Great ambiance and fresh food! Little pricy but the food is delicious and is ready within a reasonable time.

Excellent service! Excellent food. I had the breakfast pasta which was incredible. My wife had the poached eggs over rice and bacon. The crunchy French Toast it's a must try.

We had Sunday brunch here, there was no wait time and we were seated immediately. The service was fast, and the brunch was good, The chicken taco was marinated perfectly, the blue jam Benedict was also good, the potatoes on the side was lacking taste, maybe some salt would have added to the taste. The iced coffee seemed very sweet to me. The ginger shots were good.

Excellent food, lovely ambiance on the patio. Had the smoked salmon Benedict and it was perfect. To drink enjoyed the special latte which was a rose matcha latte. Just the right amount of rose not too floral and the right amount of matcha not too bitter. Will definitely be going back!

This place does have incredible food but my review is based on other things. I ordered a burger and I found one curly hair in the bun. I took it out and didnt make a big deal. Then as I was eating the burger itself I found another curly hair and it was time to complain. I gagged because I realized the first hair definitely wasn't mine now ! My review was gonna be a 1-2 star because of this and it was hard to find a waiter at first bc everything is automated here (meaning you order through the website ). We finally found a waiter and he was so gracious and apologetic. They made a 1-2 star review turn immediately into a 5 star because how they handled the situation. Of course finding hair in your food is disgusting and unacceptable but they remedied the situation and comped our whole bill which I was not expecting. They said they take this situation seriously which makes me feel better that they'll be more strict in the future with hygiene.

Great service with great food! Made a reservation and was accommodated nicely. The staff had amazing recommendations and the menu had options for everyone. Will definitely come back!

Wanted to know what all the hype was about and I still don't know why all the hype. My dish was good but the others in our party were less than pleased as burgers came out rare. Morning hash was good and glad it was a lot so my fiancé could share with me. Brunch burger was not fully cooked.

LOVE me some Blu Jam! I was in the area craving this exact French Toast because honestly, I have yet to try one that tastes better than theirs! They have this new thing they introduced a bit ago, which is ordering from your seat with a QR Code or at the register in front- very convenient for you unless you're a 'service person.' It's always been a cute cozy spot & parking has always been a hassle but you'll definitely find something if you circle around. I love the "make your own omelette" option and that is what I got; it was so good that I didn't get a chance to take a photo haha! It's a bit tricky getting a hold of someone after being seated in case you need something but it's not detrimental enough to complain about. Ashleigh is an AWESOME employee who helps with anything you need, definitely a gem!

Friendly staff, great food and served really quick. Lots of breakfast choices and great seating options. Very clean washrooms.

A Sherman Oaks gem. First, it has a gigantic seating capacity. Probably very help during the weekends because even on a Tuesday morning it was half packed. Parking is readily available (street, meter), nice walking route too. We were looking for easy no-fuss breakfast options and this place popped up. The ambience is great, everything is very cute and cozy, every staff member we came across was incredibly friendly and inviting. Hats off to Jeff who just made my morning. He was joking around, checked on us constantly (even though they don't have wait staff, you order your food at the counter or online) and just left me feeling so welcome and warm! The online ordering experience was great. They had a picture for EVERY dish in the menu and detailed description, various choices and very generous portions. Thank you!!

"We're Jammin!" Blu Jam Cafe... "I wanna jam it wid you." This breakfast, brunch and lunch time fav, is a small chain in Los Angeles with seven locations, including their flagship in the Melrose/Hollywood/West Hollywood area. Sherman Oaks is my local for takeout/delivery and dining in [which included outside or in... gorgeous patio space in the front as well as more to the side and in back]... You can seat yourself and order at the front or via phone courtesy QR... The future is now! Having had most of their veggie friendly options on the menu. I opted in for the Vegan Wrap on the lunch menu from brunch breakfast. The Vegan Tofu Tostada, Spicy Vegan Tex Mex Tofu Hash and various vegan possible things [including coffee with almond or oat milk]... Unfortunately the S.O. location located on Ventura Blvd/Noble Avenue between Sepulveda and Kester... street parking mostly... Doesn't serve adult beverages like a lot of their other locations, but you don't need a stiff drink to enjoy enjoy a great meal here. The flavors for all the food is stellar! My new friend Rich raved about the Crunchy French Toast with vanilla bean sauce for syrup and his boyfriend (an old friend celebrating his birthday weekend), Art enjoyed his Simply Eggs combo. He wasn't crazy for the potatoes, but Rich and I loved them! The food blends well together. The service was great though you don't have an actual set server. They bring you your food and things you needs. A cafe of mint lemon water that's crazy refreshing, but then you're pretty set. Lots of classic essentials on the table [pepper, salt, ketchup, hot sauce, etc] and you get lots of napkins + utensils cleaned and sealed in a recycled paper material bag. Music is causal and familiar, nods to old jazz, blues, r&b, pop and modern throughout, was great to eat, enjoy and vibe out. We saw who I think is the manager and/or owner working his magic throughout in a cool Lakers cap in a casual but stylish fit. He seemed really friendly handing out nods and smiles to all enjoying their meal. A pretty decent deal for three meals, coffees, plus tip [a little over $80] which you do before you receive anything is very coffee shop or food of convenience... I know it can seem a little off beat for a restaurant cafe, but I gotta say BJC does it in a very special way. Q Tip: Check in and get a complimentary free ginger shot! They also offering catering and events.

Food was ok, but there is no waiters. You have to order on your phone or go to the front computer.... Then when you need anything you have to get up and ask for it. Definitely disappointed on the no service.

Blu Jam's food is uneventful and not worth the money. The dishes are inconsistent and lack flavor.

I was super excited to check out this location because I just love the WeHo one! Seems like this location is a bit bigger but the service was superb! We came on a Friday morning and there was no wait to get us seated. The waiter we had was super attentive and hilarious! I wish I remembered his name but he had a killer stash to match his personality! The food was delicious as always! However some of my friends were thrown off with the fact that the French toast doesn't come with syrup. That's not a deal breaker for me but if it's important to you BYOS cuz even if you request it, they don't have it. (Which is a little odd). Other than that the drinks were also on point! If you check in through Yelp you get a free ginger shot so we were quick to claim that. I'll definitely be coming back again and again!
