This review is based on three different visits over the past couple of months. Flipper's is fairly new to the neighborhood I live in, and they're a welcomed addition to the Fairfax District in West Hollywood. Please see the picture of the menu to get a full description of the meals I've eaten. First up was the "Two Eggs Any Style." I ordered scrambled eggs with bacon and the portions were good for the price. For me, the bacon wasn't very crispy and a little too greasy, but it tasted good enough. This meal comes with a salad, with a tasty dressing; avocados, tomatoes, and two tiny pieces of toast. I ordered a side of fries ($9, yikes) that were perfect. Crispy and very warm. Next visit I had the "Mushroom Omelette." It was a good size omelette and was hot upon delivery. I chose the bacon which again was tasty, but not crispy and too greasy. To compliment my meal, I selected the fries and toast which came with my meal. On another visit, I selected the "Croque Madame." This was really good and a decent sized portion. It arrived very warm and tasted great. I tried the Home Fries with this meal, and I was disappointed. They were overcooked and cold. I should have ordered the fries as those are great. I had a side of a Japanese style "Strawberry Banana Pancake" and it was very flavorful and delicious. The pancake also had blueberries inside. The staff is very friendly and helpful with any questions with the menu. My only complaint with two of the three visits is having to ask for refills of coffee, butter for the toast, extra napkins, etc. Unfortunately, on each visit no one came back to check up on us after the food was dropped. Not a deal breaker and I'll continue to eat here, but the service could be elevated a bit. Limited free parking in front or plenty of metered parking on Fairfax Avenue.
Great neighborhood gem! We've been several times already! and I keep wanting to go back to try all the dishes. The food tastes great and presentation matches the menu photos. Every staff memeber we've experienced are friendly, [[HIGHLIGHT]]It has a large patio and plenty of outddoor seating most of the tables and seats are spread out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The biggest fav and plug is it's dog friendly![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]But my only request is to better keep the ground cleaner. 2nd time I noticed the ground had debris and looked dirty, therefore I don't care to leave my pup on the ground in some areas[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].
Visually perfect. See attached. So misleading. Chicken very over fried, meat hard to discern from dry bones. Special syrup so sweet it was inedible. Made me think abt how good the chicken and waffles are at yardbird. If this is the thought running thru my mind at Flipper's... not a good sign. The husband, of his eggs benny, said "the egg, ham, salad, etc. was delicious, but pancake base is v dry. The hollandaise, not the biggest fan. Tastes v off." I will never, ever be back.
Surprised that there wasn't a wait for a Friday. We ordered and everything came out in a timely manner. All the sides were really good (especially the hashbrowns), the pancakes on the other hand were okay. I've had soufflé pancakes before at another restaurant and I feel like I was basing my idea on how it would taste on those pancakes. These pancakes were moist and didn't really have flavor so I didn't really like them. The maple butter is different but I think I can do without
I would not wish any breakfast companion in the world but you. Without further delay let's begin this spectacular review. Flipper's is a popular local breakfast spot in WeHo that offer a breadth of items. It is located in a tiny plaza on Fairfax avenue. From Japanese style soufflé pancakes to chicken 'n waffle to burgers and fries and toasts etc. We came as first time customer and arrived on a late sunny morning. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Its exterior bldg has a vibrant yellow that really stands out on the street.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Interior and exterior atmosphere were relaxing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had a Fruit Pancakes and OJ. Both were absolutely delightful. Pancakes were soft and fluffy and its fruits were fresh as well as my OJ. A young white female staff was affable and warm. Service was spot on albeit depends on what you order. For instance, soufflé pancakes take ~20 mins to make. It's just how they're made. Prices were fairly marked. Parking lot and street metered parking are available. Collectively, it is a nice little breakfast spot with instagramable food. ;D Lol. Overall, I bloody enjoyed their pancakes! I recommend them.
First of all, let me just say that I'm a native Angeleno in case that matters to you (it should). I'm not new to the brunch lifestyle. And, I'm a repeat customer at Flipper's, which says a lot. I rarely return to a place unless it deserves my time and money. Flipper's definitely does! Flipper's is a neighborhood gem and is always such a great experience. The soufflé pancakes absolutely live up to the hype. They're fluffy, light, and somehow still rich and satisfying without feeling too heavy. The presentation is beautiful, and the food actually tastes as good as it looks, which isn't always the case with trendy brunch spots. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Flipper's has a Palm Springs vibe: bright, stylish, and relaxed, with a fire pit(!).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And, the staff is generally kind and attentive. I also appreciate that the menu has a good balance of sweet and savory options: I've ordered and highly recommend: the Croque Madame, Fried Chicken & Truffles, 2 Eggs Any Style, Chicken & Waffles...and, of course, the Fresh Fruit Soufflé Pancakes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Flipper's is the kind of place that feels fun for a solo coffee date, brunch with friends, or taking out-of-town guests.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've never had a wait, but I tend to pop in during non-peak hours (mostly weekdays). Flipper's is one of the few Instagram-famous spots that actually delivers.
The soufflé pancakes are such a yummy delicacy! I came as a solo diner and got seated immediately at the bar. My pancakes were ready in a shorter time than my waitress expected which was a nice treat. I was given maple syrup but honestly these are great without any syrup so I didn't even need it! My onlyyyy critique is that the chicken i ordered on the side was meh. Overcooked and tough chicken bites that were hard to eat. I could've gone without ordering the chicken bites. But the soufflé pancakes were great!
The food and vibe was top notch! We were seated immediately as we arrived to our reservation. Parking was bit tedious as I had to park a block away, but the restaurant is located in a plaza with some of its own parking. Our server was fantastic and accommodating. Our food came to us exactly as we ordered and in a timely manner. We also got a side of chicken and breakfast potatoes afterward and it was delicious. I would definitely return, my friend and I will definitely be returning and recommending Flipper's to our friends and family. Thank you for the amazing breakfast!!
I had a nice brunch at Flippers. Sat outside and the vibe was really laid back classic brunch place. They are most known for their fluffy pancakes, but I was in more of a savory mood so I got their mushroom, spinach, & cheese omelette with toast, bacon, and hashbrowns. The eggs were super fluffy. Loved the hashbrowns they were extremely crispy just the way I like them. I asked for the bacon well done which they also honored and I appreciated that. Service was a bit slow and inattentive. One of our orders came late and did not arrive until we asked our waitress to check on it for us. But despite that still had a yummy meal. Would come back again for a small group brunch. Next time, I would definitely come with a sweet craving and try one of their fluffy pancakes!
Absolute charmer. Wonderful variety and tastes are found at Flipper's. We thought to come in for the lemon-ricotta pancakes, but ended up going in a different direction. How Hollywood. Technically, this is West Hollywood, but wherever you map it, Flipper's is definitely worth visiting. The mushroom spinach cheese omelette has many ways to customize: pick a protein plus a few other options, and you're set. The lox was a slight upcharge, but man, they loaded it up nicely. This is one packed, flavorful omelet. Recommend the home fries, too (or choose salad). Homefries have a bit of a kick: they are cubed, not greasy, and a great complement to the omelette. Sourdough toast to round things out. A ton of food for $18. Note on the coffee: Bottomless, and really good. I swear there were maple syrup notes to the black coffee. How pompous to say, fine. Still, that flavor was subtle (maybe even subliminal), and had a special quality to it. Also tried the Chicken and Waffles. Big win. The dark meat is moist and covered in a crispy breaded layer that is delicious and very easy to eat. Love the maple butter syrup, and the house special: whipped strawberry butter. I thought both of those additions (served on the side) would be too much for me, but I really liked them both. If that doesn't suit, you, each table has its own regular maple syrup. A ton of food for $20. The waffles are served kind of soft - almost cakey. Though flavorful, I prefer a bit of a crunch to my waffles, but no complaints. And, since I took home almost half of my order, they got some crunch when warmed in the toaster. For scientific purposes, we tried an order of their soufflé pancakes. Officially, Flipper's Pancake. Lovely, eggy, light and a tad sweet. Yum. Though there are many other varieties available (such as Fresh Fruit or Macha et al), I wanted to get a baseline first - and it was delicious. The whipped cream served with is a cozy complement that is so good. They fall apart easily (use the recommended two-fork method). Service was great. Outside is preferable as you're far enough from the street, and the air is good. Inside seems a bit loud, and it bit too cozy. Nice tunes playing on the patio, just loud enough to still have a conversation. A handful of parking spots off Fairfax on premises. Or, street parking. So happy to find Flipper's! 4.5 Stars.
The best soufflé pancakes outside of Japan! Such an excellent breakfast spot -- it's well worth the drive to Fairfax from LAX. You can't beat the flavor and consistency of these pancakes. The restaurant has a bright yellow theme, with both indoor and outdoor seating, makes the whole experience feel cheerful and lively. Service can be a bit slow since the pancakes take about 20 minutes to prepare, but they're absolutely worth the wait!
We sat outside in the patio as the restaurant is on the smaller side. I missed the soufflé pancakes in Japan and these were soooo yummy 10/10 for sure! I literally ate everything on my plate! The cream is just enough sweetener for the pancakes no syrup needed! Fresh fruit and tadaaaa! My sister n-law had the egg Benedict and she dates it as 10/10. A hot pot of tea and cold coffee to the order and done deal! Everything was perfect! I highly recommend to park around the area and walk as there is limited parking space in the restaurant. We went after the whole morning rush so it was nice and sunny not too crowded. A must try for sure!!!
Review Insights
Came here on a sunny Sunday afternoon and was immediately attended to by a server, so having no wait is a huge plus. After ordering, the food only took around 10 minutes to arrive. Another plus! Then I tried their matcha pancake and those pluses grew exponentially by 5! So at this point, with variable x = Flippers, the experience I had with the restaurant with those three conditions can be summarized by the equation of (x * 2) ^ 5, peer reviews desired. I also had the Green Tea Cheese Foam and Flipper's "Burger". The Green Tea Cheese Foam was a little too bitter for me, but I really ordered it because I wanted the cheese foam, so it wasn't exactly a disappointment since the cheese foam was, in fact, cheesin'. The Flipper's "Burger" was okay. The main protein was fried chicken, and it was a little bit bland to me and lacking the crunch that I normally expect from fried chicken. I added the quotation marks around burger because when did we start calling chicken sandwiches burgers? Isn't it only a burger if beef is the main protein? Anything else and it's just a sandwich, right? Right?! That being said, the Green Tea Cheese Foam and the "Burger" is probably not something I'd order again. But the Matcha pancake...that Matcha pancake was heavenly. It was so fluffy I thought I was eating a cloud. You know how the cuckoo bird from the Cocoa Puffs commercials is like when he gets a taste of the cereal? Yeah, that was me. Spinning eyes, hallucinations, all that jazz. The red bean paste and matcha cream made it even better. Felt like I was in another dimension eating that pancake. Or maybe I was just having a trip from a spiked pancake? Unlikely. Then again I've never done drugs so I wouldn't know what it's like. To wrap it all up, if you have to get anything from here, definitely get the Matcha Pancake. read more

