    Another porto's visit again! Post workout, we had to come through to here to get our usual snag of potato balls, cheese rolls and strawberry banana smoothie. Everything comes out quickly and I just love how far your dollar goes here. The costs haven't changed here surprisingly and the food is always so fresh and crispy! The food lasts very well through several drives up back to NorCal and the food continues to be 10/10.

    Corn & Roasted Poblano soup
    Cristina D.

    I came a little before 11am and it was already packed. There were two lines going: one on the cafe side and the other on the bakery side of things. Both sides were always long but it was pretty easy to get through. The service staff was efficient in getting orders taken and processing payment. I ordered a match latte with oat milk and it was so good. Best part? They don't up charge for oat milk substitution. I also ordered a bowl of their corn soup, which I believe is a summer special. This soup eats was so flavorful and has the consistency of a chowder but without the cream. The sweetness of the corn countered by the nice heat from the roasted poblano peppers was such a nice combination that I'm already thinking about the next time I can eat it. It was served with a nicely toasted baguette that was perfect for dunking. Although I also ordered a turkey sandwich, I was already full from the chowder and latte alone. I took the sandwich to go. I later ate half of it while stuck in afternoon traffic on my drive home. The croissant was baked fresh and that difference in quality stands out. As you can see from the picture, there are two croissants to the order. All of this food was under $25. I'd say that's a great value. Of course, I couldn't leave without picking up some of their cheese rolls to share back home. Need I say more?

    Ube Eclair

    Porto's is such a treat! Lately I have been on a mission to treat myself. So I decided to get cheese rolls, guava strudels, and cranberry scones. The Ube Eclair was alright but the Cranberry Scones is my favorite. I also like the All Day Breakfast Empanadas!

    Absolutely loved our first experience! There is paid parking in the back of the restaurant, it was a bit hectic ordering I'd advise you look at the full menu online and know what you want. They were not able to tell me what was in some of the sandwiches or what drinks they had, and said to look online. I was already at the counter ordering though so that didn't help. Once we paid for our food they give you a buzzer and will bring g it to you if you're dining in. The food was top quality, fresh and absolutely delicious! Nice patio seating, despite the chaotic ordering process I'd go back over and over for the food!

    Portos is the best and a must-go whenever we visit SoCal. Must gets for us are the potato balls, cheese rolls, guava strudel and chocolate chip cookies. Honestly, everything we've had here has been amazing (eg tamales, ham and cheese croissant, cubano, guava cheese rolls). All locations are crazy crowded. Recommend ordering ahead so you don't need to wait in line. Lines move fast tho, if you do come unexpectedly. Parking here is also paid metered parking

    This is our first time at Porto's in Glendale and it did not disappoint! This place gave us really good vibes from the moment we walked in. I think it helped that we arrived very early on a Sunday. This place opens at 6:30 AM. It wasn't too crazy busy yet but as the morning went along, it did get crazy! I think the secret is to visit this place early! We sat down at a table near the window which was really nice to be able to look out while we enjoyed our Chorizo and Egg Breakfast Sandwich, Breakfast Empanada, Spinach & Feta Empanada, Ham Croquette, Apple Strudel, Cheese Roll and Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. The food is very good with very reasonable pricing. Service is excellent, this place is extremely staffed! Shout out to Ahmed who put our order together in the best way possible with a lot of attention to detail. The seating is clean, bright and plentiful. The service staff regularly checks and maintains the cleanliness of the bathrooms. Pat Parking in the front and surrounding areas.

    First time coming here with my husband when we go to Los Angeles again I want to eat there and get the whole experience. The food was good. Was it something to be like I need to have it again no. The staff they were okay. One guy was awesome and helped me. The one who took order I don't know if he was shy or what but no smile no eye contact. The place is nice and huge. Looks clean as well. I will say try it out.

    Fresh Fruit Tart
    Rosa R.

