Pradera Brunch - Yummy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baldwin Park, California

See all

Pros- delicious food, food comes out quick, to-go option is viable. You can order to go when it gets busy. Cons- pradera is known for brunch. Gets busy during brunch hours (Sat/sun 10-11am) Long lines to dine in. We originally wanted to get a quick bite before logic jujitsu started. It was one of those morning where we were running behind schedule and just grab something. We yelped for a quick bite and saw pradera. Looked at some pictures and got the breakfast sandwich and banana foster pancakes. We ate the food in the car. I was impressed because we ordered to go and they separated the banana foster sauce. Btw I have no idea what banana foster was my son picked it from a photo. Later we learned that. Banana foster is cooked with alcohol. I'm sure the alcohol is burned off but once mom found out me and my son switched meals. We both enjoyed both dishes. My son age 6 watches nick digiovanni on YouTube. He was lured by pradera's wagyu burger. He loves the burger and fries so much. That he actually finishes his meal. This boy can't finish a McDonald's happy meal burger or a plain in n out cheeseburger. We've returned several times because of this. Since then we've tried several things. Special mention to their pork belly dishes. I think we tried the pork belly fried rice and pork belly tacos. Pradara cooks pork belly a little different here. Worth coming just to try the pork belly dishes. On our 4th or so visit we came with friends who also have picky eating kids. They also finished their wagyu burgers without having to bribing them with ipad. Ran into the owner. He mentioned that "pradera" means " the meadow" - very nice he mentioned that cause it helps me remember the restaurant name. Very chill place. Can come dressed up or casual you won't feel out of place. Service is ok- nothing noteworthy. We mainly come for the food. What I'm excited to try is their drinks in a bag. Super interesting. read more

We decided to try this place for Father's Day, and I am so glad they open at 7:00 a.m. We were able to make a reservation for 7:45 a.m. and avoid all of the crowds. The restaurant is located in a strip mall with ample parking. The space itself is very quaint and thoughtfully decorated. It was a beautiful morning, so we opted to sit on the patio, which made for a great start to the day. The staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. My husband ordered the Latte-tini, which he greatly enjoyed as his morning coffee drink. I had the Strawberry Matcha, which is sweetened with honey and topped with a strawberry foam. As someone who normally drinks matcha unsweetened, I was a little disappointed that the sweetness level could not be adjusted. However, I was pleasantly surprised that it was not overly sweet. I still would have preferred a little less sweetness, but it was a balanced drink overall, and the honey flavor was a nice touch. My husband ordered the Chile, Relleno Burger, which he absolutely loved and devoured. The Chile relleno paired well with the burger, and the burger was not as large as he initially expected, which actually worked out perfectly for him. The fries were also flavorful and nicely crispy. My son ordered the chicken tenders and fries, which were a solid option for kids. I ordered the Lengua en su Jugo, which featured a delicious, non-spicy green sauce with beans, bacon bits, and garnishes. It was genuinely delicious. The lengua was tender without being chewy or mushy, and the flavors came together really well. Honestly, the only thing I was disappointed by was that the tortillas were not handmade. To finish, my husband and I shared an order of the molletes, which ended up being the highlight of the meal. The bread was light and airy rather than a thick, heavy bolillo, and the butter and sugar added the perfect touch of sweetness and crispness. We are definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more items on the menu. Overall, this is a pretty solid spot for brunch and one that I would happily recommend. read more

Atmosphere is nice. This place used to called Vaca Brunch when I last came. Anyways, it's upgraded some to a more brunch type vibe. Service is 6/10. We just got off a 4-day cruise so we're not dressed up. I felt like that's maybe why.. but regardless. The $49 steak was a flop. Lots of fat and the steak is very low quality especially for the hefty price. 5.5/10 Drinks (banana and marzapan) were 10/10. Delicious. Marzapan French toast 4/10. The French toast was dry inside and still somehow very soggy. Bean and cheese appritizer 7/10. The cheeses were cold and some of it looked old. read more

