“I absolutely loved Junior’s cookies. They are the best cookies ever and every time I am in LA it’s a must that we stopped there. We were super sad that Junior and his mom were not in town this time that we stopped, but we will definitely catch up with you guys next time. Thank you for such amazing cookies“
“"C is for cookie and that's good enough for me," -Cookie MonsterI found Uzzi's Cookies at the Beverly Hills Farmer's Market. First and foremost, I must say that the vendors at this stand are just the sweetest. They were very patient and helpful in assisting us with our cookie selection and we also had so much fun chatting with them! The cookies are wrapped beautifully. They would make excellent gifts. The simple, high quality ingredients are listed on the back of each package which is a really nice touch and so appreciated. We got three cookies: Snickerdoodle, Honey Peanut Butter, and Strawberries and Cream. The cookies are a nice size and are easily sharable. Two cookies come in each pack. These cookies were soft, not too sweet, and packed with flavor. Best of all, they reminded me of the simple cookies of my childhood. It's hard to choose a favorite cookie because the flavors we chose were all good and all so different. I loved the cinnamon notes in the snickerdoodle. The strawberries and cream's fruitiness tasted like summer. Finally, the honey peanut butter's classic peanut butter flavor was just so comforting. Highly recommend visiting this stand when at the Beverly Hills Farmer's Market. Fall flavors such as gingersnap and pumpkin spice will be available soon! Uzzi's Cookies can be found online at uzziscookies.com. 15% off coupon if you check in on Yelp. They do corporate gifting and events too! #shoplocal“
“The bakery is amazing with great staff. They refused to sell anything that was not fresh, which was surprising and amazing. The honesty in their business makes me want to go back every week! Just for reference I went in to buy their Baklava and when I asked the price the amazing lady just said they are not fresh. I ended up buying 4 pieces of their fresh bakery. A mix between savory and sweet and it’s all amazing. Great prices too!!!“
“I had an amazing experience with this lovely bakery. I called from Philadelphia to order a little something for my daughter's 33rd birthday. It had to be delivered at a very specific time. They were so patient with me helping to select something. Then I had to change the time and I knew that I probably couldn't with such late notice. When I called they were just so so helpful and happy to change. I was really impressed.It was such a good feeling to have had this interaction. Their baked goods are out of this world too!!!“
“One popular spot known for its delicious borekas in Los Angeles is "Borekas Sephardic Pastries" in Sherman Oaks. They offer a variety of flavors and are well-regarded by locals and visitors alike. It's worth giving them a try if you're in the area!“
“Its a beautiful cosy place, takes you back in time. The cakes, as you can see in the video look delicious (didn't try one though).We had the lemon pancakes which were AMAZING, also the breakfast burrito which was really delicious as well and very filling. Their coffees were also flavourful and strong.Lastly, salmon with potato pancakes..which I personally didn't really like.. they had a funny taste.. quite soggy.. something about the salmon? Or the eggs? I didn't understand but unfortunately has a weird and not good taste.“
“Came back to Ocean Park Blvd to try this place and it did not disappoint! We ended up getting the Gravlax Works (on everything bagel) and an Onion bagel with jalapeño cream cheese, to compare to Layla Bagels next door. Overall really delicious - the gravlax works was perfect and light, the salmon was amazing - perfect flavors! I definitely prefer this one a bit more. And for the other bagel, the jalapeño cream cheese was a nice touch ,though when comparing to the basic bagel we got from Layla's, the schmear was a little less flavored. The line moved quickly and the workers were all nice! Can't wait to come back to try the pastries and also grab a loaf or two to go!! :) *Note that Jyan Isaac Bread and Layla Bagels seem pretty strict on their outdoor seating, reserving the seats in front of their restaurants for customers only. The manager here came out a handful of times to ask Layla customers to leave!“
“Kind of hidden away in the slightly shady feeling streets south of Hollywood Blvd is this gorgeous cafe/restaurant.If the weather's nice try to get a table outside, otherwise inside is just lovely.Apart from the awesome breads, the salads and sandwiches are amazing. Try the grains bowl for something filling, healthy and delicious! The service is super friendly and intrusive, just the way it should be.Highly recommended.“
“Where else are you going to get your Zhengyalov Hatz?!Where else can you go that the only question the cashier asks is "how many?"This place is just selling their one herby thing, and damn do they know how to make it. A nice quick pre-movie snack“
