We had brunch at Blue Daisy in Santa Monica, and every bite reminded us why this place deserves five stars. We ordered the scrambled eggs with prosciutto and the smoked salmon crepe, and both dishes showed real quality in the ingredients. The eggs were perfectly soft and creamy, paired beautifully with the salty richness of the prosciutto. Get the smoked salmon crepe. The delicate crepe, fresh salmon... everything tasted like it was made with care. Everyone was super friendly and it was just a cute place to enjoy time together. You can really tell the difference when a place uses high quality ingredients instead of cutting corners. Every component felt intentional. This is exactly the kind of brunch spot worth seeking out in Santa Monica. Highly recommend. read more

Blue Daisy in Santa Monica looks the part. The location on Broadway is charming, the decor is cute and well done, and the outdoor seating with fringed umbrellas gives it a breezy California vibe that draws you in. Unfortunately the experience didn't live up to the setting. We ordered the Breakfast Burrito ($20) and the Breakfast Combo ($20) and waited about 30 minutes for the food to arrive. The burrito came with eggs, bacon, meatsauce, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, mix cheese and a side of salsa and fries. The combo came with eggs, bacon, French toast and fruit -- and honestly the bacon was the highlight of the dish, which says a lot about how the rest of it landed. Both plates were average at best -- lacking flavor and nothing you couldn't find at any neighborhood breakfast spot for considerably less money. The Breakfast Combo was on the smaller side for the price, and the seasoned fries, while fine, were nothing special. Then came the situation that truly ruined the experience. Our food had literally just been set down in front of us when our waitress informed us she was leaving her shift and that we needed to pay immediately -- citing "company policy." We had just received our food. We hadn't even taken a bite. We complied, paid, and she left. The whole interaction felt deeply uncomfortable -- as if she assumed we weren't going to pay, which was both insulting and embarrassing. We flagged down the manager, who was standing just six feet away, and explained what had happened. To his credit he tried to rectify the situation, but by that point the damage was done. We were embarrassed, uncomfortable, and just wanted to leave. What should have been a relaxed breakfast in a beautiful setting turned into something none of us wanted to linger over. At $20 per plate in Santa Monica you expect bold flavors, generous portions, and service that makes you feel welcome. Blue Daisy delivered none of the three. Pretty spot, deeply disappointing experience. read more

I would say this is one of my favorite breakfast options in Santa Monica and in West LA in general. They have some really unique menu items and the inside has a really great atmosphere along with great service. We were lucky enough to find a metered street spot directly in front of the restaurant and did not have to wait long at all for our Saturday morning brunch for a table of two. Our server was also very polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. I started off with the Iced Maple Latte and thought it was really nice. It was a really sweet treat and I enjoyed it. For my breakfast, I chose the Eggs Benedict with the Sujuk sausage and added avocado and croissant. It was one of the best combos I've had in a long time and I am already eager to go back again to get it. I would highly recommend to everyone and would happily say this is one of my favorite breakfast options around. read more

Found this place on yelp and the reviews was great and that helped us find a breakfast place nearby Guerlain Wellness Spa where we have our spa appointment today. From walking in, I could sense a good-positive vibe that this place was legit-good. Customer service was spectacular. Waiter who helped us did a great job serving our table. Their coffee is great...it's not your typical watered-down coffeen it's actually potent and good. They have a great selection of drinks from coffee to lattes and other the types of drinks. My wife ordered lavender latte and she LOVED. Oh, and my coffee was great and loved the lil touch of the small lil cookie that came with my coffee... very thoughtful and going the extra steps to make my coffee experience through the roof-good and it's the lil things in food service that I greatly appreciate and sounds off my customers service bell like how they have it at Home Depot. I would definitely recommend this place and I would definitely come back to try other items like lunch time and pancakes. Love the ambience of the place and the surrounding area is nice and clean...well, it's Santa Monica once of the nicest neighborhoods in Cali...thank God. We both order avacados toast as we wanted something light and filling as we have a couple's message in an hour...perfect choice if message is your next item on your agenda. This place blew my mind. I've had many avacados toast in my life and this is one of my favorite things I like to eat for breakfast and this by far the best one I ever ate besides my homemade avacados toast. Love the break they used to...a lot like a cranberry sorodough that was slight crunchy and soft. Loved the perfect amount of greens that made it so easy to grab and get a nice full bites and still taste the lil freshness from the greens and the feta cheese with the pistachio which I think was brilliant addition and first time ever had pistachios...cause the creamy-nutty-and the flavor of the pistachio took this simple avacado toast to a whole another level with that balsamic vinaigrette tanginess and I believe there was honey too...bunch of different flavors brings a great combination into this delicious bite. And to add that over easy egg on top...man I was in heaven with every bite of this avotoast. Thank you for an amazing breakfast and we would love to come back whenever we're in Santa Monica. Great food, great location, and the service was read more

