Fiddler’s Bistro

Great place for Breakfast. Artichoke and Asparagus Omelet was huge and delicious. Artichokes and Asparagus are two of my favorite vegetables. Nice waitress, fast service. One star off because the coffee was a little weak. I like my coffee strong. But the breakfast was outstanding, and I will be back again soon.

It was my first time eating here & I also celebrated my birthday here today with my family. The service was great & the food was amazing. I can’t wait to come back & try more of the delicious food. Thank you Fiddler’s for an incredible birthday brunch!

Our family loves Fiddler’s Bistro. We have 3 small children and have been going to Fiddlers every Sunday for the past several years. The food is always delicious but that’s not the only reason we love going to Fiddlers. Our kids know all the waiters and employees and they always give our family a warm welcome. In fact our boys accidentally dropped their favorite toys behind a built-​in booth and Carla (who works there) had the booth uninstalled a few weeks later and returned it to our kids on our next visit. Talk about going above and beyond. And Joey and Momo are just the best!!! Amazing food and equally amazing service. Couldn’t recommend it more! Some of our faves are: the waffle, french toast, chicken with mushrooms, omelettes, and delicious soups. A must-​try neighborhood spot.

Only went here cause I drive by it every day. Had kabobs for dinner and it was a little dry. Served with rice and hummus. It was not that bad. Service was great and friendly. The food was the only bad part.

Very slow service and poor menu choices for breakfast. I don’t understand what is wrong with this neighborhood. It is really lacking a good breakfast spot. For example look at Tiago on Hollywood. I can walk out of there with 2 eggs, a cut of Turkey a side salad and the best cappuccino in LA for the same price as this place. I feel like I’m getting ripped off here. I mean 3.50 for bacon is a ridiculous charge. It’s half the price of the breakfast!
–Edit Thanks for the owners snide reply. It’s not just me, I have been to your place twice. I gave you a second chance, but you are not humble. You are stuck in your ways. You say you made a good breakfast spot but you don’t listen to your customers. For that It is frustrating, I want a good place, I am telling you want I want. I would literally be at your restaurant 4 times a week. But you do not listen. So you do not get my service.
You have made a «good» restaurant to your own standards, I hope you enjoy dining at your own table. I wont be back.

I recently discovered this place. Inam hooked! Great friendly service, good food, nice atmosphere, good prices. This is my new spot!

Went here with a friend to grab a bite to eat for breakfast on a weekday. The space is actually very cute and large inside – we were one of a few patrons this particular morning so we were seated right away.
I decided to go with an order of the big deal – which came with croissant french toast, 2 eggs, and sausage. The meal itself was a decent size, but nothing really stood out food wise. I would say that the eggs were really well done and tasty, but the french toast was a bit underwhelming. The sausage was decent, but nothing to write home about.
Overall, this place has reasonable prices, but is not super cheap and the service is quirky, but friendly.

My best friend, boyfriend, and I came on a Sunday morning around 1pm. We got lucky with street parking, and we didn’t have to wait to be seated.
I got the Big Deal for $ 12.50. It came with a stack of pancakes, eggs cooked how you like it, and sausages (I got chicken). The pancakes were tasty. The chicken sausage was just whatever. I should’ve gotten regular sausages!
My best friend got the Greek Scramble and my boyfriend got the Breakfast Burrito. I tried some of their food. Again, it was good, but not amazing. All 3 of us agreed that the food was decent, but none of it really stood out to us. Perhaps it was because my expectations were just way too high. Coming from Nor Cal, I wanted to try some So Cal food that would blow my mind. But with that said, I probably should’ve ordered something more extravagant, rather than just a simple typical breakfast platter. That’s my bad. I guess my boyfriend’s right when he said, «Well, there’s only so much you can do with brunch».
But regardless, our server Vivian was wonderful! I enjoyed the outdoor seating. I’m not sure when I’ll be back, but I’m willing to give the other dishes a shot!

