Pancake - Long Beach

I LOVE their ordering and pay feature. You scan a barcode and open a tab. You can order and pay right from your phone. We were a large group-10 people so the great part was not having to figure out whose card we were going to use, zelleing all over gods green earth, who had what, etc. The only drawback is that we were all talking and some people ordered later than others so our food didn’t come out together but that was more on us. The breakfast food was beautifully plated and so good. I had the red velvet waffles, potatoes, cup of fruit and ABC juice (apple, beet, carrot) I shared everything and was still full. My bill was $41 with tip. The service was very friendly. They were able to accommodate our large group but I’m not sure I would recommend a large group because it’s a small restaurant. The parking was okay on Saturday morning. It’s free but that little street gets busy. I didn’t use the restroom so I don’t have comments about that. They are only open for breakfast then close at 11am and reopen later for Indian fusion food. I looked at a menu - and could smell the food. It smelled delicious. Will definitely be going back.

the food was great but we waited almost 50mins for food. Food came out at separate times & drinks that were ordered in the beginning came when we were almost done eating.

The service team seemed to be overwhelmed. It took forever to get the order taken then it took a long time to get the food. When we got the food, it was cold. I would have sent it back but I was on a tight schedule. Seemed to be the type of place with the mentality that we were lucky to be there instead of valuing the patronage.

Breakfast potatoes were cooked to perfection. The moment I sunk my fork in I knew I was in for a treat, and it absolutely was. Everything was good and the value was great.

Pancake is a part of Cali Chili, therefore, a little hard to find. The aesthetic of the place is gorgeous. It's clean and kept very well. It's small, so I do recommend making a reservation. My kids ordered the chocolate pancakes, that were served so very aesthetically pleasing with berries, whipped cream, powdered sugar. The taste was incredible. You can tell that quality ingredients were being used to whip up the food. I tried the blintzes, which were super delicious, stuffed with sweet cream, berry compote and bananas. My husband had the biscuits and gravy, which was one of the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had. Highly recommend this place for breakfast. Will have to come back for lunch or dinner to try the Cali Chili menu.

Food very tasty! Since the restaurant also doubles as a sports bar the music and multiple media screens were somewhat distracting over breakfast.

LOVE this place, a hidden gem. The only reason I gave a 4 instead of a 5 star is that sometimes service is a little slow but other than that, food is always superb, staff is nice and friendly and prices are such a deal compared to anywhere else around

Breakfast was super yummy with a beautiful presentation. Service was excellent. Highly recommend!

We'll be back. Nothing overly impressive about the location. It is actually another restaurant/bar that renames itself for breakfast so makes it difficult to find. The food was good and nicely presented. I had the avocado toast (first time) and it had a nice sweet taste from a marmalade that was spread on the toast. There were several interesting items that we would have liked to try, the reason we'll be back, and hope they are as flavorful as what we had. The prices were decent and the service was good.

I had a reservation for Sunday at 10am. Got seated right away. Twenty plus minutes later I find out the rest of my party can't make it (4 other people). The crew didn't move me to another table. I had three servers helping me, and all were really nice and friendly. I ordered the red velvet waffles and side of bacon (I think 5 or 6 pieces). The waffle tasted really good, but the texture wasn't quite as night. It was kind of cakey and breaks apart inside. I'd ordered it again though for the taste. Would come back and try their other stuff.

What a delicious breakfast surprise this was! We picked it on a whim while I was getting my car serviced nearby. I had the avocado toast and my wife had the smoked salmon toast.The presentation was phenomenal and the flavors blew my mind. Really, really good!We each had a regular brewed coffee, which was also really good.We checked out their nighttime menu, when they switch to Cali Chilli and can’t wait to return!I would definitely recommend!Oh and the staff was equally amazing and friendly.
