Crepevine Restaurants

Good solid place to grab a brunch/lunch etc... Located right on University the parking will be on the street or around the corner in the lot. We came in on a sunny Saturday for brunch. You get your menu at the door, and order at the counter, where they will give you a number stand and you go find your table. We wanted to sit outside at the permanent parklet space, and asked as we came up to the door. The sweet gal told us, 'go place your order, I will hold this table for you'... Love that. She knew we don't dine indoors...I like that if you already know what you want to order, you don't necessarily need to stand and wait behind the others perusing the menu to make a decision.
We got our table and the food came out quickly. Both ordered the Cost del Sol benedict. Meals were good for both of us. The Costa del Sol is a little different as they cube the ham instead of a slice, and it is sautéed with, spinach and onions under the poached eggs on an english muffin with hollandaise sauce. Very good. The service was stellar and with a smile from all the staff.

I was half expecting it to be super busy at 11 AM but we walked in and there were a lot of open tables.

You order at the counter are helped by staff to find a table and then a server delivers your food.

Overall the great crepevine standard is here! So much variety you're bound to find a dish for everyone. Brunch and lunch are the best here.

Firstly, thanks to this place for being open on Thanksgiving! There were few other restaurants on the street that were open as well but we decided to go here for brunch.
We thought it was a sit down restaurant, well it is but we had to place an order at the front only then were given a table. It felt rushed cuz the line added up quickly behind us. Couldn't go through the menu properly.
I got the pasta with Salman! Guess it was a mistake ordering pasta when they're probably known for their crepes! I wasn't impressed by the food at all, would give it an average. The portion size is pretty big though. Overall ambiance and service was good.

We had to make a trip to Palo Alto so we decided to come to this place because we had heard about it. The menu is vast.... you have the opportunity to have both breakfast and lunch items and we choose to select from the breakfast menu. For the savory crêpe we ordered the Tuscany.... it's a chicken breast with mushrooms, tomatoes, roasted almonds, provolone, feta and pesto. For the sweet crêpe we ordered the Santorini which comes with walnuts, pistachios, brown sugar, coconut, cinnamon and mascarpone. While I do like crêpes could not resist the eggs Benedict part of the menu. My choice was the black stone which came with grilled red onions, tomatoes, avocado and of course poached eggs on an English muffin with hollandaise sauce. We ordered all the dishes with home potatoes which were grilled with oil, garlic and rosemary.

Both the crepes were well received. The Blackstone Benedict was a masterpiece the grilled onions and tomatoes were just perfect and the muffin, nice and soft. And the poached eggs, the crown jewel of the dish, had the right temperature, softness and runny yolk that melted in your mouth.

If there is a negative it is the way the food had to be ordered and paid for as you enter the establishment... this is uncomfortable on two fronts.... for one there are people behind you and you have to quickly run through the menu... secondly, you don't have the leisure to sit down and read the whole menu and it's vast offerings and then make your choice. After paying for the food, you sit at a table with the number they gave you till the server brings you the food. How about the service? It was swift, friendly and exceptional.

Food, DELICIOUS! Service is AMAZING! Had my sister's grad party here & they accompanied my 25 guests, saved a whole area for us when we got there and served us fast. Sweetest servers ever! People that I invited were 1st timers & they said they've been back twice since the party cause they loved it so much and wanted to try out different dishes. I will definitely be having parties here now!

Always good service, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Fresh and delicious food, big portions.

The food is tasty and meets diverse appetite needs - I got items that were vegetarian and weight watchers friendly, and my family got things that were a bit more on the bountiful side.

It's a chain with reliable menus, quality, and huge portions of predominately American food. You can spend as much or as little as you desire, so that's nice. Prices are reasonable for the products.
Service: accurate, quick, and friendly.
Ambiance: it's a chain, they're all the same; tables, booths, the usual.

Very happy I finally tried this place! Coworkers invited me to dine with them following our shift and I willingly obliged.

My only qualms with this place: parking is street parking only. We came a little before they opened so parking was available but I could only imagine during peak hours or weekend brunch time how chaotic it would be to find parking. Also customer service was lacking. We were a large party about 7 total. I noticed the waitress who took our order seemed overwhelmed when we asked for napkins and water after she brought out everyone's food and drink orders that we placed at the register.

In case you didn't know you order at the counter, also tip in advance then they bring your order out to you.

There was a guy who helped us with bringing the shade down but when my coworker asked later for him to bring an additional chair so we could store our food we ordered to go there (since there was no room on the table) he just shook his head no and walked away. My coworker ended up getting up and snagging a chair from the nearby table.

I ordered the Philly cheesesteak crepe which was so good. It is huge. I loved the flavor and the gravy and the cheese. All perfect balance. I would order this again. Even the salad it came with had a nice sauce on it and I'm not a salad person. Next time i will go for the French fries. Not too potatoe-y or wedge cut which I dislike. My skillet potatoes weren't made crunchy enough like I like.

I also ordered the safari sunrise I think the drink is called. I didn't see it on their menu but knew about this drink from Yelp. It's an orange, ginger and carrot drink. Very good. Non-alcoholic and the carrot wasn't overpowering at all. I am looking forward to ordering this one again.

I ordered the shrimp Alfredo to go which was surprisingly good! I say surprisingly because it's a breakfast crepe and sandwich shop. Didn't even know they also served burgers and pastas. But the flavor was there in that Alfredo. So much so when I got home and took a forkful I couldn't stop "trying" it if I wanted. Ended up eating half the plate but had to stop because I was stuffed. They give you about 8-9 medium shrimp. At first I thought it was less but realized some were buried in the pasta. I would also order this again!

I love this location normally because the service is friendly. But this time it was dirty -- the banquette was covered in greasy crumbs, and there were French fries all over the floor.
My tuna melt was burnt on thee bottom and undercooked on top!! Yikes!
If you eat here, be prepared to send stuff back with no shame. I regret that I got too shy to send it back.