Blue daisy exemplifies an aesthetic, overpriced, and mediocre at best brunch experience. I came on a Sunday around 12 and was seated right away. I was seated outside with a view of a busy road intersection, which made for nice people watching. The menu didn't have any stand-out dishes that you couldn't find at any other brunch place and there were barely any savory vegetarian options. I went with the Napa scramble. The scramble itself was very heavy on the spinach and light on the sun-dried tomatoes, which made for a not great texture and duller flavor. I did appreciate the bites with the creamy, tangy goat cheese. The toast was just ok and the strawberry jam it came with was very runny. I did enjoy the fresh greens on the side that were lightly dressed. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would... Over priced food that came out bland. I waited 25/30min for potatoes and bacon, the bacon was clearly sitting for a long time and was practically chicharrones... Oh by the way, your staff made me feel uncomfortable the way the men stared at me and gathered to come take a peak at who was sitting at the bar. Have they never seen a woman before? Completely inappropriate! read more

A very average brunch place. The food was alright but way too overpriced. Nothing special. The ambience was okay. The furniture was a little scuffed up and wobbly. The service was good. But overall not worth it. I think the burrito was $18 and the shakshuka $16 so way too much for the taste and quality read more

I recently rediscovered this place, and it's by far my favorite breakfast spot in Santa Monica. The wait staff is friendly and attentive, and there's both indoor and outdoor seating. The back patio is especially lovely; modern yet cozy, with thoughtful decor. The food blends California-fresh ingredients with Turkish and Middle Eastern flair. I especially enjoy the zucchini fritters and sausage patties, and the chicken mango salad is excellent as well. The drink menu is equally fun, with a unique variety of milks like pistachio and walnut, paired with creative beverage options. Weekdays are definitely easier since it's less crowded, but the food is consistently great no matter when you go. read more

Our favorite new brunch spot ! The service is impeccable! The food is delicious and they do not skimp on their portions. They have a huge menu for food and yummy lattes and iced teas. I got the brunch crepe and a matcha latte. It was delicious. Parking is pretty easy with meters all around. The manager Raphael is hands down the best!! read more

Blue Daisy - Brunch crepe with bacon - Creperies Near Me - Santa Monica, California

After trying the Melrose location I wanted to try Santa Monica! The area is super cute and not too hard to find meter parking, even for Sunday brunch. The vibe is really pretty, though some tables are a bit challenging to fit a larger party of 6. There were suuuuper cute outdoor plants in the middle of the tables so it was hard to see and hear the whole party. Thankfully, the staff were so nice and accommodating and let us move to a booth where we could combine tables! The team here were really friendly and food service was very fast - I'd come back just for the excellent service. The menu, however, has a lot of fun options! I ordered a pumpkin spice latte for the spirit of the season and the mango chicken salad, which was so refreshing and paired so well with the avocado and mustard dressing! read more

