Not all is lost, though, as they're conjoining with kippered down the street. I'm not sure if the sandwiches will survive the merger but I hope they do. I had an incredible ham toasted sandwich with a crispy cheese skirt that I saved for last. Will definitely have to come check out the cheese during Portuguese cheese week in the future at Kippered!

When I finally tried DTLA Cheese Superette, it turned out that they would be closing several weeks…read morelater. However, I'm happy I got to visit twice and am happy that their sister spot Kippered will still live on. This place sold a variety of items including cheese, cured meats, tinned fish, and other foods. I found the service to be approachable and welcoming, and it was nice to have a relaxed place to have a meal that was also close to Grand Central Market. During my first visit, I tried their breakfast/brunch menu and was impressed by their pancakes with their thin and crispy texture. The pancakes were so good, I knew that I had to try them again before the shop closed. Now that the market has closed, I am hoping that some of their food menu items will show up at Kippered.

This is a great local find for gourmet cheeses and accoutrement! I had a delicious muffuletta…read moresandwich and it was so appealing that my friend got the same. I purchased two cheeses, bread, "spaghetti dust" and Fat Gold olive oil for use at home. Service was fantastic - the structure seems to be an attendant who helps you choose what you'd like and helps you from start to check out. There is a sandwich counter with premade offerings that vary somewhat from day to day. I understand that I could've preordered cheese plate and so you can bet I'll do that next time! The shop is small and sort of dark, but the counter is lovely and has great offerings. There are a few tables outside with tiny stools (they do not cater to the Sir-Mix-A-lot crowd!) and a tapered bench next to the window. I think I'll pick up and eat at home next time.

The lady took a dance class nearby and got me a baguette sandwich for us to share as a late…read moreafternoon snack. She got us The HBB, which is French ham, brie and herbed butter. It was real good. I liked its flavor although I wish it had more ham in it. The bread was a little tough the lady said. It was at the end of their day and the last one left. Maybe that had something to do with it. Nevertheless, I liked it. I love a simple but flavorful French baguette sandwich and this was a good one with 3 quality ingredients plus the bread. I believe this was $10. I hope to check Milkfarm out for all their other offerings. We plan on doing that together soon. Street parking only. Metered out front. Some free but timed parking on the side streets. Check the signs.

Loved this restaurant so much we went two nights in a row…read more Didn't take a photo of the radiatori arrabbiata, but that pasta was my absolute favorite thing on the menu. Food and service were spectacular. In the front of the space it's more casual, but there's plenty of seating and a gorgeous outdoor patio in the back. If you are in Pasadena, I HIGHLY recommend coming here!

This place was good, not great. It felt like the main focus was more on the cheese shop and…read morespecialty items than the restaurant itself. I'm a huge cheese lover and order cheeseboards regularly, so I was excited to try theirs. It was fine, but nothing memorable. The cheeses were good quality, but I've had boards at other places that were much more impressive taste-wise. Beautiful presentation though. The rest of the food was decent too. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out either. It's been a few weeks, but I couldn't really tell you what we ordered without looking at my pictures. I'd stop by again if I were in the area, especially to browse the shop, but I wouldn't consider the restaurant a must stop.

Didn't get any photos when I stopped by since it was a quick visit but this place is perfect…read more Perfectly quaint, amazing quality, and lovely customer service. The shop smells so funky from all of the cheeses and different items they carry but it's not terrible. A little small but easy to navigate through. I was looking forward to trying their four-alarm spicy cheese but they did not have it available. Only had time to try a couple of cheeses and couldn't order much to go since I was traveling but really want to go back and buy tons of cheese and bread.

