Wide Eyes Open Palms - Long Beach

Some menu items labeled as "vegan" may contain honey, despite honey production being harmful to bees. Therefore, honey cannot be considered a vegan ingredient.

I enjoy the coffee at this restaurant, but they seem to be unsure about what items are actually vegan. There was a cookie labeled as vegan that surprisingly contained honey in the product name. When I asked the barista for something vegan, they recommended the cookie to me. It wasn't until later when I read the sign more closely that I realized it wasn't truly vegan. I tried reaching out to them, but didn't receive a response. The other vegan bakery option nearby is not worth it. For better vegan options, I recommend going to Salud or Alder Sage across the street.

Happy staff. The Frittata is very good and the Matcha honey drink. One of the best places in the area. It comes with a price. Very recommended. I'll be back.

The owner takes pride in sourcing ingredients locally and avoiding generic suppliers like Sysco, resulting in a noticeable difference in taste. From the Frittata to the Chia Pudding to the Toast, each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. The staff seemed passionate and dedicated, making this restaurant a standout in the neighborhood. They also offer top-notch craft coffee. I wish Wide Eyes Open was a daily fixture in my neighborhood, but sadly, I am always on the move.

I can't believe I've never given this place an assessment. Literally one of the best spots ever. I've been since the day they opened and my family loves this place. We always get the Rosemary Latte made with the house oat milk. If you read your time reviews to see if this place is good, stop. Go there now and see how great this place is. One of our favorite spots in Long Beach.
