50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Alhambra

“The food was great, great little place“

“Henry was an amazing server! He was very quick to greet us and bring our food out within a timely manner. He also gave us our drink refills before we completely finished our original drink orders. We were all so thankful he did so. Henry made wonderful recommendations to me and my friends when we were deciding on what to order. I loved his vibes and how he spoke to my table. 10/10 Would definitely want to sit in Henry’s section every time I come back.“

“Cozy restaurant full of character, good vibes and yummy food near a babbling creek in a mostly hidden canyon - what’s not to love ?❤️“

“Came in hoping for brunch after a hardcore hiking and learned that breakfast wraps up at 11:45am — worth knowing. No regrets though, because I got the smash burger combo instead and it was excellent. Everything tasted freshly made, the drink came free, and the service was genuinely lovely. Only one thing bothers me was the heat… I’ll be back, and next time I’ll turn up before 11:45am.“

“Great experience, great food.“

“Busy when we went on a Sunday—there was a line going out the door to order at the counter. Vegan options include choosing tofu scramble or JUST Egg. Service was friendly and they gave us complimentary cornbread mini muffins. Nice sunny cafe space. Updated from previous review on 2026-05-20“

“Great coffee fast service before ANYTHING SIGN SHEET FOR HOW MANY IN YOUR PARTY HAD THE REYN SPECIAL ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ THANK YOU MS.LAURA YOUR FABULOUS DAHLING'S 👌“

“I actually ordered their chicken and waffle for breakfast and not thinking this can be that great (because I didn't choose this place but my mom did 😬). However, to my surprise, the Belgium waffle was huge and has a very good texture with a special dough. And Man, that chicken thigh is something else! I love that chicken was marinated first, then fired (or baked) so it's juicy and not dry at all! Not to even mention the Hispanic servers there can speak Chinese so that's why they can draw my mom back (and now me)! 🤣 👏 Bravo Nano Cafe 👏“

“Recomendado 100% La Comida Excelente, El Trato Excelente muy buen Servicio“

“Delish! Go early; it's a must try!“

“Delicious food and wonderful staff“

“My Momma & I enjoyed or service... there's this 1 lady that has long braided hair actually the only waiter she was on a game & treated everyone with kindness & was given top service even solo!! The food was good as well! Thank you ☺❤“

“Service: Waitress was on point! Friendly Personality. Giovanni, very courteous and was very helpful..“

“We arrived within 30 minutes of closing and the hostess came outside to flag us in that they were still open. All hands on deck with happy dispositions and friendly hospitality to get our beverages and refill them consistently and our food to the table right quick.

We had omelettes and a side of links, and the omelettes came with a house-made salsa that was divine. He also had a small order of biscuits and gravy which he adored. The whole ambiance is iconic American diner. I wish I could import the whole place and team over to Germany to show my fellow countrymen what American cuisine and warmth tastes and feels like. I cannot recommend the bacon avocado omelette enough to you. Go now, 11/10“

“The Jolly Jug is one of those iconic places that can never be duplicated. The original Jolly Jug was in South El Monte in the 1930s and people came from all around to eat their famous Pastrami’s and Beef Dip sandwiches. Going into another century of their delicious food and cold beer, you can’t go wrong by making a pit stop here. In a world of hip restaurants trying to reinvent LA cuisine, the Jug is comfort food, done right. ❤️“

“Great food and very friendly service. Didn't have to wait for our food. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been cutting out refined sugar and it’s been difficult but I came across this place and I was able to have a wonderful chocolate shake with almond milk and cocoa, yes it had sugar but pure cane sugar. It was a great alternative and it taste so yummy! I was also able to add toppings, healthy toppings, strawberries, blueberries, etc. so good! Can’t wait to go back❤️“

“I brought a Denver Omlette to work. They're all jealous of me. It's packed with veggies and ham. It comes with a heaping serving of hash browns and toast. Yum!“

“Friendly people, adorable environment, great food. The pastries were 10/10. For the non vegans, chicken eggs and cow milk is on offer. Loved the cozy, bright, comfortable space. Super kid friendly with a fun toy kitchen area, but the space is ample and well laid out so it's ready to find your quiet zone too. really liked the color choices.“

“My husband and I have been going to Mari Vees a few times in the past few months after our trip to Huntington Library. It's a cute little place. Victor, the manager, and his staff are friendly, very attentive, and always pleasant. My husband had a few different breakfast dishes which he liked them all. I love their chicken tortillas soup. We look forward to going there again soon.“

“los pankekes son deliciosos“

“It was very lovely, the new ice coffee is very delicious although the pancakes were a bit disappointing. Overall great experience and even with the overwhelming amount of guests here they’re continuing to get the food out relatively smoothly and freshly.“

“Had a fantastic experience at Aloha Stacks! The Hawaiian-inspired food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The Loco Moco and Ube Coconut Pancakes were especially delicious, and everything had a satisfying homemade feel. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the relaxed atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable. A great spot in El Monte for a hearty breakfast or Hawaiian-style comfort food—definitely worth coming back!“

