50 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Los Angeles

“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“

“Finally tried Mood for their newly launched dinner service!

I’ve been seeing this place all over Instagram and couldn't wait to visit this trendy LA hotspot.

The Vibe & Space: It’s actually a bit cozier and smaller than it looks on social media, but that made the atmosphere even better! The decor and table settings are incredibly cute, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming.

The Food: The culinary quality is outstanding. The meat dishes were perfectly cooked, tender, and flavorful. I also loved their menu concept—they feature unique dishes inspired by various cultures, which made choosing what to order so much fun.

Pro-Tip: Since the space is on the smaller side, I highly recommend making a reservation in advance, especially now that their dinner service is getting popular.

It completely lived up to the social media hype. I will definitely be back!“

“The food was amazing. Had the salmon croquets and pancakes. Everything was fresh hot and delicious! 😋“

“Always a flawless experience here; the service, food and coffee never disappoint. I tried the breakfast burrito with Beyond sausage this time, and it was incredible. Super flavorful, perfectly filling, and left me feeling energized instead of weighed down. I love seeing high-quality plant-based options on the menu!“

“Great experience, great food.“

“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! :-)“

“👌great food, friendly service.“

“San Pedro Café, led by owner Jhon Marovich, is a true standout in San Pedro and one of the top dining spots in the area. The restaurant offers excellent value for families—our group of eight enjoyed a full meal for around $80, making it both affordable and satisfying. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with beautiful décor and framed photos of famous personalities that give the café a unique character and charm.
Jhon personally took the time to explain the dishes and their nutritional value, making the experience feel personal and genuine. The service was exceptional from start to finish, especially from our server, Arlet, who was incredibly attentive, always smiling, professional, and quick to make sure every table need was taken care of. Her positive energy and hospitality truly elevated the dining experience.
The café also features an open bar, a kid-friendly menu, vegetarian options, and a solid selection of wines and spirits. Parking is convenient, the area feels safe with regular police patrols nearby, and the restrooms were spotless and well maintained. Overall, San Pedro Café delivers outstanding hospitality, comfort, and value, making it a highly recommended place for families, friends, or anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience in San Pedro.
the server Arlet was so attentive, also, and the have big smile. the whole team was welcome .“

“One of my favorite spots for vegan breakfast. The atmosphere, staff, and food are all absolutely next level. I always bring my parents here when they visit, and even though they aren’t vegan and I am, they still rave about their meals every time.“

“Such a good breakfast spot. Staff was super nice and friendly the whole time. Food came out really fast and everything was delicious. We got French toast, hash browns, and Portuguese sausage—no misses at all. Prices were pretty reasonable too, which was a bonus. Overall just a really easy, tasty, feel-good meal. Would definitely go back.“

“delicious food very friendly staff we receive our food and 5 minutes strongly recomend this place“

“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!“

“Great food. Large selection. Beautiful atmosphere. Amazing staff. A+!“

“The holy land of Hollywood. Canter’s is a staple of Los Angeles, and has been visited by many of the greats and legends. With an extremely impressive menu list, you will be happy with whatever you get. The pastry counter is excellent with some great black and white cookies.“

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

“Delicious food and wonderful staff“

“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.“

“Enjoyed sitting outdoors with my daughter and two granddaughters after their Kaiser appointments. I had a very tasty Turkey Club sandwich with waffle fries, while my daughter enjoyed a great omelette and her kids had mini-Belgian waffles with sprinkles. Just Perfect!!“

“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!“

“This cafe and Juice bar STOLE our hearts! A MUST when in San Diego and La Jolla. I mean, WOOOOWWW! We were able to sneak in a quick breakfast before our whale tour at the Little Italy location, and thank goodness we did! My only regret is not visiting every single day for their exceptional breakfast and high-quality juices! I ordered the All I Avo Wanted - Blue corn, waffle, smashed avocado, feta, shaved radish, over easy egg, chili flakes, hemp seeds, salsa macha. I mean, holy moly. The delivery was beautifully executed and built perfectly. The blue corn waffle was moist yet firm. My mother ordered the Shakshuka - another favorite dish of mine that WOWed. You can not go wrong with Parakeet. Thank you to the divine chefs and baristas - you made Parakeet the most beloved restaurant during our time in California!!!“

