    First time visiting and will not be the last! Whenever I am back in the Long Beach area I will come here for breakfast again. It's located on a corner with tons of parking on the streets near by. There was a line out the door, it moved quick though wait wasn't long. You line up and are handed menus, order & pay at counter. Since it was mother's Day weekend, there was tons of roses all over the tables. Their pastries are at the register which looked amazing as well. I came with two of my girlfriends and we all ordered the baileys breakfast with eggs our way. We also were craving something sweet so we ordered a waffle, brioche French toast & the Dutch baby pancake. For drinks we ordered a mimosa, cinnagave shaken espresso, a strawberry matcha, & an elderflower mint spritz. The food and drinks looked & tasted amazing! Staff was very personable and they a have self serve water station. Def one of the best breakfasts ive had in a long time Highly recommend!

    Steak & Eggs

    I had heard about this place from a TikTok video, and my husband had also told me about it, so I knew we had to check it out. We decided to go last minute on a Sunday, so the line was around the building by the time we got there at around 12:30pm. We waited around 30 minutes, but it wasn't bad. I think you order at the counter and then they find you a table. However, for us and the party in front, they sat us and then just took our order at the table. My husband ordered steak & eggs and we shared lemon ricotta pancakes (because, of course, we needed something sweet). I got the Bailey's, which you can have bacon or sausage, or one of each. Everything was delicious! We finished our dishes and brought the pancake home, which we for sure would have finished if we weren't so full! We both ordered the Curious George, except mine was decaf. So good! I definitely want to try the matcha version next time. It's such a cute little restaurant and staff is super friendly. I didn't get a good look with the street signs, but we were lucky to find a spot right across from the restaurant. Absolutely enjoyed this place and would go back!

    Happy May y'all! While in Long Beach, I saw this place had killer reviews so I got a few dishes to go and was so happy with my choices. FOOD -Dutch baby pancake. It was delicious and the add-on items were perfect. Highly recommend! -Veggie wrap. Also very good, the sauce was delicious. The veggies had a perfect crunch DRINK -I got their matcha latte with almond milk. it was good and exactly as I expected. PARKING There's construction happening on one road so I parked on the busy road temporarily. Leave yourself time to find parking if that side road is still unavailable. CLEANLINESS Walking into the check out area and it was clean, modern and beautifully decorated.

    Veggie Burrito
    Vivian P.

    Got the vegetable burrito to go with a side of smashed potatoes. The food was ready within 15 min. There's no specific pick up place, but i went to the front and asked a server and they were able to bring out my food right away. The smashed potatoes were okay, very garlicky but nothing special. I would go back just for the vegetable burrito though. Packed with different veggies and so flavorful. The sauce was also yummy.

    Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich

    So great that we went there twice in one trip!! The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, the outdoor seating is cute. But best of all, the food is delicious!!! The first time I got the fried chicken sandwich and this time I got the breakfast skillet which was also superb. All of their drinks are great as well, including their flash brew iced coffee! A must stop in Long Beach

    Always packed with a line. We waited about 15 mins to get seated. Ordered egg sand which and steak and eggs were really good here. Great coffee as well!

    Lobster Omelette
    Jacob C.

    Parking is difficult unless you come before or after street sweeping. You order at the front and they guide you toward seating, then deliver the order to the table. Customer service was great, but it took a while for the drink and food to arrive. The Yuzu Colada Shaken Espresso and Lobster Omelette were both flavorfully flawless. The salad had some sort of lemon/citrus vinaigrette that was immaculate. Unfortunately, they charge a 4% Wellness Plan fee and the petite portion of the omelette left me hungry.

    Breakfast Sando

    Fun neighborhood restaurant. You order at the counter and then THEY find you a table. No worries about saving a table. You did not have to worry about finding a table. They have unique entrees. We ordered the single pancake that 3 inches high and probably 10 inches in diameter. When we cut into it, it was still raw. No worries, they took it back, figured out that the batter was too viscous and did not have enough milk and corrected it and we obviously got a new pancake. Their customer service is the best. While waiting for the new pancake, they gave us a warmed morning muffin on the house. Totally not necessary, but a nice touch by management. The pancake was well worth the wait, crispy outside and fluffy inside.It is made to be shared. Even when we shared it, we had to take the remainder home. We ordered the breakfast sando(sandwich) which was the perfect amount. Food is good, waitstaff is awesome. A great place to sit and enjoy a relaxing breakfast or lunch. I will be back to try their food again.

    Couldn't check into our hotel earlier so decided to check out Zuzu per our host suggestion. Walk was really short from city center hotel, I probably would say 5 minutes from there. Once we got there, we immediately were seated. You just have to come back to order your food. I got the skillet with strawberry pistachio matcha. I got scared before it arrived because someone else had matcha and said they weren't impressed. Once I got mine though, I was impressed. I loved it. My skillet was really good. It got me fulll and I was able to have leftovers. My boyfriend order the burrito and for the price, there was no sides which was a little disappointing but he enjoyed it. Overall, this place is a great first sport for me while visiting CA.

