Stopped in for breakfast today with my little baby, I'm staying across the street at the Hilton during an audio convention. I was close to driving out of the parking garage and then I realized I'd loose my spot and then regret it. The manager or owner of Le Cafe is a nice guy: I was close to ordering the lemon lime drink and he offered me a sample first. It was beyond delicious. Tasted like the base to a mojito, but better. The staff brings the food outside or at least they brought mine out to the nicely covered patio. The manager checked in on me once while I was sitting out there which I did not expect. On to the food. I ordered the protein omelet with a side of crispy hashbrowns (like Dennys or IHOP), and fruit (it was watermelon and orange cantaloupe ripe and delicious). I also added in a side of cottage cheese and it was as a lot for a side add on. I needed food for my dog and he likes cottage cheese and fruit. I suggest all the food that I ate and the patio was comfortable and actually kind of pretty. read more

Great customer service! I ordered a BBQ Western Burger, but it came with several veggies (The menu didn't mention any veggies). They happily fixed the issue and gave me what I was expecting to receive. This place has a good variety of items to choose from. They also have a wall full of snacks and a fridge full of drinks.

I would go again. You can park in the parking structure directly next to the cafe. There are tables to eat inside as well as outside. We were there just over an hour and were giving 3 validated slips good for 1/2 hour each. The coffee was good and available as a self serve unless you order a specialty coffee. I did order the plain breakfast burrito, which was alright, nothing to brag about. There is a large breakfast menu. I will have to try another item next. The staff was very friendly. Yes, do go. read more

I bought a tuna melt sandwich and a Gyro to go. I found this place on Yelp based on my location. It is on the bottom floor of a large business complex building. I gave it four stars because the tuna melt was average. I didn't think it looked anything like the photos. It wasn't special. It was just very pedestrian. I asked my husband just now about the Gyro to see what he thought and he said it was just average. So the bottom line is my expectations were higher solely based on the photos. That said, photos sometimes misrepresent and sometimes a restaurant has a day a little bit off. I will definitely try this place again. read more

This is a lovely little cafe with plenty of great lunch options. I was in the area for work and needed some lunch after a long day. After a quick Google search, I discovered this was right across from the hotel I was at. It is in a business center and a little tricky to find, but the lady on the phone was kind and gave me great directions. My co-worker and I walked in and were greeted by the family who runs this cafe. Very friendly people. I ordered the gyro salad, and my co-worker got the turkey pesto panini. Everything was fresh and delicious. I recommend this place for a tasty lunch. read more

Every time I eat at Le Cafe, especially when I order something new, I am reminded just how great this place is. Excellent choice of offerings, and I look forward to trying more and more of them. When I tell the owner, Kev, what a great job he does, he nonchalantly says, "We try." Well, the truth is, they do a WHOLE LOT MORE than just "try"--they nail it. Fresh, wholesome, tasty food, with pre-pandemic prices, if you can believe that--so refreshing in an age when many restaurants have gone up 25% in price. I I sometimes hesitate writing glowing reviews for fear the place will get much more crowded. Bring it on! Kev deserves the reviews and the business for doing a consistently great job at what he does! Six ****** if that was an option. read more

With all the ambience and parking outta the way, on to the drinks. It was my first time here and given its modern aesthetics, I was really excited to try their drinks. Unfortunately it was a miss for me that day. My Churro iced coffee did not have any hint of churro flavor or scent at all. Coffee didn't taste bad, just a bit of a disappointment when you go for a flavored coffee, if you know what I mean. My sister did enjoy her order of Fizzy Americano, so I MIGHT be back to try this place again. Won't be for a long while though because there are so many other quaint coffee shops all over Irvine.

At the Costa Mesa location, parking was a little tricky at first, but after circling we got lucky with a corner spot. The location itself is SO cute! It's right next to colorful barrel fountains, and on a sunny day it honestly felt like the perfect coffee outing. The line was pretty long and you are standing in direct sun, so just keep that in mind, but the service was quick and efficient once you order. Inside, it's small but really charming, with Sunny Angels hidden around and a very open, friendly vibe. My sister (who is basically a professional coffee drinker at this point ) got the matcha and said it was her favorite, which says a lot. I got the iced Spanish latte with oat milk, and it was SO good. Spanish lattes are my go-to, and this one had the perfect hint of cinnamon without being overly sweet.

My husband got the cold brew "Nook way" and finished it in like 10 minutes. He said it tasted like Golden Grahams cereal. Highly recommend both locations and especially the Spanish latte.

Wow wow... I was honestly so surprised to find that this was one of the best matchas I've ever had…read morein the OC area. The matcha was incredibly smooth, earthy, and had the perfect milk-to-matcha ratio. It actually tasted like matcha instead of being diluted by a giant cup of ice. I tried both the regular iced matcha with blueberry and the special iced matcha with matcha cold foam, and both were absolutely delicious. The only downside is that the parking lot is a bit small, but that's a minor issue. This location is located behind the Wahoo's Fish Taco Overall, I really loved this place and will definitely be coming back to try their other drinks

The cheese was not really melted into the steak. There could have been more cheese. I didn't really get the cheese and steak flavor combo. Green Bell Peppers don't add much flavor.