“The wait wasn’t too long, the servers were really attentive, and the food was good. The ambiance wasn’t overwhelming, like a few other places I’ve had brunch at, and it added to the great experience we had. Definitely recommend for a Friday morning girl’s day. We’ll be back!“

“Got an egg muffin and the egg was so perfect in it! Deliciously yolky and the sandwich wasn’t very greasy like it can be in some other places. Doesn’t mean it was dry tho- just means it had the right amount! The prices are great as well, and the guy running the place was super friendly and nice. Definitely coming back to try the other menu
items. Highly suggest!“

“Such a great experience! The food was so good! We had the carne asada burrito, and it was absolutely delicious. I especially loved the Mexican rice inside the burrito—it added so much flavor and made it extra satisfying. The carne asada was flavorful, and both salsas were delicious! 🌯🔥

The restaurant was very clean, which I really appreciated, and they have an A health rating, which was great to see. The atmosphere was cozy and had that authentic Mexican restaurant feel. We also had some Squirt, which went perfectly with the meal. 😋

Everything was delicious, the service was good, and we really enjoyed our experience. Definitely a place I’d come back to! ❤🇲🇽“

“Also i feel that the Waitress at the Burlington NJ location is kind and welcoming to me & my husband who are older. We appreciate how she talks about new items to try. I will definitely request her area to sit since she is full time waitress“

“I had a small chicken teriyaki salad which was more than enough. It was absolutely delicious and the chicken was cooked perfectly. My husband had the daily special of baked ham with veggies and said they were delish as well. We will definitely be returning.“

“This was our second time here. The young woman host didn’t smile, nor responded to my greeting, “good morning” but our server was very friendly and that created a great atmosphere. We weren’t rushed to order. The food was good. They don’t have Tapatio chili sauce, but they have “chiles toreados.”“

“The cafeteria is a standard food hall with lots of seating and tables.

The main reason I go here is because of their Cali Cob salad is phenomenal. As a person that has tried lots of high end salads at other establishments, this salad is one of the best cobs I’ve ever had.

Almost as great as Joey’s in DTLA. The vegetables are very fresh, the dressing is excellent. I love that it has a lot of chicken pieces that are delicious and egg along with bacon pieces. It’s a solid salad for the price and one of my favorite salads of all time. I highly recommend it.

I will definitely come back to eat that salad & I’ll continue to try their other menu items.“

“pancakes, waffles, french toast!! Oh my!!“

“Came here getting baguettes before leaving out of town, got here at 6am and the bread is definitely hot. I always come here in the morning and grab there baguettes because their baguettes won’t get harden through the days.
Service here is very good absolutely attentive, nice and friendly.
Atmosphere they have outside sitting and inside eating as well, you can come as a group sit and eat.“

“From the moment you walk in, Flora greets you with a smile. My server Lizzy, was great and kind. The cooks deserve praise for a fast, tasty food experience. And last, but not least, Tony, the floor manager made it all come together. Thanks, folks.“

“My company used Crossroads for a very long project that required catering every weekday for over three weeks. Helen was quick on delivery, she was willing to work with us to add variation to the lunches and her prices could not be beat. The employees we were training highly complimented all the food. Sandwiches, wraps, tacos, bento bowls and salads. All of it was delicious. I cannot thank Helen a Crossroads enough for her hard work and wonderful food.“

“I highly recommended the IHOP , the food was served was awesome . The ambiance of the place was pretty nice and clean😊 i love the one staff name Yaneli ,she was great server and she always make sure me and my mom are comfortable, I love her positive vibes and she always smiling. Thanks for yaneli for doing a great service. 😊😊😊“

“muy ricos los desayunos se los recomiendo ☕️🥞“

“I went to eat breakfast at the Bell gardens location. Mary was my server, she was fantastic, very friendly and professional. So he took pride with giving excellent customer service. Plus she was doing the duties as the manager. The food was delicious, I recommend this location and the server Mary. Monday morning are very slow, weekends are very busy.“

“We absolutely love Sunrise Tortilla! We manage a coworking space called Industrious and have a reoccurring order set up with sunrise. Our members always look forward to breakfast burrito day! Their team is friendly, communicative, and always on time! Definitely would recommend!“

“Very pleasant staffs and the food was great and delicious at a very reasonable prices. I'm so impressed by the way they greeted you and make you very comfortable. They pay so much attentions to their patrons regardless of your ethnicity.“

“Me encantan sus chilaquiles y muy buenas porciones a precios accesibles“

“EggBred in Whittier was the perfect Saturday brunch spot. I started off with a fresh oj and cold brew. The orange juice was super fresh and sweet. Then came the TRUFFLE CRUNCH BURGER. I could immediately smell the truffle. I loved how savory this was. Next, I shared the BUILD A BENNY - PASTRAMI. The eggs benedict was SO good. For sides, I ordered the BEER BATTERED POTATOES & SD MAC & CHEESE. I highly recommend you put the Mac & Cheese on top of the benny, it adds another cheesy layer dimension. Overall, yummy food thats worth the price point.“
