    Tierra y Mar Molcajete
    Damaris S.

    had an amazing experience at I Love Brunch! The Tierra y Mar molcajete was absolutely delicious, loaded with perfectly cooked steak, shrimp, melted cheese, chorizo, and nopales. Every bite was full of flavor. I also ordered an horchata and a vanilla latte, and both were so good and refreshing. On top of the great food, the service was amazing, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. This place definitely exceeded my expectations, and I'll for sure be going back soon. Highly recommend!

    One of my favorite places for brunch!! The food is delicious and it's always fresh. The services is fast and they are all so kind! It is small and but they always make it work. There's plenty of street parking.

    Cancelled 15 minutes after ordering and saying in progress - no phone call to let me know the issue.

    This former Grain Cafe - Van Nuys locations is the new and latest. I Love U Brunch is very much all in the name, however for this plant-based foodie their small limited vegan menu consist of a "Chicken" Sandwich, Burrito and Tacos. None of which are labeled on receipts, especially via third party apps. They've cancelled one of my take out orders as well as deliver for me and always seem to be out or low when in person... I'm not sure what the deal is here, but as far as I can tell it's very lackluster. It looks nearly exactly the same on the outside as when it was Grain with new signage and some nice additions to the inside (vibrant colors) though it could be a cousin of it's previous incarnation off Gilmore Street/Van Nuys Blvd. Not ideal for large groups as most tables and chairs, including the patio are limited to 2 to 4 people. I will say that some of the sides are vegan friendly as well as the avocado toast (without egg) and veggie wrap when you omit the dairy/cheese. Ideal for the average everyday brunch/breakfast lunch goer for sure. Easy small lot parking or local street parking. Load of beverages and dairy based smoothies which I believe can be made vegan since they do offer both almond and oat milk for their lattes. The service isn't the best, very off beat in a off way so I'm not sure I'll give them any more chances.

    Had brunch with family on a beautiful Summer Sunday. I ordered the Birria Taco; siblings ordered chicken salad and Steak and eggs. Tasty and satisfying. Steak was fresh and tasted great! Wait staff was friendly and helped us with suggested items to try. Outside tables available; we ate outside. Everyone had a smile on their faces as they walked out of restaurant. Wonderful local brunch spot for all! We shall return. Cheers!~

    Avocado toast. Not even toasted

    I ordered over the phone and they told me 10 min. I arrive 15 minutes later only to be told to wait 15 more minutes. The avocado toast, isn't even toasted. The quality of the food is really bad. It's not even warm. And to top it off, it was over $50 for 3 items that were subpar. Really disappointed.

    I was walking and saw this place on the corner of my eye. It's kind of hidden from the main street. But it's definitely a hidden gem. Very clean inside. The girl working is very nice. And the food is excellent. I love my dish. They play music inside. It's a nice vibe. I would definitely come back. 5 stars

    The service here was great, however we ordered Arugala Salad with caramelized walnuts and none were in this salad . We brought it to the attention of the cook, they sent over granola as a supplement?!?!? We ordered a specialty drink which was supposed to have cucumber,apple, pineapple... they had informed us there was no cucumber Unfortunately all the rave reviews we saw on TikTok were a bust for us. The club sandwich was pretty ok .... That I will give them. Unique flavor .

    The restaurant is located behind Sketchers and the parking lot is very tight. I recommend street parking, as the spaces are quite narrow. Upon arrival, we were immediately seated at a booth and our order was taken promptly. I ordered the cafe de olla, which could have used a bit more depth of flavor, as it tasted closer to regular coffee, but it was still enjoyable. My mom ordered a margarita and my uncle had the carrot orange juice. The juice was made fresh in front of us and tasted delicious. The margarita was perfect, strong and definitely did the trick. They even lit it on fire, which was a fun touch. The food was good overall, though slightly on the salty side. I ordered the molcajete with chorizo and cecina, which was flavorful and came with a very tasty salsa. Service was attentive and quick throughout our visit. Next time, I plan on trying the pancakes or waffles, so I will definitely be back.

    First time trying out I Love U Brunch, nice and clean breakfast spot, I was greeted by Vivian she was really nice and welcoming. I had the El Campeón it comes with 3 flavors of chilaquiles red, green and mole along with a 6oz New York steak strip medium rare and it was delicious, to drink I had a vanilla Latte really really good. I will definitely be coming back to try out more items in the future. Gracais a todos at I Love U Brunch for the delicious breakfast.

    Chille relleno

    The food was absolutely fire! It was delicious! Cant wait to go back. It's a small hole in the wall. The food was fresh and very flavorful! I highly recommend it! We ordered the molcajete mar y tierra, quesa birria and the chile relleno!

