Cafe Bliss

Really good breakfast place and brunch. Food has flavors and perfect size for a hungry stomach.

Fantastic place for brunch, my wife and I love to go here.

I was there visiting from Orange county. Meeting with my friends. We were there for a breakfast. I ordered pancakes which were not expensive and very big and especially very delicious. I wish there was another Cafe Bliss close to me. Service was also great.

Delicious café in Belmont. My friend and I had coffee and tea in the hummus plate. Lots of delicious and healthy choices. You can tell it’s an owner operator because the service and food were so good.

I love this place. One day I showed up 10 min after their kitchen was closed, extremely hungry. There were no other places nearby where I would eat, and realizing that I couldn’t eat in Cafe Bliss was a disaster, I was literally starving. You know what - they still made me lunch. And it wasn’t just a sandwich, it was Benedicts which did require some cooking. I also love their burgers. I’m on Keto, so I’m asking to give me more lettuce instead of a bun, and that works. For Benedicts, I just ask for additional cheese instead of English muffins and it’s super yummy. These people are fast, they are good cooks and they are incredibly friendly. My chiropractor is right around the corner, so I’m visiting them pretty often. I’m not even trying other nearby places. :)

Took a friend there today and this place for breakfast is great, the staff is very friendly, the coffee is like what you would have if you where home. I had there corn beef hash and eggs oh so good not can corn beef neither, freshly cut in bites size, oh soo good.

Really good place for brunch. The smoke salmon and avocado was amazing. Friendly staff. Dog friendly with outside sitting. Prices are reasonable. Good quality of food..

What an absolute gem! We went on a Tuesday morning so it was nice and quiet but I can imagine this place getting packed! It's so delicious and has a great atmosphere. There's a huge menu and great coffee variety! We will definitely be coming back!

Great family run breakfast place. The food is good. The prices are reasonable. An the service is always great. It's the type of place where they remember your name and order after just a few visits. It can get a little crowded on Sunday mornings, but there's rarely a long wait. We enjoy sitting outside when the weather is nice.

Superb breakfast. Used to live up the road about 20 years ago and haven’t been in before. Eggs Benedict were perfect. Good coffee. Toast was actually placed in the toaster rather than being threatened with it like many places serving warm bread trying to pass for toast. I eat a lot of breakfasts out and am quite picky with my eggs. These were cooked perfectly. Solid whites and soft yolk, a toast dipper’s dream. Recommended.

Nice breakfast spot. Staff are very nice and both food and service are prompt. Can get a little loud when the crowds come in.

Lovely local cafe with a great variety of choices! We had salmon benedict, florentine crepe and butternut squash soup, and they are all very tasty. Interior is very clean and cozy.

Very Delicious. I Had the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict👍👍👍👍👍 and Coffee also Great. My Waitress Was Very Friendly. The restaurant is Very Clean👍👍👍👍👍

Had the Bliss French Toast, which is 2 slices of what appear to be French Bread (but not as tough, see photo) with a layer of Nutella sandwiched between them. Side 'garnish' of mixed fruit was quite delightful before working on the French Toast itself. Not knowing whether to seat myself or be seated, I walked up to the register to find out. From that point forward, I someone was always available to service any and every need. Service was quite adequate, food was delicious, (except the outside of the bread was a little tougher than expected for French Toast,) and at 9:30a Sunday morning, plenty of seats available for the taking. 4.8 Stars (.2 for the bread). Happy to return.

Small mom and pop neighborhood restaurant. The family owners are friendly and accommodating. Food comes hot off the grill. Can't go wrong with their omelettes or wraps.

This place is truly an amazing place to have a good lunch. The waitress who served me my food was super kind and In general there was great customer service done by restaurant staff, I ordered their burger with fries which was very good, I ceartinly hope to come back in the future

Cherry wood bacon cheese burger was awesome. Ice tea fresh and tasty.

Delicious oatmeal. Spectacular eggs benedict and the best service in San Carlos. I can't recommend this place enough our family loves it

We appreciate fast & respectful service! Best place for brunch in the area!

Cute local breakfast place!

A very cozy, clean, friendly place to eat! We had a great breakfast there. The service was efficient and courteous, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was artsy and relaxed. We will definitely be coming back!

Our server was amazing, the coffee was great, and the chicken sandwich was the best I ever had! Cant beat the great price either!

The location is in a small strip mall and you’d miss it if you didn’t know it was there. We went, because we were told how good the food was and we weren’t disappointed. We all had something different and no one gave their food less than a 10 of 10. We had great, friendly service and not one thing we’d recommend they change.

