    Leno. Poppyseed cake
    Calli Y.

    Cute location in the middle of some office buildings so you would never know it's here unless you looked it up. I like their location down in SJC which is kinda far so it's nice to have a closer location. Sandwiches, salads, desserts, a little bit of everything. They also validate parking which is good. I've really like their corn elote and this time I wanted to try their new lemon poppyseed cake. It was very light and refreshing. I almost wish there was more lemon curd. SYOY!

    Churro latte  Chocolate chip cookie

    The coffee was super good and the cookie was to die for. The interior was very clean and it looked like a nice place to do work or study! The outside was very nice as well outside and indoor seating. The service was good and fast. The only thing that was kind of a hassle was the fact that you have to get a ticket to validate after but other than that was super good!

    Focaccia
    Yurie H.

    Have come here a couple of times but the food is solid and not horribly expensive. Ellie table is located in a business structure, parking is validated with purchase of food. Today I got the focaccia turkey sandwich and my husband got the salad. Focaccia was toasted and warm, like how they stuffed it with plenty of turkey, salad was fresh and light. I've gotten the burrito and omelette here before and both are delicious. Would love to try coming here for lunch next time!

    Breakfast burrito heaven!
    Michael S.

    It's located in a trendy I was blown away by my breakfast burrito!!! The tortilla was grilled/pressed which was a great surprise. The little sausage cubes were spicy and the creamy sauce inside was great. The photos don't do it justice-- this thing is hefty! I'm a very big eater and I was stuffed afterwards. The only downside was my coffee. I ordered nitro but was served a cold brew. Regardless, the coffee was mediocre -- too watered down and flavorless. My wife's latte was really good, if that's your vibe. I'm hoping for a better caffeine fix on my next visit. The location is random and inaccessible, unless you live in the immediate area. We parked in the "20 minute parking" spots but I'm not sure what it would have cost to park in the proper lot. There is plenty of outdoor seating scattered on the campus with nice landscaping and unique architecture. People watching was really fun, with young business types in snazzy clothes pacing around making work calls. Otherwise, you can eat inside of Ellie's. If you want to have a leisurely breakfast in a pretty setting, I highly recommend it! If you're looking for an ultra quick something on the way to work, I'd pass on it.

    Chimichurri Tri Tip Sandwich
    Denise V.

    Stopped by Ellie's Table because we wanted food after picking up coffee nearby. I feel like there's been an uptick in to-go breakfast/lunch spots in Irvine that close at 3 PM and are open for limited days. Ellie's Table is located to the left when you exit the parking structure, tucked into an apartment complex lobby, with validated parking available. The menu is huge, offering a mix of made-to-order breakfast and lunch items like burgers and burritos, as well as a selection of premade sandwiches, wraps, quiches, and pastries. There are also plenty of vegetarian options. The pastry case had unique items like honey whiskey pecan sticky buns, fruit danishes, berry crostatas, thick lemon poppyseed and carrot cake slices for only $5 (a crazy steal!!), and a variety of quiches, wraps, and salads. Prices across the board were surprisingly reasonable, especially considering today's economy. Almost all made-to-order dishes were under $16, which is a rare and welcome find. We ended up ordering and trying the following: *Elote Wrap: Refreshing and flavorful, with sweet corn, avocado, and pico. Not dry at all. *Bacon, Egg, Scallion & Pepper Jack Cheese Burrito ($8.50): great deal and came with tasty salsa verde! *Chimichurri Tri-Tip Sandwich ($15.50): had 4 thick slices of perfectly cooked tri-tip. Flavorful, juicy, and generous. *Ham and Swiss Cheese Croissant ($8) - Flaky, huge (hence the pricetag), and satisfying. *Kouign Amann ($5.50): Easily the best purchase. An absolute standout. Freshly torched sugar on top made it feel like a crème brûlée hybrid. Loaded with custard, silky, and not overly sweet. Would come back again just for this. The outdoor seating area is beautiful and serene, with the low-hanging olive trees and boardwalk with plenty of tables. Service was friendly and helpful, with staff giving us time to explore the menu and offering great recommendations. Everything was great and there are so many more things I want to try here. I'll definitely be back!!

    Ellie's Burger Soggy Lettuce

    The coffee here is pretty good, my boyfriend picked up their Churro Iced Latte for me before so I expected other coffees of their's to be just as good. I went in today to pick up coffee for the both of us and figured I would order food too since it was around lunch time. I was greeted when I walked in and took a minute to look at their printed menus by the entrance. I ended up ordering their Ellie's Burger, Small Iced Tiramisu Latte and Large Iced Mocha Latte with their seasonal Strawberry Cold Foam. While the Tiramisu Latte was good as we've had it before. The Strawberry Cold Foam lacked flavor after the first sip, tried the Mocha through a straw to see how it was by itself and it was thick with a slightly powdery finish. I know I'm not the typical customer walking in since I was dressed more casually but when my to go food was ready the barista saw I had 2 drinks and was picking up the food by myself I had to follow to the counter to get a bag to avoid balancing everything on my walk back. I had seen other customers prior be given their food in a bag without question, so this part was a bit unexpected when I was handed a white box while already having 2 cups. When I finished my short walk back, I opened the container and the burger was apart with a soggy bun that couldn't be peeled off the bottom of the box without compromising the whole thing. It being open faced I could see the slightly wilted lettuce and the patty was folded to one side of the bun. It had so many sweet pickles on it with maybe a teaspoon of the avocado mash, all that could be tasted was a sickeningly sweet flavor pickle flavor. I was hoping for a bit more considering how many people have raved about this place, but the experience overall was unexpectedly underwhelming and a bit of a disappointment.

