I am surprised at how many stars this place has, to be quite honest! We must have had a completely…read moredifferent experience than is the norm. My husband and I shared an acai bowl and garden scramble. To start off positive, the roasted potatoes with the scramble were excellent and they were kind enough to sub our toast for fruit at no extra charge. The scramble itself tasted as it should have. The acai bowl was terrible. It was extremely watery (like the consistency of juice) and had ice chunks in it. We should have returned it right away to ask them to make it again, but I was really surprised at how bad it was. Absolutely would not get again. The coffee was also bad. I was expecting diner coffee, but it was not good for even diner coffee. I don't think I would be back nor would I recommend this place as a breakfast option while in Cambria.

Located in east village and on Main Street, it's on the corner and can't be missed. Very happy we came here for lunch because we had a great experience! I had the chicken pot pie and finished every bite. The chicken filling and gravy was tasty and the pie crust was perfect. We also had the turkey sandwich with salad which I would recommend if you're looking for a light lunch. The ollalieberry dressing on our salad was a great choice; the berry isn't as tangy as blueberry but tastes like a cross between that and a strawberry. They also have a to go service option on the side. We stopped there to grab a slice of the ollalieberry pie : highly recommended! Great service and food.

For the last 3 or 4 months I've been having breakfast at the Cambria Cafe at least once a week…read more The food has always been prepared perfectly, and Becky, the crack-of-dawn server, has made me feel truly welcome, far beyond simple regular-customer courtesy. I've done some comparison shopping in recent weeks, and the cafe wins every time. One place in town prepares "country potatoes" as large cubes of potato with no seasoning. Cambria Cafe cooks prepare them as small cubes, seasoned and fried exactly as I like (I can't define the spice combination, but I like it). My scrambled eggs are never dry or runny, and hash browns invariably have just the right crisp texture. They also serve really good coffee, something which most restaurants can't seem to manage. This morning I tried their chicken-fried steak for the first time, and it was as good as my wife's, which is saying something. The ambiance is what I'd expect from a small local cafe, comfortable, but not extraordinary. I'll continue to patronize "my" cafe as long as they'll have me.

It had the beans, rice & cheese elements of the burrito and the crispy chimi shell. Unfortunately it came dry, no sour cream guac or even sauce on the side. Inside, the carnitas was too salty, but the beans and cheese were good. I added one star for the singing cook we could hear in the back. I like eating where people like to work.

I had chile verde and eggs. Very little meat and the green chile was salty, but otherwise flavorless. Homemade corn tortillas were Ok, but looked machine made. Also, if u don't speak Spanish u may be out of luck. I do, but when my wife would ask a question in English, the lady replied in Spanish..... $58. for2 meals later, we ran from this place.

You can feel the genuine care in how they treat both each other and their customers. I ordered the huevos rancheros, which were exactly what you want from a classic diner: simple, consistent, and tasty. Nothing fancy, but really satisfying. The potatoes were cooked well -- not crispy, but lightly done and comforting. The coffee was a standard dark roast served in a thick diner mug, exactly how a good diner coffee should be. There's plenty of parking, plus both indoor and outdoor seating. They have heaters all around, which is perfect since it can get chilly in Cambria. Overall, Redwood Café is a warm, reliable spot with great service and solid comfort food. A true gem of a family-run diner.

There is ample parking in the lot. They get busy on weekdays around 8:30-9:00, so if you can go for breakfast between 7:00-8:30, they will be less crowded. On our visit for breakfast on a Tuesday/Wednesday around 8:30 service was a little slow to get our order in. The food came out at a moderate, but not fast pace. We got a mimosa, classic eggs Benedict with hash browns and fruit. The eggs Benedict was a bit runny, the muffin was not too tough and not too soaked, the amount of ham was a bit light on one of the two, and the sauce had a good flavor. The mimosa was about standard. The menu has a good selection with a number of other items to choose from. We would come back here, but it is just ok and not stellar. For example, Broken Yolk consistently makes a better eggs Benedict than RC does. Overall, we would recommend giving them a try if in town. You will get a good, but not a stellar meal here.
