Blue Daisy

We had a wonderful breakfast at Blue Daisy while staying nearby. We arrived around 8 AM with our 11-month-old baby and were happy to see they had high chairs available--such a plus for families!The outdoor patio was beautiful, and the food was just as impressive. I loved my Turkish latté--it was creamy with just the right amount of sweetness. The breakfast burrito was flavorful and filling, and the seasoned fries were a perfect side.By 9 AM, the place was packed, so I'm glad we came early. Great food, cozy vibe, and super family-friendly--I'd definitely come back!

This was a really sweet find. They have gluten-free options for crêpes and other dishes, including French toast. We ordered the gluten-free French toast and the bacon crêpe to share. The portion sizes were large, for sharing so it was nice to have some variety.The crêpe came with a salad, which was really good--I loved the dressing. The French toast was served with bananas and fresh strawberries, which made it even more enjoyable to have the fresh fruit.The waiters were very nice and helpful, but there was a slight delay in service. I had to ask for a menu and the check twice, even though it wasn't super busy at the time due to the fires and wind storm nearby. The food did come quickly, once we got the menus and ordered. We found parking on the street, which cost about $2.50 an hour, and we needed about an hour for the whole meal. I'm not sure if there was other parking nearby, but it wasn't hard to find.My daughter really enjoyed this spot, and so did I. If it hadn't been so windy, we would've loved to sit outside. While everything else was wonderful, the delay in getting menus and the check are why I gave them four out of five stars. Overall, our experience was delightful, and we would definitely return.

Blue Daisy is a popular Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch spot in Santa Monica that is open daily from 8 am to 4 pm. The place is popular and there were a few people out there waiting to be seated. Even though I was traveling solo, I made a reservation. I should say at the onset that they have no lot parking. However, there was street parking and I was fortunate to get a spot across from the restaurant. This is another plus for the eatery because it is not in a busy area and therefore, is easily accessible. Walking in, the place was packed and I was able to get a corner table, which I hoped would be a warm area of the dining space. More on that later.I came here to order something different and chose the Mediterranean Eggs (3 eggs sunny side up with tomatoes, bell peppers, basil, feta, bread). The dish arrived with mouthwatering optics and an inviting aroma. I liked how the sliced tomatoes and bell peppers were imbedded in the egg whites, with the fresh basil used as a garnish. I asked for the feta on the side (glad I did because I do not think the dish needed it). The bread was beautifully toasted and married well with the accompanying house strawberry jam. I asked for a side of bacon and got 3 skimpy strips, which were over priced. While the Breakfast dish was a sure winner on taste, freshness, texture, flavor and ingredients, it was cooling fast. Why? The establishment had both the front and back doors open, on this chilly day. Most people were eating in their winter jackets. Why do restaurants adopt this practice? Do they wish to serve cold food? It dampened what otherwise would have been a warm and cozy brunch experience.

We stayed at an Airbnb nearby and decided to try Blue Daisy for breakfast with my wife and our 11-month-old baby on a Monday morning around 8 am. When we arrived, it was almost empty, but by 9 am, the place was completely full, which shows how popular it is!The restaurant has a large and beautiful outdoor patio, which is perfect for enjoying the sunny Santa Monica weather. There's also plenty of indoor seating if you prefer to dine inside. One of the highlights for us was that they had a high chair available, making it very family-friendly and convenient for parents.[HOT DRINKS]+Turkish Coffee (small, espresso size) for $5 - 4/5+Turkish Latté (creamy and a touch of sweetness) for $6.50 - I didn't try it, but my wife enjoyed it.[BREAKFAST]+Breakfast Combo (3 eggs any style, turkey bacon, French toast with fruit) for $20 - Everything was great, but I wished I ordered normal bacon instead of the turkey bacon. The turkey bacon was a bit dry and not as enjoyable as normal bacon would have been. - 4.5/5+Breakfast Burrito (eggs, bacon, meatsauce, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, mix cheese, side of salsa, and mix green salad) for $20 - I didn't try it, but my wife liked it a lot.[SIDES]+Seasoned French fries for $7 - 4.5/5Overall, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. It's a great spot for breakfast or brunch, whether you're with family, friends, or even solo. I'd definitely recommend it, and we'd love to come back again on our next visit to Santa Monica!

11/06/2024Blue Daisy - Santa MonicaI've been to Blue Daisy for brunch several times and always enjoyed their breakfast items. Today, I decided to try their lunch menu, and it did not disappoint! Both Marco and Marcelo provided excellent service, making the experience even better. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing meal. I look forward to coming back soon!

This place was very cute inside & right on the corner! The staff were friendly & attentive. We came for breakfast on a Saturday and were sat down quickly. The breakfast was okay! Maybe we should have tried some of the other items, but nonetheless very tasty! I enjoyed the yogurt bowl! There were nuts, & peanut butter, and berriesThe French toast was a bit hard and the patty tasted like a hamburger patty. Overall a very aesthetic restaurant & have heard great things about this place. I will definitely try it out again to try the other food items.

Very cute restaurant located in the bottom of a fancy apartment complex on the crossing of 6th street and broadway!!The service is amazing and the entire kitchen are there to help you enjoy your meal. The Turkish latte is a must have and the Halloumi grilled cheese is a must as well!!The food is amazingly prepped and taste fresh!! Amazing experience and will do it again! Being originally from Syria, Turkish food is home and reminds me of home!

Blue Daisy is a top notch place for a yummy casual breakfast. There was a short wait when we went on a Saturday morning but it was well worth it. The food is healthy and hearty. The Napa Scramble was filled with veggies and the sun dried tomato's really made it flavorful. It was tapped with a half sliced avocado. The cappucino was creamy and rich. Would definitely make this a regular breakfast stop.

My friend and I came here for a quick brunch after a workout. There was a line for a table (we didn't have a reservation), but there was plenty of open space at the bar. I ordered the shakshuka and my friend ordered the turkey sandwich with gluten free bread. The shakshuka was hearty, so I was glad that it's a starter. It's nice that they have gluten free bread since not many places offer that option. Our server was very kind, and the food came out relatively fast. I'd definitely come again if/when I'm in the area.
