breakfast in the SFV

Any ideas for a good breakfast place in the Valley?

    Agreed! Nat's rocks!

      Nat's Early Bite on Burbank and Hazeltine. Excellent home-style cooking, very casual but comfortable diner.

        A somewhat Italian version of breakfast and lunch would be Pane Dolce, on Ventura just east of Woodman in Sherman Oaks. Opens on Sundays at 8:30, other days at 6:30 with Saturdays at 7:00.
        Really do not care for Marmalade, Cordiale, Jinkys or Dupars, yet none are terrible. But on that same list you could also add Brent's Deli in Northridge.

          O. M. G. was pane dolce awful. Had a turkey pesto sandwich. Turkey was from a turkey roll, pesto looked like greenish mayonaisse, and the cranberries were craisins right out of the bag. Avoid.

          I was going to say Jinky's, too.

          Jinky's Cafe - (818) 981-2250 - 14120 Ventura Blvd, Sherman Oaks, CA

          I have only been to the Sherman Oaks location. There appear to be locations in West Hollywood and Santa Monica too. :)

            The Ranchero omelette at La Fogata on Van Nuys Blvd. is awfully good!

              Depends what and where you want... the SFV is vast...

              Hugo's
              Jinky's
              Du-Par's (hit or miss)
              Marmalade Cafe if you want a more upscale feel
              Cafe Cordiale
              More than Waffles
              Four'n'Twenty

                GF and I tried More Than Waffles last weekend for the first time. It was really crowded but we only had to wait about 15 min. for a table. I had their Ultimate Waffles (with asst. berries/whipped cream) which was very good but I was hungry and could have eaten 2 orders. I think the topping would have been better spread over 4 instead of 2 small waffles! GF had a Ham & Cheese Omlette that came with the same size waffle as my order and pronounced it all good! I didn'd steal 1 of her waffles, no I didn't!
