This café has really gone downhill over the past year. I brought my mom here for Mother's Day yesterday, and the experience was honestly uncomfortable from the start. While taking our order, the gentleman at the counter never once looked me in the eye. Instead, he kept staring and smiling off into the distance at something outside, even though there didn't seem to be anything there. It made the entire interaction feel very strange and awkward for all of us. To make matters worse, the drinks we ordered, which were very simple, were all disappointing. It's frustrating because this used to be a place I came to regularly and genuinely enjoyed. Unfortunately, after this experience, I don't plan on coming back and wouldn't recommend it to others anymore. read more

This place is the best. Nicest staff in Laguna and nicest breakfast spots on a Saturday after the farmer's market. My favorite dish is the eggs anna as it comes. My group also got the waffle and the eggs napoleon and they loved it. Tip: hot coffee there is better than the cold coffee, leave extra time to find parking on a Saturday, try the croissant! read more

Just updating my previous review. This time sat down to eat instead of take out. Outdoors was modestly decorated. Service was fast, we got our food quickly. I had the white hot chocolate with regular milk which was so delicious. Also had the Niçoise salad which was a large portion & so tasty! Loved every bite. read more

This place is so cute! They have great breakfast options and the staff is very friendly. This is a wonderful community cafe for locals. It caters especially well to regulars who want a community spot as the customers are friendly and the staff is welcome and create an atmosphere that invites but doesn't require people to start up conversations with each other. Those just interested in the food will be very happy with both their mainstay crowd pleasers and their own unique takes on common breakfast dishes. The unique oatmeal is a must try too. Wonderful place! read more

Favorite Breakfast Spot, really enjoy the location, and great vibes. The fruit is always a great touch on the plate, and I thought the eggs were cooked perfectly. Love seeing regulars come here and know I am going to have consistency. The boutique inside is also taseful and hand selected pieces are unique. read more

Pretty decent cafe/brunch spot. There's outdoor seating where you can people watch and busy atmosphere of Laguna. Their food is healthy and fresh. Their pastries goes well with their coffee.... Service is quick-order at the counter, they'll give you a number so they can bring it to your table. read more

Anastasia Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

I'm Laguna Beach resident for over 45 years. I own a shop in town and some of my customers had told me that the Anastasia was a great place for pastries and breakfast. So this morning I decided to stop by take a look. I ordered a croissant to take home for my breakfast to test The croissant was incredibly disappointing. It was heavy dense and actually raw inside. I ended up throwing it away. He charged me five dollars for that croissant. I will not recommend that place to anyone I gave it two stars just because it's a cute place read more

My friend and I stopped by Anastasia in Laguna Beach and had a lovely, casual meal. You order at the counter and then sit wherever you like, which gives the place a relaxed, beach-town vibe. The service was great -- friendly and efficient, which made the visit even more enjoyable. We shared the tuna sandwich first. It was delightfully crunchy and packed with flavor in every bite -- bold tuna, bright seasonings, and great texture. My only quibble was the bread: it was quite hard and very toasted. I would have preferred a softer, less toasted roll to better complement the tender filling, but that's a personal preference and plenty of people will enjoy the extra crunch. We also tried the mixed mushroom pasta, which was satisfying and far from dull. It was packed with mushroom flavor -- earthy and hearty -- exactly what you want when you're hungry and craving comfort food. Overall, Anastasia offers tasty, well-flavored dishes in a laid-back setting with great service. If you like your sandwiches extra crunchy, you'll love the tuna here; if you prefer a softer bite, you might ask for less toasting. The mushroom pasta is a solid choice for a filling, flavorful meal. read more

First time, we loved it. Excellent service and excellent food. Definitely will be back soon!

Sunday morn. Good day to grab some breakfast and Anastasia is always in one of my choices for breakfast. Good location, good food, and good service. Indoor or outdoors, especially in the late to post summer months from August to October. Parking is metered parking for the most part anywhere in Laguna Beach but there should be ample during these timeframes. Overall, always a place to return to. read more

Laguna Beach, Ca. This place is a great destination for locals. It's just a bit beyond what the tourists are willing to walk. You can come here for lunch on a Saturday or Sunday and sit right on down. I have been ordering the chicken penne with artichokes as of late. It comes out piping hot and stays that way for quite awhile. The sauce is great too. The Eggs Laguna is an artistic creation and is awesome. Lattes are consistently rich and delicious. There are several servers that are highly attentive. It is unlikely that a completed dish will remain on the table long. Even though most of the tables are outside, somehow they do a good job keeping the flys and other obnoxious insects from helping themselves. read more

the food is amazing and the atmosphere is very European. the service is excellent with seating inside with great vibe music or outdoor quiet seating. the cups and straws are made out of corn so there is a strong commitment to your health. read more

Been to this place a couple of times and enjoyed it each time. You queue to order and pay and they bring your order to your table. Staff are nice and they go around checking if you're okay or need anything at good intervals during your meal. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It's almost always a lovely day at Laguna Beach and so it's nice to eat al fresco. They have a covered outdoor area and they also have little tables outside with umbrellas. Today I had Eggs Laguna which I managed to finish all by myself. Nice combo of poached eggs, avocados, basil, toast, tomatoes and seasonal fruit (it's cantaloupe this time). My husband had the Anastasia omelette which he also enjoyed. He ordered a side of toast with it. For drinks we had iced tea and freshly squeezed orange juice. It was a nice brunch on a nice spring day at Laguna Beach! read more

