    Chimichurri Steak 10/10  Side salad 8/10
    Marlisa S.

    Great food just super pricey which makes it hard to want to come here often lol. They do have a lot of healthy choices, everything seems fresh, lots of options for sandwiches and otherwise. Their aguas frescas was yummy. Service was really nice, if you eat there they take it to your table for you. And it's in a private parking lot so there is plenty of spots available. Again I overall really enjoy the food but it may be too expensive to justify eating here often.

    I placed my first order online and it was super easy from the beginning to the end. I ordered the UC Banh Mi and my daughter ordered the Cranberry Brie but she substituted the turkey for chicken. You just select the location and time to pick up then pay online when you're done. Also, they gave me a free cookie since it was my first time ordering online. There were plenty of place to park since it was a shopping center lot. There are two spots at the front entrance but it was for curbside pickup. It was around 4:30pm on a Friday so it wasn't too bad to find a spot. Anyway, our order was ready and placed on the pick up shelf. I didn't spend much time inside but it was very nice, clean and spacious. Our food was super yummy and they never disappoint. My UC Banh Mi had the pickled vegetables like the Vietnamese Banh Mi. I love how they Americanized it with their bread. The extra salad that came on the side comes with dressing. I just put all the salad in my sandwich and it's perfect.

    My daughter take me to this welcoming café for a quick salad for lunch. And when I say quick, they were really quick with our food and it looked amazing! I ordered the crunchy peanut salad That came with marinated cilantro chicken Mixed greens, cucumbers, edamame Mandarin, oranges And peanut. It was amazing. My daughter ordered the café salad and it looked so delicious. my Husband ordered the chimichurri steak sandwich and it was delicious! The bread was so soft mouthwatering. This is a must try. They have great customer service very kind and quick with your food. The restaurant was very clean and inviting. I will be back.

    This used to be one of my favorite places to eat, but after my recent experience, I will never order from here again. I received a salmon bowl that had live flies still moving around inside the food. It was absolutely disgusting and completely unacceptable. I was shocked that a restaurant I once trusted could serve something so unhygienic. I lost my appetite immediately and couldn't eat anything. When I contacted the restaurant, their response was disappointing -- there was no real apology or sense of urgency to fix the issue. It's extremely concerning that food is being prepared and delivered in these conditions. Until they address their cleanliness and quality control, I strongly recommend avoiding this place.

    Came here New Year's Day right out of a Barry's workout and starving. I came in wondering how filling this meal would be going off a friend's recommendation. Nobody was in line, I know it's new years so maybe not the best representation of the norm but easy and quick to order and the food came within the time it took me to get drinks lol. Is this fast food?? Lol The Mediterranean bowl was fresh all around from the sweet potatoes to the tomato cucumber salsa. The red pepper hummus. Plenty of seating inside and out on the patio. A huge parking lot in this shopping center. This might be my new spot for healthier protein bowls

    Love this location. First came here when it opened and couldn't be happier. Very clean inside, plenty of tables inside and out on the patio facing Verdugo. Love ordering online and picking it up. They are very quick. This time we ordered inside and it was not long before our food was ready. I am a HUGE fan of the Mediterranean Bowl! I got it with the roasted chicken and extra pickled onions. Plenty of parking in the lot. Employees are very friendly.

