We enjoyed a Sunday morning breakfast here. We had the cardamom coffee bun and shakshuka.

We ordered two different omelette and they were both great! Staff here were also very friendly. Great experience overall.

Amazing brunch spot with great customer service! Highly recommend, shoutout Lisa. Great ambiance inside as well.

Hands down my favorite location for all meals - breakfast/lunch/dinner in downtown Palo Alto! I do not get tired of Sprout Cafe. My favorite lunch or dinner order is the salmon with a side of mashed potatoes + grilled veggies. My husband loves the sous vide hanger steak and the kids love their kid-friendly options. The staff is so friendly, kind and super attentive - shout out to Roberto who remembers customers by name and makes everyone feel special. I love the team and the menu. Highly recommend. read more

This place is a staple lunch spot in downtown Palo Alto - surprised I hadn't tried it earlier! They have a huge menu of sandwiches, salads, and drinks, as well as some breakfast items that are served through lunch. While prices are aligned with most trendy casual PA restaurants ($20 per entree before tax and tip), the quality of the food and service was very impressive. I got a salmon salad and it came out very fast and the toppings were so fresh and tasty. You do order at the counter but I didn't realize they had more service - a kind server brought us water, silverware, and bussed our table! I would have tipped more if I had known. Overall a great place for a quick lunch. They have plenty of indoor seating and a few outdoor tables to enjoy dining al fresco as well. read more

We came here for brunch over the weekend and ordered the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon. I really liked the bun the eggs were served on - it made the dish feel a little more special. Everything tasted good, and we would definitely come back again to try more items from the menu. The service was standard, and the atmosphere inside was pretty typical, but overall we had a nice brunch experience. read more

3.5 stars -- Great Variety and Vibe, Mediocre Execution Sprout has come a long way since its days of just sandwiches and salads. The recent renovation and expanded menu--now featuring everything from mochi waffles to eggs benedict--make it a versatile, family-friendly spot for large groups. The Food: - The Highlights: The presentation is excellent across the board. The cauliflower was the absolute standout; I'll likely order it as a main next time. I loved that there was a kids menu option. The brioche buns were nice and soft, so fresh! The service was excellent and friendly. - The Mid-tier: The fried chicken was fine, but nothing special. - The Lowlights: Most of the brunch staples were disappointing. The pancakes were dry, and both the waffles and French toast were over-cooked to a brittle, dry texture. Verdict: It's a nice casual option for the atmosphere and variety, will come back with the family, and perhaps will order the salads next time. read more

Always a great experience at Sprout Cafe! The food is consistently excellent--fresh, delicious, and never disappoints. Roberto was wonderful--friendly, attentive, and made our visit even better. Highly recommend! read more

Came here after taking family portrait at Elizabeth E Gamble garden. This was my friend favorite spot when she worked in the area. Overall the food is nicely plated and the portion larger than I expected. Usually I don't get salad but the salmon salad description sounded pretty good. The main con is that it takes some time for the food to come out so not really a quick lunch spot but is fine for social. Would love to check out their brunch next time. read more

Cute little cafe! There was outdoor seating so I was able to bring my dog with me for lunch. I recommend the fried chicken sandwich. The chicken tasted very high quality and the fried egg was a nice touch. I also like the house sauce they used with it. The chicken was very crispy and juicy. It looked like the burger used 2 top buns instead of a bottom bun which was a pleasant surprise! The side salad it came with was okay. Overall the staff were friendly and check in on us frequently. read more

Sprout Cafe - Chicken Breakfast Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Palo Alto, California

I got the chipotle chicken sandwich, so yummy. And the side salad was so refreshing. I loveeeed the water they offer. I can't wait to try their salads especially making your own. Their breakfast options look great but only available on the weekends. Finding parking can be a challenge which has prevented me from making another visit as fast as I want but I would definitely come back. The place is cute with enough seating. You order at the counter, so the service is minimal. I will say I noticed tables needing to be cleaned but the whole time we were there, multiple tables around us were not cleaned yet. So I think that's the only thing I noticed about service! read more

