    Ashtotaz, Satalana, Kusharita
    Christine D.

    i've never had middle eastern dessert before so it was so great to try labanz for the first time! they had a big parking lot, and i was immediately met with enthusiasm and such welcoming service by the staff. they have a few locations around socal. the menu has a lot of variety for different options to choose from like crepes, waffles, ice cream, coffees, and more! ashtotaz - fluffy cake with cream on top and kinder pieces! i love kinder chocolate. it created a good crunch with the soft cake satalana - this is a layered half biscoff & half pistachio dessert, and it was definitely my favorite one. i loved the combo of these two flavors together, and the biscoff crumbs were delicious kusharita - creamy rice pudding with mango & caramel! the fruit added a great fresh taste to the sweet dessert the atmosphere of the shop was cutesy with the blue and white theme they had. i would highly recommend if you're in the mood for a late night dessert!

    Salma helped us out and was so sweet! Everything we tried was really good and surprisingly not overly sweet. She gave us a few different ice cream options and even let us get one on the side. Great ambiance, and I love that they're open late on the weekends. Such a perfect end of the night treat! Definately will be back!!!

    Amazing service and even better desserts! As a big fan of Dubai chocolate desserts, I really enjoyed all of the base options they had and the ability to Dubai chocolate-ify all of them. Highly recommend the kusharita and labanita!! I also ordered a biscoff coffee but wasn't my fave so I'd skip on that next time. Ambiance was great as they even had the World Cup games playing! Stop by if you have a big sweet tooth like me :)

    This is a great treasure trove. They have unique cake deserts (egyptian based) where you can add topi gs of your choice. One should get the satalana, its milky and kinda like tres leches

    My wife and I visited Labanz for the first time on Saturday, and we had a wonderful experience! The desserts were absolutely delicious, and we'll definitely be coming back for more. A special thank you to Daniel and Limby for providing outstanding customer service. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for amazing desserts and excellent customer service, I highly recommend this place. We can't wait to visit again!

    I stumbled across Labanz on Instagram and literally got in my car that second to go try it. I'm so glad I did! The customer service was great from the moment we walked in, and everything we ordered was delicious. We tried the Satalana, the Kusharita, and the Dubai Chocolate Waffle, and every dessert was amazing. You can tell they put a lot of care into both the presentation and the flavors. I would 100% come back and can't wait to try more of the menu. If you've been thinking about checking this place out, definitely do it! Excuse the pictures, I started eating before I could even snap a photo.

    Labanz just opened their newest location in Tarzana, adding to their Anaheim and Fullerton locations, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're a dessert lover. Their menu has a tons of options, from milk cakes and cream cakes to waffles, crepes, ice cream, specialty coffees, and drinks. I honestly couldn't figure out what to order. The owner also told me they'll be opening at 7 a.m. starting next week to serve breakfast and coffee, so I'll definitely be back to check that out. We tried the Biscoff Ashtouta (milk cake), which was soft and so moist. We also had the Dubai style Satalana (cream cake), which was rich, creamy, and topped with pistachio and crispy kunafa. For drinks, we ordered the blue ocean mojito and a Biscoff iced latte, both of which paired perfectly with the desserts. We couldn't leave without trying the Farawalita,fresh strawberries topped with Dubai chocolate and it definitely lived up to the hype. The café itself is clean, spacious, and has a great atmosphere for hanging out with friends or family. Daniel, one of the employees, was incredibly friendly and helpful. If it's your first time and you're not sure what to order, definitely ask him for recommendations!

    Been wanting to try this place ever since I saw the TikTok videos! Happy they opened a location in the valley. The desserts are absolutely superb!! Tried the Satalana with Dubai style toppings. It melted in my mouth! Just the perfect amount of sweetness and so moist! Neve had anything like this! Also had the mango mousse! Wow! Absolutely delicious! Can't wait to come back and try more. So much to choose from! We didn't even get to try the drinks! Also, the workers were so sweet and welcoming!

    My family and I have already been to Labanz twice this week, and that says it all! Their middle eastern desserts are absolutely delicious. We couldn't even wait long enough to take a picture of the Satalana or the Kusharita before digging in they were that good! My son completely devoured the Dubai style Crepeanita and is already asking when we can go back. Not only is the food incredible, but the staff is so kind and welcoming, and they're very generous with their portions. It's rare to find a place that delivers both amazing quality and such great service. We will absolutely be back often and can't wait to try even more of the menu. Highly recommend!

    The dessert options are unique and delicious. The service is super warm and friendly and the energy is positive. The person behind the counter Limby was very accommodating and made us feel welcome. The ambiance is modern and relaxed. Good vibes and a unique concept. Next time I want to try the crapes and maybe even the waffle.

    This place is so good, i keep coming back! The desserts here are amazing, the dubai crepe was one of my favorites along with the dubai kushanita. The staff is friendly & nice & they help you out with explaining each dessert. The inside is casual & perfect to eat with friends.

    Salma helped us out tonight she had great energy and recommendations! We had her very special pistachio latte, it was amazing. She even helped walk us through the menu cause we were overwhelmed with all the delicious choices, and she did not hesitate to do so! We will be returning customers for the great menu and service!

