Home/made Kitchen Café Bakery - Moraga

Good food. we sit outside and bring our two big dogs (there were some dogs). friendly staff.

We have dined here for breakfast and lunch and had a very good experience each time. The dinner experience was substantially below. The wait time for food was ridiculous and the salad entree were nothing special for the price. The entree was not warm and not very good. The dessert was fine. It was a very disappointing experience. Given the hour wait between salad and entree, it would have been nice to be comped for the wine. The server was trying her best, but there seemed to be lots of confusion in the kitchen.

The meal, as usual, was delicious. Everything cooked to perfection. Absolutely wonderful. I must say, however, that the restaurant just isn't firing on all cylinders yet, and I hope it gets its act together before it goes down in flames. The service was terrible. We were there a full hour, and the only thing we had been served was our salad. When I asked for more bread, we were told they were running out of bread. The server took my plate because I was through with my meal, and asked my wife and I if we'd like our dessert served at the same time. My wife was still working on the last of her dinner when the dessert was brought out with no forks and he started taking away my wife's plate while she's still eating from it! Didn't ask if she was through. He just started clearing her plate! When she did finish and we were ready to start our dessert, I got up and grabbed a couple of forks myself, because Lord knows how long we'd have waited for our server to bring them. And the final straw when he brought our check after ringing us up, he left the clipboard on the table without a pen to sign with. It was just unbelievable! This occasion was the worst, by far, but poor service seems to be a constant at this restaurant, at least at dinner. We have had much better experience at breakfast or lunch, but the dinner service leaves much to be desired. We can't help but think that the chef/owner is focusing so much on the details of the meal which has always been stellar that other important details, like the service, fall forgotten by the wayside. And that's sad, because we'd really like to see this place be a success! But, for my wife and I, that is probably the last dinner we will eat here.

Really good food......really terrible service! Our waiter had NO idea how to take a beverage order........it took him three attempts to correctly serve our drinks with a full 35 minutes of wait time, even after going inside and complaining after 20minutes waiting for service. Please get some waitstaff with some amount of previous experience........it really detracted from an otherwise pleasant evening ;

The dinner was almost $150 for chicken, zucchini, small salad, and a half peach. Very disappointed in the service and extraordinarily overwhelmed with the bill. Last dinner with two of my daughters before one went off to CAL. So expensive. Shocked. Expected more.
