    Brad's Way Iced Shaken Espresso
    Michelle N.

    Wanted to try a new coffee shop and luckily this place had a sale the time we ordered! I got the Brad's Way Iced Shaken Espresso and it was BOGO Free! It was light, but still had the espresso kick I needed. The hints of hazelnut topped it off. Wish it was given in a bigger size! Similar to the 85 degrees Coffee. If you like that, you'll like this.

    Breakfast Sando

    Steadfast Cafe is a small little spot tucked away in a shopping center, and it was such a pleasant surprise. There are tables inside and outside, and it had that easy morning vibe with people hanging out and sipping coffee. I ordered the Breakfast Sando to share with my broke bestie, aka my 10-year-old son, and it absolutely understood the assignment: flaky, buttery croissant, smoky thick-cut bacon, fluffy eggs, melty gouda, and a sriracha mayo that gives it a little kick without taking over. Rich, satisfying, and exactly what you want from a breakfast sandwich. My son is a breakfast sandwich connoisseur (he gets them everywhere), so I asked for the official verdict. He took a bite and said, "This breakfast sandwich is incredible." Case closed. Service was fast and genuinely friendly. She wished us a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and I love that kind of warmth. Also grabbed an old-school Martinelli's apple juice, which was the perfect little throwback. Come for the croissant situation, stay for the kind service. Easy recommend.

    A cozy cafe located perfectly in the corner of a small business strip. A sizeable amount of seating for those wanting to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee with their meal. The staff is friendly and fast with their service. I ordered the Honey Vanilla Cinnamon Latte which is smooth, rich and not too sweet. I also ordered their Ham and Swiss Croissant which was good.

    Ham and Cheese Croissant

    I was craving a croissant sandwich and found this spot through Yelp. It looked promising online, but when I got there, it really was a true hole-in-the-wall. The croissant looked great in the photos, but in person, it was pretty small for the price -- about $15 for a sandwich with just egg, avocado, ham, bacon, and lettuce. Definitely on the pricey side for what you get. I also tried the buttery lavender matcha, but it was just okay -- I've had better at other matcha spots. Service was friendly, but overall, I don't think I'd come back. Cute little place, just not worth the hype or price for me.

    Next Level Breakfast Sando

    Was sitting on the couch and the day was getting on so I decided to run some errands. As I was getting ready I opened Yelp to look for some place to grab a quick bite and while scrolling Steadfast popped up. Super nice little cafe with TONS of drink options! I saw a review for the 'Next Level Breakfast Sando' and was like "Yep! That's the one!" Food came out fast and the cashier/server was super nice. They have merch you can purchase, which you totally should. Cute signs and such. And they had heart shaped straws. What?!

    Chicken and Swiss
    Tay K.

    came here for a quick breakfast and it was so bomb the chicken & swiss on country bread is my absolute FAVEEE. the chicken is juicy and the bread is crunchy but soft.. everything about the chicken and swiss is pure perfection 10/10 the mediterranean toast was good, it had a lot of balsamic glaze on it so it was very acidic but delicious nonetheless, loveloveloved the cream cheese the avocado turkey sando was delicious! the bread was perfectly toasted, lots of turkey and veggies. i loved the sauce that they put in there, some sort of mayo mixture, seriously so yummy although it's a small lil joint, the overall vibes were great! food was sexy n delicious. service was really good too

    Lox Bagel and Next Level Avocado toast
    Linda V.

    Came here Saturday morning with the bf on our bikes for a quick brunch based off yelp reviews after seeing this place. Parking is dicey in this little strip mall, when I realized I'd been here before a couple years back for the donuttery a few doors down but never wanted to come back because of the parking situation that I saw again today as we were leaving. Some dude in a truck parked in an off way sticking out, making it difficult for people to get by his parked truck. It's a cute place. Outdoor, some indoor seating available and a decent menu. No place to actually lock up your bikes but you can probably lock it to their gate. We didn't have to though because we ate outside by our bikes without issue. He ordered the lox bagel and I got the next level avocado toast. There are 6 outside tables and when we were there 4 were empty but the wait was still a bit long so don't come if you're in a hurry or order ahead of time to avoid the wait. Next level avo toast was good. I think I would've preferred no feta cheese and some thin sliced red onions instead. Lox bagel had tomato, which was not bad, but we could've done away with that and had more lox. All in all good portions and healthy alternative to what I normally don't like at pancake/waffle breakfast diners that do superfluous amounts of carbs with no balance in protein unless you pay for an extra order of it. Bummed the cookie on the side of their sign is faded because it's super cute (with freckles!) didn't order coffee because we biked there but will try another time.

