I've been going to Plum's with friends and family for over seven years. There are only two other places I like to go to for breakfast, but Plum's is still better. For those of you who are frugal when it comes to dining out, don't go to Plum's. Plum's is for those of us who really enjoy GREAT food, checking... more

A culinary treasure known for their award-winning breakfast. The Northwest-influenced menu features signature dishes such as, Sante Fe Eggs Benedict (poached eggs over peppered ham and fresh baguette with chipolte-cilantro hollandaise). Best Blueberry Pancakes from the griddle complete this yuppie OC eatery. $$ more

I'm a frugal diner so I thought this place was a little expensive for what you were getting. It is a local favorite though. The food is definitely a couple of steps up from Denny's and so is the crowd. When we bring our small dog to eat with us they put us in this strange, small table away from... more

Went there for Easter brunch 4/17/06 and it was fantastic. Make sure you have a reservation or you'll be waiting. Try to sit on the patio if it's nice. My friends had a crab asparagus omelet, they also had great hazelnut and blueberry pancakes. The service was outstanding. It's in a hole in the wall mini mall but is a... more
