Great place for brunch, small restaurant & patio seating with shade umbrellas! They have parking right next to the restaurant, very convenient and free! Pet friendly, which they have to add it to their features on this app. Since they have patio seating and also will be a plus for them. We order their banana pancakes they were 7/10 not very fluffy but their Italian omelette was 10/10 I wanted to order the kale lemonade but maybe next time , i would definitely come back here for their omelettes. Pretty nice service, they were very fast and attentive with our needs and provided us a water bowl for my dog. read more

Great breakfast joint offering excellent quality ingredients. Eggs were perfect, avocado fresh, bread toasted just right! And to add.. service was great. The only few things to that were a bit tough was parking and the $9 oj! So ambiance is so so as Its at the Travel Lodge so its somewhat busy. Other than that great breakfast spot! read more

Here's a revised review including the potatoes: I had breakfast at Metro Cafe in Culver City and it was excellent. I ordered the spinach and feta omelette and it was honestly unreal. Perfectly cooked with great flavor and really fresh ingredients. The side potatoes were also amazing, super crispy and really good. The service was friendly and the atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you're in Culver City. read more

This is an awesome place to grab breakfast. Their house special banana pancake is absolutely delicious. I also got the potatoes on the side, which I found to be a little bit on the drier side. As with most businesses in this area parking can be challenging at times. We did our order as a take out. read more

Breakfast here was fantastic! The outside is misleading. I thought this place was connected to the motel but it was a standalone. Wonderful service! I would definitely return for lunch. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch on a Saturday. Food was good but a bit pricey and the service was very slow due to the busy time. Servers were very apologetic and continued to check in on us. Convenient spot with parking in the back. read more

Staff was super friendly and I love that they have outdoor seating. The sweet potato fries were undercooked and the Petite Italian Egg dish was so bland. Do not get the petite Italian egg dish. There is no flavor, the eggs were overcooked, and the bread was burned and wasn't good. BUT the meal was salvaged with their metro special banana pancakes. These pancakes were perfectly fluffy and stuffed and topped with bananas and some caramel sauce. So good and is the reason I am eating this place so high. read more

Metro Cafe - Full Order of Sweet Potato Fries - New American Near Me - Culver City, California

Located right under a Travelodge. There is a parking structure next door but I'm not sure if you can park there unless you are staying at the hotel. We found some street parking but it's definitely challenging. They have a few spots outside and plenty of seating inside. We were greeted warmly and got sat at our table. First thing I noticed was that the prices were high. Maybe it's because it's LA or it's under a hotel, but I was still shocked. Pork sausage and bacon: 2.5/5: I asked the bacon to be crispy, but it still came out soft. The pork sausage was good. Glad it wasn't small given the price ($6). Strawberry pancakes: 3/5, I liked how there were strawberries on the inside. They were fluffy and soft but nothing stood out. Breakfast sandwich: 3/5, My boyfriend said it was okay. Majority of the sandwich was egg and it was overwhelming. Good amount of food tho. There's definitely better breakfast spots around. Happy I got to try it but I won't go back. read more

Came Monday morning and got seated quick. Servers are really accommodating and quick! breakfast sandwich, 4/5: Huge portions and has all the fixins. There was also a plum inside the chunky avo/salsa? Overall good taste, but it's just wasn't crave worthy... the side potatoes were thinly sliced and pan fried, so delicious! Even the slices that weren't crsipy were so goooodd; this should be how all potatoes are cooked, much better than tots, fries, or wedges. All the dishes came with a side of cataloupe, which was so sweet and a nice touch. read more

Metro Cafe is one of Culver City's hidden gems when it comes to breakfast and brunch. Every time I eat here, the food is consistently delicious and the portions always hit the spot. Their omelettes are easily some of the best in the area: fluffy, flavorful, and loaded with fresh ingredients. And the French toast? Perfectly golden, slightly crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and just the right amount of sweetness. Truly A-1. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the vibe feels like your neighborhood go-to spot. Whether you're starting your morning or grabbing a relaxed weekend brunch, Metro Cafe never disappoints. Highly recommend! read more

Stumbled into this place on a lazy Saturday and expected a casual diner/brunch spot with non-descript menu items. What I got instead was the best sandwich I've had in recent memory in the Cevapchichi Sandwich. Come to think of it, there is some other eastern euro eats on this menu, and they sell ajvar and other delicacies from afar there as well. The cevapi in my sandwich I cannot sing the praises of enough: paired with arugula and a robust bread on the sandwich that wasn't overbearing and could have actually provided two meals if I had any restraint. The atmosphere at this restaurant is bright and casual and they have indoor and outdoor seating available; we chose to sit inside. Our waiter, whose name escapes me, was quick to tell us a joke and offered to tell us more about anything on the menu we wanted to know more about. We were seated immediately and the wait for food was pretty quick as well. There is parking in the back, or you can street park for 1 dollar an hour. Last but not least, these prices may not seem like diner prices but when you evaluate the cost per pound of food this place is nearly unbeatable. The omelette plate alone is fit for two or maybe three meals, and we ordered pancakes to split between two people (along with the Cevapchichi Sandwich and the omelette plate) and we barely made a dent in the pancakes before waving the white flag. Awesome spot! read more

