Food: delicious. I forgot what we got but it was great. Took a while to get our order taken but after that we got the food pretty quickly. Service: great, except there was only 1 waitress for the whole space when we went, so she was harried. But she did great and didn't mess up our orders and remained pleasant, if stressed. Ambience: beautiful decor, spacious. Loved the outdoor space. When we initially were there, there was no one else so ot was quiet, peaceful and we could hear the songbirds and a small group of adorable birds flying around. Price: pretty reasonable actually considering how nice the place was. Cheaper actually than some other brunch places! Would come again. Close to daycare so definitely have plans :) read more

Great friendly service with a large variety of wonderful food items on the menu! Highly recommend! Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Yummy

Great food, service and beautiful Quarry Pond view! Five (5) stars Keep up the good work! read more

Lisa was amazing. Such friendly waitstaff is always the best!! Would want her every time I patronize. We ordered Fruit bowl - came with blueberries, grapes, pineapple, and watermelon. Country Breakfast - was DE-LICI-OUS! So filling. Honestly I couldn't finish it. Everything melted in my mouth. Joe's Special - it was very good and filling. Lots of flavor and texture. Strawberry Lemonade -- refreshing and classic We sat outside and I would 100% come back here again. Their menu had a lot of options and ensured whatever you wanted you could get. read more

Oak Leaf Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Granite Bay, California

We went for a Sunday morning breakfast. The ambience is lovely and our waitress was outstanding. But the main reason we went there was because the weather was unusually cool for the area in July and we hoped to eat outside. We were told the bugs were too bad. I was okay with that but I did not appreciate being told by one of the waiters" I'm not serving anyone out there". I had the ham and cheese omelet which was okay - better than most - but I could not finish it within an hour. I see Tons of videos on YouTube explaining how to make an omelet so I am always amazed that it is virtually impossible to get a decent omelet in America. They add milk to make it rubbery and overcook it. I cooked myself an omelet the next day and I slurped it up in a couple of minutes, because it was delicious and not chewy. read more

Nestled within Quarry Ponds Town Center, Oak Leaf Cafe is a narrow restaurant as seen from the vast parking lot. Even the OPEN sign was blocked by a post outside so I only knew they were open by trusty Yelp! We walked in and were seated immediately by a friendly waitress with a great smile. The restaurant opens up after passing a few tables and the cooking area to reveal a beautiful view of Quarry Pond. There is a large tv in the back of the restaurant airing the football game on this Sunday morning and tables all around ordering mimosas. We were having a PG post-church breakfast so we just stuck to the food. Here's our take on what we ate: Steak and Eggs - 8 - Potaties could have been crispier and had more seasoning. Steak and eggs were great. Seems like they lightly marinated the steak and seasoned it well on the grill. Quarry Pond Avocado Toast - 5 - Didn't have basil flavors and toast wasn't toasted enough to hold the avocado. Chicken Fried Steak - 7 - This is the smallest portion I've seen for chicken fried steak but it was enough to fill me up after 4 slices of toast. Good crust on the meat but some pieces tasted of flour. The gravy was pretty good but not quite that homemade flavor we get in our house. The eggs were cooked perfectly. In retrospect, maybe I'm getting old but $4 for a glass of milk and $4 per cup of coffee felt a little pricey. While the food was average and proportions below average, the ambiance, service and view separate this breakfast stop from the rest of the pack. If elegance is what you seek, this is a classy place to have a morning bite but there is better food out there. read more

1. The food, we've had better. 2. Service was just adequate. One other couple was there and yet our waitress kept disappearing up front at the bar area, texting on her phone. 3. Ambiance? What ambiance?? We were constantly swatting and fighting off the flys. We were inside but might as well been outside enjoying nature. Fly were in abundance to fight for what we were eating. read more

Beautiful atmosphere and great service by lisa! We stopped here for the first time for a late brunch. She was on top of everything and really enjoyed our experience. Will be back! Also the iced tea was amazing :p read more

Third time here. Our server was friendly and attentive. Food was pretty good and when the weather cooperates it's nice to sit in the patio because there are very few outdoor patios with a view around here. Will visit again. read more

I've been here several times for breakfast. The food is great, the service is awesome, and it has a cool upscale diner vibe.