Loved this place! I had bookmarked Flippers since it came to Fairfax and finally had an opportunity to do brunch on a sunny Saturday in January. Mind you, the parking lot is micro and only fits a few cars, so be prepared to look for street parking. Even close to the lunch hour, my boyfriend and I were seated immediately having the choice of a table inside (it's too crowded being so close to the serving counter) or dine al fresco, which we opted to under the heaters. Take your sunglasses, it's bright! But that's the vibe on beautiful, sunny days. Our waiter was great and brought us the classic flippers pancakes to start -- it's their signature dish, and a must! We gobbled it down - so light and fluffy, you can practically inhale it! Next, we had our delicious entrees which didn't disappoint. Mine being the two eggs any style being the very heart chicken and waffle! Theres so much to try here, it's worth coming back to the patio here and we will! read more
Ok, here's my confession. I live walking distance to this spot and have heard so many great things but am only now trying it. No idea what took me so long because it's legit! The first win for me is the menu options. You've got me at chicken and waffles plus soufflé pancakes. The cream that comes with those should be an entree. The chicken and waffles portion is nothing less but hefty. I was surprised to get not one, not two but three fried thighs! Yum! If only other places could deal like this. There tends to be a line on weekend mornings but nothing that should stop you. They have indoor and outdoor seating but there's something energetic about sitting under their bright yellow umbrellas. Really just screams WeHo. read more

