What coffee shop in Los Angeles makes the best omelettes?

Question

I don't know about you all, but I am real picky when it comes to enjoying a perfect omelette. My preference is either a full 3 egg omelette with chedder, mushroom, scallions, or just a moist chedder omelette with an English muffin and fruit.

I have ordered many omelettes, but sorry to say most of them have been lousy. The best cheese omelettes I've ever had were in Laughlin, NV and La Jolla. Many omelettes I have ordered come out as a dried out brown crusty dish that is like a burnt piece of parchment paper, even though I will order it "soft please." 

I have been told my omelettes I make in the kitchen are excellent, but I feel that I have not mastered it, but much better than what I have been served in places around town.

Making a perfect omelette is an art, believe me, they are not forgiving. Must have the right pan, the perfect heat and time so it's not undercooked or over. Many chefs will ask a newbie cook to make an omelette as a test. 

Can we get a perfect omelette in LA?

Joan O'Groats, on Pico Blvd. in West LA (near the Rancho Park golf course) has amazing omelettes. They will not overcook it. There are many amazing delicious menu items here (pecan waffles, homemade biscuits, spicy turkey sausage, steel-cut oats) but the Grandma's omelette (with bacon inside) stands out.
Also for weekend brunch, La Serenata Gourmet (also on Pico near the Westside Pavilion) makes great omelettes with your choice of sauce and beans and tortillas. Mushroom omelettes with green sauce = yum!!
Both places are not the cheapest cheap eats but they are worth it.

Try Lulu's on Detroit and Beverly.  They are only open for breakfast and lunch.  Their omelette includes 3 or 4 diffrent toppings standard and they have great options.  I would definately try it.

Nicks is great for the Denver Omlett and the Ham and eggs. AMAZING with the home meade salsa. Also, if ur near Santa Monica, go to the Omlett Parlor. They have some of the best omletts ever (hence the name) both places will serve you well.