    Coffee cake
    Almog K.

    I was just on my way out of town and had to stop for breakfast before a long drive a quick yelp search brought me here. It was 8:30 am on a Sunday and busy but the girls working here were so nice and helpful. I took a breakfast sandwich on sourdough. A big americano and a coffee cake for the road. The sandwich was great, exactly what I needed. The coffee is great and the coffee cake was surprisingly great too. Highly recommend

    Steadfast Cafe is a family-owned cafe located right next to the popular donut shop The Donuttery in Huntington Beach. This is the flagship cafe and a second cafe is located in Long Beach. [Parking]: Easy and free plaza parking - I had no issue finding an available spot on weekdays. [Atmosphere]: Cozy indoor vibe with a small outdoor patio area. A great spot to catch up with friends, but nothing to see in the surrounding area so not the best spot for an ideal date. [Menu]: I asked for a recommended drink and the cashier suggested Honey Vanilla Cinnamon Latte. For food, Avocado Toast and Next Level Breakfast Sando are the Yelp's top highlights. They also have not coffee options like matcha and bagel options. *** Next Level breakfast Sando (two eggs, gouda, Siracha mayo, tomato, lettuce, avocado on a croissant - $15.95 + half ham & half bacon additional $2): Frankly it was one of the most expensive breakfast sandwiches I have ever had, but they are not holding back on ingredients and presentation. The taste matched the presentation - crusty croissant, smooth texture from avocado, nutritious egg, and crispy bacon - it was one jam-packed sando. Honey Vanilla Cinnamon Latte (honey, vanilla and cinnamon infused whole milk latte with our signature golden espresso - $5.25 + $0.50 for hot medium 16 oz): Other cinnamon lattes from other shops typically tasted overly sweet, but this one the sweetness was just right and had the right balance between honey, cinnamon, and vanilla. *** Expensive sando, but it was certainly one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have had in recent years. A solid 5-star on breakfast sando and latte.

    Rosemary latte
    Aubree K.

    I came in this morning after finding this place on maps. I ordered an iced rosemary latte and a breakfast sando with bacon. The rosemary latte did not have an overwhelming rosemary flavor at all, but a lightly sweetened latte with notes of rosemary. The breakfast sando was AMAZING!!! The flavor was phenomenal between the way the egg was cooked and the siracha mayo. The service was good. It was a little busy so it took a while to get our food, but the lattes came out quickly. Which is all understandable considering it was a busy Saturday morning. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. The inside was a bit crowded and condensed with chairs/tables. The parking was difficult because the donuttery is in the same parking lot. I will also add, when I do go back, I won't be ordering a chai latte. I did notice they used tazo instead of local outsourcing. Which as an avid chai drinker, I was slightly disappointed.

    It was my first time at Steadfast cafe in HB. I ordered the Brads Way shaken espresso and chocolate banana muffin. Little pricey. The shaken espresso was just okay, there was something missing that wasn't able to finish my drink. The muffin was stale. I couldn't finish my muffin either. I did ask to warm my pastry but I was in a hurry , I let it go. If it's your first time, this place is easy to miss. Turn into the lot right before the Salvation Army Thrift Store. Clean, cute, and tidy cafe. Friendly staff. Outdoor seating.

    Steadfast Café is such a cute little spot with so many fun drink choices it's hard to choose just one! We decided to try their toast flight, and wow, it did not disappoint. We even went back to order a few more different toast that we liked from the flight. It was that good !!! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The café itself has a cozy, welcoming vibe. I actually remember coming here back when it was Snow Monster, so it was fun to see the transformation and what a lovely one it is! The staff, though, is what really makes this place shine. Truly some of the sweetest people I've ever met. We bought a cake pop for my son, and when he accidentally dropped it, one of the staff (maybe the owner or manager?) came around with a brand new one just to make sure his little three year old world was okay again. That kind of kindness is rare and so appreciated. I honestly can't say enough good things about their customer service they are just genuine, kind hearted people. I tried one of their specialty drinks from the chalkboard menu, and also took sips from my sister's (all 3 of them) and mom's drinks everything was so delicious. Even my fiancé, who's pretty picky when it comes to coffee shops, loved it here. That says a lot! I've already recommended Steadfast to so many friends and family, and we're already looking forward to going back. We love that it's in Huntington and so close to home, it's definitely a new favorite for us.

    Honey Vanilla Cinnamon Latte

    Adorable small coffee shop tucked in a strip center. Hidden charm. Skip the Cali bagel... the avocado didn't taste fresh and likely came out of individually packed store bought guacamole. The blueberry grilled cheese wasn't my fav either, in my opinion, the gooey cheese favor was lacking. Service was great.