I came here a few yrs ago when it was called Vaca. Back then, I used to come quite frequently cause I worked closer, and the staff back then was really friendly. So I noticed that the place itself was still functioning, but w a different name. Since they didnt say anything about a new management, I assume they only changed the name and period. So I go there on a Monday when i had off and sure enough, the place is boppin'. And again, a friendly staff greets me, they have mostly the same decor I notice and soon enough, a waitress takes my order quickly, and then, I end up ordering a black mole chilaquile and I believe a peanut horchata or something like that. Im going to be honest, I did not like the chilaquiles. I may not be mexican, but I have tried mole hundreds of time, regular mole, red one, black one and green one, and even tho the taste was there, the level of SALT this plate had, was alarming. I didnt end up eating it all, and I felt bad but thats the one thing I remember about this place. Would still come back tho, just dont make the mole soo salty. read more

Brunching with my dad and the pup so we took the outside seating which is very nice. Inside ambience and decor is slightly modern yet cozy. I liked their dinnerware. Great food presentation. The green chilaquiles were just how I like them, crunchy, mild, and hot. Our waitress was very pleasant although she forgot a few items, she corrected the issue with no hassle. Will definitely return! Plenty of parking although it can get busy. I hear it is especially busy on the weekends and waiting time can exceed an hour. We visited during the week and did not have to wait at all. read more

Daisy the absolute best service! I've been here twice, and both times the food, drinks and service did not disappoint! Portions are great. Dishes are flavorful. Drinks in a bag is a must! It's in a convenient shopping center, with plenty of parking. Both indoor and outdoor seating. The music they were playing in the morning set the tone for our day. Great playlist! This has become our go to breakfast place. read more

Came here for the first time to have brunch with my bestie! Service was 10/10, great recommendations for both food and drinks (not pictured). The food was good. Chicharron y guacamole was okay, huge chunks of jalapeños inside the guacamole which was a shock to my tongue I was not expecting LOL I'd rate it a 6/10, probably wouldn't get it again. The Chicharron themselves were good. Fresas con crema waffles were delicious, 8/10! Not too sweet at all & the waffles were soft with a slight crunch. The star of the show was the chilaquiles w/chorizo, so bomb! 10/10! The restaurant itself isn't too big but not super small either, lots of seating inside and some seating outside as well. They do have larger tables if you're planning to come with a group. Parking is super easy as the restaurant is located in a large plaza. Overall experience was great, I would come back again. read more

The ambiance is very cutesy and romantic! I got sat right away and they had the cutest concha appetizer which I got, along with a cafe de olla. Both were very good. Representation of food was so good! Service was nice and friendly. I took a bunch of pictures. For reference I got the conchas, chilaquiles, and wet burrito. Big portions and definitely shareable. read more

I was excited to try this place and was a bit disappointed as service was not the best. It was not such a busy day, and we kept having to ask for refills on water. We ordered the boring breakfast, queso fundido(appetizer)- which only came with 3 tortillas which was not enough to finish the appetizer. We ordered the breakfast skillet and the chilaquiles. The bacon was burned on both plates. We got the appetizer and no plates until after eating for a while then they brought plates. Also thought it was interesting we got plastic cups for water while the table next to use got regular cups. I ordered the pink carlota drink and it was delicious. Food expectations were much higher, and truthfully wasn't the best. Average and decent. Cute place to check out. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but the experience was more frustrating than enjoyable. First off, if you're trying to make a reservation, don't bother calling -- no one answers. My cousin tried calling on two different days with no luck. When we signed up on the waitlist, the app showed no parties ahead of us, but when we asked in person we were told there were two parties ahead. Then the app suddenly showed one person ahead of us? Very confusing and poorly communicated. We were told the wait would be 40 minutes or less, but we ended up waiting over an hour. While this wasn't entirely the restaurant's fault (a large party had already paid and chose not to leave), it still affected the overall experience. This place is definitely not recommended for large parties -- everyone else seemed to get seated quickly. Food-wise, it was hit or miss. The licuado de chocolate was delicious -- very chocolatey, and I loved that you could actually taste the banana. The chilaquiles were yummy, and the guacamole had good flavor. However, some of the chicharrón was too hard, which was disappointing. On top of that, we weren't given any utensils or napkins for the appetizers (chicharrón and ceviche), which feels like a basic oversight. There was also confusion around refills. Fountain soda is free refill, but Mexican Coke isn't since it's bottled -- fine. However, orange juice for my little cousin wasn't a refill either, which wasn't clear. The menu states free refills for café de olla, but when we asked, we were told that only applies to hot café de olla -- something that wasn't specified on the menu. Overall, the food has potential, but between the long wait, inconsistent communication, lack of basic table setup, and unclear policies, the experience fell short. With better organization and clearer expectations, this place could be much better. read more

