Sequoia Diner

San Francisco

Breakfast Spot

$$$$

At this quaint breakfast and lunch spot in Oakland’s Laurel District, the husband-and-wife-team churns out homemade <em>everything</em> –– from the biscuits and jams to the granola and pastries, like danishes and sticky buns. Highwire coffee helps balance out those mimosas you'll drink while choosing from the usual suspects, like huevos rancheros, frittatas, and waffles, plus some surprises like chicken liver toast and smoked rockfish and corn chowder.