We got here pretty much when they opened on a weekend, no wait and no problem finding parking. I got the mocha, which was amazing, some eggs and their soufflé pancakes, honestly the best breakfast we had in LA. Inside area is small, but a decent amount of seating outside. Service was prompt. read more
Flipper's is officially my new favorite brunch spot! The restaurant itself is spacious, with most of its seating outdoors, making it perfect for soaking up the LA sunshine. Inside, the seating is limited but cozy. Now, let's talk about the food & drinks--they're incredible! I started with an iced caramel latte, and it was so good! It had a unique flavor that really stood out. The soufflé pancakes were cooked to perfection: light, fluffy, and absolutely delicious. They practically melt in your mouth! I also tried the hashbrown patties, and wow, they did not disappoint. I'm a French fry lover, but there's something truly special about their hashbrowns--crispy, flavorful, and just amazing. We also tried the chicken and waffles which were also pretty yummy! As I looked around the restaurant, I noticed there was not a single food item that didn't look appetizing, and that's saying a lot! Service is fast and friendly. Parking is limited in the parking lot but you are sure to find a meter on the street. Flipper's is definitely worth a visit! read more
My first time, my kids went recently to one in Japan. They said the food is equally great in both places. I tried the Fruit soufflé, it was tasty and amazing. The "Bene" was awesome. The best dish I think was the Strawberry pancake. All dishes should be shared IMO. Eating one type of dish might be a lot for one person, plus I love sharing. The breakfast sausage was meh, reminder me of frozen Costco, just air fried. The coffee was pretty bad also, luke warm at best. IMO McDonald's has a better brewed coffee. Majority of the seating is outside, come prepared. Only one bathroom. Clean restaurant. Good wait staff. Fried chicken was okay, was better with dipping sauce. I can only imagine the normal parking anxiety. We went early on Sunday before churches let out. read more

