The Brownstone Cafe

Ordered the meat lovers omelette with sour cream and avocado. Fantastic omelette. Potatoes have a great texture to them but do taste slightly like chorizo which was good to my girlfriend but I wasn’t too big a fan. The three cheese sandwich tasted home made. Nothing crazy but not offensive. The tomato bisque was sweet for me which I did not like. Food overall was a 7/10. Atmosphere 10/10. Service for the amount of staff I’d say was about 10/10.

Quaint , quiet place being a throwback in time ........
Being to Folsom Powerhouse ( first ever to use 60 Hertz as new technology in 1895 delivering to Sacramento )
Visited July 23-2024 @ 10:00 . Is unfair that not a 4 1/2 star is rendered in system... Was brought a glass of ice water before being offered any drinks , in retrospect she was a very perceptive waitress noticing that I was about to break a sweat. Easily becoming a 5 star review for service ... ...
Notice in pic that the location is grandiose - South facing and the slighlty wet patio - perfect for a summer outing -. A mini bouquet in every table indoors adding to the ambiance. .....
Arched , brick old building as shown ...

Food was delicious .First time ever in my 60+ reviews history that the cook came to my table to thank me for letting him cook to my order .

Only thing CLASHING is the hanging pictures .
Right motif - food/veggies ; but modernistic colors .
Colors are too vibrant , need subdued colours to a full epic throwback in time

My daughter found this restaurant online so we decided to give it a try. We came early, about 12:30 on New Year's Eve and by 1pm, the place was filling up. The menu had a mix of food for my entire family. I had the burger with an extra patty, my 14 year old son tried the grilled cheese (he's ALWAYS a burger kid), my daughter had the egg sandwich and my wife had the burrito. All the food was high quality and fresh, especially for the price. It's my understanding the menu does change from time to time depending on the popularity of items.But what really made me write this review was our server JULES (name on receipt). She was just a pleasure to talk to. She told us about popular items on the menu, talked about the new fish menu, told us how their beer selections are made and how long she's been working there.I can't say enough about our positive experience. We look forward to returning and hopefully seeing Jules again. I hope our review can be shared with her because she deserves the accolades.

Had real nice lunch on an outdoor patio. Waitress super friendly. Cook came out to our table to see if everything was okay. This was a plus. Made me and my party feel special. Eggs benedict looked amazing but I hadd eggs scramble. My mother had the chicken wrap which she was very pleased with. I definitely will be back to try that egg benedict. The outdoor eating area super chill and relaxing. Also overheard that the tomato bisque soup is the best.

So yummy and devouring

I asked for some very specific things to happen with my omelette. They gave me no pushback whatsoever and produced exactly what I asked for. Amazing.The atrium vibe is immaculate.

Cold food and cold coffee. Slow service. Bloody Mary…? Did it have any Vodka? Tried it 3 times.

We usually love this place second time there had the worst experience with a very rude waitress. I don’t remember her name she was extensively rude and judgmental made us feel really uncomfortable please if the owner sees this let me know how I can contact you about this thank you

I'll be up front, I did not actually eat here. My girlfriend and I arrived and the location is very nice, a courtyard in a Spanish style building with lots of plants. However, when we arrived we were greeted with a sort of scattered brained waitress who seemed really stressed. Then we heard another waitress say something along the lines of "let them be mad, we are short staffed". Then we saw a man go up and hand deliver his card and check to one of the waitresses as if he'd been waiting a long time for it to be picked up. All this did not give me good vibes about eating here, so we left after requesting a table for 2.All in all, I don't blame the waitstaff if they don't have enough help. Shame, because it is a great location.

Excellent food, service, location and perfect for doggies. It's the main reason we picked this restaurant as we traveled with our senior dog. Lots of other nice local shops in the building. Would definitely go back for more exploring
