Cora's Coffee Shoppe - Santa Monica

I hate to say, but this place is not good. Coffee was bitter. Your menu is strange, it says eggs Benedict, but then they say it's made with salmon? So not eggs Benedict? We waited so long for our food, without explanation, until after like 25 minutes when he brought us a croissant (what was nice) and told us that they had to make more framed spinach for the Benedict? ? Also not specified in the menu that part of this meal. When we got the food, it was disappointing. The Benedict tasted only salt and nothing else. We also sat next to the bush on the front, which is totally ill with like aphids that fall on our table. Finally, prices were out of place. $6.50 for a cappuccino like $25 for eggs? this place is a trap for tourists in the hotels. Waitstaff is very beautiful.. But that's the only good.

Hands down best brunch spot with the most sweetest and attentive staff! Foods to die for! Made my first trip out here super amazing will be coming back to the this spot again!

Pooped in for a quick breakfast. Ordered a **** Mary and a Margarita. They were tasty. These pancakes were made with oj! Definitely new and something to try! They were light, fluffy and filled with blueberries -YUM! Poached eggs and the bacon and eggs rounded out the fare for a great breakfast! The staff was attentive, courteous , menu knowledgeable and friendly! Overall a fairly good morning experience!

I've been coming here for years. I haven't been. Our server Gilbert was angry and rude from the start. It was like he couldn't disturb us. We had asked for water without ice, he brought ice and when I asked if we could have it without ice, he said nothing, went away and returned. After the order I went inside to order pancakes for when we finished our main course. We were done and he went to my table and all his other tables didn't say anything. Water empty, napkins on plates. The lady at the table on the way stopped another server and said she had seen Gilbert and she had asked for acid cream. Next, someone came out of our check and I asked for a manager. I must be transparent to say that when the manager came, I was angry, so I started hard. I was as clear as I could, what happened and what I wanted and he said? if you don't like how we do things here, I'm just gonna pay for your breakfast and you can go?. I had simply asked that he rated Gilbert and TG with him?t seemed like a fit for a server position and so we went, no water, no pancakes, and after 10 years in this restaurant I will never go again. It is sad that you go to a table service restaurant to pay a relatively high price for breakfast, and you the guest are not rated or seen as a guest. Good luck and hopefully property sees this and can turn around the guest experience.

Great traditional Jewish deli. I had the hot corned beef on rye. It tasted exactly like a good deli corned beef sandwich should taste. I will definitely be back.
