“This place was a childhood home away from home. My family and friends all grew up on Jack's Donuts. Recently, we made a quick stop for some emergency breakfast, and it real icon of the hood, a true gem. The breakfast bagel sandwiches are generous and just super good. The eggs are not just perfectly cooked but also seasoned. This simple sandwich made my day. And while there was nothing super fancy about it, you can really taste the love and attention in the preparation. They have their old classics and a whole new menu. Plus of course, their huge variety classic donuts, including their signature coconut donut and sugar donut.“
“A welcome retreat that I happened to stumble upon while going to an appointment at the adjoining lab tech. next door. Fantastic place. Highly recommend it. First thing I noticed was a Bible on the table and I all one of the girls there, I say " do you know what's wrong with that Bible sitting on the table there?" She kind of glances at it, and I tell her that "it's never been opened!" After was sitting there and wonderful lady came over and asked me if things were alright and if I needed some water. We spoke briefly, then she asked if she could pay with me. Do she prayed with me and introduced me to the rest of her family. How very nice indeed. Thank you all so much... It totally made my whole day...Highly recommended. Again... Thanks and God bless you all...g~“
“The staff here are incredibly helpful and quite friendly, as well. What a wonderful treat it was to experience this! As sad as it sounds, I feel that it's all too rare a thing to encounter these days.Now, about the offerings at T.M.s ... Two words: Blended Horchata! You just gotta try it, Period. I was also very impressed with their tres leches muffins - both chocolate and strawberry varieties.Well, what are you waiting for? GO! You'll be so glad you did.“
“This is truly a gem of a hole in the wall!! Almost literally, and I say that with respect and appreciation. This cute little eatery is easy to miss, being tucked in a very small strip mall (if it even qualifies as that!) between a small pharmacy and a laundromat, just south of the Arco on the corner of PCH and Pacific. But once you have eaten here, boy oh boy is it hard to forget!I come here about once every other week when I'm on a regular work schedule. Became hooked immediately with their unique bahn mi sandwiches and their pate chaud. Now I'm completely obsessed with their plant-based shrimp spring rolls and their grilled pork bun bowl. That bowl is the perfect balance of light and filling, flavorful and refreshing. It is one of my lunch go-to options. And the plant-based shrimp rolls are AMAZING. Obviously I'm not vegan, but this is an item that I enjoy so much despite it all.I have yet to try their pho. Maybe one of these days. They do have seating inside, but no restroom. Also, parking lot is small and shared, so I avoid coming during peak lunch hours, usually after 1 to pick up my food, and I've had no issues.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, flavorful too!Parking: Parking lot is pretty small and shared with a pharmacy, laundromat and discount store.“
“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.“
“OMG this Japanese restaurant and dessert place is super cute and delicious. Follow me!Highlights of the menu:1. Original pancake - super jiggling2. Durian hot premium pancake - Oh em Gee love!!3. Strawberry matcha dalgona4. Hot coffee with marshmallow and cookie5. Chicken karaage6. Tonkatsu curry“
“4++ great neighborhood coffee shop that has fun, chill vibes, and enthusiastic service. There's fun decor inside and looks like a place where people can hang out or get some reading and/or work done. I only got an Americano or drip from here (with added cream), so I can't really speak to the food items or any of the more complex, possibly more sugary drinks here. It looks like they roast their own beans here as well. I had a lot of coffee at home at the time of my visit, so I didn't buy a bag. I might have to come back and grab one. Parking was easy to find. There's a lot on the side of the building. If the lot is full, I'm pretty sure you could find street parking close by.“
“Came here on a random morning with my kid after their doctor appointment and so so glad I did! Called ahead to see if they had a high chair & thank god I did cause they only had 1! No biggie, strollers exist for a reason. We got the 1. Catfish special - 2 filet catfish (fried to perfection btw) 2 over easy eggs and cheesy grits 2. Fried chicken with 2 scrambled eggs and roasted potatoes Grits were okay, I make them better at home so obvi I wasn't expecting home outdoors lol Chicken and fish were PERFECT. Tasty and crunchy. My kid ate it up!! Each plate came with a choice of toast, we got the sourdough (it already came buttered) that's customer service! Not to mention, the waiter looked like he was handling the tables and the register. He did so with kindness, attentiveness and promptness. I was never waiting for someone to check on us for very long. I love Inglewood and moved away from here a few years ago so it was nice to come back and feel that community feel again Prior to getting the check, a young lady checked on us (we sat outside) and promptly got us our check and some to-go boxes. 10/10 would recommend. Really appreciated the service and quality of food. Next time we're in the area, I'm bringing the hubsters“
“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!“
“AMAZING FOOD! Love that it is non alcoholic as it definitely invites a positive crowd. Very lowkey neighborhood as well. Service was quick and snappy. My friend did not like her original order but they exchanged it for something else on the menu with no issues. Will be returning often as a resident of signal hill“
