1 gluten-free labeled option. Pretty expensive for what it is. You also don't really interact with staff. So might as well get it to go. Potatoes were cold. read more

This place was deelish! This was one of the best lattes I've had in a while! I also ordered the Norwegian eggs Benedict with salad and it was a perfect and hearty breakfast. The poached egg was cooked to perfection and it had great flavors. We got there super early so we didn't fight crowds but as a heads up parking is tough. We also sat outside and it was chilly with no heaters out. Lastly, all ordering is online...I love the use of technology but also could help to talk to a person if there are questions! Overall great times, great food and I recommend it if you are looking for a decadent breakfast/brunch spot. read more

Sad to leave this review as I felt that blu jam was a solid brunch spot for a few years but it seems like quality had gone down significantly. Service is pretty barebones if not straight up lacking, you step in and not a single person greets you and the servers just look at you and walk past, never seen another sit down restaurant where I have to actively look for someone to be served. The French press was very muddy which used to be a consistent item here. The breakfast burrito extremely bland and the aioli they provide with it is somehow just as bad. The turkey chili they had as a seasonal was way too watery to be chili and just gloopy enough to not be a soup. Even the tables are too tiny to hold more than 3 plates at a time before you start having to play Tetris. For $20 on a breakfast dish, it's not even like this is a cheap spot, just disappointing overall. read more

Blu Jam Cafe - Blu Jam Benedict with grilled potatoes-yummy! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here around 12pm on a Monday for lunch. You walk in and greeted and told to sit anywhere and scan the menu on the table. What they fail to tell you is you need to order over your phone or at the ordering station and no one comes to take your order. So my toddler, dad and I sat there for 20 minutes just waiting to come until I turned around and saw people in line and saw the ordering station. Last time I was here was before covid and it wasn't like this. So I had no idea things changed. It would be great if they told you this. But anyway, on to the food. It was good. I remember it being better. My dad enjoyed his California omelette and I got the breakfast burrito which was good. Iced coffee wasn't great. I would skip that. read more

Our favorite brunch place in Los Angeles. The best French toast ever! Loving the crunch.

MUST TRY - my favorite brunch spot in all of SoCal!! Food - 10/10 Ambience - 10/10 Service - 10/10 I live an hour away from Blu Jam but drive here very often to have the brunch. We take every guest who's ever visits LA here and everyone raves about it!!! The french toast is unbeatable- the best I've ever had. Their Chilaquiles are my personal favorite and my husband loves their benedicts. Their potatoes as a side are always wonderful. We always strat off with their legendary check-in shots. Blu jam never disappoints and I cannot recommend it enough, specially this location! read more

First time here at Blu Jam cafe and the food is delicious! They have wonderful different type of drinks. Hot or cold. Service was good an employee explain to me well on how to order.

Loved all the dishes we ordered. The crunchy French toast was my favorite. The breakfast burrito was okay it was lacking in some flavor it def needs some kind of sauce to go with it. It's more on the healthier side of a breakfast burrito (wasn't greasy) and you can definitely feel like you're eating clean. The burrito goes well with the potatoes. read more

french toast is stellar and the omelette is huge. finally a place that portions appropriately for the price!

The breakfast burrito I got was decent. Before I went, I saw some reviews say it wasn't very flavorful so I got the salsa verde with it. They were right, it wasn't that flavorful but it wasn't bad either. The crunchy French toast was also pretty good, not too sweet. read more

Good brunch food. Good service. More interesting if you go with people. Mimosa's are good here.

