The chop salad was excellent... Probably the best I've had. The meat and cheese are so fresh. I came back twice in a week. And both times I received excellent customer service. Thanks to the chefs and the cashiers. read more

Valentine makes the best sandwiches. The coffee is temperature controlled - I love a decaf cappuccino. Luis is great. Some of the ladies have an attitude, could be more pleasant. Pastries are beautiful when they prepare them fresh. Wish they would bring back il dolce sale. I love caramel. Dog friendly is a plus. 4 star instead of 5 since they stopped making fresh pastries everyday. read more

Haute Mess literally does it all! Breakfast, lunch, dinner, coffee, gelato - they can do anything. They open at 7am which is amazing for me to pop in while I'm doing a morning walk for their coffee. They have a ton of exciting options when it comes to caffeination! Like with everything here, the options are endless for coffee. I've actually eaten here many times and must say that the sandwiches are delicious but are truly a haute mess! Meaning they have so many ingredients are so packed with deliciousness that I always need a bunch of napkins as an egg oozes out or arugula falls all over. That being said, some highlights of things I've had are their meatball sub that was 1000% better than anything you'd get from Subway. I've also tried the pastrami sandwich and loved it. I absolutely love the Grappa di Mattina with Fresh-Cracked Eggs, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Fresh Tomato, Avocado, Arugula and Aioli on Sourdough Toast! The only thing that was disappointing was the bread got very soggy and the sandwich kind of fell apart when eating it. So eat all their sandwiches asap after ordering, preferably when still in the shop. Their chocolate chip cookies are a great deal at 4 for $6.50 and are solid 4 star cookies. They also have a mini market inside with a ton of wine and other liquor options, a gelato stand with a lot of options or you can grab prepacked pints, so many gorgeous desserts done beautifully. There's just so many options when you come here! Haute Mess has such a huge menu that I can keep trying new things each time I'm in. And thus far, nothing has disappointed me! I'll definitely be back to keep working my way through their eats. read more

Love the pastries and the coffee. The homemade almond milk is to die for! Of course, when you head to the refrigerated area- the homemade stuff like meatballs and soup and other freshly made items are delicious and homey. And don't get me started on the homemade potato chips!! I'm there a few days a week. Love love love. staff could be a little friendlier though. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Haute Mess - Latte and Lemon Meringue Tart - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Learned about this spot whilst dining at Della Terra a couple weeks ago. We ordered coffee at the restaurant and it was brought over from next door. Today we decided to go there directly after dinner instead of ordering in the restaurant. They have tons of options for baked goods and pastries (also serving sandwiches). We tried the mascarpone cheesecake with lattes. Yummy yummy! Definitely recommend and will return. They have a large selection of wines that they sell too, as well as a gelato/ice cream section in the back of the cafe. Luis helped us both times and he's great. We purchased a champagne he suggested - can't wait to try it! read more

Haute Mess - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This bakery/shop is right next to Della Terra. Parking is definitely a challenge here and if you are lucky enough to score a spot on the street, grab it right away. There seemed to be some parking spots across the street though. Came in and ordered a latte with pumpkin spice with oat milk. For a medium sized coffee, it was pretty expensive. I was charged $1.25 extra for the oat milk. Granted, they do make their own oat milk. I found the pumpkin spice syrup they put in made the drink a little sour. It definitely is not Starbucks PSL. Plus, there were little chunks of something at the bottom of the cup, which I did not drink. They have a gelato shop on the other side and thought the pistachio gelato was pretty good, but wished it had a stronger pistachio flavor. If I was ever in the area again, I would definitely give this place another shot as I think the pumpkin spice syrup might have been at the end of its life. Also, their pre-packed pint of gelato is available in a freezer that you can just grab and go. My pistachio was $12. read more

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). read more

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. read more

I recently visited Haute Mess, and I have to say, I was really impressed. I had their brisket de annerita, and it was incredibly juicy with a huge portion. The flavors were rich, and even though it's a bit on the pricier side, it's absolutely worth it. Great food, and a really satisfying experience overall! read more

Place was chosen by my daughters. I had never heard of it but when I looked it up they talked about brisket which is my language. It did not disappoint. It was tender and flavorful. Every sandwich was tasty and you could tell the quality of each ingredient. I saw they had an Antipasto salad in the take-out fridge so got one of those to go as well for later. It was great as well. read more

