I forgot exactly how I first stumbled upon Cafe de Olla, but I've come here with my family a few times, and we've definitely decided this location is better than the Monrovia one. First, their cafe de olla is absolutely delicious. This remains one of the only places where I genuinely enjoy ordering cafe de olla. Second, their food is incredible. They serve excellent portions, everything tastes fresh, and the food is just so good. I've had their taquitos and chilaquiles, and both were delicious. The only downside is that every time I've come, there has usually been a bit of a wait, especially because the restaurant itself is pretty small with limited seating. The inside is cute, but small, so we usually end up sitting outside. This is where their Monrovia location does have the advantage because it has much more space. Parking can also be tricky. Good luck finding a spot close enough where you don't have to walk far. We usually end up parking in the residential area around the corner. That said, the staff are wonderful and always try to be as accommodating as possible despite how busy they are. Highly recommend this place if you're okay with possibly waiting a bit for seating. The food and cafe de olla are worth it. read more

I really wanted to love this place because the menu looked incredible and we were seated almost immediately. Unfortunately, the service completely ruined the experience. We came in on a Monday around 11:00 a.m., so it wasn't during a major rush. After ordering, we waited about 25 minutes for our food. While that was longer than expected, we were willing to overlook it. What happened next was much more disappointing. After our food arrived, we ate for about 20 minutes and realized no one had checked on us--not once. We never got a water refill, no one asked if we needed anything, and we couldn't even get someone's attention despite waiting and looking around. It honestly felt like we had been forgotten. In fact, we waited over 20 minutes just be be asked if we wanted boxes to go. We literally pushed the food away from our front JUST to see if someone would come and check on us. The food itself was good, but good food can only make up for so much. Service is a huge part of the dining experience, and this visit fell far short. I hope this was just an off day because the restaurant has so much potential, but based on this experience, I'll think twice before returning. read more

Now I know why this place always has a long wait. Hot tip: You can join the waitlist on Yelp before you get there! I came with a friend who is a regular and she gave me a lot of good recommendations of what to order. The menu is quite large, filled with tons of delicious Mexican breakfast options! I'm a big machaca fan, so that's what I ordered. As an appetizer, we got the molletitos with chorizo and OMG! It was absolutely delicious. I got to taste my friend's huevos divorciados and the sauce was so delicious. My machaca was different than what I have had at other restaurants, a little on the dry side, but I enjoyed it. Loved the rice and beans it came with! Another highlight was the Cafe de Olla itself! I think I downed like 4 cups of it, it was so delicious. Service here was fantastic. Highly recommend! read more

All right first of all let me just see we got there right on time we got served thankfully it was only two of us. We got seated right away. We stood outside sidewalk to which was nice surprisingly. I got my food and my boyfriend got his food it was really good actually I'm pretty sure I got the Chilaquiles, but I forgot the specific name. But who cares because it was delicious lol. As we waited to get her food, we saw the amount of people that came here to eat. Definitely worth it. Cute spot. We took some coffee to go. Definitely we will be back.:) read more

Stopped by to get breakfast. We could tell it was busy and there were a few people waiting outside. We were only a party of 3 so we weren't trying to wait too long..We asked them how long the wait would be, they told us 20 minutes and put us on the list. We waited 45 and right before we went to walk away they hurried and got us a table inside. The pancakes were bland and dense. Everything was pretty subpar.. The Chilaquiles were the only thing that were good. The place is small and quaint. I really wanted to like it. But I couldn't finish my food. read more

Cafe De Olla - Bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns. Banana peanut butter French Toast. Suizos Chilaquiles. Pancakes. - American Near Me - Burbank, California

I got on the waitlist online around 10:15am. Said about 12-12:30pm I get it busy. Checked in around 12:15pm said 20 minute wait, cool. Took 45 min to sit us. Because I actually had to go ask again. How much longer. Then all of a sudden oh just ready in a min, when there was clearly 3 empty table for about 10 minutes. So got seated at 1pm from 10:15am reservation... 3hr wait um I don't think so. And then not once did they check up on us if we needed any refill or anything else.... Smh Food was ok, I ordered a simple burrito and eggs were a bit under cooked. Overall bad experience... read more