This is my second time coming in since the remodel. As a vegetarian eating salads can be a sort of hum drum experience. I have come twice for the Southwest salad, minus the bacon, sub for their tofu. Sauce on the side. Phenomenal both times. Like if you need to increase ur salad intake for health reasons this would be the spot, very fresh. Service: stellar! Chatted with person who took my order today and he was polite, engaged, and made a perfect recommendation for my wife to try as this was her first time. Apologies for. Or remembering his name but he was great and even the cook acknowledged us and waved. The inside looks way better than before, I love the community high table!! They got a glow up for sure!! Highly recommend eating here, having meetings here, even drinks available are responsible prices. As you can see from photo I was tearing up that salad!! read more

Was craving a big bowl of delicious healthy salad and found this place near my office. Had lunch today on a Friday afternoon. I am surprised why this place doesnt have more ratings and reviews on Yelp. I ordered the build your own salad bowl w/ full salad with mixed greens and curly kale, toppings, curried chicken(+4) and green goddess dressing. Huge portions, I was so full that I even took a little togo. They even serve fresh foccasia bread to go w/ the meal plates. I enjoyed my meal. Service is decent, its order at the counter and they serve you at the table. I love the ambiance. Its like a modern cafe w/ stylish interiors and library feels from the books. Maybe this mama has not had a solo lunch date by herself in a long while, I thoroughly enjoyed this experience today in serenity. haha. read more

Sprout Cafe - Full Custom Salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Palo Alto, California

Sprout Cafe, I Love You! You were my first love and introduced me to the world of Salad. Before that, I never appreciated eating like a rabbit. Since 2009, I've been captivated by the extraordinary variety of salads - made with quality ingredients and delicious dressings. Pictured here is the Davy salad (arugula, shaved fennel, candided walnuts, white cheddar cheese, corn, avocado and red onions with sesame-ginger dressing). I subbed out the arugula with romaine lettuce, added Furikake Tofu with salmon served on the side. Definitely a hearty favorite! My only ask is to bring back the old favorites - Kyoto and Harvest! Friendly and efficient service in a comfortable, aesthetically pleasing dining room with a high ceiling and wall of natural lighting from windows. read more

OK, so first off, I apologize. You might ask why? Well, my wife and I came in looking for some good eats, and Sprouts came up as we were walking on a summer day. I was one of Sprouts' first customers years ago when they first opened and was always a fan, but it's been years since I drove up to my old stomping grounds. Their menu has evolved over the years, and it's less of a salad place and now serves all sorts of goodies. My wife and I split a Chipotle chicken sandwich and the rancher steak sandwich. After a short wait and a nice talk with our waiter, we were pleasantly surprised at the size and delicious smell of the sandwiches that appeared in front of us. Both sandwiches had a nice green salad complementing the order. The sandwiches were amazing; I'm a huge carnivore and was in heaven. My wife and I did our usual thing and split each half, and my gosh, we went silent before we knew it; the plates were left trembling... so now why the apology? I enjoyed the food the moment it hit the table that I forgot to take a picture. I guess that means that I'll have to find another excuse to come on up to Palo Alto. This time, I'll make room for the bread pudding dessert! read more

Usually love ordering here on DoorDash. Today was disappointing. The dumpling soup is usually my go to but today the soup tasted very odd. It tasted like old broth.. sour and extremely salty due to being boiled too many times. The pan cake tasted off and bitter.. so when we flipped it over, we realized it was burnt. Yikes... read more

The food was delicious, generous portions, good vibes inside. It's nice to have good food in a restaurant that doesn't feel so upscale.

We love coming here, not just for the food, and the great location but for the fantastic customer service (Thanks to Roberto!!!)

Very clean and hipster atmosphere. We had a large party of 20 and we weren't sure if they'd be able to seat us all but they did. We split up adults and teenagers. Service was good. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The menu had lots of brunch options and also lunch options. Hard to choose as everything sounded delicious. They have vegetarian and vegan options. My family ordered: California Omelet - the ingredients were fresh with great color! Delicious. The salad nice. It isn't just bagged salad. Two egg breakfast with bacon - they cooked my eggs exactly how I ordered them. The levain toast was perfectly toasted. Moffles - nicely plated with fresh fruit. Wished it was chewier but it was yummy. Will come back here next time we're in the area. read more