Love this place! Fantastic cakes, pastries, sandwiches, wine, ice cream, cheese and much more. I've been here a few times and always leave ecstatic. Their wine selection is amazing. The cakes and pastries are delicious and spot on. I always want to get their cheese and charcuterie meats, but I live a bit too far. read more

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. read more

Haute Mess - Gimlet Bianca Sandwich, unbalanced flavors with one really hard baguette (not my fave) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

We were in the area and were looking for a quick bite when we came across Haute Mess. I love a great sandwich, but finding one isn't always easy. The interior of the establishment is modern. Upon entering, you order on the left, and on the right side, they have a few tables set up for dining in. We asked for recommendations and ended up ordering the Cosmopolitan and the French Connection--both sandwiches were delicious. You can choose the bread, so for the Cosmopolitan, we selected the soft baguette. Not only did the bread taste great, but the sandwich ingredients were also fresh. I especially liked the taste of the fresh mozzarella paired with the pesto. The French Connection was my husband's favorite. We ordered it on a regular baguette, which is crunchier, and the bread was just as fresh. The highlight of this sandwich was the dijon mustard and the cornichons in each bite. Tip: if you're not too hungry, I'd recommend sharing a sandwich because they're on the larger size and pretty filling. We're picky about our sandwiches, but Haute Mess was definitely a pleasant surprise. We'll be back for sure when in the area. read more

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! read more

This place is fantastic! Cant believe I stumbled here one Sunday evening looking for a great sandwich spot Haute Mess is an amazing sandwich coffee wine meat pastry spot that also has its own Gelato/Gelateria tucked away in the back It is really pleasantly designed interior & the food are all top notch, many if not all of them mostly imported from Italy. I heard they are the same owners as the Italian restaurant next door that is really popular as well I have only tried Gelato a few times here & was very happy. But, the sandwiches is where they got me. Ive tried almost all of them. So far 1 of their seasonal specials the Brisket Sandwich blew me away & is my favorite along with the Cosmopolitan with Prosciutto. The quality, flavor, freshness & portions were all perfect. The sandwiches are all fresh made after ordering. I just recently found out they could also make fresh lemonade sodas or regular Italian sodas thats not on the menus. Amazing! Their meats are all prime & they sell a lot of pastry even a good selection of wines & panettone imported. The breads are all made fresh & not the hard crusty ones from other spots. Prices have gone up over the years but so has everywhere else, used to get all their sandwiches from anywhere from $11-$12 now they're around $15-$20 The seating is not as robust, there is a couple of 2 seaters & thats about it. If it gets busy might not have places to sit & eat. Parking is not easy as it is directly across the street from Erewhon Overall great atmosphere, food & energy. I love this place & will be a customer here always! read more

Wow, what a find! We ordered the Cosmopolitan e Rosati and it was delicious!

This is our go to place in Mid-City for sandwiches, the sandwich quality is usually on point. Their service is also excellent. They have an impressive selection of european-based, wine, food, and gelato. However, they've raised their prices substantially in the last 6 months. I get a price increase due to inflation and the progressiveness that is California law. However $2 per sandwich is pretty ballsy. Of course, California businesses are not raising salaries to match this sky high inflation and minimum wage law price bumps.. read more

I ordered for delivery and wanted something satisfying and filling. I got the gimlet bianca (turkey/bacon/avocado sauce) and it's to die for. I got it on the sourdough baguette so the bread was nice and crispy with the sauce to soften the inside. I also got their fresh OJ and potato chips and it's the perfect lunch. I saw the other reviews say the service is excellent in store and it definitely translates with my delivery order. Personalized stickers, sandwich made with care, all items packaged with care.

You wouldn't think that a French coffee shop/market would make a decent hamburger, but they do. In a quest to find the best burgers in LA, a friend and I went to Haute Mess.

Not a single complaint except...maybe the sandwiches should come with silverware without asking because ours was huge. I mean two-hands, two-people massive. We went with the only veggie option on the menu (tons of veggies, lotsa cheese, thick crusty bread) and it was delicious. At first I'd thought the prices were a bit high but then I saw the thing! Entirely worth it. Also cute space, plenty of outdoor seating, and they make the muffins so they're mostly top. We will be back. read more
