Baguette sandwich with ratatouille
Kathy N.

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!

Beautiful open atmosphere, this French restaurant is owned by a beautiful french woman who wanted to not only serve fresh food made daily, she also wanted to help the community! It's a win, win combination. 20% of her monies goes back into the local community. She offers work to local students along with helping the community by employing persons who need a second chance at life. The service was wonderful, the owner sat with us a few minutes since it was our first time dining there. She explained menu items and her philosophy on helping out her local community. Nice table and chairs with linen napkins. A small play area for kids (!) in the part of the restaurant that looks like it serves fresh made pasties and coffees. All fresh ingredients are used along with local food sourced by the community, she used the example of the fresh local pecans and walnuts used in the salads. Fresh french butter and cheeses. We had a Kir Royale to add to our beautiful lunch. I felt like I was back in France for lunch! We had a beautiful grilled salmon salad, the traditional french sandwich- Le Parisien, a Parisien omelet , also with a side of french fries and the well known Lyonnaise potatoes. We were all very pleased and happy with our meals. Each server was very helpful and kind . We brought home fresh croissants and the chocolate filled croissant. So delicious. We will return for crepes and many more items we were not able to try. It's worth the drive to Tulare. Only open until 2:00 PM. They do have a special dinner that you need to book in advance and it sells out, this is done about once a month.

Went in for a Valentine's breakfast. Sat right away. The owner was very friendly and talked to every single person in the restaurant and introduced herself. The restaurant is a non profit. Good food and good cause.

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 !

Salmon salad special

This place is so amazing! Every time I come the food is so fresh and delicious. While the dishes seem simple, they're extremely flavorful. The ambiance is quaint and the owners are so kind.

Great authentic food, and welcoming staff. Cozy environment. A gem in Tulare. And it is a non profit dedicated to teaching youth.

Plan croissant luscious butter undertones and light and airy

Hands down the best croissants in the Central Valley and among the best in the state Buttery, flavorful , fresh and with artisan attentions to time consuming art of making a proper pastry dough You can count the number if layers in each bite of this scrumptious pastry and see how much effort the bakers have put into it I'm excited to come back for croque Monsieur and croque madame for breakfast next week What a gem in Tulare to exist I hope they are full of patrons and success moving forward Staff were so friendly and helpful for my order and the restaurant just fills you with the feeling of a French cafe in Paris

" Golden Sunrise" Latte

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.

French onion soup
Lam B.

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.

Latte

An absolute must stop if driving through Tulare, the food is amazing, best eggs Benedict I have ever had! Fresh, beautifully tasting English muffins and the hollandaise was heavenly. The owner is incredibly kind and their mission statement is wonderful. This was the perfect stop for our road trip. We were treated like family during our visit and will definitely be back!

This was the first time we visited Eden Cafe. The food was amazing! The atmosphere is quiet and relaxed with great staff. The owners take time to visit tables and are very personable!

Crème brûlée made to order by the lovely chef! Perfectly delicious!!

Up front: this is not a review of the food…read more My father, whose grandparents were Swedish Immigrants to New York, loves nothing more than making Swedish pancakes on Christmas. So, when we were walking down the street and I saw an 'I Love Swedish Pancakes' shirt, I knew I had to pick one up for him. When I walked in, it appeared that there was only one woman working the whole shop. As it was an early Friday morning, it seemed like it was manageable. She smiled and asked if she could help and when I mentioned the shirt, she immediately pointed over to a rack. I looked through and when I couldn't find my dad's size, I walked over & saw her manning the kitchen. I asked if by any chance they had any other sides in the back and she smiled & right away walked over to see what she could find. She did find the size I needed and I happily bought it. We had some small talk about why I wanted the shirt and it was just an overall lovely experience. Honestly, I wish we hadn't just eaten because I would've loved to try some of the pastries and food the offered. I guess I've got something to look forward to next time we're in the area.

Cafe with family-oriented perks. Friendly and helpful staff. We ordered the Grilled Chicken Club,…read moreLil' Sprouts PB&J, and Lil' Sprouts Fried Chicken Strips for a late lunch. There's a great variety on the menu and dining activities for almost every age. Games for use, like Monopoly, Scrabble, and Connect-4, sprinkled around the dining area. There is a play mobile trailer, and along the wall is bouldering or free rock climbing. We plan a return visit for the food, fun, service, and to try the funnel fries and dairy-free, fat-free smoothies.
