Specialty cakes

This is one of Historic DTLA's hidden gems. You can still get coffee and a pastry for under five dollars, to go or eat in. My father used to visit quite often and would get delicious all occasion, cakes for our family, especially his grand children. I sure hope they are around for a long time!

3 leches cake... Delicious. 
 Cash only.

I need it a cake and yelped looking for a bakery in DTLA. This bakery came up and their pictures look good. I stopped by yesterday and picked up a 3 leches cake and it was delectable! Everyone at the office loved it, asked where I bought it and will be ordering cakes from them soon. CASH ONLY...

Great Rosca de Reyes, pero no salio ningún niño:( I called and the lady said that they had put some in. We destroyed the rosca and nothing came out. I won't get one from here next year

It's a girl! Baby shower cake, princess theme.

La gourmet bakery is our bakery of preference! Since our wedding 12 years ago, they have always excelled our expectations. Their cakes are not only beautiful for the pictures. But they are also delicious in favor. Our favorito is they're mocha and tres leches. They are absolutely to die for! Our only choice!

Full sheet with 1 layer of chocolate, 1 layer tres leches, and a delicious chocolate and strawberry center.
Anel F.

I am forever a returning customer. Lupe makes the best cakes. Our go to cake has and will always be the tres leches and chocolate cake with chocolate and strawberry filling. There is a special chocolate crunch in the middle that we all love. Cakes are beautiful decorated with fresh flowers and a special treat (we love the macaroons). As always THANK YOU Lupe and Rafael for making it possible for us to enjoy these cakes ~ Anel

Pan de muerto
Libby R.

I needed to grab 3 dozen pan dulces for my classroom so I stopped by this local spot. When I saw the great variety of pan de muerto, I had to get those instead. The owner is a lovely lady, dressed in a chef coat and pearls. When she found out the bread was for my students, she gave me one dozen for free! She even packed everything into a huge recyclable bag for me. I got to work, gave them out and had one for myself. The best Pan de Muerto I have ever had ever. I now have a local panderia I will be buying all my Mexican pastry from - and I work in East LA so that's saying a lot.

Ham Torta cut in half.
Gabriel M.

Did a quick stop to get a coffee and sweat bread, but instead ended up getting a ham Torta. The Torta was great, an perfect combination of toppings made a bomb ass Torta. If your ever looking for a mom made home style Torta, this is the place to go. I've tried the sweat bread in the past. That's one of the reasons I came back. They have good freindly service and are quick to get your orders done.

Such a beautiful cake. Would highly recommend this bakery. They made it super delicious too !

Best tres leches cake hands down - not too wet and with a layer of Nutella. The tortas are delicious and you can't beat the $5 price.

All'Antico Vinaio - The Venice beach (turkey)

All'Antico Vinaio

4.0(287 reviews)
3.5 miKoreatown, Wilshire Center
$$

I think out of all the places I've traveled to so far, my favorite would have to be Italy. During a…read morelazy afternoon after visiting the Pantheon in Rome, we had our first experience with All'Antico after taking a 5 minute walk down the road. They actually had 2 separate locations flanking the pedestrian road, so there were two long lines snaking out in opposite directions. While we were waiting in line, we bumped into a couple from Spain who were also visiting. They gave my wife some personal recommendations, advising we get the blood orange soda with our sandwiches. After getting said sandwiches (the La Paradiso), we nibbled on them while walking to Sant'Ignazio of Loyola Church, which is that cathedral where there's a mirror directed up towards the murals on the ceiling and a huge selfie line. Hot damn were those sandwiches good. The thinly sliced mortadella paired perfectly with that buttery, green pistachio spread. The only challenge for my taste buds was the mild oral trauma I sustained from punching through the crispy bread; your gums started to feel it by the time you devoured your sandwich. But we liked it so much that when we later took the train to Florence, we sought All'Antico again at their original location. I thought that would be my last experience with All'Antico (unless, of course, I came back to Italy). So imagine my surprise when later that year I heard All'Antico had coincidentally opened a branch in Los Angeles, although rather awkwardly situated in Koreantown. Even though we live 30 minutes away, we made the drive immediately. There was no way this remote All'Antico location, thousands of miles from Italy, would live up to the experience I had in Rome earlier that year. But I was mistaken. Not only is the taste spot on, but the bread they serve is actually chewier and removed the gum calisthenics I suffered in Italy. And yes, they also have the blood orange soda as well. It's a little weird their location is in Koreatown, but not a big deal; we'll usually do a bingsu run afterward. Just like their locations in Italy, All'Antico is small but they do have a small collection of bar seats, some of which overlook the staff as they're making your sandwich. Be mentally prepared though to take it to go depending on how busy it is. Parking sucks too; there's street parking only, but if you come on Sunday you don't have to pay. Every so often now, we'll make the 30 minute drive just to relive that slice of Italy we experienced nearly 2 years ago. Thankfully, not a lot of people recognize how good this place is yet, as the lines aren't crazy long like they are in Italy. For all the other Yelpers in on it too, let's keep it our little secret for now.

