Solar De Cahuenga

I ordered a Breakfast Sandwich with Fries and a Spanish Latte. The food was absolutely excellent. The fries were a superb mix of crisp and soft, and the sandwich was a blend of fabulous flavors in every bite. I truly had to slow myself down to appreciate every element of the sandwich, it was beyond all expectations. The Spanish Latte is similarly a phenomenal menu item. I ordered it with whole milk and iced, and it mixed with the flavor of condensed milk and coffee in a beautiful way. I am not someone who particularly enjoys the taste of coffee, but I do want to taste it in my drinks, and you can certainly taste it here. I recommend drinking it quickly if you order an iced drink, as the ice does melt quite fast, but do take your time to appreciate the flavor profile. The barista I spoke with was so cordial and professional. I told her I had never been to this cafe, and she walked me through the menu quickly after asking me a few questions about what I was looking for. After I was finished with my meal, she was attentive and helped me with any questions I had. The atmosphere of Solar de Cahuenga is similarly excellent. It feels like a cafe, and the tables and chairs look rustic, but they feel secure and stable. The decor is simple and pleasant, and customers have their choice of sitting indoors to enjoy the sound of coffee making, kitchen ambience, and lively discussion, or outside to be more alone with their thoughts and the roar of Los Angeles traffic. The only minor criticism I have is of the music in the cafe. It was by no means so horrendous to the point of ruining the atmosphere, but it did clash with the atmosphere. I think music with more of a relaxed vibe would fit this cafe best. Again, I want to stress that this is a minor, minor issue. I would score Atmosphere at this cafe at 4.5/5 if I could, but I cannot so I rounded it to 5. One last note. The food is expensive. The Breakfast Sandwich cost $16 and the Spanish Latte bumped my total up to $25. It is not an inexpensive dining experience, bit this to be expected in Hollywood. Know before you go that you will have to spend a large amount here, and you may not want to make this your daily coffee and writing stop if you are watching your budget.

10/10 TRY THIS SPOT! Super impressed with everything. I got The iced solar and it taste just like a nice cup of horchata except with a boost. The food was also amazing I got The pain perdu, fruit cup, my friend got lemon ricotta pancakes and everything was absolutely delicious down to the fruit. Just here visiting and needed coffee and breakfast super happy we stopped here and spent the morning enjoying the good vibes of the cafe and their amazing food.

Went in on a Saturday morning (7/29/22) for breakfast. Ordered Breakfast Burrito with roasted potatoes, Bagel & Schmear and freshly pressed orange juice. There is a lot of seating area and the color scheme is super cute. The service was really great and prompt. The breakfast burrito was super savory. The egg wasn’t greasy, the bacon bits added a crispy crunch, and the black beans were great addition. The roasted potatoes were seasoned superbly! A great crunch as well. The bagel & schmear: The everything bagel was toasted great, was not dry or too chewy. The salmon served had a great smokey flavor. The orange juice was super refreshing and not sugary. The breakfast burrito is the item I will go back for!

As we return back to normal so does our amazing neighborhood traditions. After such a long shut down of good businesses, such as this one I was happy to return to this quickly. I spent 2 hours here on purpose. Feeling the seat and eating this slowly. It's important as a creative to journal and happy they let us enjoy their newly reshuffled patio area this way. Great job Solar! You were missed and still very loved!

Me and my best friend just had brunch here a couple days ago and it was incredible !!! We had perfectly fried eggs and my friend had the vegan omelette. Both tasted so good. The iced coffee was one of the best iced coffees I’ve had in a while, which is so important to me as a coffee enthusiast. LOL. This place was the perfect place to be able to catch up with my friend, with the beautiful patio filled with plants and the fountain. All the employees had good vibes and great service. 10/10 do recommend! I will definitely be back. 😀👋.

37.75 Excellent food and great price! I used to live on the same street about 25 years ago and I chose to go back and see the neighborhood but I saw this place and decided to try it, I’m so glad I did! We tried an omelette, and coffee, and a cake and some other plates. All were delicious! The atmosphere is relaxed and very enjoyable, the staff friendly and helpful. I highly recommend!
