Fantastic place for breakfast. Great neighborhood find.My wife & I had breakfast here on Sunday after about a 2 year absence. Fresh coffee (and hot) while you wait for your table.Omelets are all excellent, Eggs Benedict is great. All served with home style potatoes. The service is so good. Everyone is very friendly, cheerful & helpful. I feel good just being around these people. It won't be 2 years before we visit NIni's again. Best breakfast in San Mateo.

Service was excellent serious looking staff except for the smiling order taker/cashierbut all efficient & quicke service, quick clean table after each customer leaves. Food were great..love what I had, hubby & I were content, were full but light on the belly. The place is crowded on breakfast and lunch. Parking spot is gold...you have to go between 1:30pm-2pm to beat the crowd & soon to close. The place is funky & interesting each wall has its eclectic wall decor its a combo of anything goes....

We have eaten at Copenhagen for years and they maintain a high quality of food and service. Breakfast lunch and dinner are all solid bets for a fair priced meal. Dinner sees another experience that is fun. Always a winner. Chinese chicken salad is a huge favorite at lunch time. Well worth a visit.

I find this place very well maintained, clean and happy:) Greeted by the cashier, very friendly Italian guy, took my order and delivered it. Pretty tasty salmon panino. Perhaps one of the best cappuccinos I have had in a long time in California.Open kitchen but not noisy, this place is full of locals from business talk to retired fans! I can see why:) there are lots to discover about Italian cities by reading magazines... very quiet place to have a nice chat too.Tasty croissants, no pancakes or waffles.I am impressed that the character this place has is not fake like other places.