“Ayo! Stumbled upon this cool lil cookie shop in SM. It did not disappoint and I will be coming back FoSho. I like how the cookies are smaller than the Big Cookie trend that's going on so that can taste more of their creative flavors. Also lower pricing point per cookie as well. My Fav is $100k Cookie. That thing was amazing, i was only supposed to take a bite cause i had 3 other flavors to try but Nope couldn't do it, i ate the whole thing. It had a chewy caramel center with gooey milk chocolate and crispy rice crispy's on the outside. Street parking available, they accepted cards and staff was very helpful. Come check this place out y'all!“
“"Sippin from your cup 'til it runneth over..." I heard JT performed at the Wiltern last night for free so I had his music on repeat in my head all day today during work. So of course I had to stop by here as soon as I saw the store name. I did NOT expect to find the best donuts I've ever had in my life. Period. I walked in and was greeted warmly and decided to just order the Original Sin and their version of classic milk. They were so nice and gave me another donut for free which was the Obrama. Everything was so scrumptious. I loved that the donuts weren't too big. The quality of the donut is so good that it only needs to be a smaller size to have the same effect as something larger. The outer texture and the crispness reminded me of the blueberry m&m donuts that they sell in OC where people line up for hours to buy. The donuts here taste better because the inside texture is a lot lighter and isn't as dense so you don't feel disgustingly full afterwards with regrets. I cannot wait to come back and get some for my family and friends. I wanted to test it out myself first prior to sharing with others. Yum! Also their classic milk was soooooo good and complimented the donuts so perfectly.“
“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.“
“Same great bread (and food) but not the same service as Washington. Staff here seemed a little miserable, slow, forgot basic things to the table such as napkins and plates. Offered to warm up the cinnamon roll, which they did, but barely.Cinnamon roll is massive and delicious, as is the frosting. Baked eggs also very good. Very small dining room with just about four tables, so not a lot of sitting area. So again, great for the food just not for the service.Kid-friendliness: kid friendly but small venue“
“Excellent food! Service is usually very good, but our last visit was extremely rushed. It made for an unpleasant experience. If they want guests to leave by 10 they should not except reservations after 8:30 PM. People should not be forced to eat fast at high prices.“
“I must have died and gone to doughnut heaven. The donut texture is fluffy with a pleasant slight chew, and not oily or too sweet for the most part. Most were priced $4-5 each but I find it worth it for the quality of the ingredients.Our favorites are the misugaru (roasted soybean) because it's mild and nutty and has a chewy filled mochi inside. The black sesame is also intensely nutty with a chewy mochi inside too. My wife loves the sweet potato cream the most because it has fresh sweet potato puree along with milk cream, and it's the Korean/Japanese sweet potato that's delightfully sweet and nutty.Tiramisu had plenty of rich cocoa powder accompanying the tangy cream (probably cream cheese mixed in it?). The bitterness of the cocoa was the best together with the cream.The strawberry milk cream had a small amount of strawberry pieces but the cream was so milky rich yet light at the same time. The blueberry one is the exact same except with a few blueberries so I slightly prefer the strawberry one.Matcha creme brulee had strongly flavored matcha cream but I'm not too much of a fan of the sugar crust top. I might still try the regular creme brulee next time to compare the regular custard.Our least favorite was the apple cinnamon because the icing was too sweet but the presentation was beautiful with the pieces of apple inside.We saw quite a line build up after us at 10am so I'd come early since they open at 9am until they sell out! The parking lot is nice and big so it wasn't any trouble finding parking. The mall also has other interesting stalls like a kimbap and udon one if you need some savory to offset the sweet.“
“Everything was on point: great coffee, classic Danish pastries and an amazing Princess Cake that was customized in minutes for our Easter gathering. The staff were gracious and so helpful. Our new goal is to try all the cakes, seems like a tasty and worthy project for 2024. You can order online too or by phone to have your cake ready for pickup.“
