Redwood

Family was in town for a wedding, my in-laws wanted to meet for brunch. I picked Redwood for the menu, but the photos on menu. It looked like win. We arrived 11 AM on a Sunday. There was a 30 minute wait, but we left a number and explored the cool shops on the street. Our Server was a man named Cameron. He was fantastic. He was kind, prompt, and quick. The food was delicious. Everyone had a trouble deciding. I went with mixed fritters and a side of bacon. My Father in Law had the Redwood burger, my sister in law had the hash, and my mother in law had an arugula and cheese scramble. It was all excellent. We shared bites. My father in law said it was the best burger he has had in time. Despite being packed, the noise was not overly. I would definitely go back.

Absolutely hands down our new favorite place! Food is Nomnomnom handcrafted goodness ❤️ & family recipes, shhhhh! Chantel is Ahhhmazing get it Gurl!, You made our morning! Thank s everyone for a great brunch! See you soon!🥰

I had the BEST brunch experience about a month ago. Ordered a ton of menu items to share, tasted the incredible cocktails and had the best service ever. My small group was blessed to have the owner as our server, who took care and attention to every little detail. I've been telling all my friends about this hidden gem 💎 I hope to return for a birthday celebration soon!

Super friendly staff and the food is beautiful and delicious. Two winners in this photo: smoked trout hash & veggie burger. Cheers!

Ate here a second time for breakfast! We sat at the bar. The bartender was super nice and quick to serve us! They had a great breakfast selection, it was busy for a Friday morning! Highly recommend.

Busy and cozy brunch spot with yummy food and something for everyone. Be sure to ask about their specials which include rotating Benedict, brunch dishes and cocktails. We got the chilaquiles, bacon arugula scramble, and waffles. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends.

Brunch at Redwood was wonderful! Everyone we interacted with was pleasant and friendly. Our server (in a very stylish bolo tie) was fun and genuine and gave us great recommendations- even when we were taking a while to order. Our food came out super fast and was so flavorful. I would 100% recommend brunch at Redwood!

Great burger and fries, great service. Nothing generic, nothing that seemed like it was from a food service company. Everything tasted fresh and made to order. Will definitely be coming back!

Haven't been to Redwood in awhile and I have to say it was really really good. We had the fritters, biscuits and collards, and a Marion berry waffle and they were all delicious. I used to live in the neighborhood and I remember getting Redwood at least 5 years ago and it was good. I was just highly impressed by the food, I had zero expectations going in, we were just looking to grab a bite to eat and I remeber it being a solid place. Well whatever you are doing keep it up! Everyone was really friendly too and the service was great. Thanks.

What a great breakfast or lunch spot! Reasonable prices for perfect execution and some really special and super wonderful menu items. We had a breakfast special with scrambled eggs, toast, bacon and AMAZING fried (FRIED grommet, FRIIIEEEED) potato pancakes, as well as a redwood burger with fries and all that accompanied by the Greyhound cocktail to share. The eggs were the kind of perfect that usually requires a well trained chef or at least a short-order cook with decades of experience. Fluffy-wuffy, not over-scrambled, hot, perfect. But the star of the show was the FRIED POTATO PANCAKES! Oh my sweet chocolate-covered baby Jesus... whomever thought of this one, my hat is off to you, no... actually, take my hat, please. I bow to your culinary invention and execution. The burger was a perfect medium, a bit of pink showing inside, juicy, and accompanied by such surprisingly fresh and flavorful tomatoes and lettuce, I have to wonder if they have alien minions bringing those in from some other planet where the sun shines all year? The shoestring home fries were a shock. Shoestring home fries are usually either a pretty limp and disappointing affair, or an over-fried, crunchy, burnt-tasting abomination. But these... they were juuuuuuuust right, Goldilocks! Somehow just crispy on the outside, moist and tasty inside, definitely benefiting from the flavor of the remaining skin to make a fry better than McD, and many more. We will be back! I can hardly wait to dive into the fritters! They seem to have a talent for all things fried...

