Food was plated beautifully and everything seemed fresh. Reasonable price given the portion size as well. While overall food was good, nothing I’ll be craving. A couple of notes if you care about the details - potatoes were a little too salty, pancakes when paired without fruit were quite dry, blueberry biscuit was substituted for the ciabatta mentioned on the menu without telling us beforehand.
Overall a great place for brunch vibes! Perfect indoor/outdoor type seating good for any size group with florals. We went early on a Saturday and there weren’t too many people until closer to when we were leaving but they do take reservations if you’re on a schedule and are planning for something closer to prime brunch time. Staff was friendly, water glasses kept full, anticipated needs, and paid the bill right at the table.

We went here for the first time for brunch today, and unfortunately, it will be our last! We had reservations and were seated quickly. It was crowded and really noisy. Our server recommended the Crabby Omelet to my wife, which she ordered. Although it was flavorful, there was just a couple of tea spoons of Dungeness crab meat on top and none inside. For $29.95, we'd expect more crab meat! I had the Ricotta Pancakes, which were very good. We also had a Bloody Mary that was good, but instead of adding a celery that usually comes with a Bloody Mary, this one just had the celery leaves. Our server, wasn't good at all! She never once came by to ask how everything was. We eat at lots of restaurants and this has never happened before. She didn't come by until it was time to pay. Also we ordered two drinks to start and when she brought them, she gave me my wife's drink and mine to my wife!

We used to come to son and garden almost every week before. Until a year ago, we came all the way just for pancakes were souffle, light, fluffy, and had a nice compote on top. Now the pancakes are like anywhere else. The Hawaii scramble is still delicious

The salmon eggs Benedict was 5/5. The fried chicken eggs Benedict was a little dry so 4/5. Overall a beautiful brunch spot with a variety of options. No wait on a Saturday morning.

Have been here twice. The food was ok, got an overcooked Benedict for once. Also the service was a little understaffed (no coffee refill whole time) They do have a wide selection of items on the menu. And a lot of drink options and chefs specials, which are a plus.

Great spot for breakfast or brunch with friends! Has a very large covered outdoor patio with fake flowers hanging from the roof, which creates a lovely ambience. Lots of tables so you can fit groups of all sizes. Long menu of food options including typical breakfast selections as well as some unique dishes. Fun & fancy drink options, including one with an ice bear, and a mimosa flight that looks like a test tube tray.

Great brunch spot in Menlo Park area. Scrumptious food and gorgeous presentation. Great for your eyes and your belly :) Highly recommended.
The food is pretty good here, drinks are hit or miss. Been here a few times and love to visit when going to the Stanford Shopping Center

Low rating even though the place is great because it's right next to the train station it was difficult to have a conversation with the trains coming and going.
The flavor of the food was mediocre. Nothing spectacular. Some of the food was not hot enough, and just overall unmemorable.
The service was the least favorite. The young people are indifferent to the clientele and I see more people talking to each other than checking on the clients

had an exceptional experience at Son and Garden Restaurant. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and timely throughout the entire meal. The food itself was nothing short of amazing, with impeccable preparation and top-notch quality in every dish. Each bite showcased the chef’s dedication to freshness and flavor. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience with excellent service and outstanding cuisine.

Ordered Chicken Bibimbap and Tiramisu latte. Crispy fried chicken and egg with spicy kimchi rice was delicious
Hours are wrong, they were closed when we went
