Breakfast is a breeze at Back on the Beach in Santa Monica!

by Valerie L at Citysearch

What made my experience at Back on the Beach cafe special was that it wasn't very crowded and their freshly squeezed orange juice was just like the kind I make at home. It's a very unpretentious little restaurant and it is clean and affordable. Service is prompt and I am definitely coming back to Back on the Beach as soon as I can.

• Pros: Best view in town (what beats the Pacific ocean I ask you?)
• Cons: I like to get my feet sandy but if it's not you, sit inside!

My favorite spot in Santa Monica

by denag at Citysearch

The food is always tasty even if its not the best you'll ever have. You don''t eat at Back on the Beach for the food - it's all about The Beach. To sit and have brunch with your toes digging in the sand on a lazy sunday is simply the best. The breakfast quesidilla is tasty and makes you forget you're eating egg whites instead of the real thing.

• Pros: The Beach! Relaxing and easy brunch spot
• Cons: Slow service, food could be better.

Best brunch in L.A.

by italiansniper11 at Citysearch

This is definitely "the" place to be in L.A. on a sunny day. The brunch is fantastic. The sandwiches are awesome and the salads (especially the Fred's salad) are delicious. The cons of this place are that the wait is sometimes long on the weekends and you get sand in your shoes if you eat outside. (wear sandals)

Escape to Back on the Beach

I'm a low budget diner, but I eat out most of the time. This place has great food, great service, affordable prices and it's right on the beach. What more could you want?

• Pros: inexpensive, friendly service, great food
• Cons: parking
