    For the once proud Promenade - this place is a pretty good option. My only complaint is that the seating sucks The food is solid. I have a hella high spice tolerance and I could feel some heat from the Habenero chicken sandwich so that was a win. The portion sizes are decent, food is fresh and the staff was friendly. I'd come back here no doubt.

    BREAKFAST BURRITO CHICKEN & WAFFLE
    Jiliza N.

    I got the chicken waffle sandwich & it was everything I hoped for. Crispy + juicy chicken with just the right amount of spice! Sndwiched between perfectly toasted waffles. The syrup brought it all together in that sweet + savory way that's just so good! My friend got the breakfast burrito, which was super filling & packed with delicious flavors, also a great choice! It's an order-at-the-counter & find-your-own-seat type of place. Seating is mostly outdoor patio-style... casual, open seating with a laid-back vibe. The spot is tucked into a cute shopping center that's just a short walk from the beach, but parking can be tricky. No validation here.. street parking is competitive. We found a nearby parking structure and paid just $2 though, so it worked out!

    Seriously the best fried chicken nuggets I've ever eaten
    Buck W.

    My first visit. Impulse visit. Starving and it was there. I had the buttermilk fried chicken salad. It had avocado and sliced eggs and a creamy delicious dressing. The guy was super nice. The place wasn't packed which suited me just fine. Quite frankly, the fried chicken nuggets were the best fried chicken I've ever eaten. Seriously. I took a catering menu because I can imagine a bucket or tray of these with a row of dipping sauces. Great place.

    Chicken fingers

    We were recently at the pier and the kids were getting hungry. The lines were too long and the kids aren't seafood fans. So we headed over to 3rd street in search of some different options. We passed by this place and it looked inviting. So we gave it a try. Inside is a decent amount of seating. Even during the dinner rush we were able to find a table. It was pretty clean considering its location and the amount of foot traffic. The staff shined. Very helpful and willing to explain to options to us. The kids kept changing their minds about the sauces and the staff was patient through that process. As to the food, the chicken was moist and juicy. The flavor on the chicken fingers is a bit different than your typical Canes or chicken finger joint. It has a more herbs and spices. The adults enjoyed the flavor but it was a bit strong for the kids. The kids chicken nugget meal though was fantastic. The waffle fries stole the show. Crispy, hot and delicious. And a great value. We bought each of the kids a meal, but they easily could have split one. If you're in the area and want some great tasting chicken, definitely give it a try!

    Holy chicken!
    Amy L.

    I loved it at bruxie. The waffles are so crispy and even have a nice crunch. I got the holy chicken! and the chicken and waffles!! Both 5/5 the holy chicken! Is so good with the wafffles as part of the "sandwitch/taco" It's open seating and you order at the counter. You can also get it to go. The special maple syrup is really tasty! Service was quick and you can self serve water. I would deff go back! Good vibes

    THE ORIGINAL

    Questionable customer service.. We came home after ordering a super Kluss and grilled chicken ranch sandwich and we came home and the super clucks did not have our bacon and egg. Our server was Natalie and we called the store to speak with her who we were able to speak with a manager by the name of Alex. He said we would be refunded and it never came. I never try to fault servers for mistakes and we should have double checked our order before leaving, but mistakes happen on both ends! I think what made this a bitter experience was that they said they were going to fix the mistake and did not customer service is a huge attribute that makes people come again The ambiance was not busy at the time we came & the location was clean. This is not my first time coming here, so I know that this may have been a one time thing, so I will may try & visit again

    April 2025 menu

    Their menu needs to be a little larger for us with bad eyesight, haha! Had to take a photo of the menu to see what item I wanted to order. After getting rained out near the beach, friends and I decided to walk towards Third Street and get some brunch. Not too many places were open at 10 am on Saturday, but thankfully Bruxie was. We ordered at the register and grabbed a seat while waiting for our food. We all ended up ordering the Super Cluck ($16) because who can say no to a waffle, fried chicken, and fried egg? If you're not super hungry, best to split with a friend so you are not food comatose afterwards. I was hungry and ate it all, though I did feel so full afterwards and appreciated the walk back to my car.

    "GRILLED CHEESE" WAFFLE SANDWICH with sausage
    KayAnna S.

    While everything on their menu looks amazing (and tastes great too), I hands down recommend their breakfast burrito. Get every sauce too, they are all so good. My husband had his grilled cheese waffle sandwich and he loved it, but as soon as he took a bite of my burrito, he knew the truth. Immediately he went to go order a burrito for himself. Bruxie knows what they are doing for sure.

    Super Cluck and Waffle Fries

    [ Food ] We ordered the Super Cluck and Waffle Fries; the sandwich was pretty good and the fries were standard. [ Service ] Customer service is good and the food came out pretty quick. [ Parking ] We parked at the Santa Monica Place parking lot, which is free for the first 90 minutes. [ Restroom ] There is a restroom.

    I think the food is good, and I enjoyed my chicken waffle sandwich that also came with an egg. All the ingredients went well together. But it became hard to enjoy the meal when we kept having to deal with homeless individuals coming in and just thrashing the place. They don't even just sit; they literally just trash the place or get into arguments with the staff. Made enjoying my meal very hard. One homeless lady came in and just sat down and tried to put her cans into a bag she asked the front desk for. Turned out those cans were stolen from the store next door. We know this because the manager from next door came and confronted her in the restaurant. The lady responded by slapping the manager, all this while next to us. Staff did nothing but watch, and it was just all uncomfortable all around. I can't say these are the kind of shows I enjoy with my lunch. -_- On the plus side, the strawberry shake is good! And my kids did enjoy the tenders. Pro tip: ask for the spicy honey sauce for your sandwich! Bomb! Won't be back to this location though.

Was tempted to get the blueberry fresh toast when I looked at another table, but decided on the stone pot , and glad I did. It was delicious, and the portion was generous. Not a place I'll eat at regularly because it exceeded our copper breakfast budget LOL. But definitely worth it when I want to treat myself or someone special

A little on the watery side. Chicken bites came out in about 15 minutes. The coating had a very satisfying crunch, very saucy, but fell off the chicken easily and was a bit salty. This is a messy dish for sure. You will get your hands dirty! Chorizo Benedict came out about 30 minutes after order. Not great honestly. Portion size was generous. The eggs were poached decently, still runny, but the chorizo itself was bland and rather dry. The potatoes were room temperature. The bread a bit too chewy. Not AT ALL spicy. Super light on the pico de gallo. The service was rather slow for not being very busy. They didn't appear to be understaffed either. The location itself is cozy and not too loud, which is nice! Short walk from down town. The staff was kind, but boy were they slow. From being seated to paying for my meal was well over an hour! Automatic 2.5% "service fee" total was $46.50 before tip. I don't think I'll be returning unfortunately. The search for a good Benedict in LA area continues!
