Went on a Saturday morning and even though it looked really busy, we were seated in less than…read morefifteen minutes. Our waitress was very friendly and we didn't feel rushed to leave or anything. The food was pretty good! I enjoyed my nutella french toast. Only comment was that the serving size for the chicken was small on the chicken and waffles. We were sat outside and it was really nice! I recommend sitting outside if you're given the option and the wait time is the same.

I first discovered souffle pancakes while I was honeymooning in Japan back in 2019. Little did I…read moreknow that a place in Westlake Village - literally across the street from where I used to work! - had souffle pancakes of their own. I've come here 3-4 times now and the food is always fantastic. I recommend coming on a weekday if you can, because on Saturdays and Sundays I've waited over an hour to get a table during peak brunch hours (still worth it though, just plan accordingly). My wife and I usually split a savory breakfast item (usually a benedict or an omelet or something) and then share a souffle pancake. Last time we tried Bannamon and it was divine. Our friends who were visiting from out of town were equally impressed. Highly recommend!

We were looking forward to a relaxing breakfast and decided to sit outside, but unfortunately our…read moreexperience was anything but peaceful. A family nearby brought a loud toy truck for their child that continuously made an extremely high-pitched screeching and beeping noise throughout our meal. It wasn't just us who found it disruptive--several other customers also brought it to the staff's attention. Unfortunately, nothing was done, and it completely took away from what should have been an enjoyable dining experience. Had we known this was the atmosphere we were paying for, we honestly would have gone somewhere like McDonald's instead. The food itself was a mixed experience. My boyfriend ordered the loco moco and really enjoyed it. I had the pancakes, which had great flavor but were a little on the dry side. The sweet potato fries were delicious, although the ranch dipping sauce was surprisingly bland and lacked flavor. My Diet Coke was also flat. It's disappointing because the food had some strong points, but the lack of attention to the dining experience really overshadowed everything else. We understand that restaurants can't control every guest, but when multiple customers express concerns about a major disturbance, we would expect staff to at least attempt to address it. Overall, I'm not sure I can recommend this restaurant based on our experience. Note: I'd also like to mention that the service was inconsistent throughout our visit. We ended up being helped by several different servers, which made it difficult to know who was actually taking care of our table. At one point, we simply wanted to order another drink. Our server told us he would be back shortly to take our order, but he never returned. After waiting for quite some time, we eventually had to walk up to the bar ourselves just to order a drink. Between the lack of attentive service and the way the disturbance was handled, the overall experience was disappointing.

This was so delicious! And such wonderful customer service. Even though we came on a Saturday…read moreduring brunch time and the staff was very busy, every staff member we interacted with was so kind and cheerful. We had a reservation but got seated shortly after the reservation time. If you don't have a reservation, expect to wait at least 30+ minutes. The food is definitely worth the wait. We got the salmon and poached eggs waffle, the smores waffle, original, and the Benny Bought a Farm waffle. All was delicious!!!!! They have homemade lemonades as well. Their side of potatoes was also super yummy. Just a note that I requested decaf coffee and it comes from an instant coffee machine and tastes very artificial--not what you expect for the price. We asked about it and they were very kind and offered to replace it with another drink for free. We would love to come back again next time we're in Newbury Park for breakfast!