“The food and service at the new location are just as wonderful as the original location. I look forward to more of my favorite dishes coming over. For now, I am enjoying trying new dishes and the lunch specials are a great deal. The team members are extremely friendly/inviting, and I always enjoy their recommendations.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“I ordered the chicken fried steak and it tastes was savory,fresh and crispy. The gravy was smooth, creamy and not so salty. The service is very responsive and respectful however this place does get packed so expect a wait time. Ambiance feels like a hole in the wall type dinner as the location is in between many other shops in a shopping area. Well worth the wait.“
“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.“
“I came here on a Thursday so it wasn't too crowded. Stopped by before heading to the AngelCity Market. I tried the Yuzu Jasmine Lemonade, Cheese & Spicy Peppers Potato Ball and the Chicken Torta. All very delicious!Parking: The parking structure is behind Portos and it's good for 2hr parking as long as you're a customer.“
“Delicious cheesecakes.I've been there twice.We've tried Cookies & Cream and pecan with chocolate sauce. It's advertised as caramel. However, it's dark and doesn't taste like caramel.I scrape it off and use my own syrup.That's my only gripe about that particular cheesecake.I would recommend people try them.**I would also love for them to have more flavors available.“
“Such a nice cafe to relax and eat :D I was satisfied with my orders and the workers there! Ordered the avocado toast(They didn't have anymore sourdough and replaced it with baguette which was still so delicious!), croque monsieur, caffe latte with nutella, matcha latte, and an eclair vanilla. Everything was perfect! I would definitely come back here again if I need a small brunch :) this place was worth the visit. I highly recommend their eclairs, they did such an amazing job with them that I kept remembering how it tastes like“
“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.“
“What a hidden gem! Ample parking and a beautiful space. Who would've known there's a great spot in this business area? Service was awesome! And everyone was very friendlThe drink menu was so diverse and they even have large batch cocktails to go. The food menu has something for everyone. I liked that there was breakfast and pastries along with lunch items.We got two bloody Mary's, a cold brew, salad, soup, burger and sandwich. Which came out to about $80ish before tips. Everything was so good! I want to go back to try more.“
“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.“
“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!!“
“Last minute search for a breakfast/brunch type spot and found Marin Cafe. It's located in an area off of Rosmead that shares a small parking lot with Zapien's Salsa Grill. It is a small lot but there's parking on the other side. I went while it was raining in the morning around 9 so it was pretty empty. The cafe is a small shop with 3 four-seater tables so not good for huge groups. But the decor was really cute and cozy. A mix of cafe and small bakery. Love the painted walls with the cake and bakery items painted on. There was a large display case of various bakery good from conchas, to croissants, to cakes and cake slices. Everything looked so good. Brisa (I hope I didn't spell her name incorrectly, apologies!) was our barista and she was lovely. Very friendly and let us take our time, she answered my bf's questions about the food. We chatted here and there and then placed our orders with her. She kept us updated on our food as they made the wrong sandwich for me and needed to remake it which was no problem and appreciated. The food was delicious! We ordered a concha, with an Abuelita hot latte, a mocha hot latte, breakfast burrito and breakfast sandwich. Recommend the Abuelita hot latte for sure, perfect on a rainy cold day. The chocolatey spice from the Abuelita was so good with the espresso, the mocha was great as well great blend of chocolate and coffee. Now the breakfast sandwich was bomb, presentation and taste were great. Eggs were hot and fluffy, bacon crispy, with ham, and refreshing tomato avocado and lettuce with a honey mustard type sauce. It also came with a side of potato salad, pickles and banana peppers. The potato salad is EXACTLY how I like it, not mayonnaise-y and sweet. Brekfast burrito was nice and filling too, bf said he'd definitely add bacon next time as mine was crispy in my sandwich hash browns were crispy and the creamy lime cilantro sauce was so good with it. I also ordered a slice of the mocha tres leches cake...so good not overly sweet and mocha wasn't too strong. The cake was overly saturated with milk which I would've like but it had the right amount of moistness so not to make it soggy. All in all definitely reccomend this little gem of a cafe. Owners and staff are all friendly and the food and drinknwere fantastic. Definitely coming back for more cake!“
“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.“
“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!“
“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.“
“This place is a South Bay gem! The coffee is the best I have found in our area, the owner/staff are super friendly, and the food is fresh & delicious. In the morning, it's packed but service is still efficient. Highly recommend stopping by and grabbing a latte and a crostini!“
