50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Marina Del Rey

“Great quality for the price! Staff is exceptionally attentive and pleasant. After spending some time away I’m happy to see this place reopened. I appreciated the M-F, 7-830a, breakfast special, which was a great deal for this neighborhood.“

“My wife and I have been to a lot of IHOPs in different cities, but this is BY FAR the best in terms of food quality, speed of service, and wonderful management.
This IHOP consistently produces food that is well-seasoned, and never over/under cooked, all while having the food come out at a reasonable pace. We also had the opportunity to host a large event in this IHOP for about 45+ guests. Even with the large headcount, the food was AMAZING and came out so fast. All of our guests told us afterwards they would love to have future events at this IHOP.
We are so thankful for the manager (Marilyn) and our wonderful waiting staff who helped make our event so special and efficient.“

“Kai is an amazing chef. The food is flavorful and everything that you need. He has an a lovely variety of selections. The environment is inviting and positive. The staff is courteous, professional and friendly. The music is just what you need to enjoy a day or night out with your friends, colleagues, family, etc. I'm definitely coming back!!“

“It was an unfamiliar European-style (Eastern European?) meal. The taste was better than expected. You may have different preferences for some foods, but overall, it was a dish you could enjoy without burden. This is a restaurant that women will really enjoy.“

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

“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“

“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! :-)“

“👍Delicious Food .. Good 4Brunch 💃🎉“

“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!“

“This secret coffee breakfast and lunch spot is the best tasting food and value in the Westside bar none. Tucked into a lobby spot on Sawtelle, you can get a giant delicious egg breakfast with fantastic potatoes or chicken sausage for under $20. Coffees, waffles, sandwiches top notch. Why go to all of the douchey influencer spots. Great service and the guys here are always friendly pros. Check it out!!!“

“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“

“omg me encanta loaded cafe .my favorite breakfast place !!! chlaquiles con Carne azada en salsa Roja y un waffle to top it off...now they have pastries 3 leches and cheesecake are bomb 💣 😋“

“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“

“The flavoring were superb. The customer service was above average. Great location. I will definitely recommend and return.“

“Good is always good and staff is always courteous“

“Delicious sandwiches! Beat the line and go early“

“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!!“

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

“My family and I love Snax! Great food, and super convenient!“

“IHOP is always a fun spot to take the kids when you’re ready for a sugar rush and stacks of fluffy pancakes. Honestly, I go there mostly because my kid wants to — and he loves it. For adults, the menu has plenty of solid breakfast and lunch options too. At this location I tried the egg white omelet, which was a healthy and tasty vegetarian pick.

It’s also worth noting that IHOP has been among the chains with the steepest menu price increases since 2020 (reportedly around +80%). Even so, the quality-to-price ratio stays fair, making it a reliable choice when you just need a casual meal that keeps everyone happy.“

“Had the best experience here. Great food, a view of the ocean, and amazing service. We came with our toddler and Alex was so wonderful and kind. Immediately brought him food and made sure we had a great time. Thank you, Alex!! Can’t wait to come back.“

“I came here with my family. We looked up local places and this place caught our eye. I've missed a good breakfast burrito and they did not disappoint. My husband had the chilaquiles with egg and he loved it. We bought two breakfast quesadilla's to split with our 4 kids and they were huge. They couldn't even finish them. And the owner was amazing, so friendly and he brought us our food even though we were sitting next to the counter. If we lived in Cali still we would come here often.“

“Auntie Beulah's isn't just a meal, it's an experience. From the fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth bacon, egg, and cheese biscuits to the hella hot biscuit's fiery kick, every bite was a flavor explosion.Let's start with the star of the show: the poutine gravy fries. Creamy, cheesy gravy blanketing perfectly crispy fries - it's the ultimate comfort food, elevated. The chicken tenders were juicy and perfectly seasoned, offering a delicious crunch with each bite.For a sweet treat, the French toast sticks were heavenly. Dipped in maple syrup, they were soft, fluffy, and the perfect way to satisfy a sweet tooth. But wait, there's more! The smothered biscuits were smothered in rich, flavorful gravy, making them a hearty and satisfying dish. And the cheesy grits? Oh my, the cheesy grits! Creamy, cheesy, and oh-so-good, they were the perfect side to any dish.Speaking of sides, the banana pudding was a delightful ending to the feast. Fresh bananas layered with creamy pudding and whipped cream - it was the perfect touch of sweetness to top off an incredible meal.A special shoutout to the hella hot biscuit. This one packs a punch! If you love spicy food, this is definitely for you. It's not for the faint of heart, but for those who dare, it's a flavor adventure worth exploring.The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall warm and inviting atmosphere. Auntie Beulah's is more than just a restaurant; it's a place where you can feel the love and passion poured into every dish. I can't wait to go back and explore more of their menu!Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for delicious Southern comfort food with a modern twist. 5 stars all around!P.S. You won't regret ordering everything I mentioned, but if you have to choose, the poutine gravy fries and hella hot biscuit are must-tries!“

