“My family loves to dine here!“

“Our dinner last night at IHOP was outstanding. I believe the difference was the service we received from Benjamin. We were greeted with friendliness and a smile as soon as we walked in the door and were seated promptly. Beverage order taken and filled quickly. All options and substitutions we addressed and accepted. The food was delicious, exactly how we wanted it, and served in a timely manner. Benjamin made sure our drinks were always full. He was really on top of everything during our meal making it a very smooth experience. We have gone to this IHOP many times over the years and typically the service is adequate. Unfortunately the previous time we had gone it was terrible. So much so that we addressed it with the manager another day. They offered to comp us a dinner, but that wasn't what we wanted, just better service. We decided to give them one last shot before writing them off. Last night was the complete opposite in the best way. Just service that went above and beyond any expectations. Benjamin really made all the difference and he is the reason will continue to go to this IHOP.“

“Basic diner ambience, the food is always good. I’m a picky eater wanting crispy home fries and crispy bacon and 9out of 10 they deliver exactly as ordered. Good service and it has an overall good vibe“

“Garcia brothers Cafe is absolutely amazing. The staff is very attentive. The food is killer. The atmosphere, ambiance is amazing. Absolutely my favorite Cafe.“

“Beautiful place, delicious food and great atmosphere. I really wanted to visit Bostan for such a long time. My family and I enjoyed the atmosphere, the music and the cleanliness of this place. When I ordered, they didn’t have one ingredient available, and it was kind of sad. I had to change my order completely. One reason to visit again, and try those!“

“biscuits “sent from heaven” Keyshia Cole voice Stopped by John O’Groats for some pre archery lesson fuel. Off rip, I knew it was gonna be bomb because my boyfriend actually has great taste and recommended it. I mean why would I date him otherwise? But I still had to be the one to taste it to believe it. Those biscuits put them on the MAP! I had lost faith in biscuits & gravy in this city. I have been let down time and time again because it was so weak. But these gave me hope for the future 🥹 I could see this place being my breakfast new normal. So if you ever want to stop by there, hit me up beforehand and we can brunch together🫶🏼🍽️ this is the type of place I would have FOMO over“

“I had a great time at the shop! My waiter, Albino, was funny, attentive, and made the whole experience enjoyable. The classic burger was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Excellent service and food—I’ll definitely be coming back for another visit soon!“

“The self care breakfast was perfect if you enjoy the Mediterranean style breakfast. What makes a big difference is just the quality of the ingredients. The feta, olives, eggs, the olive oil. So good. It was taking a little while to get our food, and they so kindly just brought us a piece of cake which also was delicious! Would definitely be a regular customer here.“

“The best Honey 🍯🍰cake I have ever eaten! Dumplings, lazy cake, and crepes with homemade (curd) farmer's cheese. Hige recommend 🇱🇹“

“Our Elite Tabletop Family cannot say enough great things about Cafe 50’s! From the way we were GREETED, TREATED, & SERVED, to the way they’ve continued to treat our daughter like FAMILY since she’s arrived in Santa Monica. They’ve been nothing less than spectacular and are the epitome of what a True, neighborhood nostalgic 50’s diner encompasses. No other establishment has ever provided fun toys & items of entertainment while waiting for our food. We thank Benjamin for that! Victor the GM checked on our table and made sure Kim our waitress was taking care of us! Kim was a fantastic server and we never once waited for a refill on anything. The staff @ Cafe 50’s take pride in their customer service & establishment and they deserve all the recognition! You have our family’s support for life Cafe 50’s! We would ❤️ to support you, supporting the local community!“

“I work very close by and would say this is one of the better lunch options in the area for me. Everything is always consistently ready very fast and it’s always tasty. There is a small free parking lot right out front, otherwise free street parking is also easy to find. Inside is large enough to dine in, but I always get it to go. They do have a pretty large menu with a lot of great options on it and I love that they have smoothies and drinks as well as food items.

I have tried a few different things here, but this past order I got the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and added avocado and honestly really liked it. The ciabatta bread was crispy and the the chicken was perfectly spicy and I just really enjoyed it. The dressing on the side salad was also terrific. I would recommend if you are in the area.“

“Food was tasty and delicious 😋 ….“

“I would say this is one of the better diners/coffee shops in the valley. I stopped in for my first time this morning and was pleasantly surprised, it was actually better than I was expecting. It’s a traditional American diner complete with fast service, fair prices, and a huge menu. There is a large free parking lot attached in the back otherwise free street parking is also easy to find. Our server was very polite and everything that we ordered came out within 10 minutes.

For my breakfast I chose the Sausage Patty Benedict and added avocado and really enjoyed it. It was better than it looks in the photos. The sausage is grilled so it has that nice grill flavor and the hollandaise was not too watery. I also got a side of sliced tomatoes and would suggest trying them too as a side. Inside is pretty large with counter, booth, and table seating and can host many different size groups. I would highly recommend and will be back again in the future.“

“I am latina and typically I prefer to eat authentic Mexican food at home but this place really does serve authentic Mexican food and happy to know if I'm craving an enchilada, taquitos or chilaquiles, I can hit this spot so close to work.