Cafe De Olla is a Burbank staple. I've been going to Cafe De Olla for quite some time now and they don't miss. Their food is amazing. I always get their Chilaquiles and Chocolate Chip Pancakes with an Iced Cafe De Olla. They have different sauces for their chilaquiles and each one is so good. The pancakes are always warm and fluffy. Service is top tier. Everyone is so welcoming and tries to accommodate you in a timely manner as they do get really busy. Ambiance is great. A cozy breakfast spot with seating inside and some outside. It's on the smaller side so it does get packed. I would recommend being there early. Overall , I'll always tell people to try Cafe De Olla if they haven't yet. It's that good and I'll always come back. read more

Cafe De Olla - American Near Me - Burbank, California

Decided to stop by here on a Saturday morning. This cafe has an option to get in line online before arriving so you don't have to wait as long which I like. It was busy but they move fast so we only waited about 20 min. Parking can be a little difficult as it's only street parking. I got the Paisano omlette, I loved how they added the salsa and cheese to imitate the Mexican flag! The omelette had shredded beef that was loaded with all the condiments inside. It is served with a side of hashbrowns that were cooked nice and crispy. I also got a side of pancakes that come with 2. They were cooked very fluffy and buttery. Overall I love coming to cafe de olla! read more

I really enjoyed this spot! It was a bit of a wait even on a weekday but it was definitely worth it. The staff were friendly just running around due to how busy it was. It was also a pretty small place so that's also probably why they can't seat many people. I would definitely return, it was so fresh and tasty. It really was spicy! I loved that kick and how it was still edible without spice taking over. The cafe de olla was so tasty too, I usually don't drink coffee but I will now! read more

First time eating here with friends and I really enjoyed it. My friend put our name down on the waitlist via Yelp while driving and we waited approximately 10 minutes to be seated. Once the table was ready, they called us and sat us down. We ordered and the food came out extremely fast. Whoever is running the kitchen definitely knows what they're doing! I ordered the chorizo burrito with hash brown from their breakfast menu and the cafe de olla. The burrito was fresh and hot with a good kick in spice - the perfect size too. Eating it with the included salsa, it was great! The cafe de Olla was delicious too with a good amount of cinnamon and not overly sweet either. Going to be adding this place to the family's rotation now. It's great, but can get packed as eating is very limited. Street parking is available too. Can't wait to come back! Service was great too! read more

I went for brunch during the week when it would be less crowded, wait time for a table wasn't long and we were able to snag a seat inside. Our server Matt came to the table right away, grabbed our drinks and answered some questions I had about the menu. I ended up grabbing the poblano chilaquiles (green sauce) it came with rice and creamy beans to dip the chips in. It was delicious, lots of chips so I didn't finish it all but was really good. My cousin got a veggie breakfast wrap and an iced coffee, she said both were really good! They also have gluten free pancakes ($2+ up charge) and will accommodate if you have any allergies, just notify the server. Overall service was great, food was delicious. Seating is limited both inside and outside. Parking is street only, I did find a spot off to the side in the neighborhood with a short walk to the restaurant. **When checking in, note that your whole party needs to be there when the table is ready. They won't seat you before hand. read more

We've been here multiple times in the morning and always come back for the chilaquiles -- every version we've tried has been amazing. Great flavor, fresh ingredients, and solid portions. We haven't tried their pancakes and other sweet breakfast items yet, but they look really good and are definitely on our list for next time. It's a small, cozy spot, so during busy hours you may have a short wait. A lot of people also stop in to grab coffee and fresh baked goods to go, which shows how popular this place is. Friendly staff, great cozy vibes, and consistently good food. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area. read more

I've been to the Cafe De Olla in Monrovia, but the one in Burbank is the OG location. It's smaller with a few tables inside and out on the sidewalk. I can see how the wait can be super long here during peak times since the cafe has such few tables. As we came later in the day, we were able to get a table pretty quickly. Plus we got on the Yelp Waitlist so that probably helped. Parking is available only if you're lucky to find a spot in the street. The restroom is tiny and not wheelchair accessible. Pastries for sale are displayed in a vintage cupboard (like those cupboards in your abuelita's living room). Love the extensive menu and brunch that is available all day. I live for their hot Cafe de Olla (they also offer it in iced) and downed a few mugs during my meal - so so good! My friend and I shared the Chipotle Chicken Sandwich and the Banana Pecan French Toast. Both were 5/5 - so yummy! Only downside is that service is slow, I had to wait a while for our server to come back and get refills, boxes, the check, etc. Our server was MIA for so long that I ended up asking another server for help. read more

