“Get a delicious linch while dealing with parking tickets- DOT is right next door ?Love their turkish eggs and hubs likes their sandwiches. I adore black sesame lattes and theirs has a double shot of espresso ?Free parking in structure off of catalina when validated by them. Otherwise street parking on weekend is pretty easy too“
“AMAZING Expect waiting outside, party of 2 was 20-25 min Saturday afternoon and cannot call in to be added to it. Everything on the menu is great but the French toast, pork belly fried rice, and strawberry tea were the best. Limited seating and one restroom but highly recommend.“
“Absolutely lovely place! Great atmosphere, great guests, great staff!Lovely food freshly made - great barista. By the way - excellent house blend!I’ve had some food and drink for really reasonable cost.Colourful yet toned and modern interior. A lot of space that everyone can find a spot for themselves.Great job Liberation!!!“
“Looking for a sweet treat to cool your mouth after eating a scalding ramen or udon? A cozy atmosphere to study with a friend? This is the place for you! Ordered the matcha waffle cone, and it was the perfect balance between sweet and earthy. The vibes were great and the service was greater! They ran out of ice cream as they were serving me and gave me a slightly smaller portion along with a full refund! Highly recommend(Excuse the image, I just couldn’t wait to dig in)“
“If this hasn't been written yet, this shop has incredible coffees that is worth your frequent visits. If it's any testament, Frank La is the 2024 United States Barista Champion. Coffee and hospitality is incredible, it would actually be a mistake not to come “
“One of the best Mexican spots in the states!Been blown away by their chilaquiles & machaca burrito! Literally the best chilaquiles I’ve had in the states and I’ve had over 30 different spots from, Cali to New Mexico to Texas.Service is great as well! Highly recommend if you’re looking for the highest of quality Mexican food.“
“Parking sucks very bad. Super professional hospitable staff. Clean bathroom. NO WIFI !!!! ample seating. Beautiful ethereal inspiring decor. Yummy coffee & pastries. Bad ass background music all the time. Will definitely return & recommend!“
“Great experience!!! From a friendly staff to the delicious coffee (Iced tres leches coffee) and cozy atmosphere. This hidden gem is by far one of my fav coffee shops in East Hollywood. I can't wait to try their pesto sandwich next. I highly recommend this spot for your next coffee fix :)“
“Recommended. I came by. There’s a kiosk to order and a cashier. I ordered the garlic bagel they are known for and the breakfast Becky. There’s an outdoor seating area as well as indoors. They have a merchandise wall in case you want to buy anything. Also a fridge section that has drinks. The kitchen is easily viewable to see what’s going on. The bagel was great. Also the breakfast Becky with its bacon and sauce. I really liked it.“
“This is actually a review for Homegirl's catering service: I hired Homegirl to cater my book launch at the University of Southern California. Nadine was super easy to work with in planning out the kinds of foods I wanted for my event. Abel did an excellent job finding our venue and setting up a delicious spread. I got turkey sandwiches, roast beef sandwiches, and vegan sandwiches. Everything was delicious on fresh bread baked by Homegirl. We also had agua frescas, hummus, and salad. The hummus was actually so popular that I barely got to try any. My guests ate it all! Note to self: order extra hummus next time. Putting on an event is time consuming and stressful, but Homegirl made the food portion of my event easier to manage. I highly recommend them. They will be at the top of my list for future catering events.“
“Blue Lounge is an amazing lounge to sit and enjoy Shisha. They have a large variety of tobacco flavors and all pipes are "Regals" unless you choose a different specialty pipe they offer. This place is safe, clean and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Plenty of lighted parking out front and a large outdoor patio with heaters and seating outback. I love smoking here and will continue to visit GG and team!“
“I was in the area for a tire and in desperate need of coffee. I asked the barista which to get and they recommended the horchata latte, I got it with half the sweetener, iced and it was perfect. I even splurged and got a the tomato & mozzarella empanada (also recommend by the barista) chefs kiss! Came with a chipotle sauce of some kind and so fresh. I also opted for the spinach, egg and cheese empanada which was also delicious. Will definitely be back when in the area.“
“My coffee was just okay- but it was also a better price than most. This place is ADORABLE though. The little red and white striped umbrellas make it hard to miss- even tho I did. Lolll - (it’s sort of hidden on a side street) I would defs go back.Parking: If this place gets popular- Parking could become a challenge. It’s a residential neighborhood.“
“Chorizo Croissant was served cold unfortunately, flavor was nice but hard to enjoy it in it's a solid cold form state.The vanilla lattes syrup was a bit too sweet for my liking. Definitely will come here again though to give a proper 2nd chance as the ambiance and aesthetic are really comfortable and welcoming.“