    Family barbecue... I was asked to bring dessert, what better than this amazing fruit tart from Porto's! Obviously had to come early to beat the crowds, as this place is not only busy but extremely popular! I have to admit on the several times we have come, excellent customer service every single time! Obviously, we ordered a few other items that are our favorites - chicken and ham, croquettes, meat pies, and of course, a chocolate chip cookie! Obviously, everybody loved and enjoyed dessert, thanks Portos!

    I love Porto's. Their food is consistently excellent at all locations and I appreciate that their prices aren't crazy like most things these days. I came at breakfast time on a Saturday and the line was out the door. Fortunately, the line moves. It was challenging to find a table inside. The breakfast wrap was delicious and I could not get enough of the salsa that came with it. The cappuccino was the perfect accompaniment to the breakfast wrap. It was a little challenging to get a fork. I learned they only have it at the register so be sure to ask for it when you're checking out. Good job to Porto's for knowing that their food is excellent and popular and staffing their restaurant accordingly.

    The famous Porto's. Everywhere you go in Glendale, you see people with Porto's boxes. Of course I had to go there. I found it right down the street with ample parking on the street. Once inside, it is huge with seemingly 2 areas that look similar, although one side says "Bakery". The bakery side is even bigger with more choices. In the middle is where you can order coffee. In the bakery, you can can choose breakfast sandwiches and I ordered a chorizo breakfast sandwich which was very good! We also got their famous potato balls which have meat and cheese inside. The tricky part is that they give you a buzzer and you actually have to go to another part of the store (the other side and toward the back) to pick up your sandwich. I found this place to have beautiful looking pastries which taste very good. It's convenient and the entire place is a machine with very efficient workers that get you in and out. Overall good.

    Matcha with Plato de Ropa Vieja (Cuban-Style Stewed Beef) and Sandwich with Plantain Chips (Mariquitas)
    Annie W.

    One of my all time favorite bakeries, and Porto's locations. Always very crowded, but worth it for the food. We sat outside because there was no indoor seating available. It was quite hot and close to the road, but there weren't other options. Very lively ambiance. I usually don't come here to dine in, just order bakery items, but their bakery and fresh food is both equally good. We ordered the ropa vieja plate, a sandwich and matcha latte (the jasmine blue one). The ropa vieja is one of my favorite things to get, the meat is incredibly tender and juicy. I love their rice as well, which pairs well with the meat and beans. I'm not a big fan of the plantains or caramelized banana that comes with it, just because I cant get used to the texture and sweetness. Their sandwiches are top tier, I usually get the Medianoche which is excellent ! The matcha was also pretty good, more milky and not a strong tea flavor. Still a good drink! Recommend Porto's for everyone! For bakery items, our favorite is the cheese rolls and the potato balls. They also have excellent cakes. Be prepared for busy crowded store at any location, but the service is always patient and accommodating even when packed.

    Came here for the first time and was pleasantly surprised, ordered the turkey bacon sandwich and a strawberry matcha both were so fresh and so amazing. Also shoutout to Shay for the amazing customer service, she's always smiling and doing her best for us and everyone around her as well. Thanks Shay, we will be back. Thanks Porto's!!

    This I guess it's a mango desert. I didn't try it.

Cute decor and vibes inside. I wanted to try the pistachio bliss that everyone seemed to rave about but since their seasonal menu was out, I went for the toffee nut iced latte. The drinks are a bit on the pricier side, cute cups though! Something about the drink I got was a little off putting. Idk if it was whatever spice they used but I was not crazy about it.

