    Breakfast Tacos
    Annabelle G.

    Perfect place for a chill brunch with friends! We got the brisket breakfast tacos and quesadillas, along with some of their lattes - all so good! The vibes were laid back and I loved the outdoor seating area and open concept as well. Highly recommend! It's also pretty easy to find street parking nearby tldr 5/5 food - brisket breakfast tacos were superb, good bang for your buck as well 5/5 service - you order at the counter and the line moves fast! 5/5 vibes - chill, laidback, good vibes overall

    This establishment should reinstate taking phone orders to improve wait times and friendlier customers service. Ok food but needs a wider range of salsa - ok food though

    Always come for the ambiance, horses and interesting ppl. Food good enough, no complaints.

    Basecamp Breakfast Burrito
    Darian E.

    Dinette is a nature/hiking themed brunch and cafe in south Burbank near the LA River. The restaurant styles itself on the small, inconspicuous little joints seen in US National Parks. While a decent local place with personality, and a slight hipster vibe, I left slightly disappointed. On an early Friday morning, an old friend and I caught up; you order at the front register, and I asked the staff what Dinette was most famous for and what she recommended; she suggested the Basecamp Breakfast Burrito ($13); this came with a side of hash browns. Accompanying this was a rather generic cappuccino ($4.50). The burrito was disappointing, which was fairly dry, filled with too many hashbrowns, and a little overcooked. While thankfully saved by a decent, slightly spicy salsa, I would suggest more eggs, bacon, cheese, and to drop the hashbrowns altogether. The hash browns were fairly generic, and a little overcooked as well. The ambiance is relaxed and outdoorsy, and the staff friendly but not effusive. The food came fairly quickly (10-15 minutes). The prices, while not extortionate, were fairly middling for somewhat lackluster food. Perhaps I would have been better served by a better entree choice or one of the many tasty bakery items in their window, but alas I try what was recommended. More lodge diner than national park gourmet, Basecamp Dinette is a fair choice for a middling meal with relaxed, national park vibes. Food: 3/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Value 3.5/5

    Hot Horchata Latte
    Janna C.

    Trendy little coffee shop tucked in on Riverside that offers coffee, beers and brunch. I tried the Hot Horchata Latte with oat milk and would love to come back here to try the food. The space had an earthy, filled by locals vibe. Definitely lives up to its name "Basecamp." They still accept cash which is nice. The entrance is easy to miss so enter near the white tents, not the corner shop. The person and the register and the barista were very pleasant. The third person at the bar was not so much.

    This is my second time dining here. The space is great and there's ample seating inside and outside. The first time I ordered breakfast tacos which were delightful. This time I ordered French toast which wasn't a fave sadly. I'd still recommend and will likely bring any friends visiting to this spot

    Great spot! Friendly staff and food is amazing! I came by during my break from clinical and was in a time crunch, the line was long because it was a Sunday during lunch time. Maybe pre-order online and pick up if you're ever in a rush. They have seats like picnic style outside, and more seats, bar style and couches inside. They also have pastries right by the entrance, which I will probably try next time! I had their Base-ic burger and Iced Matcha Latte! The burger was juicy and the portion is great! I had the fries and the cut is not the usual ones you see out there and I enjoyed it. The Matcha Latte hit the spot Will definitely come back and try other things (maybe when I'm not in a rush )

    Cute inside

    First time at Basecamp/Scouts Honor BBQ! It's a charming spot with nice service. We were initially confused about parking, as both share the same building. Basecamp's food ends at 3 PM, but beverages are available. Scouts Honor BBQ was delicious and affordable. The BBQ falls apart easily and melts in your mouth. I loved the breakfast tacos, you can sub for beyond meat and the hazelnut latte. You can sub the milk with non-dairy.

