Pizza
Shane A.

I really wanted to like this one, but the food missed the mark for me. The pizza looked great when it came out, but unfortunately it was really sloppy. There was way too much sauce, it was dripping everywhere, and the crust/dough seemed undercooked. It was difficult to even pick up a slice without everything sliding off. The Caesar salad wasn't much better. It was completely loaded with dressing, had a very heavy fish/anchovy flavor, and surprisingly there were no croutons. Between the amount of dressing and the strong flavor, it overpowered what should have been a pretty simple Caesar. Overall, not terrible, but definitely not what I was expecting.

They have a lot of bakery options and we ordered several things to try. Bacon bread was pretty hard and difficult to eat but the other pastries were good. Also ordered matcha shaved ice. It was sweet and had a strong matcha flavor. There were fruit and salads if you wanted something lighter. I really liked the interior too. The wood tones, pottery and different decorations gave it an antique feel and each area had its own theme.

On the morning of Sunday, August 2, we had a family breakfast at Boul'ange. I think I've been here about five or six times so far. Back in January, I came here for brunch with about 10 members of my group. At that time, they didn't accept reservations, so my friend and I had to arrive very early just to secure a large table for everyone. It was quite a struggle. Afterward, I mentioned in my Yelp review that not accepting reservations was very inconvenient. Whether my review had any influence or not, I noticed on a later visit that they had started displaying a "Reserve for Table" sign. So, a few days ago, I called ahead and made a reservation for six people at 9:30 a.m. I originally wanted to order a pizza, but I was told that pizza is only available after 11:00 a.m., so I couldn't order it. At first, I was thinking about getting the Avocado Toast, but then I found out that the Boul'ange Breakfast comes with a croissant, butter, and jam, so I changed my order. The Boul'ange Breakfast included three slices of bacon, scrambled eggs, cherry tomatoes, and a croissant. As for everyone else's orders, one of my brothers had the Breakfast Sandwich, my other brother ordered the Boul'ange Breakfast, my mom also had the Boul'ange Breakfast, one of my mom's friends who was visiting from Korea ordered the Greek Salad, and another one of her friends had the Salmon Toast. We all drank Americanos, and for dessert, we shared a slice of carrot cake. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor dining area is quite spacious and comfortable, which I really like. However, compared to my visit a few months ago, I noticed that they have added more outdoor tables. Another thing I like about this place is that parking is free, the food is always delicious, and the staff are consistently friendly and welcoming. One thing I noticed this time, which I hadn't seen before, was that they were selling stationery. Another nice feature is that you can help yourself to as much sparkling water as you like.

A very spacious cafe with gorgeous pastries. My friend and I shared a kale salad with chicken and fries, because we were feeling naughty. I love the openness of the space. They accommodate large parties well. I love the friendly staff. My friend says they can get busy during lunch.

This is hands down my favorite spot in LA!! The best food and drinks, best ambiance, best service, and I feel so at home here. I almost always leave here with a croissant because it's the best. It gets pretty packed so get there early!

Wow. 5 stars solely based on the ambiance itself. A friend of mine showed me this spot and it was great. Boul'ange is one of the nicest coffee spots I have been to. The ambiance speaks for itself. Pair that with good food and drinks? Match made in heaven. I tried their matcha and chai latte. The matcha latte is more focused on the matcha flavor which I can appreciate. I personally do like it a little sweeter but in a place like Boul'ange , they focus on quality and want the ingredients to stand out. The chai latte was great! Really good flavor and not overpowering. I also got to try their mushroom pizza which tasted so fresh. Simple ingredients made it so well balanced. Service was amazing. Orders were taken fast and drinks/food came out fast as well. Overall , would love to come back and show even more people this spot!

Love the vibes and at atmosphere at Boul'ange. It's great if you want to get some work done or even if you wanna catch up with friends and family bc there is ample seating indoors and outdoor patio as well. Parking lot adjacent to the store. They also have lunch and dinner options if you want to dine in. Service is amazing here even if you want to just grab a coffee; they're attentive and very kind. They bake their pastries daily and they rly are indeed delicious and fresh.