    Jam'n pear matcha

    Zuzu's Petals has been on my list for quite some time after seeing rave reviews about it on Instagram, and it totally lives up to the hype! I'm not really a breakfast person, but this place definitely converted me because the food and flavor combos were so well done! We got the pear jam matcha latte which was tasty and the perfect amount of sweetness. The pear jam went really well with the matcha! I got the flat iron steak and eggs and they were able to upgrade the side of house potatoes to the crispy smashed potatoes which I was very excited about. The steak was medium rare, perfectly cooked, and had a delicious compound butter on top. I got my eggs sunny side up, and you can see how deeply orange and creamy the yolk is - so good and also had a nice jammy texture! The crispy smashed potatoes were crispy on the outside, perfectly fluffy and tender on the inside, and came with a delicious side of chipotle aioli. Truly every component of this dish was spot on! My partner got the chicken and waffles which came with a blueberry compote, cinnamon pecan butter, and maple syrup. The chicken was super fresh and crispy, and the pairing with the blueberry compote and cinnamon butter on the waffle was the perfect sweet and savory bite! They definitely nailed their take on this popular brunch dish as well. We got there around 11AM and there was a small line but it moved fast. You order at the counter first, and I thought it was a very nice touch that the servers assist with finding tables after you order. Most places you just struggle to look for a table after ordering - so the service is very thoughtful! The owner is also out and about making sure things are running smoothly - refilling the water station and to go boxes and interacting with customers as well! We were seated in a shaded patio area that was cutely decorated for Valentine's Day. Definitely a cute date spot for brunch! I see why this has become such a popular place and we will definitely be back to try more things!

    A Long Beach brunch gem! A street-side cafe in Long Beach that hits all the right notes--cozy vibes, friendly staff, and delicious food. The Standouts: * Flat-Iron Steak & Eggs: The steak was tender and seasoned perfectly. Paired with "eggs your way" and their house potatoes, it's a hearty win. * The Bailey's: A total classic. The applewood smoked bacon had that perfect crunch, eggs, local sourdough and that house-made jam. Delicious! * Cafe Latte: creamy and smooth--the ideal companion for a slow morning. Can't wait to come back!

    This place has been voted a top place to eat by fellow Yelpers. The word is out-- this place is a trusted and delectable brunch eatery. With that being said, the question becomes why write a review for a place that not only has street clout but also is a darling for foodies? First, any place or person cannot rely on their august reputation to coast to their golden years, especially in a glut like LA's dining scene. An eatery must always maintain itself with current times and update its eats and design/vibe to remain competitive lest their sheen and luster fade. And thus, I add to the rose petals thrown at this place's feet but also challenge their aesthetic because I found it a bit disjointed--- like a ruby red rose whose stem is made out bark and twig. I had only heard good things about this place and decided to try it with my friend Alexa. She and I had agreed to meet there at 11:00 but I know enough about brunch experiences at celebrated places to go there early or else we might endure a wait that kills a good time. Yes, I would wait for the both us to avoid this possible pitfall. I waited 45 minutes in the line to order. By the time I got close to the register, Alexa arrived. We decided to split the chicken and waffles and also the skillet. She wanted to find a table, but I explained to her that there was a sign I saw as I waited that explained that patrons should not to find their own tables, staff will help them find one. We also got the smashed potatoes and each of us got a coffee. When I was there, waiting, I enjoyed seeing the emblems in red. For instance, I clipped the red door that I passed to get into the joint. It was the threshold that moved me from a line waiter to near customer. And thus this shade of red becomes that much more precious. The rose red was more pronounced and literal in some of the exterior walls of the joint. I clipped a rose silhouette that was precious, and kind of defining of the motif of the place. But it also had mentions of the movie of its a wonderful life. For example, before I got to the cashier I saw the phrase, "every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings." In back of me there were several photos from the film. Now, I have never seen the flick so perhaps roses are predominant in the movie. One of the staff members said that Zuzu was the dog in the film. To make it abundantly clear, I am not sure how red roses connect to a Yuletide favorite. Perhaps the answer lies in the film. But for me on this day, the two primary anchors of design were in competition and not not in cohesion. Perhaps, if the red roses were winter blue the connecting tissue would be easier to understand. The food was strong and easy to enjoy. What surprised me is that I expected to enjoy the waffle and chicken plate more than than skillet but I enjoyed the latter more. The skillet had those fluffy eggs that are made with milk or cream or bliss from a bovine. Now true, there is not much complexity in the dish, but the dish was something basic done extremely well, which is a prize to the patrons. I guess atop of all I could write would be that the skillet had familiar flavors- like cheese, and sausage, and garnish- but elevated to delicious comfort. The waffle and chicken plate was made scrumptious by the maple butter. By the time I got to the chicken and waffle the chicken had lost its fried crisp. The flavor of the batter was there 1000% but without the fried taste the chicken suffered. It was my fault. I did not wait for my food, my food waited for me and in that span of time it had lost its umph! like many do when they wait too long for someone they anticipate. The mashed potatoes were also an excellent bite. Again, familiar, not innovative, but a strong showing of a classic. I particularly loved the well balanced execution of fluff inside and the crisp of the potatoe outside. The smash in this plate was a solid yum. Alexa and I sat outside, right next to the patio, and enjoyed all of the dishes to a good extent. This place definetely offers great classics, with some modern touches. It is an easy answer to where should we go to brunch on a lazy Sunday when you have time to spare.

