Reviews for Gabriella Café in Santa Cruz, CA
Best brussel sprouts in town! We also enjoyed the butternut ravioli.
This cute lil place has some serious power packed food. Cauliflower is a must. Grilled peaches are so delicious. Every chew on... the Gnocchi is memorable. The fall off the bone braised lambshank is heavenly. So glad to have been able to partake in thisdelightful place and their ambiance and food is made with love. Read more
This charming little house restaurant is very cozy. The staff is welcoming and attentive very small place. If you wanna break... from the ordinary this place is a good option. This place is old and has some holes but still very nice. Food is very good andfresh check it out for a date or solo is good too. Read more
Cute cafe with patio seating. Don’t skip on the crispy cauliflower appetizer and the tagliatelle with bolognese- both... fantastic. Skip on the weird butternut squash that comes with beets and apples, texture is missing on this one and the ravioliturns red from the beets. Service was fantastic and the mimosas with fresh squeezed OJ are on point. Definitely a place youshould check out. Read more
Great brunch in downtown Santa Cruz and the patio is dog friendly. I had the breakfast tacos which were great, and the homemade... salsa is awesome. Their potatoes are super (fried) yummy. Wine and beer are available including mimosas. ???? Read more
Brunch remains meh. The hollandaise sauce remains devoid of any lemon flavor, and for the second dining experience all the... poached eggs were cooked solid. That’s the whole point of eggs Benedict, runny yolks. Service also continues to be cheerfulbut inept depending on staff. On the plus side, the crispy cauliflower was very tasty. There is potential here. Read more
Nice Italian restaurant. Pasta was good especially the ravioli. Tasty fluffy bread and good cauliflower. We sat outdoor with... heaters and it was ok but it's nicer inside. Good service Read more
I have always enjoyed Gabriella, Besides being a fount of casual fine dining, they are the restaurant that completely turned... around my childhood dislike of Brussels sprouts. Since then I've enjoyed Brussels sprouts in many places, but Gabriella's arestill the best. Last time here my wife and I shared the Brussels sprouts for $12 and a wonderful butternut squash ravioli at$25. It was pricey but there was plenty to share. Read more