So many people define themselves as experts. Sadly, many of those same people will walk in and say things like, "Gosh, I'm tired, could you make me a double espresso?", clearly assuming that stronger taste automatically means more caffeine. My wife and I simply like a good coffee in the morning. Which leads to the obvious question: what do we define as "good coffee"? For us, it helps us get into the day, tastes pleasant, and does not leave a bitter note. We are absolutely not coffee experts and can discuss coffee, at best, at what we Germans would call "Thekenniveau" -- bar-counter level. I do understand, however, that it may make a difference whether beans were roasted weeks or even months ago somewhere remote, then shipped and stored, or whether they were roasted locally and recently. So we asked ChatGPT, and one of the recommendations was REGENT Coffee in our neighborhood. We went. Our directive was very clear: we explained that we knew little to nothing about coffee, which was precisely why we had come in and were looking for advice. The lady helping us started with: "Well, it all comes down to the settings of your coffee machine when you pour your espresso." I responded that we are not really espresso drinkers -- we drink Americano. She gave us "the look" and explained that an Americano is espresso with more water. The information: fair enough. The way it was communicated: not ideal if your goal is to win me as a customer. From there, the conversation did not really lead anywhere. We were asked questions such as whether we preferred nutty or fruity coffee. That may be a perfectly reasonable question for someone who already knows what those terms mean in practical taste terms. But we had just told her that we did not. That was the entire reason we were there. We were not looking to prove our coffee knowledge. We were looking for someone who had the expertise to guide us. In the end, we bought an Americano. It was served so hot that my wife burned her mouth in the car, and it took almost the entire 45-minute drive to Santa Monica before it had reached what we considered a comfortable drinking temperature. It cost $5. And we did not even particularly like it. Would I go again? No. Would I recommend REGENT based on this experience? No. What makes this particularly disappointing is that this was a tremendous lost opportunity to turn us into long-term customers. We like expert advice. We drive to Farmers Markets to buy fresh produce knowing full well that we may pay 200% more for something that is perhaps only 15% better. But we can taste the difference, and that makes it worthwhile to us. Coffee could have been exactly the same. If I specialized in coffee, I would make it incredibly easy for people like us to enter that world. I would offer tastings. I would explain, in simple language, what "nutty", "fruity", "chocolatey", "bright", "smooth" or "low acidity" actually mean in the cup. I might offer a short class on how to set up a home coffee machine properly. Maybe even machine-specific sessions. Maybe in the shop. Maybe at the customer's home. Because there are customers walking through the door saying, quite literally: "We know very little. We want advice. We are willing to spend money." And even better from a business perspective: Not just money once. Continuous money. Imagine if the conversation had instead started with: "I totally understand where you are coming from. Coffee can become unnecessarily complicated very quickly. Since you mostly drink Americano and want something smooth rather than bitter, let me give you two small tastes so you can understand the difference. Then I'll recommend one bean to start with." We would almost certainly have bought a bag. Possibly two. And if we had liked them, we might have bought beans there for years. Instead, they sold us one tiny cup for $5 over the counter, while the payment screen suggested an 18-25% tip. And two potentially very loyal customers walked out frustrated. That, to me, is the real business lesson here. It is not about whether REGENT makes good or bad coffee. Taste is subjective. It is about recognizing the customer who is standing right in front of you. Especially when that customer is effectively saying: "Please teach me how to spend more money with you." And then making sure you do not send them home without doing exactly that. Small caffeine footnote: espresso is more concentrated in caffeine per ounce, but a normal serving of drip coffee usually contains more total caffeine than a single espresso because the serving is much larger. Stronger taste does not automatically mean more caffeine.