    (Dined 10/12/24 SA @ 2:00pm): The food served by this cafe was certainly urbane in nature at an affordable price! A final meal with her sister before she went back to the east coast, my dear friend chose Urbane Cafe's Burbank location for something healthy and light... and I agreed with her! This was to be my third meal of the day that started at a baseball field, to Bob's Big Boy, and finally this place. When I worked in Santa Clarita more than a decade ago, I often went to their location on The Old Road. Since then, this was my first time back at any location. Obviously, I liked them, so I was looking forward to this even though I was nearly stuffed. Would this cafe's new-to-me urban location be as good as I remembered it to be!? PURCHASE Bundaberg Blood Orange Flavored Sparkling Fruit Drink 12.7floz Bottle ($3.95): I was more partial to their ginger beer for mixing cocktails and such, but I generally liked all of their flavors, and this one had a nice sweetness with a hint of tartness - pucker up! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=rnj1MT3Xr2mZq5GEfboi-Q Ahi Salad w/Japanese Dressing ($13.95): Crafted with sashimi grade seared ahi, mixed greens, coleslaw mix, avocado, feta cheese, edamame, cucumbers, red radishes, grape tomatoes, and sesame seeds, served with Japanese chili dressing and a piece of fresh baked focaccia bread, this was an extremely welcomed healthy and filling entree (I was already full from two earlier meals). The ahi was plentiful, lightly seasoned, thick, and tasted wonderful! It was succulent and settled nicely on your tongue. The dressing was light with a hint of heat, and paired well with all of the ingredients. The focaccia bread was fluffy and great. I'd honestly buy a full loaf if they had it! A damn good salad! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=z5fjwNwfsT_tP80WT9mYGg SERVICE I was warmly greeted by a friendly young woman behind the counter who quickly took my order (I was sold on the banner that advertised this new dish!). I was immediately given my drink and a table top order number. About five minutes later, my food was delivered to our table and that was it. There was no need for any table service as you threw away your own trash and returned the tray to the rubbish area - easy-peasy! PARKING (FREE) Located within The Ranch at Hollywood & Verdugo outdoor premiere shopping center nestled in close proximity to major entertainment studios that included ABC, NBC, Walt Disney Studios, and Warner Brothers Studios, they shared a spacious lot with several businesses such as CycleBar, Menchies, Verizon, and Western Bagel - 'nuf said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A spacious boxy layout inside filled with many chairs and tables in addition to a smaller outdoor patio (where we sat) with plenty of chairs & tables and umbrellas for some shade. With the exception of the highly legible and visible menu on the wall next to the order counter once you entered, there was little else of decorations; it was a very clean place. Plenty of natural lighting came through the surrounding glass walls and doors while an assortment of hung and recessed electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs while pop music quietly played in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Burbank's Urbane Cafe location was a very nice place to enjoy my lovely meal, and I would make sure to return for another (this was also conveniently close to one of the rental properties). It may've been over 10 years since I last ate this brand's food, but all the amazeness quickly came back once I walked in and then took my first bite. The prices were very comparable, the portion size wonderful, and the service was easy and straightforward. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL would-be paid experience was around $20.00 BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    UC Banh Mi
    Janelle O.

    These sandwiches made me realize I need way more focaccia in my life! Truly game changing, everything was so fresh and DELICIOUS I can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu. My boyfriend ordered the chimichurri steak sandwich and I had the UC banh mi. While imo a banh mi is still best on a classic baguette, this was a very enjoyable and unique way to experience the classic flavors of the sandwich! The atmosphere is bright and casual, order at the counter and take a number to your table style. Our 2 sandwiches took at least 20 minutes to come out but it was worth the wait.

    I was hungry last night and I wanted something light, so I made a drive to this location. Ambiance felt calm and not too loud as it wasn't packed either. They also have outside seating, so there plenty to sit. Staff was friendly as well. You place your order at the register, then get a number to add to your table. My food did not take long to come out and I was happy about that turn around. I ordered the "Chimichurri steak" it has: tri tip steak, house made chimichurri sauce, feta, arugula, cranberry chutney aioli-- and a house salad on the side. The sandwich itself was very tasty, and I actually added sriracha sauce to it and that made it taste better. I initially thought my sandwich would come with small chunks of steak, but no they were slices of tri-tip. I am used to eating tri tip on the warm side, however, this didn't make a difference since I still enjoyed my sandwich. I'd come back and try their other sandwich selections for sure. Parking lot is big plenty of spaces.

