The Lemon Leaf Cafe

My friend and I enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Lemon Leaf cafe in charming downtown Lancaster in California’s Antelope Valley. She loved her Wedge salad with chopped tomatoes, red onion, applewood smoked bacon, Gorgonzola cheese, and a tasty house made creamy vinaigrette dressing. I also loved my turkey cranberry Cobb with its tomatoes, hard boiled egg, Gorgonzola cheese, pecans, and those yummy applewood smoked bacon pieces. The light dressing was perfect! If this review makes you hungry, hurry over to the Lemon Leaf Cafe.

The food selection and variety is great. Everything I've had has been very well prepared and tastes great. The atmosphere and location are very enjoyable as well.

Lemon Leaf is one of our favorite places in the AV. Their grilled prosciutto pesto pizza is easily one of the best pizzas I have had. The crust is thin and crispy and the prosciutto is crunchy and delicious. The restaurant is quaint and the staff is friendly.

I love their food. Whether I'm sitting in the restaurant or grabbing it to go, their food is always fresh and delicious. My favorite is their clam chowder on Friday's and like all their dishes, it's made from scratch. The deserts are out this world amazing too!

The Lemon Leaf cafe, in Lancaster, is nice. The menu is limited. Here you place your order at the counter and a server brings your food to the table. I like this type of set up when I'm meeting someone and we are paying separately. It takes the awkwardness out of receiving the check. I ordered the soup of the day. It was some sort of bean soup. I can't remember the name or what my friend ordered. That is how unmemorable and unexciting the menu is at this cafe. The food was okay. Nothing special, at all. The decor was mediocre as well. The service was on the left side of okay, too. My companion ordered a cake to go and even though our plates were cleared and it was obvious we we had concluded our meal, the server never asked if she was ready for her to-go dessert. She had to go fetch it herself. Not a big deal but, it doesn't make for superior customer service. I didn't use the bathroom but, apparently a key is required. I will give them another try. It is in the only interesting area of Lancaster. It is on Lancaster Blvd. Lancaster Blvd is our City's attempt at an attractive meeting area with quaint shops like antique stores, a candy store, a few restaurants, Theaters, museum, etc..... but, the energy does not compare to places like The Orange Circle or Downtown Long Beach. The stores are basic and not special. However, we have nowhere else around the Antelope Valley. So. I will go back, when meeting friends.