The food was absolutely divine, I ordered the soufflé with fresh fruit. My husband ordered the pancakes with fresh fruit. It came with strawberries, bananas, blueberries. And then we ordered an extra breakfast because we like eggs and potatoes and bacon with our meal so it came roughly about $67 but it was totally worth it and that included orange juice The service was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience was cute yellow umbrella/canopy so I made it bright and cheerful not a super big place boardwalk seating outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a little bit of seating inside but definitely worth it and we will be back.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I've got to tell you...I underestimated Flippers. I said "what else can you do to pancakes?"...apparently a lot. This souffle business is no joke... I went on a random Monday so there was no wait but I anticipate this place is booked and busy because the food is THAT good. My friend and I decided to split a pancake and a savory dish and wanted to try a souffle pancake because it's a specialty and where else are you going to get it? We were worried about something like the caramel banana chocolate being too heavy so we went with the fresh fruit pancake and HOLY COW. It was light and sweet without being too overpowering. Syrup wasn't necessary because the maple cream does the job perfectly. I was hooked after the first bite and can't wait to go back and try another combo. Mind blown by souffle pancakes. We also got the eggs Benedict, they allowed us to mix flavors so we got one salmon and one ham and they were done so very well. Perfectly cooked egg, delicious hollandaise and it didn't register that it came on their pancake until after we got it (it says so on the menu though, we can't read) and it was such a nice surprise. The whole dish worked extremely well together. Absolutely no complaints. The food was spectacular and came out quickly. We also got a side of hashbrowns and avocado which complimented our dishes, plus coffee and a passion fruit green tea. With this we spent around $40 each which is pretty good to me. Service was great, no complaints and the vibe was great with an awesome 2000s throwback playlist. 5 stars, definitely going back. LOVED it. read more

