Such a cute little cafe tucked in a shopping strip mall! We popped in late Saturday morning for a coffee and pastry. I really wanted a toasty almond croissant in the mucky gloomy weather we were having. We walked in and sat at the coffee bar. The service is really friendly and prompt. They offered to warm up/toast my almond croissant...yum! It was gooey and full of flavor. It has a nice toasty crunch to it, which is exactly what makes me fall in love with this treat. I also ordered the Turkish Latte - which is essentially a latte with cardamom and honey - it will knock your socks off. I ordered a large and somehow downed that bad boy in a matter of minutes. Really really good! They do have a pretty nice breakfast menu, which I want to pop back in for and they are going to be offering gelato very soon! Stay posted...Ill be back for more!!

Nothing special. 2 stars for the decent coffee. The server was extremely friendly and attentive, refilling coffees and frequently asking how everyone was doing as people waited and waited and waited for their food. Very tiny place with Extremely slow kitchen. The kitchen doesnt seem to be able to handle the number of guests. No toast or jam selection, only sour dough and strawberry jelly. Bacon very poor quality. Food didnt taste bad, just very uneventful and limited menu. I probably didnt order properly. If you want something different for breakfast fare, check their menu, this might be your place. Cute antique decor.

I absolutely adore this place for weekend breakfast and brunch! Caffe Caldo has an old world vibe with a hint of steampunk and its fun just waiting and checking out how all the decor is set up (seriously, check out the lights and fans!). The owner puts his heart in this place and it shows. The staff is always super sweet and friendly and the food is AMAZING. It has a comfort food feel, but is very healthy and high quality. The ciabatta is crisp, the meatballs flavorful, the eggs always perfectly cooked... All the flavors just meld together beautifully. If you havent been here yet, you must check it out!

This is one of the best places in Huntington Beach for coffee. Ive lived here for 30 years so I know the area very well. I have a passion for coffee and ambiance of my "homes away from home," and Caldo is great. Great people. Great barista. Great owner. Ive been there a handful of times when Im down that way and have meet random friendly people every time. I personally go to a coffee shop for an experience and good coffee. Caldo has both. They close at 1 I think on weekdays which is a bummer since I have coffee meetings sometimes later but thats is small coffee shop business!

Let me start w it was my anniversary and I yelped and chose this place knowing my wife would love several items and figured Id find something. What we found was a GEM. Make no mistake this is not high menu item offering, but what they do offer is excellent and friendly service from the get go. Loved the Caldo House combo, french toast w lemon marsicipone and real maple syrup that has tones of honey..served on side, so you get savory bites..the potatoes wow..all was excellent. Great coffee house too. Wife loved her ham wrapped asparagus eggs Benedict.

By far, my favorite breakfast place in HB. Everyone at Caffe Caldo is, warm, friendly, and engaging. And the patrons are no exception. Just a great bunch of people with excellent food. My go-to favorites: The Steak and Eggs Special Herb Crusted Flat Iron Steak, 2 eggs, Crispy Home Fries, and sauteed mushrooms and tomatoes. Order a side of House Sauce (Hollandaise) to dup your potatoes in. Asparagus Vovo Eggs Benedict atop crisp ciabatta Asparagus spears and brown sugar ham Tell Richard Nathaniel sent you!

The waitress brought us water the very first time she visited the table! I cant remember the last time that happened! I really appreciated it. I ordered a side of eggs and toast but that was PLENTY to feed my appetite. The eggs were cheesy and the perfect texture. No dry or runny eggs here. The toast was also well done but not burned. My peppermint mocha was also delicious and not overly hot or sweet. Plus they draw hearts or flowers in the foam. The decor here is really interesting too! I LOVE this place!

This was our second visit. We waited quite a bit for the food. The coffee was decent however everything else was just not right. The acclaimed toast was black and bitter, the over easy eggs were running and the poached eggs was overdone. First time the food was just ok but reading previous reviews we thought that the next time will be better. I think we need to find another place for breakfast. Have to say waitresses were really nice.

Best eggs Benedict Ive ever had! I dont know what kind of magical seasoning they put on it, but the flavor is out of this world. Also their French Toast is amazing. It comes with a side of mascarpone and syrup for a perfect finishing touch. Their coffee is good. Warning, the food takes forever (like 45min) to come out. Also they have two kinds of stools to sit on. The bicycle stools are the most uncomfortable thing Ive ever sat on.

This is one of my favorite places in Orange County. A mix of Italian style coffee shop with some pretty amazing food options (Their chef is from Sicily). Espresso. Coffee. Sicilian pastries. They close early afternoon. Large parties and weekends can prove a challenge so temper your expectations, especially on weekends when they are slammed.

This is my local spot! Caffe Caldo has it all if youre looking for a local cafe that will draw you into becoming a "regular." The Italian cafe atmosphere, signature lattes (I recommend the Turkish latte and Zebra latte) and breakfast dishes leave no stone unturned.

REALLY great coffee and friendly service. I really enjoyed their Benedict Ciabatta and my girlfriend their frittata. Its a more European slant on food which can be a welcome change. Fast wifi, clean bathrooms. We loved it for breakfast. Highly recommended!

Love this place! Greatest staff, and atmosphere! Chef is wonderful, the Italian pastries are incredible....try the Kale special!! Butternut squash, kale, sauteed veggies, garlic, truffle oil, parmesan, two poached eggs!

Great Italian food. Pastries and Coffee in the front. A warm atmosphere, and the caffes design is very artsy. The wait is very long on the weekends due to thr small kitchen, but worth the wait.

The owner cares about every detail and the new chef (sicilian!) is just as passionate about the food. And the staff still manages to be low key and personable. Cant wait for a dinner menu!

While the food was good, the service was poor. There wasnt hardly anyone else there either. Just a lack of care by the server.

You will not find a better or more quality place than Caldo. The staff is amazing and the food cannot be beat.