“stumbled across this amazing place. EVERYTHING was perfect. The staff were sooo friendly. The food was superb. A wonderful atmosphere and beautiful setting. we are going back tomorrow ❤️10/10 Thank you. oh and the shandy is fab 🤣x“

“Went here for breakfast recently and the food was good and the service was prompt. But what really impressed me was I used the restroom and the soap dispenser was empty. I informed the manager and he not only refilled the soap dispenser but brought over to the table a big bottle of hand sanitizer for my hands which was truly impressive. I consider that a true act of thoughtfulness. Thank you!“

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

“Whenever we are even close to Downtown LA and staying in a hotel for a night or more, we have IHop delivered. It is just the best.

We have eaten at this one more than once and it is clean, the service just great and the whole place is very comfortable. The servers are always nice.

This time we had it delivered and it was, as always so good. They pack it all in such a way there is no way it can get ruined or food mixed with other food. The delivery is fast and I have never had an issue, not once.

This time we had burgers, which were so good with bacon and cheese. My grandson had a grilled cheese sandwich with French fries and he loved it. I am the huge pancake lover in the family so I had their big breakfast that comes with the best, most fluffy and perfect pancakes along with hash browns and bacon, ham and sausage. It was all great and I saved the meat for our dogs who were waiting for us to get home (we were at a hotel nearby).

It is just the best and the prices are so fair. You will pay much more for some fancy place, but their pancakes won't be as good.

We love it. We are addicted.“

“Love the Chilaquiles and the protein pancakes. Great service of Lucia �“

“Delicious food with feelings of home. This is a lowkey spot with a large menu for breakfast lunch and dinner. I’ve been here a couple of times and their food is consistently delicious and definitely authentic. It’s a good spot to dine in. I’m vegetarian and there are easy options without meat. I already can’t wait to come back“

“I have been going here forever I love this place! ? I recommend their Boba and chocolate custard donut ? my favorites! Everyone is always so nice there ? Too bad they close kinda early though. I love Kathy she's so sweet I don't know if she works there anymore ?❤️ Totally recommend this place!“

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

“Got the veggie omelette today. Perfectly cooked. Very nice, fresh spring greens and country potatoes on side.

I come here also for the farfalle marinara: my kid's fav. Sauce is super, best we've had, she asks for this dish twice a month.

I have their pasta punch card for repeat customers. When I get a free small pasta I usually choose the penne aglio olio, a very nice snack, piping hot, fresh out the pan.

Quiet location, family vibe.

I've seen some negative reviews here, but my experience always been stellar & yummy here; it's why I keep coming back.“

“Excellent food! I ordered a breakfast quesadilla and it was delicious. I really like their ordering system. Don't want to order at the counter? Sit a a table, scan the QR code, pay and they will bring your food. The only downside is that it is freezing in here.“

“Absolutely hands down the most delicious ham cheese egg croissant! Coffee was delicious too.Delightful and relaxing cafe. The folks are so gracious.Celebrating post visa appointment at French Consulate was made more special with Cafe Cinema.Cheers!“

“My husband and I loved the Philly cheesesteaks! We met the owner, Sergio, and his wife. They are the sweetest couple! The food was delicious and the friendly interactions were great. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a filling meal and a reasonable price! We got two Philly cheesesteaks, one with fries and the other with potato salad, and a large fountain drink to share. Total was $33. They had just enough jalapeños to give that spice, but not too many that it was distracting from the other ingredients. Come check them out!“

“Honestly very impressed with this place. Don't expect fine dining or anything unusual. But if you're looking for classic diner fare you won't be disappointed. Got their big French toast (available all day) which is a feast of breakfast food (eggs, sausage, bacon, hash browns, and of course 4 pieces of French toast).“

“great place for a meal, coffee, and a good view of“

“I recently discovered Garden Cafe, I work quite close to it and didn't even know it! The inside is small but well decorated. I ordered the Mediterranean vegetarian wrap. It was good, not the greatest, but good. There are a few other vegetarian options I will have to try, and I heard their breakfast is really good! I will have to come back again.“

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

“Great food and even better service. Absolutely love the outdoor patio!“

“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! :-)“

“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.“

“We hadn’t been to IHOP in ages, but our friends from Hong Kong were eager to try it. Our waiter was incredibly friendly and sweet. The cookie butter pancakes were absolutely delicious, and the chicken and waffles were equally tasty. The waffles were so flavorful that they could be enjoyed on their own.“

“We popped in here for dinner before ashow at the Forum. We were staying downthe street and google popped this up as agood spot. There weren't very many carsoutside so we ventured in. Super glad wedid. All of our food was on point. It is muchbigger inside than it looks from outside.The staff was friendly and attentive. If l amin the area again, I would definitely eat hereagain.“
