    Half full! Iced vanilla latte.
    Emily B.

    Spacious place perfect for a family meal. Extensive breakfast menu with fresh pastries, scrambles and skillets. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it was the perfect mixture of espresso, syrup and milk-- balanced & tasty. My FAV was their parfaits!! Holy smokes!! Both the chocolate mousse and cookies & cream were light, airy, fluffy and delicious! A must try!!

    Great cafe and bakery. They have many items and a very cool atmosphere. We got our coffee and cheese croissant quickly and the cashier was very nice and friendly. Wanted to try more stuff from the menu but we just wanted coffee and a snack. We will definitely come back and try more. Plenty of seating as well.

    Spinach bagel with Cucumber Onion Dill Cream Cheese

    We often visit Grounds when we are visiting my sister and her family. There is a large selection of breakfast sandwiches and bagels and pastries. We are always warmly greeted when we come in. It is almost alway busy when we go in so obviously it's a great place to be! There are pictures of former patrons all over and it is a homey environment with a sense of familiarity. My nieces always get the cinnamon sugar bagel with strawberry cream cheese. This time I got the spinach bagel with cucumber dill cream cheese. It was delicious! My son got the chicken club sandwich in sourdough and reported it was tasty, too. We look forward to coming back again!

    Can't remember the last time I came here. That's how long ago it is. Gladly, I'm back to see my original primary care doc at Optum across the street, and stopped by with nostalgia. Grounds Bakery Cafe has not changed! They now have outside seating as well! Probably because of Covid and that's a good thing, right? I picked up my favorite Blueberry Muffin and a cup of coffee. I love their DIY coffee stand! Choices + Choices! I got myself a Hazelnut Blend... yummy! The rambling ambience is not that loud and patrons are having warm conversations throughout the cafe. It's definitely got a neighborly feel and a relaxing ambience. I missed this! Must be back soon for the breakfast sandwich!

    This is a great local spot. I've been here many times and I always enjoy everything. The bagels are great! They are lite and crispy. I recommend getting one double toasted with cream cheese. Sesame ... the king of bagels. The breakfast options are great. The baked goods are top notch. Today I'm getting a breakfast sandwich and pastry. Good place to sit and drink coffee and have a meal with friends.

    Banana Pudding - so filling but I could have eaten another!!! So good!

    First time at Grounds. Met a friend for coffee. Lovely place, lots of folks at tables inside and outside. Had a chai tea latte which was wonderful, but the star was the Banana Pudding. Service was great including bringing our order to our table. That was a nice touch. Will definitely return!

    Tuna Avocado Sandwich Wednesday Soup

    Had the best tuna sandwich on dark brown bread with broccoli cheese soup! Had it delivered via GrubHub. Definitely will purchase again! Everything was fresh and flavorful.

    First time trying Grounds Cafe and it did not disappoint. My fiancé and his gym buddies tried this place earlier in the week and he brought me a grilled chicken club sandwich and some desserts from this restaurant and it did not disappoint. The grilled chicken club was made to perfection, good ratio of meat, bacon, cheese, and not too much lettuce. The banana cream pudding was delicious and fairly priced. The tiramisu was delectable and light, you can really taste the flavor of the soaked coffee in the lady fingers. During this visit we shared a chocolate chip bagel with strawberry cream cheese spread, a chocolate chip muffin, and a blended cookie coffee freeze. The bagel was perfect, it was light and airy and not dense like other bagels, and complemented well with the strawberry cream cheese. The muffin was also delicious and not heavy. We were so full we did not finish everything we ordered and took the remaining chocolate croissant, tiramisu, banana pudding, and yogurt parfait home. Service was great, April our server made sure that our order was correct and she packaged the pastries that we wanted to enjoy at home. We also spoke to a regular customer, Maureen and she highly recommended this cafe.

We wanted to try the simpler stuff on the menu. We got the just egg and sausage in a plain bagel and just egg and cheese and sausage on a Jalapeño bagel. I can't remember the last time we paid around $20 for a breakfast meal for two. They were both tasty but needed salt hot sauce and ketchup to be added. The best part is they have all this out for you to grab. Once we added it, it was so good. The portion size for the price is incredible. No way did I think I would pay 6.99 for a big bagel, a large piece of egg and 2 pieces of sausage. It was such a great price. Now I am so excited to come and try others. But the prices do jump nearly double, but I think it will be worth it. Check out the menu pics I added to see the prices. It's hard to hear inside. We sat inside to eat since it was very clean and well maintained. They brought us our bagels but I think that was because we forgot to get up from being called. Again it was hard to hear but when the food came out it was all worth it! The jalapeño bagel did not shine as much. It tasted like a plain bagel with no spice even from the bits of jalapeños. This made me wonder if their sweet bagels are different. They recommend the Asiago bagel so maybe I'll try that for the next savory option. Honestly I don't know when they make the bagels but we came around 11am, try coming earlier and maybe the bagels will be fresher. By noon the line picked up, but it never got as busy as other stores around. I'm excited to come back and try the omelet sandwiches and other bagels!

