This place has been such a staple in hollywood and it's always good. I love that they change the menu to try new things but also keep some of the old goodies. Today i tried the new broccoli dish and the steak frites with salad . So so so good!! Sauce on the steak was fantastic. The fries were excellent . I'm not a French fry person (i don't order because i try to stay away from fried food) and it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside - seasoned perfectly and pairs well with the aioli sauce. The eggs and morning plates are some of my favorite things here for breakfast and i love their croissants and cookies!! The chicken Caesar wrap is a huge hit and i know the Gen Z's love this according to my younger sister lol. I feel like you can't go wrong here, always something for everyone. We've brought friends and family here over the years and we'll always continue to do so. The service is also super friendly . I love that they expanded to the side walk because the wait times used to be even crazier when it was just the patio . I remember sooo well. Love the expansion. I know there's more changes and new things to come as time progresses and we'll be here to see it :)

Im big breakfast burrito girlie and heard about the famous dialogue breakfast burrito. However, being that I'm not a huge fan of sausage, I went with their brisket verde burrito (excellent swap). Good amount of beef briskets, soft scrambled eggs, and hash with cilantro and diced onion bites. The green sauce it comes with was just phenomenal. If you're not a bacon and sausage person like myself, you must try the brisket breakfast burrito here. Excellent!!! Topped it with the honey sage cloud match (very good). Made with A2 milk. Love the hint of sage note. Definitely a come back spot for sure. Bringing my other pup along the next time.

Small spot for a grab and go…read more Don't know if it's something to die for after trying both drinks, but it's affordable buying a small. Don't know what happened but the seating is locked up so not much of a café or place to study, which loses its appeal. Drinks were made fast, but I wasn't allowed to ask for no ice in one of my drinks? I even prefaced that I understand and accept the fact that my drink will look less than what I paid for. I'm all for no adjustments such as lite, med, heavy ice, but to ask for no ice when I want to save it for later and be told no is beyond me. Regardless of the reason I think it's fair to at least have that option.

Dropped by this restaurant yesterday morning for a quick bite to eat…read more I ordered the avocado and tomato omelette (with cheddar cheese as an add on) and a lemonade. The food came out very fast, which was impressive since there were quite a few customers in the restaurant. The omelette came with two different types of bread and a salad. It was nothing fancy, but fluffy and delicious. I also enjoyed the two types of bread. They were nice and chewy. What I didn't enjoy were the salad and lemonade. The salad had WAY too much vinegar in it. I couldn't take more than a couple of bites of it. The lemonade was very sour and did not taste like it had any sugar in it. I'm guessing they're trying to offer a healthier version of a lemonade, but lemonade without sugar is just glorified lemon water. To be fair, there were packets of raw sugar and stevia on the table. However, these are probably just there for coffee drinkers. Like an idiot, I tried mixing the raw sugar into the lemonade to sweeten it up a little, but it didn't turn out well. The sugar crystals were too large and did not dissolve well in cold water. Outside of the salad and lemonade, I did enjoy my experience here. In fact, I'm planning to come back again soon. When I do, I'm going to try out the baked goods they have on display. They look very appetizing.

Bagel comes out crushed flat from a panini press.. I inquire as to why and they said "Oh we don't have a toaster." Follow up visit: I ask is there any way you can heat up the bagel without panini pressing it. "Let me check with the kitchen." "No, only option is to grill it." Meanwhile this is a restaurant that has fresh bread, bagels, pastry, bacon. Charging $7.50 for a bagel with cream cheese is already at the upper upper end of the price range for such a simple item. Not having a toaster back there is crazy. As is not offering to replace the crushed paper thin bagel. As is not providing a warning when ordering your bagel toasted that it will be presented as a crushed bagel chip like bagel post press. As is not understanding this routine request. As is not having a toaster!

The flavors were subtle, balanced, and thoughtfully executed. They also have all the milk substitutes. Important! Aside from the coffee, my wife and I picked up some of their merch. The fit on the crop tees is perfect and still solid after a few cycles in the wash. This is one of those rare brands you genuinely love to support because they stay true to their mission. Great coffee, rooted in heritage, and for the culture. 10/10 highly recommend.

WHAT I ORDERED: Salted latik latte THE DRINK: The espresso was very well done, and I think the balance with the amount of milk and cream was really good! I will say that the latik syrup was a little subtle (it sweetened my drink perfectly but would have liked a stronger flavor), and I could have done with a little more salt, but not an egregious complaint. SERVICE: Great! Drink didn't take too long. VIBES: This place was gorgeous! The aesthetic was pretty inviting, and I loved the variety of seating, including a comfy couch. I saw lots of people doing work so I assume there's wi-fi, though not all the seating is set up as if it were geared for long work sessions (i.e., low tables, though there were one or two regular tables too). Not too loud, and no restrictions on laptops that I saw. BOTTOM LINE: I definitely want to come back to try the other signature drinks - they looked super interesting! And perhaps will have to be a go-to when I'm in Westwood.
