Crema's Take

This beloved neighborhood café in Carmichael feels like stepping into a friend's kitchen—the owner personally greets guests, and the staff's genuine warmth sets the tone for a leisurely morning or brunch. Beyond expertly crafted traditional drinks like their signature vanilla lattes, Lido shines with house-made pastries, scratch bread, and thoughtful dishes like their steak breakfast burritos, making it a destination for those who appreciate quality ingredients and care in every bite. It's the kind of dog-friendly, family-welcoming spot where you'll want to linger over coffee and conversation, whether you're catching up with friends or discovering why locals call it a hidden gem.

Outstanding... 5 star. Loved the cute little restaurant. Greated by the owner of the restaurant. She's so sweet. The food was exceptional. And the staff was also very kind & thoughtful. You must go and treat yourselves to this little cafe.

Lido’s is really the best kept secret! We had to include them in our hidden gem series near Sacramento. We LOVE having breakfast here! We’re limited to 30 seconds a video on here, so if you’d like to watch the full video, you can see it on our Instagram @the.foodienomads we get close ups of everything we ordered. If you love Lido’s, help support them by liking our video so that more people can find out about them and come give them a try!

I had a brunch here at Lido cafe this past July. Yup, it's been awhile and now I'm finalizing my draft review. The cafe in Fair Oaks gets a thumbs up from me though. It's the type of place is becoming extinct... family owned and operated, neighborhood signature vibes, simple good homemade food, and decent pricing. The hours are 7am-2pm Wednesday-Sunday. I dropped in on a late Sunday morning. The place was packed. Bustling with lots folks ranging from large generational families, solo diners, young teenagers with their friends on break to golden couples happily trudging along with their walkers. But even me and hubs could feel the sense of family ownership and welcoming neighborly vibes. Trust me, I don't get those vibes often. They had patio dining as well, but it was a bit hot for me to sit outside in July even with the shaded covering. But I'm a wimp regarding the summer heat. We sat inside. Comfortable and air conditioned. When it's a full house, it is loud and crowded. For folks with hearing aids, the tables along the walls are the best bet. I ordered an almond milk latte. I didn't have high hopes of anything spectacular, but I was wrong. It was deliciously smooth and creamy with an airy froth and espresso flavor. Darn delicious. One of the best I've ever tasted. I also ordered a half order of eggs benedict. Luv that they offered a half order, most places don't. The hollandaise sauce was smooth and the poached egg had a satisfying perfect yolk ooze. The flavors were ok overall. Hubs ordered an egg salad sandwich that came with fresh fried tortilla chips n salsa. No complaints from him. Another cool thing about the menu is that they offer doggie meals (for your fur babies). No lie. The meals average $4.95 and come with a water bowl. Dogs are served on the patio. Also if your dog needs to do his business, there is an ample strip of lawn with shade trees near the sidewalk in front of the parking lot.

Vanilla lates were a fave among our group of ladies that went in to travel. I had the Soup of the day and Half sandwich on RYE and the bread was so flavourful and seemed made in house. Salsa also made fresh. The butternut squash soup was very tasty and my ultimate fave. They even had a puppy menu. You can even call ahead for no wait for larger parties at least 30 mins ahead.

Cute spot, very friendly staff. Great looking dessert case. Meant to grab the cobbler or something to take home. Next time! Had the steak breakfast burrito with chipotle sauce and potatoes. The sauce has a good amount of spice to it. Ordered extra. Very big plate and took some home. I like a lot more flavor in my food but I think this place is perfect for what most people are looking for. Clean and well prepared fresh food.
