    Acai bowl
    Vanessa A.

    Perfect place for brunch! Lots of seating and everything we ordered was tasty, but overpriced (expected for the location). My family and I agreed that we wouldnt order the acai bowl again as it was too runny/thin. We'd re-order everything else! Staff was friendly. This place was modern and had lots of seating, both indoor/outdoors.

    Bowl 1

    A little sapling across from STARBUCKS, the SLO MORNING CLUB presents California TOAST-GREENS-SMOOTHIES-BOWLS (and a few other carbs) - open to franchising! Ordering on-the-go (grab some PRESSED JUICE or OLIPOP among other fizzy lifting drinks) with the sweet Charlotte. BOWL #1 with strawberry, banana, blueberry & coconut over açaí & chia is not too sweet, helps keep me going!

    Flatbread choices
    Eric F.

    Food: 4.25. Came by on a Wednesday just after 2 pm. I never thought of coming to this place because of the name. I thought this was a vegetarian restaurant but they had flatbread with pepperoni and chicken sandwiches. Place had only a few customers at the time. There is inside and outside seating. Ordering is done at the counter and a numbered sign is given to you to place on your table. I ordered one of their flatbreads (Flatbread 2 - $17). Water is self serve. We sat outside Food was delivered timely, at the right temperature and looked appealing. Flatbread crust was slightly crispy and the overall flavor was very good. Staff was helpful but not necessarily friendly I like this place and will come back

    Açaí bowl
    Donna C.

    Breakfast/brunch place downtown SLO in an alley just off Higuera Street with indoor and outdoor seating. Order at the counter and then place your number on a table and food comes out to you. Great selection - açaí bowl was perfect size. Avocado toast had a generous portion of sprouts. Panini was good, could have been toasted a little more. Seating options inside or outside with plenty of umbrellas and shade. We went on a Saturday late morning and they had a DJ playing music that was so loud we couldn't hold a conversation inside. Was a little better outside but still too loud. It was Family Weekend for Cal Poly so maybe that was why they had the DJ. Probably will go back the next time we are here.

    Great coffee and the on point Açaí bowls. Love the healthy toppings!
    Brooke H.

    Loved this little place for a great/quick/healthy breakfast! They have toasts, salads, Açaí bowls and breakfast sandwiches. We had the açaí bowls which were very big and very fresh with healthy ingredients! Service was great. Coffee was great and they have tons of options. Order at the counter then sit inside or outside. Cute downtown area with fun shopping nearby. Prices were low for the high quality ingredients

    Bowl 4

    This place was awesome! Best breakfast I had in CA! I absolutely loved the variety of the menu and all of the amazing healthy options offered. Also, the staff here were so friendly and some of the most kind people I encountered on my trip. I had the Acai Bowl number 4 and it was phenomenal. I loved the options they had because they had different ingredients blended in the base. Mine had peanut butter, Pitaya, and more, and it was amazing. Their coffee is also good and has such a unique flavor. Can't recommend this enough!

    Stopped in for lunch while visiting SLO and I'm glad I did! This is a great little spot with a clean, healthy menu. They offer Toasts, Paninis, Health Bowls, and a few other options. I ordered Toast 1 with a side salad. It was a light, healthy choice with great flavor -- I'd definitely get it again. Overall: friendly service, relaxed vibe, and clean. If you're in SLO and looking for a healthy meal, I definitely recommend checking this place out!

    Came here for lunch with my parents. It's a fast casual place where you order at the counter, find a seat, and then they bring you your food. There is outdoor and indoor seating, and the service was good. The sandwich was good, but a bit pricey for what you get. The flatbread was excellent and more worth the price imo than the sandwich.

    Iris H.

    This place has a cute outdoor seating area and their menu offers tons of light and healthy breakfast/brunch. I really enjoyed the smoothies #5 (contains coconut water, pitaya, strawberry, coconut banana... etc). It's light and not too thick in consistency for a smoothie.

    Good vibes

    I really loved the Croissant 1 breakfast sandwich! We also shared the Açaí bowl and that was tasty as well. Coffee was fantastic. Everything was delicious. friendly and attentive staff. I would go here every day if it was in my neighborhood in Santa Monica.

    Toast 4

    If you haven't been to Seeds yet, fix that immediately. From the moment you walk in, the space feels effortlessly cool but still cozy -- the kind of place where you can linger over coffee and pretend you don't have responsibilities. But let's talk about the food, because that's the real headline. The smoked salmon toast? Unreal. Perfectly toasted bread with that ideal crunch, layered with silky smoked salmon and fresh, bright toppings that made every bite balanced and flavorful. It felt elevated but not fussy -- just done really, really well. The açai bowl (add peanut butter -- trust me) was next-level. Thick, perfectly chilled açai topped with fresh fruit, and that peanut butter addition made it creamy, rich, and borderline addictive. It was one of those bowls where you slow down because you don't want it to end. And the toasted marshmallow latte? Delectable doesn't even begin to cover it. Smooth espresso with a subtle sweetness and that toasted marshmallow flavor that tastes like a cozy campfire in a cup -- but sophisticated. Not overly sweet, just perfectly balanced. Seeds absolutely nailed it -- amazing food, standout drinks, and a vibe that makes you want to come back the next morning. 10/10, already planning my return.