First time here and I was so excited for breakfast. Hashbrown were crispy , pancakes were super fluffy , eggs Benedict's were very amazing. The chicken and waffles were the best I've ever had. The chicken wasn't over breaded , and not dripping with oil . The waffle itself completed everything . The service was great and fast . And I did like how clean the restaurant was. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I really wanted to love this place because it's super cute inside and the vibe is honestly nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The flippers pancakes looked AMAZING both online and in person -- super fluffy and aesthetic -- but unfortunately they didn't taste good at all. They had this oily flavor, almost like you could taste the oil they used to cook them. They weren't sweet and didn't really have much flavor, which was disappointing because they looked so good. After that, I ordered the eggs Benedict with bacon and that was actually really good. Probably the best thing I had there. The milk tea though was super unsweetened and bland -- I expected way more flavor. The service was just okay. They were kind of rude for some reason, which made the experience less enjoyable. Overall, nothing really stood out to me in a great way, especially for the price. That's why I'm giving it a 2/5. It wasn't the worst, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype for me. read more
Everything was delicious. We joined the waitlist and were seated immediately upon arrival. There's ample patio seating and limited indoor seating. Our server was attentive and food came out timely. 5 stars Soufflé pancakes-fluffy and soft with a generous amount of whipped cream. 5 stars Chicken and Waffles-juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside with just the right amount of flavor. Bonus caramel syrup. 5 stars-breakfast burrito bursting with flavor. 5 stars-2 eggs with choice of smoked salmon, salad, avocado, hash brown, and juicy cherry tomatoes. Worth the wait. read more

Our group of 5 joined the waitlist early and had a bit of trouble finding parking so we got there around 45 minutes after joining. We were seated after a 15 minute wait and the server apologized for the wait as they thought it'd be a shorter wait but the table we were waiting for was socializing after eating. Service was wonderful, fun and helpful. I did not use the bathroom but one of my party did and they mentioned it was very clean. The souffle pancakes were the main reason we came and they definitely satisfied our cravings. We shared four dishes amongst five people so that we could continue our food tour without being overly full. Dishes: Strawberry souffle pancake, berry souffle pancakes, chicken and waffle, maple butter souffle pancake. The chicken and waffle was paired well with the caramel syrup and strawberry butter. The chicken was crispy and waffles were flavorful. 8/10. The strawberry souffle pancake cream tasted a bit like strawberry jam and cream, it was good but the dish was a bit underwhelming with 2 pancakes, a layer of strawberry halves and some cream. 6/10. The mixed berry souffle pancakes were good and worth the extra $1 compared to the strawberry one-- it came with three pancakes and lots of fruit + some cream. The pancakes themselves were light and fluffy with an eggy taste. 8/10. The maple butter souffle pancakes were my favorite as I really enjoyed the maple butter cream, paired with the three pancakes. 9/10. Overall, I'd definitely come back again if I am craving the souffle pancakes! It was a nice and trendy spot for brunch with both outdoor and indoor seating + very friendly easygoing staff. read more
Came here around 10 AM on Saturday and we thought there would be a line because we've only been to flippers in Tokyo. I guess people have not caught on.. we split a number of different dishes. Chicken and waffles, the fruit soufflé waffles, and the blueberry ricotta pancake pancakes also added a poached egg and hashbrowns. Try it a bit of everything and enjoyed all of it. The eggs were perfect. Hashbrowns were just fair. They were sort of like the Trader Joe's hashbrowns. Fine . The pancakes were absolutely delicious and as good as it gets for soufflé pancakes, and the ricotta pancakes were likewise yummy. The waffle maker went on the fritz after we had been there so we had to have pancakes with the chicken. the white part of the chicken was too dry, but the dark part was perfect and I really did enjoy that bite. Really good seasoning on the chicken . Service was a bit slow, but it wasn't the fault of the waitress who had the whole outside area. I guess somebody was late coming to work. She truly did her best and tipped her accordingly. A great experience for three and polling everyone we said that we would all come back. read more