We've been doing that for a few years now, so that should tell you something right there. Our order is fairly consistent: we each start with a mimosa that comes in a highball glass, so one is usually all we need. Next, we share an order of kimchi biscuits (you get two). So delicious! Packed full of kimchi, bacon and cheddar cheese, it's a nice combo of flavors that play well together. The interior is usually soft and warm, with a nice crunchy crust. Top that with a smatter of the cinnamon butter that it comes with...yum! Our choice of entree varies, anything from avocado toast, to their kale and seaweed salad or any of their other selections they have from their brunch/lunch menu. On this outing, my friend and I both opted for the bibimbap. I opted for the pork bulgogi while my friend got the chicken version. It comes with a generous amount of carrots, zucchini, shiitake mushrooms and bean sprouts, and is topped with a runny, sunny side up egg that serves as an excellent sauce when you mix everything together, along with the gochujang sauce. We upgraded and got it with brown rice in the hot stone bowl. Worth it! The regular bibimbap is good, but when you mix in the crunchy crust that comes from the bottom of the stone bowl, you get an additional texture that makes the dish really stand out. The flavors already come together nicely, and the crunchy bits just enhance the experience. For dessert, we like to share the "lemon pie", which is actually a scoop of lemon gelato that comes in a glass that also includes graham crackers, topped with toasted marshmallows. A nice way to end the meal. And the staff! We usually either have Justin or Ann as our server, but everyone there is super friendly and helpful. They are consistently good at checking up on you and making sure you have everything you need. Just another 5 star reason of why we keep coming back!

It wasn't simple a "comment in passing," I can give you some pretty graphic details from the conversation, but I don't think they are appropriate for a restaurant review. Feel free to check footage to see how long I had to wait for a break in their "comment in passing." I don't love the implication that I'm either being untruthful or overestimating the seriousness of discussing children and intercourse in the same breath in this news cycle. I take it seriously, as do my family, friends and neighbors. I wish wholeheartedly you had just stuck with your first response. This used to be our neighborhood go-to, but after the strange interaction I had today, I probably won't be back. I approached the bar to order at three minutes before 3. This is notable because lunch ends at three, happy hour begins at three. There was no acknowledgment of my arrival, but no big deal. There was a man seated at the bar who was ready to order. Also fine. He asked if "this was a bar" and "do you have beer," and then said "it's happy hour, right? What's a minute or two." The female bartender with glasses says, "yeah, no problem." She pours his beer, processes his payment. Then, instead of approaching me to take my order, begins a bizarre conversation about middle schoolers having intercourse on school trips. Weird choice to make in our current social climate, but to each their own? While I waited for a break in their conversation, my dog said hi to another patron. As soon as I found an opportunity to speak, I asked if I could still get the lunch special. It was literally 3:01. I was told that since it was a minute after, it wasn't possible to even place the order, that the "button changes." So, the minute mattered for lunch, but not for happy hour. If we hadn't been discussing teenage coitus, the button still would have been accessible. I went elsewhere.

    Aeirloom Bakery has been in Toluca Lake over 10 years now and there is nothing not to like, except…read morethey are only open until 4 pm. Now, this is not just a bakery. It is an amazing restaurant with all organic food, all made to order and served with a smile. They are dedicated to serving only the finest organic foods and coffees. The place is just beautiful, inside and out and you will get the best service, be it if you eat there or go to the bakery area that is amazing. They have indoor and outdoor seating. You can get a meal there or eat their wonderful pastries. If my camera does not start working better I am going to throw it though a wall. There were some dishes I had or have had and asked if they could take a photo for me. They did better, they just directed me to where I could grab some of their amazing items. We have had them all. The bakery is the best. You will love their cakes and pastries. It is all just so great and never stale. I love any of their chocolate cakes. Their food is to die for. The only thing I did not love was their eggs because I did not like the bread it came with. I bet I could have changed it, but it was good. They have wonderful soft tacos and their salads are great. They even have burgers, but I have not tried them. They have a French toast that you can add whatever you want to and it is served so you put what you want on it. We love their benedicts. I have had one with scrambled eggs and a salad that was heaven. All of their fruit bowls are the best. They have something for everyone. Their prices are a tad high, but you get what you pay for, great organic food. ​What truly makes Aeirloom special is the community they have. Everyone is so nice and more than once we have seen the same people there.

Music was kinda loud that it was kinda hard to converse with friends. Bartenders we're nice, although it took awhile for our orders to be served. Quesadilla and garlic fries we're not bad choices. I Just can't say the same to the chicken tenders. Parking is residential so a little walk shouldn't be a problem. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to visit this bar again.

