    Large Alfred location in Westwood village. I've been here a few times and the girl who takes my order is always super sweet. Your order can take a bit since they get pretty busy, but there is a good amount of seating in a nice and bright atmosphere, so it's a great spot to get some studying/work done. Street parking can be very difficult, but that's all of Westwood village.

    ordered the espresso cola float, and the cold foam was absolutely amazing!! it sucks that it's only a seasonal menu item, but i love it! the service was quick and friendly, and the location is super spacious! love that they provide free wifi with lots of seating. super aesthetic place!

    Cloud Espresso Cream & Ded Cool Matcha Latte

    This is a really nice spot to study or catch up with someone. The inside is huge with plenty of seating. I parked in the garage, but there's also plenty of metered street parking around. I ordered the 12oz seasonal Ded Cool matcha latte and a 12oz Cloud Espresso Cream, and my total was about $15. In my opinion, it's a little pricey for the size, but the drinks actually tasted pretty good. Before mixing, the matcha had a really nice flavor, and after mixing, the blueberry lavender flavor blended really well with it. I also liked that it wasn't overly sweet even with the flavors. The Cloud Espresso Cream was also really good, and the cream top made it even better. Service was fast, the drinks were good, and the space is great if you want somewhere to sit for a while. I would come back if I'm in the area.

    One of the largest Alfred locations I've ever been to... inside is super cute. Lots of tables to study/ hang out/ catch up, etc. Friendly staff. You get greeted right away with the warmest welcome. The selection here is pretty good, even though they did not have Nowhere Bakery brownies that I usually get in stock, but my drink was amazing and they did have the popcorn that I like. The iced vanilla oat lattes here are simply amazing!!!!! It's my go to order and it's so good!!! Inside was clean. Love the wallpaper, decor and overall aesthetic!

    Huge Alfred's location! Spacious and cool to hang out or study in or even to work from. Great menu selection, efficient staff and clean restrooms.

    came here and got the strawberry Matcha along with the cloud Matcha. First thing to know was that the service is mean, the workers there are not friendly and it seems to be a reoccurring theme with the other reviews. we didn't even get asked what size we wanted for the cloud Macha and the person who took our order, was blatantly on her phone, which seemed quite disrespectful. The Matcha cloud was super salty and it tasted more of a creamy drink rather than Matcha itself. The strawberry Matcha was alright however, so I give it a 6.9 out of 10. for the service and cloud Matcha, I rate it a solid, 3 out of 10. the ambiance was chill, pretty small area and it was minimalistic and modern.

    Great first time at Alfred's! Alfred's is located in Westwood village and from the front would seem like an unassuming shop. When you enter though, the coffee shop is lively and the decor lovely. I love the greenery on the walls and the decorations. There's also ample seating and the shop can be used for a great place to study or meet up with friends. I ordered the chai latte iced which tasted amazing. I appreciated how they had different milks to choose from which from the view, seems like the shop makes themselves. Next time I come, I plan on trying the strawberry matcha. Service was great and quick. The servers were kind and answered any questions I had about the menu. Will definitely be back!

    This was my first time going to Alfred's. They have a variety of drinks to choose from and they have coffee beans to make at home. They have a selection of drinks/ juices by the door that you can pick. They have indoor seating area. When I visited it was busy people were sitting and some were standing waiting for their orders. I ordered a lavender latte, it was good. I really enjoyed my drink. Cashier was nice and helpful and he was patient with the customers. Not making them rush while ordering. Overall, it was a great experience. P.S it is kind of pricey compare to other coffee shops, but it's worth a try and going there. Parking can be a headache since there are a lot of stores.

    Lavender latte
    Kathy X.

    This location is so cute, and it's a great place to get some work done, with super high ceilings and a good amount of seating. However, the coffee, at least my drink, was not that great. I asked the barista what's popular, and the lavender latte was mentioned, so I gave it a try. The lavender syrup is very artificial, and it ruined the coffee in my opinion.

    Matcha with cloud foam Iced vanilla latte
    Lynn W.

    I went here with a friend to try the iced matcha latte and was not disappointed. The matcha was smooth and earthy and fairly priced. I like that they have three sizes to choose from. I personally got a small but could've definitely gone for a larger one. The cloud foam on top was 75 cents extra which is pretty good compared to the $1.00 or $1.25 extra charge I've seen at other coffee places. Also they don't charge extra for oat milk! The only thing that got me was that the drink came unsweetened, which wasn't made clear to me at the counter although I definitely should have asked. However the cloud foam was sweet enough to compensate. I love the cleanliness and design of the place, it looks like it would make for a great study place.

    Cool coffee shot. Nice modern decor, and spotlessly clean. My iced American was perfectly prepared, the staff was friendly and efficient, and the line moved at a good pace. I only tried the coffee but they also have the expected small area of pastries and prepared foods etc. They have indoor and outdoor seating available

    Burrito
    Jomar A.

    Located in the vicinity of UCLA this place is packed with students so good luck finding a place to sit. The staff were friendly and got our orders out pretty fast. The burrito in my opinion wasn't worth it for the price but the hot sauce that came with it was great. My family enjoyed their coffee and pastries and would probably try a different location next time.

    We were in Westwood Village waiting for the Hammer Museum to open and stopped by Alfred for coffee. I ordered an iced lavender latte with oat milk. The decor and wallpaper were beautiful, and the coffee was good. I also loved their artistic cup sleeves as they are collabing with Amazon Prime. I love Fall Out and Mr. & Mrs Smith! They use paper straws and don't have a restroom, but the staff suggested nearby options like the Hammer Museum.

