"Toasting makes me uncomfortable. But toast I love. Never start the day without a good piece of toast. In fact, let's toast to toast." Will be adding these guys to our "rotation" - solid fare for breakfast & lunch with a menu that has a few twist's & turns - good ones, which makes for FUN. Host, wait staff, and... More

Friendly busy place, serving good home style food. Get there early or be prepared to wait. No brunch reservations taken. We were a party of two on a Saturday morning. We got there a bit before half past eleven and had a twenty minute, wait. When we left a bit before one p.m. there was quite a crowd out front... More

Great, unassuming little place with delicious food and friendly, efficient staff. Especially on a nice day when you can snag a table in the back garden, it's perfect to sit back and enjoy. It's always hard for me to order anything but the Demon Lover, delicious fried chicken on a delicious waffle, with maple syrup AND cream gravy! But the... More

You gotta get to Oakland and 900 Grayson. You will probably have to stand in line for a bit, but they move you in and out pretty fast. But, the food is worth the wait. The "MUST HAVE" on the menu is the fried chicken and waffles with the white gravey.Didn't think you could eat waffles without butter and maple... More

I wanted to check out 900 Grayson because it's extremely close to both my work and my house so I was excited to see if I'd have a new favorite eatery. Unfortunately, the place just didn't live up to the reviews. The restaurant is small, cozy and has a lovely outside patio area to dine on. It reminded me of... More

This was my first time here. If there is chicken and waffles on any menu, I will try it. I was not disappointed. The atmosphere was bustling, so if you're looking for a long leisurely brunch this might not be the place for you. It was perfect for us.

Lunch was great. They modified my order to be GF and were very attentive to make sure all was to our specifications. Fresh ingredients in the drink and on the plate. The room was cozy but not cramped with all the windows and patio dining. I will be back.

People line up on week ends to eat at 900 Grayson - no wonder. The owners are two dynamic brothers - super menu - very good coffee - and a clientele who seem to adore waffles with fried chicken and gravy...go figure

Ate here with my husband. Fantastic pasta and salads. Good portion size and super tasty. The manager always seems to be a little uptight, but the food is delicious.

All the food is great. Order whatever you want, it will all come out good, good, good. Service is personal and friendly without being intrusive.