Meh. It's a cute outdoor patio, French vibes. However, you're really just looking out on a busy intersection of cars. We did not do the $29 bottomless mimosa offer, but that's a great deal. Service was ok, it wasn't super busy while we were here. I had the pistachio matcha, which was delicious. The menu left a little bit to be desired. I saw the ricotta berry crepe on Yelp, but they don't have it anymore. Nearly all of the sweet crepe/pancake/french toast items involved banana, which doesn't please everyone in my group. I ended up getting the strawberry and banana nutella crepe, which was exactly as it sounds. Those are the ingredients. It was good, but nothing special. I would come back here in a pinch, but believe there are other brunch options nearby that are more innovative at the same price point. read more

This cute little cafe in Santa Monica is nice spot for a little breakfast, coffee or brunch. Offering crepes, eggs, avocado toast, cocktails, and espresso drinks, there are options for everyone. I had the shakshuka, which fell short (lacking Zatar and Mediterranean flavors I was hoping for.) All in all, I would not go back unless I lived in the neighborhood. read more

Perfectly average. Decent food but everything is over $15. The service is also unreasonably slow. Took me an hour to get my food on a weekday for lunch. Chicken shawarma wrap: 8/10 Chicken was tender and plentiful. I liked the cut up vegetables too. It needed a little something else though because it was kind of dull. Maybe another sauce to make it less dry as well. read more

Blue Daisy - Chicken Shawarma Wrap - Creperies Near Me - Santa Monica, California

This place was a solid brunch, nothing special, I'd say though. The croissant french toast was what you'd expect, very sweet, and very good to be honest. If you have a sweet tooth in the mornings, it's for you! The drink I got was a baklava iced latte, unfortunately the ice had melted all the ice when I got it. So half the drink was warm and the very top had a little ice left. Not what you'd want in a nicer latte. It tasted fine though and the waitress brought me an extra cup of ice to pour it in. The salmon eggs Benedict was solid. The zucchini hashbrowns were actually one of the best things we had lol. It was a side for the eggs Benedict. The matcha was satisfactory. I'm not a matcha guy but my fiancé liked it fine. Not her favorite or anything. The bacon crepe was rather overcooked and dry. Not what you'd want from a crepe. Though it was generously stuffed with eggs bacon and cheese, which all went well together of course. Overall this place is worth trying because of their unique lattes and sides, just maybe not an all out brunch! read more

Food is MID. And expensive. I got eggs Benedict with "house" patties. One egg yolk was overcooked. Patties were dry and full of pepper. Potatoes were barely warm. The next time I ordered Salmon Bagel - very average, good amount of salmon, gross raw onions. This is the type of bagel I can make myself at home without any cooking experience. And I ve tried better ones. The interior is cool, the place is loved by locals, I see people coming there. Service was good too. But the food is average and price is high. Not recommended read more

Just moved to downtown Santa Monica and have been exploring all the local brunch spots -- and Blue Daisy Café is easily one of my favorites so far! It's super walkable from my new place, which already gives it bonus points, but everything from the food to the vibe made it such a great experience. The outdoor seating is perfect -- plenty of tables with great shade coverage, and such a prime spot for people watching. There's a relaxed, beachy energy to the space, and it feels like one of those spots where you could sit for hours chatting with friends or just soaking in the Santa Monica sunshine. Now for the food -- absolutely incredible. The Nutty Banana Pancake is a must-try: fluffy, nutty, and perfectly sweet without being heavy. The Pistachio Latte with whipped cold foam blew me away -- creamy, flavorful, and not too sugary. I could honestly drink that every day. I also tried the Breakfast Burrito, which was packed with flavor and came with a side of seasoned fries that were perfectly crispy and addictive (seriously, get the fries!). On top of all that, the service was fantastic. Everyone was super friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed happy to be there -- which makes such a difference. Between the food, the location, and the good vibes, Blue Daisy is going to be one of my go-to weekend brunch spots. Highly recommend the pancake, latte, and burrito combo -- you can't go wrong! read more

