    Such a cute takeout breakfast spot! I ordered the Rad Muffin and it was so filling and delicious. I'd soo come back. Their whole menu sounded very good. The Rad Muffin comes with scrambled eggs, Black Forest ham, and American cheese toasted on an English muffin with their own secret sauce. My sandwich was also piping hot coming straight from the kitchen so it tasted very fresh and the combination of flavors was amazing. The special sauce was the perfect amount of spicy too.

    Forced gratuity added by Flake, lovely.

    I am only commenting on the forced tipping. I tapped my card. The employee did the rest. And by the rest, I mean adding a tip. This is not a tipping type of establishment. I stand on the corner. Wait in line to order, walk up to pick up my food when they call the name. Find my own table, if I'm lucky to find one , and throw my trash away. There is no service! I was so offended to see the tip on my receipt. Food is great. I've been here maybe 10x, though I must say I'm turned off by my last visit.

    Tuna Salad Sando $15.50

    As a venice local, I hate to leave a poor review but this is not the first time the quality of an order has been below expectations. I would pay local for quality, but to be served a $15 sandwich with this lack of care is extremely disappointing.

    Turner egg burrito and ask for avocado too. Don't miss their special sauce. Green sauce has heat not spicy
    Colette C.

    One of the best breakfast spots in Venice! I had the egg and turkey burrito with avocado. Savory. Now sweet craving for their gluten-free buttered banana bread was amazing. Breakfast of champions! Delicious food, fast and friendly service, and well priced. Definitely worth it. Great local spot right on Rose.

    Burrito size and tomatillo salsa

    Always looking for the best breakfast burrito don't happen to be in Venice. Had to try this place based on the 1000+ reviews. Called in an order, very friendly and easy to understand over the phone. Burrito was ready in five minutes, even though it was quoted 15. Tried the turkey sausage burrito with tomatillo salsa. The salsa is a solid 10, was not expecting American cheese in the burrito, but it's still good. Definitely recommend not going on a Tuesday morning since there is almost no parking with street cleaning. It's a nice corner restaurant with plenty of tables around the sides and not too much traffic noise.

    The rad muffin
    Anny C.

    Hidden gem in Venice. It's a hole in the wall that has your breakfast favorites. We got the clubhouse croissant and the rad muffin. Both were delicious and highly recommend. Tastes like homemade sandwiches grandma made. There's limited seating outside, but we got a table easily on Sunday afternoon. There's street parking on Rose or in the neighborhood for a quick walk. The cashier was so sweet he even got my dog a piece of bacon. Usually you pick up the food at the window but they will walk your food to your table if you're dining in. Can't wait to come back and try something new!

    Some things are more difficult to customize online for example a coffee with a shot of espresso (my pops wanted this) so it was easier on the phone. Staff was friendly. The turkey sausage burrito was super juicy and yummy. Croissant sandwiches were good too. Parking was super easy as we went there right when the opened on a weekday. Prices were reasonable.

    If you're looking for an epic breakfast sandwich, look no further than FLAKE in Venice. Please order the Super Crojo: scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, smoked Gouda cheese, tomato, greens and a secret sauce on a toasted croissant. It is perfection. It cannot be outdone. There's a nice seating area outside, but limited tables so be ready to take your sandwich on the go!

    Turkey Sausage burrito. So delicious
    Gelin Cara T.

    Not bad of a place at all! I was in the area trying to kill time before a meeting in Santa Monica. I got there early due to the infamous traffic. This managed for me to have an amazing breakfast! Location is just the corner within the neighborhood right before heading to the beach. It's street parking, but at 8:30am on a weekday, it's super easy and got princess parking right at the front. You walk up and there were people trickling in and out. You can tell these are locals because they all had their dogs, they all were talking to each other, asking "where's ___?". It was nice. FOOD - I was TORN between getting a bacon or turkey sausage breakfast burrito. I usually measure how good they are based on bacon, but the local behind me said I MUST get the turkey sausage. I must say, it's delicious! There is no unnecessary fluff on these. Just a simple meat, egg, cheese breakfast burrito. I do wish I got the bacon, but guess I'll just have to come back! Service was friendly, helpful, and reasonably quick! You order inside and they call you to the pick-up window outside. They have a few tables outside to enjoy your food, which I took advantage of. Very delicious and their menu looks good too! I can't wait to come back

    Flake is a great quick place to check out if you are looking for brunch on Rose. You can't go wrong with the breakfast burrito and a coffee. I come here pretty regularly if I am looking for a quick bite to get my day started in Venice.

    Reggie veggie
    Yuri J.

