Each flavor pairs perfectly with Pali's award-winning wines, sangria or mom-osas! Reservations are available online at paliwineco.com
En Familia
Dine inside a former 1923 Packard car showroom at En Familia, serving up Chef David Fuerte's Valle de Guadalupe inspired brunch like Horchata Waffles, Mole Chicken n Waffles, Chilaquiles, a Wagyu Breakfast Burger and more.

Poppy & Seed
A beautiful greenhouse and chef's garden set the scene for a serene farm-to-table brunch experience, highlighting local flavor on each plate, like Chef Michael Reed's Shrimp n Grits, Short Rib Hash, Brown Butter Butter Waffle, and don't forget their famous crispy brick hash. Grab a sparkling bottle for the table, a morning libation or a caffeinated cup.
