I had lunch on a Sunday afternoon with friends and we each bought food from different places. My favorite is the Poke Bowl, but my friend ordered the Taco Bowl and she said it was delicious. The portions were a lot, neither of us finished our food. The Poke Bowl was a little over $20 and definitely worth it for the quality. Sunday was a very hot day so we didn’t struggle to find a table which can be difficult on more crowded days. We tried the desserts but I wasn’t a fan of either of the ones we ordered: apple crumble and a mango moose pastry puff. I plan to return many times in the future, the ambiance is wonderful and nothing beats a stroll through the garden after a good meal.

I really like the expansive menu here. Lots of options that weren’t overwhelming to choose from. The salads are fantastic. My poke bowl was delicious and the perfect meal for a full day of walking. The generous amount of food is well worth the price.

I love their spicy turkey burger! My husband enjoyed the vegetarian options, tofu shawarma and bowl. We’re looking forward to our next visit to see what’s blooming in March.

Came during the week, no waiting upon arrival. Order the chicken tacos and it was just ok, nothing great. My daughter had the ham & cheese sandwich with fries and that was also just ok. I think the already made Sushi in the plastic containers towards the register counters would’ve been the best option or choice.
This place is like a Cafeteria, you grab a serving tray and grab your items and pay at the end, and you also can seat wherever you like.
After your meal you must return your serving tray with dishes to the specified location.
This place is a grab and go.
Seating outside was actually nice.

The food at 1919 Café was fantastic and surprisingly affordable compared to similar dining experiences near LA. I loved dining on the patio with a beautiful view of the gardens it really added to the experience. The carrot cake was moist and delicious, and my tacos were packed with flavor. A perfect spot for a great meal in a stunning setting!

Ive been here 3 times. I appreciate the quality. I think the food is very good, and most of the patrons are civil and are respectful from what I have observed. The staff have always been accommodating. I know I can go here and enjoy time with family or friends. We tend to go for lunch and can unwind after walking about the gardens and then perhaps after eating have an espresso or aperitif. Followed by perusal through the gift shop.
I enjoy being among people of culture and appreciate Art, Music, and Nature.

We went to the 1919 cafe today for lunch. I really liked the selection there, they had a lot of vegetarian options. The food was very reasonably priced for the servings. The pizza slice is about 1/4 a pizza for $9. The Food was very tasty

Great place to fuel up while checking out the Huntington. Cafeteria style with a bunch of different types of food like Mexican, pizza, etc. All pretty good at a good price. I liked my taco bowl more than expected. Heard the sushi and burger is pretty good too. Sweets were the only miss, they all taste the same (just sugar.) plenty of seating both indoors and out. Also you get a discount if you volunteer!

Some gluten free options, I had the 3 tacos, which were great. Gluten free potato chips also available. You don’t have to pay for Park admission to go to the diner according to our guide.

What a disappointment to eat at this cafe, after such a wonderful experience at the botanical gardens. My friend and I both ordered hamburgers with side of fríes and vegetables. There were many other customers who ordered before us and it took a long time. One short order cook and with a major attitude to prepare the orders. To place an order is confusing while there were two women standing who could have assisted. One more issue, super expensive. Huntington Garden get your act together there are so many wonderful restaurants in the area!!!