Redwood has: A great place to meet up with friends The best Brussels sprouts Crunchy, sweet Blueberry fritters The perfect waffles with delicious blackberry compote Loaded hashbrowns that are insanely good Also, one of the people who works there looks a lot like Joseph Quinn and I SWOON ;)

Coming here on a Sunday morning you can expect a wait time of around 30min. The location has an outdoorsy atmosphere to it that feels cozy. The food is the reason why people are waiting to eat here I had an oatmeal waffle for the first time and it was dangerously good. Reminded me of an elephant ear you can get at a carnival. Staff was supper sweet and responsive!

We had lunch/brunch here with friends. I really liked this place and would dine here again. I got the chilaquiles and it was OK. They kind of deconstructed the the tortilla component and served the crunchy chips on top with no sauce on it and the mushy chips underneath with a salsa verde. It didn't work for me. All that said, I would eat here again. The croquettes were fabulous. Service was great.

Just tried Redwood today - everything was delicious! My husband had the waffles on special and loved them. The GF cornbread muffin with some jam was a 10/10 - thank you for offering that as an option!

Day 2 on our itinerary had us going to Redwood for breakfast. When planning the itinerary, I found Redwood as one of the top rated breakfast/brunch establishments on Yelp. With three rumbling (hungry) tummies, we made the 20 minute drive to the restaurant. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by an employee who sat us outside (per our request), turned on the table heater (it was a fairly nippy morning), and provided menus. Roughly five minutes later our friendly server (I cannot recall her name) came by to provide us with waters, coffee, and to take our orders. Per our server's recommendation, I ordered the Bacon Arugula Scramble with a Redwood Original (one of the beauties of being on vacation is being able to have a morning bourbon). My wife ordered the famous loaded hash browns with a Bloody Mary, and my son ordered the Fresh Mozzarella scramble with a hot chocolate. Approximately 15 minutes later our visually appealing orders were being delivered to our table. My son absolutely loved his order, which was doused in ketchup (I remember having a phase as a child where I put ketchup on everything). Also, his hot chocolate with a birthday cake-ish froth was absolutely delicious (he "allowed" me to have a sip). As for my wife and I...our food looked good, but did not taste the part. Everything was fresh, but the food lacked seasoning. I understand that some folks prefer to season their food with what is available at their table; however, the kind of seasoning that I am referring to needs to be done during the preparation of the meal. Although the food was not as good as it could have been, overall we were satisfied with our experience and the customer service provided. Our server was very attentive and did a great job of checking in on us without hovering. I can't say that we would return to this establishment, but I also believe that sometimes cooks have an "off day."

Great place for dinner! We were seated right away. Their margarita is one of the best I have had! All the food had great flavor and their staff was super cool and made sure we were taken care of. Smaller dining room for more intimate brunch or dinner!

I love this place and they take reservations for brunch. The location is a bit congested and there's only street parking but it is worth it. Me and the girls decided to have brunch and started it off with their featured, watermelon, jalapeño margaritas, which were absolutely delicious. I had the spinach omelette with salad. You can taste the difference here they use good quality ingredients and the farm to table concept. Our waiter was super attentive, and very knowledgeable. We will be back.

The food was delicious and came out in a decent amount of time. The service was great all the staff were friendly, easy to engage and offered really good starter options. Nice playlist music and the ambiance isn't to overbearing to disrupt your dining experience. I heard the Pinot Noir is highly ranked so I tried some here. BACON - ARUGULA SCRAMBLE - Three cage-free eggs* with chopped bacon, fresh arugula, caramelized onion, and goat cheese. Served with choice of hash browns-$17 Parking fairly easy all along the front of restaurants and bars. Don't for get to tip enjoy!