“AMAZING cookies! They were not kidding when they said they stand behind their craft. I've been on a cookie streak recently and have tried many different shops in the area with over 4.5+ in ratings. Most often than not, I left feeling disappointed. Cookies would either be stale, too hard, too brittle, too sweet, or pretty good but not worth $5-6. This is one cookie shop worth talking about. They carried all the exotic flavors, with the right texture and sweetness. I look forward to trying other flavors next time I visit. 1. Guava Cheese (9.5/10) - I love guava, and I love cheese but unfortunately for me, I can't do goat anything. Though there's only a hint of goat cheese, it's still there and you can taste it, if you are sensitive like me. Otherwise, it would've been a 10/10. Amazing texture and flavor. You will love this if goat cheese is your jam. 2. Matcha Strawberry Yuzu Mochi (9/10) - it's ALL there! A melange of different flavors that blend quite beautifully. Mochi is a little gritty (don't expect Japanese mochi texture here), but the cookie itself was so good and that touch of yuzu was exceptional. 3. Mango Sticky Rice (8.5/10) - Again, another unique flavor mix that was really nice. Sticky rice on top tends to get a little hard over time, but if you're a mango fan, this would be a flavor for you. They did not skimp on the ingredients and there's enough dried mango chunks for you to enjoy with every bite!“
“Literally EVERYTHING is incredible! Lots of love and care put into each item. Tatiana and her husband are super passionate about serving delicious and nutritious food to their visitors. The lox bagel, brioche French toast and cinnamon roll are just a couple of the fantastic, drool inducing items. Can’t wait to come back to LA!!“
“In search of a good french pastry place in the LA area so drove here to try it. Overall 3.5/5 Mixed Berry Tart 4.5/5 Strawberry Pistachio Croissant 4/5 Butter Croissant 4/5 Kouign Amann - 2/5 If you live in the area, definitely a good pastry store that's close to home.“
“Usually, my wife and I go in the mornings to have coffee and some pastry. We like to sit outside to enjoy the food and service. However, in the past couple of months, there have been these guys just hanging around the outside and smoking. Being a non-smoker, it really bothers me, and I have seen other customers being bothered by it as well. Even Porto's employees have asked us if it bothers us.“
“My go-to spot for simple french sandwiches. NEVER DISAPPOINTS! Ive had all of their meat sandwiches and their omelette sandwich. Always so good and fresh. love the crunch of the baguette with their rich butter or their gooey soft omelette. the omelette sandwich is my favorite, because i'm just an egg enjoyer and would prefer breakfast meals over lunch or dinner. I will KEEP on going back here! Also their ice pink praline latte, is a MUST TRY. not overly sweet with a nice floral scent to pair with its creaminess. this place is really a hidden gem in the neighborhood.“
“This is a cozy, local neighborhood hangout and a great place to meet up to grab a bite and a latte. My favorite is the egg in the hole avocado toast. So satisfying and delicious. The service is always friendly. Some days takes longer than others to get your food so if in a rush, try ordering ahead. Also, parking is notoriously bad in this court so I recommend parking in the VA lot and walking over.“
“super reasonable prices! get the cheese roll! delightful and sweet. potato balls and strudel were good as well. the service was relatively quick especially considering how busy and popular this place is.Parking: parking is in the rear entrance, there is a whole lot“
“Cookies like no other! I love the excitement of checking the weekly menu every Sunday and seeing the big reveal. I went to the location in Cerritos for the first time while my car was being serviced and have been back at least 3 times. So satisfying!! Waiting to see what’s available next week!“
“Baked Bar LA is the best part of my daily routine. Whether it’s stopping in for an espresso, or grabbing a delicious sandwich or baked good, this is my go to spot.The place is always clean, the service is excellent, and I love the vibe of the space! They do a great job welcoming everyone and are fantastic at everything they do!My personal favorite is the butter sandwich…! Mon Dieu, it’s SO good! Highly recommend :)“
“5/5 Written from a former bakery owner. My family owned a bakery in Detroit for 40+ years and sold it during Covid in 2021. I know baking and so does Toluca Bakery. Excellent customer service. Family owned shop with the mom and son working when my friend and I went in. So much variety, and the price point is low for all you’re getting.This is a bakery making old school, classic recipes. They veganized so many items that you can’t find in most places. The chocolate chip cookies were delicious, concha’s super tasty, Tres Leches was chef’s kiss, turnover amazing, danish great, cupcakes yum, eclairs fantastic and empanadas scrumptious. Highly recommend. Plus for folks who like supporting small business, this is exactly that. It’s a win-win-win-win. Taste-options-price-family owned & operated. Get there!“
“By far the best Sangak bread in town! Ever since I tried their Sangak, I can’t eat any other Sangaks. The quality of their dishes is far superior compared to any other place in town. The owner is extremely friendly and their service is exceptional. Highly recommend it.“
“My FAVORITE place to go for breakfast!! The brekafast sandwich on a crossint is my absolute favorite!! Never a time where I will go there without getting one. The house made sauce in it is SO delicious. There are no words. MUST TRY. Everything is delicious, you can't go wrong with anything they have. Love the bakery and love the friendly staff.“
