My mom got the iPhone 18 so why not snap a few pics, update the review and bless you with some nice new pics! First off, the parking still isn't great. It's a small parking lot located next to a building for lease and a liquor store. Two spots are dedicated to the liquor store, there's a handicap spot and probably 4-5 parks. It's usually full so you either have to park on Saticoy somewhere. Once you arrive you are greeted by some of the nicest waiters and waitresses in the valley. I think they are great and they are always so cheerful and happy to serve and help. As for the food, I went with the English Butty. My mom ordered the Black Forest Ham & Tillamook Cheddar Omelette, my son got the strawberry and blueberry pancakes and my dad ordered the Panwhich. A must order is still the lavender lemonade! Sooooo good!!! The food is still amazing and the portions are pretty big. The food usually comes with potatoes and a side of some green stuff. I'm not sure what it was but I killed it this time lol. Overall, Humble Bee is still a top location for some good, organic breakfast in the area and we will always be back for more! OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros

However, they do take walk-ins). Since we had some time to kill, we decided to grab a bite nearby, and we're so glad we did because we stumbled upon this gem!! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and from the moment we walked in, everyone welcomed us like we were regulars. It was such a warm, friendly atmosphere. Zoe took amazing care of us and was an absolute joy throughout our visit. Thank you Zoe!! We started with the Dr. Feel Good wellness shot, which Zoe actually made fresh herself. I really appreciated that it was housemade instead of coming from a prepackaged bottle--it felt fresh and intentional. And DID THE JOB! For food, we ordered the Humble Bee Animal Style and the Farm Boy with turkey sausage. Everything was incredibly flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. And those pancakes... I'm still thinking about them! This is definitely a place worth trying. Between the generous portions, welcoming service, fresh quality ingredients, and reasonable prices, it's an easy spot to recommend. We'll absolutely be back!

There is nothing bad to say about this restaurant. From service, to food, to the great, clean,…read morebeautiful ambiance. Indoor and plenty of patio seating. They also have 2 other locations. One in Northridge and the other in Santa Clarita. Met up with a friend on the 15th of this month at exactly 12:50pm. On weekdays they close at 2pm and at 3pm on weekends. Since I heard so much about this place, we both wanted to give this lovely, cute, cozy, quaint restaurant a try. I am glad that we did. It had some nice decor all around including their gender neutral restroom. We were nicely welcomed by Myra with a pretty smile & she gave us an option to sit inside or outside. Decided to sit outside even though it was very windy. Took less than 5 minutes for our server by the name of Meliza to come and take our order. I am glad to have asked her the spelling of her name. Most of them spell it as Melissa. She was a very pleasant young lady and had a good attitude. Also very helpful. She checked on us a few times during our visit. We ordered few things from their extensive menu options. Neither one of us had tried Chilaquiles. I guess there is a 1st time for everything. The base was crunchy, semi thick corn chips topped with: over medium eggs, green tomatilla, red raw onions, cilantro, Queso Fresco cheese, sour cream, garnished with red redish add chicken for extra $4.99. We asked for the green sauce instead of red. Less spicy. We also ordered their Victory Sandwich that came with: two scrambled eggs, avocado, goat cheese, tomato, and hash brown on a nice toasted wheat bun. We were very hungry as you can tell:-))) Last but not least, we got their Avocado Toast nicely toasted on Sourdough bread, two poached eggs, avocado spread, Arugula salad, & micro greens (garnished with red radish). For drinks, since they didn't have Horchata, I opted for a single shot decaf Spice Latte with Oat milk. We both stayed with water. Latte along with the food was very delicious, fresh, made to PERFECTION! I have to confess that the Chilaquiles stole the show. It was THAT GOOD!! The food came out quick and fast. Parking is shared with two other businesses. A nail salon and a dental clinic. Thank you Myra, Meliza, management and Garcia Brothers. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. I guess I was the only one from my friends on Yelp that haven't been here, I made the list..

My husband got side potatoes which were very flavorful because they added onions to the mix giving it an extra layer of flavor.