I always get the caramel latte, which I love, and today my friend ordered the mocha. For breakfast, I had the French Toast Combo with two pieces of French toast, two eggs, and three strips of bacon. It was a LOT of food! They were also able to scramble my eggs with milk, which I really appreciated because it makes them so much fluffier. I also really appreciated that my eggs and bacon were served on a separate plate from my French toast. It's a small detail, but I loved that everything wasn't all piled together. My friend ordered the Belgian Omelette with tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, and cheddar. I took a photo of the outside, but the photo definitely doesn't show just how packed this omelette was! The staff is always friendly, and I love that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. I honestly don't think I've ever sat inside because sitting outside by the fountain is such a nice way to enjoy breakfast, especially in the cooler morning hours. If you're looking for a breakfast place with generous portions, lots of variety, and consistently good food, More Than Waffles is definitely worth a visit. They serve lunch too, although breakfast is clearly the star of the menu. I haven't tried lunch yet, but considering how consistent everything else has been, I'll have to give it a try one of these days!

The Belgian waffle is a must especially with the side of butter and Housemade strawberry jam. Recommend going with friends so you can try more things.

Everything I've tried so far was delicious from the coffee to the fresh orange juice to the pancakes and omelettes. The soufflé pancakes are truly fluffy and delicious. I've tried the strawberry ones and also the mango ones in the past and both were incredibly good.. This place gets pretty full, but they always accommodated us and took our order quickly. The ambience is laid-back and welcoming I highly recommend checking out lady C's!

    Let me begin by saying that most of the food here is very, very, very well prepared and very, very,…read morevery good. What baffles me is the service. The last time I came here it was about five years ago, when it was still CiCi's. What I remember about that last time was how long it took us to get our food. I ordered steak and eggs, and when we asked when our food was coming, our waitress stared at me and said, "Well you ordered the steak . . . ". As if it was my fault that the food was taking a very long time. Regardless, when the food finally came, it was very good. However, the price point and the service was enough for me not to go back for a very long time. Until today. There are two seats on the very far left end of the bar that are lower than the regular bar seating. The hostess gave us menus promptly. There is a tall waitress working there who wears large glasses. Her hair was pulled back tightly. I'm not sure if she's is Asian or Hispanic. I'm not saying that to throw any shade at her ethnicity whatever it is I'm just saying that to try to describe who this person is. I have never in my life, been looked at so sourly and exasperatedly by a waitress as I have when this waitress saw my boyfriend and I sitting at the bar. No smile. Maybe she was upset because I had to flag her down because we had been sitting there waiting for someone to ask us if we wanted anything to drink. I asked for two coffees and two waters. She brought us the waters, and I never spoke to her again. Another waitress was kind enough to bring us our coffees after that. We waited a little while to order and yes, it was busy, but there were at least two or three people behind the bar at all times and I know they have other customers in the restaurant to serve so that doesn't bother me at all. So there was a third woman who took our order. We waited and waited and waited for our food. They did refill our coffee. After a while, I finally asked is our food coming? I was told let me go check by a fourth person. That fourth person returned and said that our food would be up soon. 10 minutes later I asked again if our food was coming. I understand certain things that take a long time like any of the pancake soufflés, but we did not order any soufflé pancakes. When I asked the second time when our food was coming, again, that person went to the kitchen to ask. When that person came back, they said oh it's not ready because you ordered the steak. The exact same thing they told me the last time we were here five years ago as to why our food was taking so long. I order my steak, medium rare every time it does not take that long to make a medium rare steak. Regardless, when I got my food, it was delicious. They forgot the side order of potatoes (because God forbid steak and eggs comes with potatoes) but I told them not to worry about it because I didn't wanna have to wait another 30 minutes to get them. My entree also came with a crêpe, and when they asked me what kind of crêpe I wanted, I asked for a Nutella crêpe. You know what they give you? A bone dry crêpe with whipped cream and a few drops of Nutella. I'm pretty sure that Nutella is supposed to go inside the crêpe not just a couple drops on top of it with a big giant dollop of whipped cream. And just because I feel like it, you know what's really low rent for a place with these prices? Tossing a to-go plastic disposable container of A1 on the plate with the steak and eggs. Seriously? You don't have a small little ceramic ramekin that you could at least put the A1in? I feel like that was put there just to fill up the plate because they don't give you any potatoes. Kind of a classless move. So like I said before, the food was very good and I'm sure it always will be. But when the waitress looks at you like you ruined her day, it reminds me why I haven't come back for years. Then when I really WANT to support that local business again, history of repeats itself. I don't like being blamed for my food taking forever because it's what I ordered. That is completely ridiculous and not the customers fault. So just be prepared for dirty looks and even if it's not that busy you're still gonna wait a long time for your food and maybe it'll be worth it but that's up to you.

We did about 1 hr of waiting. But we know it is Sunday, and it can get busy; however, it is pretty rude to not be checked on. Our waiter basically ignored us the entire time; she only came to us when we signaled for her. Our drinks were empty, and she did not check to see if we were okay. On top of that, she seemed annoyed to take our order and seemed very rushed. The minute we said our last thing, or so she thought, she closed her tablet and left. I had to tell her to wait; I was not done, as I still had other questions, like ordering hash brown and white bread. We also want some mimosas, which we had to track her down just so we can ask for them. Food took 30 mins, and my order was wrong. On top of that, not once where we checked on when we had our food until the very end, and only because she checked on another table and she saw me staring her down. I felt ignored and disappointed coming here; I swear I get better service at Denny's and would much rather go there for breakfast. The food is excellent, but the service is some of the worst I've seen. Needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

I could have gone with just another 30 seconds on the eggs, as I do like a thicker ooze of yolk, but I'm not complaining. The muffin was tasty and chewy, nicely made. The sausage was perfectly salted and added a nice richness to the entire bite. The salad. This salad was pickled cabbage in beet juice. Shredded carrot, wild lettuce and a side of balsamic dressing. It didn't need the dressing. I drizzled a tiny amount but barely a teaspoon. The entire eggs Benedict with salad is a definite crave-able breakfast dish. The service was very nice.