“Cute outdoor cafe with delicious scones and tea. My party had a variety of flavors and everyone enjoyed their choices. My favorites are the matcha white chocolate , ube coconut and chocolate chip. The options for vegetarian sandwiches and vegan/gluten free scones were yummy and appreciated.“
“This cafe is wonderful...they have really good overnight oats and their iced honey lavender lattes are delicious (I know...sounds different, but seriously try it!) The owner is super friendly and the cafe has many places to sit to enjoy your coffee. Will definitely come back:)“
“As someone who was raised exclusively on the art that is the Philly Pretzel I've felt deprived in Southern California. As time goes on it's grown harder to visit Philadelphia meaning more time between the brown paper bagged doughy goodness you'd buy from the guy on the center divider. Then came West coast Pretzels. These pretzels are it. Everything you love about a Philly pretzel in the sunshine of Los Angeles. I bought enough to barely last my family 18 hours. My Partner, who has only had the remnants of the Philly pretzels that made it from the outside of the airport back to LAX ate a couple bites and exclaimed that these were the best pretzels he's EVER had. This taste of "home" is so great to have available, closer than a full day of travel away. And the best part.... Unlike the Philly pretzel factory, these bad boys are vegan!“
“The best cake ever!! I went to a party yesterday and they served the marble cake with custard and whipped cream topping . The cake was light , the custard was real, and the topping devine! It wasn't too sweet but just right . The ingredients are real . I now have to go and order my own !!! Can't wait to try them all!!“
“This is a solid spot for lunch, baked goods, and pantry items (sauces, dressings, cookies, etc.) The shakahuka can’t be missed, and the same goes for the Ho Barcelona sandwich. ? I’ve come through here many times throughout the years, and everything I’ve ordered has been from really good to great.Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian sandwiches, quiches, and other lunch items.“
“Lovely little cafe near Rodeo Dr. Delicious crêpes, salads and sandwiches with a big selection of coffees and teas. The cupcakes looked scrumptious, but I did not have any this time. Instead, I ordered the Smoked Salmon Croissant sandwich and it was worth it. The staff is super friendly and welcoming.Vegetarian options: Several salad, sandwich and crepe options for vegetarians.“
“1903... wow. A friend bought a box of mochi here and I was able to try some. I'm not big on mochi since I'm just so so with red bean filling, which is most common. The mochi was pillowy soft though. I'm glad I got to try it from this place. If you're looking for mochi in Sacramento, Osaka-Ya is just as good!“
“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 got the veggie panini and an iced matcha w/ oat milk; both were very good. My brother ordered a french toast that he vacuumed down in 5 seconds and my dad ordered an omelette that he could not get enough of. Everything was just so fresh and healthy. The service was great and the employees are so friendly! I definitely suggest eating in the back patio, the atmosphere is just amazing!“
“The Menemen eggs were really good. My only wish to make them better would be to have it made with 2 eggs instead of one. The smashed eggs on toast was also delicious. My only desire would be for a nicer place (both inside and out) to sit and eat. The had seating outside, but it is right on the sidewalk and could use some decoration.“
“Everything I ever had from Vienna Pastry is beyond delicious. The staff is wonderful. My favorite cookie in the entire world is made by this fabulous bakery. I live in PA and I never make a trip to CA without several stops at Vienna Pastry. The owner, Jaleh Rahban, is one of the kindest ladies I have ever met. I recommend this shop to everyone. Jane Dornsife“
“This place used to be the biz. I cannot deny that their food is jammin' but their service and overall attitude have a lot be desired. This was the spot after the world reopened and the outdoor seating made everyone feel a little more COVID safe. I think they started feeling themselves a little too much. After my wife and I had our first couple visits there, it was great. However, subsequent visits went from awful to the absolute worst. They failed to recognize our reservations a couple of times and when they got it wrong, they made us rush to order. I would get their food again but suggest getting it delivered to spare their nonsensical restaurant/business practices. If you want the pulpo, get it there and not for delivery. And for some reason, when you get the saltado delivered, you don't get the egg. I'm assuming it's due to possible foodbourne illness issues. Five stars for food, one star for service/attitude.“
“Everything time you come down to Griffins Observatory you have to came to The Trails for there few goodies especially their lavender shortbread cookie! That's what we ordered and Avocado Sandwich. Their sandwiches are bountiful like you can see the picture I can explain it just few words you got to come here and try it. Service are very friendly and the environment is very cute and planted seating area.“
