5 /5 A A: One of the more memorable brunch’s we had visiting LA. Would recommend the Turkish breakfast for a well rounded breakfast. Street parking only. Does get pretty busy!

5 /5 Vincent Hsu: Blue Daisy Café offers an exceptional brunch experience in the heart of downtown Santa Monica. Its convenient location makes it an easy walk from my new place, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite local finds. The ambiance is bright, relaxed, and welcoming, with plenty of outdoor seating ideal for people watching and enjoying the coastal air. The setting perfectly captures the laid-back yet vibrant feel of Santa Monica — a space where you can linger over coffee or have an unhurried brunch with friends. The Nutty Banana Pancake is a standout dish — light, fluffy, and full of rich, nutty flavor balanced by just the right amount of sweetness. The Pistachio Latte with whipped cold foam is another highlight, offering a smooth and aromatic flavor profile with a luxurious creamy texture. For something savory, the Breakfast Burrito is hearty and satisfying, especially when paired with the perfectly seasoned and crispy fries on the side. The service was exceptional throughout — friendly, attentive, and professional without ever feeling rushed. Every interaction felt genuine, and the staff went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. In all, Blue Daisy Café captures everything you’d want in a Santa Monica brunch spot: great food, excellent service, and a relaxed yet lively atmosphere. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s a must-visit destination for a truly enjoyable brunch experience.

5 /5 Dr.Johnson Ozgur: What an incredible gem in the heart of Santa Monica! I had breakfast at Blue Daisy, and it turned out to be one of the best brunch experiences I’ve had in a long time. The place has such a welcoming and cozy vibe — bright, stylish, and filled with that easygoing California energy that instantly puts you in a good mood. I ordered the Turkish Eggs with Sujuk, and honestly, they were absolutely amazing. Perfectly poached eggs served over creamy yogurt with just the right touch of spice — the flavors were authentic, comforting, and beautifully balanced. The Sujuk (Turkish sausage) added a delicious smoky and slightly spicy flavor that made every bite irresistible. It tasted homemade, like something you’d find at a boutique café in Istanbul, but with a California twist. The presentation was elegant, and you could tell there was real attention to detail in how it was prepared and plated. The staff were fantastic — warm, efficient, and attentive without ever rushing you. Even though the restaurant was busy, they took the time to make sure everything was perfect. They offered great recommendations and served everything with genuine smiles, which made the whole experience even better. The coffee was excellent too — rich, smooth, and freshly brewed. It paired perfectly with the Turkish Eggs, rounding out the meal beautifully. And the overall atmosphere — sunny morning light, friendly chatter, and the smell of great food in the air — made it the kind of place you don’t want to leave. If you’re looking for a place that combines authentic flavors, quality ingredients, and a warm, laid-back atmosphere, Blue Daisy is the spot. Whether you’re dining solo, meeting friends, or just looking to treat yourself to a perfect brunch, this place truly delivers. The Turkish Eggs with Sujuk alone are worth coming back for — and I definitely will!