“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 tried their lox bagel today, and it was so satisfying. They do not skimp on the cream cheese, the lox, or the caper. All the ingredients tasted fresh and fragrant. Service was friendly and attentive, even though it's just counter service. Hours after I finished my bagel sandwich, my stomach is still thanking me.“
“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.“
“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...“
“TMJ Café - A Haven for Donut Lovers If there's one thing you must try at TMJ Café, it's their Maple Bacon Donut. This delightful treat is nothing short of phenomenal. The donut itself is pillow-soft, providing the perfect canvas for the rich, sweet and savory toppings. The maple glaze is expertly balanced - not too sweet, just perfectly syrupy, complementing the crispy, savory bacon on top. Each bite is a harmonious blend of flavors and textures that leaves you craving more. The ambiance of TMJ Café adds to the experience, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. It's clear that they put a lot of love and care into their baked goods. And if the Maple Bacon Donut is anything to go by, the rest of their menu promises to be just as delightful. In summary, TMJ Café is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. Their Maple Bacon Donut is a standout, and I am eagerly looking forward to indulging in the rest of their delicious offerings. Oh goodness gracious, this is a donut lover's dream come true!“
“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.“
“Coffee is good & vegan dount as well!Came here for a quick coffee run! Big time worth it!Ordered there Iced Horchata Latte 5/5Cost $ 7.50$1.00 for oatmilkTotal $8.50Vegan Dount$3.00The place was good but it cost a lot for a coffee for sure!Perfect place to do some work!For sure, it's a nice vibe!“
“This is a really cute tiny spot right across the metro on Flower Street. The inside is very minimalistic and aesthetically pleasing. I did hear a lot of wonderful things about their matcha but sadly they were out for the day, which is okay it happens; I'll definitely be back for it! The owner was super sweet and a very helpful guy. All the menu items come with oat milk automatically, which is cool- you can always substitute with another milk except for the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Latte. I got the two best selling coffees which was the Cinnamon Toast Crunch + G Spot - I loved the Cinnamon Toast Crunch one it was perfectly flavored, but the G Spot one I had to toss as it was sooooooo sweet it was like drinking sugar; but Im sure that can be pleasant for sweet tooths so I'm not judging! The menu is super extensive so Im pretty sure there is something for everyone to love! Pricing is very high up there, but Im also not going to judge on that as cost of goods are flying through the roof for restaurant industries as well. Overall pretty good :)“
“I would rate 6 stars if possible they go above n beyond to make me feel comfortable asking me if i needed wifi for my work since they noticed i had may laptop when i was working from the cafe , food amazing and the atmosphere was great and cozy would 100% recommend for any locals ?“
“Honestly, the taiyaki here is the best I've ever tasted! It nails the perfect texture balance, with a crispy exterior that gives way to a wonderfully chewy inside. And the red bean filling? Absolutely flawless every time. There's nothing like enjoying it fresh – that's when it truly shines. My only wish is for them to invest in more taiyaki makers to cut down the wait time during busy hours.“
“Just an all around cute hidden cafe. The portions are great for the prices, the service is always friendly, and I've never had a bad experience here, and I'm here a few times a month.For the food, a pretty good variety, including some of the best breakfast food around this area, do stop by if you get the chance.“
“This place was awesome! I'm an at home coffee drinker but the waitress recommended the Cardi P Latte and it was great! We also had the breakfast sandwich which was super tasty. I loved the decor and the outside seating, it was truly a peaceful place and I'd recommend it to anyone!“
“This cafe shares a space with the lobby of kodo hotel, and is beautiful Japanese minimalism at its peak. That being said, it must get slow because both the lobby reception and cafe barista were looking bored and on their devices when I stepped in. It was a bummer that they were already out of pastries to not have a little sweet something to accompany my usual espresso, so I opted for an oat cortado which was lovely. The coffee and ambiance in their mini outside patio was nice.“
“Minimalist coffee shop located in the same plaza as Hae Jae Chon. Came here while waiting for a table and it was a nice place to relax. A fair amount of people were also studying in this cafe. I tried the matcha latte with matcha cloud foam and a ham and cheese croissant. The drink took a while to be made but there was only one person working the counter and he was doing his best. The croissant did get warmed up so that was nice. My friend enjoyed her Vienna latte (this came with a biscoff cookie) and it was indeed a creamy drink.“
“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“
“We stopped here for coffee and dessert, the place is a bit old and needs to be cleaned and dusted, in general the restaurant is cozy, there are only three tables inside but more seating is available outside, but if you stay outside be prepared to smell smoking or weed from people passing by. We ordered Expresso and sweet bread, the coffee was really good and the bread was okay, not really amazing, lots of pictures on the wall from famous people, specially Jeni Rivera, but this area is dirty and definitely should be cleaned.The restroom is clean and lots of free parking is available.“