Pros: free parking in the back, bartender is friendly, food is offered, space is large. Cons: food and drinks were bad, games were minimal, damaged, with pieces everywhere, staff was off putting Examples: - my friend ordered a hot chocolate and said it was the worst she's ever had. The water to powder ratio made it more like tea. She asked for more powder. They brought out a Swiss Miss packet, and made passive aggressive comments about how they were going above and beyond for her and they should charge her double (she's not a picky person so for her to complain you know it's bad) - we only found three games in the place but they were small plastic things like flick the ball into the hoop with all pieces out of the boxes and laying randomly under a tv tray behind a bar table - the food wasn't very good - the waiter didn't remember he needed my payment for the two hours I was there - the menu was basically non existent because their fryer was down and so they couldn't offer most items - it was dark and hard to see anything - the owner and her relative took over our hangout for around 30-40 min, asking us to bring in our "actor friends" and help them get more business.

Dre was a good and helpful server as we asked her to put cheese and basil pesto on the side and grain wheat toast and she was open and helpful and checked on the six of us consistently in the hour or so we were at our table. The other two couples also enjoyed their food. We were seated on the top level with a view. As a note, they put a 20% "service charge for 6 or more guests," even if we each paid for our own meals, but it was perfectly fine. We all definitely recommend it if you're in the NoHo area.

I fell in love before i even saw the menu. Now don't even get me started on that world class water. Best water I've ever consumed. Perfectly cold and delectably drinkable. They have a whole freaking sign for their sauces and dips. I'm in love. I got a Shirley temple and if i could marry a place instead of a person, the Shirley temple would be my reason. It was FANTASTIC. Our server, Isaiah, was absolutely amazing and on top of things, refilling our water before we even hit half glass. Not to mention his energy and vibe was so welcoming and fun. We got the PuPu platter for two, came out within minutes, I could spend the rest of my life eating that alone. Isaiah recommended his favorite sauces, Garlic Chive and Chipotle Citrus, they were amazing. We got the shrimp and lobster roll, I officially entered heaven. The Isles of Club sandwich was the finishing touch that had me laughing from joy. Near the end of our dining we meant Max, another server, who is absolutely fantastic, brought us everything we needed, boxes, sauce containers, bags, to-go dessert. His energy was also amazing and super fun. Now some extra things to note: -I'm not a big mac salad girly, but holy moly guacamole i loved their Mac salad. -anything tempura/fried in this place is heaven itself -their fries are perfect -the vibe is beyond life you might start crying in joy -be ready to want to buy everything on the menu and then some -I downloaded yelp just to leave this review Overall, Broken Compass Tiki is the perfect place for everyone. Their service is top tier, the food is delicious, the water is a treasure, and so much more. I will be back and I hope everyone has a chance of experiencing pure joy at this place.