This place is tiny so I cannot tell you how important it is to get on the wait-list before you arrive. That being said the food is pretty good, the chorizo is excellent and the chilaquiles are done well and stay crispy for quite some time. I don't recommend beef here other than as machaca it isn't the best cut so it can be hit and miss. The French toast and pancakes really are done well, presented beautifully and worth getting. The cafe de olla is always really good, the perfect blend of spices every time whether iced or hot it's a must try. Fair warning it is a bit sweet. Beans, rice and omelettes are always done well and full of flavors, with crisp veggies and never too spicy. This place always has excellent service I've never had a bad experience. Because it's so small bear in mind it may get loud when you sit inside, sidewalk dining is a good option if you're a large party. read more

I've been meaning to try this spot for a minute! We put our name on the list and were told it would be a 45 minute wait!!!! We were wanting to try it, so decided to wait, but did run across the street to get coffee, so we unfortunately didn't try any of the drinks at Cafe de Olla. The servers were friendly and the menu was awesome. My boyfriend and I split the chorreadas, which were SO so good! Great flavor! And my boyfriend got the chilaquiles divorciados with habanero and poblano sauces. This was excellent and the rice and beans were so good. I ordered the all-in-one burrito, which didn't have as much flavor compared to the other two items we got, so it fell a little flat for me, but is otherwise a fine option! This would be great for someone who is worried about something being spicy, but wanting a filling option. I think I will try chilaquiles next time, though. The menu is awesome, so it's totally worth a wait. read more

Really good!! I ordered the sopes with beef. They are small medium size, for me like 4/5 bites. Some reviews said they were super small and I don't think the are. The sauce they give you in the little metal cup is so good!! Some main criticism - I hate that it has cucumbers that is noooot normal for me. I also hate that the onions are not picked! The menu says they are pickled. Other than that their cafe de olla is really good and I would go back! read more

Honestly, this is the worst review I've ever left for a restaurant. The chilaquiles had absolutely no flavor, and the beans were so watery they tasted like soup. I waited 25 minutes for an overpriced meal that was completely bland. I don't recommend this place. Don't waste your money here--you're honestly better off having breakfast at McDonald's. I'm Mexican and this food has no seasoning and no flavor. It tastes like cardboard. Definitely not worth the money. read more

We went late in the afternoon and there was seating but also surprisingly busy for a small spot. I understand why though. I had the chilaquiles and they were so good.

Such a great little gem! Authentic Mexican café vibes with breakfast, lunch, and dinner served all day. It gets busy, but I came after a morning run and was seated right away. The Café de Olla is a must sweet, cinnamon, and perfect on its own (hot or iced). I ordered the breakfast omelette and enjoyed it; I recommend the breakfast sausage over the shredded beef since the beef was a bit dry. Service was warm and welcoming, and the café feels cozy and comfortable. I'll definitely be back can't wait to bring my boyfriend next time. read more

We couldn't stop craving the enchiladas from our first visit. The sauces are incredibly flavorful and vibrant, way beyond your typical Mexican spot.

The staff recommended it on our first visit and it did not disappoint. The menu is huge with something for everyone. If you're in Burbank and want authentic traditional Mexican cuisine, this is your spot. Already planning visit number three! read more

TLDR: 4.5/5 - Great service, ample parking, and tasty food This place as been on my list for forever and a day! I went ahead and put myself on the waitlist actually before I got there for my ideal time and I was there just in time for my name to be at the top of the list. I'd reccommend putting yourself on the waitlist if you can before coming here! Ordered: Huevos Rancheros - 4/5 It was my first time having this so I can't make much of an assessment but in my opinion it was pretty darn good! It wasn't spicy at all but good flavor throughout and actually pretty filling once you got through all of it. The fresh tortillas on the side are everything! Service: 5/5 The were super nice and accommodating! They came often to check in on us. I also didn't feel too rushed to be there given how busy it was. Ambiance: 3/5 Its a bit of a crabshoot. The inside is quite small which could be difficult with a bigger crowd but outside there's on a few tables and you just have to deal with the foot traffic of it all (ie. people standing around/near you, possible children crying). So I wouldn't say its the most quaint place to be in despite the presentation but there's a reason why its popular Parking: 4/5 - Its a good place to be at for burbank. You have a good amount of street parking and surrounding neighborhoods to choose from. I'd probably go back when its not as crowded! Good stuff! read more

