Grand Lake Kitchen - Lake Merritt

Sourdough French Toast? I was very skeptical but gosh it lived up to it's reputation! It had right amount of sweetness and was chewy (I was expecting it to be hard) Pork polenta was creamy and delicious. Could have had more pork on it though. The cocktails were all great! We had white linen, cypress and Bellini. Recommend all of them! They had Nosh donuts, which I didn't get to try this time, but on my list for next time. Service was good. We had asked for scrambled instead of poached eggs but ended up with poached anyway. We were hungry by the time it came so didn't bother sending it back.

Very good food. Would be nice if the sandwiches included a side

The host also filled in as our server today (seemed like someone likely called in sick), and they were absolutely phenomenal. On top of everything from seating us immediately, taking our orders quickly, and even got us a comfortable chair for our tiny dog. The heaters outside kept us all warm, the food was delicious, and the portions were huge. Very happy with this visit and we'll be back!

Update: Stopped by for Sunday brunch. Had a 20-30 minute wait. Savory french toast was a pleasant surprise. White peach bellini was refreshing. Food came out decently quick. Falafel was a bit try. Burrata was a bit too salty. Service was great. Drinks were strong.
