“I have been going to Porto's since the 1980's..the one in Glendale. How elated I was with having them being in Northridge where I live. The food is terrific and the lines go fast due to a tremendous quick system they have. The catering for parties has never let us down and people you have invited that never have experienced Portos are thrilled. The cakes are delicious. What I do miss is not having the individual cake slices for purchase so you can experience the taste. They only have the neapolitan, Parisian, and carrot for slices. I've seen the menu change over time and do miss some of the items.“

“Hidden coffee and pastry gem in the Heart of Beverly Hills. Definitely a great date spot 🤫 Do not miss the chance to visit if you are a tourist 😋 For locals try their Salmon Bagel reminds me of New York 🗽
P.S. also they have luxury and bougie cakes 🤪“

“Beautiful place, delicious food and great atmosphere. I really wanted to visit Bostan for such a long time. My family and I enjoyed the atmosphere, the music and the cleanliness of this place. When I ordered, they didn’t have one ingredient available, and it was kind of sad. I had to change my order completely. One reason to visit again, and try those!“

“Enjoyed our breakfast, very friendly staff, large portions, homemade bread and excellent service!“

“Our Ubber driver David recommended we check it out. It did not disappoint. we ordered 4 different savoury pasteries, not knowing what any of them were. All were delicious!“

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED“

“First time studying in this gem. Will definitely be returning! Not only do they have great coffee, yummy pastries, good study space, but overall great customer service. Johnny made it easy to navigate the menu and very attentive to ensuring my study experience went well“

“I recently found this Vegan bakery, and I loved it! They have a good variety of pan dulce. They also have very good vegan tamales. I fully recommend this place.“

“💖 We were just talking about how PERFECT your cupcakes are! The sweetness ratio is absolutely idyllic because the sugar does not overpower the gorgeous flavor. Worth every penny!!! 🧁“

“I think this German coffee shop is very charming. It’s worth stopping by here and try the pastries, especially the Berliner. You might get addicted, they’re incredibly delicious! Overall, it’s a lovely coffee shop with great customer service.“

“**A sweet slice of heaven in Santa Monica!** Junior Cookies is an absolute *gem*. I came in for the cookies (which are AMAZING – warm, gooey, and perfectly crisp on the edges), but I stayed for the whole vibe. Their ice cream is ultra creamy with rich, dreamy flavors that pair perfectly with the cookies—highly recommend making your own cookie cream with ice cream with cookies! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee is. It’s bold, smooth, and just what I needed to balance out the sugar rush. Honestly, it’s rare to find a cookie shop where the coffee actually stands out, but Junior Cookies gets it right. Best coffee, best cookies, best matcha, and best ice cream in la! The place is super cute inside, with a cozy neighborhood feel and friendly staff who seem genuinely happy to be there. You can tell everything is made with love. The cookies and recipes are unique. 5 star bakery in LA. If you're in Santa Monica, **don’t miss this spot**. Whether you’re craving dessert, a caffeine fix, or just want to treat yourself, Junior Cookies delivers!“

“Great cookiesss tryna get points lol“

“My absolute new favorite restaurant! We were visiting family in LA from Chicago and they took us here, I ended up going three times in my one week visit. Cheese stuffed zaatar and the sojouk kachopuri were my favorite and the garlic chicken wrap was my husbands. Honestly everything we had was delicious and the kids kept asking for the pepperoni pizza and mini pizzas.“

“The food is so high quality and the bagels are perfect. Can’t forget about that beautiful bacon. It melts in your mouth. It’s also a great atmosphere and food arrives fast. This is a must go again for me. 100 percent recommended by me!🤤👍“

“I love the ice cream and desserts at this shop.“

“I come by here at least once a week, the bread and pastries are baked fresh daily and the workers always treat you like family. It doesn't look like much from outside but it's my go-to local bakery. I would highly recommend the jalapeno bread with creme cheese, but come early because they run out often by noon.“

“We had an amazing breakfast! Definitely coming back! Ingredients are really good quality, fruits were really ripe and fresh, scrambled eggs were so gentle and nice, potatoes were great too. The flakey french toast was to die for. Thank you for such good quality of food. I would like to try all their other stuff as well!“

“The blackberry crunch toast was amazing. Great service, friendly staff & nice location.“

“The dessert box was a big hit even by seasoned bakers. The kids claimed their favorites first. I highly recommend saving your host time and worry. Take the best. My host had a sneak bite and energized with a huge smile to greet her guests with a huge smile knowing the grand finale was going to be stunning and delicious! BIG HIT“

“My first time trying Mediterranean food and what can I say, the dishes were authentic and so delicious, especially the Fattoush Salad . Loved it so much. I will definitely recommend to my friends.“

“This is a superb bakery for deserts, cakes & pastries in Woodland Hills! Cake was fresh and delicious. This is a business that cares about their customers. Special Thank you to Tim, professional. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Delicious food! Great service!“

“My friends and I stopped by this Crumbl inside NoHo west so I can get their holiday theme cookie which is just a cookie with m&m. This store isn't that big inside but it works for them.

