Eden is an unusual delight right in downtown Tulare, and it's quite likely the owner will be right there, available for recommendations and menu insight. The cuisine is French, specializing in breakfast but with more lunch-like options as well, making it perfect for brunch. Check out the menu, and consider ratatouille as your side--it's delicious! I especially appreciated the coffee, which is roasted on site. It was so good that I was tempted to order a second latte. They do occasional dinners too, but the focus is earlier in the day. Enjoy! read more

I went to brunch here and unfortunately it was not very enjoyable. The staff seemed as though they were new. They were not familiar with the menu which is not a good sign to me. They struggled while we ordered our beverages. The food came out very late. Our charges were incorrect on the check. Also if you have a child in diapers, there is no changing table. read more

My friend from another state ordered me a gift card for my birthday for this Resturant. So excited to try it ; a French restaurant owned by French people ... love it! We made reservations a couple days prior to coming here; got to sit wherever we wanted. The owners came by our table a few times ... very friendly. We ordered the quiche with the lyonise potatoes; perfect amount and a unique taste. We also ordered an omlette with lyonise potatoes.... Very good. Had to try a crepe; filled with Nutella and banana; mmmm reminded me of being in France. The ambiance is casual ; we must admit all the staff was friendly and very welcoming. They have a kids corner; for toddlers with toys ; which was very convenient. Loved that they work with the community and provide a lot of opportunities for those students who are high risk. Great mission ! read more

A surprisingly self made French cafe in the middle of Tulare. The owner herself sat down with me to explain that this cafe makes everything from scratch. She also mentions how this cafe also serves as a nonprofit during after hours for those looking for a second life. Although the menu warned of slower service, I found that my food came out in a timely manner despite the lunch rush. *French Onion Soup: rich, cheesy and beefy. Came with three slices of a bread but the soup itself had enough carb content. The cheese offered a pleasant stretch and saltiness. The onions could have caramelized for longer but the broth had good sweetness and herbal flavor regardless. *Lyonnaise Potatoes: the potatoes were cut thicker than the average potato chip. Certain slices were crispier while others had a chewier bite. The potatoes were seasoned well and the onion soup panning was very subtle. The best bites were the ones with onion bits. *Lemonade: on the sour side and not overly sweet. I wished that it was served in a glass instead of a plastic cup like other beverages. It was definitely house made but it wasn't my favorite. Every staff member was friendly although they appeared quite swamped. I got up to prep my own to go container because no one was free. Paying the bill was also at the front too so there wasn't much interaction after the first encounter. Overall, the food was good with stylistic flavors albeit the lemonade wasn't my favorite. The meaningful message and warm, welcoming ambiance made me rate the dine in experience a solid 4 stars. read more

I was disappointed... I was excited to try the food, but the wait was so long. We waited almost an hour for our food and my partner was diabetic, we had to leave. They did serve our coffee and did not charge us anything...at least for that they were considerate and aware of their late service. read more

We went for their New Years Eve Dinner! And wow, this is a glimpse of the dinner menu starting in February I was told, so it's tentative. But we are completely obsessed and cannot wait to go back for dinner. The servers are all so friendly and the owner is a delight! Always checking in on you and making sure everything is to your liking. I love the small coffee shop to the side for a quick in and out when you just want a pastry & coffee to go! read more

I was reluctant at first, but as you can see I gave it 5 stars. This is the best breakfast food in the valley from Bakersfield to Fresno. Home made food using authentic French ingredients and recipes. The atmosphere is amazing and relaxing. The story and social work the owners are going through is inspiring. Skip the chain restaurants and come here. Completely worth the drive down the 99. read more

Eden Cafe - Eden Eggs Benedict and Ratatouille. - Cafes Near Me - Tulare, California

Extremely delicious food here. We had the croque madame and egg Benedict, sides were ratatouille and potato, all are ordinary fares, but boy, don't they put a twists on these otherwise ordinary dishes and made them so unique and flavorful, can't fully describe it with words, you really have to taste it yourself to understand how good the food are. We also got three chocolate croissants to go, have not try them yet so can't review on it By the way, the owner a French man, is very friendly also read more