I love this cafe 🫶 The servers go beyond and above at this establishment. So kind and attentive with customers and even recognizing regulars! The veggie crepe was one of the best crepes I’ve ever had and the potatoes are delicious. Would definitely come again!

My friend and I enjoyed delicious Eggs Benedict, fresh mixed fruit , fresh orange juice, and coffee. It was absolutely lovely food, and the server gave us time to chit-chat. It was very quiet.

It's a good, local place to get tasty breakfast and lunch. The service is good, prices reasonable for the area, and portions are just right. Nothing too fancy and nothing too greasy spoon.

Wow.....excellent breakfast here. Fast service. You know this place is packed Friday - Sunday. 4.8 stars. Really really good

Good coffee, nice big chunks of corned beef, tasty hollandaise sauce. Good potatoes. Ask for butter with toast if u want it

They didn't quite get our order right the first time so has to wait on them to finish the burger they missed.

This small cafe, with just one waitress and one coo delivers good quality food. As with many restaurants today, you must be patient with the waitress. She was very busy but efficient. There were six of us for lunch and we put our drink orders in. Considering the number of customers, I thought the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. The food was tasty and filling. I recommend this Cafe in Belmont just off Ralston Ave at Alameda de Las Pulgas.

Nice place to have some breakfast/ lunch! Option of outdoor and indoor dining! Generally food is good, nice prices. I am curious to try the soup options also, that will be my next option when I come back. A nice local cafe!

Came here for lunch on a Sunday and it wasn’t busy. They were a little understaffed so service was slow but we didn’t really mind. Sat outside and enjoyed a good meal and coffee.

Food was mid. I was excited for the Mac and cheese but was disappointed.

Was expecting better considering the rating. Guess you gotta hit and miss on menu selections before finding out what gives this place a 4.6 on 5 rating (30 October, 2020) Anyhow, if you should come here i’d strongly recommend the creamy chicken crepe; they use their own house recipe to make a very nice wine wine sauce to accompany the meal. I hated the macaroni and cheese; had grated cheese over the top but underneath the rest just tasted super bland, like sauceless macaroni; so don’t say you weren’t warned. Banana crepe is ok. Service is alright though the food arrived pretty slowly. My partner had the eggs florentine which to me was nothing extra ordinary. The crepe actually tasted a bit dry until my partner ordered a side of hollandaise sauce for 2$ which improved the overall texture. Giving this restaurant a 3 because i don’t think this restaurant deserves a 4.6 rating. I was very disappointed with the macaroni; i wish they would’ve canceled the order. Both my partner and i did not like the taste of the macaroni. I should mention that i found the coffee quite decent. Hope this review helps you out.

Service was quick...minded I came on a rainy day, was only about 2-3 people at 11am. Food mediocre. Crepe was too thick and a bit over cooked. Soup didn't have much flavor at all. Potatoes were sitting on the top edge of the counter...was a bit concerned since they didn't seem covered. Tasted okay (hope not to be sick from them)

Only reason for a 2-star rating: the service on the Sunday afternoon we visited was quite tardy and shambolic. The food(except the pancake) tasted great. We ordered an omelette, and a pancake along with coffee. We were seated outside and had to wait for a good 20-25 minutes before someone came and took our order. And then we had to wait for quite sometime for our order to arrive. We asked for more coffee and they served us coffee that wasn’t warm at all. Even though they served us hot coffee later, it left a bad taste. The pancake tasted stale and we couldn’t even finish eating half of it. The omelette and potatoes tasted great. They’ve seating both inside and outside. Overall I’d recommend this place, but keep in mind their service which can be quite messed up on some days.

There is a lot to say….it was really crowded on Saturday brunch time, around 10am-11am. Many people, including us, waited for 20mins to get a table, to make an order, wait another 30mins, and wait over 40mns to get the food served. Over 1hs wait until you get your food on the weekend brunch…🥲 The food looks very poor and shouldn’t be worth $30 each, including tax & tips. I saw many people complaining to the staff about the long waits as well. I'm not sure why they got those higher stars and compliments here. What we missed? Did we visit at the wrong time? And maybe the chief was absent from the day?

waited 15 minutes for someone to get our order but nobody came and we left lol. but there is a good thing after read the reviews on here we did not wait 20 mins to get just seated.

Can't say anything about the food cause we left after waiting 15mins to be attended to. Waited 15mins and not even water nor utensils were placed on our table.

We ordered coffee it took approximately 30 min even without line and not busy time. Service missed our preference. Very upset that near our house we have breakfast place with this kind of service.
