Reviews for Bloom in Santa Clara, CA
This will be my go to place for brunch in the Bay Area. We were seating at the bar. Enjoyed everything at this store. The food... was awesome. First time having fried chicken with waffle and I?m so glad that I tried it. My girlfriend who prefers salty foodfor breakfast loved it. I?m more on the sweet side and the croissant toast was great. The drinks were great. The house lemonadewas sweetened just about nice. The coffee went really well with the croissants toast. The bartender who took our order wascaring and efficient. It was a pleasure watching him making cocktails while having the meal. Got nothing to complain about thisplace so highly recommended! Read more
Long waiting line on Saturday morning. Big portion for the price. Chicken waffle presentation is great, average taste. Still a... great place to meet friends and enjoy nice settings. Great service. Read more
The place is chic and the food is of good quality, but is it worth one and half hour wait? I don't think so. They do not have an... online reservation system or something like a Yelp wait-list. We have to physically go there to put down our name and then wait.The Starbucks next door has their business booming with people waiting for their message to go into bloom. Even after waitingpatiently for so long, we didn't get inside seating and we're seated in the patio! Coming to the food itself, we got theirfamous chicken & waffles, croissant french toast & fresh squeezed orange juice. The portions were huge, the plates looked prettyand everything tasted good. But, keep in mind the bill was on the expensive side! Read more
This has been on my list for a long time. This restaurant doesn't take reservations and I read in reviews that the wait could be... really long on the weekend, I didn't want to take the chance to drive all the way to Santa Clara and not be able to dinehere. I finally get to get brunch here on a Friday when I didn't have to work. Even on a Friday, it was pretty packed close tonoon and some customers had to wait. I came here with a friend and we ordered their popular dishes - Chicken and Waffle,Buttermilk Pancakes and a side of house salad to feel healthy. The chicken and waffle was my favorite, I typically love to mixsweet and savory and this dish was able to hit the spot. The waffle was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the friedchicken was perfectly crispy and had the right amount of seasoning. The maple syrup was just a cherry on top for this dish. Thebuttermilk pancake is definitely on the sweeter side, so the tartness from the berries pair well with the sweetness. Housesalad and coffee was just ok, nothing extraordinary. Overall, I had a good experience here but I do hope they open up forreservations in the future! Read more
Really delicious food and hefty portions, no wonder the place was packed when we arrived! The steak and eggs was phenomenal made... to a medium rare (can be made rarer or more well done upon request), the croissant French toast was delectable and super sweet,the chicken and waffles was delicious (and that says a lot, because it's pretty hard to mess up on chicken and Bloom definitelydid not mess up!) 10/10 would come back again!

A friend suggested this brunch place and I got to recently visit it for a brunch date! They do not take reservations and usually... on the weekends they?re completely packed so getting there early is a better option. My favorites were tthe croissant Frenchtoast and the pancakes. The food, vibe and my overall experience was amazing !! I would definitely go back to try more items! Iwould highly recommend this one!! Read more
Love the food here! My favorite is definitely the chicken and waffles. My friend and I get it every time we come here. There's... just something about the slightly spicy-sweet sauce they put on it. I've tried most of their menu and enjoyed it all. Otherdishes I'd consistently order would probably be the pancakes, potatoes, and croissant. I also like their freshly squeezed orangejuice. Read more
This brunch place was packed! There was a long line at 10:30 am on a Saturday. We put in our names and waited for 30 min which... is not bad. I wished more restaurants would have a virtual queue so you would just drive there to be seated instead of drivingto wait in a line. The food is super good and the service was nice. It is a very cute place and the meals are instagram worthyfor sure. I appreciate places with good brewed coffee and this one certainly had a great coffee offering. Read more
