This was only the second visit my family and I made to this restaurant, and the second time was better. The food here is absolutely DELICIOUS! Our food was fresh, well prepared, and filling. Prices are moderate but reasonable for the portion sizes. The service offered by every employee we had contact with was top-notch. The restaurant itself is very nice and comfortable, with a relaxed atmosphere. Street parking is available throughout the area. I am unsure about parking in the rear lot, as I was fortunate to find parking in front of the restaurant during my two visits here. read more

Met a friend for a weekend brunch and we found this restaurant on yelp as the halfway point. First impression was great. The place is cozy, rustic and very family friendly with kids drawing/artwork displayed throughout. They also have a nice patio seating option, but it was a bit cold the day we went. We were immediately greeted and told that we can order via the QR code process or go to the front to order/pay and it's a cashless restaurant. Service was prompt and attentive. We tried the spring omelette, berry crepes and oatmeal. Everything was beautifully presented and satisfying. The omelette could've benefited from a tad more salt/seasoning but there was a habanero hot sauce in the table that perked it up. I would consider returning next time I'm in the area. There is a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant (enter through the alley) but it fills up fast. read more

Delicious breakfast food with good portions. Their lattes are also worth trying. You order and pay at the register and sit wherever you want. Service is polite and quick. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and the bathrooms are clean. read more

The last time I tried this place was 2021 and I didn't enjoy it but I figured I'd give it a second chance. Street parking is available, first 2 hours are free during the day but there is also a small parking lot behind the restaurant, however parking is very limited. Upon entering, you're greeted by a host and have the option of sitting inside or outside. The restaurant operates on a self-seating system & you can either order your own food with a barcode on the table or go up front to the host. If you're the type of person that doesn't really want to interact too much with staff, then this is the spot for you. I ordered the Blu Jam Eggs Benedict with potatoes and it was nothing special. I had to add salt, pepper and lots of hot sauce to enjoy this meal. The potatoes were extremely bland and lacked flavor, I'd recommend ordering them with bell pepper & onions. Overall, if I'm being honest I wouldn't recommend to any of my friends nor would I go back. read more

Amazing service and delicious food! I absolutely love that they have their own parking lot. It is a MUST in LA. Everyone was so friendly despite the fact that the ordering is through the QR code along with checkout. You have to pay once you order and you can always add more to your order but everything will be paid as you order. read more

I usually go to the Blu Jam in Woodland Hills but they had a kitchen fire and they haven't reopened! So here I am in Sherman Oaks! I enjoyed my breakfast and my giant latte. I had the Huevos Rancheros, a crispy tortilla with black beans, salsa, and cheese with an egg on top! Yummy! My daughter and grandson both enjoyed the crispy French toast. The plate was large. One of my favorite places for breakfast. read more

Back on the Jam! This steadily busy Blu Jam Cafe in Sherman Oaks is one I enjoy. From the friendly service to the trendy layout and extensive options #SomethingForEveryone Popped in for brunch with my boyfriend and got told to seat ourselves wherever we like - we found a nice spot on the left corner patio, but unfortunately the hostess got overwhelmed briefly and completely forgot about us. 15 minutes later after seeing two nice gentlemen, most like awesome regulars, be shown to a table directly next to us with menus, water and that incredible Blu Jam Cafe charm... I had to go wait a minute lol She was very apologetic and everyone including who I believe might be the manager did whatever they could to make up for those missed beats before. We got guided to ordering online, as you pay upfront before enjoying your meal. Though I know you can order at the front register also. While BJC's has some seriously great vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options - I'm hooked on this Spicy Vegan Tofu Hash the most and it might just be me, but the portions seem bigger than before and I'm all in! Felt a little deja vu as my other half had the iconic Crunch French Toast w/ vanilla bean sauce/syrup. Still lots of classic essentials for the table (ketchup, hot sauce, pepper, salt, plus more) and you get lots of what you need in a pinch. While this is one of their only locations that doesn't offer wine (like sparkling w/ orange to have a great mimosa) or beer, you can enjoy a variety of great juices, teas and coffees. Street parking locally off Ventura Blvd/Noble Avenue recommended, but there is a very small lot in the rear. Free Wi-Fi. Gender neutral restrooms. Great tunes. And overall great for groups, families, friends dates, pets (friendly patio), solo meals and Blu Jam fun. read more

