    I work across the street and I'm currently pregnant I've always passed by this little shop it's always packed which is why I never had a chance to try it out this time I said let me go on my break and see if I can squeeze my 10 minute break to get breakfast and the owner delivered thank goodness , He was so nice and quick! And the food omg I will be returning! So good and affordable my pregnant self is super happy I got to try out the breakfast sandwich with bacon I would walk pass here and smell the bacon which is why I would wanna try definitely come and try this place you won't be disappointed :) thank you!

    Bagel with egg cheese and butter, toasted. I devoured the other half sorry

    I love this place a lot. The guy is fast with great customer service, it's the perfect spot to grab a bagel sandwich before work. And it's one of those heavenly + affordable bagels where it has you questioning how he put so much love into it in the 1 minute it takes him to make it. Love it! :)

    I just inhaled half this sandwich then decided to leave a review lol. I'm obsessed with this cute little cafe right by my building! It gives NY vibes which I absolutely love being from NY :) great service and wonderful food and coffee! Will def be coming here 3+ times a week!

    Since I'm working from home during quarantine time and living in DTLA, I've been trying the places that open only during weekdays that I could never try before. This place is one of them. I always wanted to try but they're closed during weekends. Got a croissant sandwich with egg, bacon and cheese. Also ordered white chocolate latte. They're big, filling, and delicious :) The staff was very friendly too. It's perfect for breakfast or lunch. I'd recommend both of what I had. It's a very tiny place with decent yummy food. And I'd like to support them especially during this time.

    Ok, I walk past this café every single morning when I take my dog out. I knew it was a small place (mom & pop shops are the best!) but I didn't know it was family owned! Score! I was particularly hangry today and too impatient to order something delivery, so I took my dog downstairs for a quick walk and popped in next door. Honestly--the bulgogi plate is f'n delicious here!! You can tell this is a Korean-family owned cafe--they really put love into their food and presentation. I ate all the rice, daikon (daikon is my favorite.. raaaadish!) and salad first--I'm stuffed!! I also ordered spam musubi as a comfort food for me, and I am too full to eat it! Late night snack, it is! They also make boba tea, which I haven't had a chance to try yet (and which I'm glad for, since the institution of 85 Degrees across the way is closed, perhaps for good ). Finally, they have a slew of American menu items and pastries for the grab and go consumer (brekkie burritos, etc). So happy I finally tried this place, can't wait to try the spicy pork next!

    Cafe Dolcini is a small breakfast and lunch spot located in the heart of DTLA. The store is run by a really sweet Korean lady and frequented by many people that work in the nearby offices. The store itself is really small and only have 2 small tables on Grand Avenue to sit. I would say this is more of a grab and go place instead of dine-in sandwich store. The store itself is sandwiched between a printing store (at the corner of Grand x Wilshire) and Shoe Wiz/ Casey's. Great spot if you want to grab a bagel, sandwich, or a ricebox during lunchtime. One of my favorite items to order from Cafe Dolcini is their Curry Rice. Food is comforting and she usually give generous portions. I can easily split my order into two meals. Suggest bringing cash if you want to buy food here because she will charge you a service fee for using credit card. Try coming a few minutes before the peak lunch hours to beat the crowd.

    Cafe Dolcini is a super small shop on Grand Ave that you've probably passed a quarter million times to get to the better-known lunch spots in the area, but let me tell you, it is SO worth a visit. I've passed this place all the time walking from the US Bank tower to chipotle and have always just eyed the photos of Korean food they have posted on the windows. But today as I was walking to Chipotle, I stopped and figured why not and.. Why didn't I come visit earlier?!? A sandwich place at half the price of Mendocino Farms and Specialitys?! Delicious Korean food so close to work?! Although they are better known for their sandwiches and croissants, Cafe Dolcini also serves Spicy Pork, Beef Bulgogi, and Jap Chae with a side of rice and its SO worth it. I got the Spicy Pork with rice, allowed her to put some veggies and sriracha on it and then bam, one of the best lunches I've had in a while. A suitable portion size and just the right amount of spice. 10/10 would come back.

    I find this cafe to be outstanding, with quality service everyday. I've been coming here every morning since working DTLA and I can say Chris is very professional and hard working each and every day. By the way there are two Starbucks locations within one mile from this cafe and I still prefer to come here than go to them. Like I mentioned the quality of food and coffee and specially the orange juice is better than it's competitors. Star

    I came here for the poke stops :) Spicy pork with rice ($6.75): it was not good at all. The pork wasn't chewy and not tasty. Watermelon juice ($4.00): I was disappointed with this watermelon juice. Not good :( QUICK TIP: YOU CAN SIT HERE AND CLICK ON THE POKE STOPS!! 2 stars!! I really wanted to love this place :( Cafe Dolcini is not yummylicious!!

