What People Are Saying About Alameda Cafe

In Short
Airy and mellow, the French-influenced atmosphere here includes linen tablecloths and napkins and brown butcher paper (with crayons) covering the tables. The traditional Power Breakfast of eggs, meat, potatoes and toast is tasty. The French toast consists of French bread dipped in egg and corn flakes and deep-fried. The dinner menu mixes it up between Southwestern, French and a few places in between. Entrees include salmon quesadillas and black tiger prawns in orange curry sauce.

This little neighborhood gem has been around for many years. We have married, raised our children and moved two times and we still continue to support this great cafe. The food and service have especially improved over the past several months. We absolutely love the breakfast they offer daily and are really happy to find out that their original meatloaf has returned to the dinner menu. If you are seeking a clean and pleasant atmosphere with decent prices and delicious food then go to the Alameda!

Don't be lured in by the fact that you can get a table here with very little wait. There's a good reason for that- this was one of the worst breakfasts I have ever had. This place has never been my favorite, but it has gotten unbearable. The signature James Beard french toast tasted like it was either made for another party two hours ago and sat under a heat lamp, or used three day old bread. It was nearly impossible to chew. Bacon and eggs were ridiculously greasy, as though they had some extra canola oil poured on after cooking. Even my son's waffle was stale and icky. When a 4 year old chooses not to finish a waffle drowned in syrup, you have a problem. Coffee was subpar, service was slow and not very friendly. Never, EVER going back, no matter how long the wait is at any other breakfast place in town.

The Alameda Cafe is one of my favorite places for lunch. The Alameda burger is just right for me, tasty and fresh. The coffee and desert is also great, the blackberry cobbler is to die for. What a nice clean and cheerful place for a nice lunch. Give them a try for breakfast also.