I honestly wasn't expecting much from Metro Cafe since it was right under our hotel and it wasn't on our itinerary but I am so glad to have gave them a try. Everything we ordered was delicious including the California Omelette, Italian Omelette, and French Toast. All the ingredients in both the omelettes tasted light and fresh. I usually prefer savory foods but the French Toast was surprisingly my favorite. The pieces of toast were thick and crispy and felt like such a treat with the butter and syrup. The space felt a little tight but the service was amazing. Our coffees and waters were consistently being filled to the point that I had to stop them to prevent waste. We even got a discount for staying at the hotel above. Highly recommended! read more

Found this place through a Google search for "breakfast". I got lucky that there was parking in front and it wasn't very busy. I was seated quickly but it went downhill from there. I waited to order, waited for coffee refill that I didn't get, and then had to go ask for my check. It's a nice, clean place. The prices are tourist prices but I have to say my food was DELICIOUS. I ordered an omelet and it came with potatoes that were brilliant, toast, and a piece of cantaloupe. I ate it all. I'll probably go back for the food when I'm in that area and maybe the service will be a little better. read more

I came here for a quiet breakfast my last day in LA and it was an enjoyable experience. I parked down the street (free street parking that day) and was one of the few customers in the morning so was seated quickly. I'm not a big breakfast fan but sometimes if I'm in the mood a hearty breakfast will warm me right up. I ordered their petite Italian toast, which was scrambled egg seasoned nicely on bread, along with a side of sausage and a matcha latte. Definitely more than I usually eat on a weekday morning but it was nice to enjoy my food in a serene corner that was great for people-watching. There are seats outside as well if you prefer to consume your food outdoors with a breeze. The matcha latte was just the right size, giving me a little boost without making me feel too wired. Prices were standard for cafes in this area. The only downside is that there wasn't any WiFi, making this cafe not an ideal place to do work. However, if you're here to have conversation over a good meal, you'll probably enjoy the food and atmosphere. read more

I went there for the buttermilk pancakes and it's was very delicious and filling. The servers were on top of their job and made sure I was well served. The place is next to a hotel so guest can just walk to it. Seating is indoor or outdoor. Pretty decent crowd, but not too crowded. read more

Metro Cafe - 3 Buttermilk Pancakes - New American Near Me - Culver City, California

Stayed at Travelodge Culver City during my stay in LA and Metro Cafe was right below it. Usually hotel lobby food are not good, but to our surprise this place is amazing! Although, the ownership seems to be separate, the hotel offers a $10 voucher to the cafe. The cafe has outdoor and indoor seating, but we requested indoor as the outdoor was right on the sidewalk. The prices for the food was reasonable but the orange juice for $9 was quite steep for me and I did not get to try it. My sister and my boyfriend did order the coffee though and it was unlimited refills. Amongst 4 people, we shared two omelettes and a French toast since everyone was not a pancake person. The Italian and California omelettes were both equally as good and I would order both each time. The cheese and tomatoes in the Italian was so good! And so was the avocados and spinach in the California. The French toast did not disappoint as well. Very fluffy and went perfectly well with the homemade raspberry jam and syrup. Would definitely come back if I'm in town again! Also, Lupe was very attentive and provided excellent service throughout our meal! read more

I came here on a Saturday morning with my boyfriend - we were seated immediately inside, no reservation was needed! Allllll of the wait staff were so so kind, we had multiple different people constantly checking on us and ensuring we were doing okay, it was just so thoughtful! I ordered the California Scramble, subbed potatoes for fruit and added cheddar cheese, and a freshly squeezed orange juice. The number one thing that stood out to me was how FRESH my entire meal tasted. Like it had the freshness of someone having just picked these veggies from a garden out back, it honestly took me off guard! I absolutely LOVED it. From the juice to my fruit and veggies in my scramble, not a single ounce of freshness was spared. This was seriously a job well done for me. As for the ambiance, it wasn't too loud at all! We opted to sit inside only because it was cold outside but I felt the volume was totally reasonable inside. For 2 meals with 2 drinks, we spent a little over $60 and came home with leftovers! Parking is just a little tricky but that's Los Angeles for ya. read more

I love love love their French toast!! Fresh Summer Berries, creamy in the center-crispy on the edges double thick toast with high end maple syrup and rich creamy butter. Much more than enough to share or gobble down yourself. It's heavenly with a vanilla latte or mocha. The service is good too. If your looking for savory try one of their Lucious omelettes. They never disappoint! I love this little off Main Street cafe!!! read more

Breakfast here is amazing! The spinach and garlic scramble was so garlicky and delicious The fresh fruit cup did not disappoint.

