Nat's On Ventura

Great service and food
The seating reminds me how family restaurants used to feel
Nice hidden place

Honestly the best food and best customer service I have ever experienced! My partner and I have made this our regular Sunday breakfast place. There hasn't been one thing on the menu I have not enjoyed!

The coffee consistently tastes like ashtray (not an exaggeration, add all the milk and creamer available). The scrambles are hearty and satisfying. Everything is really delicious in the “south of the border” section of the menu. Good morning music, feels like home, feels like a real version of LA, staff is wonderful and responsive and friendly, menu is extensive and honestly everything I’ve had over the years is good but if you’re hoping for like, very high quality steak with your eggs it’s probably not going to happen.

So if you’re ok with terrible coffee that gets the job done it’s really the only thing you’ll be :/ about.

Been here before, just finally getting around to doing a review now.

Depending on the time of day, and the day itself, parking can be really easy, or a pain in the you-know-what.

The food is delicious! Also a great value since it's about $2 to $5 less than say the bigger chain places like a Denny's or IHOP.

It's definitely fresh, in some cases too Fresh. For instance, one person at our table ordered cantaloupe. They literally bring out 1 half cantaloupe. It was a task to try to cut it up, since it was so fresh and stiff. Side note, I really wish they would have just brought out a bowl of cut up cantaloupe.

The service is great. They'll come around once to take your drink order, then come around another time to take a food order. They bring you the food. There's a little bit of a lull when they come around again to see if you need anything else, and then one last visit for the check. You do pay at the cashier.

It's a great place, there's just a couple things I think they should work on trying to improve such as:

This place is Booth, all Booth, the whole booth, and nothing but the booth. No matter where you sit, half of the table is in a booth, if not the whole table is a booth.

The way it is set up now is that the table inside the booth is bolted to the floor. So you can't really adjust the table inside of the booth.

It would be nice if they had some kind of central area with freestanding tables, that they/You can move around, and adjust as necessary. A great example would be like if your a heavier person, or a smaller tiny person/child, or you just want to move the table 3 inches to the left for whatever reason.

Other than that, I give this place for stars for now. Let's see if there is a remodel in the works, probably not, to make the seating situation a little bit more variable oh, so that I can then bring this place up to five stars.

I enjoyed bacon, eggs and pancakes at Nat’s this morning. A basic breakfast but it was done well. The server was friendly and helpful, the coffee was good and always topped up and they even had fresh squeezed OJ!
