Chinese Chicken salad is a must have.

A frequent patron at the Rolling Hills location, decided I’d take my family to the LA one. I probably will not be going back. The food was ehh, apple tart was t warm. I get food issues but it was the bartender that turned me off completely. He literally had his fingers full of cheese, would bend right in front of my while I was eating and shove it in his mouth. I thought I was crazy until it was done multiple times. No washing hands and then was digging with his pinkie in his ear. I was grossed out and wanted to exit immediately, not sure if this is a normal practice but at least use a spoon or wash your hands. Sad because I love Truxton’s, maybe just avoid this location.

Fantastic brunch experience here on a Sunday morning around 11:30am! We waited for 30 minutes since it was busy, but ordered quickly once seated. Note that they do have a bar, which is first come first serve and they play sports games on the TVs. I wouldn’t say the interior is anything special in its decor, but it’s a well maintained mix of traditional wood and modern metal that gives the place a higher-end feel.

Our server and the rest of the staff were extremely attentive, checking in on us frequently throughout our meal. The cafe latte was good, but served in a cup that made it difficult to drink as you had to drink so much foam before you could enjoy the coffee. Foodwise we ordered the strawberries and cream waffle and Pablo’s breakfast burrito with a side of fresh fruit. Both dishes were delicious and the presentation was phenomenal! The savory chipotle sauce on the burrito was addicting and the almonds, cream and strawberries on the waffle paired super well together. My only criticism is that the texture of the waffle was dense and tough to cut.

I loved this place! I was a little turned off by the guy who worked the host stand. There's was a bit of a wait so we sat at the bar and ordered apps. When our table was ready he was a little rude but once we sat down at the table service was great. The food was so delicious that we have back a few days later. I highly recommend ordering the monkey bread 🍞

I truly enjoyed my turkey club sandwich and the tasty, slightly crunchy fries added another layer to my satisfaction. I went on a Friday late evening and our wait was only 5 minutes even without a reservation so the expeeience started off well. It was a nice crowd and the vibe was chill. And my drink?! Ridiculously delicious and perfectly blended with a generous amount of tequila...thank you, bartender 💕. Our waiter, Benedict, was awesome and very attentive. He took good care of my Goddaughter and me. I LOVED it and I will be back to try the Turkey burger! Oh, I'm definitely looking forward to the Mango Margarita!! Cheers🍹🍹

I had a delicious lunch at Truxton's including monkey bread with garlic butter, honey glazed shrimp with a zesty slaw & sweet potato fries. Every bite was delectable. While not on the menu, per my request they made strawberry lemonade for me. It was also very good. I'm looking forward to a return visit.

There are times in life when people surprise you. I think the same is true of places. Truxton’s in Los Angeles was one such place, and indeed a wonderful dining experience to conclude our LA trip(being conveniently located close to LAX airport).

There was a 5-10 minute wait when we arrived(an early Friday evening). The wait only increased as the evening progressed, indicating that the place was indeed popular. Benedict, our server, was kind and hospitable through and through. He ensured all our requests were met.

For food, we got:

Chili Basil Salmon: A magical salmon dish with salmon marinated in sambal, ginger and lemongrass-it blew us away! We could really taste the ginger coming through subtly. The salmon itself was smooth as butter. The green beans on the side were another healthy accompaniment. 10/10 indeed!

Wild Mushroom Linguine: A tasty pasta dish suitable for vegetarians—the linguine was well-done and went well with the roasted garlic cream sauce. We were hooked to it with the first bite. 10/10 again

Turkey Lasagna: A delicious concoction of turkey, ricotta and romano cheese, tomatoes and garlic cream sauce—we finished the dish pretty fast, 🤤. The fine balance of flavors hit our palate and made us yearn for the next bite. 10/10

Monkey Bread: A bread lover’s delight—we didn’t feel ashamed as our primordial instincts took over pulling apart the house-made bread with cheddar cheese and garlic! It was so good we ordered another, and shared it.

The IPAs(local) and ciders were great too. We didn’t have desserts(something to look forward to on our next visit).

To sum up our experience, while we were waiting, I started chitchatting with an older woman, who said it was one of those places that just “gets” it, and makes you keep returning. It wasn’t fine dining, but not all experiences have to be. We loved Truxton’s overall and highly recommend it!

There’s a free, large parking lot right next to Truxton’s, and chances are high you might find parking easily there. Be prepared for a wait if you visit during peak hours. Seating inside is in a large hall.