Was in the neighborhood on a weekend and we managed to miss breakfast and lunch and hoped we could grab a bite a half hour before closing (they close their brunch at 2:30pm). We made it in, under the wire. I didn't think I was in the mood for a cocktail, but The Pines cocktail piqued my interest. Habanero infused vodka, pineapple, lemon sour, coconut cream and muddled basil. This was rich and delicious with a little kick. My partner ordered up the Fritters. The blueberry fritters pair with lemon curd and the cheddar-corn pair with the chili vinegar. These were delicious whether you're craving sweet or savory. Exceeded my expectations. For my meal, I order the Huevos Rancheros. Three Sisters corn tortillas, black beans, two eggs (I ordered over easy) roasted poblano sauce, crema, queso fresco, and escabeche. I like the addition of the spicy carrots on the side. This was delish. Ingredients were fresh and flavors were a fusion of traditional with a slight twist. Staff was fast and efficient despite it nearing the end of the brunch hours. I get why this spot is popular and I could easily see myself upping this to 5 stars on a subsequent visit.

A good friend suggested we try Redwood for brunch and I'm so glad we did! Since it was a sunny day in the 70s, the covered patio was perfect. The coffee was excellent, my friend got a Bloody Mary, she said it was decent, but not amazing. The food, however, was great! I had a side of the Beyond vegan sausage, a side of hash browns and a cornmeal biscuit, which was really like cornbread. They were all super flavorful. The hash browns were so delicious I didn't need ketchup and the cornmeal biscuit was great with some jam. My friend had the vegan hash and said it was very good. Service was excellent, with multiple servers checking on everyone. All of the servers were super friendly and had a nice, positive vibe! This place is in a really cute neighborhood in the Montavilla area so it was fun to take a short walk afterwards and explore all of the shops. You definitely want to hit up Redwood!

Wow - this place is incredible! I'm not usually in the Montavilla neighborhood so had no idea where to go for brunch. I had already visited The Observatory which was highly ranked and was very disappointed - so I went in with low expectations. The food was sooo flavorful, the cocktails delicious, and all of the service was excellent. I wish I lived closer because I would definitely come back.

The Redwood has a casual and cozy feeling with attentive staff and outdoor dining for our sunny days. We tried the Huevos Rancheros and their collard greens. The collard greens were meatless and had a pleasant zip of pickling spice. They weren't prepared the way we normally have them down south. So the one of us that was looking for hearty southern style enjoyed them but probably would pass on them next time, but our Northern Adventurer was delighted and would definitely get them again. The Huevos Rancheros were very nicely done. They were beautifully plated, had a mild flavor to the sauce and very spicy pickled veggies on the side if you want to spice it up. Everything tasted fresh and we will definitely be back to try more of their menu. Those looking for gluten free and vegan options will find them here.

Great little space with a beautiful bar and ambiance! They offer indoor and outdoor seating, and a super friendly staff. Food came out promptly and everyone in my party was happy with their meal. I ordered the huevos rancheros, it was not traditional, but a good take on it. The flavor was good, but a bit bland and needed some spiciness. They only serve drip coffee, but it was very good. Overall, was a great breakfast spot! Pro Tip: Make reservations, it gets busy, especially on the weekends!

What a great spot! So impressed with the food and service at Redwood yesterday. While my partner and I are doing sober October and sadly had to pass on the amazing brunch cocktails on offer, we enjoyed the horchata cold brew along with the delicious dishes we ordered. The spinach scramble and potato pancakes was sooo good, and my partner enjoyed her hash browns/mama lil's peppers/egg dish as well. Service was also fantastic, and much appreciated especially how it seems so many restaurants are lacking in that area of late. Looking forward to a return (in November) so we can try some of those great looking drinks!

Last time I checked horseradish was spicy. I hate staff and. Places that can't admit they are wrong.

