Thank you for making my 7 year old grand daughter's birthday so special. Because Cafe Nouveau had done a great job on her 6th birthday she wanted to return for her special breakfast and again it was totally wonderful. The service was spot on, the food delicious and it made the start of our day perfect. We had a cozy patio table for our party of 6 and now we want to return soon just to request that spot again. And because we are locals our goal is to visit as often as possible. Thank you Cafe Nouveau.

This is my hands down favorite "special" breakfast place in Ventura. I have yet to have a bad experience. There is always a wait on weekends and sometimes on weekdays, so not the place to go if you are in a hurry. Once you eat their delicious food you will understand the reason so many locals can't stay away. I'm a huge fan of almost every meal I've ever tried. The sweet potato biscuits and blueberry corn muffins are creative takes on traditional breakfast staples. Every time my boyfriend and I go we share something new and the arugula gorgonzola and bacon frittata (I keep trying new things but just can't quit that one!) They have beer and wine and mimosas and (I think soju) bloody Mary's. The decor inside the house and in the garden is very pleasing. As would be expected, there is a lot of Art Nouveau artwork on the wall, the tables and the furniture and bathrooms run along that same theme too. The garden is so lovely! Started by the same proprietor that owned Pete's Breakfast House - another Ventura restaurant with a cult following.

Hands down one of my favorite restaurants. The place is absolutely stunning and the food was delicious. The service was great, our waiters David and Raul were very attentive and polite. We received our food very fast and truly enjoyed our experience here. If you decide to go to Cafe Nouveau you won't be disappointed!

This place is very good. It gets crowded just just have to wait for a table but it's worth it.

Great Ambiance!!! Large Portions, good food quality. A bit $$$ but definitely worth the money.

Yummm!!! As always, can depend on my yelpers in finding this gem!! We ordered: maple bacon beignets, egg benevilla, and the banana fosters pancakes! Everything was delicious!! The maple bacon beignets were crunchy, with a nice maple glaze, bacon bits, and dusted in powdered sugar. The egg benevilla was a twist on the traditional eggs Benedict, in which the poached eggs sat on top of some fried crispy cheesy tamales. It was so flavorful and loved the contrasting textures with every bite! The pancakes were gigantic and super fluffy. The banana fosters topping complemented the pancakes well. The only thing I wish is for the ability to do a half order of pancakes here. Although it was good, it was too much of it for one order. Our server, Jason, was the best! He was SO friendly and came by often to check on us. My little girl even kept commenting about how nice he was and how much she liked him (haha). Ambiance was super cute in the patio area that looked like a garden. Would definitely recommend this place!

Finally got back to this restaurant after six years prior to Covid. We were lucky we got there early I think about nine on a Sunday so we got in pretty easy. It was rather cold outside so we sat inside. When we left, you should've seen the line. I love the decor very art deco. Our server was Victor. He was excellent. Make sure we had coffee, water, etc. They have such a large menu was so hard to order. I had the bacon avocado omelette potatoes, and I chose the blueberry corn muffin. It was very different and had lots of blueberries in it. My husband had chili Verde omelette with crispy hashbrowns, which he loves. He had a sweet potato muffin again very unusual. The coffee was OK. The bathrooms are very unique as to the decor. Good for Family especially outside.

Finally we got to try this place. The first couple times there were long lines. Now I understand why. We ordered a frittata with caramelized onions bacon and Gorgonzola. It's exactly as it sounds. Amazing. It's paired with their delicious soft blueberry cornbread. 10/10 my daughter ordered giant chocolate chip pancakes, unfortunately they don't have a kids menu so that's important to know. And my husband ordered an omelet with the best potatoes you will ever have with breakfast. The only two things i didn't like was the dry biscuit which is fine because you absolutely should have the cornbread and their lack of kids menu, cause 85 percent of that pancake went to the trash. And lastly, Jonathan our server was so kind and quick. Never needed to wait long because he was on top of it! Service was great, will definitely come back here!

The food is always good. The service is Top notch with Carlos and his wonderful crew. The ambiance is comforting, like your eating at family home either inside or outside that comfort is always there. When your there your family.

Update: Went on a busy Sunday and the food quality was still amazing!! We were seated and served quickly. This place is still hands down one of the best breakfast places in Ventura.