Pretty good spot I'd recommend to friends. Came on a Saturday 12:30pm, there was just 1-2 parties…read moreahead of me in line. I was surprised there weren't more people! Lunch rush came around 1:30pm. The workers were kind and helpful, each working diligently to complete everyone's order timely. I ordered the Mamma Mia, Dante, New Yorker--with Dante coming out as my fav. Shoutout to their truffle sauce, light yet not overbearing! Loved to see how they only use focaccia that just come out of the oven, and they cut your sandwich's meat from the meat hunk on an order basis. Very fresh, never greasy. I thought the Dante and Mamma Mia could improve by adding just one more ingredient as a cherry on top, like a sort of nut (walnuts, pine nuts) or something that helps the sandwich spark. Would love to see a bit more arugula too. No public bathroom--closest one is probably Hmart across the street (needs a code). Parking is metered, but there's free neighborhood parking 1-2 blocks away if you're able to find a spot. There's a few seats (5-6) and a standing bar around the perimeter of the store. Also, the drinks are money but you can ask for a water cup for free.

I'm back for round 2 and this place doesn't disappoint. My buddy and I had the "kicken chicken" and…read moreit was great. The breads have a good sweet taste along with just the right amount of crunch. My buddy said, "I don't like sandwiches much but this one was good." Side note, he's a foodie. I don't enjoy spicy foods but this sandwich has the right amount of spicy. Overall, you cant go wrong with this place.

tl;dr the Dutch crunch rolls highlight an otherwise standard lineup of hearty deli sandwiches…read more The Los Angeles sandwich scene ranges from terrific tortas to farmer's market-on-a-bun, but few spots have embraced the Bay Area's beloved Dutch crunch roll. These slightly sweet hoagie rolls are coated with rice flour, creating an addictively crunchy, tortoise-shell top. While hard to find, Dutch crunch rolls are the specialty at Ghost Sando Shop. This small sandwich chain (from the mind of NorCal native and former Chipotle exec Benjamin Sales) debuted in the Fairfax District, and it has expanded to Orange County and the Valley. Every sandwich at Ghost Sando sports a Dutch crunch roll, and the lineup has achieved TikTok fame. Briefly, Grand Central Market is a semi-outdoor industrial market turned upscale food court. The sky-high walls are painted white, and the concrete floors are slickly polished. Even during the day, only a few rays of sunshine enter through the skylight roof, leaving each vendor's neon sign to pop. During busy hours, expect foot traffic shoulder-to-shoulder through the narrow aisleways. Here, Ghost Sando has a central stall near the wide stairwell. You can't miss the bright teal paint or custom green neon sign. The walls are tastefully decked with hexagon tile and wooden slats. The sandwich production line is front and center, and staff members buzz around even well after the weekday lunch rush. Stools are pressed up against the long stainless steel bar counter, guaranteeing a seat for customers. My partner and I visited Ghost Sando for a weekday lunch, but our food was prepared relatively quickly. Immediately, I was shocked by the sheer density of the sandwiches. Rolled into compact cylinders, the weight could have fooled me into thinking they were bricks. The "Large" size was plenty for even a hefty appetite, but I can't imagine how anyone could tackle the double-topping "XX Large" portions. I also enjoyed the unique Dutch crunch loaf -- consider holding your sandwich upside-down to fully appreciate the crispy shell. Otherwise, the sandwiches were more standard than spectacular. The cold cuts are more like grocery store variety than premium deli, and the veggies are only a step above Subway. I preferred the mildly spicy Firebird to the warm-ish Pastrami Mami, but neither blew my socks off. The service is mostly disengaged, and the sandwiches run from $15 each. Reasonably, a sandwich can be extended across 2 meals. The sandos are mostly standard, but the Dutch crunch rolls are mildly addictive. While Ghost Sando is not a reason alone to pay GCM a visit, it is a filling and reliable bet for routine DTLA lunch.

It was getting late, so while I waited for the kid in the car at their activity, I went on The Heights website found an order form and placed an order for some sammies all in 5 minutes. I didn't even ask the hubs or the vegetarian kid what they wanted. I went with what I thought they'd like. 15-minutes later, I was picking the sandwiches up at the walk-in only shop. There was no line and better yet, they were wrapped up and ready to go when I walked in. The smiling lady asked if I wanted napkins or utensils. They have case after case of cold drinks so we picked out a couple of drinks, paid for those and left. It was easy and fast. Enjoyed the yumminess at home. I normally would save a half for another meal but my "Pasadena" hit the spot that I finished it up all at once. Quality bread, meats, cheese, fillings aka all the ingredients...to boot!
