What People Are Saying About Cayenne Cafe
The Owner
Cayenne Cafe
Owner
Cayenne Mediterranean Cafe offers its patrons an unbeatable combination: a relaxed, informal atmosphere and a wide selection of marvelous dishes. The experienced owners work together harmoniously in creating a fusion of flavors from the Mediterranean region. Exquisite meals are prepared from fresh organic ingredients seasoned with garlic, mint, parsley, cumin and olive oil. Our menu is influenced by many parts of the Mediterranean, including Middle Eastern, Moroccan and Greek flavors. Our menu includes such entrees as Zataar-Crusted Chicken, Couscous Morocco and Farfalle Casbah.
Our indoor patio is perfect for any special event or occasion. The outdoor cafe style seating is great for spending time with someone special or just relaxing with friends while enjoying one of our 100% organic coffees or teas. We also welcome catering and carry-out orders.

In Short
This bright, cheerful Mediterranean cafe attracts an eclectic Beverly crowd for all-day breakfasts, sunny lunches and lively Middle Eastern dinners. Stamped metal lanterns hang over the large sidewalk patio; inside Casablanca fans, oriental silk pillows, candles and fountains lend a romantic feel. The menu conjures Morocco, Tuscany, Greece, and Persia. Pizzas, burgers, sandwiches and salads include touches of aioli, tapenade, stewed plums and walnuts. For dinner, choose from a large selection of Middle Eastern appetizers, pomegranate chicken, pastas and kabobs.

This Mediterranean-themed restaurant recently received a Manhattanesque-makeover (think East Village charm) that will win over couples and small parties alike. The menu boasts an assortment of yummy apps,hearty salads, specialty pizzas and amazing main courses at super-reasonable prices.

This restaurant is definitely the best Middle Eastern food I've had in LA. I went here recently with some friends, and halfway through the meal, we ended up ordering more plates because the food was so delicious! My boyfriend even commented that he has not had such amazing Middle Eastern food since his grandmother used to cook it for him. The ambience is great (nice, yet comfortable) and the service was outstanding. Everything is well-priced and street parking is easy to find. And if you go, be sure to order the Zaatar Bread...it's a must!!!

Wow is it addictive!!!!! I am a regular customer at Cayenne for many reasons. The waitstaff is quick and friendly and the owners, Sam and Noura, are always there to make sure that the food that comes out of the kitchen is of the best quality everyday, all the time. Apart from that I can go on and on about the food. Breakfasts have huge portions and are reasonably priced (as is everything on the menu). The lunch and dinner menus offer so many options of healthy and flavorful fare that you can never get bored of the restaurant. Many of the dishes are the inventions of the coook/owner Noura (BTW formerly of Noura's Cafe on Melrose for those of you who remember how good that restaurant was) like Pomegranite Chicken. The way she makes it was featured in the L.A. Times food section not too long ago. The sauce is so yummy I ask for extra even though they give you plenty! There is another chicken dish called Zaatar Chicken, which is chicken breast coated in Mediterrean herbs. It's fabulous.! Another great thing about Cayenne is that if you have friends who aren't in the mood to try something exotic they've got great gourmet hamburges, pizza with a twist, wraps, pastas, steaks to satisfy everyone.