So I have been so excited to try Olive and Rose! They have fun pool parties and different events throughout the week. And tonight they had a pottery decorating sgraffito class in the courtyard by the pool which was tons of fun! I saw they had braised octopus on the menu and had to try it. My single favorite bite of food was a scallop I had from Heritage so I know Chef Petty knows how to prepare seafood. The octopus was delicious. It was similar to Spanish octopus but topped with a bright salad green oil/sauce that gave it a different kick. This is probably my second favorite octopus in all of LA. I wish there was a bit more of the octopus itself, but it was still delicious. The beans and potatoes on the dish were great complements. The service is attentive and quick. You can eat inside or out on the patio, I opted for the latter since the clay pottery was outside. Either way is lovely. I definitely want to come back for more events! The only downside is parking is TOUGH. Be prepared to circle for a bit.

While I appreciate that the misunderstanding may have been caused by Yelp, the customer service (when in the restaurant) could have been more respectful and not dismissive/judging. The yelp page says they have gluten free options but that isn't the case. They had no gluten free options and the employee working acted as though the question of gluten free options was ridiculous. We pointed out that the yelp page says they have gluten free and asked if that's charged, but they rudely responded and said they don't pay attention to yelp. Maybe they should pay attention.

I ordered the Desi ($11.75) simply because I was curious about the hollowed out bagel situation. I suppose this is the healthier of their options because it comes with egg whites. It also comes decked out with bacon, avocado, jalapeño, cream cheese + lemon pepper. I chose a Parmesan bagel as my vessel and it was a very tasty breakfast bagel. There were hints of lemon pepper which was an interesting flavor addition. For a more traditional breakfast bagel, Joe's Special ($10.50) was quite special. It's a bacon, egg, cheese, jalapeño cream cheese + lemon pepper breakfast bagel. This was a very solid breakfast bagel without the usual accompanying grease. Again with the lemon pepper lol. They also offer an extensive drink selection which I appreciate. I'll definitely be back to try their lunch bagels or to simply pick up bagels for home.

    My entire food journey started in a Columbia, Maryland food court at The Mall and a grilled Reuben…read moreat the age of 13. Since then the grilled Reuben has been my measuring stick for every restaurant that serves it. It's a must! It shows the attention to detail. It's not a sandwich you can rush. It requires its own time to caramelize and set the flavors up properly. Just like a house made soup, a Grilled Reuben can tell you a lot. And, it just happens to be my favorite sandwich of all time! So. High marks on the store itself. It has a very open air feel, lots of natural lighting, high ceilings and then a hidden court yard behind the shop. It's very clean with lots of colors and art. The music is perfect for the space. The menu is varied and they have both alcoholic drinks and non alcoholic drinks. It's a deli. And they absolutely fill the roll perfectly. And as anyone will tell you, who frequents any deli in the country. What matters is the food. Period. All the niceties mean nothing if the food distant stand up. So... how did they do? Meh. I've had worse. Much worse. I've also had much better. And understand his is my personal opinion. I'm well aware that my comments will not reflect the opinion of everyone. But, the corned beef. They do not cook it in house. It didn't appear to be a brisket although with it being shaved as thinly as it is I don't know if that would help. Brisket corned beer works best when it's nice thick beautiful cuts that break apart and melt in your mouth. But. As you can see in the picture, they don't grill the corned beef but they do pile it pretty darn high. Which is nice. The sauerkraut wasn't grilled. The rye wasn't roasted long enough so the Swiss didn't properly melt and set. Not enough Thousand Island dressing. The rye has the perfect texture and it helps to very nicely. An excellent Jewish rye! The pesto pasta salad was very nice. And it looked as if the other sides were made with an equal amount of attention and love. So high marks there. This is one of those tough reviews because the reality is the atmosphere, the staff and the location are all excellent. The sandwich needs some work. Remember that the Grilled Reuben is the ONLY TRUE American Sandwich. It was created from scratch for the 1942 World's Fair in New York City. It's an original! Treat it with the respect it deserves. And this three star sandwich... of all sandwiches is a hard pass. Sorry. But, if you would ever like to have me come into your restaurant and show you how to serve the best Reuben of your life... just invite me back. I'd love to show you how to make some simple tweaks and turn a meh into a don't miss!
