I had a wonderful coffee and meal here. Ordered a cold brew with oat milk. Coffee was rich, great taste. Tried their waffle and salmon which was a delight. Sweet, but made me happy to eat it. Salmon cooked perfectly, crusty on the outside, flaky on the inside. Made to order when I came in.

I just paid $20 for 3 salmon street tacos and sweet potato fries. See picture. Never, ever again. Not sure how much salmon was served but it wasn’t a lot. However, more importantly, the salmon was severely overcooked. Dry and tasteless. Very disappointing. $16, for 3 small tacos, is the same price for the salmon burger. I asked the order taker if the amount of salmon in the tacos was the same amount used in the burger, and she couldn’t assure me that it was the same amount. She was unfazed by my concern. Eventually, a manager appeared. She also seem unfazed and uncaring. She told me that the amount of salmon used for the burger was the same as the tacos–4 ounces. Given how little salmon was actually in my tacos, I find her answer hard to believe. Bottom line is that the tacos were overcooked, over priced amd underwhelming. If I am going to spend $20 on lunch, I am confident that better price/value propositions exist. This was my second time patronizing KafeLA. However, it will probably be my last. It’s not the $20 price point that bothers me. Rather it was that the food wasn’t worth it, IMHO.

They cool with the service but the food is trifling. I ordered a salmon Cobb salad it had mango,tomato,blue cheese,egg,bacon and the smallest piece of salmon for $8 talking about its 6oz. Not only was it missing ingredients it tasted horrible a salad. No seasoning on salmon. Then the Melrose drive pasta was dry. The protein which was very dry and overcooked was chicken which I thought it came with shrimp. The manager was nice but you could tell she had an attitude. After I waited damn near an hour for my food nobody asked if I wanted water offered me nothing then the manager say do you want a cookie because she don’t give refunds I said no a drink will be cool. I got the peace tea and she gave me unsweetened tea with no peach taste. After the cashier in the front told me they do have sweet tea but have to make some the manager comes out and say we make unsweetened tea and add simple syrup which made no sense. She did make my shrimp on side but I was already over it. So no refund and food was not giving nothing. No taste at all. Overcooked and just horrible. I mean not to mention the smoothie but that’s a whole nother story. THUMBS DOWN. All that money and I’m still HUNGRY!!

Very disappointed! I drove from the west side to support a black owned business mid week. 2 of 3 items I wanted was price wrong but you are a newer business with no corrections on the menu. My order was $15 but my card was ran for $17. I get the salad after waiting 25mins (which was crazy) and the spinach & salad is barely covering this small box. I left a message for the manager to call me. Gave 48hrs because business can get busy and NEVER a call back. This is unacceptable and disappointing. My time gas and money is important to support and I couldn’t even get a call back.

The food smelled and looked delicious. Unfortunately, the waffle (I ordered the salmon & waffle) was dry and crunchy as if it had been sitting under a heat lamp all day. I expected the salmon to be bigger than it was, based on the pricing. Although the sizing of the salmon was smaller than expected, it was still good. The fruit (strawberries and blueberries) that came with it were good. I also ordered the Good Morning LA smoothie and everything in it was good except the yogurt. It ruined the smoothie for me. The polish boy was lacking sauce on the polish boys and fries. The OG milkshake was okay, but it was lacking banana flavor.

Lovely cafe and such a lovely, friendly owner who wants to get to know each customer and has a lot of regulars! The smoothies were tasty and refreshing. I got totchos (tater tot nachos) and my friend had a BLT. Everything was great and I am eager to try other menu items!! They have a rewards card too! It’s a small space so you’ll likely have to take your food to-go. And that’s all good because I had leftovers!
