Garden Cafe (of Sherman Oaks)

The perfect brunch spot! I went with a few friends, and we all absolutely loved our dishes. I tried the Short Rib Eggs Benedict and The Golden Cowboy—let’s just say the short rib is to die for! Every bite was packed with flavor. The atmosphere was just as amazing—calm, spacious, and perfect for a relaxed brunch. We sat on the patio and had such a great time catching up over delicious food. The only downside was parking—it was a bit difficult since the lot is small and was already full on a Saturday morning. But honestly, the food and experience were well worth it! Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great brunch, great vibes, and a great experience! Can’t wait to come back. ☕

My friend enjoyed a big plate of pasta and garlic bread with her tomato soup as well. We shared a $5 chocolate chip cookie, with the value and I would say it was a 7/10 for me. There is no table service other than bringing you your items, they ask for tip at payment which is not something I appreciate.

I really wanted to like this place but was so disappointed with the food. Took my daughter in law out for lunch, she chose the place. We were told to order at the counter but noticed others were given menus with food descriptions unlike the “board” On the wall. Ordered cob salad the green sandwich and tomato basil soup. The soup tasted like pizza sauce not soup, The salad only had blue cheese, what I later identified as bacon, a few tomato pieces and hard boiled egg. The worse salad I’ve ever ordered in a restaurant! The “bacon” was in chunks, not fresh obviously cheap store bought. The clumps couldn’t even be crumbled and bounced on the table, absolutely terrible salad couldn’t eat it or the soup. The unsweetened tea was ok as was the rose lemonade. Don’t waste your money here! Reviewed your response and will never return! Will tell all my reviewers how terrible your food is!

This place is the perfect brunch spot and place to work! The atmosphere is beautiful with the flowers and outdoor patio! Enjoy their 3 mimosas for $15 with any meal you get! I love the Truffle Fries!!

The food was amazing. The rose tea was so delicious. I had the avocado toast and it was sooo good and most important I was able to bring my puppy along.

I found this café through a Google search, and the reviews looked promising, so decided to give it a try. There’s a small parking area out front, which is free. The place itself is super cute with the perfect cosy vibe, almost like a little Parisian café. I wanted to try something different and went for the Chilaquiles, and they were absolutely amazing. The flavours were a 10/10, and the portion was huge. My boyfriend had the breakfast burrito and really enjoyed his too. The staff were so friendly, which made the experience even better. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in LA, and I highly recommend this place to anyone thinking about visiting!

An unassuming restaurant in Sherman Oaks. Quiet, chill, and rustic. It's a great place to bring your dog. On the night we went, there was a small band playing and singing. Some songs were better than others, but it added ambiance. It seemed like a lot of people were regulars. The biggest downside was that it took over half an hour for our two dishes to be served. (Neither should have been complicated, a veggie burger and another sandwich.) The sweet potato fries were very good. The table next to ours wasn't cleaned the entire time we sat there.

Went there for a late lunch, and the food did not disappoint. We ordered the spicy short rib grilled cheese, the mac n chees with bacon, and the pesto chicken quesadia. Topped that off with their red velvet cookie made with a strawberry jelly, arguably the best cookie I've ever had. Washed it down with a rose tea that was not too sweet but had a refreshing rosy flavor. Maybe not your cup of tea, but that day it certainly was mine. No pun intended. The ambiance was beautiful it felt like you were in another part of the world with its outside dining area covered over head with vegetation. If you are in the Sherman Oaks area or in LA, for that matter. I would recommend this place to you all. The only reason I don't give them 5 stars across the board is because once you reach the peak, it's nothing but downhill from there, and they are certainly not a downhill trajectory. Great spot, fantastic food.