Do not dine in if you're hungover- the restaurant has really high ceilings and is ECHO-EY af!!! My friend and I were sitting right across from each other and could barely hear each other unless we raised our voices. With a little hangover it made for an over-stimulating atmosphere. We came for brunch around noon on a Sunday. There was no wait time for a table for 2. There is an option to order via QR code at the table or walk up and order at a counter. Food was bomb and came quickly!! I would say it was overpriced, though :/ read more

Blu Jam Cafe - Migas, Grilled Cheese Sandwich Lunch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Solidly good food, friendly service in a comfortable contemporary setting. As we used to say at NASA, " Go for Blue Jam." I haven't been to BJC since covid and wasn't impressed, but decided to try it again on Sunday because my first choice was closing at 2 (BJC was open to 3). I'm glad I did. I was annoyed that I had to scan the QR code to get the menu, but was happily surprised to see not only a menu on the board behind the counter and even a printed menu. The choices were quite interesting and deep. My Estonian companion had the brunch burger (egg on top); messy but delicious. I had the mushroom salad and added fried tofu that whimsically took the form of a soy funnel cake; excellent all around. It was not crowded so I could not judge the staff under crunch time, but they were very friendly and helpful and I have confidence in a good experience even at lunch. The outdoor patio area looks nice and somehow feels separated from Wilshire Blvd that is just a few yards away. Nice touch: the manager came over to see how we were enjoying the meal and really seemed to care about our comments. read more

Service was great. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was ok. Not sure what I was expecting but it was alright. The potatoes were delicious and with it a decaf cappuccino- it was not tasty. Perhaps next time I will try something else. read more

It's my first time at this location but there's been a lot of changes to Blu Jam since pre-COVID (assuming it's the same at the locations). For example, no servers, self service stations, ordering via QR code, seating yourself. Not a hit at all, just a culture shock and understandably so. GET THE FRENCH TOAST!!!! Really glad that it's still a staple here and really good! Especially with their latte....10/10 Got the breakfast quesadilla and it was alright at first. After adding copious amounts of the hot sauce and pepper, then it became really good in my opinion! read more

I am a blu jam OG. I used to go growing up and was a little bit disappointed with this location. I don't enjoy ordering via phone and the lack of physical menus. The prices are high for the quantity of food you get. I understand that food is expensive nowadays, but I think that the Experience doesn't align with the prices.

Blu Jam Cafe - Chilaquiles French toast hangover scramble - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Lovely little brunch spot nestled right on Melrose. You walk up to the register yourself and order. The waitstaff does help out but they are much less hands-on than a typical sit down restaurant. Honestly, I found this refreshing! I kinda just wanna be left alone when I'm eating, but that's just me. The prices were a bit high of course, but I'd say our meal was well worth it. I got the Burgundy Omelet, which was MUCH better than I was expecting. I've had omelets with goat cheese before, and they just weren't executed well. But this was genuinely one of the best omelets I've ever had. The goat cheese wasn't overpowering, the mushrooms were thin and delicate and cooked perfectly, and the herbs used were the perfect compliment to all the flavors. Most of the breakfast options come with Blue Jam's play on hash browns/home fries; which my sister and I started calling "potato cereal", because that's basically what it is. Tiny, crispy, delectable little cubes of golden brown potato that go amazingly with eggs, salsa and toast. I'm big on texture and these were great; so scoopable and cute. But most importantly, delicious! We also tried various juices: I got orange juice with an added ginger shot, which was invigoratingly refreshing. Overall, I'll definitely be back to Blu Jam Cafe and would recommend it as an extremely solid brunch spot that is sure to please a variety of palettes. read more

Another location for Blu Jam. I actually been to the Hollywood location and really enjoyed it. They are down the street from my work so came here for lunch. The restaurant appears spacious but I felt like the tables were pretty cramped. I got the Migas which the waiter recommended and was not impressed at all. MIGAS - Scrambled eggs, jalapenos, chipotle, ground beef chorizo sausage, red bell peppers, tortilla chips, mozzarella, pico de gallo, GMO free corn tortillas, grilled potatoes When the food came it smelled delicious but it was just a pile of mush. The chips were soggy and the tortillas were stales. I had a pretty rough night too if you know what I mean... read more

We went to this place for breakfast with my BF. We got the same order : moka cappuccino + French Toasts. That was very delicious. The food is a 5/5 To order and to pay, you need your phone. One person accompanied us to the table. On person came to the table to bring the food. And.... that's it. Nobody is there to recommend you their preferred dish, or to answer questions. It's a very depersonalized service where you still have to tip. Service : 3/5 To park : street parking | or parking that they validate. read more

Ordering and paying process. No thanks. Pain in the ass. And I had to order 3 times in the app.

