Took my three kids to CJ’s Cafe on La Brea and overall we had a good experience. The food came out fast, about 10 minutes, and the service was really friendly.
I ordered the fried chicken with collard greens and sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes were slamming. The collard greens were okay, I added some hot sauce and that helped. The chicken was good, though one piece was very large and didn’t cook as evenly as the others. My kids had pancakes and chili cheese fries. The pancakes were good but a little small. My daughter said the chili cheese fries were the second best she’s ever had, and she’s 12, so that says something.
For four people the bill was about $65 before tip, which felt reasonable.
The restaurant itself was okay on cleanliness. The bathroom was decent and I didn’t mind my kids using it, but the place could definitely use a deeper cleaning. Booth space is also a little tight if you’re seating multiple people.
I usually eat plant-based, but this was one of those meals where it was worth stepping outside that routine. It wasn’t a disappointment.
If you’re looking for a casual spot on La Brea with decent food and quick service, CJ’s Cafe is worth trying.
Not a critic, just sharing how it felt.

Worst food ever smashed up frozen potatoes as home fries . The waitress was only helpful to who she like and had an attitude!!! The bathroom and everything in the dining was old and dirty need to updated and the sunken seats makes it uncomfortable to sit it was a restaurant that needs MAJOR UPGRADES You will be disappointed if you eat here
