Cici's Cafe

Great food for breakfast and lunch. I have to say that you might have to wait awhile for a table, so I would suggest getting there early because they get BUSY for breakfast. Bu it's worth the wait..

The stars had aligned, I had zero wait on a Friday morning.
Food was good, a bit pricey for breakfast.
$45 for 2. Service was great, time for food was great.
Be prepared for a wait of 30 mins or more just to sit.

Cool breakfast brunch cafe near the heart of Tarzana on Ventura Blvd. Amazing staff and service. Pretty solid home fries aka their scallop potatoes. I'm just not a fan of the no substitution rule being a veggie, but it doesn't apply to every item. Not sure if they have any gluten free, vegan or other styles of pancakes and waffles, yet, but it enjoy swinging by... You should too.

The variety of pancakes is astounding. Want to understand what choice paralysis is like? Visit here.

I definitely recommend looking through the menu before you go so you can at least get an idea of what it's like and ever so slightly narrow your choice

This place almost always has a wait so get ready for that.

Overall, it's a great place to go for breakfast/brunch

Menu was HUGE. Thirty pages of decisions. Very creative drinks and food. You HAVE to try the souffle pancakes. We had the Strawberry cream cheese. I thought it would be really overly sweet. I don't like things too sweet. They had fresh strawberries with a bit of syrup, cream cheese whipped cream, and some chopped almonds sitting on two clouds of the fluffiest, lightest, melt in your mouth pancakes. AMAZING! Service was very good as well. Highly recommend.
