John KiddeJune 8, 2016Get here early on Sunday (by 8:30) and you'll beat the rush for this delicious breakfast food. Love the thick french toast and bacon.
The first time here I ordered Bill's Steak and Eggs. A delicious tender and juicy tube of tri tip steak went well with scrambled eggs and hash browns with a pancake on the side. Decadent and delicious
Susan CarsonNovember 13, 2017OMG my husband and I went to Bill's for Breakfast and we shared a Ortega Omelet with their Country potatoes and it was so incredibly wonderful. YES go there, just get there early.
Josh PerezSeptember 27, 2013Steak and eggs are so good. Also ask for the eggs Benedict cordon bleu with croissant instead of English muffin. And if you haven't of course try their mimosa
Kat 🐱June 20, 2019Expect ~20 minutes of wait on the weekend. Crab Cake Benedict is surprisingly good! Portion is huge - consider splitting a plate with someone if you're not too hungry.
Vin RAugust 23, 2015Delicious. If you have breakfast fan, you'll be coming back here regularly try all the goodies. Wish I lived in the area in order to do that myself.
LanApril 27, 2015The southern scramble has sausage and egg over a biscuit and topped with gravy. Delicious!!
Californian omelette is great. Fresh tomatoes and avocado and perfectly sautéed mushrooms.
Adam HSeptember 14, 2014Mimosas with fruit & a decent Bloody Mary. I add A1 sauce to add some tangy flavor.
The mimosas, the benedicts, or the french toast. Everything is great, you can't go wrong. Best brunch in the Bay area.- Craig NorthMay 29, 2015Awesome breakfast joint. Great fresh OJ, coffee and the eggs Benedict and pancakes are amazing. Highly recommended!
- Sara TaylorSeptember 24, 2017Amazing waffles and delicious hash browns! Excellent breakfast spot. Lots of veggie choices.
Ron HaedickeJuly 28, 2013What a great find for Breakfast. The Mimosas were the most fabulous start to the morning. We enjoyed the whole experience.
We eat every week and feel its worth the wait. know its good because its allways packed. Get the mexican omlet sub the bread for bskt n grv- danny alvarezMarch 1, 2015Great food, french toasts are delicious, the mimosa is a dream and the service is excellent
Sannidhi 🐾April 6, 2015Delicious mimosas with fresh sliced strawberries and omelette with goat cheese and avocado. Banana Pecan waffles were delicious too.
College Hunks Hauling JunkJuly 8, 2015I've tried most if the Benedict all are great! Especially the California and crab cake
Our favorite breakfast spot... Order the Greek lemon soup if going for lunch! Yum! Long waits on weekends, free coffee and lively= worth every minute
Sami MJanuary 7, 2018French toast with orange mix.. The service was very good.. The food was OK.. It was too busy place.. I give 6/10
- The Mexicali Benedict is amazing. They also do a great Parisian French toast.
Rebecca DailyOctober 3, 2010although i live a few blocks from the willow street Bill's this location has a much shorter wait (about ~10 min). the mimosas and omelets are awesome!
I can't stop ordering the Jalisco Scramble. Mexican brunch food is my excuse to indulge in my love for hot sauce.
Sir Francis WestJune 14, 2016Eggs Benedict: half crab cake half mexican fiesta. Top it off with a mimosa just for fun.
Joe EngledowSeptember 14, 2013Good California diner food. Bottomless coffee cup. Attentive waitstaff
Michael MellinMarch 15, 2012Completely satisfying food and great drinks. Glad I live in walking distance of the one on the Alameda in San Jose!
Masha AdamianOctober 17, 2015The long wait wasn't that bad with the limitless free coffee. Huge plates!
- Carrie ChiuJanuary 15, 2011Sit at the counter. It's first come, first served. If you have a small party, it's way faster than waiting for the table.
bloody marys,chorizo scramble and benedicts are sure things here. Know to see tequila shots in the AM.
Great place for breakfast. 100% satisfaction on everything.
Try the petaluma scramble munus the cheese if you're trying to be healthy!
Sean WongDecember 7, 2015This Bills is so much better in terms of layout and decor than the willow glen location.
Seating at the counter is first come, first serve. Usually no wait and the service is faster :)