We found parking in the lot where the store is at. We just ordered from the little tablet since there was only one woman working and she was doing other stuff. The price is on the higher end but my friend used his reward points. Once the order was placed, the lady came to put it in a box for me. The cookie was alright, I think it needed more m&m“

“Stopped by Chaumont Bakery & Café in Beverly Hills and got the guava cream cheese danish. It was excellent: nice flaky, crisp layers that held together well, with a balanced filling of bright, tangy guava and smooth cream cheese. The flavors worked perfectly together.
The place is clean, bright, and smells amazing when you walk in. Staff was friendly and quick; they warmed it up for me without asking. The display has a good range of croissants and other pastries, and prices feel fair for the quality! Coffee was solid too.
It’s a dependable spot with high standards—definitely worth going back for this pastry or to try others.“

“Hi how are you a chocolate frosting cake with butter cream on balloons from grandmas Sandy’s birthday for me yes“

“Baklava by the pound. So good!“

“Tasty goodies and breads nobody would ever suspect as being gluten free. Place is perfect!“

“delicious fresh bread which is baked daily. great Italian products and their cheesecake is amazing.“

“Inside, there is only room to order food and buy bread. Their cinnamon roll is pretty good, but served cold. Their everything cookie is delicious. There is ample seating outdoors for brunch, and servers are nice. The breakfast sandwich is good, and their standouts are shakshuka (absolutely delicious!) and the chai latte. Their vanilla latte is also well bodied and just sweet enough.“

“Friendly cozy place. Best croissants!!“

“I went here for the first time and ordered the beef, and hot dog piroshki they were great. Ashley was a great hostess and got my order ready I would come back and try the other treat here. There is no sit down.

Kid-friendliness: Ashley was a good hostess.“

“Went to Vanak Restaurant and Bakery for a Persian brunch and had such a great experience. We ordered Kale Pacheh, a classic Persian brunch staple, and it did not disappoint — flavorful, comforting, and very well prepared.

The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Portions were generous — easily enough for two people — and the food was genuinely tasty and satisfying.

Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Persian brunch in a welcoming, warm environment. We’ll definitely be back.“

“This is your typical family owned bakery where you are treated as family, very good bread, fresh coffee is served in the early hours of the morning, prices are reasonable, parking space is not always a good thing since the bakery shares the shopping with other businesses. I will definitely keep it as a morning stop.“

“review_stars 01/04/2025 - Ray Beker The Best Lahmajune in All of Southern California. They have Zahtar Maneishe. Cheese Beorek. Spinach Beorek. Spicy Cheese Beorek. Meat Beorek. Potato Beorek. Special order Mini Party Sizes . The Best prices. No order is too big or small.“

“One of my favorite donut places in the valley!! Donuts are always fresh and soft, the ham and cheese croissants are delicious, and they have some of the best Vietnamese coffee!! Not to mention that the owner, Larry, is the nicest person ever!! He had such great stories to tell and even gave my husband and I some free goodies!! We love this place!!“

“The lavash is wonderful and without all the extra added ingredients, pure and simple!“

“Uzzi’s has delicious cookies including my favorite the strawberries n’cream and also an assortment of marshmallows to choose from. The vanilla chocolate swirl marshmallows are often requested by my daughter swirled with Belgian chocolate mmmm. Quality mostly organic whole ingredients! Don’t hesitate! Try them!“

“The atmosphere is very much like grab n' go, but if you need a place to sit and quickly enjoy some food it's good too! The tamales are good, the pan dulce is good and the champurrado is delicious! The champurrado is not too sweet which I really appreciate coming from a family of diabetics. Pricing is fair, they bake everything there so it's definitely worth it!“

“Grab a few of your favorites, they even have fresh pan de sal and food to go!“

“Best baked choco 🍩 .. mmm“

“Talk about a whole in the wall. Bakery is kinda hidden, you'll miss it if you don't pay attention. They have a bolillo sandwich called guateque. Bolillo with beans, queso fresco, asada, jalapeños & salsa on the side. It is delicious anytime of day. Their pan dulce is also good. They have mini & regular size pan dulce & bolillo. I do have to mention that the place is really small, so is their parking. I suggest you call your order in for the guateques since they are always busy. I know you will love the guateque de asada! I haven't tried the guateque de huevo con chorizo yet. That'll be the next one I try. Enjoy!“

“I’ve been coming here for pastries and I’m never disappointed. Everything is always fresh, soft, and full of flavor. You can tell they truly care about what they make. This place has such a comforting, high quality feel. I always leave happy. 😊“