Our drinks came out super fast & the food followed shortly after! We got the cowboy steak & frites, cali burrito, saddle spice chai, & golden dunes. Cowboy steak & frites: very flavorful steak. good flavored fries. However, i wish there was a better steak to fries ratio. There were only 8 bites of steak & WAY too many fries. I couldn't finish the fries because i was sick & tired of eating them. worth a try, but not worth it for the price tbh Cali Burrito: good ratio of everything! didn't get soggy despite having guac & sauce. the meat was well marinated & very flavorful. if you were to get anything, i think this is the best tasting for the money! Saddle spice chai: tasted sour, lacked flavor. not good. do not get! Golden dunes: good flavor. good balance of bitter & sweet. would try, but probably wouldn't get again. not worth the price, maybe try a different coffee. Overall, their food was great & the place is super cute! be prepared to spend a pretty penny or two! would definitely come again!

Guys, I buy coffee out every single day, and most days I even make a second cup at home--so when I…read moresay this is some of the BEST coffee, I mean it! You truly can't go wrong with anything here. They know how to dial in their beans and pull the perfect shot, and you can actually taste the quality of the coffee in every drink. I've tried so many of their drinks and have loved them all. I go to a lot of coffee shops, and sometimes places get so caught up in the aesthetic, 100+ syrup flavors, cream tops, and all the extras that the actual coffee gets lost. This place manages to be cool, creative, and unique while still getting the most important part absolutely right..the coffee. And the pastries?! SO good. Made in-house and seriously worth getting with your drink. My favorite the butter croissant and strawberry cream cheese danish. Great location, amazing atmosphere, incredible coffee, and everything is consistently on point. I come here at least four times a month, and it never disappoints. Easily one of the best coffee spots around!

Good for studying and working. What I got: Banana Cloud Matcha $6.95 - 2/5 for me. - although the cream was tasty, it was mostly foam for some reason. Their matcha tasted bitter and watered down. And once the drink is mixed, you will not taste the matcha AT ALL. Service was okay. I saw that the girl who helped the customer before me was really friendly and accomodating. However, the guy who took my order was not really friendly as throughout our interaction he did not smile once, and sounded really bored and lowkey annoyed. Anyway, I would still go back to try their lattes/coffee as I think that's what they are more know for.

This place is awesome!!! The best part of going to work was knowing there was a wonderful cafe!!! I have never been dissappointed here and I am a very picky eater. The place is always clean and organized and the service and staff is warm and friendly. The owner (Kev) really takes pride in this place and the food is always fresh and made to order.He has a big menu with a great deal of variety. Breakfast burritos are delicious as well as the Wraps and Paninis and his wonderful daily specials, even the Burger and Fries are top notch. The salads and soups are excellent and fresh. He even has great coffee, and don't even get me started on their Brownies. I even came in on my day off to eat Lunch. I would highly reccommend this place. Best cafe in Orange County and I have eaten at a lot of building cafes and small joints. read more

The food is pretty good. Fair prices and lots of options. I eat here every day for lunch. Most of the staff is friendly and nice. But the Owner, a shorter heavier set Hispanic fellow tends to treat people different based on their gender and color of skin. He is always nice to girls and dark skinned people but he is very rude to white males. The rest of his staff is wonderful, which is why I still eat here on the daily. But the owner should really work on his customer service and at least treat every customer the same. They close a bit early but they are also open very early. Overall a nice little restaurant but I have a hard time supporting someone who treats people differently based on gender and skin color. read more

You'll need to go through a parking gate and get your ticket validated. Quite the walk from the visitor parking area. Also, there's a ton of construction in front of it as of Aug 2026, which further complicates things. Indoor and outdoor seating opportunities. Order at the register and they give you a buzzer. Casual atmosphere, even though most customers are dressed nicely since they're coming from white collar work during their breaks. Friendly staff. I got the breakfast burrito bowl, which was delicious and super filling. Note they serve breakfast all day, but also close early - midday I think - so no dinner hours.

I admit I was a little skeptical about the pickled zucchini at first, but damn... it all works together perfectly. Kudos to whoever came up with this combination!

The staff is very friendly- they take the time to acknowledge you even when busy, and they will take your order despite the registers being self service sufficient. The food is hit or miss. The falafel was small and overcooked, but I personally enjoyed the potatoes and hummus. The pita is standard, and I do not know if was made in location or bought premade, but I wish that the half came with the bowl. (It's possible that it comes with the plates, but I did not see it on the menu). For its price and quality, I probably wouldn't return if there were more local options to choose from.

But unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to the hype. We waited an hour and a half for two sliders and macaroni salad, which, in my opinion, was definitely not worth the wait or the time. The kitchen got backed up, and they even had to stop taking orders/refuse service because they were so overwhelmed. What really surprised me was that they didn't offer anything to the people who had been waiting over 1 1/2 hours--not even a pastry or small courtesy item. Since they were getting ready to close, I would think offering some of the pastries that might otherwise go to waste would have been a nice gesture and would've gone a long way with the customers who had been waiting so long. Overall, I'm glad I finally tried it, but I'm not sure I'd go back for the food alone. Maybe I'd give it another shot if I was there for drinks and the vibe!
