Nano Cafe

You will be greeted by friendly staff to seat you indoors or on their outdoor patio. We looked for a dog-friendly breakfast place since our dog was with us. We all enjoyed our breakfast selections on the patio and would like to return and maybe try their lunch menu next time.

1. It’s the original Nano Cafe. Its not the same as the one on Duarte Ave, Monrovia. 2. Delicious! They made simple food with a “Wow”! 3. Will definitely keep going back for simple yet delicious food.

Awesome eggs Benedict with salmon 👍👍👍😄😍 Their service is great. They refill my coffee six times. Unbelievable 😄 Highly recommended. 👍

Food and service is great! Nice to sit outside!

This was my first visit to Nano, but it will not be my last, for sure. The food was fantastic, and the service even better. Helpful and friendly staff make this a 5 star location.

Love Nano's in Sierra Madre! They have a great outdoor area and all of the food on the menu is yummy! Portions are large so you may want to share. Patio dining is dog friendly. The server will bring a bowl of water. If you go for breakfast or lunch be sure to pop in to Poppy's Bakery next door and grab a cookie or slice of pie. They offer baked breads and prepared entries. Prices are a bit high, but worth every penny.

They took forever to bring the food for one of the 4 in our party so that sucked. But the food was really good!

Delicious - go to spot. Scrumptious (I never use this word, but it perfectly describes this café). Fresh food. Good attentive service.

My friend and I come here periodically on Mondays. We love it, both the service and the food. It’s a comfortable setting, not too loud, and our servers and waitresses are always helpful. Claudia is the best.

Steak and eggs, tender and tasty! Bloody Mary was on point and at excellent price! My server was very attentive and my cup of coffee was never empty! Definitely a great breakfast spot, with which I'll be visiting again in the near future!

A local family owned restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining for breakfast lunch or dinner. The service was pretty quick and the food was good. Great place to visit and enjoy a meal. They also have a bar area as well. And, occasionally they host various entertainment events.

If you like going to Mama Hotspots, this is your stop. The food was great. They have indoor dining and outdoor seating.

Tastes 5 stars, service 5 stars, atmosphere 6 stars. This place is awesome. I came here for brunch after a morning hike in September. Perfect place for some Smoke Salmon Benedict and breakfast. You should definitely get the fresh squeezed orange juice. So refreshing! Plenty of outdoor seating and super fast service! Very peaceful and quite in the morning.

As always Nano is the best. They give plenty of food. I had the mushroom omelet. We have been coming here for many years.

Alright let’s go! It was a Saturday morning and I needed someplace to take my mother who drove all the way over from the inland empire. I hadn’t been here before so I decided to give it a shot. It all started with a chocolate milk. It was good. Decent chocolate to milk ratio but I wish the glass was bigger. Then I wanted to get the cinnamon roll but I was worried it would be a dried out piece of garbage, so I asked the waitress and she assured me it would not be, but that if it was she would take it off my bill. A money back guarantee, I dig it, so I ordered that. It was probably the best non home made cinnamon roll I’ve had in years, 5 stars. It was gooey all the way through and plenty of glaze. Then I saw on the menu this thing called a monte cristo. Do you know about this!? It’s a melty ham and cheese sandwich made with French toast as the bread. As a connoisseur of breakfast food for the better part of four decades, it blew my mind that I was just now, in this moment learning what a Monte Cristo was. Amazing. My mom got the crepes and we did a little swopy-swop so I got to have one of her crepes in exchange for half my monte cristo. Crepes were your normal crepes. Hard to screw that up. Great experience. Would definitely go back, although it was not cheap!

We used to good to Nano Cafe located in Monrovia but the ownership had change. These are the same owners from there with the same servers. It’s good to see people you recognize and they recognize you. The food is good and the portions are plenty. Menu hasn’t changed and they offer daily specials. I would recommend you stop by and give them a try when you’re in the neighborhood. Also they open at 7am.

Amazing service and scrumptious food! We sat outside and the view never fails, we just adore the mountains right outside. I got the pancake combo with the banana and roasted pecans just WOW! The pancakes didn't even need syrup. I love it here 🤍

I love the surrounding mountain view that completes the morning with delicious breakfast and very friendly employees. Very highly recommended for more visits!!!!!🥰

First time customer and I must say will most definitely will be returning! We had an excellent lunch with mom! Food was delicious and prompt. Service was friendly and attentive. Really a delightful experience.

We enjoyed the outdoor patio. It was 11am so some ordered breakfast and I ordered lunch. We were all pleased with our selections and the staff was friendly and attentive. Patio is dog-friendly.

Fantastic meal with tasty food. Highly recommend stopping by and enjoying a dining experience in this warm down home environment.

Patty melt with coffee. Good Waffle and chicken over cooked. Refill of coffee slow. Restaurant clean and neat. Not busy on my visit.

Interestingly, I liked the strawberry pancakes I got, but they were a bit too sweet for me. Hash browns were overcooked. Eggs okay. They use good sausage links here. I'm willing to give them another try in the future.

Good food

I ordered the salmon with rice pilaf and steamed veggies. The salmon is kinda salty and the steamed carrot is too hard

We ordered the Chicken Marsala and the Orange Roughy. Food was good and service was wonderful. Special thanks to our server Wayne.

Nice restaurant, great service, decent food, filthy bathroom!

Parking lot is super hidden but has a good amount of spots available. There is PLENTY of seating outside and inside. It is a cute place with lots to choose from on the menu!! Pricing is a little above average depending on what you order. I wanted both savory and sweet so I ordered a cinnamon roll and hash browns. They were both delicious!! I have been craving a cinnamon roll for awhile and it did not disappoint! It was fluffy, soft, warmed up, and the frosting was good!!! The hash browns were perfectly crisp!! The employee was helpful and nearby whenever I needed something. She got me hot sauce and ketchup right away when I asked. Would come back here cause their food is so good! Just gave one less star cause I wish it was slightly more affordable.

