We've only been for breakfast and early afternoon so far, but I can absolutely see why this place gets such great reviews. The food is delicious, beautifully presented, and the atmosphere is such a pleasant surprise. It has a classy, understated automotive vibe with a beautiful bar and a comfortable, welcoming dining area. The French toast was fantastic! Definitely one of those hidden gems you might not expect to find tucked away in Santa Paula. Great food, great atmosphere, and a place we'll absolutely be coming back to. Highly recommend!

I was dining alone and sat at the bar. It was extremely busy, but Antonia, the bartender, was absolutely killing it. She was nonstop the entire time and clearly doing her best to keep up with everyone, so I definitely want to give her credit. Because it was so busy, it did take a while to get a drink, and my bread came out with my meal. I ordered the filet trio and thought the flavors were really good, but I asked for my steak medium and it came out well done. I was a little disappointed, but I'm not someone who likes to send food back, so I gave it a chance anyway. Another patron mentioned that it isn't normally that busy, so I'm thinking I may have just caught them on an unusually hectic night. The food, atmosphere, and service were still good enough that I'd come back and try it again, hopefully on a quieter evening.

This was so delicious! And such wonderful customer service. Even though we came on a Saturday…read moreduring brunch time and the staff was very busy, every staff member we interacted with was so kind and cheerful. We had a reservation but got seated shortly after the reservation time. If you don't have a reservation, expect to wait at least 30+ minutes. The food is definitely worth the wait. We got the salmon and poached eggs waffle, the smores waffle, original, and the Benny Bought a Farm waffle. All was delicious!!!!! They have homemade lemonades as well. Their side of potatoes was also super yummy. Just a note that I requested decaf coffee and it comes from an instant coffee machine and tastes very artificial--not what you expect for the price. We asked about it and they were very kind and offered to replace it with another drink for free. We would love to come back again next time we're in Newbury Park for breakfast!

We had an 11am reservation on Labor Day, and we arrived at 10:38am, hoping to get seated early. The…read morehostess informed my partner that there were 3 parties ahead of us with reservations so it would probably be about a 15-20 min wait. We figured that's perfect since it's our reservation time anyway. 11am rolls around and we still hadn't been called or got a text that our table was ready. My partner goes back in to see how much longer, and they weren't able to provide an estimated wait time, only confirmation that we were checked in. We were finally seated at 11:25am, with sincerest apologies for the wait and first round of drinks on the house, which was a really nice gesture. Our waiter, Oscar, greeted us and immediately said his boss told him free drinks on the house, and asked what we wanted. I can't tell you how much I really appreciated not only the gesture, but the message being passed down the chain of command. I don't know how many other restaurants I've been to, where we've been told something is on the house due to a mistake and then when we get the bill it isn't. The fact that they made double sure that it was clear we would be compensated a free round a drinks was very impressive to me. Great customer service, accountability and fantastic leadership. Oscar was a great server too. He told us to scan the QR code on the menu because it had picture options, and there were items there that weren't on the menu. After each person placed our order, he'd made comments such as "that's one of my favorites!" or "I really like that one!" which was a nice confirmation that he is knowledgeable on what we are ordering. At one point, he brought our waters and said that the bartenders were still making our drinks, but after he took our order he was going to help the bartender. Again, great customer service, work ethic, and team work. Now onto the food. In terms of drinks we ordered two watermelon lemonades, a cold brew and coffee. For food, we ordered The Gravy Train, Chicken and Waffles, You Had Me at Burger, Benny Met A Cali Girl, and Waffle Cute. I really enjoyed the food. Let me tell you, every single person at our table cleared their plate. Apparently, today our table was feeling very savory, but I would love to go back and try some of their sweeter options. My personal standout was the seasoned potatoes. I'm the type of gal who needs to try a bite of my everything my partner orders and when I took one bite, I somehow finished his entire side of seasoned potatoes. They were perfectly crunchy on the outside with a good amount of potato (not too much, not too little) on the inside. I loved them. Maybe this was just bad timing on our part because it was a holiday, and we came at lunch time, but I did notice it did take a long time to receive our food. We received our food at 12:07pm. I can't remember exactly what time we placed our food order, but if we were seated at 11:25am, 45 minutes seems like quite a wait to order and for the food to arrive. I imagine if the bartender was backed up, the kitchen was probably too. Overall, I think if you don't have any plans for the rest of the day, or if they're flexible, definitely give this place a try. When I think "brunch" this is the exact type of food I want in terms of quality and quantity. I also felt like the price was fairly priced for what we received. Parking is also plentiful and free. Lastly, I was very impressed with the customer service from both management and our waiter.