    Came here in the afternoon to grab items off their holiday menu. They have a parking structure and they validate for 2 hours, so parking was not an issue. They also have a few tables here as well for seating; there were plenty of tables when I visited (and even more seating outside!) I ordered a peppermint mocha that was on their seasonal menu which was made in a timely manner. It wasn't on the sweet side which was perfect but I really enjoyed the bits of candy cane they threw on there. I also got their peppermint macaron that had even bigger chunks in less square area - I actually loved the minty flavor of this the most. It's a nice laid back area here - I kinda like the plaza that Ellie's Table is at!

    Tarragon Palm Sandwich x 2
    RACHEL G.

    The Tarragon Palm Sandwich is SO good ! The cheese roll is SO fresh & soft, and impaired with a nice hearty portion of the chicken salad makes for a great little snack or you can get two of them to make a nice little lunch ! I also ordered the pasta salad which has a bit of sweetness. Pricing was very reasonable for the quality/taste !

    Nitro cold brew with sugar-free vanilla syrup
    Ashley R.

    I got a nitro cold brew with sugar-free vanilla syrup. I'm glad that they offer sugar-free syrup. I thought that it had a pleasant flavor, although it was not super stand out. because it was a nitro cold brew it was pretty smooth and not as deep in coffee flavor as some other cold brews. I thought it was interesting that they roast Wilson beans for their cold brew. I've been to Wilson's coffee shop and I'm not super fond of it. I was surprised i enjoyed this coffee as much as i did considering it was wilson's beans. My grandparents both got decaf Americano. my grandmother added Stevia to hers and my grandfather drank it black. They both liked them. I really liked all of the decorations on the wall. It felt upscale yet rustic at the same time. it's located in an upscale business plaza. It feels very corporate, but the establishment itself felt homie. it was on the pricey side. They accepted contactless payment. The staff were all very helpful . they answered my questions and we're friendly and smiley . There's not a restroom in the establishment, but there is one around the corner in the office. It was easy to find parking. Overall, I had a good experience and would love to return it and try more menu items if they invite me back.

    Sundried Tomato Blt
    Aubree K.

    I visited Ellie's table today and enjoyed my experience. However, I will mention that parking and finding the restaurant is not easy. You will need to park in the parking structure and the restaurant is attached to an office building. The food, on the other hand was delicious. I ordered the sundered tomato BLT and enjoyed it. The bread was toasted perfectly in addition to thick slices of bacon. I also ordered a latte (not pictured), the latte was okay, not anything that stood out to me, but an average latte. The service was quick and the overall atmosphere was pleasant.

    Breakfast burrito
    Mo L.

    Staff is super nice in the little cafe with cool outside areas to lounge and eat. Food is not exceptional but quick and filling. Mostly grab and go as it is a corporate setting I had a burrito that had a big amount of egg with umderwelming amount of bacon and cheese. Drip coffee fresh but not strong, very mild roast I would recommend just dropping a n getting a drink and on a hot sunny day enjoying the courtyard amount the tall corporate buildings

    Love both their butter and chocolate croissants here, it's fresh and always served hot.

It advertises itself as a more premium pastry brand and I don't mind paying a little more for quality pastries. For this last trip, it sorta fallen off a cliff for me. I got their cream puffs this past weekend and I was gravely disappointed. It had labeled a use date of 7/14/26 when I bought it on 7/11/26. I tried it with my wife today on 7/13/26 and the cream tasted sour... Wait, what? How??? Why??? We wondered whether it was a "new" flavor or something and realized that no, this just went bad. Granted that you are paying $12 for 6 of these, for $2 each puff this is not really acceptable at all. Sure, I called the store and they refunded me this purchase. By letting them know that they should probably throw away the rest of this batch, will this happen? The store clerk told me so, but who knows? The fact that you have to question premium stores really puts a sour taste in your mouth. It does make you wonder whether to come by again in the future or not. And that's on top of whether to trust any of the labels they provide or not....geez...

Only recently was I able to visit and try their croffles and other sweets. Did NOT know that this was inside the H Mart food court in Diamond Jamboree. Parking is horrendous and the driving there is horrendous as well. Probably the easiest and least horrifying option just to automatically default to is to just park in the overflow lot right next to the plaza. There's no indicator for the parking garage so on a particularly busy day, you can head all the way to the top, find nothing and navigate through the hell crowds trying to leave. Ambiance is a very casual, counter order business in the food court. There's seating there, but we ate really close by. Definitely something you have to eat immediately or the texture will not be optimal or it might get soggy. We got the tiramisu croffle and they toasted it and put it together for us there. The lady working there packed it up nicely in a to go box and we got some cookies (regular ones and almond crisp ones). It's a bit sweet, but they're dessert pastries so that makes sense. Goes great with a brewed cup of tea. Croffle had a nice semi-chewy texture and the tiramisu flavor added a bit of a coffee taste to it. Good balance of the cream and croffle. The cookie wasn't too bad either. Overall not a bad to go dessert spot.

The bavarian chocolate cream is a fun decadent pastry if you're into chocolate- comes with so many chocolate chips. The cheese bread is also a go-to for me if I'm in a savory mood- it's exactly what it sounds like, cheese and bread but who doesn't love those two things? Egg katsu sandwich is good if you're looking for something more substantial. The strawberry shortcake I've tried here was also good, but I did pick it up near their closing so it felt a little dried out. Definitely would recommend coming here earlier in the day for fresher and better selection of pastries!