This place is my new favorite place in Portland! I was meeting a friend do brunch midweek and it was busy for midweek brunch, but Portland is a brunch city and I think this is the place to go! My friend ordered the huevos rancheros and I had loaded hash browns which I will definitely have again although their hash looks inviting too! The service was quick and waitress was accommodating and she let us move from a table by the door to one more warm. This is a keeper in my roledex of restaurants in Portland!

Dinner is back and DANG, it is amazing. We came in around 6pm on a Thursday and had our choice of indoor or outdoor spots. Indoor was a little muggy, but outside was great. We ordered SO many of the small plates... The almonds/olives, fritters, vegetarian tostada, carrots, and brussel sprouts. Every single dish was perfect. The service was also a delight. I will be back SOON!

We went for Lunch- The disappointing: I was so looking forward to the fried chicken sandwich- but it was tough, stringy and well- difficult to consume because it was way overdone. The brussels were- meh- a little too undercooked, and had more char than flavor. The Upside! The salad was good, the fries my friend had were good and she liked her BLT. Service was great and we were seated right away, which was unusual- I've tried to go for breakfast many times and left because it was such a long wait. It's a loud place- so you have to really be focused to hear your friend when trying to catch up. I will try this place one more time, because I see so many great reviews and I'll go get a reservation for breakfast next time.

Didn't know what to expect but the service and house made GF buns made me feel like i need to stop in more in the future. Food was overall good but didn't change the world. Very close to being something special but not quite there.

The food came out quick and was really good, Im really missing that RC cola. to locals its probably boring but where I'm from the only options are usually Pepsi or coca cola. If i want RC cola here i have to go to the store and who has time for that these days ? Anyways, side rant over, I got the breakfast sandwich, which is on the specials and I can see why, its tasty and the pork really just melts in your mouth. For dessert i had some sweet, iced coffee and, wow. I really just like the vibe of this place in the morning. The food was good, the sun hits through the windows just right. Everything, great.

Absolutely love this place! Food always delicious. Friendly vibes for all. One of best brunches in town. My neighborhood jam never disappoints for any occasion :)

The food was delicious with good portion size. The staff was welcoming, attentive and helpful in my decision making. They even brewed a fresh pot of decaf for me. I was very happy with my BLT and the kiddo got the smothered hash browns with eggs and bacon. We both enjoyed the NW artwork and decor.

I think this is my second time going to Redwood. I knew I liked it well enough the first time to return but don't remember what I had before. I sat at the bar solo so there wasn't a wait. It's a cozy spot, friendly and warm. This time, I originally ordered the loaded hash browns, then saw the flautas with eggs and roasted pork on the specials menu and had regrets. I asked the bartender how often they rotate specials, thinking maybe I could return for the flautas before they were off the menu. It sounded like they wouldn't be around long and I expressed my disappointment in myself for not ordering then. The bartender quickly checked with the kitchen to make sure my original order wasn't already in progress. When we learned it would be easy enough to change my order, I got the flautas. No regrets. They plated it beautifully, as you can see in the pictures. The contrast in colors matched the contrasts and complementary flavors. Getting a little bit of pork and eggs in each bite with some cabbage and pickled red onion was a delicious blend of flavors and textures. The flautas themselves had the right amount of crunchiness on the outside and soft chewiness on the inside. I also had the wingnut cocktail of pecan whisky, coffee, whipped cream, and cinnamon. It was good but, as I'm noticing trending from other reviews, I really don't know what to do with whipped cream on top of things. I should have blended it in instead of eating it separately. I should have figured this out by now. So learn from my obliviousness.

Brunch was the best yet. Tops Screen door. Service was friendly and great . Ambiance busy exciting ambiance upscale yet humble.