I always get the caramel latte, which I love, and today my friend ordered the mocha. For breakfast, I had the French Toast Combo with two pieces of French toast, two eggs, and three strips of bacon. It was a LOT of food! They were also able to scramble my eggs with milk, which I really appreciated because it makes them so much fluffier. I also really appreciated that my eggs and bacon were served on a separate plate from my French toast. It's a small detail, but I loved that everything wasn't all piled together. My friend ordered the Belgian Omelette with tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, and cheddar. I took a photo of the outside, but the photo definitely doesn't show just how packed this omelette was! The staff is always friendly, and I love that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. I honestly don't think I've ever sat inside because sitting outside by the fountain is such a nice way to enjoy breakfast, especially in the cooler morning hours. If you're looking for a breakfast place with generous portions, lots of variety, and consistently good food, More Than Waffles is definitely worth a visit. They serve lunch too, although breakfast is clearly the star of the menu. I haven't tried lunch yet, but considering how consistent everything else has been, I'll have to give it a try one of these days!

Just like my first time here; I was amazed at how delicious their pancakes truly are! Me and friends each other a breakfast entree and an extra pancake dish to share; I swear I was full for 2 days major carb overload. Will I do it again? YES! haha. the only downside is the fact that I have yet to try their soufflé pancakes due to their high demand they can take 45m-1hr to prepare! The place stays busy but we were sit quite fast; I want to say we waited 15-20 minutes.

Let me begin by saying that most of the food here is very, very, very well prepared and very, very,…read morevery good. What baffles me is the service. The last time I came here it was about five years ago, when it was still CiCi's. What I remember about that last time was how long it took us to get our food. I ordered steak and eggs, and when we asked when our food was coming, our waitress stared at me and said, "Well you ordered the steak . . . ". As if it was my fault that the food was taking a very long time. Regardless, when the food finally came, it was very good. However, the price point and the service was enough for me not to go back for a very long time. Until today. There are two seats on the very far left end of the bar that are lower than the regular bar seating. The hostess gave us menus promptly. There is a tall waitress working there who wears large glasses. Her hair was pulled back tightly. I'm not sure if she's is Asian or Hispanic. I'm not saying that to throw any shade at her ethnicity whatever it is I'm just saying that to try to describe who this person is. I have never in my life, been looked at so sourly and exasperatedly by a waitress as I have when this waitress saw my boyfriend and I sitting at the bar. No smile. Maybe she was upset because I had to flag her down because we had been sitting there waiting for someone to ask us if we wanted anything to drink. I asked for two coffees and two waters. She brought us the waters, and I never spoke to her again. Another waitress was kind enough to bring us our coffees after that. We waited a little while to order and yes, it was busy, but there were at least two or three people behind the bar at all times and I know they have other customers in the restaurant to serve so that doesn't bother me at all. So there was a third woman who took our order. We waited and waited and waited for our food. They did refill our coffee. After a while, I finally asked is our food coming? I was told let me go check by a fourth person. That fourth person returned and said that our food would be up soon. 10 minutes later I asked again if our food was coming. I understand certain things that take a long time like any of the pancake soufflés, but we did not order any soufflé pancakes. When I asked the second time when our food was coming, again, that person went to the kitchen to ask. When that person came back, they said oh it's not ready because you ordered the steak. The exact same thing they told me the last time we were here five years ago as to why our food was taking so long. I order my steak, medium rare every time it does not take that long to make a medium rare steak. Regardless, when I got my food, it was delicious. They forgot the side order of potatoes (because God forbid steak and eggs comes with potatoes) but I told them not to worry about it because I didn't wanna have to wait another 30 minutes to get them. My entree also came with a crêpe, and when they asked me what kind of crêpe I wanted, I asked for a Nutella crêpe. You know what they give you? A bone dry crêpe with whipped cream and a few drops of Nutella. I'm pretty sure that Nutella is supposed to go inside the crêpe not just a couple drops on top of it with a big giant dollop of whipped cream. And just because I feel like it, you know what's really low rent for a place with these prices? Tossing a to-go plastic disposable container of A1 on the plate with the steak and eggs. Seriously? You don't have a small little ceramic ramekin that you could at least put the A1in? I feel like that was put there just to fill up the plate because they don't give you any potatoes. Kind of a classless move. So like I said before, the food was very good and I'm sure it always will be. But when the waitress looks at you like you ruined her day, it reminds me why I haven't come back for years. Then when I really WANT to support that local business again, history of repeats itself. I don't like being blamed for my food taking forever because it's what I ordered. That is completely ridiculous and not the customers fault. So just be prepared for dirty looks and even if it's not that busy you're still gonna wait a long time for your food and maybe it'll be worth it but that's up to you.

