You've read the reviews. This was a COVID restaurant and it was barely okay then never had good service over 6 visits. Now they've quit. They're out of business and too late.

The ambience of a cement floor garage.
Food like a hospital cafeteria.
Slow service
Over priced.
They have a bar, so there's that

I was here with my bestie and we were only going to stay out for 2 hours. Brunch, mimosas, girl talk to be at home for a nap. Upon walking in I was unexpectedly met with live music. A lady and man on guitar, singing and this made me smile. We ordered immediately because I knew I wanted waffles. Omg it was so good!! Then my friend got the cheese blintzes she was in heaven. The hashbrowns were the best I've had in a long time. We were having such a good time and thr staff was so friendly we hadn't realized 4 hours had passed and we needed to nibble again in the truffle fries.. 2 orders 😆
We definitely will be back to try more on the menu.

I first went here back in March 2025 and the place was packed and lively. There were plenty of servers and the service itself was great. The food was fresh and good. Fast forward to January 2026, the place was DEAD. There was only one server doing EVERYTHING. The music was so low you couldn’t hear and at one point it went silent. The food was not good. I ordered breakfast again and it got me sick for days !!! My cousin ordered mozzarella sticks and they were cold. Two more parties walked in after us and the same server with an ok attitude was helping them as well. Due to the one server doing everything I don’t blame him for not having a great attitude and lack of service. The menu is way too big and has A LOT of unnecessary stuff on there. This place is going downhill fast. This was the place I chose to have my birthday brunch because of the last good experience I had but this time around I was embarrassed.

First time there and they brought me horrible pork chops, dry jerky like chops. But everyone else food looked good and they seemed to enjoy their plates. If I come back ill try the fish and chips or maybe that Philly cheese stake

Nice place to come and let loose. Come get drunk with a friend or coworker and shoot the shit. I only gave them 4 stars in food because I ordered the pork chops meal but instead they brought me jerky chops. The meat was so thin and dry and tough. The worst pork chops I ever had by far. Be everyone else that ordered seem to like their food. I think it was just mines. If I come back I will try the fish and chips.y wife and grandmother loves their pasta plates.

It's not bad at all, seems like some locals are just trying to push new eateries out for the sake of keep redondo stuck in the 80s/90s. Overall everything was good, price range was 80 bucks for 2. 2 plates, 2 sides, coffees. I will say the ratio is a little off. You get a lot of home fries/potatoes that take up half the plate but an omelet that was 1/3 the size of the potatoes portions. The sides also. Brussel sprouts. They give you a LOT. I get that it's shareable but it could easily feed 5. Lobster Mac also could feed 4. I think they should tweak the portion sizes and pricing THEN this place will stay busy. Restaurants thrive on word of mouth. Also. Look into getting one of those food influencers in there ASAP.

The hype for this restaurant was so far off the actual experience. We decided to try breakfast cause how can you screw up bkfst. Well they found a way. Eggs were overdone and home fry’s had too much oregano seasoning that permeated everything. Our waitress was just ok but had to hunt her down to get check. There were only 3 tables of people in the outside area. Outside of the patio the place looks like a commercial cafeteria. Very depressing. Would be surprised if they last mot than another 12 months. Go to Good Stuff just down the street!

THE BEST! I cannot tell you how hard it is to find eggs Benedict that deliver perfectly cooked, but not overdone poached eggs. If you’re looking for the best in presentation, care, and the quality of the food, you have come to the right place! Marina is the manager and was so happy to hear when I called to compliment the chefs. Every time I order from Serendipity they go above and beyond. Yes, I can be frustrating with changing up orders or adding items/sauces that don’t belong, but they checked all my boxes and the presentation was perfect. I always love my hollandaise sauce on the side and they gave me two different versions to choose from. I also asked for salsa on the side (which is not in the description for the meal) but they did not forget to follow the notes. We also ordered the 4 stack of the most fluffy picture perfect pancakes that taste even better than you can imagine. 5 stars all the way for service, quality of food, presentation, and following detailed notes. Everything on the menu is fantastic.

Kind of feels like a hotel’s dining room. Not much personality
 and I can say the same for the food. It had decent presentation and OK portions (except the scramble barely felt like 2 eggs), but it’s just completely lacking in flavor and originality. It’s almost as if they’re afraid to use salt and spices? The breakfast burritos literally tasted like nothing. The brisket was cooked well but had no flavor
 which was all just a shame because it looked good on the plate. A bit steep too. Average price is between $18 and $24 for bland food. $8 for fresh OJ. Service was “meh”. Unfortunately it’s just very unmemorable. We won’t be coming back.
