Enjoyed a nice breakfast, Santa Bacon Benedict with Mexican Mocha. The Benedict was delicious; the mocha, simply amazing! Esther, our server, was friendly and attentive. The place wasn’t busy upon arrival but packed when I left. Overall, a good experience!

Got the Santa Barbara benedict. The taste was unbalanced. Felt like the salmon was brined in something. Taste was off

Interesting, my review has been deleted from 2 months ago.
Location was pretty easy to locate. In a nice shopping area. We were celebrating my birthday brunch after our previous engagement we had that morning, so we absolutely missed our 12:30pm reservation. I called at 11:35am to try to move it to 1:00pm or 1:15pm. No one answered. I then joined the Yelp waitlist to see if I could join that way, that wasn't even considered, as told by the staff. Little did I know my girlfriend who made the reservation was calling as well at 10:30am to see if she could move our reservation. The staff checking in was not friendly. They didn't seem to care that there was like 5-6 different groups waiting. No one wanted to sit outside due to the weather being chilly so yeah, we understand there would be a wait. We then got skipped and a group atter us, waiting outside as well, got called before us, same number of people in our group. The service was not spectacular and just was pretty disappointing. Our waiter was really nice. There was a moment when he forgot about us. Luckily our food came out for us to eat. The Benedict I had was delicious. I tried the potatoes my friend chose for her plate, those were better than the fries with the Benny. We then waited for the French toast which was “specially made” according to our waiter. It was good but I think by the time they came out, we just were over it. We were only able to split the check 2 ways, which wasn't a problem. The restroom was well maintained. I had sticky syrup from the French toast, that I had to grab myself from the condiments table and had to wash my hands. So far, was not impressed and I can see why the door rating is a B.

Nothing to write home about. For two people it was roughly $60-ish, for eggs, potatoes and bread. We got the Denver omelet and Broccoli mushroom benedict, coffee and rose latte. Hasbrown chips was impossible to eat with fork, concept sounds good, but when you have to eat it, pretty much like using a fork on potato chips. Flavor was meh, you could get better bang and flavor for your buck elsewhere.

The Benediction is a great place for breakfast. There is indoor & outdoor seating and a good selection of food items to choose from. I would like other meat options besides pork ones

Our family from Lake Oswego Oregon were here visiting and the first thing they asked "We are hungry and would love to visit somewhere we've never been" I said I have the right place. Another great hit, the service was great our waitress kept our glasses full (coffee ☕☕) and the food was excellent. They kept saying "We need a place like this back home" everyone who couldn't finished took their meals to our house for lunch or breakfast. We will return again to our favorite place. I don't remember our waitress name she was outstanding with our party of six
Went this morning, it was pretty cool. Got the House Benedict and Pear Thyme Mimosa in a jar. Maybe my taste buds are too poor, but I didn’t really taste any pear or thyme, just “oh that’s champagne”. Which I wasn’t going to complain about, I like champagne, but I like pears too, and I ordered that mimosa because I like pears. Maybe the champagne just cuts through whatever juice or flavoring is added. I can see that. The House Benedict was good, but nothing incredible. I could have made it at home for a fraction of the price. Hash chips were just above school cafeteria level.
Maybe I got the wrong thing, but I kind of expected a place called The Benediction to have some fire eggs benedict. And I’m sorry, but it just did not merit the price tag. This might be the worst price-to-food quality ratio I’ve experienced, to be frank. It has a B rating in food safety, too, which is just a little off putting to me considering most places can eek out an A. They also offer all these vegan and alternative options, which is cool. Maybe I’m just not rich enough to appreciate this yet. I’ll amend this if anything changes when I return as a billionaire, but for now, I’m feeling pretty eh on this place.
Edit: went here again. Have nothing to say that would improve my opinion. Place is still just… eh. Got the smoked salmon Benedict, and it had the problem of the salmon just kind of overpowering every other flavor element in the dish. Arugula salad was good, but it’s literally arugula and a simple vinaigrette. And the price was just too much.
Overall, this place just seems like a hangout place/status symbol for rich white and Asian housewives with nothing better to do. If you have the time and money and talent to cook, there’s no reason to spend your money here. Just the worst food quality to price ratio I’ve ever experienced. Service was great, though.
