Been here before when it was under different owner, all vegetarian. It’s since been bought and new owner Anna meat has been added to the menu. Still has a great vibe and outdoor area, but the beloved veggie burger patty is gone. So if you’re looking forward to that, so sorry. Maybe we can pursuade the new ownership to bring it back.
Lunch was still delicious, loved the carrot ginger soup, warm and yummy! My friend got the cheeseburger and loved it.
Oh, and the bathrooms were perfectly clean 🙂

Came here for lunch and got in with no reservations on a Saturday. Sat outside on a warm sunny LA day. Food was good. Order the fries they are so good.

Came here for lunch and ordered a cheeseburger. The waiter asked how i wanted the burger to be cooked and clearly stated i wanted medium rare. Instead i got a well done cheeseburger and some parts were burnt.

He also stated if i wanted to upgrade to truffle fries which i did and instead got regular that just tasted like normal fries (without the truffle). I asked the waiter why it doesnt taste like truffle and he stated the kitchen just uses truffle salt and stopped using truffle oil and that he would bring some truffle sauce. When he brought the aioli sauce that doesn’t even taste like truffle and he just placed it on our table without any recognition. He seemed annoyed.

Overall service is not good, we came here before multiple times and servers don’t seem to be properly trained with proper etiquette. We came here regularly for Sunday brunch, but seems like quite a few servers here kept forgetting our orders or brought out wrong orders which made us wait a while. This makes us wonder if this place even trains the staff members.

I will not be coming back here.

My Margherita pizza was burnt and my vanilla latte did not taste like a vanilla latte. I kinda knew my latte was not going to taste right since it was not on the menu. As for my pizza, when the waiter placed in on the table, I asked him why my pizza was burnt. He said, “Thats the way the come.” Which is a huge lie. I always buy Margherita pizzas and I have never gotten one burnt.

Food was good, had the chilaquiles and asparagus/mushrooms omelette. I like my chilaquiles spicy, these were not, although they had good flavor. The chai latte was delicious

♿ = has a wheelchair lift, would love if it had a QR code for blind folks to view the menu independently.

⭐= I really enjoyed the laid vibe, especially at the outdoor seating, the music was great and laid-back, the service was attentive but not invasive.

My meal was decent, I got the eggs benedict, too many scallions for my liking, but they gave me extra hollandaise sauce which was fun! My hot drink was a little too hot, and my sweet drink was a little too sweet, but they both had a good amount of alcohol in it, so can you really complain? I went with my dude, who was gluten free and he loved the gluten-free pizza, and he hates sweet ciders, and they had a really nice dry cider for him.

Spacious and bright restaurant featuring both tables and booths, plus a relaxing open-air courtyard adorned with olive trees and equipped with outdoor heating. The atmosphere is inviting, though the music might be a bit loud for a breakfast setting

Great spot for work meetings, and has plenty of spots to sit. There’s a nice healthy selection of vegetarian dishes.

The veggie burger (a house made burger) is always a hit with my friends. The mac, and cheese was good but a little dry for my liking. The Angel hair pasta was perfect for what I was wanting. Not too heavy, and a good bread to pair.

Nice combo restaurant/marketplace! Servings are great portions. The staff was very nice & helpful. They open early for those of us who work graveyard and need good healthy food when our shift ends in the morning. It is dog friendly and they have indoor & outdoor eating spaces. They also have a to-go section where you can shop for already made meals to take.