After several visits to Boul'Ange on Fairfax, I think I've gotten a good sense of what this café does well and where it's falling short. First, the positives. The space is beautiful. It's one of those cafés that works equally well for brunch, meeting friends, or simply stopping in for coffee and pastries. The atmosphere is inviting, the décor is well thought out, and it's a place you genuinely want to spend time in. They also offer something that's surprisingly difficult to find in one place: solid coffee, good food, and quality pastries. Unfortunately, the biggest issue has been consistency in the kitchen. Every visit we've ordered many of the same dishes, yet they've come out noticeably different each time. Sometimes the food is well executed, and other times it's almost unrecognizable compared to a previous visit. Even the chicken has varied from one visit to the next. As a customer, you shouldn't have to wonder whether you'll receive the same dish you enjoyed before or something completely different. Our most recent visit was the most disappointing. My friend ordered a salad with a side of chicken and specifically requested no cheese due to a dairy allergy. The salad still arrived with cheese. Instead of remaking it, it appeared the kitchen simply removed the visible cheese and returned the same salad. It was obvious from how the salad looked after it came back, and while eating it we still found pieces of cheese, confirming it had not been remade. When someone has a food allergy, that's simply not an acceptable way to handle the situation. My fried chicken sandwich was equally disappointing. The piece of chicken was barely half the size of the bun, making the sandwich feel poorly assembled and completely out of proportion. It was disappointing enough that I asked for a refund. On top of that, this wasn't an isolated experience. We've had mistakes with our orders on previous visits, and during multiple visits we also noticed other customers dealing with incorrect orders as well. That points to a broader issue rather than a one-time mistake. I also think the manager on duty during our last visit could have handled the situation better. Strong management is essential in a café with this much potential, especially when mistakes happen. Boul'Ange has all the ingredients to become one of the better cafés in the area. The space is excellent, the coffee is solid, and the pastries are genuinely good. Right now, though, the kitchen lacks consistency, and until those operational issues are addressed, it's difficult to know what kind of experience you'll have from one visit to the next.

Croissant and Matcha Latte
Hee K.

Okay, this place is spacious and so well-decorated. It is perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done alone. Didn't get to try food besides a croissant, which I thought was super buttery. The matcha latte doesn't come sweetened and you can ask for a sweetener. I am definitely going to come back for a brunch or lunch soon.

Tempura cauliflower
Gina M.

I love this place. What a pleasant surprise! The place itself is amazing - large open veranda with built in sofa lining almost the entire wall with tables for both groups and couples. Perfect place to relax, hang out and enjoy perfect LA weather. It's also very dog friendly - which a big plus for me. Inside is very tastefully decorated with and an exhibit of ceramic art - and two counters to order from, one side is for coffee and the other is for food. Their food is good, clean and tasty. We ordered the tempura cauliflower, crosscut fries and arugula snow salad. Well priced too. Also everyone who works there seems to like what they're doing. Friendly, warm and very helpful. Only thing is, parking can be difficult. There is a small parking lot, but with the size of this place it's easily full - so good luck with find street parking. And I went during off hours. Hope you do find parking, because it's so worth hanging out here. Loved it.

I've been to Boul'ange a few times for brunch eats now and I just love it. The staff has always been over~the~top (but in a good way) nice when I've been in. Just so friendly and kind, really willing to help, be patient - like Disney level service in here. It's refreshing to receive such great treatment at a morning spot! I also like that they have a huge indoor space for seating, plus plenty of outdoor seats. I've sat in the patio area both times I've gone and was impressed with servers being able to always find us. They give you a number to take for your order to the table and then they'll bring your eats & drinks out. Now both times I've gone, I've had the Breakfast Sandwich. The chino valley organic pasture raised scrambled eggs are done perfectly with a piquillo emulsion on a brioche bun. I absolutely love having this for breakfast. Their Caesar salad was very fresh with light dill, parmesan reggiano and house-made caesar dressing sprinkled on top. Finally, their pastries are just divine! The matcha cookie is chewy and soft in all the right ways with tasty flavor. The blueberry brioche was covered in berries and tasted fantastic. The conchas are great - loved my matcha one. I haven't tried any of the coffee drinks yet but surely will on a future visit. However the ~ *Butterfly Pea Flower Refresher ($8) *Yuzu Lemonade ($5) *Lavender Lemonade ($5) -are all excellent drinks and so darn pretty. I'm totally obsessed with Boul'ange right now and will absolutely be back to try more on the menu. I haven't even tried the lunch/dinner menu yet properly. I'm a fan and so happy to have them in the 'hood.

