    Cosmopolitan e Rosati Sandwich
    Jessica N.

    Warmer weather puts me in the mood for sandwiches. My friend was in the area and took my order and brought it over. I ordered a Cosmopolitan e Rosati sandwich which includes prosciutto di parma, fresh mozz, tomato, basil, arugula, and pesto vinaigrette. I was impressed with the size of the sandwich! It was also generously packed, you definitely got and tasted every ingredient in every bite. I loved the pesto and the mozzarella. It didn't feel heavy and tasted fresh and herby. It was so filling, I ate half and saved the half for later. Prices were great and I would get it again. I hear the rest of their sandwiches are also really great so maybe I'll just have to go down the menu one sandwich at a time. We also ordered iced lattes. They were ok.

    Latte and Lemon Meringue Tart
    Sarah K.

    I am glad we stopped by twice during our visit in LA, and I would come again next time! The lattes are basic and solid which was so good to have after an overly-sugary "coffee" from another shop. The pastries are great as well. I had croissant one day and the lemon meringue another day, and I'd definitely eat them again. My boyfriend had their sandwiches both days and he liked both of them. We actually came back the second time because he really wanted to try their special pastrami sandwich, which he said was totally worth it. The service is good, and both inside and outside decor reminds you of a cozy bistro somewhere in Europe. There isn't a lot of seating but I can also see this place being more of a grab and go shop so maybe that's intentional.

    Pastrami di Fumo. Hit the spot!
    Andrew D.

    A little pricey? Everything on the menu is $15 plus dollars, but with places like Jersey Mike's charging almost $10 for added guacamole and cheese for a total of $20 for a half-sub, I'd rather get a sandwich here along with a chic ambiance (I absolutely love the hundreds of wine bottles on the walls--makes it feel like a romantic, candle-lit dinner inside a wine cellar). What I ordered: The Pastrami Di Fumo: Thick slices of Pastrami, crispy pickled onions, creamy cole slaw, and mustard on Rye. Simple and hit the spot. What my friends ordered: My friend loves brisket, so he had to go with the Brisket di Annerita (I almost considered ordering this myself but opted for the former). Generous slices of smoked brisket, BBQ sauce, creamy Cole slaw, and crispy pickled onions. Honestly, it didn't hit home with me off the two bites I had. I expected the brisket to be more flavorful and juicy, instead I got a subpar tasting-experience. Maybe my bar for smoked brisket is just too high. The French Connection: I work at a French Cafe, so there was no way I was going to order this despite being told by the cashier it was one of the most popular options next to the Cosmopolitan e Rosati...nonetheless, the few bites I tried from my friend's order were really tasty! Prosciutto Cotto Ham, Brie Cheese, Comichons, tomato, lettuce, and mustard. I appreciate how fresh the baguette was, too. The counter staff is really friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! A 10/10 experience all-around. I'll be back to try a cheesecake (chocolate mouse cheesecake, I'm eyeing you).

    Amazing place to grab a quick bite to eat. Great for lunch. Great if you're in a rush. Great if you want a great bite. MOJITO SANDWICH is vegetarian and very tasty. The bread is amazing. Each vegetable ingredient was prepped for maximum compatibility with the other veggie ingredients. Tastes fresh. Very filling. Large enough for two people with average appetites. LATTE is appropriately strong and tasty. Croissant is flaky enough. Iced hot chocolate was super rich and creamy. No line to order. Very short wait before our order was ready. A few indoor and outdoor seating available. Somewhat of a market too. You can buy a few grovery items in here -- artisanal, not generic stuff. Didn't get a chance to try their ice cream. Street metered parking.

    Simply WOW! What a great establishment. I'm a Hollywood native that loves everything French and Italian. No other place does both so well. Incredible coffee specialties too! Lots of grocery items that are hard to find elsewhere. VERY reasonable prices and they make EVERYTHING bakery wise fresh on premises. What a treat. Don't miss this place!

    Brisket di Annerita

    Absolutely amazing brisket sandwich!! The desserts are so beautifully crafted and taste even better!

    I had to show the inner layers Brisket di Annerita

    Their food was high quality, the staff was nice, an overall nice place to go for a meal ( or break as it has lattes, desserts, and gelato in addition to their sandwiches) with friends. I also liked how it had a store with Italian food and drink items to purchase for your home ( or for a gift).

    I've only tried their charcuterie board and it was really good. I love the white cheddar and fresh mozzarella cheeses and the salami were all good and of good quality. The plate setting was perfect and the components such as the dried apricot, jam and walnuts were such good pairing (sweet, savory, salty). The baguette slices were really good as well! Con: there was liquid i am assuming from the olives that caused the cheese to get soggy, no good. But overall it was really good and will definitely come back for more of that.

    What a cute little marketplace!! I was nearby at a museum and stumbled across this place searching F&B nearby. I I devoured my delicious grappa sandwich in less than 10 minutes!! My partner, also did the same with his Paloma sandwich. I asked for a bite of his and it was also delicious. Seriously, I could taste every single ingredient listed on the description of the menu. Have you ever had arugula soaked in olive oil before, so from then you asked to skip it from whatever you were eating altogether? Well, fear no more! I am here to report that I was able to still taste the freshness of the arugula with a hint of oiliness only. I was going to order more bakery items, but I was so full that I couldn't Until next time when I return to this area!

    Gimlet Bianca Sandwich, unbalanced flavors with one really hard baguette (not my fave)
    Scott J.

