. This dish, while not as amazing at the other Hash, was still really good. My daughter ordered the Buttermilk pancakes (added blueberries to them) with sausage and eggs. She certainly enjoyed them!

My mom had the quiche of the day with fresh strawberries and blueberries, and I had the biscuits and gravy with eggs over easy, along with two cups of their house coffee. Both dishes were flavorful and we enjoyed our breakfast. My only real complaint was that the biscuits were pretty dry, but a little extra gravy definitely helped. Our waiter was kind and efficient, and the rest of the staff was friendly as well. Overall, a good breakfast experience with friendly service. I'd give it about 3.5 stars and would be willing to come back and try something else on the menu.

Once we got there, the table was ready and set for us. We all had waters and extra for the table to refill our glasses. Our waitress was so kind and she was very quick. Everyone's food came out in a pretty timely manner and everyone cleared their plates. I tried the Americana coffee and the menu showed that the syrup was made in house. I really enjoyed it as it wasn't a super sweet taste. After all of the heaviness from the weekend I went with the simple potato and eggs breakfast. It also came with a piece of sourdough toast. Eggs over easy and home fries. I also added 2 chicken sausage patties. The sausage was great and not too salty and the eggs were perfect. Our waitress noticed we were all dressed up and asked what we were celebrating and when we told her it was a bachelorette party she was struck up a conversation with the bride and even gave her a free cookie to take home. Things to note. Is located in a downtown area so only street parking but it's free on Sunday. The restroom is not located in the restaurant and requires a code which can be found in the restaurant displayed on a sign. Large parties automatically include gratuity.

When my food was delivered it was rather quickly, and I never saw my waiter again. I was alone for brunch in this cute restaurant, it was a busy day on Labor Day weekend, and they did put me at the bar, but I was near a POS entry system. Food, definitely come back. Service, three strikes.

Such a quaint little spot that feels homey and local. To start I ordered the strawberry hibiscus shrub soda and my oh my, I think I've rekindled my obsession with shrub sodas. Perfectly sweet, tarte, and refreshing. We ordered the house focaccia and shishito peppers to start and both nailed the spot. The focaccia was fluffy, flavorful, and not too dense. And the shishitos had a DELISH red sauce that I was scooping up with every bite. I ordered the gnocchi, which came with fresh tomatoes and was cooked to a really nice texture. My friend ordered the salmon dish and although she said it was on the smaller side she was hoping for, the flavors were well worth it. Perfect spot for a date night, and they have an outside patio as well!

I hadn't been back for several years after I paid about $16 for a grilled octopus salad, which was…read morenothing more than some scraps of oily lettuce and exactly two overcooked nickel sized slices of octopus. This place had always been wildly pretentious and catered to the hipsters, but in the beginning, their food was actually fantastic. My partner received a gift certificate from a colleague, so I thought we'd try again, and came for brunch. My hope was that the place had returned to the portions and quality of when they first opened, which were proportionate to the cost. Unfortunately, it has declined even further since the octopus incident. We ordered the baby pancake and the burger. The portions were spectacularly small for the pricepoint, and everything tasted underwhelming. The baby pancake was more of an over done, miniscule crepe, and the medium rare burger we ordered was well done, dry, and tiny. There is a process of waiting outside and ordering, which is confusing, unwelcoming, and downright strange. There is a reason that no other restaurants do this. Please knock it off. The service was just ok, and no one came to check on us after our mediocre food was served. Fortunately, all this experience cost us was the tip, and time we could have spent eating something substantial and leaving feeling full. Meh. It's time to give up on this place and their overpriced, overhyped, substandard hipster fodder. Two stars because the herbed fries were nice.

Half order was $11.25, filled me perfectly, as I'm a woman. Full order would have been $19.50. It was super tasty, meat tender, veggies fresh. My hubby got the corned bread hash topped with 2 eggs as you like and cheddar ($19.50). He loved it and ate the whole thing. My son just got two eggs, bacon, hash browns and sourdough toast, he was happy; they use quality bacon ($17.95). We also got a child's cheese burger for $8.95.( huge burger!). The entire meal was only $63.20 before tip! Well we didn't get coffee this time because we already had some home, might have added $10 more. Their refillable coffee is excellent, i forget the brand but a gourmet French roast tasting option. Usually i get because it is so good.

I ordered take-out: British Bangers & Eggs Breakfast for myself, and the Turkey/Avacado Omelet for my dear wife. Both were exceptional. While I waited for my take-out, I admired the panoramic views of the Santa Rosa Creek on the restaurant's south wall. (They have windows all around.) So, A+ for ambiance. The greeter/head waitress was exceptionally great. She made sure I added my selection of jams to the order, included plasticware for 2 and opened the door wide, stepping outside to do so, for me to exit with the package. She was so attentive! And I must admit the patrons are friendly. One going in complimented me on my tie-dye t-shirt our of the blue as I was getting into my car. It just adds to the welcomingness of the restaurant when the patrons display niceness and comraderay. You can see the chefs cooking, which is a plus. One regular thanked a chef as he left for a great meal. ... an all-round 5-star experience: Even though it is a distance for me, I am sure I will be back.

The service was super friendly and FAST; the diner was bustling, noisy and smelled of all things breakfast. You can tell looking around that people "know" this spot and have been coming here forever. A great place for breakfast with a quick turn-around time. There are no vegan-specific items on the menu but something can be cobbled together without the server seeming judgey about it.