Solid breakfast to start the day here. Now the restaurant is open for outdoor dining. This has been the neighborhood’s favorite cafe. The foods are good and the portions are big. We came this morning for breakfast after taking our dog to the vet in the neighborhood. The breakfast menu is pretty comprehensive which includes most of the American classics. We went for their egg Benedict and waffle combo. Both dishes were well done. The taste of the egg Benedict was excellent and the waffle was average. Service was good and our waitress was very friendly and responsive. She constantly came out to ask if needed anything else. Good Covid measures are taken here. All staffs wear masks and face shields. They sanitize the tables between customers. Parking is in the back of the restaurant but no front entrance now. You have go in from the back street.

Arrived and their place was packed. Parking may be a bit hard since I didn’t see a private lot or if there was. It was packed already. Walked in and was seated within 5 minutes. Lots of people going in and out. The interior and exterior were all packed. Got the menu and there were a lot of selections. Cinnamon French toast: Must get! So delicious! Country skillet: would recommend if you don’t want bread! It’s pretty good on its own and salty enough. Pancakes: it was a bit too dry for me so I had to add a lot of syrup. Smoked salmon with hash brown: the salmon was cooked which made me confused but it was still good. The server was super busy and forgot a few items but once we notified him, the food came within minutes. He was so nice! Highly recommend this spot for brunch or lunch!

Great diner with great food. We ordered many dishes from the breakfast menu as well as sandwiches and salads. Everything was excellent. My only complaint is that one person at my table had to wait unusually long to get their food. It’s always awkward and uncomfortable when one person doesn’t have their food. Other than that, an enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.

Nano Cafe in LA offers delicious food that truly hits the spot. However, my experience was somewhat marred by a few issues. The coffee, though flavorful, could have been served hotter. The service was friendly, but a bit slow, and I felt that the staff could have been more attentive to the customers. With a few tweaks, Nano Cafe could easily elevate the dining experience to match the quality of their dishes.

They serve typical American food and they do it right. I ordered the pork chops and it tasted good. Some might feel it was a little dry but it was perfect for me. My server would come periodically to make sure if I needed anything. This place has been around for some time so it shows sign of wear and tears but overall fine. I love to come back again.

Please do not order the Monte Cristo sandwich if you're an aficionado. Very disappointing. However, the chocolate mousse dessert... so yummy & decadent! ♡♡ Wonderful musical entertainment, very good songs, impressive singing and guitar, thumbs up. ♡♡

The food is decent. They have a very good selection to choose from, but I always get breakfast. Service is ok because they try to be accommodating while seemingly understaffed. The bad part is that the inside is dated and does not smell very nice. Another thing is the prices. It is so much more than before. I know the cost of everything went up and is is past down to us. I am a little sticker shocked. Good thing is their outside dining. There you can relax and they are pet friendly.

I had the breakfast special. The sausage was almost flavorless. The Biscuits were dense, not light and fluffy and the gravy was boring. This was my first time but I'm going to give it another shot for lunch because my cousins like this place.

We came here on a Saturday mid-afternoon. The place was maybe 2/3 full. You could hear the music from the parking lot and it was quite loud inside. Servers weren't unfriendly, but the service was disjointed and chaotic. Eggs were lukewarm to cold. Not a relaxing experience and the food didn't make up for it.

This is a high priced diner with lousy service, and lousy food. Go to Dennys, save your money!

Today my sister and our 3 granddaughters decided to have lunch at the Nano Cafe based on the reviews we read. Well I can’t review the food because we left after being ignored for 1/2 hour. When my sister tried to flag down the waitress she deliberately ignored her. Then we saw another customer ask her if she was their waitress and she rudely told her I don’t know where your waitress is. After we saw that we walked out and as we were walking out a waitress finally talked to us and I told her we were leaving and why. She then proceeded to explain that two waitresses left early. I don’t mind waiting, if someone had just acknowledged us and explained the situation. I will never come back and I will tell everyone I know to avoid Nano Cafe.

Always come here and Recommend this place to a lot of friends and family. But I'm so disappointed. My family came from where I from They don't speak English, when we enter the Restaurant a server saw us and give us a bad face Didn't say good morning or nothing My grandpa got a table and I told him that we needed to be seated so we waited for a while. When the server comes he stared to ask For something Good in the menu (in spanish) The server give him a dirty face, like I don't speak Spanish But she does. She took our order, I asked for a recommendation and she said that the corizo and eggs And rice and beans were good and the benedicts and hash brow, we got that . When my food arrives It was TERRIBLE Looked like they put the rice and beans in the microwave And the big pieces of tomato and green pepper in my eggs. The hash-brow burned WHAT A MEDIOCRE BREAKFAST AND A SERVICE. When I asked another server (she have a messy hair) That I didn't like my food and I needed help She didn't answer asked her for the second time And she rudely responded "I'm not your server, you should look for your server and she will help you" So waited for the server. But she never came back Ask a Latino gentlemen and ask for a refill And told him to change my plate, he was like We can't take out that from the check We can give you something else but you need to pay for both anyways. I WAS SO MAD I felt like they were been racist. Saw that they were serving FABULOUS BREAKFAST everywhere but to us. I been here a lot of times and this is the worst experience. We ARE PAYING we are not asking for anything free We are costumers like everybody else. I am so sad Because we didn't receive what I Recommend to my family. They were here for vacations And left with a bitter taste from this place.