Solid little spot for coffee and breakfast. Wandered over here since I was in the area taking care of some things, and glad i stopped in! To start they have a nice little outdoor area to sit in with your party, and the staff here are all super nice! I've been seeing Turkish Coffee over socials, and wanted to go ahead and try that here. I'm not sure if theyre making it in the sand like they do in the videos but I got the turkish latte, and this thing is massive, but to go with that massive size is this thing is all flavor and delicious. If im in the area im stopping by to get this every time. I did end up getting some food as well. the Eggs benedict was top notch. Straight forward, perfectly poached eggs and a hollandaise sauce full of flavor. Glad I stopped in here. Really good place for breakfast or coffee, and an overall vibe. Check this place out! read more

This spot has become one of our favorite places for breakfast in Los Angeles. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, beautifully decorated, and always spotless. From the moment you walk in, you feel relaxed and welcomed -- it's the kind of place that instantly puts you in a good mood and makes the whole morning feel special. The service is consistently excellent. Everyone on the team is friendly, attentive, and genuinely cares about creating a great experience. You can really feel their kindness and professionalism from start to finish. The food is absolutely delicious. Everything is fresh, well-seasoned, and beautifully prepared. You can taste the quality in every bite. The portions are just right, and the flavors are balanced in a way that feels comforting but still elevated. The drinks were just as impressive -- refreshing, flavorful, and perfectly made. They pair so well with the dishes and really complete the whole breakfast experience. This was my first visit, but I left completely satisfied. It is one of those spots we keep coming back to because the atmosphere, the service, and the food are amazing. If you're looking for a breakfast place that feels special, welcoming, and delicious every time, this is definitely the one. read more

Found Blue Daisy on yelp while searching for brunch in SaMo. Arrived at the restaurant around 10:30 am and it was pretty empty, we were allowed to choose where we wanted to sit. We spotted a door leading to an outdoor patio area so we decided to seat ourselves there. Instead of physical menus, there are QR codes you scan to view online. After ordering, it took around 15 minutes to get our food. Our server was the sweetest and very friendly. We ordered the Napa Scramble, Zatar Eggs and a half order of pancakes. My friend who normally orders eggs / scrambles for breakfast said the Napa scramble was solid. I really enjoyed the zaatar eggs, it was a nice twist to incorporate Turkish sausage. Pancakes were pretty much your normal pancakes -- met my expectations. Overall the food didn't disappoint and we were glad we picked Blue Daisy, though I think the nice weather + cute outdoor seating played a big role in my impression. The total came out to be around $70 after tip, a bit steep but also pretty on par for brunch I suppose. Would totally recommend for a cute outing with friends, especially the outdoor patio seating! read more

Stopped in for brunch -- very average. On the normal-expensive side for LA. Got Eggs Benedict, it was just fine. Kind of bland/didn't have much flavor or interest. Tried a savory crepe too and it was also very bland/unmemorable. The Service and Ambiance was also very average. Wouldn't avoid it but wouldn't go out of my way to go again. read more

Everyone was offering me water as a waited and the breakfast burrito came out fast. It tasted great. The salad was great too the dressing they gave with it was yummy. I had a green sauce with the burrito very yummy. I hate when burritos have too much potato and when it's soft and this one has crispy pieces in it that made it great for texture. Great service and great food and the place is really cute inside! read more

This was a really sweet find. They have gluten-free options for crêpes and other dishes, including French toast. We ordered the gluten-free French toast and the bacon crêpe to share. The portion sizes were large, for sharing so it was nice to have some variety. The crêpe came with a salad, which was really good--I loved the dressing. The French toast was served with bananas and fresh strawberries, which made it even more enjoyable to have the fresh fruit. The waiters were very nice and helpful, but there was a slight delay in service. I had to ask for a menu and the check twice, even though it wasn't super busy at the time due to the fires and wind storm nearby. The food did come quickly, once we got the menus and ordered. We found parking on the street, which cost about $2.50 an hour, and we needed about an hour for the whole meal. I'm not sure if there was other parking nearby, but it wasn't hard to find. My daughter really enjoyed this spot, and so did I. If it hadn't been so windy, we would've loved to sit outside. While everything else was wonderful, the delay in getting menus and the check are why I gave them four out of five stars. Overall, our experience was delightful, and we would definitely return. read more
