    Damico with a side of fruit
    Ray M.

    First off the location is great and right off Hermosa Beach. Weather is amazing. But really the staff is friendly, communicative, easy going, and really capture the beach attitude. Its laid back. Food menu has a ton of options. My son had the french toast and loved it. I had the Damico omelette and it was perfect. I always ask for salsa and they had that. Its a casual place with a friendly vibe. Love going here any time Im down in Hermosa early.

    Breakfast it's one of the toughest services that you can provide. Last Sunday me and my wife were looking for a place to have Breakfast, and we found Uncle Stavros Café... I asked for an omelette and my wife for some French toast and let me tell you. It was an unexpected pleasure. The food was excellent, very well presented, at the perfect temperature, and with the exact amount of fruit in the side. We were served by the son of the owner, a sweet John guy, with the best attitude in the world, as soon as we arrived, he reserved us with coffee that by the way, was very very good. The place is full of light due to the windows in the ceiling, and a side of the whole space. We enjoyed breakfast as we didn't. In a long time. I highly recommend a place that by the way, it's affordable and fine. You should try it.

    Uncle Stavros Omelette with a side of fresh fruit. And the cafe mocha so good!

    I just had the best omelette of my life! I've been meaning to do a review for this small family local spot for some time, and today's experience has pushed me over the top. The food quality and presentation here is about as good as it gets. I had the Uncle Stavros omelette today and was blown away how good it was. They use the freshest ingredients and every element was cooked perfectly. If I sound like a fan, so be it. Did I mention the cafe mocha is amazing?! I highly recommend you try this little spot in Hermosa Beach. And maybe along the way (responding to some scathing crazy sounding reviews) give them a little bit of a break if they're off a bit in their hours or if they don't want your laptop in their restaurant. This is a truly classic family operation of good hearted people who do a beautiful job. Come in relaxed, leave with a full tummy and a huge smile for a family affair that does a pretty awesome job. :)

    Greek coffee
    Saphace A.

    Really great service here! I think we met the owner. He explained the Greek coffee which my sister and cousin ordered. It has a bit of sugar and coffee grounds at the bottom that you're supposed to drink. I got a cappuccino. Delicious! And probably one of the better cappuccinos I've had in the city. They have a cafe side and a restaurant side. The seating is separated. It's a great location by the beach. It didn't seem to get the amount of foot traffic as other restaurants closer to the pier.

    Yesterday I had lunch there for $24. I paid Apple Pay $24. and in the morning I discovered that they had charged another $23 from my card. They thought I was a tourist and decided to steal money from my account. They are hacking bank accounts. Be careful people. Don't go to uncrowded small cafes

    We came here for breakfast. Small, cozy breakfast and brunch place that's been in this neighborhood for years. It has both indoor and outdoor seating. My partner has dietary restrictions due to his health- wonderfully they made our breakfast plates as requested not soaking in butter or oil. The hash browns were perfectly crisp without being soaked in oil. The servers were here were nice and understanding with our food modifications and requests. This is a nice stop for brunch / lunch if you don't want to go all the way to the pier. Their menu though is limited- only breakfast items & gyros available. Lunch items weren't when we visited.

    Hermosa omelette with perfect avocados
    Rainy D.

    Came here for breakfast on a sunny Sunday morning. The place is tiny but full of life and good food. There were two large groups enjoying their Sunday morning breakfast - one was young families with babies and one with many years of wisdom. I had the Hermosa omelette with hash browns and sourdough toast. The hash browns were brown! Not soggy, not half-cooked - all crispy! The bacon in the omelette was thick and crispy. The tomatoes were fine and the avocado was perfect. And best of all - cholula for my hash browns! Yum. I will be back and for the Greek food next time!

    Gyro
    Danielle R.

    I got the gyro, it was pretty good! I would've liked a bit more meat on it. It's a great atmosphere and they have nitro cold brews on tap

I'm an adult woman, almost 48, and I don't appreciate being told how I should behave in a disrespectful way. At one point, an employee even told me not to talk to other customers--even when they were the ones starting conversations with me. That felt like bullying. Thankfully, that employee is no longer there, but the overall attitude still hasn't fully improved. I've been bringing my two dogs with me for a long time without any issues. Recently, I was told I can't use the bathroom anymore--even just to quickly wash my hands before eating. I understand rules about dogs not being allowed in certain areas, and that was explained properly, but the way everything was handled felt unnecessary and unwelcoming. Because of this shift in attitude, I've noticed other customers have stopped coming as well, like Alex and Trisha. Some people have even mentioned that the overall environment and customer treatment aren't as good as they used to be. It's disappointing, because this used to be a place I really liked. Now it feels like the attitude has changed, and not in a good way.

I promise I don't smell bad and I brush my teeth before I come. I smell really good. I promise! I think the owner is probably on some hipster nonsense bs energy. Cool man...yeah man...

