Reviews for Gram Cafe & Pancakes in Milpitas, CA
I visited the restaurant around 3pm on Saturday for late lunch. Gram cafe shares the space with shabu-shabu restaurant. There... are only few tables on the far end of the restaurant that are designated for the Gram customers. I ordered kaki bento & ubecold pancake. The food came out around 15 mins after I ordered. - kaki (oyster) bento: pretty good. The oyster pieces were big &had crispy coating but it was pretty bland. The curry was too watery & very salty. The salad dressing was good (but it tastedstore bought). - ube cold pancake: the pancake was airy & light but not too fluffy. The ube cream was good (not too sweet &creamy) but lacked of ube flavor. Overall, just ok food and didn't meet my expectation. Read more
This was a pretty disappointing experience for the price. I got the wagyu beef curry which basically looked and tasted like a... hamburger patty from McDonald's slapped on top of rice and drowned with curry. The souffle pancake also wasn't much to writehome about. Maybe the standard flavor would have been better but there was a weird taste for this one. If it were cheaper I mayhave given it another try but it's too expensive, service was average, and food was meh. I probably wouldn't go again. Read more
Good fluffy pancakes. They really expanded their savory food menu as well which tasted surprisingly good. I really liked their... shrimp croquette. It's definitely a good alternative to hanabusa cafe because there's generally no wait and you don't have tobook in advance. Their pancakes take some time to make though. Something to note is that the bathroom here is always reallyreally dirty and when my friend tried to go months apart it seemed like they hadn't cleaned it in those few months? The stallthat was out of order then is still out of order now and still smells really bad. So we never end up using the bathroom here. Read more
Great service. And the food was just perfect. Definitely try the black sesame dalgona. We got here for brunch after a long hike.... And everything just hit the spot. The shumai starter, followed by savoury salmon & avacado pancakes. And finally the chocolatehazelnut souffle pancake was the piece de resistance, and well worth the twenty minute wait. We are coming back here for sure. Read more
Their specialty, just as the name of the place suggests, was f-ing amazing. My number one favorite flavor was the salted cheese... which was salty and savory sweet. The texture was airy, creamy, moist, and spongy. The ube was also really good. The takoyakiand the shrimp siu mai was barely palatable as they used the same weird potato-ish filling in both these items. Hopefully theyimprove on these appetizers. But everything else was bomb dot com. Read more
A bit strange cos it's sharing the same space with shabu. The food is ok. The SF store interior is much nicer. Staff was trying... their best but obviously short handed. Read more
Very nice staffs. General Japanese shabu, beef not bad, strong flavor Sukiyaki soup base, I like it! We also ordered a pancake,... it tastes not over sweety with soft and lovely texture. Most girl would like it! :-) Read more
Food was at, not best I’ve tasted but still pretty good, price for pancakes were significantly less than the one in SF