“French toast so good and burritos.“

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

“We went in for a quick breakfast while waiting for our flight. Right when we walk in Mayra greeted us with a friendly smile and cheerful attitude. She also made sure all our needs are attended to the whole time. We enjoy our meal feeling like we just went to visit and chat with our mom. Mayra is truly a gem for this IHOP location.“

“I had the quesabirria. Really solid dish. The consumè had solid flavor and the beef was well marinated. Others on the party had pancakes and French toast which they both said were all really good. Would highly recommend this place and would come back given the chance.“

“100% recomendado los mejores de LA“

“Omg food was sooo good. I've been going to iHOP since I was a little kid and it's always been so good. And even more Nohemi was such a great server. Very nice, quick, made sure our waters were filled and tables cleared. Will be back!!“

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

“Marco (the manager) & Patty (my server) were great. Such attention to detail and truly cared about providing exceptional customer service. It doesn’t take much to provide a positive/professional experience for customers and as I watched each of them go above and beyond I felt the need to acknowledge them outwardly and now online amidst the norm of negative reviews often being the focal point for a company. I will have my family write one as well and will return. Aside from that, the restaurant was clean, food was great and came out within minutes!“

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

“Look, it's a small traditional LA Latino breakfast spot with really great food at great prices. Highly recommend it, especially if you're not looking for something trendy that has good food. Service was great. No frills - Just good all around.“

“I came in right as they were closing, but they were so kind and didn’t rush me while I made my last minute choice. The pine nut cookie was heavenly. Look forward to trying the rest of their offerings next time Updated from previous review on 2026-02-09“

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

“I Googled good affordable breakfast sandwich near me and found this great little Mom & Pop place. In a sea of overpriced & underwhelming food, it's nice to see good food for a good price. I got a simple, but yummy breakfast sandwich, and spent under $8.00. Busy & friendly place. It's located in the courtyard of an office building, where you enter from the alley. Will be back on my next airport run!“

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

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

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

“We ordered the croissantwich w/ avocado and the breakfast burriot w/ chorizo, both were 10/10, the burrito was one of the best in LA imo. Food came out quick and Adam was super friendly, great lowkey spot. Dont forget to get the salsa verde“

“I got the luxe breakfast burrito. I had it about 6 or 7 years ago and don't remember it being as humongous and tasty as it was. 17 bucks and change after tax. Well worth it! I got about two thirds through it and had to ask for a to go container. Honestly the BEST breakfast burrito I've ever had. They have a wide menu of options. If you're in Westwood village DO NOT snooze on this place. Absolutely fantastic!“

“Service is different basically,
You download the QR code order or go up to the register. They bring you your drinks 🍸 and then the food.
The location is perfect and the food is delicious- I eat very little be careful one place can feed 2+ if you can eat alot then you will absolutely 💯 % be beyond satisfied worth your money 💰 parking fee parked inside the structure bring your parking ticket 🎟 and they have a automatic machine that will clock ⏰ it fir you major discount and you only pay $3 not bad at all for bring in the shade safely parked. Overall experienced cozy clam clean and delicious.“

“From out of town. Nice surprise breakfast spot.“

“I go there for late night breakfast and it's always cool cause you can get a burger too 😊👍“

“Oh my god, this is my absolute favorite scramble. I ordered it for breakfast today and only remembered I wanted to leave a review when I was almost done 😄 It’s incredibly delicious - so soft, tender, and just melts in your mouth. These are my favorite egg and bacon sandwiches. Thank you!“

“Brandon was great. Super chill, super friendly, and just made everything easy. Food came out fast, he checked in at the right times, and the whole vibe was just better because of him. If you end up at IHOP, hope you get Brandon — dude’s solid.“

“My son is in love with your minestrone soup.. Your pizza..and your tiramisu!!“

“We had breakfast, ordered off the Western menu and the eggs bene was excellent. Then we went for dinner the same night, I had the grilled mackerel and soup dinner, great presentation, tons of banchan selection, and super tasty. Restaurant is on the 2nd floor, and the service was excellent.“

“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! :-)“

“Whoever started only filling the aioli sauce halfway, your mom’s a… you know.
If I’m paying 50 cents for a cup of this sauce, I expect it to be filled. So instead of having one, I now have to get two just to completely eat my burrito. Y’all know what you’re doing. Stop being greedy and give me my gd aioli sauce.

Edit: they have fixed the issue. Thank you so much for filling the aioli sauces properly 🖤🙏“
