50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Van Nuys

“Garcia brothers Cafe is absolutely amazing. The staff is very attentive. The food is killer. The atmosphere, ambiance is amazing. Absolutely my favorite Cafe.“

“Excelente lugar y ambientes agradable.. Buenísimo café!!!“

“Bostan by Grandma is all about attention to detail. The decor is immaculate, and the food presentation is equally beautiful.

The restaurant feels alive. No two tables are alike, every corner is decorated, and live flowers are all over.

The menu has a mix of traditional Armenian plates and Americanized offerings, along with an extensive coffee list.

And it really feels like everything here is meant to be shared. Not just because the portions are large, which they are, but because the presentation inspires conversation, whether it's from beauty or nostalgia. It really feels like popping into a long lost family member's house for a meal.“

“so i checked out rise n shine cafe recently, and it was pretty chill. the place has a cozy, casual vibe, good for a quick breakfast or brunch. i ordered some pancakes and coffee, and they were pretty tasty — nothing too fancy but quite satisfying. prices are reasonable, and the portions are decent. the staff was friendly and quick to take my order. it wasn’t too busy when i was there, so it felt relaxed. overall, if you’re looking for a laid-back spot to start your day with some good breakfast food, this place is worth a try. might come back if i’m around and craving a simple, tasty morning meal.“

“Our waiter, Jorge , was rude, intolerable and unacceptable. We have been patrons at Canter's since it started in Boyle Heights. I was a baby. It's a tradition. I've never been so embarrassed and disappointed for taking my family, my Jewish stepfather for the first night of Hanukkah received rolled eyes annoying breaths for asking for a refill of coke, he was insulted under the breath of being bothered by a barely busy waiter. In the last fifty years, the worst waiter I've ever experienced. Instead of introducing himself and asking what we would like to start with, we received “ it's the first night of Hanukkah, what do you want, tap tap tap, rolling eyes, better order now or we will run out” not in a cool east coast deli attitude way, in a grumpy rude, I don't want to be here, hurry up and order way. We're still talking about how horrible Jorge was. He ruined our first night's Hanukkah. We love Canter's and we will never stop dining there. But we never ever want to be waited by Jorge. What a mean, grumpy, rude man.“

“Food was great! I would definitely recommend. They have more options than the usual but even the usual meats are so good“

“pancakes, waffles, french toast!! Oh my!!“

“Stopped here on the way to the airport and I was not disappointed! I had a ham, cheese, mushroom and onion omelette (not on the menu exactly) with country potatoes and it was delicious! The coffee was good, the food came fast and got and the server was great. I'll be eating here again when I'm back in town. But they are cash only, luckily I had some on hand . . .“

“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!!“

“I've been meaning to stop by for months. This was a unique yet lovely experience.

Stand on line to place/pay for my order. Grabbed my number, took a few steps where I cured my coffee, needed additional napkins and my hot sauce. Next thing I know , this lovely plate was presented. Thanks to Hannah who was very helpful to me, while I decided my breakfast. I so enjoyed my meal. I didn't feel heavy.

In the middle of Toluca Lake, Sweet salt is a relaxing environment for solo eaters, get togethers and family dining. Stop by for lunch and dinner.“

“Breakfast burritos that will make you gasp with excitement - perfect crisp on the potatoes and the protein flavors and texture blend throughout, all wrapped in a warmly hugged flour tortilla. Red and Green salsas are a perfect compliment too (I switched off/on and between)

Chill and friendly way to start the day.“

“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.“

“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.“

“It is wonderful!! Service great and the food is delicious. Try the Tortilla soup!!!!“

“What a wonderful gem of a cafe! Such a delicious menu, everything is made fresh daily. The owner has been a chef over 20 years and takes pride in offering healthy delicious food. Caitlyn was a charming barista making sure I had a delightful experience.“

“Thank you for the safety packaging for delivery. Great tasting shrimp tacos, french toast was thick and tasty and the bacon was nicely crisp but there was an after taste of old grease from possibly another item that was cooked it....same for the scrambled eggs :0(“

“Food was Delicious and the service was great 👍😋“

“Great place, I have been coming here for years during lunch. Everybody is super nice and I am very happy with the good food! Last week I stopped by on Wednesday and also the next day Thursday. To my surprise the place was closed down, no signs nothing, that was a big bummer. Wednesday was still open, and I am sad they are not there any longer.“

“Only 4 Stars because the eggs where fully scrambled instead of the signature runny eggs. I've been to a few location and the one in downtown LA next to the E-line is my favorite one to go to. Will come back to this location and try again. Still a big fan of Egg tuck every cook makes food different that's anywhere you go.“

“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! :-)“

“The food was great! The POS Credit Card Reader was malfunctioning and delayed the transaction and service for everyone on a busy weekend. I sent my friend from Heartland Payment Systems to help them get something much better and faster payment processing via credit card. Hope corporate listens to these reviews and makes the change.“

“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.“

“great service and hospitality and also really good food. second time we been back since we're visiting LA from Vegas. I highly recommend eating here.“

“Food always good but today I had guests only in my they table a crew of ants were all over even on the sugar packages need to be on alert no to eat them they harmless.“