    Broken Compass Tiki is a pirate themed tiki bar in Burbank…read more They don't having a parking lot, but it was very easy to find street parking just around the corner on a Sunday afternoon. The front of the building is a little vaguely marked, and the entrance has speakeasy vibes, which was a surprise. Upon walking in the front door, there is some tiki décor and a small counter in the rear. I remember thinking to myself "what the heck, this is it?". I checked in at the host stand on the left, and was handed me a boarding pass. She then led us through a hidden door behind what looked like a shipping crate. We were now in the real Broken Compass. The interior is a good size. The two-sided bar seats around a dozen. There is a lounge side of the bar that has two large booths along the wall, and another area with comfortable looking couches and lounge chairs. The main dining room has some tiki hut booths, and two sections of tables with half booth and half chair. The décor is pretty extensive with a good mix of pirate, nautical, and tiki themes. There is a lot of bamboo, thatch, rope, cargo netting, skulls and skeletons, port holes, octopus tentacles, jellyfish, tiki lights, and more. The ceiling is dark with various nautical and pirate markings, and even tied up ship sails overhead. The tiki hut booths have the parrots from the enchanted tiki room above them. Even the two restrooms are nautical themed, with beach and marine sounds playing. There is a lot of great décor to look at. We arrived around 2pm on a Sunday, so it wasn't very busy yet. By the time we left a few hours later, it was starting to get busy. We decided to sit at the bar. We started out with the buffalo cauliflower ($14) for an afternoon snack. The serving size was generous, and the buffalo sauce had a good tang. It was served with some sauces, and was surprisingly filling. A nice feature of the cocktail menu is that each drink displays one to three compass stars to indicate the strength of the drink. Their cocktails use a great variety of liquors including ones you don't often see. Many of the ingredients are made in-house. I started out with Chupacabra's Vacation (Demerara Rum, Jamacian Rum, Pomegranate Reduction, Cinnamon, Lime Juice, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $17). It is served with a flaming lime on top and a little fire show. It was balanced with a light booziness, some light pomegranate flavor, and a cinnamon sprinkle on top. She started out with the Bittersweet Paradise (Jamacian Rum, White Rum, Campari, Passionfruit Syrup, Lemon, Lime, Pineapple, two-star boozy rank, $18). It didn't drink boozy at all, and was passion fruit forward, with light bitterness. My second cocktail was the Bermuda Dune Buggy (Gin, Overproof Rum, Kumquat Liqueur, Cassis, Orange, Lime, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $18). It had a very unique garnish of a Chartreuse infused gummy which was delicious. The drink was nicely balanced, and didn't really drink boozy even with overproof rum in it. They have a rotating monthly cocktail and she tried the Tropic Like It's Hot (Coconut Washed Lemongrass Infused Rum, Mango, Lemon, Coconut Water, Amaro, $17) which was created by one of our bartenders Daniel. It was served in a Spam can and was light and refreshing with a nice pop of fruit at the start, and a very nice coconut flavor. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and had great conversation with our bartenders Daniel and Monica. They also provided excellent service. Broken Compass supports payment with the InKind app which gives you 20% back (10% on Friday and Saturday) in InKind cash. We had a really great time here, and the drinks, food, décor, and atmosphere were excellent. I purchased a Hork (Horse-shaRK) mug for $50 to bring home as a souvenir. We would definitely return again when in the area.

That says a lot about the staff. Our server, she was a young lady, was on top of everything and really made our time here enjoyable. I came here for happy hour on a Tuesday was surprised to find out they do $2 tacos and $5 margaritas. Let me tell you, the tacos are delicious and the margaritas are STRONG. It's a hell of a good time. I really enjoyed the chicken taco and carne asada taco. The meats were juicy and very flavorful. I also ordered their nachos, chili cheese fries and bread pudding. The nachos were made perfectly with the chips being thin and crispy. They used a couple different cheeses and the jalapeños were a nice touch. Definitely ordering it again, I can do without the chili cheese fries. It was good but it wasn't amazing. Their bread pudding was HUGE and I can see why it's one of the popular items here. The bread was crispy on the outside and soft and gooey in the inside. Morrisons is definitely a fun place to be. Perfect to enjoy happy hour, catch the games on, and hang out friends. They have plenty of seating inside and outdoor with heat lamps. They are dog and kid friendly as well

Located inside Hotel Amarano (also a hidden gem), FYC (For Your Consideration) emits a classy ambience and a cozy vibe. This is a place where celebrities will come to dine because their privacy is respected. It's intimate enough for date night but also a perfect spot to catch up with friends. Of course, Te-See & I are always dressed to the nines regardless of where we go, but this time our fashionable wardrobe was the perfect attire for this chic lounge. Libby (director of sales & marketing) even came over to tell us how fabulous we both looked. We had an enjoyable conversation with her, and she told us many wonderful things about Hotel Amarano. I'll definitely recommend it to visitors and may even book a staycation for myself. Norm the bartender was friendly and attentive - engaging us with lively banter. I had the Bouquet of Roses - a refreshing combination of Kettle One Peach & Orange Blossom vodka, Lillet Rosé, Rosé wine, & peach purée. It was perfect for the summer evening. Te-See had the Spicy Passionfruit Paloma - minus the spicy. It was also very tasty. Anton also had the Paloma but spicy. I compared the two and liked the spicy version better. I had to leave before food was ordered but my friends said that the Shrimp Cocktail and Parmesan fries were delicious and ample enough to share. I really liked the vibe of this place and look forward to coming back. *Valet for the hotel or street parking.