We did the indoor seating but were sat where we could see the beach and sunset. We ordered: Spicy tuna crispy rice (4/5): super yummy and added extra thai chilis for a kick. Some parts of the rice were more hard than crispy. Black mussels (4/5): pretty good, mom loved them. The bread it came with soaked up the sauce wonderfully. Garlic fries (5/5): so flavorful and crispy and garlicky- dipped them in the mussel sauce and it was amazing. Shrimp and lobster linguine (4/5): could use more salt but overall really good! They're pretty generous with the shrimp and lobster (maybe like 5 large shrimp and 3 claws iirc). Pistachio crusted halibut (4.5/5): mom said this was her favorite because of the flavor, flakiness of the fish, and abundance of vegetables. Pro tip for spice lovers: they provide sides of chopped thai chilis if you ask! We went through 3 different bowls of chilis

    Had such a great dining experience at Lōrea inside Pasea Hotel & Spa!…read moreLet me start by saying the food was SO delicious overall. Now, for full honesty, the starters weren't the star of the show for me. We ordered the pork belly wraps and spicy pork gyoza. Both were cooked well, but in my opinion, they were missing that extra "something" maybe a dipping sauce or a bit more flavor to really elevate them. Next time, I'd probably skip those and try different appetizers. The service was great from start to finish attentive, friendly, and everything came out smoothly. The restaurant itself is super cute, and I loved both the indoor and outdoor seating options. We sat outside under the heaters, which made for such a cozy, perfect vibe. BUT the mains and sides? That's where they absolutely delivered. I had the Korean BBQ salmon and WOW flavor on flavor on flavor. Easily one of my favorites of the night. For the table, we shared lobster mac and cheese, asparagus, and whipped potatoes, and let me tell you... those sides were everything. The portions are generous (perfect for sharing with 4-6 people), the mac and cheese was rich and creamy, the asparagus was cooked perfectly, and the whipped potatoes? Smooth, fluffy, and packed with flavor, definitely a standout. We were originally hoping for the tomahawk steak, but they had run out (sad moment ). However, they made it right by offering a prime New York steak for two and honestly, no regrets because that steak was FIRE. Super flavorful, juicy, and absolutely mouthwatering. We also tried the Wagyu and sea bass, which were both delicious, but the real highlights for me were the steak and salmon. Drinks were also on point! We had an Old Fashioned, Moscow Mule, and a few lemon drops including blackberry, passionfruit, and watermelon. The blackberry lemon drop was hands down my favorite, so good! To top it all off, they brought out the cutest birthday macaroons! One tasted like Fruity Pebbles (so fun!) and the other was paired with whipped cream and raspberries such a sweet touch. Overall, while the appetizers didn't quite hit for me, the mains and sides absolutely carried the experience and are 100% the reason I'll be back. I'll definitely be returning for more steak and that Korean BBQ salmon!

I called ahead of time and made a reservation and they knew it was for a special birthday. We did get a seat right against the glass overlooking the beach, which was very pretty and the restaurant is very pretty. But I guess it wouldn't have been that hard to get a table against the glass because there was only maybe three or four other table tables sat in the whole restaurant anyways. Our waitress came up to us and seemed nice and asked us if we wanted a drink but we literally hadn't even looked at the menu yet so I said I just need a minute to look and then she proceeded to not come back for about 15 to 20 minutes to take our drink order, which was disappointing. We waited so long before she came back that we went ahead and ordered the food and drinks at the same time because I didn't know when she would come back again. It took a long time to get the drinks. The drinks came about the same time that the food came. They only had a few specialty cocktail items available on the menu. I picked one. I did not like it, but that's not their fault. The food unfortunately was really bad. It all sounded really good, but I did not like it. The only thing that I liked was the salmon appetizer smoked salmon on a flatbread bread. The avocado toast had horrible bread, and the avocado on top tasted like spoiled avocado. And the fig and Barada, unfortunately was on the same bread that was absolutely horrible bread, and had no flavor on top. The rosemary french fries were good. I think the worst part of it though was the fact that the waitress that was waiting on us pretty much never showed up again. She wasn't even the one that brought us our food. And I had to wait probably 20 minutes for her to come back around when we were done eating and by that time I had just sent my card at the end of the table because I didn't want to wait for the check and then have to wait another 20 minutes for her to come back with that. It was odd to me because she couldn't have been that busy when she only had. What like two tables? Like what was she doing back there lol anyways it was not the best.