Planned a birthday brunch here for my best friend and I’m so glad I did! This place is a gem and it’s only 4 minutes away from LACMA so if you’re interested in walking off all that food, you’re in luck! The area is very hip, but the parking can be a hassle. They don’t have their own lot so the only thing you can do is street park. If you’re not handy with parallel parking you’re going to be driving around in circles so gear up on that skill.
From the outside it doesn’t look like much but don’t be deceived. When you walk in you’re introduced to a very Mediterranean style café with a full bar, a cute outdoor patio, and a diner style ambience all mixed together. It’s very chic in a subtle way, and I like how it feels really homey.
Now on to the food! Everything here is decently priced and you definitely get your bang for your buck. The portions are huge! So if you’re looking to share that’s completely doable here. They are super generous with their portions and that’s what really hit home for me. I love places that know how to feed their customers!
What we ordered: (This place also gives you bread/​pita and this tomato based paste. It’s super good! Who doesn’t love restaurant bread?!)
1. Club sandwich with seasoned fries– HUGE! You can definitely share this with someone. So good, and I like how they cut it into fours for you.
2. Beef Hash with hash browns and sunny side up eggs– so good! Not dry at all. Everything was a good combination together
3. Veggie Omelet with fresh greens– huge omelet, and they’re very generous amounts
4. Vegetable soup– savory, not too salty and there’s tons of veggies inside.
5. Turkey benedict– Nom! Typical turkey sliced benedict with eggs and hash browns.
Overall, head on over to this spot! The service here was great and everyone was super friendly!

I’ve been here 3 times
Everything tastes amazing, especially their pecan banana pancakes. Service is quick and efficient, everything is served in large portions so you may want to split with a friend.

If you are anything like me, you have probably driven by Fiddler’s Bistro many times and though to yourself something along the lines of «…perhaps I will try this place for brunch on a lazy weekend…»
Well, I finally tried it (Fiddler’s Bistro)… It was amazing… Do not delay giving this place a shot!!!
The parking was a bit of a challenge as the lot is super tiny, however, I was able to street park (2 hour street parking is available on the weekends). That said, the food and the vibe were fantastic.
Food was just right. My party had eggs benedict with bacon, croissant French toast with strawberries and chocolate, mashed potatoes with some sort of cheese sauce — just amazing, and more… All the dishes were incredibly yummy and judging from folks sitting next to us, salads, burgers, sandwiches, are also amazing.
The Vibe was great and the place had an incredibly diverse of clientele. The back patio was very intimate and hip; full of pet lovers, couples with small kids, and people enjoying wonderful fusion of comfort /​healthy /​hip, food. On the inside, the Vibe was a bit more low key, a wonderful cross between what seemed like intellectuals and young professionals displaying their passion for same fusion of comfort /​healthy /​hip, food.
I will be back many more times.

Great service and decent food. They have a patio in the back, which they kindly heated up for me and my dog. They brought out water for my dog, which is always appreciated. I LOVE dog-​friendly places. So sweet.
Service was a LITTLE slow, but I wasn’t in a rush, so it didn’t bother me. They give you complimentary pita and bread with a type of red hummus. VERY tasty, and I’m impressed they offer it for free. I got the Mediterranean platter, which was wonderful and had LOTS of food — olives, onions, hummus, baba ganoush, spanakopita, and more. Very filling and tasty. Also got the Steak Fajitas, and that was tasty as well. They offer flour or corn tortillas, and the meat was cooked well.
I enjoyed the food and the service, and if you’re in the area, I would recommend it.

Fiddler’s Bistro is one of those restaurants who welcomes it’s regulars like a loved family member and it’s new diners like good friends. A very relaxed restaurant on the quieter end of third street this beautiful little eatery is one to try out if you’re looking for well-​priced, quality food served with a special touch.
Without a doubt the most popular dish here is their famous Lamb Burger and for good reason! But I’m a fan of a lot of other menu items also, for example: the chicken fajitas or the stuffed chicken breast.
Highly recommended whether it’s a Sunday brunch or a Friday evening drinks and dinner.