This old-timey coffee shop…read morein Van Nuys has been a steady presence in the area for decades, famous for house-made muffins and jams, and really high quality diner fare served by a friendly, warm and welcoming staff. The decor is exactly what you'd expect (and exactly what you want) from a neighborhood coffee shop: formica tables, padded chairs and booths, aging photos on the walls, and lively music playing on the radio. It was bustling at lunchtime on a Thursday, but not crazy busy (as on many weekend mornings), so I was seated immediately. The menu boasts a fairly large selection of options, from the usual breakfast items to sandwiches and burgers, daily specials, and those aforementioned muffins (which you can get instead of toast with your breakfast if you like). Today, I opted for their Spicy Louisiana Hot Link with eggs, grits and toast. It was a very generous portion of food for $16.95, and I appreciate how they've manage to keep their prices reasonable. The eggs were a proper over-medium, and the grits were both hot and creamy. The side of butter melted easily into the porridge, which, when salted and peppered, made for a satisfying and savory bite. The sausage was split and grilled, showing off a nice char; they were spicy, as advertised, but not overly powerful, and they paired very well with the warm, creamy egg yolk. Rye toast was full of caraway flavor, and really shone when topped with butter and a generous slather of Nat's house-made Apricot Jam (packed with fruit flavor without being too sweet). Yes, Nat's remains a solid, satisfying spot for breakfast and lunch. And though parking can sometimes be a challenge, I find the food is well worth the effort.

Went here last Saturday and we arrived at 10:30am and added our name in the waitlist. In less than…read more5 mins we were seated. Since it's only me and my youngest son we were seated in a 2top. When we arrived there were options for indoor or outdoor but we prefer to sit inside. You can order using the QR code or through the server. I ordered chai latte and my son got mocha latte, for food we ordered 2 items to share - breakfast quesadillas and brunch carbonara. The brunch carbonara is my choice as I liked that it uses Arborio rice and all the elements of a carbonara but what elevated the dish was the green sauce all around the plate so you can mix it. The poached eggs were perfectly cooked and placed on top so you can imagine it soaked up on the rice. Very filling! I switched plates with my son and he also liked my order. If I were to recreate this at home I'll definitely put more bacon. In The breakfast quesadilla is also flavorful and it comes with 3 sauces. I only tasted it but we had this to go as it was also a huge serving. The drinks are good value the price. Overall experience here better than the Tarzana location (which is now closed). Note that this is a semi self service place which is why they adjusted their options for tip. We ordered via the QR code so we paid before we got the service. We left around 11:30 and the restaurant is now full and had a longer wait time.

I understand using a QR code to place your order. It's not my preferred dining experience, but I…read morecan accept that's how the restaurant operates. What bothers me is being asked to choose a tip before I've received the service. I'm given options like 10%, 15%, 18%, or 20%--but how am I supposed to know what level of service deserves 10% versus 20% when the service hasn't happened yet? If I choose 10% and the service is excellent, I may feel like I should have tipped more. If I choose 20% and the service is poor, I feel like I've overpaid. Ironically, this system makes me more likely to choose a conservative tip every time. I'd much rather have the option to tip after the service is provided, when I can actually evaluate the experience. My recommendation: keep the QR ordering if you want, but move the tipping option to the end of the meal, after the service has been provided. That would make tipping feel more fair and meaningful.