“I came about 2 months ago to grab some breakfast for the fam and I have been obsessed ever since then. Everything I've tried so far has not disappointed, every time I come I get something different and it always hits the spot! Portion sizes are perfect and affordable.The service is amazing as well! I love this place and I highly recommend anyone to try it out.“
“Everything time you come down to Griffins Observatory you have to came to The Trails for there few goodies especially their lavender shortbread cookie! That's what we ordered and Avocado Sandwich. Their sandwiches are bountiful like you can see the picture I can explain it just few words you got to come here and try it. Service are very friendly and the environment is very cute and planted seating area.“
“Pleasant vibe for breakfast in good location on Sunset. Very efficient, warm and welcoming staff. That’s important. Disappointed by the biscuit and hashbrowns. But excellent coffee! I like espresso and this one is very good. Large menu. They also have vegan dishes.Kid-friendliness: It is clear that this place would be a good pick with kids. Relaxed.A lot of choices. And pancakes!“
“What a delicious restaurant with authentic Ukrainian food. We traveled here from the Bay Area and were shocked to find a place that served only Ukrainian dishes. We got the varenyky with cabbage, borscht, Syrniki with custard, holubtsi , kompot (juice from berries) and nalisniki (crepe with chicken and mushroom. Everything was perfect. The service was also great, the server was attentive and he always made sure we enjoyed everything. Everything was very clean and well decorated. I love the Ukrainian music as well !! :)“
“I have accidentally found the greatest toast in all of America. I was here to meet some friends for an event and thought I’d pop in for a quick bite. I ordered the avocado toast thinking it would be an unremarkable snack. Have you ever experienced something so above and beyond expectation you wonder if you’re on a hidden camera show? This toast is that good. Toppings were fresh, seasoning was on point, and the toast was perfectly soft but toasty. Also ordered the Michelle Wi which lemonade and black tea. Great atmosphere, really friendly staff, nice patio and neighborhood parking nearby. Would it be rude if I ordered another toast? Actually considering it.“
“Love that the pastries here are always fresh! Great croissants. Good espresso drinks. I like that they have a seasonal espresso to try, as an espresso lover who appreciates light roast espresso.Pourovers are okay. I don't know if it's because they are so busy or because of the kinds of beans they use, but many times I find them to not be my favorite. They seem to be worse during rush hour so I think it's an execution thing. Love that they have multiple bean options, I recommend going with one of the "darker" ones as they taste fruitier to me, Marus lightest roasts tend to be sour IMO.Also they need have some restrictions on dogs here. I've had so many dogs sniffing me, trying to eat my food, or literally jump on me. I came to a cafe, not a dog park.“
“A good amount of tables inside and a few on the sidewalk outside. Order at the counter! Full coffee bar and a menu of breakfast/brunch and lunch items. I had the mushroom and crispy polenta salad and it was absolutely delicious. Lots of GF and Vegan options.“
“Josh is super nice and welcoming! He opened exactly at 7am and he even put an umbrella by the order window so that people won’t get wet by rain while ordering or waiting! I definitely will be back and I absolutely enjoyed my iced vanilla latte!“
“All foods I have tried here are very fresh, and people are always so welcoming. I especially like the strawberry matcha latte, squeezed orange juice, croissant ham sandwich, tuna kimbap, and the chicken salad. The turkey sandwich is great, too, as it has many fresh cut veggies inside, but I would recommend croissant sandwich over it as I just personally like the bread part being croissant better. There are seats inside the cafe, and although I have not eaten inside, it rather looked spacious.“
“There is reason why this place rating is so high! Food is excellent, the signature French toast is a must, even my friend who doesn’t eat sugary food likes it! And the service is just amazing, they have the best employees! I left my bag( which hundreds of cash and everything in it) and only remembered it after 3 hrs! But I retrieved my bag from the lady serviced is her name is Maddison, after they already closed for an hr! I can’t tell you how touched I was by the way she went out of her way to help me (a stranger) solve problems! That’s definitely the place you would want to visit again again and again!“
“We had a meeting iver brunch outside. First time trying the place and I was not disappointed. Had a difficult time choosing which one to get because I was told that almost everything on the menu is great. The Thai Omelette was good too. The staff was friendly and attentive. They also bus your plates out right away after finishing your meal haha.“
“When I came in here it felt like home! There is local art on the walls, the ambiance gives me the real La that I grew up with. The coffee is GOOD. The service is GREAT. The music was a vibe. Whether you come here to do some work or just to stop in for a coffee, it will all be worth it!!“