Breakfast all day! My friend and I both went with the Big Deal-​2 eggs, choice of meat, and stack of 3 pancakes!
I got the banana pecan pancakes ($ 3.00), which the bananas and pecans are cooked inside the pancake not topped. My eggs scrambled with cheddar cheese ($ 1.25) and 2 pieces of bacon. The little things add up! My breakfast was nearly $ 20, and I only got water :-) Same for my friend, she added veggies to her eggs and that was extra.
For the most part, we enjoyed. We both agreed the pancakes were on the soft side, almost too soft. Plus, my friend had asked for her eggs to be scrambled hard and they were prettttyyyy soft-​I know, I tasted them. She didn’t finish them because they weren’t made as requested.
Parking is mostly on the street in front of restaurant and they have a small lot on the corner. They do have more than just breakfast! Worth a try.

I’ve had dinner and breakfast here and both were a hit.
I love that it’s small and not too fancy. The food is simply delish and the staff are great. They make you feel like you come there everyday.
I live walking distance so I’ll try to visit more often.

I’ve only gotten takeout here, but everything I’ve ever gotten has been really good.
Lamb kebab, delicious
Greek scramble, delicious (but not great for takeout– too much condensation)
Fiddler’s Burger with bacon and cheese, solid
Rib-​eye kabob, delicious
Lamb burger, AMAZING
Staff is very friendly.
It’s my takeout spot when I work nearby.
I like it bc it’s homemade/​diner style and easy to get/​in out of .
Good neighborhood joint.

Perfect neighborhood restaurant. Great service, friendly, food is consistently good and nice presentation. Clean restaurant Bomb Greek appetizers and salads! Like, I dunno what that sundried hummus bread spread something is, but it’s HELLA good. I like to come here when I want a low key quick brunch/​lunch or even to-​go dinner. Ha, I say low-​key however you still get the occasional celebrity spotting. I guess that’s why they come here too. Nobody rushing for a pic and they can get fed well.
Oh, and the French fries are basic and great!

While Fiddler’s Bistro is not inexpensive, the portions are big and the food is tasty. I was visiting L.A. over the Thanksgiving weekend and visited this place for dinner and breakfast. I ordered an appetizer platter that had about three dips, including hummus. The spanikopita was hefty and the best I’ve ever tried; so we ordered two more. Not cheap at $ 4.50 each but they are filling. My family was enamored of the chicken and cous cous soup. All diners are served free roasted pepper hummus and a basket of bread and pita. As for breakfast, I had very fluffy and delicious pancakes. My sister gave me some of her scrambled eggs with feta and spinach. They were delicious. I took off one star because Fiddler’s can do better with their coffee. It’s watered down. At $ 2.95 a cup, one expects a better quality brew.

Went day after Thanksgiving. Restaurant was almost full inside. Three servers. Service was slow for seating and order taking. Just felt slow overall. Our food took a long time to receive. When my wife asks the server if our food is coming and my son is saying he is hungry, this is not good. Lox was not fresh and had a metallicy taste. Had to be returned. My chorizo eggs was tasty. The salsa side was too vinegary. My son’s Choco banana pancake was enjoyed. I think it needed to be a bit softer, perhaps whipped cream or something to moisten it more. No complaints about the eggs Benedict.
Waitress apologized for slow service and returned lox. Took lox off bill and gave us a discount for the slow service.
Been trying to find a breakfast place after la Boulange closed down recently. Will have to keep looking. Food is okay, but never felt a sense of urgency from wait staff to serve us. Not that you should be rushing us, but make an effort to anticipate our needs and check on us if things are taking longer than usual.

Good food, big portion, good price. Perfect place for family eat out.
Service was great!!! Definitely recommend for everyone!

I am trying the lamb burger, for the first time, patty melt style… I have to say that it tastes heavenly!
Great looking little joint and friendly service. I will be coming back next time I’m on the neighborhood!

So far so good. It’s hard to find a place we can dine with a double twin stroller. Fitting in has become a problem so our requirements have changed.
This may not have been our 1^st choice as single people on the prowl in LA but now we look more for service, hospitality, and space, oh and food that doesn’t leave us in the toilet all day.
Even though we sat outside on a cold winter day in January, we had strong drinks, big portions and Positive, happy service which changes everything.
It does look like we are outside at a holiday inn in Phoenix but it’s working for where we are now. Thanks Fiddlers. We will be back.
