Reviews for The Nest: A Breakfast Joint in Bellflower, CA
This place was busy and for good reason! The food was delicious! The blackberry iced coffee was absolutely fantastic. The... perfect amount of sweet without going overboard. Avocado toast was simply amazing on some delicious bread. Eggs came out justright, potatoes were deliciously cooked and seasoned, and the whisky bacon waffle was delicious. The waffle had a strong smokyflavor, if you?re into that, you?ll love it. If you aren?t, you?ll want to steer clear. Customer service was great to boot!Worth the wait! My only complaint was that the place is VERY loud. I?m not sure there is much they can do about it in thiscurrent location, but it wasn?t a problem enough to drop a star. Will definitely be going back! Read more
5 stars for ambiance, service, food, and cost. I love the music they place while I enjoy my meal. Service is friendly and... attentive, not overly so. Food is DELICIOUS. Their pancakes were melting in my mouth, and the veggie scrabble has a heartyportions of veggies! Also, the cost is low. So awesome to find a place that has great food at a low price when everything elseis increasing. Some other recommendations are their gravy biscuit and chilaquiles. Read more
So I use to come here often but moved to a different county and haven't been here in almost three years but it HAS NOT missed a... beat! Maybe even more delicious than I remember! The Mint mojito coffee was a great starter. The servers are GREAT. Offeredeveryone in line home fries for free while we waited. Once inside, was checked on by the owner often which was just a nicetouch. My mother in law ordered shrimp abs grits which I've had before and thought was delicious, she said it was slightly sweetbut was a nice touch. My wife ordered the breakfast poutine and that gravy with a over easy egg was scrumptious, I mean I almostliked it more than mine! I ordered the Beef Short rib hash that came with a savory horseradish sauce so it adds a slighttart/bitter, don't know how to describe it but I mean it was absolutely delicious. Easily my favorite breakfast place. So manyoptions and the food was wonderful. I also got the custard French toast, I'm not a fan of French toast at all but I enjoyedthis. Wouldn't order it as a stand alone dish, but it was like a nice desert at the end. Read more
I joined the wait list on Yelp, which helped as there was a line. There is only a few parking spots behind the building, we had... to park down the street on Alondra. It is very small inside and the music is loud, too loud in my opinion. They have local artpieces on the wall for sale. Collectively we ordered the custard French toast with sausage patties, pancakes with bacon, shortribs w eggs, potatoes and side of fruit. We enjoyed all of the food which were large portions. I also ordered the iced coffeeflight and a regular coffee. The staff was friendly and we did not have to wait long. The coffee as well as the flight were meh,wouldn't order again. Read more
If you are debating of eating at this breakfast joint I?d recommend that you don?t. I have been recommended this place by many... people. Well I decided to try it out. I had been told that parking was limited, which it was. I had go park across the streetbut was able to find a spot. Second, the wait will be long. You can go to the restaurant and put your name down and waitapproximately one hour or you can join the list via yelp. The issue is that there is a line because there is also limited seats.I felt uncomfortable by how cramped the place felt. The place was dirty, dusty, and the napkins that we received were alreadydirty. The menu is quite limited and honestly made me loose my appetite nothing seemed to grab my attention. I decided to playit safe and get the pancakes and eggs. The pancakes were half hard and just tasted like any ordinary pancake. The eggs on theother side were good. I also got to try the churro waffle that was good but just seems as a dessert and not a breakfast plate. Ialso ordered a ?large OJ? which was $8 dollars and was probably the worse OJ I have had, plus it was just a normal cup nothinglarge about it. So to those that are debating this place, just go elsewhere. The wait is not for being good, it?s for being asmall establishment. Read more
Excellent vibe and service. The parking was scarce and the wait was as long as anticipated. Music: Lots of Michael Jackson... played during our visit. There are many food options and they all were visually appealing. With many breakfast spots, the carbsare in abundance. If you are seeking turkey bacon, you will not find it here. However, they have other novel selections such asthe flight of flavored ice coffees (check out the pictures). Not too sweet with the hint of tasty flavors: blackberry, raspberryand mint (one of each). Custard French Toast: Gooooodness, the portion was huge. I was only able to eat 1/4. It was not heavilyyoked like some French toast and the almonds were the perfect addition. Note: There are other topping options in case you havefood allergies. Grits: I ordered the grits as my side. The portion was perfect. The texture was very creamy. The taste wasunique. I cannot figure it out but look forward to trying it again, maybe with some added toppings. Churro Waffles: Adelightful waffle with cinnamon goodness. It does not come with syrup. We found a simple drizzle of syrup adds greatflavor. Tips: Get on the list in advance. Allow time for parking. Some people waited for others to come out to get aspot. Don't sit under the speaker, it becomes difficult to hear your guest. You can pay the bill on your phone with the QRCode. Read more
I heard of this spot thru my nephew, stated there's always a long wait, we went today and had to wait about 30mins, but let me... say it was so worth it! Had the chilaquiles they were delicious! We also ordered the french toast, apple juice, coffee flight (amust) and the cold Brew. Read more
Always a great place for great food and customer service. We keep coming back again and again for the chilaquiles and strip... steak and eggs! Bacon waffle is amazing and the coffee too! Chill atmosphere. Expect to wait for a table but it?s well worth it! Read more