Amazing food! Fell in love with their signature French toast topped with captain crunch cereal at the Blu Jam in Melrose during my my very first visit to BJ. This location did not disappoint. Their French toast was equally delicious, Norwegian Benedict was good, and especially enjoyed the salmon hash! Perfectly seasoned, quality ingredients, fresh bread. Friend ordered matcha rose latte which was really tasty. Friendly service. Ambiance is nice and spacious inside. Definitely recommend for a nice, delicious brunch spot! Hit the spot post hike! read more

Be warned, parking sucks. There's no way around it. In the middle of Brentwood, Blu Jam Cafe sits in a popular spot, so you'll have to find parking somehow. Protip - there's residential parking behind the cafe, but be ready to spend a little time looking for parking. Onto the food... We ordered the Crunch French Toast ($15.95) and it was decent; not a whole lot that's super special. However, I do appreciate that it wasn't naturally super sweet. You can always add sugar to a dish, but hard to subtract. So, bonus points for that. We also tried the Breakfast Panini (eggs, bacon, cheddar, chipotle aioli on sourdough with a side of grilled potatoes) and that was a 10/10 dish. The panini was grilled to perfection, and the potatoes were cut very small and perfectly sautéed. Overall, good cafe; TERRIBLE parking YMMV read more

A must for breakfast and brunch! Everything we ordered was delish and the service was great! There's underground parking available in the building and it's validated by the restaurant. You can get on the waitlist on their website when you're a few minutes away, which was very helpful and your entire party must be ready to sit when called. You can place your order at the counter or from your table with QR code and staff is consistently walking around clearing plates, refilling water or available if needed. The food and drinks were sooo good and servings were plentiful. There's ample seating inside and outside for your choosing. The prices were reasonable and the ambiance was good for a busy breakfast cafe. read more

I used to love Blu Jam Café on Wilshire. I have great memories there with friends. The service was warm, the food was always great, and the staff helped you choose and checked in during the meal. That's all gone now. No one greets you when you walk in, and there's no clear system. After I asked, a busser told me to pick any table, so I sat outside and waited. No server ever came, but a busser eventually dropped off some condiments. That was it. I saw the QR code, but the ordering process didn't work. After asking again, I was told to go wait in line at an ordering station. This time I was told I could pick another seat inside, from a particular section near the front. When my drink arrived, the manager didn't know who it was for. The food was mediocre. No one checked in, though bussers were quick to clear plates. I watched another guest walk out after being ignored. They've clearly cut servers to reduce costs, but they've also cut out the experience. I won't be back, but I'll remember when it was worth coming. read more

Allllllllllmost 5 stars! I don't love the "app dining" scenario with no "server". I have dietary restrictions and you have to flag someone down if you need anything because there are NO CHANGES in the app. Unfortunately we never saw a person (we were sitting outside) so we just ordered. I normally substitute the English Muffin for Hashbrowns on the bottom as I am Gluten Free. But, just had to take the English Muffin out and waste it- which I super hate doing! All in all, it was good though. The food was good. Started my eggs Benedict before I took the picture but it was good. And the potatoes were yummy too. I'd go back but I'd make sure to talk to someone before I ordered so I don't have to waste food. read more