Let's start before you even get there: my cousins called four times over two days to ask about hours and reservations -- no one ever answered, she even left voicemails. So if you're planning to call ahead, don't rely on it. We were quoted a 40-minute or less wait at 10:50 a.m. Yelp showed zero parties ahead of us, and the hostess confirmed it. Suddenly, there were two parties ahead of us... then five more parties were seated before us. We were told the tables "had paid already and were just waiting to leave." After 20 minutes of that explanation, we were finally seated at 12:20 p.m. That's a 1 hour and 30 minute wait for a promised 40 minutes. Also important to note: for parties of 6 or more, 20% gratuity is automatically added, so even if service is rough, you're still paying it. Now, the good: The inside is BEAUTIFUL -- very woodsy and floral, super aesthetic. They also have two gender-neutral bathrooms, which is appreciated. Food-wise, the chicharrón and guac was delicious -- super crispy and flavorful. I ordered the pork belly eggs benedict (scrambled), and the pork belly was AMAZING. Potatoes were crispy, eggs tasted like eggs (which is good), and the sauce worked well. Service, however, was very disorganized. Our server was Ariana, but honestly, it was hard to tell because multiple people were helping us and no one really checked in. They brought our food before utensils and napkins -- we had to ask for them. When they finally arrived, only three people got metal utensils and the rest of us got plastic ones I ordered an iced café de olla. The menu states "free refill," but apparently that only applies to the hot version -- which is not specified anywhere on the menu. I had the manager (Daisy) clarify, and she confirmed it's hot drinks only. I suggested they update the menu, because as written, it's misleading. To top it off, no one checked on us while we were eating. Drinks for my cousin's boyfriend and the little girl with us ran out, and we couldn't ask for refills because... no one came by. I'm still low-key salty about my café de olla refill situation . Overall: beautiful space and good food, but the wait time, lack of communication, and inattentive service really hurt the experience. I wanted to love this place more, but they seriously need to work on organization and guest communication. read more

There's something about hiking 7.5 miles that brings out an appetite... here comes Pradera Brunch into my life. We were a bit intimidated by the possible wait time but decided to try it out it anyway. Party of 4, peak hour, and we were seated in less than 30 minutes on a Saturday ( late morning). Parking: located in a shopping center so there's plenty of parking, but the lot was pretty full. There's inside and outdoor seating. The inside was beautifully decorated. Tons of food and beverage options. If we ever decide to go on this crazy hike again- we will definitely come and eat here again. SHOUT OUT TO OUR WAITRESS MARIA WHO WAS NOTHING SHORT OF FAB.U.LOUS!!! WE WILL BE SEEING YOU SOON MARIA! read more

