    It's been a while since I have been here and let me tell you it's still as amazing as ever. The food is fresh and delicious. The baguette is the best here, once you have a bite you can't stop. Specially with the French butter they serve. I ordered the Mediterranean breakfast and loved it. Dipped the bread into the yogurt and eggs and enjoyed it much. The steak and fritter was as delicious. Great ambiance always and great customer service. Also a 2025 Michelin .... Amazing

    We celebrated my birthday at République, and it was truly the perfect night. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming, and the service was exceptional throughout the entire evening. The food was absolutely stellar. My husband and I loved everything about our meal, and every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and memorable. The bluefin tuna toast was a standout, beautifully presented with a delicious smoky flavor and kaluga caviar. The hamachi crudo brought a fresh brightness to the meal and was the perfect contrast to some of the richer dishes. The tableside Dover sole was an experience in itself, and the lobster campanelle had such unique and wonderful flavors. Everything was outstanding, but what made the evening especially memorable was the combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and the warm atmosphere. République made my birthday feel truly special. We had an incredible evening and can't wait to return!

    We came around 8:30am for breakfast on Sunday and there was no line. Street parking was fairly easy. From the bakery counter: I liked the montadito (ham and cheese sandwich) The hand pie (short rib) was just okay. It lacked flavor. Quiche was good with the layer of caramelized onions, but the kale was shredded in really long pieces making it difficult to get a clean bite. Very rich. The regular breakfast gave me mixed feelings because the eggs were way too over salted. My first bite of egg was just a bite of salt. Not good. The bacon, bread, and potatoes were good though. The potato pancake was my favorite. Basically a hash brown with smoked salmon and poached eggs. The croque madame was good. Can't go wrong with ham and cheese. The French toast is always delicious. It's great leftover.

    Went for dinner one night and brunch a week before. 5 stars for brunch. Seated fast, everything was exceptional. Do not miss the pancakes! Dinner was just ok. The aronccini were nice and I deeply enjoyed the soup, the rest was somewhat forgettable but definitely good.

    Such a cute brunch spot that lived up to the hype! The vibes inside make you feel like you're in a hidden corner of LA. The food is phenomenal-- the cast iron skillet pancake is both soft, buttery, and crispy. The best pancake I've had! The French omelette is a nice cheesy and savory flavor! Parking on the street wasn't too bad and seating wasn't terrible for a Sunday brunch either. Would totally come back again and again :)

    I have mixed feelings about Republique. Good first: On one hand, they have the best French toast I've had (as a French toast enthusiast). For just a few more dollars than typical brunch places, you get a huge slab with crusty surfaces and a fluffy inside. The interior architecture has a rustic, old European aesthetic. Stop by if you're looking for an interesting background for your next Hinge profile picture. What I didn't find lived up to the hype: It's a trip to even get inside the restaurant. You'll have to do valet or find street parking. Street parking isn't too challenging. You'll have to go into the residential areas or along the main roads. It's typical LA parking. Or you can ride the Metro. There's a Metro station one block over. Then you stand in line where you get pre-sold on pastries before you even get seated. You order food (and check out your pastries) with the host before sitting down. They ran out of French toast by ~1 PM, which was the main reason I even went. Instead, we tried the Filipino adobo fried rice, kimchi fried rice, and spicy chicken sandwich. While they were well made, there was nothing special about any of them, and I don't think their prices were justified. I'm not sure what dinner is like. Maybe it's a better experience. If you're looking to go for the French toast, I'd try to get there early.

    7.13.26 - Last meal before flying home. I've had this place bookmarked for years and finally got to try it out. We arrived around noon for brunch. Parking is wherever you can find one available on the street with a meter. The wait wasn't too bad. You get in line, order, pay, then find a seat. Think that took only about 10mins. It was busy inside already but we were lucky to find seating at a communal table that fit all 6 of us together. The place is bright with high ceilings which opened up the space. The vaulted skylights provided lots of natural lighting. Food pics turned out nicely. Order: Regular Breakfast $24 Filipino Adobo Fried Rice $23 BLT Benedict $25 Steak Frites $28 Short Rib Burrito $26 Mediterranean Eggs $21 Quiche Slice $8 Savory Danish $7 Everyone liked what they got. Mine was the Mediterranean Egg dish. It had poached eggs in greek yogurt, pepper paste, fresh herbs and bread to dip. Light, flavorful and delicious. My cousin and I also share the quiche and savory danish. Quiche wasn't bad but maybe a bit too much when we both already had an entree. The savory danish was so good! I would've bought one togo but didn't want to get back in line.

    Wow, no seats available and nearly no pastries left an hour before closing on a random weekday noon. Republique is a very famous aesthetic French bakery and cafe that changes into an upscale full service dinner menu in the evening. We came here for the interior design and for their most popular items in the morning, which are the baguette and fried kimchi rice. Unfortunately, there was literally no space for us until we stalked a table leaving at the very back of the place. I guess a lot of people overstay to chill, and a lot of people also don't work on weekdays here! There's a very small valet parking lot, or you can scout for street parking yourself which doesn't seem that bad if you can walk a couple of blocks. You line up through the bakery section, order and purchase your food, and seat yourself with a number. It was hard to get service for us, as we had to find our own water, utensils, and napkins. - This Morning's Bread The baguette had a good balance of crisp and flake, and it was light and airy. For a bite of bread, it's good, though it's probably the most expensive baguette you'll eat. Extra butter is the same cost as buying two full packs of it from the grocery store! Anyways you won't have enough delicious butter, which made sauces from other other dishes come in clutch. The jam was dark, smooth, and classy - way less sugar content than your normal jam. People will say it's the best baguette they've had, but I'd say it's equivalent to any other place in the world that's said to bake a good baguette. - Kimchi Fried Rice Very disappointed in this rice. As an Asian who's eaten kimchi fried rice at countless locations, this has been one of my least favorite. First, the rice was undercooked - harder bite which made it unpleasant. Secondly, there was no flavor. The meat just tasted like some generic stewed meat. It definitely tasted like it was stripped of its cultural roots and essence. It was soulless and caters to non-Asians. I had to force myself to finish it. The overall texture was goop mixed with hard grains. - Steak Frites Our favorite dish, with perfectly cooked tender steak with a little glaze and cup of bearnaise (which honestly went better with the fries). The fries were also freshly fried, hot, skinny, and salted well. It was way more cramped in here than I expected, so I didn't even enjoy the aesthetics. For how ridiculously expensive the dishes were compared to taste satisfaction, and snooty vibes of the clientele, I wouldn't come here again by choice. Republique reminds me of a place that puts too much emphasis on solely technical perfection.