Arrived early for dinner and was seated by friendly host. Our waitress was super nice and helpful with our order. Ambiance; cute. Croissants; (7) flaky and delish. Tables outdoor have thick with dust. From a scale of 1-10 10 being great Appetizer; escargots ( 4 ) We used the butter & herbs to dip our bread which good. Entrée; Beef Bourguinon (0) Bland Mashed potatoes & beef bourguinon remind me of elementary cafeteria food. Desert; Creme Brullee (2) Im not a fan of Creme Brullee but had to try it. Dog hanging out in dinning room and walking into kitchen, not great for business. Animals shouldn't be allowed in kitchen where you serve food to customers. read more

Our first time eating at Eden Cafe, we visited on Saturday, February 17, 2024, at 8:30 am. The restaurant is spacious with plenty of parking. They also have a coffee shop/cafe if you want to grab a coffee and pastry. The ambiance was casual and friendly. We sat far from the door so the temperature was perfect. The menu is not extensive, pretty limited for breakfast options, more like a brunch menu. We started our order with a Brown Sugar Latte with an extra shot of espresso. The latte was made with real brown sugar, not an artificial syrup. It had a wonderful milk foam on top and not overly sweet. The coffee was served hot. A coffee menu would have been nice with a few house specialties listed I ordered the Quiche Loraine with a salad. The quiche is made in house and it was tasty but not spectacular. The crust wasn't as flaky as I had expected. It had nicely diced ham and was flavorful. I personally didn't care of the cheese it was topped with. Didn't feel the quiche needed it, kinda added a bit of grease to the quiche. I would order without next time. The salad was delicious, dressed perfectly. I would definitely order this salad again. We also ordered the veggie omelette . It was filled with a ratatouille, tomato based veggie mix, was good but would order the lamb merguez (lamb sausage) omelette next time. We weren't sure if we'd like the merguez, so we were given a sample..delicious, flavorful with a bit of spice. The Lyonnaise Potatoes were fantastic and would definitely order again. We ordered a in house made chocolate croissant. It was served warm and the croissant was flaky with just the right amount of chocolate. I would order again. We ordered the Brown Sugar Crepe and it was out of the world delicious! The crepe was served warm and topped with fresh cream. I highly recommend the Brown Sugar Crepe. The waitstaff was attentive and accommodating. Overall, I do recommend Eden Cafe and we will definitely eat here again, there are several menu items that we would like to try for brunch/lunch. read more

I was excited to try this restaurant on the way home from Yosemite. A bit out of the way but the reviews seemed worth it. After 10 minutes of being ignored by the staff I used the bathroom and returned to the table to find another couple sitting there. Bummer since I haven't had a hot meal in days. read more

I wouldn't recommend this place to any parent with young kids. Waitress didn't know what was in a macchiato, she looked like she didn't want to be there. I had my three year old toddler on my phone. After drinks were ordered she suggested they have a play table area in case I wanted to take her through the dining. Although her approach didn't seem genuine. Ten minutes later, the middle aged male server suggested the same thing and said the volume on my phone was loud. I understand toddlers can be loud at places just never has happened at any restaurant. Fancy places shouldn't provide bad service. Definitely won't be going back. read more

His French café is what the valley needed. The food is absolutely delicious! We started with coffee, chocolate, croissants, bread, jam, and Nutella. I ordered the chicken cordon bleu with ratatouille. It was cooked perfectly when I cut it open melted cheese pour out. It was very flavorful. My daughter ordered quiche with him and she it was delicious. I tried it, The waiters and waitresses kept on checking on us. The restaurant is decorated very nice. I like it. It is bright in there. The sunlight shines in the waitress said that they were going to have a new dinner menu in August. I'm looking forward to trying new French cuisine. Definitely going to be a regular at this beautiful delicious restaurant read more