Blu Jam Cafe - Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is not a full service restaurant. There is a QR code menu where one pre pays, including tax and tip. One can also opt to walk up to the counter, order, pay and then find a table. Food was brought promptly. My cobb salad was tasty. I especially liked the crispy bacon! My friend ordered the Chilaquilas and she said it was good! She also ordered a latte and it was presented with a nice drawn foamy heart. The noise level is quite loud due to the high ceilings and glass walls. Check in on Yelp, and as of today, you get a free Ginger Shot per guest! You can also CHECK IN on the Yelp waiting list ahead of your arrival so you don't have to wait. We walked in around 1pm on a Sunday and didn't have to wait,but once we sat down, a lot of folks walked in. This is a breakfast/lunch spot on the street level of an office building, facing Wilshire. Metered street parking. The average cost per person is around $25. read more

Bottom Line: Probably a tiny bit inferior to its original Sherman Oaks counterpart, Blu Jam Cafe still offers a pretty darn good breakfast menu. I admit the crunchy French toast is one of my favorite breakfast items in the Los Angeles area. I ordered it to go. That was a mistake. Mostly because the burden of its presentation falls squarely on you to dress up the French toast. Blueberries and strawberries were sided out. The vanilla bean paste was also portioned on the side. I wanted everything 'on.' Also the restaurant foisted the vanilla paste as an only option and basically told me you shall not be permitted to consume this with syrup. That's unfortunate. As I believe both kinda work. The French toast was cooked pretty well. Had a crunchy exterior, and a moist, spongy egg material just as I like. However, I noticed there was way less crunch coated on the toast. I think this might be in part due to take-out, but who knows. Overall 3/5 read more

My friend made reservations for us, and we were sat immediately upon arriving. It actually wasn't packed but we were glad we had reservations just in case as this place is known to get really busy. I love the open seating both indoors and outdoors. I love the ability to order and pay online from your table and have your food and drinks brought out to you. It doesn't seem like a full service waiter situation but we didn't have any problems getting anything we needed during our breakfast. The food was fresh and came out pretty quickly. I especially loved the hash brown potatoes. They had the perfect crunch and flavor. The fresh orange juice was also delightful. Overall it was a satisfying breakfast experience. read more

The ambiance was really nice! It's an interesting set up, you order online and pay for your food or you can go up to the counter order and pay. You really don't see your server throughout the meal. When our food came the servers were confused on where to go and a few times they brought other tables' food towards us and we had to let them know it wasn't for us. The crunchy French toast what they're known for was average. Really needed more sweetness even with the icing(?) it was pretty bland. My Salmon Lox Benedict was also mid in terms of flavor but the potatoes were great! My Rose Matcha Latte was also really nice and I could taste the rose. read more

The classic Blu Jam Cafe is a must stop, for their French toast! Their crunchy French toast is the perfect breakfast platter to start of the morning. Topped with delicious fresh berries! The chilaquiles plate is unique, packed with explosive flavors. Interestingly enough, we did not have a waiter to take our orders, instead you order online via QR code. Because of this feature, I felt that the service was faster than the traditional server. Needless to say an amazing place to come to! read more

This restaurant is a very popular brunch spot and they have multiple locations. This place was very big and spacious compared to their other locations. There's a QR code on the table where you have to order and pay online beforehand. I got the salmon Benedict and a matcha latte. Salmon Benedict was delicious but the star would be their potatoes. It's diced into smaller pieces which makes it crispier. There's no private parking lot so you would have to find street parking. Overall a good experience and great food. read more

I chose this place because i heard about that a lot ,I recommend it to my friends and we gather there last week! It was so hot there.There is no A.C i believe we told them and they don't care !

We ordered the Brunch Burger and Brunch Carbonara, with a french press. The food didn't taste bad, per se, but it was very bland. It's a shame because the space is very cute and they do seem to put a lot of effort into presentation. Just hard to justify going back when the flavor isn't there. I was a fan of the streamlined online ordering and payment feature with QR codes on the table. Despite that, service was pretty slow even though it was pretty empty. Our coffee didn't come out until we were halfway through our food. The staff was very friendly regardless. read more
