Went for a Birthday brunch and what fun we had! One of us had Smoked salmon crepe, I had Mango waffle, and Birthday gal had waffle and eggs! All perfect! Delicious! My favorite place for Brunch and Thai food! The presentation is always as beautiful as the atmosphere of the cafe! Never fails to disappoint and by far best Pad Thai in LA!!! For Dessert we got the Mango sticky rice with a candle in it!! This place is a Blessing! BEST THAI FOOD IN LA!!! Everyone working there is so friendly! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great music and magical environment that sparkles and great chalk art on walls[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. read more

My husband and I stopped by for lunch, and we were truly impressed. The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the fried chicken and waffles, while my husband had the tiger beef. Both dishes looked amazing and tasted even better. The fried chicken was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice, and the waffles were incredibly fluffy. The chicken had a little kick to it, which I personally loved. We also tried a couple of drinks, and the standout was definitely the matcha and guava drink--it was fantastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is located in a small plaza that doesn't look particularly fancy from the outside, but the interior is beautiful, inviting, and thoughtfully designed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's exactly the kind of place I'd bring my girlfriends for brunch. The service was excellent, friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout our visit. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we'll definitely be back. read more

Wow - I seriously enjoyed this place. From the street, it's a super unassuming spot in a tight little plaza with a tiny parking lot. But as I walked in, I knew we were in for a treat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor and vibe are very well thought out, and so chill. It makes you feel like you've entered a new favorite hole-in-the-wall spot. From the chalk style murals on the wall to the beautiful flowers displays hanging from the rafters, it made us excited for lunch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We came in to eat around 12:30 and the place was moderately busy, but not packed. Over the course of our time eating, it filled in, and most tables filled up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They had offered a Groupon, which was easy to use, and our server was helpful in steering us toward what we could use it for. The food was really excellent. We had the thai fried chicken and waffles, and the crying tiger steak fried rice, and for drinks we had the guava matcha and the chai. When I say it's good, I mean it. The crying tiger steak was like butter, and the fried rice had great texture and flavor. The sauce they served it with was definitely hot, but added heat that I could handle (for reference, I'm a medium-hot guy when at Thai restaurants - not a Thai-hot guy). The portion was great - definitely enough to make you feel like you're getting your money's worth. The fried chicken had some of the best batter I've had in LA, and the chicken itself was super juicy. They brought a kind of yum yum sauce to pair with it, which added a nice bit of extra flavor, too. Topping it off was the waffle, which was fluffy, and had a delicious almost-cakey texture to it. One of my favorite waffles ever. The drinks were also great, especially the guava matcha. If they allow for modifying the sugar level, I'd maybe go to 75%, as it was a little sweeter than I usually do for drinks, but otherwise it was perfect. All in all, we loved this spot, and hope to come back soon. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Small and unassuming, in a drab strip mall... but so much thought and care goes into everything at this restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The coffee drinks are just amazing and unique. The coffee itself is exceptional, so anything additional is chef's kiss. Fiance wanted to order two drinks, one to go. I wouldn't let him... but it was that good. (I'm partial to the salted caramel latte with almond milk. He likes the spicy Thai coffee latte with almond milk. It's fierce!) I've loved everything I've tried here, but I do prefer any dressing on the side for the crepes and salad. (If you're in the mood for a light and healthy drink, try the butterfly pea tea. It's delicious and changes color if you add lemon.) read more

I was so excited to give this place a try. Unfortunately, we weren't able to try their food due to extremely poor service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we arrived, we were greeted curtly and seated at a table, near the exit, directly in the line of sight of the bar/counter where the staff is at.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After receiving the menu, we were ignored 10-15 mins. No one offered water, asked if we had any questions, nor acknowledged us in any way despite being directly in the line of sight of the bar/counter. During this time, staff assisted other guests seated around us including taking orders from a party directly behind us but never returned to our table or acknowledged us. To be clear, there is only a total of 3 parties: a lone guy next to us who was already eating, our party and the party seated behind us. At one point, another server delivered water to the guy next to us so naturally we tried to call for his attention but were also ignored. Eventually, we left without being spoken to. Horrible experience for a place with only 3 parties on a Saturday morning around 10 AM. Mind you, there are at least 3 people behind the counter. They lack basic hospitality and for that alone, I won't be coming back nor would I recommend this place. read more

