I depend on Whole Foods for our families special dietary needs but I am also happy to shop here because of the staff who is always friendly and always happy to stop what they are doing to answer your question, show you where an item is. They are generally knowledgeable about the area they work in. I've read about poor experiences at some WF but this one is top notch.

I agree with the others--great place for a pre-farmer's market breakfast! The sandwiches and salads are wonderful--ripe delicious tomatoes, good quality breads and sandwich rolls and the fries have a good crisp to them. We also get take-out here, which is handled efficiently. My only criticism is that the "cheesy bread"seems a misnomer. I expected gooey, melted cheese and instead the topping was a very very rich and intense salty, pureed garlic mixed with an herb and perhaps sour cream? It tasted like something one would use to top escargot or pesto for pasta, which is fine but the description on the menu should say "garlic spread" or something more accurate to the character of the dish. Everything else I have had here--pastas, seafood, etc. have been high quality and delicious...

Most of the offerings on the menu are not Korean, but those that are are very tasty. Service can be very slow, as it seems daughter and mother do most of the preparation. It is a small restaurant. I go for the Korean options including some unique combos like Bulgogi Burrito!! Never had breakfast there, but others say it is very good.

Met up with some friends while visiting Redwood City. It's a nice place, nothing special, but nothing bad either. You get the usual numerous choices for breakfast and lunch options. Probably because it's the Silicon Valley where everything is expensive (especially housing), I guess it's to be expected that the prices here are a bit higher than average, altho not ridiculously so.

5. Talk of Broadway
Reviewed By carol22b
Reminds me of diners from the '60s with small tables, formica counter, never-empty coffee. Traditional breakfast & lunch menu with a stack of local newspapers by the cash register. Good breakfast spot. Everything from cereal to Eggs Benedict. Sidewalk seating is nice on warm days.
4. Oracle Cafe 300

Be it the Italian Pizza or Mediterranean delicacies or Salads or Deserts or Cookies or simply a good coffee - this is the place to go. Found the variety to be absolutely sufficient - meeting the needs of both Vegetarians and Non-Vegetarians. Must visit place if you are on a business trip to Oracle, Redwood City

Today was my 4th and final attempt with Cafe Borrone. Every time I go, I order a 16oz vanilla latte. I get something different every time, either the wrong size or flavor. Today, the barista made my drink iced instead of hot, then remade it in the wrong size. The lines are insane, the staff is snippy when informed of mistakes, and the quality is good enough to go back.

This is a lovely victorian house converted into a cafe in downtown Redwood City. You can sit in one of four rooms in the house, with the tables nicely spaced (not too crowded), the service is good, but the real treat for having breakfast here are the remarkable Swedish Pancakes, made with oatmeal. Don't miss them.

This place was just what I was looking for! The food was fantastic, and the service was great! I ordered the Huevos Racheros, and could not have been happier! Also, some of our party is gluten free, and I donât think I have ever had such a fantastic gluten free waffle in my life.