When I came it was Saturday morning so quite busy. There were available tables and I did not have to wait long to be seated. Upon entry the host was no where to be found so I waited in the entrance for a little. I was seated once the host came back and spotted me. Some food had burnt so the whole front of the restaurant was very smokey and made it a little hard to breathe. Very loud inside and not very clean. I ordered sausage links, a mimosa, and breakfast potatoes. The food arrived and I didn't get any silverware brought to the table until the food almost got cold. The sausage links were very good and the mimosa was decent but champagne used for it was very low quality. Potato's had a salt water taste to them which wasn't very good. Overall I would probably not visit again for the price. read more

Food was delicious! Our waiter was patient and courteous. Prices a bit much, but I don't eat out often, so it was worth it.

My Mother told me to come here, as it is her favorite place, so me and the hubby decided to check it out. Food was amazing, and if you have the chance to get their artichoke omelette, do it quickly. It was so good. Our service was excellent and our waiter Aydin served us and had no problem making me laugh! He was very professional as well! There was a large party when we arrived but the kitchen still got our food out very quickly, and it is a cool place to sit in a booth in front of the kitchen as well. read more

I'll start off with the best. Nice little place with a wonderful patio area overlooking a lovely pond. Really. It's so nice! I would give the patio a five stars! Menu options would be a four. Lots of choices! The food is good but of average diner quality. 3.5 stars. Portion size and plating were good. I got the steak and eggs special -- a lovely deal for 10.99 during weekdays. Steak had lots of gristle and was way over cooked, but I was appreciative of the reasonable price and you have to keep your expectations realistic, right?! Wish server had told us about their specials, though. Only knew cuz they were listed on their website. The big downer for us was the ambiance. Apparently they are trying remodel while keeping the place open.... Uhhhh. No.... That's not working. lol. Waitresses seemed out of synch and frustrated. Server was sweet, but she was really inefficient. Could tell she was frustrated and it showed, making us anxious. My gosh, how I wish it had been a sunny day so we could sit outside! Overall, it was a "meh" experience but I see such potential and will return in a few months. Will return when weather is better so I can enjoy that great patio area. Hopefully, the remodel will be complete by then read more

Had breakfast at this lovely establishment this morning. There is inside as well as outdoor seating. We sat outdoors and it was very nice. I ordered the crab cake Benedict and the other two had the Cali bene. All came with their house potatoes which were only ok. Some crisp and a bit more flavor would have been helpful. The bene's were very good! Randy enjoyed their coffee too. Excellent, friendly customer service. Will definitely go back! read more

When traveling to the area from reno and traveling from this area back to Reno, we stop here for breakfast or lunch. We have been coming for awhile, when they first opened and just recently, as in yesterday. In there opening state, it was very bright and clean. As time has passed the restaurant looks and feels dirty. They don't have a good exhaust system because it's smokey each time we've gone inside the dining area and they won't open a door for air circulation. Their thermostat is set to like 81 degrees so it's smokey and not comfortable. The bathrooms, sticky. They don't get deep cleaned regularly and they just have toilet paper out everywhere. Like everywhere. Then comes the food, it's going downhill... it's a lean kitchen but the quality of the food seems to have changed as well as the care in the food preparation and presentation as well. This last visit was annoying for me... it was smokey in the restaurant, the quality of the food has cheapened and it was hot in the restaurant on an excessive heat day and after tip, spent $70 for nothing of quality or value. We're unsure if we are going to continue visiting. read more

Good fresh and tasty. Clean atmosphere and service great. Eggs are not overdone and seems like everything else has not been sitting around. Servers get food to you while still hot. read more

I heard of this place and went there couple of times, so this is not my first time. The location and the restaurant is really beautiful. Service was good, the food on the other hand for me is getting worse and worse not sure why. It's very sloppy, it's like they throw your food on the plate. My avocado sandwich literally had 3 cut small pieces, which I had spread out. Chicken strips looked burnt. So not sure what's going with food. Really like the location and service but food not so much! read more

We went there for dinner tonight and thought the food was wonderful. The ambience is very nice (modern) and our meals were very fresh and tasty. My husband had the lasagna and I had 2 starters, bruschetta and Caprese salad. We tried a little of all 3 dishes and both agreed it was fabulous. Our server was also very friendly and efficient. We felt bad that it was so dead inside there and the server said it's because they just started serving dinner 2 months ago. I hope this review helps to get more people to dine there for dinner. read more

