Great food but….. - Edit
Loved our food - breakfast burrito and a club.
Read moreIt took 30 minutes for our food to come out because they had to make new chickn because they ran out. Would have been nice to have a heads up on the delay rather than have to come in to ask why the delay.
For the price, the portions are tiny.

AVO Cafe - Edit
Loved everything about this place, the food, the atmosphere, etc. Though, the prices were a bit painful, but it was all vegan and organic after all... The BLA salad was great. Shocked they got so much flavor into that tofu. High quality ingredients. I'll be back when I'm in the area again.

Loved this little place! - Edit
I’m sad we were only able to try this place out once but it was a great experience with wonderful food. I had the “tuna” style baguette, a smoothie and the hummus and pita chips. Super filling, amazingly tasty and all organic!

Had the BLA Panini and it was awesome. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of flavor in this sandwich! It was seasoned perfectly and the baguette was crunchy and light.

Great place for lunch - so friendly! and delicious - Edit
I've been to AVO Cafe a few times now and each time my boyfriend and I share a couple items. The family that runs the cafe are so friendly (as is the big macaw bird in the yard next store haha). The food tastes homemade and is so satisfying. My faves so far have been the Italian Eggplant and the Chicken Pesto panini.

Can't recommend it enough! - Edit
I've been here a few times and always enjoy myself. It's a family-run place with excellent organic food. I love the pizza and the baked desserts, but you can't go wrong!

Gem of a Cafe - Edit
The food is wonderful the owner and staff were even better. They were very helpful in deciding what to order. We had the Caesar Salad and it was wonderful, the dressing was not over powering and the pumpkin seeds and kale made it substantial. We also had the meatball panini with their spicy sauce. It was great. We highly recommend Avo.

Amazing café - Edit
When I travel to a new city, sometimes I find one restaurant that I wish I could take home with me.
Read moreAnd this is one of them.
I've only gone twice during my trip to Santa Monica, unfortunately, but I love this place.
The owners and staff are super friendly, and the food is creative and delicious.
The backyard is such a relaxing place to eat, I kept forgetting I was in the middle of the city.
I will definitely, definitely come back when I can. I miss it already.
Pros: Excellent food, Comfortable/relaxing eating area, Friendly owners and staff

Quaint deliciousness. - Edit
Lovely little cafe in the neighborhood. Truly dedicated owner and staff. Enjoyed a very simple brunch meal and will be sure to return. Great variety from smoothies to desserts. If the food isn't enough of a draw, then definitely plan a visit to their peaceful outdoor retreat.
