Lido Café and Bakery

This is a great hidden Gem in Carmichael! If you know, you know how great it is! The food is fresh and delicious. They serve chips and salsa with most meals, which is a little different. They are open for breakfast and lunch and have a great menu. It's usually busy, and parking can be an issue, but it's worth it. All of the customer service I have had there has been awesome!

First time here... Never heard of it until recommended by a coworker. Everything was tasty and well prepared. Also have a bakery counter that looked delicious. Definitely recommend.

Stop, and think again! This isn't your run of the mill, strip-mall breakfast joint. Lido Cafe and Bakery will surprise you with it's quiet combination of a shiny, clean facility serving quality food with friendly, attentive staff. In warmer weather, you can enjoy their quiet outdoor patio. (Furry friends allowed.)

Lido is slightly upscale, but small and friendly. It's been a Carmichael fixture for years and rightfully so. Open for breakfast and lunch, Lido is delightful! Give it a try soon... You won't be disappointed.

The restaurant was clean and busy, but not very loud. When you walk in the door, you grab a menu and seat yourself. Patio seating is available and dog friendly.

Waitress was attentive. She checked on me regularly and refilled my tea numerous times.

I had the California omelet (ham, bacon, mushrooms, onions). It was large, and took up half of my plate.
It was absolutely delicious. It came with country potatoes and toast.

Also ordered an extra pancake for $3.95. It was fluffy and delicious.

You can expect to spend about $20 per person here. My bill total: $23

Let's not kid ourselves. The wait is very long. Anyone that says otherwise is lying.
Now, being as busy as they are . The do serve the food within a decent wait time.
Half of the staff needs to smile more. Not so
The food is hot and nothing is over seasoned. The price is comparable to everywhere else. Good quality. I wish the had real fruit juice . They don't fill the plate with a bunch of carbs which is nice . Everything comes in at the same time we ordered 4 plates. I had the country fried steak, and eggs Benedict. My son had chicken and waffles which was chicken breast. He said it was great. His mom had eggs Benedict Florentine. They couldn't finish it cause they're light weights. Lol I do appreciate they cooked the asparagus garnish well too. They can get away with it and no one will know. But I tried it and it was cooked perfect.