A cute and casual spot for brunch! When you arrive, you can either order and pay at the entrance or scan the QR code at your table and order from your phone. They have an extensive menu, so there's something for everyone! I got the California omelette, which was solid, and I especially loved the jam that came with the bread! Portion sizes are quite generous, making it feel like a great bang for your buck. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall ambiance feels warm, homey, and very much like a neighborhood staple. Seating: Both indoor and outdoor patio seating available Parking: There's a small lot in the back or street parking in the area read more

Best French toast in town! Crunchy and crispy texture on the outside and soft on the inside. They top it with fresh berries and powdered sugar but the white dipping sauce brings it all together. You can still request for syrup. The orange dream shake is ridiculously good. It tastes exactly like an orange dreamsicle but the texture is so smooth and creamy. I really recommend this drink! It's a little pricier but worth it! The churro French toast is also good and they cut those into strips. I prefer the og though. The savory dishes were also good, I've tasted my friends and I've already been back multiple times. Service was friendly, you order from the website and the waiter finds your table to serve. The restaurant is a cute little cafe and it feel very homey. Great brunch spot that has something for everyone. read more

I fell in love with this place as soon as we arrived. We were greeted immediately by the nicest gentleman at the door. He didn't have a name tag and I'm sorry I didn't ask for his name. He's one of those people that you go back to see. We were pressed for time so I asked if we could place our order to-go. We ordered Czech style strawberry crepes, an eggwich, a breakfast burrito, Florentine benedict, and matcha rose lattes. The restaurant was bigger than I initially anticipated; It wrapped around back. This restaurant is beautiful inside, and the outdoor seating was beautiful as well. The sweet hispanic lady waiting on the tables on their patio brought us water while we waited. I asked if we could eat quickly if the table was available. We enjoyed a nice brunch and perfect weather. Don't sleep on their matcha rose latte or papas (potatoes). Everything was delicious and every employee we came across was lovely. Thank you for the hospitality, I'd definitely be back next time we're in LA. read more

Cute spot for brunch! We went on a Sunday morning and the wait was about 35 minutes for a table of 2. I ordered the breakfast burger and it was delicious! The egg was cooked perfectly and burger itself was packed with flavor. Just a heads up, eat the French toast when you get them, because they get quite soggy if you save them for last! You'd order on your phone and pay as well on your own. There's a server to help you if you needed assistance with your order. The wait time from placing our order to finally receiving it was about 15-20 ~ minutes. read more

5 star experience today at Blu Jam Sherman Oaks! Thank you Jay for setting this meal up for my mom and I, and thank you Jeff for the wonderful, thoughtful experience! I had an order go wrong a few weeks back. I spoke with Jay and he was wonderful. I was invited back to Blu Jam with a guest, so I brought my mom, who has never been there. EXPERIENCE: The restaurant is small, but cute. It's very casual. The only thing I would recommend is for the employees to greet guests as they wait at the hostess stand to be seated. My mom and I walked in, two different employees saw us, but walked away. They came back, saw us again, and walked away. I get they weren't a host, but still. Say hello. We waited there about 5 minutes. It was only us waiting. It would have been nice to hear "someone will be with you." We just kept getting ghosted. I have to be honest with my reviews here. My mom wanted to walk out. Luckily we stayed... JEFF: You are so kind and made our dining experience wonderful. Thank you for being so gracious, generous, and friendly. My mom also adored you! FOOD: Jeff started us with a little crepe with strawberry jam. Divine! The food was incredible. I ordered the Breakfast Burrito. In my opinion, it's the best Breakfast Burrito I've ever had. It has so much flavor. Get it with chicken sausage and a side of their delicious salsa verde! My mom got the California Omelette. She enjoyed it. The London Fog Iced Latte with Oat Milk was literally the best drink I've ever had in my entire life. Jeff gave me a refill as well! I wanted that drink to last forever! My mom got the fresh squeezed orange juice. OVERALL: This was a fun experience! Thank you Jeff for the exquisite service and delicious food! We felt so spoiled. read more