    BLT Benedict
    Kimberly D.

    I've had great dinners here in the past and always wanted to come back for breakfast but heard the lines can be long. We came on a Monday at 11am. The line was very short and we were able to get a seat by the window for optimal people watching. The pastries we chose were good and beautiful, but not the most amazing we have ever tasted. I ordered the Mediterranean Eggs which feels like a light and healthy option. My daughter had the BLT Benedict that was SO good. We gave that a 10/10 rating. Their coffee was good too. We ordered an iced americano and hot latte. The restaurant is beautiful with a lot of seating, so it definitely should be on your list of places to try if you are in the Hollywood / Mid-Wilshire area. They usually have valet parking but if you want to save the money during the day, you can find some street parking on the side streets.

    Super trendy spot on a busy, semi-industrial-looking area with beautiful homes nearby. Finding parking is tricky, but possible. When you get inside, it is worth the trouble for the gorgeous interior and delicious pastries. I only had the time and patience (because so crowded and bustling inside w/ long line) to try their many french and filipino-inspired pastries. They were all so very yummy and a delight to eat. I got them to go and we devoured them later. They kept well in the box. I wanna go back and try some more! Will try the next time I'm back in L.A.

    Jaw dropping aesthetic, food was great, little chaotic but worth the stop for sure. You know the drill....quick review...let's go: Food: so only had pastries (kids in tow and low patience) but they were amazing. Everything that came out from the open kitchen I wanted. Ambiance: that is why you come. Charlie Chaplin's old spot...I mean come on and NOTHING like this in LA Service: it was busy, not too crazy but most staff were short, not too attentive and too busy. My only knock on this place Would I go back: Yes Would I go back with no kids: for sure Anyway it's worth the stop and carb load for sure

    BLT Benedict
    Emily B.

    I can see why this restaurant has over 8,000 reviews. This restaurant is truly amazing. We went for breakfast and had to try the regular breakfast and the BLT Benedict. I had to try with a side of French baguette #breadlover. The food was SO good and the portions were huge. I with had room to try the pastries- such a variety! The inside reminds me of Belle's book store. So cute. First come first serve seating for breakfast and lunch.

    Short Rib Burrito
    Ying X.

    A French fusion brunch restaurant near LACMA, a Michelin-starred establishment. The building, constructed in 1929, was once Charlie Chaplin's studio. It was packed on Saturday noon, with queues stretching dozens of meters, so I had to get takeout to eat at the museum. Kimchi Fried Rice: Unsurprisingly one of the most popular dishes. Even as takeout, it was still incredibly flavorful. The rice was dry and fluffy, each grain distinct, perfectly absorbing the sweet, sour, and slightly spicy flavors of the kimchi; the beef short ribs were tender and juicy, with a rich, fatty aroma. The perfectly runny soft-boiled egg was a definite plus. It somewhat shattered my stereotype about Korean fried rice. Short Rib Burrito: Calling this tortilla soaked in sauce a "burrito" is quite creative... avocado, soft-boiled egg, cheese, and black beans--a typical Mexican recipe; the sauce was tangy and spicy, refreshing and stimulating, creating a good balance with the rich, rounded flavors of the ingredients. For Cantonese like me, it was a bit too spicy. Basque Cheesecake: Absolutely delicious...the best Basque cheesecake I've ever had! The cake was delicate and smooth, with a different texture in every bite, from the molten center to the firmer edges, and the transitions were very natural; the cheese was incredibly rich and creamy, almost like eating milk powder.

They're almost always a part of the huge collaborations that Little Tokyo has, think the Hoyo slop stuff or the crazy Silent Hill one. Lots of art on their windows and they usually have a collab drink or something. Just know that depending on how popular the collab is, and even if it isn't, this place has lines out the door and is quite fisted. Tables in front are always full of people. Drinks are hit and miss. Every latte I've gotten, even with mixing is grainy sweet coffee slop and the matcha isn't too great either (way better options in the area), but if you have a sweet tooth for pastries it's not too bad. Decadent cream donuts, mochi donuts, savory sausage donuts, and creme brulee ones too. Shareable, but something I'd need to down with milk or some water.

This was my 2nd time trying these and our hopes were high BUT the raspberry was just awful the filling was strange and it had just raspberry jam inside,I dint eat it. The mango was okay so we shared that. The coffee bean was just awful as well so we didn't finish that either. The orange was the best of the group but overall just a disappointing experience once again because these are not cheap. I'm starting to think I might just have to give up my journey to find these although there are some places in Vegas that look promising. I don't think Reno has any bakeries that make these. They look so beautiful but the taste is a let down.