    A very homey and affordable breakfast spot in Venice that serves classic breakfast food (burritos, egg sandwiches, salads and wraps). No indoor seating, with a few tables outside , it's a quick stop to get a hearty and simple breakfast in. The Reggie Veggie is delicious with eggs, cheese, lettuce and breakfast sausage (could've done without the sausage) on a whole wheat toast. It was just what I craved - simple and healthy. After reading reviews, I ordered the banana bread (buttered and toasted), and it was perfect!! Tastes homemade and so moist. Don't skip this!

    Bacon burrito
    Dee E.

    Seriously delicious!! I had rhe Rad Muffin. The ham is so good! Not tough, bland or too salty. Just right! The cheese will literally melt in your mouth. And their secret sauce is the real star. It's a perfect amount of spice. It tastes like chipotle, but I could be wrong. Ordered a bacon burrito. Came with a side of tomatillo sauce. Not spicy, but so good. Just wish it was a little more, I'll make sure to order some extra on the side. Love that they perfectly wrap up your food. And it will stay warm for almost an hour. My husband had to wait for his burrito at home and it didn't need to be reheated. The coffee is great! And the service was fantastic. Very kind and helpful staff! Plenty of seating for a quick bite. I was lucky enough to get a table with some shade. This will be my spot when heading to the beach in the morning. I can't wait to come back.

    Croissant egg sandwich

    A great grab and go breakfast spot with affordable prices. The breakfast sandwiches are all very good and come quick. Always add the banana bread - toasted - for a treat!

    Portions are small for the price they charge. Barely any meat in their breakfast burritos . Not worth it.

    I brought my boyfriend here for his 40th birthday. He is a total foodie. So I was excited to…read moresurprise him and take him here. I was super disappointed. When I reviewed the menu online the menu they offered or should I say had listed had a very wide array of different options to choose from. I was really excited to surprise him here. As we entered there was no staff around so we were just standing there for a while and a line began to form, the restaurant was not busy at all, but the bar was almost full. We were seated and our waiter was the most impersonal waiter ever, he never even said his name, to us. It was like he was a robot. Again to see that the menu was not the same was disappointing, yet our appetizer came out super fast and over all the food was bland and nothing special for the price point, yet it did come out hot, which was a plus. I had asked for the server to sing him happy birthday and for a desert to be brought out and I picked out the desert to add to the bill and he said that he could not do that service, yet before leaving 2 other servers were bringing out deserts and singing happy birthday to 2 other tables. The view was pretty, I'm sure this place is beautiful and wonderful for brunch, but for dinner this is not a place to be for elevated dining. I was better off taking him to SALT for a better dining and food experience.

    Food is always so good -- and consistently good! Thanks for keeping it going. We love it!read more

    A friend of mine gave us a gift card for here. Haven't been in ~10 years…read more Overall, the experience was really lovely. Booked a 6pm dinner reservation and showed up 15min early. The hostess was amazing and read that we wanted a more secluded table not next to big groups so she sat us against the window in the corner to the left of where you walk in. It was a lovely spot - the people watching was fantastic! Revelation #1: if you want a specific accommodation for your table, make sure to note it in your reservation, be nice about it, but also be understanding of the time. We went early to get a good table. Revelation #2: if you want to avoid people and a loud atmosphere, come for an early dinner. They bump up the volume of the music and bass around 645-7pm which means everybody is talking very loud to be able to hear above the music. Our server came quickly, we never got his name or I would give him a shout out. Him and his shadow were great, but our server in particular had some great meal suggestions we never would have picked ourselves. Revelation #3: If you're a foodie, ask your server for recos. Ask what's new, what's freshest, what's special. Especially if it's summer because they will be getting the best of the best produce every week. The meal: - Thai crudo: 8/10 - liked it was slightly different than what you would expect at a sushi restaurant - *Cucumber salad: 10/10! Bright, fresh, summery, special. Lemon, Italian, Persian and mouse melon (mini) cucumbers with herbs and citrus. Beautiful plating, fantastic salad and reco. - Myrna potato pizza: 5/10. Wanted to love it but was really bland following the cucumber salad. - Sweet corn agnolotti: 9/10. Really tasty just wish there were more! Think there was heirloom corn as a garnish. - Spaghetti: 7/10. Spicy. Too spicy for me but we are generally no-spice people so if you like spicy this is for you. It's not overwhelmingly spicy. Flavor was good but not mind blowing. - Pana cotta with seasonal fruits: 8/10. Nice and light. Ours was mango/lime. Opted out of heavier deserts because we were so full by now. Meal size talk: totally wish we would have gotten less food. A perfect amount for 2 adults would be something like: 1 salad/veggie, 1 meat main and 1 pizza OR pasta + 1 desert. You also don't spend SO much $$$ on food that way, which if you get some things that are a little off you're not so upset about the bill. It's a foodie place with a creative chef... Anyways, great meal and great service. We'll be back to try out brunch on the patio with the remains of our gift card!
