Such a cute little gem - very clean - coffee came in a tea cup with real chilled cream in a glass carafe, had the waffle and Hubbie had the breakfast burrito - complimentary fruit to start - nice homey touches! 🧡 the secret is out try this place!

Was fine, but expected more since it had such positive ratings. The place was much smaller than expected. The food was fine, but not memorable. If I had to recommend a dish, i'd say the pancakes. Avoid the turkey sausages--upgraded and paid $2.50 extra for two overcooked links that tasted like they were freezer burned. Would recommend that they serve a complete dish rather than serve the proteins, then send out the pancakes/french toast.

When I talk to people about the Cloud Café, I often hear it described as a "hidden gem," "best kept secret in Orange County," "quaint," and "cozy." The family-owned café opened in 2015 on the second floor of a medical building at El Toro and Muirlands. In 2019, it was moved to 23352 El Toro Road, gaining better visibility. The Cloud Café attracts the morning crowd, offering coffee in china cups and saucers instead of clunky mugs. Sada has a custom blend of spices (Spicey Sunshine Seasoning) available for customers to add to their food or purchase. The spice mix is excellent for those of us with compromised taste buds. All menu items are freshly prepared, taking 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your order. The pancakes are light and fluffy, and the Belgian waffles are thick and crispy. The freshly steamed omelets are particularly noteworthy. The café is open from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. It offers a loyalty program: spend $10 to receive a stamp, and once the card is full, you get $10 off your next purchase. The café is listed in Lake Forest City's Shop & Dine Community Gift Card program. A nice complement to the café's decorations is the wall Sada has dedicated to local artist Richard Banks, who produces original acrylic paintings. This is an excellent example of a small business supporting a small business, and the artwork is for sale. Treat yourself and stop by for breakfast sometime.

We were three people, and each one ordered a different dish, and they were all well prepared and delicious. I highly recommend it!

Tried for the first time and what a great surprise. Good choice of breakfast items. Excellent quality. Real vermont maple syrup for your pancakes or belgium waffle. Omelet was light and fluffy. Will definitely be coming back.

Saw this place on google maps and it looked good for a breakfast - cycled up to the front and there was a large older lady standing at the door giving me an unpleasant disapproving look (more of a stare), I smiled and said I’m coming for breakfast and trying to lock up my bike (to their hand cart), she grumpily said “well that’s a handcart” and then turned and went back inside.

I got back on my bicycle and went down to Denny’s where they’re always friendly.

Awful attitude on her, did not make me want to give her my money.

Excellent food. I had the French toast breakfast with a side of hash browns and tea. Everything was fresh and fantastic tasting. The quality and price cannot be found elsewhere.

My partner had the cheese omelette on a croissant plus pancakes and it was mouth watering.

The atmosphere was calm and pleasant and the service was spot on. I am not often in the area but I definitely will come again because I enjoyed everything so much.
