Brunch Restaurants near Oakland, CA

“This is a very nice place, everyone is very kind! there didn't seem to be any wait for small parties, or medium parties, we sat in the outdoor area, there are windows to the street and a flexible roof with lights all around, staff were very nice, we paid 15.95 for a Portal burger and 3.75 for a very sizeable one-person portion of chilli lime fries, which tasted awesome, with great flavor chipotle aioli sauce on the side. The food didn't take very long to come out considering how busy it was and gave us the perfect amount of time to talk. With larger parties, service will likely seem instant. Clean bathroom, great mural outdoors, I absolutely recommend and definitely had a great time here.“

“Was very quick to get seated in the morning and Fabio was fantastic with serving us making sure everything was perfect and on a timely matter, food was amazing and was fairly priced for each person with a high appetite. I Ordered the chicken and waffles and they were amazing with the fried potatoes“

“Really enjoyed my visit to this breakfast spot. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. You can tell they put care into their dishes, and there were plenty of good options to choose from.

The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it a nice place to start the day. Service was friendly overall, though it took a little while to get checked on during the busy hours.

Overall, a great breakfast place with solid food and a comfortable vibe. I’d definitely come back again“

“Very solid Brazilian fare, good beer selection, wonderful service people“

“So good! Everything is made from scratch so it's going to take a little longer. Well worth the wait. We enjoyed the Creme Brulee French toast. Delicious. The handmade pasta with the seared prawns was amazing. The chicken and waffles was also delicious. The drinks were good and we were happy. The manager/Chef is very nice and accommodating. We will be back! I wish they were open during the week for lunch! Soon I hope! Paws crossed!“

“Service was fast and efficient. Food was good.“

“This is my favorite place for brunch; I really enjoy the food and the great service. Everyone who works there makes me feel like part of the family. My daughter and I enjoy it every weekend—the food is amazing and the service is top-notch. I love and enjoy this place so much that I recommend it 1,000%. ❤️“

“When you can tell that a restaurant is a place you want to dine at is when you can see that the line cooks are all happy, and even the dishwashers looked happy! One of the most amazing meals I’ve ever had! Outstanding service: attentive, and thoughtful. Worth the wait! Five stars out of five!“

“Was so excited when we discovered this place! My husband is from Texas and has been craving kolaches, but when we moved here in 2019 none existed in the bay. THRILLED when we discovered Kalaches!

I placed an order for his birthday and they even included the cutest sprinkle-covered sweet kolache!

Incredible food, generous people, convenient location!“

“THE FOOD IS 1000% WORTH THE WAIT!! We arrived around 11 and waited in line for a good amount of time. 30 min? 1 hour? Longer?? I don’t even have a clue because we chatted and looked at all the beautiful scenery there. The staff does a really good job of keeping tables turning and they seat you after you order. I really appreciated how they kept the pace and we didn’t have to find our own table.
The food was sooooo good. We had huevos rancheros, chicken and waffles, tres leches French toast, and a breakfast burrito. The breakfast burrito was just ok but everything else was AMAZING. 🙌🏼 The michelada was the best I’ve ever had EVER. We ordered a fresh squeezed orange juice to go and were blown away. We all agreed that we’d stand in line for the OJ alone! Ugggghhh, it was all so good! I wish we didn’t live 3 hours away!!
OH, the staff were soooo friendly and handled everyone so beautifully. They’ve created something really special and unique there.“

“Huge portions, but for me the food smelled better than it tasted, and actually lacked enough flavor. The Warrior’s Breakfast is huge. The dubai pancake was 100% worth it, but we couldn’t finish it at all with how large our plates were. Outdoor seating too which was really nice.“

“Their food is some of the best I’ve had in quite some time. We stumbled upon this corner restaurant by accident and had zero regrets. Our favorites are the chicken and waffle burrito and their French toast. Their French toast is the best I’ve ever had, soft and flavorful. You must check this place out!“

“I can not express how impressed and blown away I was visiting Neptune’s today “on accident”. I was driving past neptunes today and we ran into car trouble right in front. We got out and pushed the car into the nearest parking lot which happened to be neptunes. We had just bought a used car in the neighborhood and was trying to make it home and the battery just died. We spent some time pulling out the battery and ran next door to the auto parts store to buy a new one. Out of the blue an employee walked us out some water and said “I saw you out here and it’s hot. Wanted to give you some water and ask if you needed help. “ blown away by his kindness I thanked him but we had it covered. Once we got the battery replaced I decided to get breakfast from Neptune’s to show my thanks for their hospitality. Wow was I blown away. The breakfast was amazing , the coffee on point and the hospitality was unmatched. I give 5 stars for all in. My youngest son said. That guy is a good man! And I agree if you’re looking for good service and great food. Stop here! You won’t regret it.“

“Bandit has an excellent breakfast burrito. The interior is small but they have room for tables and standing room. Quick pick-up for take-out as well. I was impressed by this “captain crunch” breakfast burrito. The thick cut bacon made it special. The hot sauce was also well made. This breakfast burrito is easily in my top 5 in San Francisco. I want to try the sandwiches next!“

“Delightful dinner with a group of 6. Love that they have reservations! We had a mixed group of vegans and meat eaters and everyone was very pleased - starters, entrees, spices and flavor was spot on. They even surprisingly brought our friends some birthday ice cream! Terrific service all around.“

“Scones are freshly baked, delicious, yams and eggs, my favorite, it’s healthy and yummy, hot mocha/chocolate taste great, not an ordinary….. love it 😍“

“I do really love this place!
The owner is the one who's attending and she's such a nice person! And, talking about the food... I'd recommend you the Turkey ham croissant... it's really delicious! Or if you want, you can just come to drink a cup of coffee and relax for a while inside.“

“Delicious, fresh and wholesome food! We were visiting from out of town and just googled breakfast in Berkeley, and this place popped up. So glad we chose it, because our food was delicious. Our group had the lox bagel, breakfast burrito, and the jumpstart breakfast with pancakes and bacon. Everything was quality and cooked well. The smoothies and espresso drinks were also great!“