interior space shared between order counter, espresso bar, & ceramic shop

where do i even begin with boul'ange? it is a dream come true...the ideal cafe for working or enjoying with good company! AMBIANCE the space is bright, spacious, & beautifully curated. there is a very obvious attention to details here! there is a wide range of seating available indoors and outdoors: chairs for lounging, chairs for working, and chairs for yapping. the interior feels elevated yet welcoming. SERVICE staff are not only bright and personable but also attentive. on my first visit, a staff member was going to each unoccupied table to change the water for the fresh flowers. wifi is provided to customers at the time of purchase but capped at 1 hour per order (not item). PARKING i'm a huge fan of the free, dedicated parking lot provided to customers--something that feels like a rarity in this part of town! FOOD & DRINK brunch menu is available 7am - 3pm, while dinner menu is available 3pm - 9:45pm. pizzas are made to order from 11am onward. if you choose to dine in, your order (even if it's just a croissant) is served on a gorgeous ceramic plate. everything i have sampled from the menu thus far has been good and reasonably priced for the portions! croissants were flaky on the outside, soft and sweet on the inside. 01. latte with house-made sweetener (maple cinnamon) 8.5/10 02. chocolate croissant: 7.8/10 03. almond croissant: 8/10 04. smoked salmon focaccia 7.5/10 excellent amount of lemon zest & capers!! 05. mushroom pizza 7/10 06. short rib poutine 8/10 07. campfire cookie 7.8/10

I liked the vibe of this spot. It was packed however. The servers were really nice and everything was pretty quick service wise. Definitely a nice spot to grab a latte and pastry or meet up with a friend. I have not tried the food or dining. My friend got a pain au chocolat and an olive oil cake. We felt the pain au chocolat was just ok (an odd butteriness. Not bad, just odd? I'm also super picky on croissants and pain au chocolat in general though. We didn't like that it wasn't warmed either). The olive oil cake was pretty good. He got an iced latte and said it was fine. I got a matcha latte with oat milk and enjoyed it. Definitely feel like their beverages are great. I got an oatmeal cookie and thought it was on the smaller side and kind of mid flavour profile. Not bad though, perhaps I should have tried something else. I'd definitely come back to try more drinks and maybe bread? It's called boul'ange after all and I didn't try too many of their pastries. Will check out other reviews and see what's worth tasting! All in all a cute spot.

Do they take reservations for dinner?

Thank you for your question! We currently do not take reservations.

Are dogs allowed?

I have seen someone come in briefly with a dog and left so maybe they sat outside. I don't think dogs are supposed to be in the space.

What is the outlet situation? Is this a good place to plug in and work, or not so much?

Great and beautiful space to work in. I've done it.

Is there parking?

I believe there's a small parking lot but it gets full

We went to De La Nonna for book club, and while I had been here once before and remembered enjoying…read moreit, I feel like this second visit I was really able to settle in and appreciate the food. The Caesar salad was probably one of the best Caesar salads I've had. It was light, crisp, and refreshing without feeling overly heavy. We also had the crudo, which was excellent, and the burrata with tomatoes and crispy bread -- so simple but so good. Everyone at the table was loving it. But the pizzas were definitely a highlight for me. I love the square shape and that thick, crispy dough. And the chili oil they give you on the side is SO good. Such a great little touch and definitely something I kept going back to. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a really nice patio and a lovely indoor space. The staff was friendly, they have a great wine list, and we had a delicious Blanc de Blancs sparkling that paired perfectly with dinner. Overall, De La Nonna is just a great restaurant for a relaxed dinner with good food, good wine, and good company. I'm glad I got to come back because I definitely appreciated it even more this time around.

The dough was extremely soft and had a texture more like sliced bread than a properly baked pizza crust. The service was also questionable. The cashier didn't seem familiar with the menu and was trying to handle three different things at once, which made the whole ordering process feel disorganized. Overall, the atmosphere has potential, but the food and service didn't live up to it.

They were all really good, but the Saint Barb stood out to me. What really made the night, though, was our server, Jayson.

Great food, great service, and an awesome night overall. Can't wait to go back! Just a heads-up: it's Echo Park/Silver Lake, so parking can be tough, as expected. You'll find a spot.

Servers were also very friendly and the interior is cozy and clean. Parking is street parking, good luck. We arrived 5:15pm on a Saturday (15 min after opening) and we didn't get reservations so we had to wait one hour to dine in. We could have gotten it to-go, but there's only 1.5 tables outside where you can stand and eat in front of all the people waiting. Even after getting seated and ordering, it still took a while for the food to arrive. Seating is tight inside and my partner & I were seated at a 4 seat table next to two women, so we couldn't help but listen to their entire conversation about going to therapy & problems with their moms. The princess cake is good but I'm not sure what the hype is. I don't think it's worth $15... I would just stick to the pizza if I come back. I do have to say the pizza is very greasy, so much that it did end up hurting my stomach, but I still enjoyed each bite.
