If you're looking for a great spot to catch up with friends look no further than Coral Tree. While I've been here many times, the latest was for brunch with friends. I got the vegetariana (veggie panini) which was very good. I was glad to branch out as normally I get a caprese sandwich as my go to with Coral tree. Parking can be hard unless you're willing to go with vallet. But if you're patient you may find on e in the neighborhood or park in the mini shopping mall lot though will be a few dollars. So enjoyable to sit outside on a nice day. Didn't. Take long to get our food, but took a bit to get someone's attention to get a to go box. read more

Coral Tree Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A really quick and tasty breakfast or lunch option in Brentwood. It's not a full service restaurant instead you order at the counter, they give you a number, and then they drop the food off to you. Think more of a café. Parking is also tricky in this area so it's either valet parking for $6 or metered street parking which can be hard to find. Inside is very large and can host many different size groups. They also have an outdoor eating area. For breakfast, I chose Eggs Benedict and added avocado and really enjoyed it. The eggs were cooked perfectly and everything about it was really good. I would highly recommend this place for a quick casual option and plan to stop in again in the near future. read more

This is a cute place just at the entrance of the main Brentwood area. Parking is kind of difficult unless you are willing to pay for their valet, but I was able to find a spot on San Vicente. The smoked turkey sandwich with cranberry cream cheese was excellent. I liked the balance of the thick slices of turkey and the veggies. The bread is a bit tough, but not bad. We were able to find a fully shaded spot on the patio outdoors, which was lovely on a sunny day. I loved that this location is on the inkind app, which made it an affordable lunch spot. I was also able to apply a discount at the cash register when ordering. Referral link for $25 off $50+: http://app.inkind.com/refer/EGPDI2JT read more

We used to come here for food and work all the time when students at UCLA. We decided to meet here with best friends from back in the day for old times sake. The food is now way better than I remember. Loved the lox toast. Coffee is still just OK, and inside is still pretty loud for a cafe.. service is great though. Brought back good memories. read more

Stopped by here recently and had a really good experience. Food and drinks were both solid and there were a lot of options on the menu. Plenty of seating too, which was nice because we didn't have a reservation and still got seated pretty quickly. Parking can be a little annoying but valet is available and we were also able to find street parking nearby after a couple minutes read more

Everyone is so charming and friendly and helpful. My food was delicious. Both my friend's coffee latte and my matcha latte were fantastic. Also, damn, these potatoes are perfect. read more

Location is wonderful and great space with ample seating indoors or outdoors for meeting with friends, family, colleagues, or even getting work done/ people watching on your own. Staff is very friendly. Food is quite meh. At LA prices. Ordered off the breakfast menu, though lunch menu was also available. I thought the breakfast burrito lacked flavor and the breakfast potatoes were on the soggy/soft side. Definitely better with hot sauce or salsa if you can stomach it (the one they serve is not particularly hot though). Pancakes were nothing special. Fluffy but not very flavorful. Seemed they baked the chocolate chips in on top rather than including them in the batter. And they were sparse. For $20 a plate, I wasn't too impressed. Next time I'd probably order a pastry and a coffee just to spend time there if I go back. Wouldn't go for the food, but that's just my two cents. read more

We came for breakfast and sat out on the sunny patio. Our daughter studies here a lot so it was nice to see where she spends her time. Eggs Benedict were good. Fresh squeezed orange juice large size came in a nice pint glass. Seemed like a nice environment. Counter service and they bring your food to your table. Parking was free around the corner but they also offer valet. Fine experience overall. read more

We come to the coral tree cafe so often. My go-tos are the steak sandwich and the chicken sandwich but today I got the tomatoe bisque and shared the Mac n cheese. The Mac was sooo great loved great it was garlicky I loved! The ambiance is very coffee shop vibes, it's what the old show Entourage tried to emulate with Urth. I've seen so many celebrities here, it's great for any age, dog friendly, and meeting friendly! I will be back all of the time! read more