    WE LOVE BASECAMP! This has quickly become our favorite weekend spot - they have amazing drinks & food (their Horchata Latte & Dirty Chai is awesome...also had their veggie omelette and Lavender waffles ) They have plenty of shaded outdoor seating, the staff is kind and you never have to wait long! PLUS it's located in the Rancho Equestrian Neighborhood so chances are you'll see people ride by on horses while you sip your coffee! Definitely put this place at the top of your list

I've been hesitant because it is in a trickier area, but I had no issues pulling in or parking! They have a few spots in the front, but otherwise I'm sure there is parking around the neighborhood. You walk inside to order and it is not a fancy looking place, but the people cooking the meat definitely know what they're doing!! It felt like an authentic Texas bbq spot. I didn't want the frills, I just wanted good food and that's what I got. I sat at a little table outside which was perfectly pleasant! The road wasn't too loud or anything. But really, the sandwich was SO good. I doused it in the spicy bbq and added the pickles and coleslaw and I ate the WHOLE thing. I shouldn't have. But it was great!! I want to come back and try their other bbq meats and sides!! I loved the pulled pork sandwich and would recommend sharing it if you do order it. Yum!! The service was great, too!!

    The accurate rain forecast changed our Sunday adventuring plans, but considering the food we were…read moregoing to get into, BBQ felt like a sensible substitute. We hadn't visited since February, 2020. Before the pandemic might as well have been 10 years ago, if the world shut down 6 years ago. We were overdue for a followup visit. Judging by how the food went down, we were sore for it. We ordered the Big Tex: four meats and four sides - tri-tip, brisket, pulled pork and links; kale greens, bbq beans, mac and cheese and fries. We opted for the cornbread in the roll slot. It should be the top meats in your order, by premium scale and availability, but more often than they should be, the brisket/tri-tip selections are, 90%, obligatory orders. I think I have a love/hate relationship with the way LA treats the pepperoni pizza of bbq meats. Swinging Door broke us off proper though. Not too fatty. Great tenderism. And the accompanying sauce complemented the smoked all stars, rather than compensated for lack of flavor. Didn't stop me from loving their Whiskey bbq sauce though. The beans were a true bbq side, swimming in a mild sauce and containing lovely chunks of link. And the kale greens - sheesh - I think they might've switched to kale since our first visit. An effective exercise in alternative ruffage that holds seasoning and jucies for a similar bbq/soulfoud bite. We live further away now. Took the food to go, to prevent the intermittent rain from foiling more of our plans. It traveled well. And since I'm using our leftover bbq sauce on every other meal I cook, I'd say we successfully made do with our lunch substitute.

Imagine rows of radicchio, rainbow chard, exquisite endive, squash blossoms, sunchokes and artichokes, fennel with their fronds tangled in long red chilies surrounded by pungent herbs like perilla, lovage, tarragon. An extra star just for that. But... My only gripe is their weekly Saturday BBQ. Through the years I have enjoyed both kinds of ribs, the brisket, sausages, turkey and chicken that they cook and smoke right outside in the parking lot. Even if you don't see it, you'll smell it within a couple blocks. I can't think of a better way to promote a bbq business and Handy Market knows it. They're counting on all the new customers who get lured in by the intoxicating scent of grilled meats on live fire to try this sad, sorry excuse that they call BBQ. All the meats are dry, tasteless and overcooked. They do not season any of the meat, not even a lick of salt. They want you to buy their sugary bbq sauce and baste them on the grill. Meaning you still have to finish cooking it at home but it was tasty enough and the price was low so it was worth doing for many years. Lately though, it's been expensive and inedible. The quality of all the meat has become sus and I was sold the driest beef ribs with texture like leather, that they probably dug up from the back of a freezer and a smelly turkey leg that's left over from like, Thanksgiving. My homemade bbq sauce could not save either meat and suffice to say I will never order barbecue from here again. What's happened to you, Handy Mart? I just can't believe you've slipped so far. This is the worst bbq in all of LA and I cannot recommend anyone eating here. Those brave souls who do not heed this cautionary tale cannot say you haven't been warned. Good luck.
