Above average breakfast good texting food. Can be a bit crowded, but I've not been to this one. I've only ordered from them.

Came here on a Saturday for brunch with my boyfriend. There were many indoor/outdoor seating but due to the weather, it was extremely windy and cold so we waited to be seated indoors. Entry way is fairly small and everyone crowded themselves indoors due to the weather. There was a QR code for you to sign in to be seated indoors and all outdoor diners were seated immediately. Large menu variety. I ordered their January special which was the breakfast panini and london fog lavender latte. We ordered our food prior to being seated which made our experience faster and smoother. The london fog lavender latte was BY FAR the BEST london fog i've ever had. Extremely fragrant, flavorful and creamy. Strong notes of lavender with the right amount of earl grey, vanilla and honey. I was HOOKED. Breakfast panini was good as well. The potatoes were crispy but bland. Food wise, everything was lacking salt but the tabanero hot sauce did justice to add so much flavor to the panini and potatoes. Panini was beautifully toasty and extremely filling. Ingredients is very healthy and clean which may be why its was lacking so much salt. Overall would love to return to maybe try their caramelized apple crepes or Norwegian eggs benedict. read more

French toast 4 stars- I don't like the vanilla sauce because it had too much milk for me. Bacon - 4 stars BLTA- 4 stars Diced potatoes- 2 stars, under seasoned, un salted, oil tastes old. Service- 3 stars read more

I love going to Blu Jam Cafe! The food and drinks are always freshly prepared and delicious. I believe that they are also locally sourced. Some of my favorites are their Eggs Florentine, their creamy lattes, delicious fresh juices and their grilled potatoes. The service is always swift and friendly. I love sitting out on their beautiful patio when the weather is nice. This is one of my "go to" places when I want some great comfort food with a cool vibe. read more

Met our son here for brunch. Sat in the dog friendly patio. No a long wait for Sunday afternoon, the food was really good too. The staff was amazing, and friendly. Waitress treated my pup to a sweet. read more

this will be a forever favorite of mine! i've been going here for years. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu and the frosted flake crusted French toast is out of this world. Must try! Just be prepared to be wait a long time if you decide to go for brunch over the weekend, I promise it's worth it! read more

A brunch favorite!! You can always count on Blu Jam for some really good food! My sister and I ordered our iced matcha duo (one with whole milk and the other with almond milk). So refreshing and as matcha lovers, we definitely approve! For food, we ordered the Simply Eggs (bacon, eggs, potatoes, toast, and jam) and Create Your Own Scramble (mushroom, tomato, onion, bacon). So so delicious! The potatoes were perfectly crispy and the bacon was very well done and tasty! The scramble was perfectly mixed and the mushrooms were so good! The jam -- speechless! It is my absolute favorite! We love how easy it is to order via QR code and how friendly everyone is. The ambiance is very casual and great for taking family or friends. Totally recommend! read more

Valley residents love Blue Jam - with good reason. Their space is bright and airy with indoor and outdoor seating. Their servers are friendly, engaging and swift with ice tea refills. And of course the food is delicious. Adding a special plug here for the really wonderful vegan options at this location. It's easy to stay vegetarian at most brunch places - but vegan is harder and sometimes impossible unless all you want is a bowl of potatoes. Blue Jam's tofu scramble and other tofu and cheese-less options really make it easy. Keep up the great work! read more

Blu Jam Cafe - Blue Jam's tofu scramble is delicious. This was the "Create Your Own Tofu Scramble" option with tomatoes, jalapeños, and soy chorizo. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sherman Oaks, California

Cute spot! The vibe is laid back. The place has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We ate outside in the covered area parallel to the sidewalk which was nice. The inside gave local diner brunch vibes--not the most aesthetic but still exudes a certain ambiance. You order via QR code which was an efficient system. I got the red bell pepper soup which I think was a special--it was delicious... the green drizzle flavor complimented the soup nicely. The Orange Whip Creamsicle was a ripoff. It cost $8! I was expecting something more, and I also thought it tasted odd... kind of like a garden. The service was great. If you're in Sherman Oaks and looking for a chill breakfast, I recommend this spot. read more

Blu Jam is always a reliable brunch spot. The ambiance is lovely with so many outdoor tables & shade, the staff is always kind and the food is delicious. Sometimes there's a wait but it usually goes faster than expected. You can now just order and pay from a QR code on the table so it's pretty quick. Some of our favorites are the migas (always suggest these over the chilaquiles), the grilled cheese which is to die for, the hangover scramble, and of course their gem, the French toast. Perfectly crunchy as it is delicious with the best vanilla sauce. They also have an excellent French press option that is pretty reasonably priced. Great spot for friends, family, dates etc. read more

Brought my friends here & they all loved it! I was just disappointed at my burrito. Since I'm vegan I made a soyrizo burrito but if I hadn't added that it wouldn't have had anything. It's my fault though, they did have a wrap or vegetarian wrap option & it would've came with more stuff. But I wish there was someone to guide than just ordering through qr code. Food was good but more attention to the table of 12 would've been nice. read more