Excellent, excellent! Had an amazing Friday afternoon brunch with hubby and daughter. We fell immediately in love with this small, locally owned bar/restaurant that has an amazing all day breakfast, and you will too, if you can get in before they close at 3pm! The ambiance is super casual and the servers absolutely tops! There aren't many indoor tables, I did say that it's small, but there is also outside seating with individual space heaters (brilliant)! The food was over the top. I can't recommend one dish over another, as one was better than the next. A must have are the fritters!! Mix up the sweet and savory and go to town! Blueberry and cheddar chive fritters with lemon curd and chili vinegar to dip! OMG!! These alone are worth returning for! We all agreed we found a new favorite!

Not sure why I thought this was a pizza place ... I'm starving and walked in to get a slice and well.. not what I was expecting. Beautiful interior and calming decor. I sat at the bar and ordered a hot chai whiskey. As my first drink of 2023, I'm not sure there will be one better than this. Whipped cream and a ginger candy to top it. Wowza. For late lunch I had a tuna sandwich and salad with a mustard dressing. Interesting in a really good way. I'm still shocked at my discovery of a fantastic restaurant I want to return to soon.

My wife and I had tried to visit Redwood twice before, during what I would expect to be "normal" operating hours, but we missed out every time, due to them closing at 3pm daily. I'm not sure if this is a COVID/post-COVID thing or not, but it's been a challenge to get in the door. My fault partially, I guess, for not looking up their hours in advance, but still...9am to 3pm? Really? Even on the weekends? Whoever puts together the menu here knows what they're doing, though. I've said it before, but in previewing the menu and photos of the food on Yelp during our failed attempts to stop in before, we were of the opinion that everything they churn out of the kitchen here looks fantastic. There's a reason we kept on trying to come back. We finally made it on our third try, though! Was it worth the wait? Yeah, we'd say so. We finally made it in for brunch around 11am this last Saturday, and were seated immediately inside. As expected, there was no shortage of choices on the menu, making narrowing things down a bit difficult. Eventually, between the two of us, we settled on the Fresh Mozzarella Sandwich, Irene's Flautas (from the specials menu), and the Firebird Bloody Mary (once again proving that if you put "habanero" somewhere on the menu, I *will* order it). During the surprisingly short wait for our entrées to arrive, we admired the rustic interior décor, remarking that this seemingly hole-in-the-wall establishment (from the outside, anyway) was so charmingly appointed inside - it feels like the sort of place you'd stop in for a hearty meal while out camping or mountain climbing somewhere! My flautas were crisp and fresh, and improved slightly by the added side of pickled jalapenos I tacked on; they really should come included with the dish, if you ask me! The portion size was just right for a light morning brunch, and didn't weigh me down or leave me hungry. My wife's mozzarella sandwich was absolutely massive, and she enjoyed it quite a bit, although she remarked that it was a bit dry, due to their being no condiments of any kind on the bread. Adding a pesto or aioli of some sort (or a combo of both) would ratchet it up to perfection! Other than these minor nitpicks, everything else about our visit, particularly the service and ambiance, was excellent. I'm still not a fan of their operating hours, but I did note that they were holding a pop-up pizza party later that night, welcoming back some employees who had apparently departed for a while, and were returning to the fold. Does this mean that Redwood may reopen for dinner service later in the year? I hope so, because I'd love to see what they can do with an even greater variety of entrées.

First visit here was PERFECTION! Shantel is killing it. Absolute favorite Portland eatery! Corn biscuits and collard greens were divine! Whiskey Chai Coffee...HOLY COW! Super friendly and attentive service with a great vibe! Cannot wait to go back! Thanks again Shantel for an amazing experience.

Good selection, comfortable atmosphere and good staff. Feels homey just like cheers. our waiter was very attentive and that was helpful.

There is an word in here that was not supposed to be in here so I will correct it. The waitress was not Pathetic she was great

Very Portland brunch vibes, light comes into the restaurant and you can eat outside. The service was fast but our server wasn't too nice. The drinks were good! Some of the food was good some was okay. I would come back to try again maybe try some other food.