We came here for brunch for 3. We tried to do a reservation, but were not able to and walked in instead. It was not a long wait at about 10am. We actually had to wait for our party to all be present. We ordered the cafe de olla and waters. We also got 2 chilaquiles and the breakfast skillet with sausage and bacon. We were also near the kitchen so we got to see all the food coming out. The drinks are so pretty and it was not what we had gotten. The food was delicious and none of us has leftovers. We definitely want to come back since the portions were perfect too. The cafe de olla was not too sweet either. The service was efficient and the waitress was so patient with us. We noticed there was a 90 minute limit too just as an FYI. We left beforehand so we are not sure how strict that part is. read more

Met my husband here on a Thursday morning for breakfast when he was in the area for work. There was no wait and were seated upon arrival. The interior is cute. They're running a fun holiday specials menu right now with creative seasonal drinks and plates. Service was genuinely friendly. We started with the Pan de Queso, warm and fluffy, and two well layered drinks: a strawberry and horchata matcha cold-foam drinks. Both were good! My husband ordered the enchiladas and was raving about them. Handmade tortillas, generously stuffed, great flavor. The only tiny nitpick was that as they got cold and was near finishing, the second piece he gave me, was a little hard. I went with the Smoked Brisket Benedict. Unfortunately I was starting to come down with something that day and my taste buds were already off, so the texture and slight sweetness of the brisket just wasn't sitting right with me. The brisket did not taste nor look smoked. It had a slight sweet-ish taste, after the first and only bite of the second one, I gagged... I had to tap out. It could have just been me, but my experience should not deter anyone from trying it. read more

There are some restaurants you regret ever visiting, and others you cannot wait to revisit. VACA Brunch & Beyond is definitely the latter. As a first-time visitor, I had no idea what to expect, but upon entering, everything about this place felt just right. The decor here is so lovely and inviting, with wooden tables, and it's both beautiful and relaxing. The aroma of delicious food being prepared in the kitchen will remind you of home-cooked meals, and the overall vibe here is relaxed and fun. Come on, they have a replica of a large cow out in front. Thus, the name of the restaurant, VACA, which means cow in Spanish. The service here was FANTASTIC as my wife and I were seated within seconds of entering, and our drink orders were taken within 30 seconds of taking our seats. Our very friendly waitress took our food orders shortly thereafter. As we waited for our food to be delivered to our table, we couldn't help but notice the various orders of food being delivered to other tables. Wow! Everything looked DELICIOUS!. We waited approximately 12 minutes for our food to be delivered to our table. Every item on both of our plates looked unbelievably delicious. One taste of each item made us believers that we had hit the jackpot! There were so many flavors going on; each item was seasoned perfectly, and everything on both our plates was cooked to perfection. Our waitress checked on us several times while we had breakfast to make sure we were doing okay. GREAT JOB!! This was a very positive dining experience. read more

This was my first time trying Vaca and it was fantastic. It definitely won't be my last. I had the chilaquiles with green sauce, and over-medium eggs. The green sauce was tangy with a mild kick, and my eggs were cooked to absolute perfection. The whites were completely set with no slimy parts, while the yolk was partially cooked, and had a jammy, custard like consistency. They also had a rich slow ooze, when I cut into them, and they did not run everywhere. This is definitely a hard order to get right but this place aced it. And the chef nailed it!! 10 out if 10 in my book. read more

Stopped in with my son for our "mom and son" get together breakfast every once in a great while! He recommended this place in Baldwin Park cuz he was craving Pancakes. Sure, why not? I'm always game to try something new. We drove down Maine street and he told me to park inside the shopping center area.. Didn't recognize the area due to all the changes over the years. I asked him, where? He said on the corner. Hmm, where? We walked up and to my surprise, what once WAS something else was now "Pradera Brunch." We put our name in, waited a few minutes and were seated. A very nice waitress approached us took or Cafe de olla order. It was sweet, needed creamer but it was as ok. I ordered Chilaquiles and my son a big breakfast with pancakes. My chilaquiles were good, crunchy with beans on the bottom and scrambled eggs. My son ordered breakfast and pancakes, huge appetite of course. Service was excellent, atmosphere was very relaxing, not a-lot of nonsense going on. The food, well check out the picture.