One of My Go-To Spots--Especially in Fall This is definitely one of the places my friends and I like to frequent. I especially love coming here when the weather starts to turn in the fall--when there's a little nip in the air. Sitting outside and feeling that Laguna Beach breeze while having brunch is honestly one of my favorite things to do. Saturdays after the farmers market, this place does get a little packed--just something to note. I usually order the eggs off the menu. I've tried the Swedish pancakes, but they were a little too sweet for my taste. I personally prefer their omelet options, and I definitely recommend the huevos rancheros--it's one of my go-tos here. So if you're in the area and looking for a chill, cozy brunch with a nice outdoor setup, this spot is worth checking out. read more

The food was extremely tasty. Good portion size. Lots of vegetarian options. I ordered the portobello mushroom sandwich. My friend ordered a poached egg. We both had iced tea. And ordered a lemon bar. I love the ambience as you can sit either inside or outside and watch the people. The service was good. I would love to come back. read more

We stopped in here for an early lunch and decided to split a Caesar salad and a pizza. I have never had a Cesar salad with tomato's on it before, and the dressing was not traditional Caesar so that also caught us off guard. It tasted good, just wasn't what we were expecting! The pizza was nothing special. It had a thin crust and it tasted good as well. Our friend got the chicken panini and said hit was incredible. The gentleman behind the country was not-not friendly, but as we explored the menu he wasn't much help either. The bus boys though were awesome!! They filled our waters, got milk for our coffee, checked in on us. Overall there are better places in the area we'd go to next time. read more

To start: their version of French toast is Devine!!! 10/10, and they give you a caramel syrup for it Their OJ was not my favorite but it is definitely fresh!! The way they presented my fruit was wonderful and I didn't expect that. The service was unexpectedly great! I thought it would be a self serve sorta situation but they were super friendly and helpful read more

Walk-up to order and pay, then wait a lifetime to get your brunch... the gingerbread waffles were cold, latte was decent and slightly bitter - the star dish was the breakfast combo my mom ordered - crispy battered French toast. Nice plating presentation. There are nicer options for breakfast nearby, so probably wouldn't return. read more

Anastasia Cafe - eggs laguna (with an extra egg) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

Solid standard brunch place in the OC. Loved the diverse array of breakfast selections offered, the presentation of the dishes and the sidewalk seating. My only gripe was the prosciutto chosen for my dish. It was rather rubbery and tough. Definitely, not the same quality of prosciutto I'm used to purchasing. However, I found the slices of cantaloupe a nice addition to the dishes. Another thing I liked about this place especially, is that the staff is friendly and attentive to one's needs. I had ordered the incorrect coffee and they took care of the issue flawlessly. read more

So nice to meet Eco(sp) this am in one of Laguna's gems. I hadn't been in for a while but am definitely putting it on my radar again as a be of our older spots for fabulous coffee (plain latte today at 7am was PURRRRECT) while waiting for city hall to open. Thank you so much. See you again soon!! Lunch next!! Coffee, then lunch.... Thanks!! Ambience? Excellent for a chat or even a quiet meeting. read more

Anastasia Cafe - Strawberry waffles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

The breakfast is delicious -- Top gourmet. However, even with that Anastasia does not rate 5 stars: 1) The coffee is dreadful -- tastes like watered down Sanka. 2) We asked if we could "sub out" potatoes for their fruit "on the side" and was charged without telling us there wound an extra charge. 3) "Fruit on the side" was not a side dish of fruit but literally fruit on the side OF THE PLATE! -- More like garnish than much of any fruit to speak of. Sorry Anastasia, You need to live up to expectations and not turn a good meal expecting to pay around $30 to paying over $40 for a mediocre dining experience. read more

I've been coming here for years and this is my first review so shame on me for not posting sooner but last weekend I had the tuna fish sandwich special and it was hands down the best tuna sandwich I've ever had. Thin slice of tomato, perfectly ripe avocado, added cheddar cheese and a delicious mix of tuna on toasted sourdough. I also got my usual glass of fresh squeezed orange juice which is pretty pricey but worth every drop. Come and get this special before it goes bye bye. Thank you Anastasia! read more

Super cute little brunch place attached to a boutique. Beautiful presentation for my eggs Laguna but it could've used a little bit of seasoning.

Outdoors seating right on the sidewalk. This makes it feel like a cozy neighborhood hangout place. Food presentation is excellent. My egg Napoleon came out with an antenna. I was amazed at how the waiter could balance the stack without it falling on the floor.This is my most favorite breakfast as it's lean and not oily and refreshing, very unlike the typical American breakfast. We order 2 mimosas. OJ was fresh squeezed, and we has 2 bottles od champagne. So we ended up with 4 regular mimosas. read more

Amongst the more upscale areas in south OC Laguna beach tends to be the more diverse and laid back compared to its nearby cousin, Newport. After the wife enjoyed a massage at a nearby location we found this cafe sitting in one of the many small side streets that comprise the artsy and boutique city. Anastasia was a nice quiet spot to have a brunch as it's nestled in on one of the many small side streets that make up central Laguna. We had three items: the Swedish pancake (light and fluffy but a pancake that is a pancake), the Anastasia omelette (a well balanced and overall satisfying dish), and the Salmon Benedict (a large portion with a plentiful amount of fish). And for those that are seeking establishments that will not break the bank this one is still relatively affordable considering the high end locale. It's worth a try on a Sunday afternoon in a cozy environment near the coastline. read more

A popular brunch spot in Laguna Beach, vibes over food. The wait was incredibly long (you order then you seat yourself) but the food took 30+ mins to prepare. I got the poached eggs over veggies, but both of my eggs were poached! One was actually overdone (yikes!) My friend also said her bread was soggy and the prosciutto is just cut up ham...? The servers are soooo kind and friendly so make sure to leave a tip for their service! More of a restaurant that I would come for the ambiance rather than the food. read more
