When you hear that Griddle Café’s slogan is, “Come get buttered up, and you will have good luck!” you may think it is the weirdest thing you’ve ever heard. Get buttered up? Really? Well, it may sound lame/cheesy/corny/displeasing (insert your favorite adjective here), but once you actually visit the restaurant, you realize it just sort of works. After all, more than 3,000 Yelp reviews can’t be wrong! Can you believe more than 3,000 people have taken the time to actually write a review of one breakfast spot?
Be Prepared to Wait
The first thing you need to know is there is going to be a line, especially if you go during the week when everyone is trying to get fed before work. If you can wait until 9:00am, or a bit later, your chance of getting seated fast increases substantially.
You should also know that although it is only 8 miles from the Holiday Inn Burbank-Media Center, traffic can be killer getting into West Hollywood during rush hour. This is another reason to wait a little longer to venture this way. If you want to avoid a busy parking structure, park in the lot off Fairfax right before Sunset. The lot is behind Rite-Aid, and you can actually enter through the back of the restaurant.