My favorite breakfast spot in the valley!! The lattes are so delicious. The food is INCREDIBLE . And the service is great :). Most importantly, the vegan options are so delicious. I always order the vegan wrap and am so impressed by the taste and ingredients. I love to come here for my birthday and leave with a full and happy stomach. Can't recommend Blu Jam Cafe enough read more

Great service and good food as always anyone looking for an appetizing breakfast should come here

Love the outdoor seating. This was the perfect casual place to meet a friend and their parents. I like that you order and pay inside and then wait for it to come out. It was slow service but we didn't mind. Gave us time to catch up. But tables to play games or good for groups. Good food and great coffee. I'd come back! read more

First of all, the pandemic is over. Being back table service, it's lazy and disrespectful to customers. What also INCREDIBLY disrespectful is to claim that everything you have is organic and then serve goopy, cheap, log cabin maple syrup and have your waitstaff look me in the eyes and try to convince me it's the real stuff. The food was fine, but truly I'm appalled by my experience here. read more

Great food, service, and decent ambiance. I really enjoyed my breakfast and cappuccino. The chilaquiles were very good. Definitely enough to share between two people! We also enjoyed the French toast. The coconut cream was so good. Only miss was there matcha. Pretty pricey and it tasted like a cup of milk. Besides that everything else was pretty good. Cheers! read more

Food was delicious, and all ordered through an app (no server, but people bring your food to the table). 2 patios, and a small inside, but all very big dog friendly! Back patio is much quieter, from patio has picnic tables and plenty of space. We especially loved their dog menu and giant pup cups! We'll have to have her try the other items next time. read more

We went to this restaurant for the first time yesterday, and we were seated right away. Our food came out timely within 5-10 minutes. We ordered Norwegian Benedict and another type of egg Benedict, and they were delicious! The restaurant was overall clean, but i wished the food under my table, which was probably dropped from previous diners, was cleaned up before we sat down. I'd come back to this place to eat again. read more

For no server (order app or at front) their service is really good. Especially the French press guy who had his soccer kid button. They have a very small parking lot in the back. It was pretty crowded but it was a weekend. Wait to sit wasn't too long though. The food was overall very fresh and well made. I got the make your own omelet, I went the meat load out (bacon, sausage, chicken, garlic) tasted great. Friends got ranchero, Italian breakfast and a club. They are much better at breakfast I think. If you don't want your hash under your food I think you have to ask on the side. Though I kind of liked it under the omelet. Solid fast pace and popping diner! read more

Blu Jam has been a staple in Sherman Oaks for years. You used to have to wait an hour for a table and now it's pretty easy to be seated right away. I will say that I don't love the order system (everything's on your phone) The staff don't check in as much as I'd like. We waited 20 minutes after our food came to get syrup for our French toast. I also wish they served alcohol. Overall, it's a great breakfast spot. read more

Went for brunch on July 13 for my wife's birthday. We had the Crunchy French Toast and it is SO amazing!!! The staff is excellent and Wilson, the manager, is truly a wonderful person. Extremely friendly, accommodating. customer-oriented and down-to-earth. I asked him about the history of Blu Jam and he took the time to tell me about it. I highly recommend this place for breakfast, lunch and brunch!! read more

Look - the food is great. The coffee - a little too strong. The prices are steep considering the pain in the rear that their ordering system is. During the pandemic Blu Jam decided to do away with servers taking your order and implemented that whole QR code menu - order via app system. The problem is, that they've kept this system. It's highly annoying and keeps us from fully enjoying our meals with them because you can't even order a side of avocado in the middle of your meal! You have to pull out the phone - order your food - have an account if you don't feel like re-entering your CC information. AND you have to tip when you order - before you even get your drinks. So what do you do if you aren't happy with the service? It used to be my favorite brunch spot. Now it's just annoying and I only go when the one kid who fiends for the crunchy french toast promises to do extra chores. Please please please go back to using servers to take orders, Blu Jam! read more

We all like to try new places from time to time but sometimes we like to go to a place we know. We know where to go when we want a waitress or waiter that is friendly and likes to chat. Then we have our places where we want to just focus on the food that's in front of us. Not to take away from the staff here, they are all great. Everyone is super friendly and very welcoming. However once your drink is brought to you you are able to focus on who you're with. In this case my wife as usual and my French press coffee which was absolutely perfect! Coffee is truly one of the greatest things in this life. This time around I went with the Shakshuka and it was a great choice. I also added two extra sunny side up eggs to swirl the yolky goodness around. My wife went with a build your own scramble again. She added mushrooms, chicken breast, tomatoes, mozzarella, cotija and bacon with a side of mixed greens and a bowl of berries. Everything was great and as always everyone thanked us for dining to make us feel appreciated as guests. So we will be back again and again. read more

Found this Place through our friends who live in town and it's highly rated. We wanted to grab a brunch and decided to come. I'm glad we did, place is not very big but cute. Parking can be hard, they do have parking in the back but limited or street parking. My husband and I got the chilequilles which is a MUST TRY! We got the egg benefits but it was okay so next time we go will both get the chilequilles! Will return in the future and recommend it to friends and family read more