I drove to this cheese store with my lovely fiancé for one of her birthday treats. She heard of…read morethis store on TikTok and asked to go! I wasn't expecting much as I'm not what you call a cheese connoisseur, but let me tell you.. this store SLAPS! The team at this store is very friendly and knowledgeable, we tried several samples and everything is top notch. We ended up swooping 4 different aged cheeses (so good you could eat them by themselves as treats) but the highlight of the day for me was the sandwich I had! I didn't know they serve sandwiches, and I ordered a ribeye, havarti, horseradish sandwich on ciabatta. This sandwich is the best sandwich I ever had in my life, this is no exaggeration, it is very simple but all the ingredients are high quality and executed perfectly. Although Beverly Hills is a long drive from where I'm from, I will be a returning customer for both cheese and sandwiches!

I crave their pesto sausage pasta often. The atmosphere is a little wired but definitely worth it.read more

listen to the reviews if you care about customer service!…read more AMBIANCE: place is small with some bar chairs indoors and some small tables outdoors. definitely ideal for takeout rather than dine in. SERVICE: i came in a bit before 5pm and the place was open but totally empty. no workers in sight, so i just put in my order on the kiosk. i expected some kind of notification for someone working but the receipt just printed and still nobody came out. worried my 15 minutes of free parking was going to end before i got my food i yelled out "excuse me!" and finally an girl comes out of the back. doesn't say a word or acknowledge me at all, so i start to offer a sorry and explain that i just wanted to make sure someone was there, but quickly realize im going to be ignored. when she's done, she plops my bag of my food on the table, says "here you go" and walks into the back again. FOOD: drove to where i was staying a few minutes away and i was surprised to find out it was completely cold. please correct me if im wrong but i had assumed at least the bread would be warm?? it was fine since i was able to stick it in the toaster for a bit and it ended up being pretty good! overall a fairly (for LA) priced lunch. BACK TO SERVCE: however based on my experience and the other recent reviews i truly don't understand what is going on with the people who work here. is everyone okay???? atp im truly concerned as to why all the workers seem to be miserable... its also an insane contrast in attitude from the parking attendant who was working outside. he was the nicest guy ever and i truly think the owner of this place should consider hiring him instead. i guarantee it would make a huge difference.

It helped that it wasn't crowded. The outdoor seating is nice. My friend and I shared the vegan BFF board. You get to select two cheeses. I highly recommend the brie. We thought we might also order a sandwich, but everything on the board along with a glass of wine for each of us was just the right amount of food for the 2 of us. I'm so glad this place has vegan options. I'm looking forward to trying their other cheeses, vegan meats, and their sandwiches.

I shouldn't have to bring in my receipt to verify if my transaction was within the happy hour time…read moreframe. You can look at the transaction on your computer and notice the error yourself. As a guest in your restaurant we should not be gaslit by your server or owner. Be honest about your marketing, specials, and teach your staff what good customer service is. I didn't make a fuss or was a "Karen" while in the empty restaurant. Nothing is made from scratch and waiting over an hour for food, having zero check-ins by the service is rude. We were not welcome and will not be coming back. While you might be glad that we are not coming back, as a small business this reflects within the community of Fullerton. An acknowledgement of your error is what I asking from you. Not a free meal or even a credit back on our transaction. As a former small business owner myself, how our staff and ourselves act when there is a misunderstanding shows the integrity of the business. That's what I was upset about after my birthday meal. I felt taken advantage of and then gaslighting me asking me to bring in my receipt to show proof of coming in at 2:30 for happy hour. Do better, be better, and show integrity.

It was pretty quiet, yet we were barely greeted by the staff. To make matters worse, another patron was changing their 2-year-old's diaper right there on the patio. It was completely "butt baked" and extremely unappetizing while trying to eat. Food we ordered : * Pâté Sandwich: The pâté itself was actually good, but it was ruined by a ton of mustard. I had to scrape it off just to eat it as the mustard completely overpowered the sandwich. * Salmon Sandwich: Very bland and lacked flavor. Side sales were bland. We had to ask for extra dressing. * Iced Coffee: There was something "weird" floating in my coffee. Between the hygiene issues on the patio, and the mediocre food, I won't be back. Maybe I should have just stuck with wine and cheese.
