"Such a wonderful cafe experience! The staff greeted me so warmly the moment I walked in, and their attitude was genuinely kind and welcoming. You can really feel the positive vibe here. The coffee was delicious and perfectly made, and the pastries were fresh and so tasty. I’ll definitely be coming back — highly recommended!"

"This is one of the places where I don’t think you should exprience the food, but the environment and service as well. Ellie’s Table is one of the most easiest 5/5’s, I’ve given. And for great reasons, I have ordered the Chillaquilles, and at first I thought it didn’t have beans. And the small black toppings in it were olives, but they were black beans. Turns out as a bean hater, this is the restaurant were the beans were edible, which for a bean hater I would’ve never thought in my cognitive brain! But the Chillaquilles had the perfect texture, crispy, perfectly soft, and great flavor. The beans are out of this world, they don’t even feel like beans, they got perfect with the Chillaquilles! (Recommended choice to non bean eaters, ask a side of beans on your Chillaquilles, and puts some one and try it at least! Trust me you’ll thank a little Birdy later! And got a crossiant, would make any Parisian cry in happiness, simply soft buttery, and layered with flavor, and texture! beautiful scenery within San Juan Capistrano along with a nice stylish modern inside, on an early 20th century house. Overall if you’re in Irvine or San Juan Capistrano, I highly recommend Ellie’s Table. The history, the food, and culture Dosen’t make it a good restaurant but a great restaurant! And great service from the team! Shout out to Manny, you’re the one and only man!"

"A favorite spot for me and my girlfriends to go have breakfast. We come here on a girls trip every year and we have to hit up ellie's! We typically get the eggs benedict, oatmeal and hot cocoa or a milk steamer"

"Ellie's Table serves a mean plate of chilaquiles made best with an egg on top. Great service, ambiance and delicious food and a solid selection of baked goods easily make this business a place you can come to over and over."

"Absolutely phenomenal cinnamon buns , chilaquiles, and breakfast burritos! Friendly counter service, will be back. Edit August 2025: We ordered catering for a baby sprinkle and the food and service was phenomenal. We had everything delivered and we loved all of the recommendations Samantha gave us! Definitely will work with this restaurant again!"