Well, I guess things have changed by a lot and so has Blu Jam Cafe!!! We use to eat here all the time and so I decided to introduce my children to this place and their famous French toast. The toast seemed like it was out for awhile because it was not hot enough, but tasted okay!!! The strawberry crepes was okay nothing special. Very pricey!!!! We sat indoor and service was okay. I guess we now pay as we leave. I won't be coming back read more

I used to come here all the time and it was great. It's been about a year or two now and it's completely changed. They no longer have waitstaff, it's all order through phone which doesn't let you make modifications like crispy or well done etc. we waited for about 30 min to be seated which is fine but when we ordered we got our food at different times. My friend was almost done with his meal before his wife's food came. Even the food was just ok - and maybe it always was just ok but I remember the staff really taking care of you here and now that's just gone. I would no longer recommend this as a good spot to go for a good meal. read more

Honestly, I came here kinda on a whim with a friend after hearing about the hype from a few other friends--and I gotta say, it lived up to most of it. We sat outside and the vibe was chill. Kinda artsy, lowkey, sunny L.A. morning energy. I got the eggs benedict and potatoes (I think?) (classic move), and they were so good. Like, actually fire. My friend got the crunchy french toast and it looked insane--like dessert for breakfast in the best way. Service was quick too. If you're into breakfast food that leans a little bougie but still feels casual, this spot hits. Good for catching up and vibing. Would def come backkk. read more

2nd time here and had an even better experience! First, want to thank the Manager Jeff for making sure we had an overall better experience this time around. Jeff, along with the other hostesses were very welcoming when we walked in and attentive throughout our time there. Prefer to sit outside, it feels more open and even though you're outdoors there's not a whole bugs or anything thankfully. We had the breakfast burrito, brunch burger, and of course their crunchy French toast. Everything was delicious. I'm always weary of breakfast burritos because I feel like some place but too much or too little of something but the crunchy be I had was so good. The potatoes were really good as well and I will always recommend the French toast - so good! Definitely recommend this location and will be back. read more

AWFUL in every way. Tipping when you order is insulting. Same complaints as others. My friend's food was brought out 10 minutes before mine. My $20+ cobb salad was pretty disgusting. The chicken was inedible. However no one checks in on the table to ask. I did flag someone down and ask for a refill which never came. It was overpriced, unpleasant and gross. read more

I was a bit disappointed today. I have been craving their huevos rancheros for months, but because of how crowded they get and their lack of parking, I haven't had time to come. I finally had some time to come today and was so looking forward to having the huevos rancheros. Unfortunately, I was completely disappointed. The food came out completely cold. The avocado was underripe. My friend and I ordered the exact same thing. The inconsistency of the amount of potatoes we each got was ridiculous. He got almost double the amount I got for the exact same price. The service was great but totally underwhelmed with the quality of food, and quite surprised because it's one of my favorite breakfast items. I would have complained but I was parked at the meter and didn't have enough time to wait for them to remake it. At least I won't be craving it now. UPDATE: in response to my Yelp review, the manager Jeff, responded to me and invited my friend and I back for a free meal to make up for our previous experience. We took him up on that offer and came this afternoon. Glad we did. Jeff reserved a table for us. We re-ordered the exact same thing, my favorite thing on the menu, huevos rancheros. It was absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh. The potatoes were nice and hot. The avocado was soft. Eggs perfectly prepared and, as always, service impeccable. Jeff, thank you for making it right. You went above and beyond my expectations. Hands down, still one of my favorite breakfast places. If you haven't tried the huevos rancheros, you really need to. Be warned, it's addicting and portion is huge. Well worth the cost. read more

Always good food, although there is a wait, once you order you forget the wait. Cinnamon crunch French toast

My friend from out of town was visiting and I wanted to take her somewhere very LA. No wait which is nice! We sat outside, it was a bit hot that day and we had some sun on us. I ordered the chicken tinga sandwich with salad. It was a pretty big sandwich that tasted good. It's a good place for a nice lunch maybe breakfast is best? read more

4 of us came for breakfast. Getting seated first and then get up again to order, not good. The vanilla lattes were delicious, but the food came late and in parts. First the salad, 5 mts later or more came my girlfriends egg omelette and then like 15 mts later came the burrito. We asked to split the burrito but it came in one piece. Oh well.... The food was good, but not crazy on how to order and the service was very slow. I don't think we we will come back. read more

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. read more

Food, service, ambience, price, wait time. Relaxing environment to spend time with friends.

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! read more

Had been to Blu Jam quite a few years ago and remember it being amazing. Well...not so much anymore. The first person you meet has on a backward baseball cap and a funky sweatshirt; that's not bad in itself, but when you are projecting a professional image then it's not so good. I don't mind doing all the ordering myself with a QR code, but don't ask for a 20% tip if we are doing your job. As for the food...$8 for a latte! A little steep! The food was not any better than I could make at home and the signature crunchy French toast was really not very good. Overall, it used to be a great place, but like most restaurants they aren't putting value on people just wanting to have great service and wonderful food without breaking the bank. read more