Came here for a girl's brunch, and we are so glad we did! Cafe De Olla has been a place I've wanted to visit for a while now, and it did not disappoint! We got the Sweet Temptation French toast, the Very Berry French toast, and the Chilaquiles Divorciados. Parking was easy to find (street parking) and we didn't have to wait long for our table. The staff are all very friendly! We asked our waiter for suggestions and he was very helpful. Two of us were feeing sweet, one was feeling savory, and there were plenty of options on the menu. I got the Sweet Temptation French toast. This was delicious. The Dulce de Lèche was rich, but balanced out with the acidity from the strawberries. The French toast was exactly as you would imagine, cooked well and had a nice flavor. The French toast came with a side of eggs, meat, and potatoes. I chose over medium eggs, bacon, and hash browns. My eggs were cooked right, the bacon was crispy without being brittle, and the hash browns were perfect. Definitely worth it! My friends got the Very Berry French toast and the Chilaquiles Divorciados. They both said theirs were delicious as well. The ambience of the restaurant is clean and nice. There's seating indoors and outdoors, we chose to eat inside. The waiter checked on us a few times to make sure we were still doing okay, and we never felt rushed. Overall, I would definitely recommend Cafe De Olla. I'll be back to try their other menu items (: read more

I want to give love to the staff/location etc. but this spot was not for me. We checked in on Yelp and got a table pretty quickly when we arrived! Love it. 5 stars for location/staff/cute decor. Their cafe Olla was eh. Not crazy about it. I've had better coffee. The cinnamon was nice, but everything else was water/milky/sugary but bland. Food also bland. I make better eggs and bacon at home. The thing that really threw it off this beautiful Monday morning was the clientele. The table next to us was going through child custody issues. This place is small and everything is heard. Then another mother got upset because they didn't have room for her sedan sized stroller. Again the staff was so nice. Food was okay. Customers/clientele of this spot just came off as miserable. read more

Ordered takeout on a weekend since the dine-in wait was too long. We got the Deli Kids (over-medium egg, banana with Nutella, and an apple juice), an iced café de olla, the club sandwich with fries, and a side of French toast. The drinks were really good and the sandwich was solid. The Deli Kids was just okay. It's also pretty pricey for what you get, so I'm not totally sure why this place is so popular, maybe it's just one of those trendy spots. I wouldn't wait an hour if the waitlist is that long. Parking is also tough, no lot, street parking only. When it's packed, you'll probably have to park around the corner in the residential streets. read more

Got the chorizo & eggs and it was really good--flavorful, not too greasy, and came out hot and fresh. Good portion too, so you won't leave hungry. You can tell it's made with that homemade style, which I like. Of course had to get the café de olla and that was the highlight. Nice cinnamon flavor, not too sweet, and just really smooth. Perfect with the meal. Place has a chill vibe, nothing fancy, but good for a casual breakfast or brunch. Service was friendly and food came out pretty quick. Prices are fair for the area. Not super cheap, but worth it for the quality. Overall solid spot if you're craving Mexican breakfast. read more

Cafe de Olla in Burbank was the perfect spot for a long-overdue brunch with my in-laws. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated, highlights included the fajita omelette with fruits (10/10!) and the Del Norte Combination (10/10). The San Ignacio and steak and eggs were also hits. Service was outstanding from start to finish... Frank and Jose (and all the staff) were really friendly, attentive, and quick. The atmosphere was cozy, with plenty of street parking nearby. My husband's family had been here before and loved it, and now I see why.

Love Cafe de Olla! The All in One Breakfast is my go-to because it comes with egg, cheese, ham, sausage, hashbrown, and salsa. What could be better?! Sausage can be overpowering so I do order without! And the café is like no other. If you need a pick me up or just a feel good drink, their cafe de olla is heavenly. This location gets very crowded so I do recommend placing a pick up order and enjoying your meal at the nearby park (3 minute walk). Service is great despite how busy it can get and the ambiance is very communal and small. A true local gem! read more
