What Drea Michelle dislikes about 900 Grayson:
I really dislike having to write this, and I'm hoping this isn't a common issue. I was so shocked that I didn't even think to take a picture. I immediately informed the person who served me that there was a spider at the top of my drink! Fortunately, I hadn't taken a sip yet. View all feedback.

Don't let the unassuming shop front fool you into thinking this place is anything short of extraordinary. Fresh ingredients, thoughtful and creative recipes build on strong foundations. What a gem! Soups scream quality, the broccoli and cheese is one of the best I've had. Hard to go wrong here!
Something changed, the first time I went here it was amazing and I told everyone I know to go! Went a few week ago and it was nothing to write home about. Corn beef hash potatoes were not cooked enough and tasted bland. Chick and waffles cold, chewy, breading not sticking to chicken and lack luster. Also we ordered and the food came out scary fast like everything is cooked and been sitting fast. Which checks out for the chicken. TBH won’t be coming back, realized how much I should have cherished the first time.
900 Grayson in Berkeley is a great breakfast lunch restaurant that attracts a loyal following of dedicated customers who are in love with their delicious menu items. While we were visiting from New York, we heard that we had to plan to at least come here for breakfast! We were very impressed with their service and our delicious breakfast!
Lovely and cozy breakfast/lunch joint with quick service, comforting food, and amazing atmosphere. The Demon lover is my go-to and is one of the most satisfying meals i have ever eaten.
I am doordasher but when I went to this place to pick up an order a guy threw me out from the a restaurant and told me they don't do doordash when I tried to talk to him he refused worst place ever. I'm a Doordasher, but when I went to this location to pick up an order, a guy kicked me out of the restaurant and told me they didn't do Doordash. When I tried to talk to him, he refused the worst place in the world.

Some of the best chickens and waggles I've ever had. super fresh and beautifully broken chicken, and the pancake was ready to take all syrup, spicy sauce (if this is their thing I highly recommend), and other flavors. very nicely mixed. the place itself is quite juicy and intimate. really enjoyed only a relaxing breakfast there. I would go back to oakland.
Located at 7th st and Grayson. Street parking only. The restaurant is small for indoor, but I see they have larger out door space at the back(not sure it belongs to them). There is not too many choices on the menu, I can 't say it is bad or good. Depends how you think about. But they can make themselves easier to make, shorten the wait time, better taste, etc. I would suggest if they can offer gluten free choices for the menus items. Maybe they have already? I didn 't ask about. If they do, they could charge more for that. I don 't see why not. LoL. Anyway, I ordered 7&Grayson , and breakfast . They taste good, the shape of the hash brown is kinda unique. Coffee smell strong. The service is great. Service make me feel like a tiny bit in a high end restaurant.
Hidden gem! Their chicken and waffles are amazing. Chicken is sooo good with the gravy. Make sure to order the maple syrup if you want a little sweetness on your waffles. Also I tired the hubby's hashbrowns and they were crispy and scrumptious. Definitely hit up this spot if you're in the area. So fresh and organic.
Good texture chicken for sure. Got the chicken and waffles and the chicken sandwich. Thought the Slaw could be more flavorful. I got the salad instead of fries and thought it was ok, but a good offset for the fried chicken. Couldn't even finish the portions were so big. Very attentive service. Cute spot also.

Those Hashbrowns! Delicious breakfast in an authentic, good food place. More than competent servers does not equate to arrogant servers as other reviews imply. They do their jobs well efficiently.
Demon Lover! Paillards and waffle! Gravy AND syrup! Amazing staff and service! Well-made, beautifully-plated meals!
Came to this place via Yelp. My husband had the Tom Boy I had the Savory Bread Pudding. Not a big mushroom fan but I've been trying to live out of my comfort zone these days. Incredibly Delicious were the words that come to mind as I write this. We will be back and bring friends. The staff was nice and welcoming along with being attentive without being overkill. Thank you for a very pleasant eating experience.
2 words. Demon. Lover. Parking is a pain you may have a wait but I promise, every single thing will be worth it. Service, food, you name it. One of my best memories of the Bay Area. If you're not patient, go before the lunch crowd be ready for it to get real busy! Cheers!

I gave 1 star because there's no 0!I love this place been coming for years.I got a to go order. But today I ordered the Demon lover chicken and waffles I always get this and it was terrible. The chicken was not totally fried it was more like soft stale leftover! worst of all the must have forgotten the spices on the breading of the chicken because it was flavorless!!! The chicken is usually fried and crunchy and the seasoning is amazing u can just pick up bits of fried breading and it's delicious but not today nothing crunchy and no flavor. Usually you can see the seasoning and tasted it. and the waffle was not cooked all the way. The syrup was watery and light colored. Usually it's better quality syrup. I payed around $18 for this. I would have gone back to ask them to make another one but this was my breakfast on my way to work so I didn't have time to go back and wait. I won't be coming back there's other places cheaper but I was willing to spend $18 for this because it's usually great but today it wasn't worth half of it. I felt like I got ripped off and disappointed because I was really looking forward to this meal all week.
Amazing food, I've eaten here many times and each time I am impressed. Best hang over food in the entire Bay Area 100%. Great staff and service is always helpful.
One of my go-to places whenever I am visiting Berkeley. The staff is super friendly and attentive. My favorite item on the menu is the Demon Lover. I recommend getting it with both the gravy and syrup.Food: 5/5

I love this spot! This place is super friendly, has great food and a lovely ambience. I ordered the demon lover (super yummy and large portions). My mom ordered the waffles and loved them. They are also ADA friendly and were super helpful in finding me a a great table and escorting me into the venue.

Some of the best chicken and waffles I?ve ever had. Super fresh and nicely battered chicken, and the pancake was ready to take in all the syrup, spicy sauce (if that?s your thing, which I highly recommend), and other seasonings. Mixed together very very nicely. The place itself is pretty quaint and intimate. Really enjoyed just having a relaxing breakfast there. Would absolutely go again when I go back to Oakland.
I went for lunch and realized it had been a while since my last visit. I should have returned sooner—it's better than ever! The food is excellent, the prices are reasonable, and the outdoor seating is lovely. The service is fantastic, too. What more could I ask for?
This review is long overdue. The food here, especially the chicken and waffles, is AMAZING. It's truly a hidden gem! The chicken paired with the spicy sauce is out of this world. It's so much better than any chicken and waffles we've had before—seriously, it might be the best we've ever tasted. The place itself is cute too. I highly recommend it!
The service was excellent! However, the breakfast (eggs, potatoes, and Fiji apple) didn't quite meet my expectations.
Good texture chicken for sure. Got the chicken and waffles and the chicken sandwich. Thought the Slaw could be more flavorful. I got the salad instead of fries and thought it was ok, but a good offset for the fried chicken. Couldn't even finish the portionswere so big. Very attentive service. Cute spot also.

The food at this restaurant is outstanding. The hours of operation are somewhat unusual, which makes it challenging to book a table. However, with a bit of careful planning and some patience, it's absolutely worth the effort.
Wait Time: Our meals were served in a timely manner, also receiving a rating of 4 out of 5. Price: The prices were fair considering the quality of the food, earning another 4 out of 5. Atmosphere: The restaurant had a distinctive and inviting vibe, which also gets a 4 out of 5. Overall, I had a wonderful time dining with my friends on Saturday afternoon.