We had an 11am reservation on Labor Day, and we arrived at 10:38am, hoping to get seated early. The…read morehostess informed my partner that there were 3 parties ahead of us with reservations so it would probably be about a 15-20 min wait. We figured that's perfect since it's our reservation time anyway. 11am rolls around and we still hadn't been called or got a text that our table was ready. My partner goes back in to see how much longer, and they weren't able to provide an estimated wait time, only confirmation that we were checked in. We were finally seated at 11:25am, with sincerest apologies for the wait and first round of drinks on the house, which was a really nice gesture. Our waiter, Oscar, greeted us and immediately said his boss told him free drinks on the house, and asked what we wanted. I can't tell you how much I really appreciated not only the gesture, but the message being passed down the chain of command. I don't know how many other restaurants I've been to, where we've been told something is on the house due to a mistake and then when we get the bill it isn't. The fact that they made double sure that it was clear we would be compensated a free round a drinks was very impressive to me. Great customer service, accountability and fantastic leadership. Oscar was a great server too. He told us to scan the QR code on the menu because it had picture options, and there were items there that weren't on the menu. After each person placed our order, he'd made comments such as "that's one of my favorites!" or "I really like that one!" which was a nice confirmation that he is knowledgeable on what we are ordering. At one point, he brought our waters and said that the bartenders were still making our drinks, but after he took our order he was going to help the bartender. Again, great customer service, work ethic, and team work. Now onto the food. In terms of drinks we ordered two watermelon lemonades, a cold brew and coffee. For food, we ordered The Gravy Train, Chicken and Waffles, You Had Me at Burger, Benny Met A Cali Girl, and Waffle Cute. I really enjoyed the food. Let me tell you, every single person at our table cleared their plate. Apparently, today our table was feeling very savory, but I would love to go back and try some of their sweeter options. My personal standout was the seasoned potatoes. I'm the type of gal who needs to try a bite of my everything my partner orders and when I took one bite, I somehow finished his entire side of seasoned potatoes. They were perfectly crunchy on the outside with a good amount of potato (not too much, not too little) on the inside. I loved them. Maybe this was just bad timing on our part because it was a holiday, and we came at lunch time, but I did notice it did take a long time to receive our food. We received our food at 12:07pm. I can't remember exactly what time we placed our food order, but if we were seated at 11:25am, 45 minutes seems like quite a wait to order and for the food to arrive. I imagine if the bartender was backed up, the kitchen was probably too. Overall, I think if you don't have any plans for the rest of the day, or if they're flexible, definitely give this place a try. When I think "brunch" this is the exact type of food I want in terms of quality and quantity. I also felt like the price was fairly priced for what we received. Parking is also plentiful and free. Lastly, I was very impressed with the customer service from both management and our waiter.

My boyfriend and I had been sad that Jinky's is gone, but then remembered another restaurant took…read moreits place. We decided to grab breakfast (though at lunchtime) here this past Monday and had a great experience! We walked in and were quickly acknowledged and seated. Our waitress was very quick and efficient, and the food came out pretty fast. I ordered two egg whites, two pieces of extra crispy bacon, and one pumpkin pancake. I have been talking about the pancake ever since, because it was the best one I've ever had! It was huge and thick, and just delicious. It honestly didn't even need any butter or syrup, but of course I added some anyway. My boyfriend tried the pancake and also thought it was very good. My boyfriend ordered the chili stacker with grilled potatoes. He didn't choose the spiciest chili they have, but the one underneath it. I tried a bite and it was delicious! He really enjoyed it, and I would not be opposed to ordering it for myself in the future. I just have a tendency to like something sweet at breakfast time! We were very pleasantly surprised to see our bill at the end. Their prices are actually very reasonable. We sometimes go to a chain breakfast place which I won't name, and somehow spend almost double what we spent here. We appreciated how our waitress was quick to bring the bill and let us get out of there!

She helped us go with our potatoes extra crispy,they were in fact nice & crispy, but creamy soft on the inside. Of course Marc & Carie came to check in on us. My White Egg Omelette was delicious with the goat cheese & herbs delicately seasoning the diced zucchini tucked in. Delicious. Others in my group loved the Avocado Toast, the French Toast, Dutch Baby Pancakes, what a special dish with the Chantilly cream and fresh berries.The "Sandwich" was not just any ole sandwich, this was handcrafted with love.

Right after we were seated we were asked to get up and help move the table so they could close the accordion door behind us... okay lol. From the moment our server showed up, our entire experience shifted to being one of the best brunch experiences I've had in the conejo valley area. Our server's name was Zachary K., and he had a wonderful personality. He made excellent recommendations for food & drink. Our food was delicious and arrived within a reasonable amount of time. Zach checked on us regularly and ensured we were enjoying ourselves throughout our time at Sunrose. The restaurant has a very cute vibe and feels almost boho-beachy upon entering. They have an in-house bakery where they sell their pastries and merchandise. We will definitely be back soon

La Cereza Cafe & Bakery is one of those hidden gems that popped up on my feed, so I decided to…read morecheck it out--and I'm so glad I did. This isn't the trendy, brightly lit coffee shop that's designed for Instagram. Instead, it's a cozy little café where every drink feels like it was made with heart. As a family-owned bakery and coffee shop, they offer a delicious selection of freshly baked pastries, bagels, and cinnamon rolls that make it hard to choose just one. I ordered the vanilla latte with oat milk, and it did not disappoint. Their house-made vanilla syrup gave the latte a rich, creamy flavor that was absolutely delicious. While I was there, Mayra had just pulled a fresh batch of matcha cinnamon rolls out of the oven, and I'm so glad I gave one a try--it was warm, soft, and incredible. Located directly across the street from Basta and Honey Cup, La Cereza is easy to miss if you aren't looking for it. Don't sleep on this little café--you'll leave wondering why you didn't stop in sooner.

