These tiny pancakes are absolutely amazing! Just a perfect half-stack of these little pancakes can brighten your day, even though it leaves you wanting to order more. The chorizo scramble is the ideal choice for breakfast. The service is incredibly quick, and their coffee is a delightful escape from the usual bitter brews found in the area. I visited for the first time yesterday and I couldn't resist coming back toda... View all feedback.

What Ronnielynn Lamb dislikes about Lama Beans:
Ordered a iced chai that was mostly milk. Chicken and waffles was inedible. The waffles had a strong aftertaste and the chicken looked burnt. I took one bite and could tell that it definitely was chicken from the day before reheated and tried to pass off as fresh. The grayish meat should have been white. I ordered and received my order in less then......I repeat LESS THEN !!!! 5 MINUTES. CHICKEN takes longer then 5 m... View all feedback.

The staff is very friendly, and the food is excellent. I've only ever ordered takeout, but I plan to dine in someday.

I'll gone to LB for the Corn beef hash but think they have changed the recipe where there is now more potatoes than corn beef (cutback). Infact the potatoes were too soft like mash potatoes. It doesn't have that pan fried taste. Before you taste chunks of Corn beef...not anymore. On the California Benedict instead of english muffin it was put on toast. Toast absorb the eggs too much and made it soggy.

You have to order at the bar, I had a brunch and it was pretty good, the place is good, although it is on the outskirts and the area is not very nice.

Very large portions. Great sauces. The street side atmosphere is not pleasant.

Our favorite breakfast place. great customer service. they always offer me complimentary drinks.

Llama Beans Cafe offers a vibrant brunch experience with a menu showcasing fluffy pancakes, fresh sandwiches, and notable dishes like the Crab Cake Benedict. While the atmosphere is cozy and service is generally quick, some patrons reported inconsistencies in food quality and preparation. The cafe provides a variety of menu options, including gluten-free and vegan choices. Many recommend the tiny pancakes and chorizo scramble as must-try items, contributing to an overall inviting dining experience. However, a few negative experiences regarding service and food freshness have been noted.

I absolutely loved it! The coffee and pancakes were delicious. The coffee has a rich flavor and pairs well with milk. There are a few street parking spots available in front of the café.

Updating this review as my eggs Blackstone were quite perfect today, the presentation was excellent, and the staff was super nice. The only thing that would have been better for me would have been that I like my Hollandaise sauce a little more brownish. But that said... The eggs were perfectly cooked, the domestic pommes were delicious, I just think they need to top Hollandaise and Salsa game a little. But what is overcoming for me is that they are a perfect place to hide and fix on your laptop in a beautiful cool environment just minutes from the highway, or your tires on Don's tires over the road. I'm back and hope! Also the staff is super nice and helpful.