My sister placed a dessert order for my niece's birthday/christening and specifically wrote in the order instructions that everything needed to be light/blush pink to match the theme of an event with over 100 guests. On the day of the event, her husband arrived at the scheduled pickup time and was made to wait approximately 40 minutes because the order still wasn't ready. When the desserts finally arrived, we realized that the macarons and roses decorating the desserts were bright pink, completely different from the blush pink that was specifically requested. My sister initially tried to let it go because we had an entire event to worry about, but after a few hours she decided to call and calmly explain what happened. She wasn't calling to argue, she simply wanted to see what could be done and have the mistake acknowledged. Unfortunately, the owner's response was more upsetting than the mistake itself. Instead of simply apologizing, she became defensive and said that sometimes certain flowers aren't "in season," which supposedly could explain the darker color. My sister then asked how that explained the bright pink macarons, and the conversation became incredibly rude. While my sister was speaking calmly, the owner interrupted her with, "Hold up, don't yell at me," in a very disrespectful tone when she was not yelling at her. At that point, all we were trying to explain was that a simple apology and acknowledgment that the order did not match what was requested would have been enough. Instead, the conversation continued with attitude, and when I got on the phone and told her that treating repeat customers this way had just lost her a lot of business, she hung up on me. Mistakes happen. A shade of pink being wrong would not have caused us to stop supporting a business we had ordered from repeatedly. The way the owner handled the mistake is why we will not be returning. There was no reason for a simple, reasonable complaint to be met with defensiveness and hanging up on a customer. After seeing how the owner has responded to other customers who have shared negative experiences, unfortunately our interaction makes a lot more sense. Customer service matters just as much as the product, especially when people are trusting you with orders for important events.

    My Cafe & Lounge is a beautiful corner café located right in the heart of Glendale. The exterior is…read moreelegant, well-lit, and inviting, making a great first impression. One thing I appreciated immediately was the parking. There is plenty of street parking, a parking structure directly across the street, and additional parking nearby, so getting there was surprisingly easy. As soon as we walked in, the owner, who was sitting near the entrance, warmly welcomed us. We initially started walking toward the cozy booth section in the back, but were told that area is reserved for dinner service and wasn't open... We weren't the only ones confused, as another guest came in shortly after and tried to sit there as well. That left us deciding between a few café tables downstairs, outdoor seating, or the upstairs loft. We first tried upstairs, but there were only a couple of two-top tables available. One was occupied by guests working on laptops, and the seating felt a little close together. The remaining tables were reserved for larger parties, so we ended up heading back downstairs. One of the available booths faced the restroom, which isn't my favorite, but I simply sat on the opposite side and it worked out just fine. Once we got settled, everything improved. Our server was friendly, attentive, and happy to offer recommendations. I ordered the French baguette turkey sandwich, while we also tried the spicy chicken sandwich, which both the server and the owner highly recommended. The owner even mentioned it's what he personally eats almost every day, and I can see why, it was delicious. We also ordered fries to share along with two hot lattes: a chai tea latte and a mocha. Both coffee drinks were excellent and easily some of the highlights of our meal. The atmosphere is charming and cozy, making it a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or enjoy a coffee date. Before dessert, the owner recommended the mini pancakes and the waffles, with ice cream. They both looked great, but I've had similar desserts at several other cafés recently, so I wanted to try something different. I ordered the brownie with ice cream instead, and I'm so glad I did. It was rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious. One thing the owner emphasized was that they use fresh ingredients without preservatives and focus on quality. After our meal, I believe it. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and made with care. Our total for two people, including tip, came to about $120. It's a little on the pricier side for a café, but you're also paying for the ambiance, quality ingredients, attentive service, and the overall experience. Overall, we had a very enjoyable visit. My only suggestion would be to make the seating situation a little clearer for first-time guests, since several of us naturally gravitated toward the closed dining section. Other than that, the welcoming hospitality, quality food, excellent coffee, and relaxing atmosphere made this a place I'd happily return to.

    I've been here a couple of times but always forget to review it... well that ends today. Came here…read morewith a friend to catch up and suggested we stop by for a quick bite before heading to the Galleria. The cashier working there was extremely friendly! I ended up with a house coffee and a jalapeño cheddar bagel. The coffee is ok although I think their specialty coffee drinks are a little better. Can't go wrong with a bagel and cream cheese. I notice they now have a sign where you can only work on a laptop for an hour (I've worked on a laptop there in the past and stayed for2 but I don't think it was a rule back then). With that said, this is a nice place to grab a light bite and read or chat with a friend while there.

    12 oz Pistachio Latte minus whipped cream - good, but I'd pass on the pistachio (tasted like almond extract) next time