Friend chose this place to meet up for dessert. We got a pear tartlet and our friend got the lentil soup. The lentil soup ended sup being more of a tomato onion soup with little bits of lentil. Skip this. The pear tart was good. Good crust, top and filling. Not too sweet. I would get it again. We sat outside towards the back. Good place to meet up and catch up. Found street park around the corner. read more

Great place to meet up with a long-time friend on our way back up from San Diego to Bay Area. Plenty of street parking, expansive & delicious gourmet menu for the whole family, and lots of seating. Prices seem a little high but relatively normal these days given the inflation since 2020. Can't beat the location in Brentwood/Los Angeles in a very nice area near UCLA campus and the 405/Wilshire exit. Would come here again! read more

Service prompt. Order at The counter and they bring you your food. Excellent fresh squeezed orange juice. Avocado toast served on a multi grain toast. Farmhouse Panini was also yum with eggs, bacon and cheese. Lovely environment. read more

We had a lovely lunch here! Their Matcha, as well as coffee is delicious, I also really enjoyed their salads and sandwiches. My husband loved the pasta, everything was made to order quickly and presented nicely. Portions are generous and I really enjoyed their tune out without mayonnaise, which is extremely hard to find in my preferred way. Healthy feel good food, for breakfast, lunch and dinner! read more

The ambiance was interesting , very Brentwoods vibes. The people eating don't look like they are enjoying the food, it looks as if they are meeting for there 2clock brunch without the happiness and mimosas for courage juice. The seating was in abundance and I had a lunch meal with my team. I think it was overpriced. Paid $35 for my food and hot chocolate. The service was great and food was seasoned and well done. The price was on the higher end. No complaints on the food just the prices. 6/10. Try it if you would like, just not my cup of tea. read more

My husband and I stopped in today for his birthday brunch. I got the shakshuka and he ordered the veggie Benedict. This was our first time here and I thought the ordering at the bar and self seating was pretty quick and easy. But... it took about 25 min for our order to come out, which was surprising. My husband and I are both vegetarian and, unfortunately, there ended up being a couple chunks of bacon in his. He bit into one thinking it was a mushroom but spit it out and realized it was meat. Pretty disappointing in general, but especially because it was his birthday. The food was good but expensive and for the price, I'd expect the veggie to be kept separate from any meat. read more

I ordered the blueberry pancakes and the two eggs breakfast. The pancakes were amazing! The two eggs were good, just pretty standard. The service was fine, and I loved the ambiance--tons of natural light and a bright, social vibe. If you're hoping to get some work done, bring headphones because people are definitely chatting here. read more

My colleague invited me to eat here today. It was our regular meeting spot for years, so, I was quite amenable to the idea. Where do I start? The parking in this neighborhood is in a word HORRENDOUS. After driving around and around for 20 minutes, I had to give in and go to the valet parking. PS I never valet park. But, the parking people were so sweet to me upon my car pulling into the lot, I was totally feeling happy about it. Before you go any further reading, please know that this was the highlight of my lunch . Walked into pure chaos and cacophonous sounds that were ear splitting. The line for ordering was ridiculous and the people standing around were way too many ... now, because there are not enough tables. I sat at one whilst my friend went on line. 15 minutes later he came back to our table and sent me over to wait on line. What really struck me as odd was that there was one person taking orders. He was a lovely fellow, but clearly he needed help ( this restaurant's capacity is unusually large)... another 10 minutes go by and between the loud sounds and the chaos, I had lost my appetite and ordered an iced tea. So now 30 minutes have passed and finally my friend and I can catch up. He didn't even finish his salad because he didn't like it. It has always been his favorite. He said they prepared the chicken differently. OK, so when one of the waitstaff came by and asked him if they wanted him to box his leftovers? he promptly said..."no thanks". Again, a first for us because plenty of times in the past, because the food was so plentiful and delicious, we always took home leftovers of whatever we had eaten. We vowed to never return which really is a bummer so I beg you Coral Tree Café please get your house in order! And make the process easier and efficient!!! Very disappointing and WAY TOOO LOUD and just not cool! read more

Thank you Alejandra for your excellent service and the food was fabulous. Your signature of the small panesitos , I surely love.

