Absolute treat of a place! My friend and I saw outside for brunch and the setting was fantastic. There were outdoor heaters too. We ordered the mushroom truffle mouse, lobster deviled eggs, niman ranch burger, and the chicken katsu sando. Everything was soooo delicious! The service was really good and we felt very welcome.

Super kind staff, very accommodating for our table choice. Food was excellent! I had the avocado toast with egg & one of the best chai lattes there. Highly recommend! Beautiful indoor & outdoor seating, as well.

Our service was terrible, unfortunately. Our server took a long time to bring our drinks, then forgot to bring our wine with our entrees all together. She did not write down our order and clearly could have benefited from note taking. We also had to flag her down for our check. She was seating down chatting with the bartender.

Had brunch with friends one day and returned the next day with my husband since the food was delicious and creative, the ambiance had a casual upscale feel (inside and out), the staff friendly and professional. Ati ( spelling ?) was delightful and attentive. I had avocado toast with tempeh the first day and the second day we had pork hash browns, lobster deviled eggs, Brussels sprout hash, and mocktails. I really wanted to add a pastry but was really quite full after the meal. A lovely way to send a Sunday brunch.

Beautiful setting. Went for brunch on a Sunday. Moderately busy morning crazy. Delicious food and good coffee. Very accommodating of dietary restrictions such as gluten and dairy. Service was also quick and attentive while not being too pushy. Great experience overall. A tad bit expensive but that’s expected in Los Gatos

Horrible service. I’ve been there three times now and there is clearly very little training with the wait staff. Really? You have to ask me if I’m going to tip you?