“The Sycamore Kitchen was such a delight, the space is really cute, the service was amazing (super friendly & very quick/efficient), the food is delicious (great portions for the cost, and tasted great), and the coffee was tasty.We had the Jerusalem Bowl & Eggs Benedict, both tasted very good & were sizable portions.Def will be back.“
“Best meal we had in LA! Visiting from New Mexico and my wife and I enjoyed every bite of food and sip of wine from start to finish. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and each wine we tasted was unique and delicious. Inside of the restaurant is beautifully put together. Can’t wait to return! Excellent job Stir Crazy!!!“
“I had their Tiramisu cake slice. Kinda dry. Staff was more interested in having their own conversations than taking my order. I felt like I waited forever but probably was more like 5 minutes for them to finally take my order. I also had their chocolate chip cookies. Definitely delicious.“
“Love their speciality drinks and fun breads and pastries. I got the curry pan and the strawberry sakura latte and both were really good. The floral and berry flavors worked nicely with the coffee but the sakura flavor wasn’t super strong. Pretty centrally located in Little Tokyo and the staff are really nice.There were a few tables inside but I took my order to go.“
“Came here on a weekend after a cruise. Got the breakfast burrito and it was great. The distribution of the ingredients inside the burrito was even and there was a decent amount of bacon inside. I wish their salsa was more spicy though since I think that would have made a good addition to the burrito. I didn't get guac so can't say if it would have made a good addition but I think that the burrito without it was great.“
“Amazing museum restaurant. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations, but the food and service exceeded my expectations. The squash pasta has a Nerano style feel with pumpkin flowers on top. The tuna carpaccio was good with crispy garlic fries, but it was too salty. But I enjoyed it so much. I Will visit again.“
“Do you want to pet and hang around a whole bunch of friendly cats? Come here and sip some coffee while you do. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, caring, and helpful. We were on vacation and away from our pets, and a visit here just warmed our hearts.“
“The açaí bowls they have are absolutely delicious! They serve the food very fresh and fast, the ambiance is very chill and relaxed. Found this place on accident looking for bowls in the area & im so glad I did. Will 100% be coming back. The tea is amazing too.“
“Great, very casual breakfast and lunch restaurant very close to LAX. We arrived home very late and stayed overnight at the LAX Hyatt regency. The Original Rinaldi's is on the same side of the street and less than one block from the Hyatt Regency. We did not want an expensive hotel breakfast. Walked in to Rinaldi's and got a very warm welcome. They have different coffees so we tried the iced Vietnamese coffee in recognition of our completed trip. The coffee was terrific. Breakfast items were fresh, tasty, and healthy. Got a bottle of Langer's OJ to wash it down - cold and refreshing. Chatted with the nice lady that took our order. Excellent way to enjoy a reasonably priced breakfast or lunch near the airport. Or, not a bad idea to pre order food and take it on your flight.“
“Came back for a sit down lunch one day- ordered the turkey pesto sandwich. It is beyond good!! The bread is so fresh and buttery/salty. I also tried the poppy oatmeal cookie- I personally wasn't a fan. The sandwiches and bread are divine though. Can't wait for my next trip.“
“One of my favorite eateries in the world. I’m from France and this is one of the few places that is as indulgent as home with their baked goods. They made me a beautiful birthday cake years ago despite an unusual flavor request. Their biscuit-bun burger is delicious and the terrace is an awesome cozy spot to hang out. A must try if you’re in the area!“
“The most delicious breakfast sandwich I've ever had. So many vegan/veggie options for my friend too. Next time I'ma have the yogurt granola and the chocolate Abuelita. The vibes are perfect too - beautiful art, cozy indoors, fresh plants “
“Oh man, Grace Cafe is my go to. The food is flavorful and the service is one of a kind! I highly recommend the breakfast burritos, their hot sauce on that burritos is a match made in heaven. You will always be greeted with a smile when Grace is there!“
“Besides the delicious coffees, pastries and in my particular case, the breakfast burrito, Zweet Cafe has the comfort level you expect from a trusted friend. Whether you're grabbing a quick takeout or hanging out to kill time, the staff is incredibly accommodating and friendly. It's my new "go-to" for that morning pick-me-up. Like a good neighbor...Zweet Cafe is there"“
“The staff are smiling and have very good customer service.Also, the breakfast inside the restaurant was clean and had an American atmosphere, and the breakfast was pretty good.Crispy bacon is inside the omelet. You can add salt or ketchup to your taste. The salad was delicious with fresh arugula and lettuce.“