5 stars for the environment and 2 stars for the food. The most mid breakfast dishes with a very high price point for what you get. I got a vanilla latte that was also quite disappointing. The pear tart was pretty much just a crumbly buttery shell with no pear flavor. read more

I've been coming here since my college days, and it's still one of my favorite spots! The menu is full of good dishes, but honestly, their buttermilk pancakes steal the show. They're hot, fluffy, and absolutely delicious--nothing like the rubbery ones you find elsewhere. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and try them! Great location to also enjoy a catch up meeting over coffee. read more

Dear Coral Tree Management; Nobody is coming to the cafe to listen to loud pulsating pop music. They want to work or talk with a friend while they eat. PLEASE consider lowering the volume of the music and change to less club songs. Read the room. thx Your customers read more

Coral tree is a good place when looking for clean ingredients. Food is tasty. Great for pickup

I'm happy to have found this cafe, February 2025, after moving from San Diego to Los Angeles. The employees really care about our needs. This is a big place. Customers both respect your privacy, and sometimes engage in conversations with you. It very much reminds me of being in Europe. You can end up sitting with strangers, or really close to a stranger, and still have a great time. As a vegan, I'm glad that there are some choices here, and that the servings are big. Endi and Miguel are definitely a plus here. They go the extra mile, rather they know you are not. The added plus is that you never know who might be sitting next to you: screen writers; producers; Demi Moore; major negotiators; Ted Danza (who is approachable); and others. read more

I tried their new dinner menu and it was delicious! I ordered the turkey bolognese, my friend for steak frites, and we shared the kale salad and roasted carrots. I was excited to see their cocktail menu. We got the Moscow mule and Margarita. Both good and strong. You definitely get a great portion for your buck and I was so happy to have more for leftovers. I really like Coral Tree Cafe for its casual setting, large menu, great service, and inviting atmosphere. The surrounding restaurants can be a bit posh, so it's refreshing to have a place like CTC where you can come as you are throughout the day. read more

I came to CTC earlier this week for lunch with a colleague. The restaurant was spacious and had a lot of seating. It was reminiscent of a house actually. It had a unique and eclectic aesthetic. The menu had a good variety of breakfast & lunch options. I ordered a breakfast burrito with a peach tea with lemonade, a la "Arnold Palmer". The customer service was great from the cashier, she was very sweet and complimentary. The wait time for our food was very short, which we appreciated. The food was good, the burrito was massive and filling. The only thing I can complain about was that it was a bit warm inside, because the doors were open. As a result, there were flies coming in. Also, the price was a little steep, but it's in Brentwood, so that is to be expected. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. I'll be back. read more

Great food! Came here multiple times and it was well worth it. Love the amount of avocado used in the burrito it makes all the difference

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough that I felt I had to. When I placed my order, I specifically asked for my matcha to be served after my food, as I like to enjoy it more like a dessert. Instead, it was brought out immediately before my meal. I was in the middle of a conversation and didn't want to interrupt it to fix their mistake right away. By the time I finished eating, the matcha had melted and was no longer enjoyable. I brought this to the manager, Sarah, and politely asked if they could remake it since it was served incorrectly. She refused, saying it was "policy" and that I should have said something sooner--even though the error was clearly on their end. I was left holding a full, ruined drink that I had specifically asked to receive later. It felt like I was being penalized for their mistake. Really disappointing customer service and lack of accountability. read more

I visited Coral Tree on San Vicente in Brentwood around 12:15 PM on October 26. The person taking our order was surprisingly rude to both me and my friend. We decided to let it slide because we were hungry and just wanted to eat. We ordered three burritos for takeout. When we went to the pickup section, the employee there was also rude. We politely asked for three chipotle sauces to go with our three burritos. She said she would only give us two and refused when we asked again. The place was very busy when we walked in, but that doesn't excuse the attitude. I'm glad we ordered takeout because I can only imagine how unpleasant the experience would have been if we had decided to dine in. The food was fine, but the behavior of both employees made the entire visit disappointing. Management should remind staff that the customers and their tips are what keep this business running. No place should be managed or represented this way. I don't plan to return. read more