I picked this cafe randomly while in the area because it had grass fed and organic food, but was…read moreimmediately impressed that they had two amazing Keto items!! The keto quiche with almond flour crust was to die for!!! But I didn't have to die because it was ultra low carb and listed the net carb count on the menu, so it was a safe food for me. LI'm not exaggerating when I say it's one of the best things I've ever eaten at a cafe! It had only 6 g of net carbs and was also vegan and gluten-free. It was so good, everyone I was dining with wanted to order it. As a Type 1 diabetic who needs to carefully control my carb intake and know exactly how many carbs are in food so that I can take the appropriate amount of insulin, eating outside of my home often feels like a huge game of risk. So when I encounter a place that has keto items on the menu and lists the amount of net carbs so that I know how much insulin to take, I am actually overwhelmed with gratitude. When there's an item like this on a menu for anyone on a keto diet, of which there's so many of us for many different reasons, I feel like the people making that decision are showing a kindness and respect to the diversity of their customers' needs. It's the most welcoming thing a business can do. My dream is that one day, every cafe offers this. This quiche was so good, I would be willing to make the drive to Westlake Village just to eat it. The staff was also really kind, checking other sugar and carb counts for other dishes so that I can understand more about the menu. Everything at The Royal Egg was just all class. The food was piping hot when it came out, the coffee was delicious, I loved that everything was farm to table and grass fed, etc. I genuinely can't wait to go back!!

If they are too busy to do orders to go, they shouldn't take the order…read more Tried to get breakfast today- got a text saying it was ready-$33 for one egg burrito btw- when I got there, it wasn't, so I asked how long and was told, "Have no idea; we're slammed." I said Really? She confirmed there was no way to give me a time, as they were slammed. I had to make up a parking spot, so I figured that I couldn't wait too long. So I just said, "Well, if you're that busy, I'll just take a refund." Another girl came over, and she said, " Well, you can't get a refund. You'll have to call Chow Now" I explained that I ordered through their website, and she explained that they use Chow Now. I said, " Well, can't you just tell me how long it'll be to make an egg burrito?" At this point, it had been only about 15-20 minutes since I ordered it. All I was doing was looking for a time. Then the manager came over and decided to "school" me on how busy the restaurant was, and I needed to understand that when I order food, it may or may not be ready when it says it's ready. She was obnoxious to say the least!! So I said, "Look, I don't want my money back, but how long is it gonna take to make a burrito?" and she said. "I don't know. We're busy!!!" And walked away, and then the other girl said it would only be another 10 minutes. So I said "OK", and I went outside to move my car because, as I mentioned, I was parked in a fake spot. There was no spot where I parked. I parked in the blue lines. Now just imagine if I was a delivery driver for DoorDash or somebody who delivers food, and you get a text saying your food is ready and you're there to pick it up, and there's no parking, so you make up a spot, and they're telling you that they have no idea how long it's gonna take. I was trying to be accommodating, so I said OK when the one girl said she would get it made in like 10 minutes. So I went outside to move my car, and then I got an email message saying that they canceled the order because they were too busy. I'm not sure what happened, but I have worked in customer service for many years. I'm in my 50s. I don't need to be talked down to like I'm a 20-year-old person who's never ordered food before and even if I was a 20-year-old who had never ordered food before, I don't think the manager coming out and screaming at me because she's overwhelmed is good customer service. I mean, being busy is a good thing. The place looked packed, so I'm assuming the food is really good, and it's really popular, but this interaction has left a really stale taste in my mouth. And my husband, when I came home without the egg burrito, was like are you kidding me and they were rude too. We'll never go there. Again, going back to my original statement. If they were too busy to make an egg burrito, then they shouldn't have taken the order in the first place. I'm sure the manager will get upset and comment something rude about me. I was happy to wait, I just needed a time. If it was 45 minutes, I could have come back home. If it were 10, then I could have moved my car, which is what I decided to do when they canceled the order.
