    Such a cute little spot in the courtyard of an office building! Lots of cute spaces to sit and they have so many drink specials I wanted to try them all. Whenever I see chagaccino on a menu, I have to get it! I also got a ham & cheese croissant which was sooo good warmed up. I just wanted a bite but I ended up eating most of it in the car! Lots of street parking available (most hours you have to pay). The woman working there was sooo sweet & if I lived nearer, I'd come here more often!

    Had to leave a review for this spot. The staff is absolutely wonderful. Every single one of them was funny and charming. They made the experience great. I love that it's tucked away in the courtyard. it feel like a little oasis. I had a dirty chai and the mango lassi bowl and it was delicious. Hit recommend. Will be back.

    I love Cafe Ruisseau BH. The coffee is really good, and the people who work there are such sweeties. This morning, they surprised me with a smiley face in my latte art. Tysm, you guys. See you tomorrow.

    Waited 10 minutes inside and nobody ever came out of the back rooms...? One person came out and totally ignored us

The resto is nicely decorated & tidy. You screams Beverly Hills. The host was amazing. There is no dress code, they have both inside seating or the garden. Foods: i had a Caesar salad that was mediocre with 2 small dishes with mystery seafoods that were immediately sent back. The shrimp however was succulent, flavorful & to die for. Our food despite being appetizers took approximately an hour to come out mind you the place wasn't even busy. We waited like we were watching paint drying on the wall. Our server only showed up the time that he took our orders then return with the check. Hence why I didn't give it 5 star. I would certainly recommend it if you are not that hungry.

My friend chose to celebrate her birthday here with a tea party for 10 women, and it took nearly two weeks just to secure the reservation. Communication was slow and unresponsive. Her fiancé even tried to pre-order a bottle of champagne for the birthday girl, but they wouldn't accept payment over the phone, which made the process even more complicated. To make things worse, they mixed up the reservation time. They told us it was at 3:00 PM, but our confirmation texts clearly stated 2:00 PM. When we arrived at 2:00, the front-of-house staff was rude and told the waiter--right in front of us--that we had arrived too early, even after we showed proof of the confirmed time. That interaction really set the tone. We spend a lot of time in Beverly Hills and are used to high-end service, but this experience felt unnecessarily difficult and unwelcoming. We were debating between here and The Peninsula and chose this spot thinking it would feel more modern, but the entire reservation process and day-of experience were disappointing. In all honesty, the space itself wasn't as impressive as we expected either. By the end, the tea party itself was cute, and our waiter was very nice, but overall, none of us would recommend it or return.

After a stressful day at the office, I worked up the courage to go inside. The white marble & chic décor provides an elegant atmosphere to dine in. It's also a great spot to get some work done on your laptop. In addition to pastries, they also serve breakfast (all day), salads, sandwiches, pizzas, & bowls. Beverage options include specialty coffee drinks, matcha, mimosas, & spritzes. There is also a case with pre-made salads, sandwiches, & cold beverages to go. Chris greeted me as I approached the counter. He was so sweet & friendly. I asked for a mimosa without the O.J. He laughed and rang me up. He personally handed my bubbly to me with a smile that made me forget about my stressful day. Chris is awesome! I'll be sure to come back during his shift.

(See below) ~ The Waygu Beef Sandwich 10/10: easily one of the best sandwiches in the area. It has a special mediterranean taste with a tzatziki-style sauce that keeps the sandwich perfectly wet. The meat is always cooked & shredded to perfection, & the inside is filled with vibrant leafy greens. I love what you have going on here. ~ The Breakfast Platter 10/10: Comes served with cheesy scrambled eggs that anyone would enjoy. A side of fresh feta cheese, some toasty cherry tomatoes, & fluffy sour dough slices. The star are the turkey patties. They are a great source of protein & the whole plate is just overall a great nutritional source. THE ISSUE: the drinks.. they are so bad.. terrible. I have given Esso many chances with their different iced coffees & matcha lattes. They have all been monstrously awful. It's rare that I can get pasta. third sip before I have to stop. I wish you guys would change your milk ratio & matcha brand. Every milk-based drink is TOO milky, there is no taste of neither coffee nor matcha. The syrups have a sort of grainy taste as well. Drinks & food aside, Esso Caffé is decorated in such a bland way, yet it always feels comfy to sit there. I love the time I spend sitting inside or on the outdoor tables. This cafe has some serious charm to it. The workers are friendly & the business owners are always present to give input & oversee the workers.