    Recently tried Haute Mess, not in love. I got the Gimlet Bianca Sandwich and felt it was totally unbalanced and not my favorite Sando. The sourdough baguette didn't taste fresh and was way too hard making it challenging to eat. (Pro tip, squish the bread a few times to make it manageable to eat) This was to be Turkey w bacon, and a few veggies but all you can taste in the overpowering flavor of the bacon, can't even taste the turkey or the avocado aioli. I ended up adding deli mustard to add depth to the flavor of the sandwich. All in all based off first impressions I wouldn't recommend this sandwich spot.

    My first visit and was thrilled with the food, ambiance, and service. Staff was so kind and even let me order a salad that was only available in the restaurant and brought it to me. Caesar salad was on of the best I've ever had! Sandwich was delicious - maybe just too much bread for me. 10/10 will be back and looking for more options

    Gimlet Bianco sandwich
    G. M.

    OHHH WOWWWW!! This place was such an amazing find! I love the name, LOL! Although contradictory to the food, it is in no way a " Mess" ! Lol! This bread was so fresh,& the sandwich meat quality is superb! Perfect amounts of everything and the menu choices all fantastic! Being from NY and loving deli sandwiches my entire life, to this place- we will be returning. We ordered it on Uber Eats,& next time will most likely try to go in to experience the little shop and all of its cute offerings we saw in some photos. We ordered the Gimlet sandwich which was about a foot or more long & the Old Fashioned which was on crusty square rustic looking fresh bread. They make creative coffees as well as desserts. I had opted for a little something sweet with the Tiramisu. It was really good although for this being my favorite Italian dessert I am super critical, so I have had better. I never mind spending a bit more money for great quality food items,& although this is on the pricier side, it was well worth the spend. I gave it 4 stars because they forgot the provolone on my sandwich which is a favorite of mine when getting deli items. The coffee was good but I would opt to go a bit sweeter with my choice next time. I strongly recommend trying this place out, especially for the freshest bread that I think I have ever had in any LA sandwich shop!

    It's my third time indulging in their mascarpone cheesecake. It's the most scrumptious cheesecake ever. Aside from that, I've also tried the Gibson di Carne, a marinara meatball sandwich with melted mozarella. Today, I ordered the Mess Burger. I'm a huge marinara meatball sandwich and giant burger fanatic. Now the ingredients here are high quality and I can taste the difference. The burger was cooked medium rare just the way I ordered it. I would say they rely on the raw flavors of the ingredients more than other places that would mask it with sauce. Is it pricey here? I would say no, considering the inflation of menu prices elsewhere, I think the prices here are fair. And I'm referring to their sandwiches, cafe, and bakery. I have no insight into their cheese and wine selection. My only desire is for them to get a bigger place with seating and Wifi. I really enjoyed their affogato as well. I would totally come to work here. It's different environment with their quality cheese and wine selection, which I may never touch.

This larger space now serves as a cheese shop, upscale market and fast-casual eatery. I came here for lunch after walking through GCM and not feeling inspired. They still offer a large case of cheeses from around the world, which can be purchased by weight. I think a large part of their business is creating made-to-order charcuterie platters and boards of cheeses and meats. In their deli case, they have grab and go plates of 3 cheeses (meat optional), pickles and dried fruit. The gourmet market also offers fresh produce, specialty items like premium butters, Rancho Gordo beans, house made items like chicken stock, pickles, etc, and meats. Plus fresh juices and lemonade and canned/bottled drinks. I came for the eatery. They offer cold sandwiches and breads, plus made to order hot sandwiches. They have an attractive Sunday Brunch menu also. I went with the ham melt, which is their OG grilled cheese with ham added. I also ordered their "Always Creamy Tomato Soup", both to go. The soup was delish. It came with garlicky croutons which alas were soggy by the time I ate them. The sandwich was excellent. It had 3 different cheeses, ham, and caramelized onions on brioche. It was grilled to perfection with a substantial cheese skirt, and came with pickles and whole grain mustard. A very tasty lunch and a nice alternative to GCM. They had a fair amount of seating if you decide to eat in. I'd definitely shop their market more extensively next time, and would like to try their brunch someday. They also have a wine/champagne/tinned fish bar next door called Kippered, that was packed when I walked by in the evening.

I remembered why I don't stop by as often as I'd like, the parking lot is awkward, despite the kind and attentive parking lot attendant. Squeezed into a compact spot that had an over sized truck next to me that made for maneuvering in and out of my compact vehicle a bit ridiculous.

Now I'm in no way complaining, but this sandwich is exactly what it says it is, fresh ciabatta bread, fresh burrata cheese (yum), prosciutto, caramelized onions (perfection) and truffle cream sauce. Everything delicious but the truffle cream is pretty potent, be aware. Maybe they went a bit heavy on the Truffle Cream sauce but it was just too rich & potent for me today. (I ended up just scraping the burrata cheese off and eating that alone instead of the second half of the sandwich, and yes I'm a truffle fan). Will I be back, absolutely! Would I order this particular sandwich again, no. The Burrata House is pretty small, so just a small wall counter and bar stools inside to eat and a few tables outside to enjoy your meal.

I do some quick math and assume the price is because of the cheese I added to the bill. I add a tip on the lowish side, because we didn't really get any "service" to be worth the $18 I added onto it. I get home to review the receipt... and was charged $20 for the personal boards + the add ons... I am so let down. I spent $130 and didn't get awesome service or the happy hour discount.