Two of us ordered the Buddha vegan bowl (9/10; quinoa was fluffy, tofu was tasty but a little firm for me, everything else about it was fresh and well-done. The mushroom serving was my favorite part.) My friend ordered the Beef Macro bowl (9/10: beef was the best part and everything else was good. The wild rice was tender; but it tastes "healthy"). My last friend ordered the salmon bowl (9/10: all of us raved about the salmon. Had the same wild rice. I liked it but my friend said it was too soft for her. The rest of the items that came with it were similar and tasty). Before I left, Molly helped me order a mushroom reishi hot chocolate drink. Molly was so sweet and helpful. She recommended the homemade almond milk. (8/10). The ambiance was warm and cozy. I loved the multi-level structure. Therefore, the name, "The Hive". Cute design and a good place to bring a computer and have a quiet spot to chill.

We got sat pretty quickly as this place was busyyyy. busyyy worker bees. Everyone was wanting to get a seat at Martha's! I only waited about 20 minutes if that. Not too shabbyyyy ! I started with an iced Spanish latte as I love my Spanish lattes. This is where everything started going downhill. First sip, questionable. Second sip, even more questionable. Mix the coffee with the straw for a minute, another sip, even worse. It tasted like I was drinking the water from a burnt coffee bean with a hint of cinnamon. It was NOT good. I was very sad. I ended up ordering an iced chai latte as a secondary choice.. because how hard is it to mess up a chai? WELP. It was managed to be messed up as well. How?! Martha girl, who was making the drinks this day, cause nuh uh, more training now. The iced chai latte was watery. It did not resemble a chai at all, even the color was weird. I took 2 sips and never finished either drink. I had my counterpart try it-- mind you, I took a sip and gave no reaction to not bias my counterpart. Once they tried it, they were just as astonished to how horrible both drinks were. They ordered the banana bread latte. oh my-lanta. Artificial, sweet, sour banana flavor, he had it switched out for a blended pump shake that was much better-- REALLY sweet, but they loved it. For the breakfast option, I ended up ordering the huevos playa. The hashbrowns were cooked evenly and tender. The sauce/salsa it was sitting in. not it. you're not that guy pal. tasted like pace salsa from a jar or something. that weird salsa taste that makes you aware that it is not home made. I did not like it whatsoever. The sour cream, guac and eggs were the only thing I enjoyed out of this dish. I would not order this again. The cinnamon pancake was the only thing that saved the experience, but even then, $17 for a singular pancake is absolutely insane. Overall, I was extremely, and I mean extremely, disappointed. I wish it lived up to all the social media hype that is around, but my taste buds were extremely unhappy leaving. Service was great, the lady removed the banana bread latte off our bill for not liking it, but I stayed with my 2 awful drinks. I ended up going to a coffee shop to fill my Spanish latte cravings after leaving. Parking is on the street, metered. fills up FAST.

I sent it back they brought the same sandwich out. They have been making the drinks incorrectly (because they are always training new staff since the fall and it's almost spring).

It's on the wall by their orange trashcan from a woman probably tossing their tampon from a seated position. Their tables are often dirty lately. They did recently get new seats. Coffee beans are very good but, when you can't enjoy the location anymore it over shadows everything that's good. I spend 200-300 at a time for coffee beans. I can't even walk in to get a bag without your newest male staff member being very short with you at the register. I'm not sure why. I miss the smiles. I miss the baristas that really got to know you. What happened?

    I mean, why is their rating so low? If you sit on the patio, the views are great. I can imagine…read moremaybe they had an issue with poor service. That seems to be a bulk of their poor reviews. When I went, service was ok. They don't deserve such a low rating. I think Uncle Bills is better, but I understand why it's way more crowded. So come for the view, just don't be prepared to get your socks blown off by the food. It's passable, come for the view. So, I have a new rating system......I will be write what I feel honestly about an establishment. The only ratings I will give are 5 stars, which is enjoyable, or 3 stars which is "needs work."

    Came by for brunch with a party of three. We were seated at a small table on the outdoor patio,…read morewhich felt a bit cramped for three people. The table was also unbalanced and shaky. We started with a coffee and café latte, which were just okay. We wanted to order the ceviche, but it was unfortunately unavailable. Eggs Benedict with Ham: Not worth the $19 price tag. The egg wasn't very runny, and the overall flavors were nothing special. Belgian Waffle: Met expectations--a safe choice. Breakfast Pita: Essentially a breakfast burrito in pita bread form. Very solid and served with a great hot sauce. The spiced hashbrowns were also a very nice touch. Overall, the menu felt stronger on the Mexican side than the Mediterranean. Unfortunately, the hot sauce ended up being the most flavorful part of our meal. If I were to return, I'd stick to one of the Mexican dishes. Parking: Metered street parking, which can be difficult to find during peak meal times.
