Johnny D's does polenta stuff really well, and it's hard to find a place that does polenta for brunch at all.
Plus, the advantage to Johnny D's brunch is the Sunday blues jam that comes along with it, and often lasts all afternoon. When I lived in Davis this was a favorite and often led to meeting new and fun neighbors. It's not everywhere where a person can dance to good music played by their neighbors in a totally chilled-out setting on a weekend afternoon, AND eat good food.
Also, Johnny D's half-price menu during the dinner hour before their evening concert rush can be a nice way to get a better dinner out than you might otherwise for a reasonable price.
