    Ube toast for $21
    Danessa L.

    Thai brunch in Alameda! It has a sizable indoor seating but somehow easy to miss when walking past on the main drag in Alameda. We wanted to try the pandan toast but it wasn't available. We had the ube instead, it was Ok. $20 seems expensive for two pieces of toast and sauce. Prettier in pictures. Recommend the Tom Yum Reduction though! Tasty and filling.

    If this is the "peak," I'd hate to see what their bottom is. Had a reservation, but still had to wait 40 minutes. Service is slow and unhelpful. My eel dish had lukewarm small eel that tasted like it was from a packet, bland slow, lukewarm eggs, and lukewarm rice. Totally not worth it. My friend had the deconstructed Tom YUM, I guess it was okay, though she boxed most of it to go. The mango sticky rice was awful. Way too sweet, doused in syrup with bitter mangos for $13. Overall with tax and tip $100 for 2 people, was not worth it and I do not understand the hype. I heard kids and parents around us talking about how great the pancakes are, but we didn't feel like pancakes, so that's that.

    Stopped by Peak for a last-minute brunch and it was a pretty good experience. I was curious to try out Peak for a little while but didn't get around it. The restaurant is warm and inviting with some simple decorations and touches of color. We arrived shortly after opening time and were the first ones dining in, but a steady stream of customers started coming in gradually. The brunch menu has a good amount of sweet and savory items, although the prices for certain items were a bit steep. They have multiple types of coffee and tea drinks available. I opted to order an iced lavender latte, which was quite tasty and did not have an overpowering flavor of lavender and the sweetness was just right. I also ordered the creme brûlée toast, which was a smaller portion, with one piece of brioche toast and had a nice texture and a delicious vanilla custard topping with fresh fruit. We also had a side of fruit, which seemed a bit lackluster for the $9 price. They included a small plate of sliced apple and oranges, some blueberries and cherries and 1-2 strawberries sliced thinly. Food was pretty good, but I am curious about how the savory egg dishes taste. Service was friendly and attentive, as we had to flag down a staff member for a few different items more than once. They responded promptly and were kind. However, with 2 iced drinks, 2 small-ish entrees, and a side of fruit, the total with tax was just under $60 before tip. I think Peak could be a solid brunch spot with some minimal improvements. Overall, I'd recommend trying out Peak if you're in the area.

    Parking: Came here after a workout session with my brother and found out it's a hole in the wall restaurant so parking is on the street and of course you gotta pay the meter. Ambiance: it was nice and cozy, the decor was actually really lovely with. Nice cafe vibe. Service: service was actually really good. The servers were attentive and flexible. Food: tasty and came out fast, had the drunken noodles which were good and whatever ramen dish they had on the same page as drunken noodles. Very flavorless squid so watch out for that. And the sodas I assume is made with club soda and syrup cause that's what their lychee soda tastes like. It's alameda so I knew the menu items were going to be pricey. That's fine. But I had mango sticky rice to go and I gotta say, a small box of rice with half a mango in it for $13? Nah, that was $6 at best.

    We tried this new brunch spot and it did not disappoint. It has a spacious and modern interior and comfortable seating. We made a reservation for the weekend and got seated shortly. The food was aesthetic and tasty. Highlights was definitely the Tom Yum reduction. Super flavorful broth with egg and rice. Bacon was perfectly cooked and our pancakes were fluffy and light. This is a nice local gem that doesn't have too long of a wait and can satisfy a Thai brunch craving!

    Thai Tom Yum Reduction

    Our favorite was the tom yum reduction. Service was amazing. We were a table of four and finished everything, no crumbs left behind! The server even commented "wow ate everything!"

    Tom yum reduction

    Came here for brunch on a rainy weekend and there was no line at 11am. We made a reservation but definitely didn't need to. The food was tasty but felt like a cozy home cooked meal. I enjoyed the flavor of the Tom Yum reduction and my husband liked the fried rice in the Uncle Sam fried rice. The restaurant is spacious with lots of natural light and fresh florals which make the space very cozy. Parking is on the street only. We had to park around the corner in the neighborhood to park for free.

    Tom yum reduction
    Nancy H.

