EveJanuary 10, 2011Indulge here and then go burn it off at YAS, 831 S Hope St for an amazing spin or yoga class (just remember to allow enough time for your food to digest!)
Allison YuJanuary 7, 2016The food is okay. The portobello fries are a must try if you do sit down. The desserts are the highlight 😋
Sarah S. G.August 23, 2013Macaroons are good but the beignets are the underrated star! Get chocolate hazelnut. Divine.
Lien ChenAugust 16, 2011Best latte/cappuccino and chocolate croissant in downtown, unfortunately there's always a wait during the morning hours when I'm trying to get to work
Honorary SnackpackerApril 30, 2014Best macaroons- salty caramel was my fav.. Tarts were delicious too..
Mark ByersAugust 24, 2016It's so good and reasonably priced but it's so loooooud. Solid blank surfaces + people = echo chamber.
Megha NabeMarch 8, 2012Must try: the pizza, and mushroom fries! Even if you don't like mushrooms! Also- great wine at inexpensive prices.
Humberto SotoAugust 7, 2010Dinner: I had the cheeseburger. Meat to perfect: medium. The bun, toasted, the cheese. melted.The mushroom fries are TO DIE FOR. try this place out!
Lisa GrimmNovember 6, 2011Pistachio and lemon macaroons are to die. Vanilla latte here among the best I've ever had. Food is delish!
@JaumePrimeroNovember 16, 2012Order the Hangar Steak Verdura. They are also open for Thanksgiving this year, if you don't feel like cooking!- Emma FitzgeraldNovember 6, 2011One of my top 5 brunch spots in LA. The food is sooooo good and the service is quick. upscale but not pretentious.
Robb B.February 6, 2012This is my favorite "casual" restaurant in LA. Yeah, the dining room is loud. But the food and service are great!
JenniferSeptember 21, 2013Try the black & blue mojito (not on the cocktail menu). Best mojito I've ever had!
portobello fries, poached egg and asparagus, margherita, macarons... things you must try!
Sun GoddessNovember 6, 2011Passion fruit tart is a must have. Try a macaroon too. Salted caramel macaroon is delicious.
Great place for an afternoon tea or a fancy lunch. The pastries and portobello fries are a must-try!
The clam linguini was average. Wish the accompanying sauce was a bit more hardy. It didnt adhere to the pasta well.
TeaNovember 18, 2017Instead of ordering a dish I ordered different pastries and it cost as much as a brunch dish was. So I got to try different things. It is a very loud place. Don’t go here on a date.
Stop in for brunch or pick up a rosemary maple chicken breast & italian broccolini for a quick dinner. Take a peak in their open kitchen for menu ideas if you're eating in.
Tommy VuJanuary 9, 2012I love the place, the Food so delicious( portobello mushroom fries.)everyone nice and sweet!
Thu NgoJuly 11, 2014Such a fancy place to be! Quite expensive but it was to be expected. My friend got 28 macarons for $70+
The champagne cobbler is yummy! A staple for me. Also the 10 min wait is nothing.. Just hop over to the pastry section to feast your eyes on the yummy goodies!
Dan SApril 11, 2011For a healthy and energizing start to your day get the egg white scramble with turkey sausage and a cup of their excellent coffee
SarahMarch 6, 2011the best macarons you can find in LA. the selection diminishes by the hour, so try to hit them up before late dinner.
Betty De AndaNovember 7, 2011Expect a wait, but it is very well worth it! The salmon and eggs benedict brunch dish is oh so good!
JNovember 5, 2012cafe tables at the front serve the whole menu and are first come first serve- good alternative if the wait is long
Los Angeles Check InNovember 4, 2010If you're not sure, try the Lasagna Bolognese, the Meatball Parmesan sliders, the Shrimp Scampi, and of course, the Portobello Fries. Read more- Amazing Italian salad off menu, trenne pasta is glorious