Our second time here in 3 days! We live 8 mins away and were looking for a brunch spot to take my partners sister out during her visit here. There's a parking lot attached to the storefront, and tons of street parking-- so taking your car over should be no issue. Wheelchair accessible. Vegetarian options galore-- they also accommodate GF! Colin was our bartender and was lovely-- I did their bottomless mimosas and lychee was a personal fav, tho mango comes close! Did their salmon waffle dish this round, their honey lemon dressing is on the sweeter side so I get it on the side and add in 2 over easy eggs. They've got a delicious homemade hot sauce, add it into your order! The ambiance leaves a lot to feast your eyes on, with blended artistic elements that are shared visions of the owner and her husband. What a gorgeous find! We'll see you soon, Butterfly Pea Cafe! read more

We decided to try this spot while we were in the area and ordered a few different things. The tom kah shrimp toast was amazing nice crunch on the toast and the sauce paired really well. Definitely one of my favorite dishes here. We also got the tom yum avocado toast, which was pretty good too. It had a nice combination of flavors and was well balanced. The smoked salmon crepe was my least favorite. It was a bit too overpowering with all the sauces combined, so it didn't really work for me. For dessert, we tried the mango mango and it was really good super creamy and the mango was perfectly in season. We also got a Thai tea mocktail, but that one was a little underwhelming. It didn't have a strong Thai tea flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is really cute with a floral design, which I liked a lot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server were attentive and kept checking in on us to make sure everything was good, which I appreciated. Just a heads up since it's a Thai restaurant, a lot of the dishes lean toward the sour side, so if you're not into that it might feel a bit overpowering. Overall, it's a solid spot to try, and I would come back if I'm in the area again. read more

So glad I found Butterfly Pea Cafe! Their brunch menu is so unique. I got the tom yum shrimp toast because I love tom yum soup and was curious to see how they'd make a toast out of it. I was really surprised how they did it and I think they did it well. The toast is fried crispy with bits of garlic and you can really taste the lime and pepper flavors in the tom yum sauce, which isn't too spicy. The shrimp along with all the other ingredients they used were very fresh. My boyfriend got the smoked salmon toast and I liked that they topped the fresh salmon with salmon roe. Portions run kind of small, and in the end I think my boyfriend and I could have split another plate, but we had to leave soon as we finished. Their butterfly pea flower and matcha was pretty good. It was more vanilla flavored than matcha but I liked the matcha powder they used. However, the matcha layer was a bit too frothy that the texture wasn't smooth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall I like the vibe of the restaurant. Cute decor and great music playlist to set the ambience[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I definitely want to come back and try more of their menu! read more

It's funny, I used to live in the area for years and never thought to stop into Butterfly Pea...and that's because it didn't exist yet. This is actually an extension of the Thai restaurant next door, and it's a brilliant use of the space and kitchen. The menu is thoughtfully designed, with a great selection of Thai-influenced brunch and lunch options and some unique cocktails and mocktails. The coffee creations are fantastic as well. I really have to give it up to the staff Colin and Zaira, they are very attentive and gave recommendations on what to try. I was also greeted by Jenny and her husband Billy, what awesome owners! It's a hidden gem of Los Feliz. Make sure you stop in and give it a shot! read more

Must Try asap !!! The menu is full of classic American style breakfast along with some dishes Thai influences! My personal favorites are the Mango Crepes ! It's made with FRESH mangoes! For spicy and savory I highly recommend the Crying Tiger Fried Rice and also the Fried Chicken and Waffle, which is made with lemongrass marinade. The drinks are also very good, and made with love and variety of syrups that are made in house. BP cloud milk, guava matcha and rose latte. The beans used for the coffee come from a local Roastery in the Arts District called Boxx. One of the best tasting espresso in LA. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decorations are also cute and perfect for pictures,[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and the service is very friendly and helpful (; P.S. You have to try out their BP house made hot sauce! read more