    Toast 2, Toast 5, Toast 4

    Really delicious brunch spot. The restaurant itself is super open & airy, plus the decor is beautiful. I love, love, love their toast selections & the rest of their menu looks delicious too. Plus, they have a really fun mimosa menu! This is always a must stop when I'm in SLO.

    Always amazing food and amazing customer service, workers always have a smile on their face and are always very polite if you have any questions or concerns. I love being able to order from the kiosk or ordering from the front counter if there is a long line, and so you're able to view all of the different options that they have. Food has always been amazing even when it is busy, and always come out in a timely manner. Also while being a little pricy it is reasonable for the quality of food with all fresh ingredients etc

    What kind of whey protein do they use in their Strength coffee drink?

    Do they open up a waitlist on yelp since they don’t take reservations?

    It's counter service. No need for reservations.

    Is the bread vegan?

    The prairie bread and 9 grain both have honey- we usually recommend these as the closest thing to vegan options but ALL bread come with honey. I hope this helps!

I opted to do a trio with the bahn mi, tip o' Argentina, and the garlic fries. The food was good I forgot to take a picture! The tip o' Argentina was solid with the garlic aioli and the chimmichurri perfectly complimenting the steak and the lettuce and tomato adding a little bit of freshness. The buns they use for all of their sliders are soft, slightly sweet, and don't fall apart while you're eating. The Bahn Mi was even better. I love pork but was a little skeptical about pulled pork on a slider riffing on the flavors of a bahn mi. To my surprise and delight, it tasted just like grilled Vietnamese pork, which was perfectly complimented by the fresh and pickled veggies and surprisingly hot jalapeño. Finally, I got the garlic fries which were a massive portion, crisp, and very garlicky. Everything was good and with such a large and customizable menu, I'd definitely return if I was in the area again. I also want to give a shout out to the bartender, Kelsey. I sat at the bar and her service was attentive and she was very knowledgeable about the menu. We got the opportunity to chat for a bit and I loved her vibe, so definitely consider sitting at the bar if you're dining solo or with a friend.

It is a bit off the beaten path I thought, in a seemingly industrial area and parking was hard to find at 12:30 on a Monday. We had to go down the street and around the corner since the lot was full. I got a Gouda Burger, the summer crunch salad, and garlic fries. My wife and kid also had a slider but did Italian Sprouts, mac and cheese with bacon, and sweet potato fries. The slider was good- tasty but a little messy to eat. Both servings of fries were really generous. The salad was a good mix of ingredients. However the mac and brussels sprouts were a bit disappointing. For some there is no such thing as too much bacon but for us both of these dishes definitely had too much bacon- so much that we left a lot of the bacon! And don't get me wrong, I do enjoy my bacon. Overall, a good concept but we'll definitely try some non bacon dishes next time!

When I travel, I love finding a café that has an alternative vibe, friendly staff, really good coffee, really good food, and a vibe that says, "Hey--you bought an espresso like 5 hours ago. Stay as long as you want!" In other words, it's not a snobby café. It's real. It's authentic. I love it. But it's almost impossible to just get an espresso and leave it at that. The breakfast burritos here are just that good. I strongly recommend the soyrizo breakfast burrito with avocado. They have the recipe down to perfection. You have to travel 20 minutes out of town for anything that comes close. I will be honest here: they do charge a lot for their breakfast burrito... they know what it's worth, unfortunately, and they're going to charge you for it (and the prime downtown location). They also charge a very high credit card processing fee--it's more than any kickback a credit card rewards program would give back--so if you have cash, use that. It's cheaper. Their coffee is very good. You're splitting hairs here when trying to find better coffee, but if you're looking for the best breakfast burrito in San Luis Obispo, this is it. Trust me now, thank me later.

I saw several beautiful drinks on Yelp when I chose The Oak Grill. I walked in, the restaurant is polished and pretty, with the bar an obvious focal point. The server, Chloe, at the door waited for me to speak first, which is awkward to begin with, and I had to verbalize that I wanted breakfast. I mean... why else would I be walking into your restaurant? She explained I order there at the front counter and the food would be brought out to me. That's fine. I asked if they have mimosas and she looked at me and goes, "Mimosas?" Um, yes. Mimosas. She said "Yeah, technically, but it's up to the person working up here if they *want* to make you a drink or not. I mean, technically I'm not a bartender." I seriously almost just walked out based on that answer. You have a full bar, you serve alcohol, but only if the cashier wants to make you a drink? Is the rest of the menu also based on the cashier's discretion? Are you capable of pouring champagne and a splash of orange juice into a glass? There are 5 employees milling about, and none of them are bartenders? So... I'm not impressed by the service here and based on that alone I won't be back. I'm just gonna drink this mimosa, wait for my chilaquiles, ask for a box and bounce. I'm irritated I just paid $50 (yes, $50 for chicken chilaquiles and one begrudgingly made mimosa cost me $50) to feel like I inconvenienced them coming in. I didn't ask for a side order of apathy with my breakfast, and for that price, I'm sure I can find an actual bartender.