Do you like pancakes? Of course you do, you're not a weirdo. Also, do you also like bananas? I'm not talking them regular joints. I'm talking bout the sautéed ones. Those sweet mfs. Yes? Well I want to personally welcome you to paradise. Take a seat, kick back, and enjoy the ride. Tbh I don't know wtf I'm talking about, but these pancakes were fire. Definitely sweet, so if that's not your thing, stay clear. But if you're part of the sweet tooth gang, dive in. They're also "house special", which made me feel extra fancy. I did something I don't think I've ever done before... I ate a pancake without syrup *gasp* I know I know, absolute insanity. But as you can see, there is an abundance of banana sauce that comes with the meal, so syrup in this case (and only this case) is optional. read more

Metro Cafe - 3 Sauteed Banana House Special Pancake - New American Near Me - Culver City, California

Rounding up a 4.5. The food, spot on. "Hands down the best French toast" as far as my partner's concerned, and yes, just the right balance of crisp and tender, sweet and savory, perfectly soaked and cooked. I didn't need the syrup that came with it - the raspberry sauce was the perfect pairing (and I'm usually not into raspberry). The Serbian sausage sandwich was also such a tasty, satisfying dish that we definitely wanted to try because we don't get to see that around these parts much, and we absolutely enjoyed it. All the dishes were more than generously portioned. Service was steady. My only quibble with the experience was the noise indoors and outdoors, but I imagine that varies depending on the day and time. I would absolutely return. read more

If you are looking for a solid breakfast place in Culver City, this just might be the place. The food has a touch of the mixed culture of the upper Adriatic with its food. The Italian toast is excellent, great cafe latte and French Toast. Service is attentive. Parking is tight but there is street parking. The bakery is excellent. There is sidewalk seating for the Boulevardier and interior seating. They are very responsive to your personal preferences. read more

The food here was amazing! I've been to many brunch spots and this is one of the better ones. I highly recommend the banana pancakes and salmon Benedict. The potatoes that come with the Benedict were surprisingly good. Came here on a Saturday late afternoon and the wait wasn't that bad. I was second on the list and got seated within 5 minutes. The food took a while to prepare, about 15 minutes. This is a family spot and kid friendly. The staff here is cool. I did street meter parking. I had no issues finding parking however I can foresee it being a problem for others! They close at 3 pm for brunch and open again at 6pm for dinner. As for reservations, they do not take reservations for brunch and only take reservations for dinner. The restaurant was located on the sidewalk merged with a travel lodge incase people can't find it. read more

Had a great time here, the staff was very nice and accommodating. The tofu scramble with egg was good, but it definitely needed salt. It was loaded with veggies and came with sourdough toast, despite the lack of salt it was delicious. We also got the ham and cheese omelette, which was good. The banana pancakes were the absolute best! So huge and so yummy, filled with bananas in the pancakes and on top and the sauce was so good! Would definitely get the pancakes again! read more

Great omelette and fantastic service. Luis is the best service. The location is very centric and well located.

Whoa I didn't know this place was popular. A thousand reviews? Geez I thought it was just some Travelodge spot. Sadly no wifi to finish my homework but they do have some epic French toast here it looks like. Outdoor seating for me and doggo. Prices are definitely uh, LA prices to be blunt. Just got coffee cuz that was still five bucks. If they could mooch off the hotel wifi this place would be perfect. Great service anyway. read more

Great brunch place that can get very busy on a Sunday. We waited maybe 20 mins after putting name down on the waitlist for a table of 5. They have some unique breakfast platters on the menu. I opted in for Serbia Americano which contains: - Two toasters (you can choose bread type. I chose sour dough). - Scrambled egg with tomatoes and bacon - 3 slices of pork (an acquired taste and too salty for me) - Hash brown - 3 generous portions of mozzarella. Love it! - 1 bite of cantaloupe Definitely a filling meal even after our morning hike! Service was fast and friendly. I would come back in future. read more

This place's omelettes were so unique. It is an open omelette concept with all the fillings outside of the omelette. I felt like there were too many asparagus in the seasonal veggie one and it overwhelmed me. The eggs were fluffy and cooked perfectly. The smashed potatoes were crispy and seasoned well. The orange juice was freshly squeezed, I would definitely recommend getting this! The staff were quick and friendly. It is a simple cafe and perfect for breakfast. read more