“We found this place on Yelp when searching for a good brunch spot in the area. We ordered a few chef recommendations including the spicy southern fried chicken burger, peach salad (my friend), spaghetti and a few others. The burger is great and the bun is slightly crispy which is exactly I am looking for in a gourmet burger. The sauce is well balanced with a slight tanginess. I wish the side fried potatoes could be a little more though.I also ordered an Americano. Interestingly they served you a shot of espresso and let yourself add hot water to your like. Appreciate the touch.The place can get busy on a weekend. We only called 15 mins prior to our arrival without reservation, and were pleasantly surprised we had a seat once we checked in.“
“Tiny little bakery, in little Tokyo specializing in Asian baked goods. It was packed so I didn't look at everything they had, but they had plenty of good looking sweet stuff to ruin your Hollywood diet. I just grabbed snacks to take on my travels. I snagged a bag of melon pan and it looks and taste just like anime told me it would. Also got a couple steamed buns, sadly they were sold out of anko, but I got pork and curry. Haven't tried those yet, but the melon pan got me excited for them.“
“Omggggg.... What crispy and delicious croissants they have! Made me think I was in Paris for a second.. also got a baguette which took my sandwiches to the next level! A little pricey but would expect nothing less when they are using French flour, yeast and butter! So happy they are so close to me! Do yourself a favor and go enjoy a yummy, flaky croissant!“
“I work in the nearby bank so often walk to Sasoun for lunch or brunch if on an early shift. The bakery is piled high with delicious Armenian food that smells and tastes fantastic. The potato borek is my favorite order but all of the veggie food I have tried is very good. They always look after me so well.“
“The greatest cookies I’ve ever had and it’s setup at a gas station! Amazing cookies and the selection is way more than expected.I had the walnut gooie, cloud 9, the chunkie and the chocolate oatie. All four were delicious and had its own distinctive style. They lived up to the “gooie” expectation and were really filling. I think two cookies were enough to get me good & the others were extra credit. Load up on napkins and the customer service was great.Just be aware the gas station didn’t have whole milk, just 2% but all the cookies were still phenomenal by themselves. I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items.“
“4 assorted donuts / 1 glazed, 1 reese peanut butter, 1 cinnamon sugar o-nut (cronut), 1 nutella strawberry o-nut - 5 ⭐!DK's Donut & Bakery in Santa Monica is an excellent, family-owned 24-hour donut shop and cafe that has been in business for over forty years. They have a mouth-watering selection of fresh donuts, including an impressive assortment of cronut inspired donuts.Their little shop is in a small strip mall in Santa Monica. I had no trouble finding parking right outfront. The shop has a colorful, pink-focused theme. They had an outstanding selection of donuts on display in their glass cases as well as a nice, large menu board offering up all kinds of snacks, drinks, and sandwiches.The four donuts I sampled on my visit to DK's were fantastic. It was honestly a very hard decision. I had to limit myself to four because when I buy donuts, I have very little self control and know I am going to eat them all the same day. Besides, donuts are always best when they are fresh.The strawberry nutella cronut style donut was amazing. Lots of rich, hazelnut spread flavor mixed with strawberry. The plain glazed donut was top notch. I always try to get a plain glaze and use it as a baseline. A great plain glaze donut is always a treat for me. The cinnamon sugar cronut and the peanut butter cup donut were also great.I know there are other "DK" donut places out there. This one is a real treat and I think it is the OG one. If you are in Santa Monica or are passing by, make sure you stop by and support a great local business!“
“I have taken a bit of a hiatus from Yelp due to unforseen circumstances, but here I go!The owners absolutely rock. They had the Lakers game on when I arrived and we talked all things sports. Their a bunch of young dudes who are driven to create some magic in their ghost kitchen.Give them a try, you won't regret that decision!“
“We really enjoy Superba! The double cheeseburger, cheesy egg toast, and omelet with Boursin are all super tasty. My husband also loves the chicken sandwich. This is a great spot to meet up with friends on a weekend and their coffee is delicious, too!“
“Ummm wow just amazing across the board. We were able to sample quite a bit. One of the outstanding treats was the grilled brussel sprouts. The margarita pizza was classic, but tasted a cut above, I think it's their sauce. The Caesar salad is big, and boy I ate all of mine. It had a perfect balance. Try the deep fried porta Bella mushrooms with their creamy dipping sauce, you might pass out it's so good.Next time I need a desert from their French tarts and macaroons in the glass case.“