Been back a few times now and so far absolutely love the fresh mozzarella sandwich! The vegan breakfast sandwich is also great, the grilled veggie sandwich with the eggplant was a bit messy. For breakfast the loaded hash browns was amazing and I added their roasted poblano sauce

We got in around 1030 and waited awhile outside, I do recommend maybe sitting inside as it was so hot outside while eating. But they had some great choices on the menu. I tried the special of the day, Berry Waffles! The waffles were fluffy and still had a little crunch- perfect. The server suggested to pair with the lemon curd and she was right- delicious! I also tried a mimosa which was also good.

Our neighbor suggested Redwood for a Saturday brunch and I'm glad she did since I love trying out new places. The food was pretty damn good but our only sad-face was how long we waited for our mood enhancing 11am cocktails. Way too long. Almost 20 minutes and it wasn't even busy. We even had to ask if they forgot about our drink orders. Boo! Friendly and welcoming employees and delish food made up for the depressing wait for boozy drinks. Four Thumbs up!

Delicious breakfast, what a hidden gem. Quick and fabulous service. Can't wait to go back! Yum!

My first time here & the is hands down the BEST hamburger & dinner salad (opted for instead of fries) I have ever eaten! Server was awesome, even though I made a couple of changes to the standard burger, he got everything correct without even writing our two orders down. Noisy & a little tight, but oh so worth it!

The food was great, service was great, short wait time. The cocktail menu has a lot to offer and the ambiance is cozy but feels classy.

I tried the special breakfast burrito with pork roast and it was very good and fresh, not to oily. My friend had the scramble he enjoyed it as well. The restaurant had indoor and out door seating. I went on a Saturday around 11 and the wait wasn't that bad about 20 minute wait. The service was very nice and friendly. Good place to go for a date or with friends. Parking can be tricky, but you can find parking a few blocks away within walking distance.

Oh my gosh try the loaded hash browns breakfast it will change your life! One of my top favorite brunches in all of Portland ! Great service! Friendly staff nice atmosphere

There is definitely a new top evening dining establishment in the Montavilla neighborhood these days. I walked over to Redwood café in Montavilla tonight and consumed the most delicate lemon/caper/buttered perfectly cooked juicy filleted wonderful little trout. WoW! Great stuff! I also had a bite or two of my partner's apple cider brined bone-in pork chop...also WoW! And all the while bartender Tony was whipping up excellent gin-based concoctions (please note there are many bases one might choose from when drinking for the evening, and I'm sure Tony is well-versed in any of them) starting with the house special Devious Rex, moving along to a Corpse Reviver #2, followed by a secret special concoction of Tony's, with the quintessential finale of a Last Word. ... Of course, all of this was followed by a fantastic Gluten-free chocolate cake with ice cream, and a blueberry cheesecake. .... did I mention the brussels sprouts we started with? (No?, well, they were excellent as well.) Moral of the story... If you feel like going out and eating on a Thursday or Friday evening, definitely bring Redwood Cafe into your arena of consideration.... you won't be sorry!!!

One of my favorite places to eat in the hood. Staff are awesome and the food is fantastic. In my opinion they have the best hash browns in the city. I also love their burger and chicken sandwich..... and the cocktails!

Always good food and friendly service. We stopped in for breakfast, and we loved getting the mixed fritters as a starter. Half sweet, half savory with dipping sauces. All yummy!

A morning with Potato Cakes and amazing service on a wintry day. The place was alive with great vibes and super attentive staff. I don't love the neighborhood but I will be back for the food. It was THAT GOOD!