The quality of food is second to none. Not only are the workers and owners just simply fantastic, their food is too. Our favorites are the MCB (nova lox, tomato, onion, capers & plain cream cheese on an everything bagel) and the Loxsmith (nova lox, crispy salmon skin, radish, pickled fennel, dill & beet cream cheese on an everything bagel). The MCB shines above all the other sandwiches for me and it's our favorite breakfast in the morning. Every bagel has the right amount of chewiness that we all love. My family and I would walk and frequent this place every morning to start the day with their fantastic bagels when we lived in the area. Oh how much we miss the living in Highland Park with the awesome shops and restaurants this city has! They also do platters and we've ordered for pick up for our office meetings too and everyone loves it! You can preorder everything online and set a day and time to pick up.

    5/27/2026 4 Stars -…read moreminus 1 Star for lack in parking spaces. First time at Belle's. PEC Got it on a plain bagel. The bagel was fluffy and had a nice chew! Herby mayo, hot sweet peppers had a hint of spice, pastrami was soft and not too salty, egg was fluffy. It was a good bagel sandwich. However, I don't think I'd reorder this. LATKE Crispy and savory. The sourcream and apple sauce together was delicious. Absolutely loved the apple sauce, which had a beautiful texture and sweetness that was addictive. The star was the applesauce! SALT BAGEL, EVERYTHING BAGEL, CACIO E PEPE, EVERYTHING PUMPERNICKEL BAGEL All of the untoasted bagels except the Cacio e Pepe, had a firm outer texture, a bit hard to tear apart with hands. Inside the bagels were dense, yet had a light chewy texture and not dry either. Toasted, they were even better. The outer crust was beautifully crispy and the inside bagel was soft and chewy. The beet cream cheese was delicious with all the bagels! Cacio e Pepe was soft all around, unlike the other bagels. Cacio e Pepe had a light cheese and black pepper crust. It wasn't full of cacio e pepe flavor right off the bat, but still enough to know what you're eating. If you ate only the top bagel, I think you'll get the best of this bagel. Still good all around, even toasted. I think it will be great as a bagel sandwich. Everything Pumpernickle had a good pumpernickle flavor in addition to the everything seasonings. They did not skimp on the seasonings! Every inch of that bagel was covered in seasonings! Favorite Bagels: Salt Bagel, Everything Bagel BEET CREAM CHEESE Delicious! Smooth, creamy, almost buttery! This is whipped cream cheese with roasted beet puree. Light in beet flavor, it had dill in it too. I was hesitant in getting a tub because it was on the pricier side. But it was so good, glad I got it! SEATS / AMBIANCE It had a lovely East Coast diner feel when walking in. But still, the space felt a bit cluttered. There were booths, counter seats and outdoor seats too. It was packed inside on a Wednesday lunch. Got there before noon. CUSTOMER SERVICE Overall good, friendly service. Staff was smiling and that's always a good thing! Went on a Wednesday before noon, but it was nearly packed. PARKING Horrible. Just horrible. Street parking only. There's a few spots directly in front of Belle's, but it's metered parking too and also it was full. It's parking that always makes or breaks your experience when driving to LA. After driving around to find a decent parking spot, I finally found one close to Belle's, but after parking, I realized it was a loading zone. So hurried to get my food to go and just ate in the car. Overall, I enjoyed the bagels here and would love to return for their bagels and lunch offerings.

It scratched my urge and was perfectly seasoned. I'm really big on texture when it comes to my food and this bagel had the elements I needed.

We take our number and go sit and wait at the small blue tables outside like most everyone else. Strike one was their being out of fresh made orange juice, something that should NEVER happen at a bagel purveyor... oh, and my coffee? Was only technically that. Seriously. It tasted more like tea to the point that I questioned whether or not they in fact got my order wrong and it was that. Flavorless. (2/10) I like my salmon bagel and the ratios were pretty on point with there being maybe just a tad too much cream cheese. For $20, this was what I expected and I appreciated the quality olive oil drizzled over the quality ingredients to keep it all moist. Loved the tomato and capers. It's a big meal and half of it went home for later. (8/10) My date's bagel was a nightmare though. Thick wedge of cream cheese on a barely toasted bagel, she had to wipe half of it off just to eat it. And as for this being a "hatch cream cheese?" Like calling my brown water broth 'coffee,' I'd suggest that it only technically met up to the definition: there were 2-3 little chunks of hatch chile. Seriously. Two or three. The white cream cheese hardly had any smell or taste of hatch chile. I know as I ate the other half she took home. Dispel any fantasy you might be harboring of that cool, greenish cream cheese with real chunks of smoked hatch chiles because that doesn't exist here. (2/10) So there you have it. For close to $40 when you factor in tax and tip? This was barely a 3 star bagel experience. Order with care and intention.
