My son and I were driving around West LA looking for a breakfast spot. He found La Prime Cafe in Yelp. We found parking on the street (if you don't like stacked parking skip the lot). My son had the Oreo Waffles, side of bacon and large orange juice. I had the Prime House Special (two eggs scrambled, chicken sausage, fruit instead of potatoes, slice of sourdough bread, and a hot Matcha Latte. The presentation of our dishes were beautiful. The design on my latte made me smile. My son's waffle made him grin ear to ear. The orange juice was fresh squeezed. Everything was FRESH and DELICIOUS! We are definitely coming back. Great customer service by the young man working the counter! read more

=== So wanted to love it but was just ok === * Definitely a bit hard to find, and feels a bit grunge, pushed in the back of a claustrophobic-feeling parking lot. Not its fault though so not taking a star off for this. ++ Very friendly service but not over the top where it feels you have to be bright and peppy on a morning where your'e not! The guy behind the counter answered all of our questions and was happy to give us recommendations which I always love. * Decently cute interior but also some bare walls. * Food was just ok. French toast was decent but not mind-blowing -- I ate it all but it wasn't compelling to the last bite. Chicken sausage was actually fairly flavorless. Had to use my wife's chipotle sauce to pep it up. Eggs were fine. + Wife's breakfast burrito was a stand-out. Crispy and creamy textures in it. * Drinks were also kind of average -- coffee drinks were overwhelmingly milky with a relatively weak coffee taste. ++ Art on the mocha was super nice. Really wanted to love this place, especially because of the nice folks working there and because I love little underdog restaurants like this located in tough spots. But can't say I loved this experience. read more

We got the Salmon Bagel Sandwich for $13.50, which I thought was cheap. The staff were incredibly polite and friendly, making the experience even better. The bagel sandwich was delicious and filling, and it came with a side salad as well. Everything tasted fresh, and you could tell the ingredients were high quality. Overall, I would 100% recommend this place. read more

La Prime Caffe - #coffeeart - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Easily the best breakfast spot in west la that won't charge you an arm and a leg. Everything is very simple but good. The breakfast burrito was especially good with the tortilla being soft but nicely toasted. The hash browns inside were crispy and the pico de gallo was a nice refreshing touch. Not overly greasy. Service is friendly and quick. You pay before you sit down and eat. The waffle combo was recommended as their most popular. Everything was good but the burrito was much better. read more

Nestled in the back parking lot of a Zankou Chicken, you blink and you'll miss it, but this place is a gem and is worth seeking out. The food here is outstanding! We came in for a late breakfast on a weekday and it was clean, friendly, and fast. The coffee is also excellent (and strong). They have valet parking, and it is super convenient to the 405. La Prime Caffe is going on our list of great places to eat while we're on this side of the hill! read more

Really enjoyed this breakfast. It was quick and very flavorful. The potatoes were extra seasoned, which I really liked. They were not your normal side breakfast potato. They were much better than that. There's no waiters or waitresses here you are at the counter. Service was nice. I got an iced tea, but it was not a free refill but a discounted refill so that was a little bit of a bummer. It is a relatively small space but plenty of room for a look a café read more

La Prime Caffe - Extreme Waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

La Prime Caffe is one of my favorite little hidden gems for a lowkey breakfast or brunch. Their staff is super nice and attentive - they're really good if modifications need to be made to a dish. Ruby and Miguel are superstars, they really excel in customer service and hold it down while being polite and personable. Their wraps are surprisingly really good, I know every cafe makes a chicken caesar wrap, but LA Prime Caffe's is the only one I crave. I also love their lox bagel for a quick bite on the go (they will put it on a croissant for you if they run out of bagels, feels like a decadent lil treat). The best thing about LA Prime Caffe is their espresso, it beats out the majority of the hoity toity cafes in Los Angeles. It's well rounded, robust, and never acrid. The dolce latte is my usual here. The ambiance is very casual, nothing super fancy, but clean and spacious with plenty of seating. My favorite little perk of this place is the complementary water - every day is a new fruit infusion. Just a thoughtful little gesture for their customers. Big plus is that they have parking spaces in the lot. Easy, quick, and convenient every time. Prices are fair and portions are generous. read more

Affordable and easy chill environment. They have a dedicated parking lot with the chicken store. Self service kind of place. Great for quick breakfast. Nice large bathroom. Bonus points for drawn coffee!! Different animals! read more

I came upon LA Prime Cafe as a happy accident. I was on my way to work, and I got a flat tire. I pulled into the parking lot which sits in front of this cafe. I called roadside assistance, but the wait was 1.5 hours. So I decided to step into this cafe while I wait. After checking out their menu, I decided to get a spicy chicken sandwich. The sandwich was tasty and indeed spicy, which is great as most places make their "spicy" dishes mild because "most people don't like very spicy food." The side salad complemented the sandwich well. The cafe is a bit small, but finding seating was not an issue. The place was clean throughout, and the working kept this place running smoothly. This place is a gem in west LA, I would recommend them for lunch. read more

I was looking for a place to have a work meeting where there was seating so we could get some work done. This place was quiet enough and the food was a nice treat. FOOD I got the kale smoothie which was delicious and the French toast meal that came with eggs, and bacon or sausage. I didn't want the eggs so they let me sub them out for avocado without an upcharge which was awesome. I added fresh fruit to my French toast for just $3. It was a good lunch for about $22 including the taxes and tip. SERVICE The service was fast and the guys were nice. We placed our orders and the smoothie and food came out fast. AMBIANCE It was a chill but intimate cafe that had long tables perfect for us to setup our laptops and meeting materials and still have space for our food and drinks comfortably. I think there was background music but it was subtle and didn't interrupt the meeting. I also liked that they had spa water accessible to the public so you could get it without having to ask for it. This was a good place for a meeting over lunch, I'd do it again. PARKING This place has a couple of parking spots but shared the lot with Zankou Chicken so they do fill up pretty fast. I got there around 11 and got 1 of the last 2 spots available at the time so it worked out for me. HONORABLE MENTION There is no WiFi- we used our hotspot read more

All I gotta say is this place has one of the best breakfast burritos in LA. It's clean from how it holds to how it tastes to how it goes down.