Jay P, The business manager at Blue jam was kind enough to comment on my review. Apologies for mentioning another restaurant, I was going to wear this was against Yelp policy. The hostess or server at the front told us we could type in our order at the front, or use the QR code and our table. We were unable to verbally place an order with a server. That said, we did enjoy our meal, and we will be returning. Good food is good food! And since the service was much better, that ensures our return. read more

I've visited in person before but this time I ordered online for pickup. I stopped by on a Thursday morning and it was quiet and not very busy. When dining in, I usually park in the nearby residential area since parking on Ventura is limited and metered. My order was ready by the time I arrived and the service was good. I ordered the Simply Eggs which comes with potatoes and toast, with the option to add bacon for an additional fee. The jam that comes with the toast is really good!! read more

Was in the area, and decided to stop at this modern cafe for breakfast. I ordered the crunchy French toast. WOW!! They were the best I've ever had. They were crispy, not overloaded with the taste or smell of egg, and they were not too sweet. They were paired with a side of vanilla bean sauce and fresh fruit which turned them into a spoonful of happiness. The ordering system was a new experience for me because you have to order through a QR code or walk up to the counter. It turned out to be very easy because it was user friendly, and the menu was fully loaded with pictures. I will definitely be returning to this location in the future. The waitress was friendly, our water was constantly filled and the overall feeling was welcomed and relaxed. read more

My friends brag about this location all the time. So I decide to go, I can say that it is worth bragging about. You can order using QR code or order in the front. We preferred ordering in front. We ordered omlette and sandwiches. My sandwich was so good. I really liked my sandwich, it tasted really good. If you like ginger, I recommend ordering the ginger shot. It has interesting flavor. The ambiance is lovely. There is plenty of seating area. You can pick to seat inside or outside. When we went , it was kind of cold so we preferred to seat inside. read more

First time coming here. There was a wait-list with QR code at their front door. I waited about 30-40minutes for 3 people around 12:30pm. They have their own parking lot but it was small. Also difficult to park on the street because there were a lot of restaurants around that area. So parking, I would give this place 2 out of 5. There were tables outside that people can sit down to enjoy their foods and drinks outside. One thing about this restaurant was we ordered our foods with QR code and then we paid first for our foods and then one waiter came out with our foods all at once. It was difficult to get waiters when we needed few things for our table. Food- we ordered Blu Jam Benedict, Czech style strawberry crepes, Avocado toast, Cali burger, and Vanilla Latte. They all tasted good. No complaints there. Good portion for those prices. read more

There is a small lot in the back of the restaurant and you enter from the back alley road. It's pretty tight, so large cars beware. There was a lot of inside seating, as well as outdoor seating. I found it weird that you either order at the counter or via the QR code at your table. Portions were very good. I couldn't even finish my whole meal. The potatoes are meh. I added extra salt but tbh it wasn't worth the space in my belly. My iced coffee was like drinking a milkshake. 10/10 There are two unisex single stall bathrooms. read more

I am rewatching Entourage and so many things in LA have changed since 2004. Very few places where I could get a satisfying breakfast, but I was so happy with my experience at Blu Jam. The breakfast potatoes were delicious! They left a pitcher of water so there was no need for the waiters to come over to refill. It was a really satisfying meal. Plenty of free parking early Sunday morning, otherwise a small lot in the back (entrance on Noble). read more

Came here on a Saturday for brunch with my boyfriend. There were many indoor/outdoor seating but due to the weather, it was extremely windy and cold so we waited to be seated indoors. Entry way is fairly small and everyone crowded themselves indoors due to the weather. There was a QR code for you to sign in to be seated indoors and all outdoor diners were seated immediately. Large menu variety. I ordered their January special which was the breakfast panini and london fog lavender latte. We ordered our food prior to being seated which made our experience faster and smoother. The london fog lavender latte was BY FAR the BEST london fog i've ever had. Extremely fragrant, flavorful and creamy. Strong notes of lavender with the right amount of earl grey, vanilla and honey. I was HOOKED. Breakfast panini was good as well. The potatoes were crispy but bland. Food wise, everything was lacking salt but the tabanero hot sauce did justice to add so much flavor to the panini and potatoes. Panini was beautifully toasty and extremely filling. Ingredients is very healthy and clean which may be why its was lacking so much salt. Overall would love to return to maybe try their caramelized apple crepes or Norwegian eggs benedict. read more