    Came here for a late brunch on Saturday and luckily there was no wait. Parking was a little tricky though, I ended up parking in a nearby neighborhood and walking over. For the table, we ordered the Tom Yum reduction, pandan brioche toast, and pandan pancakes. The Tom Yum dish wasn't bad, it had some nice citrusy, tangy flavors inspired by the classic Thai soup, but it didn't stand out much. The pandan brioche toast unfortunately missed the mark for us. The toast itself was extremely dry, which made it hard to enjoy even with the pandan sauce. The pandan pancakes were decent with a light sweetness and soft texture, but overall nothing particularly memorable. Service was standard and the food came out at a reasonable pace, and the place itself has a nice atmosphere. That said, the food didn't quite live up to the hype for us. Not terrible by any means, but you can probably find better brunch options elsewhere in the area.

    Chicken Curry
    Lauryn T.

    I have been wanting to try Peak for a while since it opened on the West End. Went during a random weekend, we got seated right away which was nice. We ordered the yellow curry with chicken and drunken noodle. Both delicious and fantastic classic Thai dishes! The service was amazing, the waitresses were attentive and accommodating to what we needed.

    Cream brûlée toast
    Sophia L.

    Great late lunch option! Got drunken noodles & pineapple fried rice along with a beautiful dessert cream brûlée toast. They were perfectly made by the chef, we love the "wok" flavor in both rice & noodles. Cream brûlée toast was authentic. Service was quick & caring. Overall, A lovely place to have a lunch in Alameda.

    Seafood tomyum omurice
    Julia S.

    I absolutely loved the food here. I love brunch, I love Thai food--and Thai brunch is kind of a no-brainer. Everything we tried was really good, and while the dishes themselves are clearly Thai brunch-style (so not traditional in form), the flavors were very authentic. That balance was actually what made it so enjoyable. The standout dish for me was the tom yum seafood omurice. I still think about it sometimes--it was that good. Savory, tangy, loaded with seafood, and the sauce was just perfectly done. We also ordered the soup potato fries, which were crispy, fresh, and super satisfying--honestly a great side. And of course, we had to get the boat noodle soup, since it's my husband's favorite and not something every Thai restaurant offers. Their version was very flavorful and easily one of the better ones we've had. In general, places that serve boat noodles tend to be more authentic, and this one definitely delivered. If this spot weren't all the way in Alameda, I'd probably be here all the time. If you're into Thai food and brunch, this place is absolutely worth checking out.

    Smoked Duck Benedict
    Sherry G.

    When I saw the menu for this place, I was so excited. Everything sounded delicious. So good, in fact, that I thought there would be a line. Fortunately, there were quite a few tables available, so we were sat immediately. My table of two ordered the following: Smoked Duck Benedict - The duck was dry. The egg was fine, and the tater tots were okay, though could've been slightly crispier. Chocolate Ferrero Rocher Pancake - I should've read the details. I thought it was going to be Ferrero Rocher batter, but it was simply pancakes that were slightly better than IHOP with hazelnut chocolate cream on top. I would've preferred that the pancakes were layered with the cream (like a cake), so the cream could add more sweetness throughout the bite. Overall, this place has great promise, but the execution was average. I do like that they have reusable foodware (see Eco Notes below).

    Fried chicken fried rice
    Win L.

    Cute brunch/thai restaurant in Alameda! The menu has typical American brunch options as well as Thai lunch specials. Prices were on par with Bay Area restaurants. Flavors were really good and large portions. Stand out was the fried chicken and fried rice - the seasoning was really delicious and memorable. Chicken here is white meat - yay!! Service was prompt and she frequently topped off our waters. All items were presented soon after ordering. No complaints at all! I wouldn't make special effort to return but definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. No outside seating. Metered parking along the street.

With their lunches, they offer a soup and then choice of a side. I never understand why the soup comes out with the sandwich or even after the sandwich is delivered. To me soup is always a starter. They say it is being made fresh in the back, which I don't understand how you make a cup of soup fresh every time. Also, in the past, I've always ordered an iced tea which came with free refills. That's common at most restaurants. However, this time I was charged $3.50 each for two iced teas. I questioned it and the server said that it was correct. I checked the menu to see if I'd overlook something, but there is no mention about a no refills policy. An inconsistency for sure.

I sat back and the bench seat was broken. A gentleman raced over and switched the bench seats. Wow, you have to be careful when you sit down at Cape 7. I ordered a Denver Omelette w/ hash browns, a side of Pancakes, and Coffee. It took about 10-min for my food to come. By 9am more customers came in. After my food arrived, I didn't see a waitress or waiter for 20-mins. Then the owner arrived, and a waitress checked on my table every 5 mins. The Denver Omelette was made with 4 eggs. The serving size was pretty large. The two pancakes were a bit dry. I needed more butter and syrup. Instead, I used alot of jams (that were on the table). The food was okay, I might come back for breakfast again. Off street parking lot in back.