I've tried their Breakfast and lunch and everything has been delicious. Their breakfast egg, bacon and pancakes platter 10 out if 10. Their popular Enchiladas Ranchera, on point. Mole chicken enchiladas BOMBAY!! And I'm picky as hell when it comes to mole. Recently ordered a Chicken Caesar salad, as well as their seasoned potato wedges (they don't serve fries), big portions and so good. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable. Oh and almost forgot, in my last visit there was a complimentary chips and salsa mini bar. Friendly staff, fast service, good food, great prices. It is 1000% a hidden gem in Studio City.“

“Excelente lugar y ambientes agradable.. Buenísimo café!!!“

“Stopped here on the way to the airport and I was not disappointed! I had a ham, cheese, mushroom and onion omelette (not on the menu exactly) with country potatoes and it was delicious! The coffee was good, the food came fast and got and the server was great. I'll be eating here again when I'm back in town. But they are cash only, luckily I had some on hand . . .“

“Great food, great service, wonderful atmosphere!!!“

“What an amazing breakfast! Frank our server was amazing! Split a huge breakfast burrito with my daughter and we had the OG and banana nut pancakes! Perfection! Everything so fresh and locally sourced… this will be our breakfast place every time we visit LA“

“Excelente lugar, excelente servicio, todo muy Rico ❤️ muy recomendado.“

“First time coming to eat here after my buddy recommended it. I was pleasantly surprised for sure. The menu was easy, the food itself was not greasy and filled with carne asada. The service was friendly and quick! Zero complaints and I will be back!“

“I saw this beautiful Italian restaurant on Robertson and fascinated by the decoration I felt I was HOME in ITALY. HAND made pasta organic garlic best olio the food great and the people that worked there very kind - great listeners they know exactly how to make you feel home Food delicious just like ITALY . Angie great in taking care of you friendly knew every dish and suggested ideas in what to order All in All amazing experience excellent customer service of course the food just like FATTA a Casa“

“Awesome breakfast place with real quick service! Friendly staff!“

“The atmosphere is classic: a bit of noise, a bit of anticipation, and the feeling that someone at the next table has been eating breakfast here for twenty years. The service is undramatic—they're not rushed, but they're also attentive, as befits a place where coffee is poured with philosophical calm.
This isn't a restaurant for gastronomic discoveries, but a reliable stop when you want a simple, straightforward breakfast and the feeling that the world is still in its right place. Will you come back? Most likely. Especially if you're craving pancakes again at any time of day.“

“Amazing customer service and excellent food!! I will definitely be back!“

“The sever was exceptional 👍👍“

“Excelente lugar, excelente servicio, todo muy Rico ❤️ muy recomendado.“

“What a wonderful gem of a cafe! Such a delicious menu, everything is made fresh daily. The owner has been a chef over 20 years and takes pride in offering healthy delicious food. Caitlyn was a charming barista making sure I had a delightful experience.“

“Love the Americana and nothing better than an egg on a sandwich“

“Since my son is a vegan we decided to try it for brunch. Great healthy food and friendly service.“

“great service and hospitality and also really good food. second time we been back since we're visiting LA from Vegas. I highly recommend eating here.“

“A casual, order-at-counter restaurant. I was in a group of five and we all liked our food. I had a chicken taco with tortilla chips, one person had a chicken wrap with a bowl of fruit, another person had a steak quesadilla, 4th person had fish taco with beans and rice, and fifth person had an eggs, bacon, hash browns and French toast breakfast. We were there for Saturday lunch and we parked in the building where the restaurant is located for a $6 flat rate.“

“Call ahead! The wait at the sandwich section can - at times - be a bit slow & tedious and can cost you half your lunch hour. Plus I don't love the fact that their default channel is "Fix News". Still, the salad bar is fabulous. Also, Maggie and Ruby absolutely rock! :-)“

“I’ve ordered Saby’s many times on Uber Eats and it’s by far my favorite place for breakfast burritos. I have many food sensitivities and it’s easy to adjust the menu items as needed. The El Nopal green juice is my favorite, always delicious and refreshing. You can tell the juices are freshly juiced. The person who wrote the bad review should actually try this place and update their review instead of trying to hurt small businesses.“

“The food was great! The POS Credit Card Reader was malfunctioning and delayed the transaction and service for everyone on a busy weekend. I sent my friend from Heartland Payment Systems to help them get something much better and faster payment processing via credit card. Hope corporate listens to these reviews and makes the change.“

“Yeah it's expensive, as any restaurant located in an upscale office area in a concrete jungle is, but the food is pretty darned good. They had another Trimana that I went to more often, up the street, but it floated off down the river during the pandemic. The manager of this one on Oxnard is a very nice man and he even said that he can't control the costs - except if they were use cheaper quality ingredients and then it wouldn't be as good. I recommend any of the salads or sandwiches. You can't go wrong with like any of them. If you have no food in the fridge at home or need to go for a lunch meeting, go to this Trimana, you won't be sorry.“

“Only 4 Stars because the eggs where fully scrambled instead of the signature runny eggs. I've been to a few location and the one in downtown LA next to the E-line is my favorite one to go to. Will come back to this location and try again. Still a big fan of Egg tuck every cook makes food different that's anywhere you go.“

“great service and hospitality and also really good food. second time we been back since we're visiting LA from Vegas. I highly recommend eating here.“

“Food always good but today I had guests only in my they table a crew of ants were all over even on the sugar packages need to be on alert no to eat them they harmless.“

“Had to go to the Italian consulate and when we came out, we were starving. Decided to try Blu Jam Cafe right down the block and we were so impressed! Absolutely excellent salads, we had the SW salad and the spinach salad. Both were done to perfection, every bite was delicious! Wish they were in South OC!“