La Prime Caffe - Lovely waffle with fruits - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

They know how to make a legit breakfast burrito and they do it right. Very nicely made with a great ratio of eggs / guacamole/ tater tots/ salsa / etc. I personally opt to not do the black beans as I disagree with beans in a bfast burrito. Very importantly they grill press it lightly after it's wrapped - any place that doesn't do this to a burrito gets crossed off my list. On the side they give you Chipotle mayo, which is something I normally don't like, but I actually really enjoy theirs! And it's very reasonably priced. Happy I stumbled upon this place. read more

It is so criminal that I have not written a review for this place yet, and was absolutely mortified when I realized this while I made my weekly brunch trip last weekend! This is my favorite breakfast burrito on the west side and some of the best coffee in the neighborhood. I come here all the time and Ruby even knows my order now! The staff is fantastic and the food is fresh and reasonably priced. I stick to a breakfast burrito with chicken sausage and an iced dulce latte, but my friends and family can vouch for the tuna sandwich, most of the salads, and the waffles! The parking lot is a bit tricky on busy weekends because it shares a lot with Zankou who is always doing valet, I always tell the guy I'm coming to Prime and he leaves me alone. There is ample seating inside as well, I've brought my dog nephew in before and it hasn't been a problem. Overall this is a neighborhood staple! read more

Over hyped, I went based on yelp reviews. Strong points the pancakes and waffles. That's were it stops

Went here with a friend for brunch and had a great meal. We split the regular avocado toast and the extreme waffle. Both were delicious and well priced. I also had a vanilla latte and my friend got a matcha latte. The coffee was very sweet but I really enjoyed it. I definitely have to come back and try more. read more

I love this place. They have the best breakfast burrito especially if you're a vegetarian looking for a meatless option (although the burrito with meat in it is also good!). I've found that a lot of breakfast burrito places do not know how to properly prepare a potato. this place gets it right. The menu has so many options, which makes it perfect for anyone looking for variety. The workers are SO SWEET! And the tables are always clean and they're very on top of keeping the place spick and span even when they are busy. I've been here about four times and have experienced the same level of service each time: which is great. And not to mention, the prices aren't too bad either! read more

La Prime Caffe - Waffle with nutella and fruit. Breakfast burrito (no meat) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is easily my favorite coffee shop in West LA that I visit most weekdays on my way to the office!! You won't find flashy, Instagram-style drinks here, but what you will get is a consistently excellent cup every time. They clearly care about the details from start to finish. Milk is perfectly textured, drinks are served at the right temperature (never overheated), and everything is done at a reasonable price. Miguel, Luis, and the rest of the team are always welcoming and genuinely helpful, and the space is consistently clean and well-maintained. Whether you're in the mood for a cappuccino, latte, matcha, or just a simple drip coffee, this place delivers. Highly recommend checking it out. read more

This is located inside a small location with another restaurant Zankou Chicken (see my review:) I was expecting a stand alone regular restaurant, but this is set in the shopping complex and very small, but lots of seating and great menu which is why I still liked it. Valet parking again, but it's free so don't stress and you see your car the lot is so tiny. Thats why they do it to allow double stacking. Valet guy is very nice and professional. I ordered the breakfast burrito and a latte, both of which were delicious and arrived quickly. I would say if you want a quiet place with cool music, nice efficient staff, and good value, come here. Lots of menu choices for drinks and food too. If they have wifi, then you're golden for a quiet work space away from home centrally located near a freeway and downtown Westwood or Santa Monica. read more

Food was okay, waffle wasn't my favorite. Wihich sucked cause reviews said they were.

LA Prime Caffe is tucked inside an unassuming plaza. While it's not the prettiest, most aesthetic "LA" brunch spot, it is definitely cozy and feels more like a mom and pop shop. My friend and I shared a breakfast burrito (add chicken sausage) and French toast. The burrito was amazing! Warm, full of fresh cilantro, rice, beans, and juicy chunks of chicken sausage, we both agreed that this was the best breakfast burrito we'd had in LA. Delicious with the chipotle mayo. French toast was pretty standard French toast, but it was still good. They gave a lot of strawberries. Barely needed to use syrup with the Nutella on there. read more

Great food , I highly recommend . Costumer service . It's my first time here and it was great.

Great breakfast spot to get takeout. Located inside the lobby of a commercial building on Sawtelle and Missouri. Can't say much about the coffee since I'm relatively new to it but the breakfast burrito was amazing! I wish they had a homemade chile to go with it but the chipotle sauce was pretty good. Staff is also incredibly helpful and friendly! Plenty of street parking early morning as well. read more

La Prime Caffe - Caramel Churro Waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here during an afternoon in between meetings at work to grab some coffee with my team. Made the trek across Santa Monica Blvd to enter what seems like a nondescript coffee shop. The main reason for that was that it was almost time of closing. I got myself a vanilla cold brew and it was quite impressive. They do indeed take their time brewing the coffee and other drinks, so I'm quite impressed with that. They also do have some lemon water near the entrance you can quench your thirst with before grabbing your food and/or drinks. It's kind of by itself, so it's easy to skip as the location is a bit nondescript. I think I'll come back for breakfast the next time I'm in Los Angeles. read more