Visited Redwood for the first time today and while I usually like to patronize an establishment several times before writing a review, I'm in a review-y mood, so here goes. First off, I think 4 stars is generous. If I could, I'd do 3.5. The food was pretty good, but nothing to write home about. I ordered the fried oatmeal waffles which came with eggs and bacon. The bacon was top notch. The egg yolks were pretty pale, but I ordered over medium and that is exactly what I got, so points for that. The waffles were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, but they mostly tasted of oil, even with syrup on them. My friend ordered the trout hash and I had a bite of that and it was pretty delicious. The potatoes were cooked all the way through, and it was well-seasoned. I also tried the jalapeño-corn fritters and those were probably the best thing I tasted today. I read another review in which the person described their fritters as being almost burnt, with a very dark brown crust on the outside and a bitter taste. They had asked their server if that was how they were supposed to be and were told yes, but I can say that mine today were a medium brown color, crispy on the outside and squishy on the inside with good flavor. I went for Sunday brunch and it was packed and VERY loud. I was sitting at a table with 7 people and could only hear the person directly next to me. Our server was super sweet and on point. Overall, I know I wouldn't crave this place, but it's a decent brunch/lunch spot and accepts reservations and walk-ins.

This is another master cocktail from the new-ish owner here. She makes another with edible glitter that is just so much fun and so delicious, the perfect birthday cocktail. On Halloween she made a cocktail that looked like it was dripping blood. A true artist! There are regular brunch specials that are superb as well, Thursday and Friday, not just the weekend. New energy this year at this location makes what was already a fabulous restaurant even better. Montevilla is the brunch capital of Portland with Redwood and Lazy Susan next door and Hungry Heart Bakery across the street. Hungry Heart offers an impressive brunch on Mondays, so awesome.

We had brunch at Lazy Susan a few weeks ago, and noticed there was *literally* a line out the door with people waiting to get into Redwood, so we decided to check it out last Sunday. The wait time was about an hour already at 10am, but luckily the farmers market was open down the street so we took a stroll and our table was ready in no time. I had the smoked trout hash- the menu mentions the trout may have bones, but I couldn't eat a sliver of it without a bone. It's not a huge deal and to be expected per the menu, but my food got cold by the time I finished picking through all the bones. My counterpart had a scramble made with goat cheese and mama's little peppers, and that was superb!! We had a few different flavored mimosas that were good, but I really enjoyed The Pines cocktail- some spices but really smooth as well. This is a cute spot and they were definitely busy. Be prepared to wait for awhile if you check it out, but I think it was worth it!

Every once in a while, you run across a new place that's been right in your neighborhood. For me that place is the Redwood. I've been here twice now. Once for brunch and once for happy hour. I will say that it was their brunch that really stood out. Unfortunately, I accidently deleted my pictures from brunch. My wife and I each had their Fried Oatmeal Waffles, Bacon, and Potato Pancakes. I will say that this was the best Potato Pancake I've ever had! I can't wait to go back and have another. The Fried Oatmeal Waffle had a great texture and was fried perfectly. A unique twist on a typical Belgian waffle. The couple that we went with had the Spinach Scramble and the Smoked Trout Hash. Both dishes looked delicious. I'll certainly have to try the Smoked Trout Hash my next time I'm here. Along with a Potato Pancake of course. For happy hour my wife and I had the Chicken Wings, Fried Brussel Sprouts, Smoked Trout Tostada, Fries, and a Pumpkin Whoopie Pie for dessert. The Chicken Wings were the star of this meal. Large perfectly fried wings with a sauce consisting of sambal, fish sauce, lime, and house pickles. The Brussel Sprouts were great as well. The one item that was a little bit of a miss was the Smoked Trout Tostada, with only getting a couple tiny pieces of smoked trout, I felt like I was eating a crunchy tortilla with a pile of coleslaw. Though I will say the trout tasted great. Their hand cut fries were fried to perfection. If you haven't been to the Redwood for brunch, this place is a must try. It's worthy of a five-star rating. You will not be disappointed! The service here is great as well. Make sure whatever you have, get yourself a Potato Pancake. The Redwood also offers a solid happy hour and an inexpensive house red wine.

We had the fritters and the biscuits and collard greens scramble, both scrumptious. Sat outside on crisp November morning, with perfect little heater. Great customer service.
