Enjoyable every time! The servers are exceptionally pleasant. Food is very good ( did the menu get smaller?) will be back again
Our favorite spot for brunch for a special occasion. The pancakes and French toast were so good. The breakfast burger works well with the sausage, beef patty and egg in one brioche sandwich.
My sister and I had been trying to get a reservation here for months—it's that popular. I finally managed to secure a table by booking a month and a half in advance. Safe to say, expectations were high. We ordered a variety of dishes: the mini brioche French toast, lemon ricotta pancakes, shakshouka, smoked salmon Benedict, and the ranchero scramble. Honestly, everything was excellent. The standout for me was the shakshouka and the smoked salmon Benedict—both flavorful and well-balanced. The lemon ricotta pancakes were light and fluffy, definitely a favorite. The French toast, while visually appealing, was a bit too hard for our taste—we prefer it softer. Ambiance-wise, the spot is beautiful and inviting, with a clean, modern vibe that makes it perfect for brunch with friends or a casual celebration. Service was decent given how packed the place was. They do have a strict 2-hour seating limit and were quick to enforce it, which makes sense considering how fully booked they stay. Was it worth the month-and-a-half wait? For the experience, sure. But I wouldn't go through that long of a wait again. Still, a great brunch spot and worth visiting at least once—just plan ahead.
From the greeter to the servers to the food and drinks, everything was amazing. The food came out quickly and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. We were met with a smile from anyone with whom we came in contact. We always look forward to our visits at Willow and Whisk!
I had a brunch reserved for two months. I couldn't wait for 40+ minutes for brunch. I know I would get hangry. The food, service, and ambiance are all good; there is nothing to complain about. I would love to come back, but I'm not sure if I would. I understand why they are always busy. But is it worth the two-month wait with a reservation or the 30-90-minute wait as a walk-in? Do they have a virtual waitlist?
Ok so where do i get started? Came here with my cousin and sister after my cousin had recommended dining here for breakfast since she’s visited once. We walked into the restaurant and saw it was very busy for a Thursday morning which was very interesting. My first reaction to the atmosphere was wow I was in awe. It’s such a beautiful place to eat in. I love the trees that they have in two different spots. We were told there would be about a 30-45 minute wait but would go by rather quickly because most tables were closing out their tabs. After about 20 minutes or so we got texted to come in. We got seated at our table, only down fall they’re not quick enough to get the tableware set up for the next people to be seated. So as we sat one of the workers came and placed our place mats and napkins and utensils. Not a huge deal but just kinda eh for me I’d like my stuff to be all setup when I’m seated. Our server came immediately to our table gave us our menus. They have a great selection of foods to choose from a little challenging when there’s great options. After a few minutes our server came back took our drink order and even our food order because we already knew what we wanted. I ordered a Ghirardelli hot chocolate with Nutella $4 for this not bad. My main was avocado toast with a poached egg and side of breakfast potatoes. Also shared the blueberry lemon poppers I believe was the name. Super yummy and loved the lemon cured to dip into. All the food came out fairly quick which I definitely can’t complain about. So the only thing that was horrible tasting and I ended up throwing the money in the garbage and wasted was the hot chocolate. I had to get it twice first time was barely lukewarm and wasn’t good tasting and second time was a little bit warmer but still tasted horrible. Added sugar no help sadly. I definitely enjoyed my avocado toast it was really good but wished they had larger eggs and not tiny petite ones. The breakfast potatoes were good tasting but a little too small and burnt for my liking. That should be fixed because i really didn’t enjoy it like I wanted to. I tried my cousins mini brioche French toast basically little bites and those were so delicious especially with a strawberry. I definitely would go back again to try more food and I surely recommend people to come grab a bite.

I have been seeing people rave about this place for a while so my husband and I finally decided to give it a try this morning and OMG..amazing!! Everything we ordered was perfect. I’m also not a breakfast person at all, I haven’t even eaten breakfast since August, but I cleared my plate!! We will definitely be back!

It’s sad to see such a beautiful spot wasted. I’d go to The Standard way before I have a meal here that I can find at cracker barrel

Pros: has a nice ambiance, the food is tasty and comes quickly
Cons: food is overpriced for the portions, unimpressive service
The receptionist was unfriendly, and we felt rushed once seated. This isn’t a great spot for a relaxed brunch, especially on a busy Sunday. I understand needing to turn tables, but it came at the cost of a pleasant dining experience. Our visit lasted about 30 minutes and felt unwelcoming overall.
Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free and dairy free options. Gluten free bread is available, although it’s not on the menu.

We have had a few private events there and each one of them were absolutely perfect! Connie and her crew really go above and beyond! I was so sick at my son’s baptism party and they packed everything up for me. When I got home they included a bag that said feel better and it was a bunch of tea bags!! That was so incredibly sweet of them. Willow and whisk always go that extra mile to make sure everyone is happy. Thank you so much for another outstanding event!!