    Was told about this place from a friend. Do yourself a favor and try this place! It's not in the best of areas, parking it tight, there's metered street parking also. It's a small restaurant, but cozy, clean, brightly decorated, nice music. Was greeted very warmly as we walked in. Service was great. The staff took their time answering any and all our questions. They serve delicious Oaxacan food. They have basic breakfast if you want, pancakes etc. I got the Oaxacan plate, chicken smothered in fresh mole sauce. Chicken was juicy, mole rich,tasty with perfect amount of heat. Rice and beans from scratch with hand made tortillas. Wife hade Oaxacan enchiladas, stuffed with Oaxacan cheese, and mole sauce. We can't wait to go back and try other dishes. I had a Jamaica and my wife had a cafe de ola and a moca coffee which she raved about. They use real good Mexican chocolate. Prices are average with today's restaurant. They also make smoothies. So good to find a delicious family run restaurant, that's clean , food made from scratch, and happy people working there. We will become regulars for sure! Please check them out.

    Classic Burrito
    Nancy T.

    Date: May 11, 2025 It's Mother's Day and I have no idea what I wanted but stumbled across this spot scrolling down grub hub. So decided to indulge since it's my special day right? Ordered two classic burritos which has the choice of steak or chicken, salsa, rice, guacamole, and pico de gallo. I got one steak and one chicken. They were both pretty good. Only thing that marked the stars down was that there was no pico de gallo, and it had beans. (I hate beans but since the description didn't mention, I didn't remove it). Also only had like a teaspoon of guac which was kind of sad. . It was quickly made which was nice because my order came way earlier than expected. Came with some chips too which was nice. Sadly some were pretty stale but the ones that weren't were really good! Perfectly salted and fried. Overall it was a nice first try. The menu looks good too so hope to try it in stores next time!

It was full and the whole parking situation with the metered is a cluster fuck. Not part of the restaurant....lol... Found street parking along Moorpark which was only a little walk to the restaurant. There was a band setting up when we arrived which could also be the reason for a full parking lot. I overheard someone saying that certain days they have live music which is perfect as it's starting to heat up. Nice dining experience with live music. We ended up sitting inside for the ac which I would have love to be outside but it was fine. Breakfast had ended but the lunch menu was quite good. I've alway ordered at the counter each visit which I'm not even sure they have waitress service with order. After ordering, a number is give where it's placed on the table. As there was a couple of us, a few dishes was had. I alway go for the mimosas deal, 3 for the price of 2. Food, the Cobb salad which I forgot to add protein to it but it was still decent. That came with their vinaigrette dressing but a side of ranch was also asked for. The Brie and turkey sandwich with a side of the macaroni salad. Sandwiches were quite tasty with the toasted bread and how everything melted together. The burger which was pretty big in size. Tasty from what I was informed and served with a side of fries. Lastly, the avocado toast with tomatoes. Simple and cheerful. Plus you need an extra side order of streak fries with ranch. Both ketchup and their avocado dip was brought out as well. Food was good, the service was great. Both with the gal at the register and the waitress bringing out the food. It's pet friendly which is also nice to have the little pup with us. Forgot, they also have a nice display case of sweets on hand. And cookies that were massive. Clearly one was had before the meal. Sweets beforehand is always a good idea. Great service, nice drink, live music and a lovely crowd. What a nice way to enjoy lunch on a Tuesday afternoon.

You order inside and they bring your food out to you. I got the Chinese chicken salad. It came out pretty quickly and had a nice presentation. It was good overall but also not the best I've had in town.

This time, we were asked to set inside instead of the patio area. This male waiter screwed up two of our orders. I asked for the same Chinese chicken salad, no chicken, just seared tuna. I received a salad full of chickens and 4 pieces of seared tuna. It was so salty I could only stomach 2 bites. I had previously asked to have the dressing on the side, but they mixed it in the salad anyway. I asked him to take it back and have them make me a salad without the chicken, just the seared tuna. Finally it was partially right, but the dressing was mixed inside the salad once again. Extremely salty. When I received my bill, I was charged for a Chinese chicken salad and an order of seared tuna. I had explained to him that I did not want the cabbage that came with the seared tuna, which is why I ordered the Chinese chicken salad without the chicken, instead use the seared tuna. The waitress we had a month ago, got it right the first time and that salad was perfect. This new guy was extremely busy, needed help, and this Mother's Day meal has tainted my memory of this place. I don't think I'll ever go back. This includes the 4 friends that came with me.

Unfortunately, this morning's brunch was disappointing.

There was nothing elevated about this toast. It was a basic bread slightly toasted, barely enough avocado spread to cover each piece of toast. Plus, the avocado spread tastes premade from a bag, not fresh. There were more onions than tomatoes. The "mozzarella pearls" was regular mozzarella that was chopped up. I added eggs on top, sunny side up, they were cold. My husband had the Three Eggs Any Style (description: Served with 2 strips of bacon and homestyle fried potatoes with onions).