Every…read moresingle meal was consistently delicious, and I especially appreciated that they had genuinely tasty plant-based options instead of just an afterthought or two. The staff was what really made this place stand out. On our last day, I accidentally miscommunicated my order and ended up with the wrong meal. It was completely my mistake, and I was so disappointed because I had my heart set on a specific waffle (you know when you've been looking forward to something all morning?). Even though it wasn't their fault, they were incredibly kind and gracious. They happily fixed it without making me feel bad, and their warmth completely turned my day around. It may seem like a small thing, but kindness like that sticks with you. They could have easily told me it was my mistake, but instead they chose generosity and excellent customer service. Between the amazing food, the fantastic plant-based options, and some of the kindest staff we've encountered, this became one of our favorite spots on our trip. We tried several different menu items over multiple visits, and every single one was excellent. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in town!

I always get the caramel latte, which I love, and today my friend ordered the mocha. For breakfast, I had the French Toast Combo with two pieces of French toast, two eggs, and three strips of bacon. It was a LOT of food! They were also able to scramble my eggs with milk, which I really appreciated because it makes them so much fluffier. I also really appreciated that my eggs and bacon were served on a separate plate from my French toast. It's a small detail, but I loved that everything wasn't all piled together. My friend ordered the Belgian Omelette with tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, and cheddar. I took a photo of the outside, but the photo definitely doesn't show just how packed this omelette was! The staff is always friendly, and I love that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. I honestly don't think I've ever sat inside because sitting outside by the fountain is such a nice way to enjoy breakfast, especially in the cooler morning hours. If you're looking for a breakfast place with generous portions, lots of variety, and consistently good food, More Than Waffles is definitely worth a visit. They serve lunch too, although breakfast is clearly the star of the menu. I haven't tried lunch yet, but considering how consistent everything else has been, I'll have to give it a try one of these days!

The Belgian waffle is a must especially with the side of butter and Housemade strawberry jam. Recommend going with friends so you can try more things.

I was blown away by how cute this place was with bright colors and Nola inspired decor. The service was incredibly friendly and the food was fresh & well made. Very limited vegan options, actually there was really only two- Buddha Bowl and the Buddha bowl done like a burrito. The bowl was delicious and I didn't feel like I was stuck eating a boring ice berg lettuce with oil and vinegar, if you know what I mean. My bf ordered the Nouveau Garden omelette and demolished it in no time. The portion was pretty standard and not generous like other cafes like Bill's etc but it was still good. Coffee is bottomless. It looks like the price of coffee has really gone up as it was $4+ per cup of black brewed coffee. We were seated in a private little area for two and it couldn't have been more perfect. Side note- the employees here are seriously awesome! I watched one of them patiently guide an elderly woman with a cane into the cafe. He was so polite and kind, the elderly lady seemed smitten with charm. What a wonderful find!

I've tried the Waffles Benedict, Red Velvet Waffle, and the Matcha Waffle, which were all fantastic. The Waffles Benedict, which came with ham and poached eggs, was my personal favorite (the eggs were the perfect runniness; compliments to the chef!). There is also plenty of seating including chairs and booth options, so larger parties, families with kids, or couples can have a comfortable place to dine. As for the prices, the food ranges within the $20s range (any extra add-ons like eggs, ham, etc. cost a few dollars more). I would say this is pretty typical for an LA restaurant, although it may come off as a bit "pricey" for non-locals or travelers. However, they do offer a very diverse menu, so there is definitely something that everyone could enjoy.

The chicken is thick and juicy though, so I loved that about it. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles and I thought this dish was amazinggg. I loved how the syrup came out hot, the chicken was juicy, and the chili butter was just WOW. I'd say this is a must order if you're a fan of chicken and waffles.

They gave everyone on our table complimentary cookies at the end, which was super nice of them.

We sat inside and I ordered a simple brunch with just 2 strips of bacon, 2 over medium eggs and waffles. The server asked me if I wanted a full size waffle or half size and as I was watching the other people order I noticed people were not hesitating to order the full size option and I thought dang, they are not gonna finish that, so I opted for the half serving which was 2 pretty good sized waffles. Once I took my 1st bite, I suddenly regretted only ordering the half size option. I instantly knew right then and there why people ordered the full size. A waffle is a waffle right guys? Wrong... not this waffle. This waffle will make you feel love inside that you didn't know existed. As we were walking inside the restaurant I actually was picking a fight with my husband for no apparent reason... possibly because I was hungry but after I took my first bite, I forgot about the argument haha. I told him he needs to bring me here ALL THE TIME. I am yet to come back a 2nd time and I already anticipate loving it the 2nd time. We drove by one day hoping to have a 2nd try here and it was really busy so we didn't make the stop. I look forward to coming back and the next time around I will not hesitate to order a full size waffle order. The staff was really nice, our server was this young lady who was waiting on all the tables inside and some outside was on top of it. She was really pleasant and the gentlemen in the back were also nice. The restaurant was clean when we visited and the service was really quick. We parked down the street, the walk wasn't too bad, we didn't know where to park but I read some of the other reviews and I guess there's a parking in the back somewhere. If you live nearby and you haven't visited, do yourself a favor and try them out. If you travel from far away like me and you're looking for a breakfast or brunch spot with delicious waffles, this is the spot.
