I always love Sunday brunch here. The food is great and they have better coffee than other places we go for breakfast. There can be a wait on Sunday but we got right in this time. Busy but that's because they're good!

I just ordered an egg salad sandwich to go. Most of the sandwich was gross iceberg lettuce. There was maybe 2 tablespoons of the actual egg salad. I know becauset bread was very stale so I went home and scraped off the egg salad to put on a fresh piece of toast at home. Absolutely ridiculous I will never order a sandwich from there again. No wonder they asked me if I wanted my bread toasted because they serve stale bread. Also the sandwich is super small for 14.00 I've had their omelettes and those are good

Our server was friendly and fantastic... I did feel pressure to vacate our table by the hostess that stopped by a few times after plates were cleared. We still had a full blood mary and cup of coffee to drink. We were only at our table for 45 minutes at that time. Will come back for sure but won't feel peer pressured to leave asap.

Outstanding... 5 star. Loved the cute little restaurant. Greated by the owner of the restaurant. She's so sweet. The food was exceptional. And the staff was also very kind & thoughtful. You must go and treat yourselves to this little cafe.

Lido’s is really the best kept secret! We had to include them in our hidden gem series near Sacramento. We LOVE having breakfast here! We’re limited to 30 seconds a video on here, so if you’d like to watch the full video, you can see it on our Instagram @the.foodienomads we get close ups of everything we ordered.
If you love Lido’s, help support them by liking our video so that more people can find out about them and come give them a try!
Food and service were both great. Crepes were delicious.

The food and service were great the one time we went. I wanted to leave a review as a heads up for parents ordering kid's meals. They're over $10 and do not come with a drink, so if your child orders juice, it makes their kid's meal $15. Ask me how I know. 🤦♀️ I took 3 kids who all ordered apple juice because they're used to a kid's meal coming with a drink at most restaurants.

I had a brunch here at Lido cafe this past July. Yup, it's been awhile and now I'm finalizing my draft review. The cafe in Fair Oaks gets a thumbs up from me though. It's the type of place is becoming extinct... family owned and operated, neighborhood signature vibes, simple good homemade food, and decent pricing.
The hours are 7am-2pm Wednesday-Sunday. I dropped in on a late Sunday morning. The place was packed. Bustling with lots folks ranging from large generational families, solo diners, young teenagers with their friends on break to golden couples happily trudging along with their walkers. But even me and hubs could feel the sense of family ownership and welcoming neighborly vibes. Trust me, I don't get those vibes often. They had patio dining as well, but it was a bit hot for me to sit outside in July even with the shaded covering. But I'm a wimp regarding the summer heat. We sat inside. Comfortable and air conditioned. When it's a full house, it is loud and crowded. For folks with hearing aids, the tables along the walls are the best bet.
I ordered an almond milk latte. I didn't have high hopes of anything spectacular, but I was wrong. It was deliciously smooth and creamy with an airy froth and espresso flavor. Darn delicious. One of the best I've ever tasted. I also ordered a half order of eggs benedict. Luv that they offered a half order, most places don't. The hollandaise sauce was smooth and the poached egg had a satisfying perfect yolk ooze. The flavors were ok overall. Hubs ordered an egg salad sandwich that came with fresh fried tortilla chips n salsa. No complaints from him.
Another cool thing about the menu is that they offer doggie meals (for your fur babies). No lie. The meals average $4.95 and come with a water bowl. Dogs are served on the patio. Also if your dog needs to do his business, there is an ample strip of lawn with shade trees near the sidewalk in front of the parking lot.

Met up with a couple friends for lunch. Food & service was really good. The noise level was surprising...it was really loud. However, everyone seemed happy. Staff was friendly. I'm open to going back for another meal.

The TBA sandwich is mediocre at best. Tiny sandwich for what you pay and have to pay extra for fries😲🤷♀️The bread was dry and old .
I have been here a few times still trying to see if they get better but it’s really not worth the money. Not a hidden gem sorry 😞
Vanilla lates were a fave among our group of ladies that went in to travel. I had the Soup of the day and Half sandwich on RYE and the bread was so flavourful and seemed made in house. Salsa also made fresh. The butternut squash soup was very tasty and my ultimate fave. They even had a puppy menu. You can even call ahead for no wait for larger parties at least 30 mins ahead.
