Great food that tastes like home cooking. Portions are huge, you’ll have leftovers. It’s got a family vibe. Beef Stroganoff on fries was awesome. Best breaded chicken sandwich. Make sure to buy a loaf of bread when leaving. They make their own, amazing.

Best OLIVE Bread ? (will slice for you if you ask) ❤️❤️. Ate here recently and had a great dining experience. Greek Omelette, Salmon Sandwich, Tomato Bisque Soup was all delicious. Love their freshly made juices (can combine them). Hubby had the Cantaloupe & Honeydew combo; I opted for the Watermelon. Both so refreshing. Love being back in the area so we can dine here more often.

Great food, but in my opinion, it is pretty pricey. I did love that they bring you a wooden board with fresh bread and 4 different spreads. ? that was my favorite part. They have some outdoor sitting.

The aroma of Jose's fresh baked breads, croissants and hand-rolled baguettes envelop the no nonsense dining room, caressing like grandmama's embrace. Here, baking is art. Your eyes devour the pastries long before the pleasure passes your lips. THE BAKER BAKERY & CAFE is a terrific "brasserie."(I absorbed a petit French vocabulary watching Gene Kelly, Leslie Caron, and Oscar Levant in the MGM musical, "An American in Paris." Incidentally, the film was photographed in the early 1950's, on 44 sets in Culver City, California, about ten miles South, down the 405.)The servers understand that they are serving quality and respect the customer's subtlety of choice. Chef Adman's sandwiches are thick and delicious. His interpretation of a classic French omelette is, according to my wife, terrific. His salads, also generous, are fresh and crisp. There are a few vegan items on the menu. The Baker's coffee, their espresso brew, is magnifique.Your server greats you with an assortment of freshly baked breads and a tray of condiments. My wife enjoys the whipped butter and cheese spread, while I munch on the salted olives, and spread their homemade jelly on the warm whole wheat breads. (Sometimes diets be damné.)My wife ordered the omelette and I the vegan, veggie sandwich and lentil soup combo. The sandwich is available with a choice of a side salad, fries, fresh fruit, or a choice of soups.The bowl of rich, slightly spicy, vegan lentil soup, complemented with cubes of boiled potato, is more than satisfying.My wife's golden-yellow omelette and crisp bacon arrived steaming warm and delicious. She also ordered her favorite coffee drink: a single shot of decaf espresso, placed into a large cup. Then, non-fat foam is scooped into the cup, to its rim. She enjoys it with a spoon.The large veggie-hummus sandwich, containing avocado, tomato, cucumber, red onion, pickled red peppers, is served on a hummus coated, freshly baked baguette or thick bread slices. I selected raisin/walnut bread. Déleciux!Under Jackie's ownership, THE BAKER BAKERY & CAFE has expanded, adding additional seating. A children's menu is attached to the regular menu. Outside, tables hug the front window, inside, the dinning area has increased by a third and their kitchen area has doubled. The pleasure of their meals have remained magnifique.A meal at The Baker Restaurant Bakery runs $20 or so. I usually eat only half of their generous serving, and take the rest home.STUFF: A selection of Jose 's still warm breads are displayed. The breads will be sliced to order. There are no booths. Everything is wheelchair accessible, including the gender-neutral bathroom. Parking is free, although limited. Street parking is available. When using street parking, there is an slight incline and a low curb.Vegetarian options: The large, avocado, tomato, cucumber, onion, and pickled pepper sandwich, on a hummus coated, freshly baked bread, is delicious. The lentil soup is also vegan.Parking: Small, tight parking lot. Low curb to sidewalk.

My wife and I went the The Baker today and our experience was fantastic. It is truly a gem. The food is delicious (compliments to the chef) the bread is baked fresh, and the customer service was great. We are definitely going back. Looking forward to trying the blackened salmon. We thank you very much for providing such a memorable experience.Bernard and Tiara

The portions were massive (larger than I expected), but the quality was just fine. The server never came back to refill our drinks, but other than that this place is very nice. The atmosphere is comforting, the food is decent, and the service was fine.

Stopped here on vaca, Food was really yummy I got a salmon sandwich. Bread on the sandwich was delicious. I chose the olive bread. I didn't know my sandwich came with fries. Would have opted for a healthier side. Asked staff about the half sandwich/soup or salad deal options and was given 3 different answers of what the options were which ended up confusing everyone at the table. Asked if we wanted a bread basket that we never got. Give it a shot.

Delicious home made breakfast. You can’t go wrong here. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere was comfortable and cozy. The chef and owner came out to greet us and they were very kind and hospitable. These people really want to make sure you have a great experience. If you’re looking for a place to eat look no further. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing food, AMAZING service, I highly recommend. We destroyed our food! This place feels like Mom's cooking. Nothing crazy, just organic delicious food. It's so healthy, and an amazing break from all the synthetic and fake food sold these days. I highly recommend this small business!

I have been coming to this restaurant and bakery for many years. Today I went in strictly for a loaf of sourdough bread which I’ve bought many times. The bread had gone up significantly in price from $6.00 to $8.95. I was shocked but thought if the bread is really great today I could accept this price on occasion. However the bread was not great. The crust was so tough it was like chewing on cardboard. I definitely can not recommend them now for bread and I hesitate to go there for lunch where sandwiches would be made on this bread.
