What a great place!! Great food and service! Had a turkey club and chocolate shake. Total yum!!
Food was just as great as the service and atmosphere! If you enjoy a retro breakfast bar, then this is the place for you! A must go to for brunch or breakfast.
Excellent service, 25 minute wait but it went fast, delicious food 😋 I highly recommend this diner. I ordered the Challah French toast with berries and hash browns. I had to take half of it in a box. It was a large portion.
Whether you are a local or just visiting, this old school diner is a must visit. Yes, its diner food, but the experience and ambiance create the feeling that one can only feel in Hollywood. The prices are fair, and the food is pretty damn good too. Ive been here both for breakfast and dinner, and the dinner vibes with the low lighting and decor make you realize there is only one Cafe 101. Come here alone, with friends, or on a date. No matter what the vibes, it'll always be a good one.
Absolutely adorable! I was watching an episode of Gilmore girls and then saw this in a movie as well. I had to see it in person! I wish there were more places with this charm and decor. Food was great! Husband wished sweet potato fries weren't mixed with regular fries. Great flavor on the burgers! Would come again if in the area.
Nice diner at the Best Western Hollywood Hills. Breakfast is great and the blackened catfish sandwich with fries was amazing. Friendly service from the staff and fast delivery of food to the table makes this a great stop in Hollywood. I could swear I have seen this place used in a movie or two.
My favorite diner in LA. When you walk in, you immediately feel like you've been transported back in time. From the large brown leather booths, to the chocolate you can buy at the counter, I love it all. The food is excellent, and the menu is modern. They even offer vegan / vegetarian options that are really delicious! The price is is very affordable considering it's in Hollywood.
Always enjoy coming here. I know it's not an original, vintage dinner but they did a great job recreating the look and feel of the type of coffee shop I always enjoyed frequenting as a kid be it the long gone Norms that used to be at Sunset and Vermont or any of the Ships locations.
The food is good and the service is very friendly. There's not a lot of parking so it's best to walk, take public transit or some other means to get there. It can get very crowded, especially later in the mornings on the weekend, but it's definitely worth the wait.
This rating is purely on service. My waitress was very sweet and kept saying nice things to me. Was working very hard and kept a smile on her face even though there was one tough customer. I didn’t get her name however she was the one with the tattooed arms and kinda looked like classic Wonder Woman. 😍 Now the good was something else. I had very high hopes for the waffle(s) I came for. The buttermilk waffle once again was a formed pancake made with pancake batter. Very spongy and didn’t taste good. The waffle brownie was not brownie at all. Instead was a formed cake made with regular cake mix. What was more disappointing is I had to climb a large hill on foot to get here. The eggs were good however. Now about that the so called “omelet” is just a egg patty and u have to pay extra for all the toppings. Every other breakfast place I goto the omelet is what you get with all the fixings. Then again the hash browns was something new and great also. So this is a bit of a mixed review.
Speedy service with a smile! Typical dinner food with breakfast served all day. My glass was always full here and the sourdough is standard for toast. Locked bathrooms where am interesting surprise.
first breakfast in LA, was not at all disappointed. the staff is great and the food even more. we had the French toast and the waffle and they were AMAZING. BE BACK FOR SURE!!!
My favourite diner in the LA area so far. I got the Cajun fish and eggs and I was very impressed. Its enough to fill you up and it tastes great!
The coffee isn’t bad either.
Would recommend for anyone to come here for a good breakfast before heading off on your LA adventures