    Been here before and the food is generally good, but service has always been touch and go. This…read morevisit was a step down even from that. Walked in on a Sunday around 11:30am, restaurant maybe a quarter full. Seated in a corner with incomplete silverware, no menus for several minutes, no water for even longer. Waited another 10-15 minutes with menus in hand before anyone came to take our order. The food wait aside, what really stood out was the lack of basic check-ins. No "sorry for the wait," no acknowledgment, and when I finally asked for the bill, the manager came over with the terminal, took payment, and walked off without much of a follow-up except to hand over boxes. Just a little warmth goes a long way! Food, when it arrived: * Landwer's Pancakes: the highlight. Three pancakes tall with seasonal fruit, whipped cream, Nutella, and maple syrup. Delicious and a generous portion. * Croissant Sandwich: disappointing. Tough, chewy croissant with thinner filling than the bread size warranted. Hard to get a clean bite. The Century City location is convenient, and parking on weekend mornings is easy before the crowds roll in.

    I've been to Cafe Landwer a few times over the years, and it was usually decent. After today,…read morethough, I don't have any interest in returning. My friend and I made a reservation for outdoor dining for brunch. We arrive right around our reservation time to find nobody at the podium. After a few minutes, a woman comes up and asks, "For two?" before immediately turning around and walking the other way, to which point we stop her and say that we actually had a reservation which we gave her all the details for. She stopped for about half a second, grabbed menus, then turned around again and brought the menus to an indoor table, then just walked away without making eye contact. She did not even tell us to follow her nor say a single word to us once we were seated. No worries, right? Wrong. We perused the menus and waited for about ten minutes, with no staff members coming by to help us. We started looking around to try to flag someone down, but each staff member was either not looking in our direction and/or wearing a different outfit from the next staff member, with some outfits almost having a nightclub aesthetic than wait staff. Eventually, another individual comes by our table and, again, without greeting us or making any eye contact, aloofly says, "Just order off the QR code," which we didn't see because the menus were covering it. Now, my friend who I was with works in the mall, and I know the restaurant offers a discount for mall employees, so as the employee was walking away, I called out and asked if we would still get the discount if ordering off the QR code, and he said yes. Note that in all the times my friend and I have eaten here in the past, it was always traditional table service. Then, we go to place our order, and after adding everything to the basket, it tries to charge my credit card. At this point, almost 20 minutes had gone by since we arrived, with still no single greeting or water or silverware set or anything. I get up to speak to another waiter who was helping nearby tables, to which I am again told to just order off the QR code but was reassured that the mall discount would be applied once the tab was settled. So we oblige and place our order through the portal. Several minutes later, the same waiter who I had most recently spoken with had come to our table (mind you, this is the first time someone came to our table in the entire time we were seated) and said that the restaurant was out of some of the items on our menu. And it was at this point that we FINALLY got waters. At this point, we had to look through the menu again, but it was getting to the point where we were going to miss our movie, so we had to just abandon ship and eat at the mall food court. Upon leaving, the only acknowledgement we got was from the first woman who "brought" us to our table, which was a petty smile and wave. Allow me to make myself clear. I hold no animosity against any establishment for being short-staffed, for requiring QR code ordering, or for being out of ingredients. This stuff just happens. What I do have an issue with is the astounding lack of any grace or hospitality, without even a simple "Whenever you're ready go ahead and use the QR codes on the table" or even a welcome. It just felt as though every person was just trying to get by with doing the bare minimum, and every employee had attitude. Even the couple next to us, who had been seated before we arrived, never got acknowledged. It's honestly a shame, because many of the items here are great, and the offerings are unique, but if this is how Cafe Landwer chooses to operate and treat its customers, I won't be back.