We came late today, about 1:30. We really wanted breakfast and this is open until 4pm. They serve breakfast and lunch. First time here. Very nice rustic place. Love the wood and marble tables with metal farmhouse chairs, they have booth seating as well. It also has patio seating and a large pond behind the restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food had great flavor. Nothing was bland, it was seasoned well and cooked well. Hubby got the country breakfast and the o my complaint was it really needed more gravy but tasted good still. I ordered the country skillet which doesn't come w gravy but I think it would be over the top good if it did! It was still pretty good and had a good flavor profile. The coffee wasn't super hot and maybe needed a fresh brew, but this was understandable since it was late in the afternoon, but wasn't worth the $4 cost for it! Overall we really enjoyed it and look forward to visiting again to taste more from the menu! read more

This place was a great find! They were super kind to us and our kiddos (even offering to make them things off the menu). I got a BLT and it was truly delicious. All of the items we ordered were made with a lot of care and with high quality ingredients. Thank you for being so kind to us and our over stimulated kids! It means a lot read more

Nice place for brunch, but I did have to send back uncooked eggs, twice. The waitress kept passing us by to cater to the larger party in their banquet room. So we were there longer than we thought we would be. It's best to make reservations on weekends. read more

The lady that showed us to our table was nice but the waiter never smiled and showed no personality. There was nothing on the table, no S&P, no flowers, no nothing. The patio had no plants or decor of any kind. The food was good and came at a reasonable time. We won't go back. read more

Talk about rude and terrible. 3 different waitress passed by and none of them acknowledged us and when I grabbed their attention, they were beyond rude. No smile no hello no hey how r u.

The restaurant was not full but we walked in and were not greeted by anyone. Eventually the waitress looked at us and said sit anywhere. It then took 20 mins for her to take our order and then another 30 mins for the appetizers we ordered to actually come. The other tables were also waiting for a while. The fried calamari was odd it was long strips and looked more like mozzarella sticks. Then it took forever to finally pay the bill. As we were leaving we saw the cooks just opening a package of foster farms pre packaged wings to make for the table that had ordered them. Overall would not come back. read more

A friend and I just had breakfast this morning at the Oak Leaf. At first, we chose to sit at a booth inside but almost immediately decided to move to an outside table because it was such a beautiful morning. No problem. Our server, Aydin, found us in our new location and proceeded to provide EXCELLENT service throughout the meal. The setting was beautiful, under cover and adjacent to a promenade, with the lagoon and natural wildlife area beyond. As the finches cavorted about, Aydin met all our silly requests, "Could I get tomatoes and mushrooms in that omelet? two waters, one with no ice, yada, yada," and did so with patience, professionalism and humor. The food was great and with Aydin in charge the entire experience was nothing short of great. I highly recommend the joint. read more

Such a beautiful space with a fantastic view. I wish we would have been offered outdoor seating. I suppose we could have asked but there was no one on the patio. We were greeted and seated immediately and ordered soon after. The food arrived quickly and the plates were full. There were so many potatoes, I was able to take them home for breakfast the next day. The food for me was just okay. The potatoes were dry as if they'd been precooked and then rewarmed to order. I also found the hollandaise thin and runny and the Joe's special a little dry as well. We don't live close by but were out running errands and stopped in after having seen them on a morning show a few months ago. A return visit is probably not in the cards. read more

I've always loved this place, but was underwhelmed and disappointed this last time. The service was just okay. No refilling of drinks unless we asked, mimosa was not made right (and don't expect any garnish), but most importantly, I ordered the Chile Verde omelet and got a steak picada with chile colorado. I mentioned it to the server who said this is how they always make it. The menu very clearly states it is pork ... and verde means green. My sauce was clearly red (colorado). Puras fallas! read more

TL;DR: Solid brunch spot for classic American favorites. A bit on the higher-moderate price range, but still a good time. Came by with some friends on a Saturday morning after seeing it on Yelp, around 11:30. We were seated quickly indoors, though they have outdoor seating available as well. We got to sit right across from where the chefs cooked the food, and could see each order coming out steaming hot. The service was very friendly, and I was a fan of the modern-diner, sort of minimalist aesthetic of the place. Their menu boasts a wide variety of options, and we decided on ordering a Chicken and Waffles ($16), a Country Breakfast ($15), and a Chicken Parmesan ($18). We also asked for a side order of regular fries, despite not seeing that explicitly on the menu, and they were happy to comply ($5). The food came quite quickly, and though the Chicken and Waffles were a bit underseasoned and lacking, the Country Breakfast and Chicken Parm delivered both in portion size and flavor. Overall, while not the absolute best brunch place that I've ever had, Oak Leaf is at least worth checking out to see if its (slightly pricey) foods are worth the fare. read more