“This is a great spot to refuel for your day at the office. They have lots of drink options, and a wide variety of snacks too. I was surprised at how inexpensive the treats were! My banana bread with chocolate and pecans was less than $3! It was a small piece, but well made and just the right size for an afternoon snack.“
“What a great breakfast/lunch spot! It's definitely a local spot. What doesn't go unnoticed is the amazing customer service! The vibe of this place is very welcoming! I have to note that all the ingredients are so fresh. I ordered a miso glaze salmon bowl and if you look at the image you'll see how big of a salmon pc I got! It was just enough greens and rice for a hearty meal! I also got their like a lady juice and it was perfect with this meal!Definitely will be back and I love that the walls have outlets so it's a good place to get some work done as well!They do have parking but it is in a plaza so it does get busy. There is a lot of street parking close by.“
“It’s been years since i last stopped by before I moved to Chicago. Can’t leave without having my boba. I grew up in the K-Town District. You don’t always have a chance to come back home to visit.Kid-friendliness: You can get your kid ice cream, Oreo boba.“
“I had left the ER in Santa Monica at 10:30pm desperately wanting a good coffee. Churros Caliente was the only place open. Something frustrating about West LA is everything closes by 9 ish.The service ,as soon as I walked in, was helpful without being overly enthusiastic. The waiter was spot on in his recommendation for me.Ordered Cafe con Leche. And a stuffed Churro. Both absolutely satisfied and soothed my tastes..I was delighted by this little cafe. Did I mention the music? Salsa on TV large enough to be part of Cafe without being obtrusive.Im also happy to have a place to meet a friend late at night.Savory items on menu too.“
“located inside the city center on 6th plaza...2nd floor and directly across from the food court entrance...small cafe with a couple small tables/chairs inside and in the lobby...small food menu containing items like croissant or bagel sandwiches, salads, parfait, and avocado toast...but, here for the korean cafe drink menu and the unique korean latte offerings...like the black sesame latte, whole grain latte or honey scotch latte...foamy, creamy and thick topped lattes...honey scotch latte is a butterscotch flavor (not alcoholic)...rich and good...like drinking a dessert...“
“Came here to work a bit on Friday after my morning workout. They are located next to a church I believe and they have a large parking lot. The place is spacious and there was hardly anyone there when I arrived. They have a variety of options when it comes to snack and food. I opted for a egg and cheese croissant and a cup of coffee. The croissant tasted really good. The coffee wasn't too strong which is what I enjoy. I was going to use the 15% yelp check in but the lady at the counter didn't understand what I was talking about. BUT the prices here are so reasonable compared to other coffee shops, so really there is no need to use the check in option. Definitely on my list of places to work in the morning.“
“Canyon Coffee literally shook my world. My brother and I were visiting from Florida, doing what we always do - in search of the BEST coffee shop experiences imagineable. Canyon blew our expectations out of the water. We were greeted by the coolest cat, Carlos, with a bold, yet incredibly friendly stature. He knew the menu like the back of his hand. I landed on the eloquent “Hot Japanese Brown Sugar Latte”. LIKE WHAT!! Craft of the craft, one of the best lattes I’ve ever had. Yes, “my bro and I are twins”, I told him. Little did I know we were about to be served a delectable slice of perfectly baked Banana Sesame bread made by a local queen. Impressively moist. Yep, I said it. From the time we walked in, we felt like we were home. A pleasant experience all the way around.Dialed in coffee. Amazing service. Great chats. Insanely styled atmosphere. Food was unreal. Phenomenal experience. We will be back for more… one day. Bring this to Florida asap please.“
“Ate here on a Saturday morning with my son. We both got pancakes shared some sausage, eggs, and french fries ( my son's request. He's 4) The pancakes were fluffy and delicious. The server was nice and I could tell they didn't want to overwhelm her. As you saw in other reviews, this place has some funny rules. Since we were very hungry, once she came over to take our drink orders we were ready to get the kitchen started on our food. I started to place the order for our food and the server stopped me and said that another table that came in before us hasn't ordered yet. And that it would be fair to wait. I didn't like this at all but the other table placed their order immediately after so it wasn't too bad. I'm gonna wait until they fix some staffing and operations issues before I go back, even though the food was good.“
“Its a beautiful cosy place, takes you back in time. The cakes, as you can see in the video look delicious (didn't try one though).We had the lemon pancakes which were AMAZING, also the breakfast burrito which was really delicious as well and very filling. Their coffees were also flavourful and strong.Lastly, salmon with potato pancakes..which I personally didn't really like.. they had a funny taste.. quite soggy.. something about the salmon? Or the eggs? I didn't understand but unfortunately has a weird and not good taste.“