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. I ordered the Steak & Eggs Waffle with rosemary potatoes, and it was unreal -- perfectly cooked steak, flavorful eggs, crispy waffle, and the rosemary potatoes were seasoned to perfection. Every bite hit. I also tried the mango matcha and guava matcha, and both were refreshing, smooth, and beautifully balanced -- not overly sweet and clearly made with care. The service was top-tier: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. You can tell they care about both the food and the people walking through the door. If you're looking for a spot with incredible flavors, creative drinks, and great vibes, this place is a must. I'll definitely be back. read more

One of LA's best hidden gems, a must visit for Brunch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You might come the first time for the incredible food, delicious coffee and speciality drinks, whimsically cozy atmosphere or the house made syrups and sauces but you'll come back again and again for the people that make this place magical.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Owners Jenny and Billy, together for 30 years are warm and friendly and light this place up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All the art on the walls of both side by side restaurant concepts is done by Billy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Jenny will take the time to strike up a conversation and make you laugh. Colin wears many important hats but on our visit, he made us 2 lattes that were definitely something to write home about, with the touch of a true professional who cares about his work and using the house made salted caramel syrup that he makes himself. And our server Zaira, was attentive and kind. Her service was quick and she always managed to intuit our needs and make us feel welcome and at home even though it was our first visit. If you want a brunch experience you'll surely not forget, densely visit Butterfly Pea. We tried the crying tiger fried rice, the lemongrass marinated fried chicken and waffles and the rosemary potatoes. Based on what we ate, I think anything you order form this place will blow your mind. read more

This place is an absolute gem!! The staff was super friendly and very welcoming. The concept I believe is Thai American fusion. We got chicken and waffles, all the food is made in house and not coming from a Sysco box. It was absolutely delicious. Fresh squeezed orange juice and the guava matcha was fantastic. If you come here please be patient since the food is made from scratch and thus will take a little longer. Will definitely be back to try all the other items on the menu. read more

This is hands-down the BEST BRONCH spot in Silver Lake! Butterfly Pea Café is a total vibe--from the dreamy decor to the incredible food and drinks.

The service is unmatched--warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. It's the kind of place that makes you want to linger and come back again and again. 10/10, HIGHLY recommend for your next brunch/brunch-adjacent adventure! read more

The environment here is impeccable. It's so pretty, and the name perfectly matches the vibe. We were greeted upon entering, and the employee was super friendly. At one point, I believe a woman who was the owner came out to offer us additional things for our food. She recommended I try their house hot sauce. I am not one to eat spicy food because I cannot handle it, but this was the perfect mix of spice and flavor. It likely would not have been spicy to the average spice-tolerant person, but it still gave the food the perfect boost. I ordered the "Good Morning Sunshine" combo, I believe it was the name, and the setup was adorable. It came with a very berry waffle, two slices of bacon, two sausages, and eggs your style. They also served it with strawberry and maple syrup in the cutest containers ever!! read more

We were visiting LA at the tail end of a southwest roadtrip and were looking for breakfast. I'm so glad that we tried Butterfly Pea Cafe based on the strong Yelp reviews. I was intrigued by the Thai-inspired breakfasts. I had a Thai latte to start, which had the perfect level of heat from the chilies and had actual vanilla seeds in it. My wife had the butterfly pea latte which was lovely. I had the kai do fried rice for breakfast. It was amazing. There was plenty of Thai sausage which was so flavorful. The fried egg added a nice crunch and the birdseye chili-fish sauce based sauce was perfect. My wife had the tom yum avocado toast. It was plenty of avocado on a nice piece of sourdough with radishes, fried onions, and lime. She added a poached egg which was a smart call. Service was great. The chef/owner is lovely and came to chat with us. I wish we were local as we'd be regulars. read more

If you are on your way after seeing these amazing reviews and all you had on your mind are the amazing pictures of crepes and coffee, prepare to be disappointed. You will walk in, sit down, and behold!! A completely different menu, let alone a completely different restaurant. The person seating you does not let you know before seating that it's a different restaurant entirely. We stayed and ended up extremely disappointed as we were there for breakfast items and not Thai food. We decided to stay because we were so hungry, as we were seated we noticed a few others coming in and leaving because of this exact situation. The hours claimed they are open and operational, one star due to the lack of information and the disappointment on everyone's face as they had departed from this place. I want to give this place another try but I think this experience left a bad taste in my mouth. And to be honest, for great Thai food, check out Hollywood Thai. Good luck. read more
