In early 2025, Superba Food + Bread will open a new restaurant and café at The Commons at Calabasas. It will be located next to Polacheck’s Jewelers.

Envisioned as an inviting gathering place, Superba Food + Bread is recognized for its seasonally driven, all-day menu and in-house bakery program crafted with the surrounding community in mind. Superba’s Calabasas restaurant will draw from that lineage, providing a place for family and friends to enjoy a quick coffee and pastry or linger over a relaxed meal that fits the restaurant’s coastal Southern California roots and culinary lifestyle.

Similar to its all-day sister restaurants in Venice and Hollywood, Superba Calabasas will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, with catering and delivery also available. Guests can expect freshly baked breads and pastries from Superba’s Bakehouse, signatures such as the Superba Grain Bowl and Hearth-Roasted Mary’s Half Chicken, in addition to new dishes distinct to Calabasas. A full beverage program featuring craft cocktails, wine, locally sourced beer, spritzes, as well as non-alcoholic options will be available to complement the menu.

Superba worked with award-winning Klein Agency, a local L.A. design company known for its innovative manufacturing techniques and singularly crafted spaces to bring the vision for the 2,500-square-foot restaurant and 1,500-square-foot patio to life. Details such as 27-foot-high ceilings, stone and marble tabletops and an interplay of textures such as stucco, aluminum and vintage reclaimed redwood were inspired by European cafes and bring an edgy vibe to Calabasas. The welcoming all-day space, with warm tones, lush greenery and an expansive patio, reflects the relaxed nature of the Superba experience.

Superba is a collection of all-day restaurants and cafés from American Gonzo Food Corp., each designed to be a neighborhood gathering place for its surrounding community. Fueled by Superba Bakehouse, Superba is known for its standout breads and pastry program with baked goods a cornerstone of the menu. The original Superba Food + Bread opened in 2014 in Venice and quickly became a staple for locals to pick up freshly baked bread, indulge in flaky chocolate croissants over morning coffee, or gather with friends for a seasonally driven meal featuring ingredients from local farms and Superba’s backyard garden. The restaurant has since opened multiple locations across Los Angeles. At Superba Food + Bread Venice and Hollywood, guests can expect all-day dining with Southern California-influenced dishes such as Superba’s Grain Bowl, Early Girl Tomato Gazpacho, Rigatoni Bolognese, Fried Chicken Dinner for two, and much more. Superba Snacks + Coffee locations in Pasadena and North Hollywood offer morning pastries and coffee alongside a daytime-only menu of seasonal favorites.

Rendering of the proposed “The Commons Lane” renovations proposed by Caruso

In May, Caruso Affiliated submitted its “The Commons Lane” plan to the City of Calabasas to make enhancements to the 25 year old The Commons at Calabasas.

According to information on The Commons Lane website at thecommonslane.com, most of The Commons will remain the same. The plan “will enhance a small portion of the west side of the center” and includes new shops and restaurants with ample space for outdoor dining. The new area will also include pedestrian walking areas and new apartment homes.

The proposal includes up to 119 residential units. Most of the units will replace the Regency movie theater at The Commons. Ten percent of the units will be reserved for residents who meet certain income requirements.

The plan also includes hundreds of new parking spaces and separates residential parking from the surface parking area used by the community.

Timing at this point is to be determined and is contingent on review by the City of Calabasas.
