    IG: @ifoodiejenn | Chinese Chicken Salad
    Jenn N.

    I have ALWAYS loved California Chicken Cafe when I lived in LA. Three years later, visiting for work, they are still amazing and consistent with their quality! I must always order here at least once when I'm back in LA for work. I always get the Chinese Chicken Salad and they really give you lots of veggies and meat. You don't really need two sauces as one is good enough. I can't really say too much about service since I only order delivery, BUT they have given me free chicken meat sometimes so that's cool! Ambiance - hard to say too as I only order delivery. They also zip tie your order so you know it is for sure safe hahaha. 5/5 if you're craving dope salad

    I was in the mood for a salad so went to an old staple California Chicken cafe in Venice. It has been a while since I've been there so I didn't know what to expect. I mean how much can you mess up a salad! I ordered the California Chicken salad with no pasta or croutons. My dressing was the Balsamic Vinaigrette. The salad was very basic but really good. All the ingredients were very fresh. I'll definitely be back soon.

    I randomly wandered into The Butcher's Daughter while shopping on Abbott Kinney because I had…read morereached the point of being hangry. Everyone seemed to recommend this place, so I figured it had to be worth the hype. Plot twist: I didn't realize it was vegetarian until I was already looking at the menu. Normally I'd be a little skeptical, but WOW... I never once found myself wishing there was meat on my plate. I ordered the Spicy Italian pizza, the oyster mushroom "calamari," and a glass of wine, and every single bite was delicious. That pizza though... It was hands-down the star of the meal. Crispy crust, packed with flavor, and honestly one of those pizzas I'd happily drive back to Venice just to eat again. The oyster mushroom "calamari" was also surprisingly convincing. Crispy, flavorful, and a really fun twist on a classic appetizer. And here's the real review: I took the leftover pizza home for my parents, and we all know leftover pizza can be hit or miss. Somehow this one was STILL amazing straight from the fridge. That alone deserves bonus points. If you're shopping on Abbott Kinney and need a break (or if you're just looking for a really great meal), don't let the vegetarian menu fool you. Even this meat lover left completely satisfied. I'll absolutely be back... mostly because I'm already thinking about that pizza.

I loved the matcha latte and avocado toast so much that I decided to drive two hours to come experience the café in person as a treat to myself. Unfortunately, I left feeling extremely disappointed. From the beginning, the service felt unfriendly. I tried showing my server what I had ordered previously because I wanted to recreate the experience I had before, but I didn't feel like she was very receptive or interested in looking at it. When my food arrived, the avocado toast was completely different from what I had originally ordered. When I explained that it wasn't what I had received before, it became clear there may have been a misunderstanding in how the order was entered, but the interaction made me feel uncomfortable, as though I was being treated like I had caused the issue. I wasn't looking to complain -- I was genuinely trying to clarify what I wanted. On top of that, service was very slow and my order wasn't taken until about 20 minutes after I was seated. My matcha latte was also disappointing compared to my first experience. I made a special trip because I had been so impressed the first time, which made this experience especially upsetting. I understand that mistakes happen, but I hope there can be more attention to customer service and communication in the future because I left feeling unwelcome and sad rather than excited to return.

I ordered The Spicy P ($16.00), featuring a chicken cutlet, spicy vodka sauce, mozzarella, basil pesto, grated Romano, and fresh basil, all on a grilled seeded baguette. As a big fan of Chicken Parm, a dish I enjoyed often growing up, I was thrilled to find a place serving it on the West Coast. I used to get chicken parm subs regularly when I lived in MA, so it was wonderful to find something that brought back those familiar flavors - a truly authentic East Coast-style sandwich. I appreciated the chewiness of the seeded baguette and the sesame seeds added a nice textural element. The bread was soft and fresh, and the chicken cutlets were excellent, smothered in gooey, cheesy goodness. While I loved the spicy vodka sauce, it wasn't very spicy, especially for a sandwich named "Spicy."I really enjoyed the Spicy P and would definitely order it again, but I'd also like to come back and try The Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap next time. Ggiata is definitely worth checking out. I recommend ordering online in advance to avoid a long wait. They have a few stools inside and chairs outside, but it's better to take it to go and enjoy the beach or people-watch in Venice.

There's not a ton of room to stand to wait so I'd recommend ordering ahead to pick up. Parking was impossible too so if you can walk I'd recommend that or park in the neighborhoods somewhere. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Caesar Wrap and it was large so you definitely get your bang for your buck. It came with a side of caesar dressing which I felt it needed as the wrap it self was a little dry due to having light dressing. The chicken was fresh which I loved and they even included croutons inside. Overall the wrap was very good! Next time, I'll be ordering it to be delivered.

There is street parking and also a public garage around the corner.