I had to leave home with no breakfast the other day. After the event I attended, I wanted something delicious and decadent to eat, and I made the right choice by picking Flipper's! I am an older (but extremely cool lol) lady, and "back in the day" as us original Punk Rockers of Los Angeles say, meaning in the late 1970's/early 1980's, we used to go to a place called Flipper on La Cienega to dance on roller skates as bands played in the center of the rink. It was so much fun, so I wanted check this place out due to the similar name. Of course it bears no resemblance to the place I remember, though the font of the logo looks quite like that one. But let's get to the FOOD! I ate so many delicious things - I was in HOG heaven haha! I'm attaching a photo so that you can see that a) I ate A LOT and b) the food was beautifully presented, and freshly made. More importantly, it was SO YUMMY! I think the souffle cakes (their specialty) are a great idea, and my choice of the ones with fruit didn't disappoint. This usually also comes with strawberries, but I can't eat them so they were kind enough to adjust things to my preferences. I love to eat pancakes with syrup, bacon and fried eggs over medium - so that's what I did there and everything was prepared exactly as I asked them to do it. The fruit was fresh and tasty and the plate came with a large amount of whipped maple cream which was truly TO DIE FOR! I had to eat every last drop. Let me just add the disclaimer that I, again, had not eaten a thing that day - lest you think I am totally disgusting. AND I didn't need to eat again! I want to point out, finally, that the service was excellent. I unfortunately can't remember the name of my server, but he took great care of me and believe me, I wouldn't say that if it wasn't true (see my other reviews ;). This is not an every day type of place for me, but a really good choice for someone visiting from out of town or a special craving like I had. As an FYI, I was there around 2:30 pm. They were closing while I was there but very polite about it - I didn't feel rushed until the very end but it was understandable - I'd met some people and we were talking away and in their way. They were still very kind and considerate about it. I hope it will stay in business for quite a long time - I'm really glad I found it! read more

We have been customers of this cafe since the very first day they opened, and over the time we have brought many of our friends and family here. Unfortunately, it just keeps getting worse every time we visit. The service is unfriendly, and the manager never smiles and too nervous. Recently, I reserved a table over the phone, but when I arrived at the scheduled time, the manager said she didn't know about the reservation because she hadn't been working on the day I called. Seriously? The tables are dirty and broken, the chairs are dirty as well. The menus you don't even want to touch it with grease on it and dirty. Don't wear white clothes if you're going to visit them!!! The pancake portions keep getting smaller and smaller, and today they were pale and undercooked. They used to serve a great cappuccino, but today what we got was just milk foam. Sadly, when cool place like this becomes so ugly and unprofessional. We don't want to come back here anymore, unfortunately. read more
I liked being able to sit outside on a gorgeous day and they have nice bright decor. The food was not bad but also not great. The soufflé pancakes are okay. The strawberry one is much better than the caramel banana one, but both are just okay. The eggs Benedict was really basic as well, and I thought the lettuce on there was an interesting choice. Our server was very friendly though! read more

Food was very good. Amazing actually. Drinks were fantastic. The pancakes were some of the best pancakes I've ever had. Service was fantastic. The place was very nice! I can't wait to go back and try other things on the menu. read more
Lots of outdoor seating and staff was very friendly. The cream on the pancakes were good and not too sweet. The pancakes itself were not as soft as others and had an "eggy" aftertaste. I understand how the soufflé pancakes are made, but was not impressed for the price. The price was a little pricy for the quality, but they had other menu items that looked interesting. We came on a weekend with a group of 3 and a dog at lunch time and did not have to wait. There is a small parking lot in front of the restaurant, but expect to find street parking instead. Their outdoor seating is large dog friendly and they offer water to the dogs as well. read more

I had fluffy a soufflé fruit pancake dish. Very filling. Dad's eggs Benedict with Ham was delicious. It's on the fluffy pancake so extra special. Lovely nice weekday lunch ambiance. Great service. The tables were all wobbly which is uncomfortable and the parking is questionable. Hot tip: if you can only block a car, it's ok cause it's probably employees car but if not, someone will ask you to move and not tow you. I'll do that next time. read more

I absolutely love this place! The only downside is that it's in LA, so the parking lot is a bit small. Also, avoid going on an extremely hot day since there's limited indoor seating. The food is beautifully presented, and I'd definitely return on a cool day It's the perfect brunch spot to bring friends before heading out to explore WeHo! read more

