We had a group of 20 from Leisure World Seal Beach for outside breakfast. Called ahead and talked to Amy the manager to be sure the restaurant could accomodate us. She said, sure, no problem and took care of it for us. We had two servers for the group. Waitress took our order and served us along with one other person. Fast service. We had fun. Weather was perfect for us. We found out lots of other groups from Leisure World come down to enjoy the outdoor dining in Seal Beach.

Delicious vegetarian omelette option was good, but it was hard to get a glass of water. They were so busy.

What a gem! BlackBoard Bistro has that cozy, neighborhood charm with a menu full of comforting classics. The pumpkin pancakes were fluffy and perfectly spiced (and yes, that pat of butter melted into absolute happiness). The breakfast burrito? Generous, hearty, and exactly what you’d hope for on a late morning when you’re running on coffee fumes.
The menu is extensive—everything from fresh salads to indulgent burgers—and you can tell they make things from scratch. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere has a casual, cheerful vibe.
Whether you’re craving breakfast all day or a good sandwich, this spot checks all the boxes. Highly recommend for a laid‑back brunch or lunch!

Sat outside, in the garden. Had to ask the server for another umbrella as it was super hot. The food was great but also had to remind the server for my soup. I don't blame the guy, we were a big party and came in a little late. Please try not to go there after 1pm, everyone wants to go home at 2!
The food was ok. I could have made it at home,saved money and it would have tasted better. Waiter brought me bland biscuits drenched in bland canned cold gravy. We waited to pay the bill. Should have just walked out honestly. 30$ for TRASH
