Friends With Benedicts Mimosa House

Kira Haynes

Brought my mom for an early Mother's Day brunch. Wait was reasonable (10min), although I know this place CAN get busy! The staff was pleasant and quick to clear our plates as we finished them, without making us feel rushed. The food was beautifully plated and tasted even better! Love this place and recommend to anyone who just wants a good brunch place! *We ordered Banana Bomb Waffles and a pancake combo upgraded to Strawberry Shortcake pancakes.

This was a fantastic place. It was the place my wife chose for my birthday and we loved everything about it. The food, the drinks, the service. Everything was perfect. Will definitely come back soon. The food, everything we ordered was delicious. The presentation was everything, and you can tell they took their time. The drinks were super creative and soooo good.

Friends With Benedicts, Folsom. Good food, good service. We will be back again to try more menu selections!

Food and service was exceptional. Enjoyed a variety of choices from the menu. Atmosphere was perfect for a Sunday morning. Music was a good volume and didn’t overpower conversation.

So many mimosas. Really good food, quality and portions were great. Friendly staff, great atmosphere. Ordered the sailors benedict came with shrimp salmon and capers. The leprechaun mimosa and root beer float mimosas were a treat. Easily over 60 flavors of mimosa. An all round great time.

This is one of my all time favorite places to eat!! The food is ALWAYS delicious and the service is great. The only down side is they get super busy so wait times can be long. Still highly recommend to everyone I know and its my first choice for brunch whenever I get to chose!

Everything about this place was great the food was delicious and well-prepared, and the atmosphere was calm and inviting. Service was smooth and friendly the whole time. Lilo made the experience even better with her warm personality and attention to detail. You can tell the staff really care about what they do here. I’d definitely come back.

Food was great. Mimosas were wonderful. I also had a london fog. Excellent. The acoustics make the place a little loud, but not surprising with how busy they were. Been there several times we'll be going back.

It’s been a while since I last wrote a restaurant review! I have quite a few coming up, but I wanted to start with this place,Friends with Benedicts 🤗 I’ve been wanting to try it ever since I saw the name 😂 I finally visited during my birthday weekend. I ordered the Sailor’s benedict, my hub had the Irish egg benedict, and we shared the Crunchy french toast. All three dishes were delicious. The Crunchy french toast, especially, was one of the best I’ve ever had! The only downside was that my hub found a small piece of eggshell in his benedict. Aside from that, the service was friendly, though it didn’t feel quite as satisfying as I expected. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’m glad I finally got to try this place 👍 I’d definitely love to come back and try more items from the menu! They have a wide selection, and everything looked great 😋

Restaurant was great, service was fast and friendly, and a very nice menu to choose from. The only downside side was the service may have been a little too fast. The eggs on both of our benedicts had runny whites so they could have been cooked just a little longer, and the French toast was a bit soggy and wet. Again just needed a little bit longer cook time. Aside from that it was a wonderful breakfast and we will be coming back for sure.

Our server Olivea was fantastic. She recommended the favorable items on the menu, the omelets were outstanding, and we plan on dining there again.

Came here for brunch and really enjoyed the food. Had the Florentine Benedict (egg white only), bacon waffle and the Diablo Skillet. All the food was fresh and very flavorful. Large selection of mimosas offered. Service was quick once seated and our waitress was kind and attentive. This place is quite crowded on a regular basis. Wish they allowed reservations— walk-in only and expect anywhere from 45m-hour wait.

Craving for an egg benedict near Folsom and I found this restaurant. We went there for a breakfast around 9:30am. The restaurant was almost full but we were seated right away. We ordered florentine benedict, chicken & waffle benedict, and one stack of strawberry shortcake pancake for my kid. The service was pretty fast - we got our food withtin 15 minutes of ordering. The florentine benedict was good. The hollandaise sauce was decent and I wish the canadian bacon was a bit thicker. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly with runny yolks. However, the hash brown was crispy but it was very bland - no seasoning at all. The chicken and waffle benedict was good too. The waffles were fluffy and delicious! The gravy & fried steaks were yummy! And again the poached eggs were perfect but the hash brown was very bland. The strawberry shortcake pancake was the star! The pancake was fluffy and DELICIOUS! I could taste the buttermilk in the pancake. My kid only put a small amount of syrup on the pancake and he finished it in no time. Overall, the food was good and I'll definitely be back again to try different menu. As we left the restaurant (around 10:30ish), it became more crowded, so if you want to avoid line up, go there in the morning. They also has a bar and I'll try their mimosa the next time I go there because it looked so good! The restaurant is located in Palladio shopping center. There is a parking lot right behind the restaurant.

The food was great, but it took them about an hour to bring it out. We also had to wait for 30 minutes to be seated, even though there were a few available tables. They might have been short-staffed. The interior is very rectangular and boring, with tables lined up straight, one after another. The acoustics of the room are flawed in a way that makes it difficult to hear what the person across the table is saying. I will not go back to this place again.

First time here for brunch date. The food was okay. I got the taco sampler. The chorizo taco was absolutely delicious. I wish I would have got all three tacos with that choice of meat. Pancakes were 5/5. Drinks were 5/5. A lot to choose from. Overall, I enjoyed myself.

I gave this restaurant a second chance, amazing food, amazing menu and creative recipes. Great clean location. Service quality is none existing. It takes forever to get your order in specially if you're seated in the patio. I personally witnessed customers get up and leave due to negligence from the servers. I had 5 different workers visit my table, so they are well staffed. However very unorganized. Food to die for service to chance you away.

The food was good, but the service felt rushed. About 20 minutes after our food arrived, the waiter brought the bill and asked if we were done and if everything should be packed to go. We were still eating, and it really spoiled the experience.

Only gave 2 stars for the vibes. For a foodie, the benedict was the worst benedict I’ve ever had in my life. The bagel and smoked salmon ratio was off. Smoked salmon was NOT smoked, the taste was there but the texture was not. Hollandaise sauce was bland and tried to hide the bland food under. Daddy’s omelette was very dry. They put a slice of Kraft singles on top and it didn’t even melt, wish it was shredded cheese for the amount they charged. White mocha was good. Each dish was about $20. Total came out to be around $55.

Look elsewhere on your way to Tahoe I don’t usually write negative reviews, but I want to warn others traveling through the area. ​Don't let the cool name and location fool you. We stopped here for a quick brunch and left feeling ripped off. The seafood in the Sailor's Benedict ($22+) was poorly prepared; the shrimp were not deveined—every single one had a thick black vein—and the crab was served cold and only on one half of the meal. Everything was buried under a thick hollandaise, which felt like an attempt to hide the lack of quality. ​The most upsetting part, however, was the service. I ordered a "London Fog Espresso," but it tasted like plain milk tea. My husband, who hates coffee, tasted it and confirmed there was no espresso in it at all. When I mentioned this to the server, she offered to bring a shot of espresso to add to the drink. I assumed they were fixing their mistake, but when the check came, they had charged us for the shot and refused to remove it. ​The management's attitude was the real dealbreaker. It’s a shame when a business chooses a few dollars over basic customer service and admitting a mistake. Plenty of other places to stop on this route—skip this one.

Honestly not worth the money. Spouse ordered chicken and waffles and he got two small tenders with the waffle. The pancakes were also just okay. The fajita omelette was decent. The mimosas were $8 and decent as well. All in all, won’t go back.