    Zuzu's is one of my favorite places in Long Beach. Their matcha is so good and the breakfast burrito with soyrizo is my go too! My partner got the chicken and waffles and the flavors were unique and mouth watering. The customer service is excellent and the vibes are filled with love and comfort. I'll definitely be coming back here again.

They coated the chicken in a chili rub that gave it a sweet and spicy flavor when paired with their maple syrup. Served on top of a waffle and topped with an egg. I loved it and would probably order again on my next visit. My wife had the American plate which was your classic eggs, bacon, potatoes, and sourdough toast combo. High quality ingredients elevated it beyond your typical diner food. Drinks were great too. I had their house made bloody mary which had a nice kick to it. My wife had their brunch version of a Corpse Reviver cocktail. After our meals were done we finished with an Irish coffee since everyone was ordering them. Perfect service, relaxing atmosphere, and delicious food will definitely have me returning very soon! Parking is free for 2 hours at the nearby garage on 3rd and is a very short walk. The closer garage on Broadway is not free. You can make restaurant reservations on their website but it wasn't needed when we went.

The Chicken & Waffles, previously a staple with three wings, has switched to dark meat only (thighs) with zero substitutions. As someone who isn't a fan of dark meat, that was a major letdown. I opted for the Lemon Pancakes ($21), and while the presentation was stunning, the taste was underwhelming and the portion size was surprisingly small--my son's kids' meal actually had more food than mine. The Silver Lining: The service is still the highlight here. Our server, Jorge, was absolutely fantastic--attentive, kind, and professional. The entire staff was very nice, but unfortunately, the price point doesn't quite match the current portion sizes or flavor profile.

They had a somewhat smoky flavor and the outermost leaves were crunchy and a nice contrast to the soft inside of the artichokes. They were also served in a tangy sauce that complimented the vegetable well. My friend's favorite item was the macaroni and cheese.

We additionally ordered the gumbo which was also tasty but not as yummy as the other two dishes that we ordered. It is not a spicy dish if one is concerned about spice level. As for the ambiance of the restaurant, we enjoyed how the atmosphere felt casual and almost like you were sitting in somebody's house (the wallpaper and interior design is pretty) while still maintaining an elegant aesthetic design. If I was in the area, I would return to The Attic for dinner. My friend and I had a very welcoming and positive experience in terms of the service and food respectively at this establishment.

    We came on a weekday so getting a table quickly wasn't an issue. Points for the service. The…read morehostess and server were good. The restaurant has multiple parts. There is inside seating what looks like a converted house? There is outside seating at tables or at the bar. The menu was interesting which had a theme of shrimp; there was eggs Benedict with shrimp, but not an item to order a regular one without it? Sure maybe could have ordered and asked without shrimp but pay the same price? Pass. Ok when I called they mentioned they serve brunch until 3? 3:30 I can't remember. The server mentioned they serve the brunch all day? Either way when I got to ordering this month on the menu it highlighted the shrimp po boy. I tried to order and nope, out. How can you be out of the item highlighted as the special in the middle of the day? When the place is not packed? I tried to order the lobster roll and again, out. I was tempted to order their short rib poutine since in theory it sounded good, but at this point I tried something simple I would hope they have in the kitchen chicken and waffles. The plate came and it looks good. If you look at the picture at the bottom of the chicken you can see a dark something. As I lift my chicken I found a huge burnt piece of breading pictured next. On top of the chicken is green onion I think? Who eats that with chicken and waffles? If I am wrong, a garnish is totally unnecessary for this dish. The chicken was moist. There are spices in the flour breading I can see but hard to taste what it is. The waffle is a hard pass for me. The waffle was crispy which is good, but also thin and dry and I couldn't taste any sweetness until I put maple syrup on it. The syrup came out warm which was nice. It's clear watching the people at the bar this is a local hangout. The chicken and waffles were $19 which if I was in the bay I think it's about right, but I think a little high considering the level of food I got. Supposedly this place is packed specifically on Sundays. The server doesn't know why? I'm not interested to even try to come back for a second chance and just be told sold out of the menu.
