50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Marina Del Rey

“A classic breakfast at IHOP that hit the spot. The food was tasty, straightforward, and exactly what we expected—nothing out of the ordinary, just good, reliable comfort food. Quick service and an easygoing diner vibe for a solid morning meal.“

“On a cool day, when the city noise reluctantly fades, I found myself at the doors of a place called Killer Cafe. And I entered like a wanderer seeking not only food, but a moment of comfort.
Inside, I was met with a gentle light, like the evening glow upon a quiet river. The people there were not hurried, yet not idle—each occupied with their own purpose, as though every minute carried its own value.
I tasted a simple dish, yet one made with care; and in that simplicity there was meaning, much like a line that seems plain at first, but holds the soul of its maker. Their coffee was strong and warm, awakening thoughts like a morning after a long winter night.
And I thought: it is not luxury that defines this place, but its ability to shelter the weary traveler and grant a brief moment of peace amid the noise of the world.
Such is my impression—modest, yet warm, like the handshake of an old friend.“

“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“

“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 💣 😋“

“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 Menemen was absolutely delicious - fresh, flavorful, and almost as good as the one I had in Istanbul! 😊 It reminded me so much of the Bulgarian mish-mash. The oat milk latte was perfectly smooth, too. I’ll definitely be back! ☕❤“

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

“Angel at this IHOP made my California visit worth revisiting my favorite breakfast destination. She made up for a prior unsatisfactory experience at home which made me rethink my choices. She served my friend and I with a smile and she did everything an experience worth mentioning. She restored my trust in IHOP.“

“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 LOVE this place! They have happy hour from 3pm-6pm on the weekdays, but the best part is Joy the amazing Barista! She is very nice and will always make your day! I get so much school work done here! 1000 stars!“

“Martha’s is one of my favorite spots steps away from the beach with TERRIFIC EGGS BENEDICT & CHICKEN 🍲 SOUP! Service is friendly & efficient!“

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

“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!!!“

“👌great food, friendly service.“

“I got lunch delivered from them for the first time today and it was absolutely amazing. I wanted to try the brisket, but they were out so I ended up with the steak sandwich and they were really apologetic and nice about it and even tossed in some extra freebies in my bag. I can’t speak to the atmosphere since I was not there, but the food was so good. I will definitely be visiting in person soon.“

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

“i absolutely love this place. The owners are super sweet and the food is DDDEEELLISSHH!“

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

“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.“

“Delicious sandwiches! Beat the line and go early“

“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!“

“First of all, this place is highly talked about for their fluffy pancakes—and now I see why! We had to try them, and they were incredibly soft, with the melted butter on top making them even better. We also shared the French toast, which was just as delicious. For my main meal, I ordered the chicken pesto sandwich, and they definitely don’t skimp on portions—it was packed with juicy chicken and plenty of flavorful pesto. To top it off, I had an iced vanilla latte, and honestly, everything was absolutely delicious. Definitely a spot worth the visit!“

“Good is always good and staff is always courteous“

“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!“
