French Toast & Co — Restaurant in Municipality of Al Shamal

Food: I have tried the salmon french toast which comes with a side green salad, and iced latte. The food is fresh and made in house and the hollandaise have a citrus concentration that makes it a heaven, the coffee is very delicious and the quality is excellent. One area of improvement, less oil in toasting the french toast making to balance the fat and heaviness between the toast and hollandaise and salmon in one bite.

Place: refreshing design in the upper floor, a lot of sunlight and good amount of greenery. I recommend it during the morning.

Location: is perfect, however, some plants and flowers on the sides of the door and a cute sign on the top of the door to guide people to the entrance will do a better change. It looks like a mystery block that you don’t know where is it at the beginning then how to enter it. A different color for the restaurant’s name will also do a good change because during the day you can’t tell where is it with the much sunlight.

Service: good service when you be seated, however I find their policies are not hospitable. You do not get seated until the whole group shows up, so, you will be in the waiting area until your group completes. It was during the Friday morning, so, few people were there and they didn’t allow us to get in until they made their own “discussion and meeting” to get us in. This is not the Saudi hospitality. Also, no children are allowed, which is not hospitable and doesn’t express our traditions. As far as I know, this place is local. Another point, menu should not be explained on the entrance, you may make the menu available there if someone ask for it before entering. Gentle high standards hospitality and welcoming is our identity in the Kingdom and it makes who we are, so, our policies and rules should not be the opposite. Explaining policies at the entrance is well is not suitable. It gives a stressful feelings to the customer and visitors and restaurants and cafes are one of the major entertainments and attractions in Riyadh. I consider this two stars because it is about HOSPITALITY, but the food and the friendliness of the staff is awesome that much that it covers that.

If you're looking for a great spot for brunch, look no further than this restaurant! This place specializes in French toast, both sweet and savory, and they really deliver. From the moment you walk in, you'll be impressed by the space: it's neat, spacious, and flooded with natural light thanks to the high ceilings and well-placed windows. Plus, the plants around the windows add a nice touch of greenery.

The chairs and tables are elegant, giving the place a classy yet comfortable vibe. We tried both the scrambled eggs and the original French toast, and both were absolutely delicious. The French toast was cooked to perfection: crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and just the right amount of sweetness. Our only regret was not asking for some berries to be added to our French toast, but we'll definitely do that next time!

The service here is also fantastic. The owner clearly put a lot of effort into making sure her customers are happy, and it shows. The nice lady at the entrance was very welcoming and took the time to explain the concept of the place before guiding us to our table. Throughout our meal, our server was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed.

We also appreciated that the level of music was not too loud, allowing us to have a conversation without having to shout over the noise. Overall, we had a great experience at this restaurant and highly recommend it for brunch. The French toast alone is...

The food at French Toast & Co. was absolutely delicious. We started with the labna dip, which was amazing - it had a wonderfully creamy texture and a slightly spicy kick that was so satisfying.

For our mains, the chicken club sandwich was fantastic, and the egg Benedict I ordered was elevated by adding the fresh guacamole on the side.

With so many tempting options on the menu, I wasn't able to try everything, but what I did order was fantastic. The atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing - it had a cozy, welcoming vibe that made the dining experience even more enjoyable.

The staff was friendly and attentive, providing great service throughout our meal. I'll definitely be coming back again to sample more of the delectable menu items I wasn't able to try this time. Overall, a wonderful dining experience that I highly recommend to anyone craving some amazing French...
