Ashley was amazing. the food smelled great and tasted even better. the staff was very polite and the atmosphere was very relaxing. The portions were very large the decorations and theme were very pleasing to the eye. the music was very exotic and calming at the same time. eating outside even in cold weather was great with the heat lamps they have we stayed warm.

Food is amazing! I ordered the red Chilaquiles with no egg and they were top notch! Highly recommend. The indoor seating is limited however they do have plenty of patio seating. Warning: You cannot go inside to sit down until you’ve placed your order. You will have to wait outdoors and there is only one register so make sure you’re ready to order when you get there.

The food is fantastically delicious. The chilaquiles, the pancakes, French toast, and burritos are very savory and delicious. The hot and cold brew cafe de olla is a must.

You know that this place is good if you see a line forming outside. We didn't wait too long to get seated. The employees here are so friendly. Food was so good. Highly recommend coming here especially after a backpacking in the near by mountains. 😊

First time trying cafe cultura waiting a bit to order but well worth it. Tried cafe Rompope , churro waffles , green chilaquiles plus orange tea everything was delicious!!! Would highly recommend this place to eat waiter was very nice and courteous.

Very pleased with our visit! We visited on a Tuesday morning and the place was pretty much empty. We order the chilaquiles burrito, a concha and the charchatta latte. This latte is a must; it is made with charcoal and a light pumpkin flavor, which is simply perfect! The service was pretty good and accurate. Yes, a little pricey, but we will probably come back.

Considering the factors in rating a restaurant - quality of food, friendly staff, ambiance and decor, cleanliness - this place fires on all cylinders. Great choices for breakfast and lunch (though I'd like to see what they could do with carnitas or birria). Indoor and outdoor seating (with a covered patio with heaters and ceiling fans 👍).

I'm not a local to Azusa but I will eat here again when I'm back. The coffee is good (hot chocolate, too!) and the food is awesome. Our party tried the chilaquiles and the breakfast burrito. WOW. Probably my favorite place for chilaquiles (it's my go to test for a new restaurant because there's a lot to gauge). Portions are great (I don't hate myself), and everything was cooked to perfection (*chef's kiss*). The ambiance is cool - I love Mexican culture and music so it was a great immersive meal. Service was quick and everyone was welcoming and nice.

The food is fantastic! Went here a good few times and oh my god I was in paradise. The vibe it gives off is so welcoming and fun! The staff is so sweet and very reasonable when it comes to communicating with the customers. One in particular is very sweet to talk to and adorable!

Location: Good, Parking: Across the street , Service: Mix (Order at the cashier, food is brought to the table), Presentation: Nice, Overall: I have tried this place twice and have enjoyed both meals. The restaurant was not very busy. You can eat inside or out. I will go back and try other meals. So for this place I give 4 Stars...

Super clean and cool place. Feel staff is very nice and seemed happy. The food is okay. The presentation is on point but they definitely have their own way of cooking. For example, the chilaquiles were just chips with salsa on top. Usually the tortilla chips are thicker & cooked with the salsa to have a nice soft texture. The churro pancakes and the mimosa were pretty good.

We liked this place for breakfast or brunch, they have a menu with plenty of choices, for food and drinks as well, we had Americano but it was a bit weak, maybe next time I will order a double. The chilaquiles rojos were good, my wife had a torta and it was delicious, we also ordered the chocolate abuelita pancakes, they were amazing. We like the cleanliness of the place and we especially enjoyed their music...

Cute lil place. Absolutely loved all the decor. The staff was friendly, professional, and fun! They only had 2 types of beer which was a bummer but I was still very satisfied with my michelada. The service was quick and the food was good. The torta was great, the steak was so soft and flavorful! The Chile quiles were good, not great! Had a good flavor I just expected more of a traditional instead of a white washed meal but again, still good. We will probably return and try more of the menu items. Overall a great place for a nice breakfast/brunch!

Cool little spot; unpretentious. Chilaquiles were good and so was the bfast burrito. They serve La Marca Prosecco , yay! Attentive staff…… Super clean! I’ll definitely be back asap. Happy holidays!

Café Cultura has a comfortable and inviting atmosphere, and the overall setting feels relaxed. The menu offers a good selection of food and drinks, and the space itself is pleasant and welcoming ☕🥞 I tried the horchata with oat milk along with the tres leches pancake. Both were enjoyable, though nothing particularly stood out to me. It’s definitely not a bad place, just not somewhere I personally felt eager to return to. Overall, it’s a solid spot with a nice ambiance and a calm café vibe 🌿😊

Ehh. The pricing is higher than we were expecting. Every breakfast meal is above $11 . A variety of breakfast awaits for you, such as pankakes, waffles, omelets, and burritos. However, we were starving to get a torta! We ordered a torta called green steak, which sounds delicious, right? The torta was a total whopping $15.55. It is something for a torta, so we better expect something big. We asked to go and waited 30 minutes for the torta. I already had bad feelings when they handed me the torta... It felt too light weight. Arrived to a spot to enjoy a torta, and it was below our expectations. Very small, it is pretty much a telera from a Hispanic supermarket. The meat was alright, same flavor as you would the torta yourself at home. Lots of tortilla chips and small pico de gallo sauce. In conclusion: small portions for the price. Would like to try the signature pancakes from here. Parking is next to the bank. It can get crowded. The atmosphere is excellent, colorful, and cheerful with those neon lights.

Not familiar with Mexican food, it's nice self service restaurant for relaxation.

I’ve come to the conclusion the optimistic side of me says café cultura has potential. My idea of having good chilaquiles in red sauce and a cafe de la olla ARE NOT IDEAL WHILE FIVE CEILING FANS ARE RUNNING WITH BOTH PATIO AND FRONT DOORS OPENED. KEEP IN MIND ITS A WAS A COOL 50 DEGREE MORNING EARLIER. A good restaurant should be proud to serve HOT CAFE DE OLLA AND WARM TO HOT CHILAQUILES NOT COLD FOOD. Keep in mind in the LA area Mexican Restaurants with HOT CAFE DE OLLA AND WARM TO HOT CHILAQUILES are a dime a dozen this place did not make the cut. Going forward I won’t be back any more. I’ve had the LAST COLD CHILAQUILES IN RED SAUCE WITH A COLD CAFE DE LA OLLA! I moved three times in the inside dining area looking for a better location could not get away from the constant circulation of cold air from the five fans and two open doors. When I spend my hard earned money and spend valuable time to patronize a small business It should be more considerate have higher standards BETTER DINING ENVIRONMENT for serving HOT FOOD THAT STAYS HOT LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO CONSUME IT. PLEASE…🤦🏽‍♂️💁🏽‍♂️

NOT true Mexican food is served here, the food served is inspired and Americanized. You pay first and then get your food served to you. I highly recommend not leaving a tip until you try the food first and experience their service. The Cafe de Olla was the worst I've ever tasted and they offered no refills. It was very bitter, acidic, needed more cinnamon and lacked Piloncillo. I ordered my eggs over medium and I recieved over hard. We ordered a side order of chicken and got 4 tiny slivers of chicken for $4.99. The potatoes had no flavor and were a mixture of uncooked, overcooked and soggy. Very unappetizing. Once we received our food we never got serviced again. There's a huge sign outside stating in Spanish and English how they pride themselves with Mexican culture and the quality of their food, sadly none of it is true. Azusa has alot more way better true Mexican Restaurants. Please spend your time and money at one of those and not at this place. I'm very upset to have spent my hard earned money at this poor excuse of a Mexican restaurant.
