We went in here for brunch on weekend. It was moderately busy, no waiting time. Ordered Benedict, French toast and pancakes for my kid. Everything looked great when it came, even in the pictures from other reviews but the food that actually came tasted average. Presentation made me expect that the food would be better but it was not even good, I’ve honestly had better French toasts at local diners! French toast came as two toasts one which was dipped in batter slightly and other was barely touched the batter - I felt like I was eating toasted bread with sweet cardamom infused cream which tasted flat bcz it was just whipped cream with cardamom which looked fancy but there was no depth to it! Eggs Benedict and Pancakes were fine like you’d get in any diners. Coffee wasn’t okayish too. Overall I felt the food looked really nice and tasted below average but priced fancy maybe for the atmosphere!

We were pleased at the quality of food and level of service. We ate breakfast after having spent the night at the motel next door, which was a convenient plus. We shared the Live Oak Benedict which was fresh and flavorful. The service from the hostess , server and beverage refresher was friendly and efficient. We ate there twice and would go back again.

We had a great time at this cozy place! I personally ordered a kimchi burger, and it was so juicy. Loved it.

Great breakfast spot! The Santa Barbara breakfast wrap was delicious and full of flavor. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere — definitely worth a visit!

My husband and I had the Pomodoro Pasta and it was just as special as any North End restaurant in Boston. The veggies were cooked perfectly, not mushy, such as other restaurants present. The noodles we ideal, as well. Prices are reasonable and I highly recommend the Live Oak Cafe.

My wife and I visited here numerous times for breakfast and dinner whilst staying in the adjacent hotel for a few days, staff were so friendly and polite. Food is really good quality, a great little place!
The manager was uncooperative and charged us $5 for extra piece of bread. Be careful they charge bread as a side of egg or omelet. Such scam!

We came for Sunday brunch and it was busy when we got there, but got seated immediately. Friendly staff, good food and drinks. My matcha latte had a really cool cat latte art. So fun! Make sure to check out the aviary outside :)

4 stars for no almond milk. Great place otherwise.

We discovered this restaurant when we stayed at the onsite hotel but have come back for more! There is seating in the building and under a sun porch where you can admire the birds in the aviary and look at the lovely pool area. The staff here have all been friendly and helpful. The menu offers a variety of real food options with some specialty items, like their coffee-infused bacon and homemade desserts. We go back for their multi-grain pancakes and excellent coffee. It feels like this place is making an effort to offer something special.