A brunch favorite!! You can always count on Blu Jam for some really good food! My sister and I ordered our iced matcha duo (one with whole milk and the other with almond milk). So refreshing and as matcha lovers, we definitely approve! For food, we ordered the Simply Eggs (bacon, eggs, potatoes, toast, and jam) and Create Your Own Scramble (mushroom, tomato, onion, bacon). So so delicious! The potatoes were perfectly crispy and the bacon was very well done and tasty! The scramble was perfectly mixed and the mushrooms were so good! The jam -- speechless! It is my absolute favorite! We love how easy it is to order via QR code and how friendly everyone is. The ambiance is very casual and great for taking family or friends. Totally recommend! read more

AWFUL in every way. Tipping when you order is insulting. Same complaints as others. My friend's food was brought out 10 minutes before mine. My $20+ cobb salad was pretty disgusting. The chicken was inedible. However no one checks in on the table to ask. I did flag someone down and ask for a refill which never came. It was overpriced, unpleasant and gross. read more

Valley residents love Blue Jam - with good reason. Their space is bright and airy with indoor and outdoor seating. Their servers are friendly, engaging and swift with ice tea refills. And of course the food is delicious. Adding a special plug here for the really wonderful vegan options at this location. It's easy to stay vegetarian at most brunch places - but vegan is harder and sometimes impossible unless all you want is a bowl of potatoes. Blue Jam's tofu scramble and other tofu and cheese-less options really make it easy. Keep up the great work! read more

I used to come here all the time and it was great. It's been about a year or two now and it's completely changed. They no longer have waitstaff, it's all order through phone which doesn't let you make modifications like crispy or well done etc. we waited for about 30 min to be seated which is fine but when we ordered we got our food at different times. My friend was almost done with his meal before his wife's food came. Even the food was just ok - and maybe it always was just ok but I remember the staff really taking care of you here and now that's just gone. I would no longer recommend this as a good spot to go for a good meal. read more

Came with my family and little kids I have to say the food was amazing and the service was spectacular.

I highly recommend recommended place especially for families. Jeff is a gem! read more

Cute spot! The vibe is laid back. The place has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We ate outside in the covered area parallel to the sidewalk which was nice. The inside gave local diner brunch vibes--not the most aesthetic but still exudes a certain ambiance. You order via QR code which was an efficient system. I got the red bell pepper soup which I think was a special--it was delicious... the green drizzle flavor complimented the soup nicely. The Orange Whip Creamsicle was a ripoff. It cost $8! I was expecting something more, and I also thought it tasted odd... kind of like a garden. The service was great. If you're in Sherman Oaks and looking for a chill breakfast, I recommend this spot. read more

Look - the food is great. The coffee - a little too strong. The prices are steep considering the pain in the rear that their ordering system is. During the pandemic Blu Jam decided to do away with servers taking your order and implemented that whole QR code menu - order via app system. The problem is, that they've kept this system. It's highly annoying and keeps us from fully enjoying our meals with them because you can't even order a side of avocado in the middle of your meal! You have to pull out the phone - order your food - have an account if you don't feel like re-entering your CC information. AND you have to tip when you order - before you even get your drinks. So what do you do if you aren't happy with the service? It used to be my favorite brunch spot. Now it's just annoying and I only go when the one kid who fiends for the crunchy french toast promises to do extra chores. Please please please go back to using servers to take orders, Blu Jam! read more

Blu Jam is always a reliable brunch spot. The ambiance is lovely with so many outdoor tables & shade, the staff is always kind and the food is delicious. Sometimes there's a wait but it usually goes faster than expected. You can now just order and pay from a QR code on the table so it's pretty quick. Some of our favorites are the migas (always suggest these over the chilaquiles), the grilled cheese which is to die for, the hangover scramble, and of course their gem, the French toast. Perfectly crunchy as it is delicious with the best vanilla sauce. They also have an excellent French press option that is pretty reasonably priced. Great spot for friends, family, dates etc. read more

Brought my friends here & they all loved it! I was just disappointed at my burrito. Since I'm vegan I made a soyrizo burrito but if I hadn't added that it wouldn't have had anything. It's my fault though, they did have a wrap or vegetarian wrap option & it would've came with more stuff. But I wish there was someone to guide than just ordering through qr code. Food was good but more attention to the table of 12 would've been nice. read more
