Popular brunch spot with a big waitlist? but never takes too long to get a seat! Everything absolutely hit the spot. Coffee... that packs a punch, impeccably cooked potatoes, eggs cooked precisely to the T?. everything was so good. Definitely worth thewait and a brunch highlight in town! Read more

[Note that you do gotta add salt to your own dishes] This place is really hip and does their textures perfectly. It?s gonna be... one of the softest and fluffiest eggs you?d ever taste, and the crispiest potatoes and slightly charred english muffins.Everything tastes so healthy and is just the right portion for a big eater like me. The coffee and fruits were okay. Read more

Cute brunch cafe with friendly staff. Pretty annoying that you can?t make a reservation and they are intense about your whole... party being there on time, which is understandable. But for the long wait, the brunch didn?t exceed expectations. Pretty goodavocado toast and French toast - but nothing you haven?t had before at a trendy brunch cafe Read more

5 stars for the professionalism. My comments represent 3 orders from 3 people. I ordered a side of potatoes and at the bottom... of the bowl, after having eaten some, I saw pieces of bacon. I am vegetarian, and mentioned it to the server and they discussedwith their manager and they apologized, took off the potatoes and our drinks. That was a nice gesture and I appreciate that.They also accommodated our dairy-sensitive person as well which was nice. So 5 stars on management and service. Now the foodand drinks: I had an iced latte with oat milk and I liked it. I wish it was a bit larger. The bloody mary was spicy. So ondrinks maybe 4 stars. The Swedish pancake was great. The French toast could improve. Somehow the flavor was too strong andlemony and the edges of the toasts were a bit hard (in my opinion). The eggs Benedict was okay as well but not the best. Thefood gets 4 stars as well. Overall, a chill and nice atmosphere for a Monday brunch, if you are visiting, and nice staff. Imay come back but will be mindful while ordering and will ask more questions to confirm my dietary restrictions aremet. Overall, recommended. Read more

I was pretty impressed with the Wooden Spoon. Upon entering, I was greeted by a friendly staff member who kindly checked my... vaccination card and helped me get seated. The food is exceptional and reasonably-priced. The reason I am giving it 4 instead of5 stars is that the service was a little poor. The servers were not friendly (did not even offer a greeting) and only came byONCE after taking my order. I ordered drip coffee (which was rather expensive), and they only came by one time to refill mycoffee, which was LONG past due. The kitchen staff is really impressive, however, providing delicious food with excellentpresentation in a timely manner. I will be back to the Wooden Spoon to try out more of their dishes?and hoping that the servicewill be better next time. Read more

Had the big spoon, huevos divorciados, biscuit & gravy, banana & pecan pancakes, and the house hash. The side of potatoes was... nice & crispy. Everything was delicious and had generous portion sizes. The free flow coffee refills was much appreciated by thegroup considering our 4 am start to the day. We were well taken care of. Almost zero wait time when we got there around 8 am.Enjoyed the cute Christmas themed spoon decor. Read more

This place is so good! Came here for brunch and everything we got was amazing. We waited for about 30 minutes which wasn't too... bad on a Sunday morning. But it was worth the wait. The drip coffee was good, but definitely get the mocha, it's perfect. I hadthe "Big Spoon," which is basically everything you would want in a breakfast. Eggs were great, bacon was delicious, biscuit andpancakes were amazing. The potatoes were so crispy and delicious. Highly recommended it. Staff was friendly and love thatthere's an open kitchen with seating right in front of it. If you are in town definitely check this place out. Read more

I love a good breakfast and this place certainly filled my love of that meal. The food here is both plentiful and delicious.... Most surprised by the amazing greens they have, the arugula side for my eggs benedict were superb. The crepes were light andperfectly cooked with or without the jams. I got green tea and it was very good. Staff was friendly and we felt very well tendedto despite how busy it was. Read more