The food has been enjoyable on my previous visits, which is why this last experience stood out. The food I ordered tasted great, and the beer and cocktails were excellent. Unfortunately, my friend's burger was served cold and wasn't cooked to his liking despite being specific about what condiments he could and could not consume. What disappointed me most was that our table felt rushed. From the time we sat down until the check was brought out, exactly one hour had passed. We were still enjoying ourselves and wanted to order another couple rounds of drinks, but the check arrived so quickly that it felt like we were being encouraged to wrap things up rather than continue our evening. I would've thought that was okay if the restaurant was busy, but it truly wasn't. Aside from our booth being in use, there were some people at the bar, another 2 booths occupied towards the kitchen side, and one table behind us at the corner in use, so it wasn't about them being busy. I'm hoping this was just a one-time experience because I've genuinely enjoyed my previous visits and would like to come back. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, and I hope future visits feel a little more relaxed and allow guests to enjoy their time without feeling rushed to pay and leave.

Sampa is located in the Arts District near the intersection of S Hewitt St and E 5th right next to Urth Cafe. There's a parking lot directly across the street from the restaurant but you can also park around the corner by Arts District Park for $5. If it's your first time visiting Sampa, you have to be open minded towards the concept itself. Yes, the dishes here are smaller in portion and costs more than your typical fast casual spot. All the servers here are attentive and offer to help with what to order if you're unsure. For dinner, the Crispy Pasta is their take on crispy pata but served with spinach tagliatelle. The crab fat fried rice is a no brainer and depending on the night you come, I highly recommend the Sinigang xiaolongbao special.

It's where they grill certain items, lobster, ribeye, skirt steak, the intestinal part of a chicken (?). So, not tacos but grilled meats so we stayed. twist. First of all, it's a lovely space. In a not very obvious area of DTLA, next to Urth Cafe but no other restaurants. We didn't have reservations so we had the option of sitting at the bar or following the waitress to a back room area instead of the front room that is visible to everyone. My son is a minor, so to the back we went! Seriously, the closer we got to the back room the more I felt I had been cast in "The Chef." Scary! Lol! The back room is black. Blackout black! Black tablecloths, walls, chairs, dark, low light. Very luxurious and open space. Which - because it wasn't full at the time - felt a bit like being in the film, The Menu." A bit too upscale and empty to feel comfortable. More guests arrived later, a large table, so that was more comforting. The food: Recommended *Kara Kara Tamales: braised oxtail with a peanut butter sauce. Wow! The taste was wonderful! Hard to explain but Filipino/African food meets Latin food. It was on the "shared plate" menu, which to me means it will be a lot. But the 2 tamales were not very big. Still, they were so rich that the 2 really were sufficient to share. Quite filling. I couldn't get enough of the sauce! *Crab fried rice: Very tasty and generous portion. Plenty share! Not recommended: The street eats menu. Now, this is what pulled us in - the sights and smells of the food being grilled outside the restaurant. Most of which was on this meme. Like a tasting menu. But for price to portion ratio, it simply isn't worth it. I ordered the skirt steak. 4 oz, cut in half. Cooked down to what looked like .5 oz! Each on a toothpick sitting in a paper plate (or maybe it was cupcake holder?) IDK. I just know it wasn't a good presentation and the taste wasn't memorable. Regular. More grill smell than taste. Not at all worth $8. Service: Really nice. And mostly good. Though they did fail short by (1) Using only small appetizer size plates and (2) Not bringing a fresh plate to eat the crab fried rice on after the peanut butter sauce laced tamale appetizer was eaten. The server brought the fried rice, but didn't bother to give us fresh plates (nor silverware). My son was mortified when I grabbed a plate from one of the empty tables! (Teenager energy on full effect). But after initial attentive service, the variety of different servers whizzing by didn't stop to ask if we needed anything. And I sat waiting at least 8 minutes staring at the rice. I assured my young man that the servers would be fine with me getting another plate to save them from having to. And once I did, he suddenly started eating from my plate of my peanut butter free fried rice. And of course, when a server did attend to us and I let her know, she was glad I took matters into my own hands instead of not eating for 15 minutes. Thoughts: Go for dinner, and order from the full dinner menu, skip the skimpy street eats menu. With reservations you can sit in the main restaurant area that has some view to the outdoors. Without it - back to the black room you go! Know that it will be expensive. And it will be original. Not sure I'll go back. It's very "special occasion" upscale dining. But If I do it'll be with reservations. The meal was memorable and worth experiencing.

I have been here a few times for dinner but this was first time for brunch. I made a reservation, was asked to confirmed reservation 3x, noted it was celebrating a birthday and gave no preference on seating. I arrived on time, but one of my group was parking. There were a few people milling around and I was greeted with "checking in?" No hello, no welcome, no mention of celebrating and told to let them know when entire party arrived. (This is becoming more common to be seated along with a $25 per person fee if I canceled less than 24hrs. I know restaurants are struggling but come on!) I watched as 'walk-ins' were given priority tables and when our party was complete, she was squeezing in a 3rd chair to a small cafe table right by the pass through door. No asking our preference. When she returned to seat us, I said "you're not putting us at that small table are you?" Her response - "yes...unless you want to sit inside." How was that not a conversation first? A professional would have said "I apologize, where would you prefer to sit? I see you made a reservation, are celebrating an event and we had some unexpected guests for seating options." Perhaps she was having a bad day, or was still reeling from a prior customer interaction but she was NOT up to the standards I equate with Manuela. Go for the food but don't think by making a reservation you get any special acknowledgement.