Solid brunch place. I had ordered the soufflé strawberry pancakes and they were decent. They were tasty but I probably wouldn't order them again. My friend had ordered the chicken and waffles and that tasted much better. The chicken was seasoned really well and had a good batter. Those two dishes also costed about the same and you get much more food with the chicken and waffles. If I were to come back I would honestly order that and split it with a friend. The cocktails were tasty. I had the yuzu mojito and it was good. I also tried the honey lemonade and that was very good as well. read more

This is second after Roscoes to pop up for WeHo chicken and waffles. Hm. I'm sorry to be blunt but...their pancakes are good, I'll say that. WeHo can't fry chicken. The waffles are just passable. If I ever see this menu item that's automatically my order. I figured as much from West Hollywood. Plenty of food though. The strawberry butter was the best part. It's just dry and bland, not seasoned and needing more grease or flavor or just something. The pancakes didn't take long to come out and those were fluffy and eggy and great. Stick to the namesake and you won't be disappointed. These are WeHo prices so apologies but can't in all honesty give five stars. Cute spot though. Bonus points for dog friendly waiter. Good luck with that parking lot, I would park in the hood if I were you. read more

We went on a Saturday mid morning, so it was very busy. We waited for about 10 minutes before we got seated. I got the Strawberry pancake, my daughter got the Caramel Banana chocolate pancake, and my husband got the Croque Madame. Of course we had to get sides of eggs, hash browns , sausage and bacon! Everything was delicious! No wonder people flock to this place. The pancakes were so fluffy, soft and yummy! This is definitely the bee's knees! read more
Finally I got to try Flipper's since I did not have a chance to go when I was in Japan! Cute store front with bright yellow umbrellas you won't miss it. Amid the heat wave in L.A with limited A.C at Flippers, we started our brunch by ordering yummy Expresso Martinis and ice water to hydrate. The food was worth sweating for! We got the Chicken and Waffle and Soufflé Pancake with Fresh Fruit. Chicken was a bit try that day but the breading and seasoning were good. Both waffle and soufflé pancake were divine! Light and fluffy. The fresh cream was not overly sweet, it paired so well with the fluffy pancake! I would go back on a cooler day and enjoy the cute outdoor seating. read more

Virtually no line on Valentine's Day morning and delicious food. I ordered the strawberry pancakes which were by far the best pancakes I've ever had in my life. The only complaint I have is that there wasn't more of it. My girlfriend ordered the croque madame which came with a more than generous serving of breakfast potatoes. Both dishes were incredible however we had to wait upwards of 25 minutes for our food to come, hence the 4 stars. Overall a great experience, and I would highly recommend! read more
Flipper's is one my FAVORITE breakfast spots to go to. I discovered them a little over a year ago and any chance I get to go, i'm GOING! they serve the popular Japanese style pancakes and every time i order them i inhale them unapologetically (they are so freaking good)! this time i ordered the hash browns (which in my opinion are waaaaay better than McDonald's hash browns and yes i said what I SAID); i ordered the eggs and cheese ( was not a fan... they didn't have cheddar cheese so i tried pepper jack, no thank you!); and my brother got the maple butter pancakes and if he could have licked the plate he would've lol! the service is quick and friendly of all the times i've went. it's usually hot as hell outside but the seating outside is comfortable and peaceful (except for the flies but hey it is outdoors so duh). i leave feeling stuffed and satisfied and it's worth every penny. until next time :)! 10/10 would definitely recommend read more

I came on a weekend afternoon around 1:30 pm. There was a supposed wait of 55 min on the yelp waitlist, but I was instantly seated upon arriving as a party of 2. Also, there is a small parking lot and some street parking available. We ordered the eggs benedict and flippers pancake. The eggs benedict came first and the flippers pancake took nearly 20 minutes before arriving. The eggs benedict was very filling with lots of bacon strips and 2 soufflé pancakes underneath. The bacon was crispy and salty, going well with the lighter eggs and sweet pancake. The small addition of fries gave a nice crispy crunch too. The flippers pancakes were some of the best soufflé pancakes I've had in LA. The top was some kind of maple syrup cream. The pancakes were incredibly soft and melted in my mouth. It was like eating a delicious fluffy pillow. Overall, the food was better than what I expected. I heard the hype about this place's soufflé pancakes and just had to try it out. The cafe is also decorated very nicely and feels like a photo spot. read more
