A Rose Avenue staple that's been in 11/13/2012

A Rose Avenue staple that's been in place for eons and for reason. An awesome gathering place for morning coffee and breakfast. Lunch is also served. Order at the counter and be as healthful or sinful as you like with organic, made fresh daily entree and deli selections and decadent desserts. They have a thoughtful little gift shop dubbed as their market with gifts items and cards. more

hair in food, alleged sp in coffee 7/11/2009

I never had much luck with that place. On my infrequent visits they would always run out of ham/cheese croissants in the mornings. One day at a business breakfast I found dark hair and pieces of egg shell in my eggs. (it was replaced or refunded). The last time I had a coffee to go and when I finished drinking it there was that gooey unidentified substance, looked like a sp**. I called the manager, she did not ask to bring her the cup with that or apologized whatsoever. She just said it was something that I put in there. I was going to send it to the test lab, but I'd rather think that I mistaken it for a sp** than to find out that it was indeed a sp**. I felt sick and disgusted and haven't been back to that place for 3 years now. Pros: nice location, interior, crowd Cons: revoltingly bad experience more

Pretentious 1/18/2009

Pretentious and rude. Staff was impatient when ordering and refused to refill my iced tea unless I paid for the refill. The music was overwhelming loud and I was refused when I asked them to turn down the volume. The food was acceptable, but overpriced. No value here. Pros: Interesting atmosphere Cons: poor attitude & service more

A gem for breakfast 9/12/2008

What a great place! Their food is very fresh and well assorted. An artsy community seems to dine here. I had the eggs scandia and it was delicous! I waited for a table for about 20 minutes but it was well worth the wait. Their service was fantastic. This is a great place for breakfast especially. Great art displayed! Pros: Service, Food Cons: Wait for table more

Great Place! 3/20/2007

The food at this place is very fresh! if you are looking for a place with good food at reasonable prices you should definitely stop by. My friend brought me here for lunch! I had the choose 3 salads for $9.99. Their Walnut Chicken Salad is to die for! Everything is made fresh everyday. Great spot for breakfast and lunch! Pros: Freshness, great value, good location more

Nice cup of coffee in a great setting. 3/1/2007

Coffee is solid, rich and not overly roasted-- much better than in the past. Atomsphere is great and the outdoor patio is lively. Indoor can get noisy, but on off hours it's much more tame. The food is pretty decent, too. Pros: solid cup of coffee in a lively setting. Cons: can get crowded at times. more

great food for a decent price 7/9/2006

Very affordable ""California"" cuisine at the place. Lots of fresh ingredients, and the menu is mixed up all the time. I have no complaints at all about the food. The outdoor seating is also nice. The service is a little stuck up sometimes, and if you're not going to spend big bucks, the servers are less than attentive to you. Also, this place is frequently packed, so it's sometimes a wait to get a table, but usually not too bad. Pros: consistently good food Cons: service is a bit snooty at times more

Can be artsy, upscale, and casual all in one! 8/9/2005

This is the place where I take out-of-towners, parents, co-workers, friends. It has something for everyone. If you're looking for some light, California cuisine in an upbeat and unique setting, this is it. I esp. love the gift shop that's stocked with eclectic cards, candles, and art. GREAT local place and excellent brunch! If you go late, however, they tend to run out of good muffins on the weekends. Pros: scenery, brunch, gift shop Cons: waiting to be seated, parking more

Great for lunch 4/20/2004

A friend took me here while I was visiting from Atlanta, and it was a wonderful little place to have lunch before heading to the beach for a nice walk. Eat ouside on their patio if at all possible. Pros: Patio, Coffee more

Venice staple 6/10/2002

Located on the south end of Santa Monica's Main Street on the border of Venice is an old favorite, Rose Cafe. Plenty to chose from and a lovely enclosed patio that gets a little busy on the weekends but is perfect for anything from bridal showers to plain ole breakfast. Chose from deli salads, (skip) fritatas with enforced restrictions (""no subsititutions!!), and a variety of benedicts. My favorite with a special Bernaise sauce: Eggs San Pietro. Pros: patio, gift shop more
