La Escalonia combines a plant nursery with a café, garden, and small shop, and reviewers often treat the setting itself as part of the visit. The nursery carries plants ranging from succulents and flowers to bonsai and fruit trees, with plant prices described as reasonable.

The café receives positive comments for breakfast, fresh juices, coffee, cookies, desserts, and other dishes, while the attached shop offers natural oils, body products, artisanal goods, and local products. Visitors repeatedly describe the gardens as peaceful and pleasant for spending time.

One review raises an important food-allergy concern after a pasta dish apparently contained peanuts that were not identified on the menu. Aside from that incident, the supplied feedback is largely positive about the plants, garden atmosphere, food, and service.
