Sorry it took so long to write this. The chef/ host greeted us warmly and was very patient while we…read moretried to figure out where was the best place to sit. Had the pizza Marguerite with buffalo mozzarella and it was delicious! The server had suggested we get this one rather than the classic fior di latte mozzarella. Better than Naples! When I asked the chef about the tomato sauce, because it was so yummy, he went into the kitchen and brought me some of his homemade sauce to take home. Can't wait to make chicken parm with it. We live far away, but, we'll be back.

I was looking forward to going here because of the great reviews. Should have waited for more…read morereviews to come before coming here. There were less than 250 reviews on Google and Yelp when I checked. Other places, I know that are decent have at least 2000-3000. We ordered the mushroom ravioli, the pistachio carbonara, the neopolitan pizza and the squash blossoms. And within 5 minutes, everything we ordered came to the table. So weird and also tasted like what you would expect, not good at all. The food was pretty bad for about $25 per item. The pizza came out cold with a soggy undercarriage. The ravioli was drenched in straight heavy cream. The squash blossoms were okay, but seemed small compared ones I've had elsewhere. The carbonara was pretty bland. I really have a hard time thinking these review were real or that people's standards are pretty low. In addition to this, our server barely came by until we were ready to pay and he hovered around the table to see what kind of tip he was getting. Also, they take reservations, but they don't seem to honor them or care. I tried to mention I had reservations and was cut off from taking and was rushed to find a table. Overall, a very memorable night for all the wrong reasons.

I used to love the Sichuan cold noodles from Mian. Today I went back to Mian at West Adams after a…read morelong time since I have been cutting carbs from my diet. Sadly I realized that the Sichuan cold noodles tasted very differently from before. I customized with added spicy and added numbness. But the Sichuan pepper oil flavor covered all the other flavors (spicy, salt, sweet). It was either due to the company changed the recipe big time, or somehow they missed some sauce today. To make things worse, the added noodles were served hot - i recall a while back the added noodles for Sichuan cold noodles were served cold with seasoning. Anyway overall experience wasn't close to my fond memory about Sichuan cold noddles from Mian. I still finished the noodles regardless. Other than this dish, other dishes turned out pretty good. And the waiter was friendly as before. Overall dining experience is good, but I probably won't come back to this branch at West Adams because of the Sichuan cold noodles not the same as before.

We were greeted by the owner and his daughter and talk about some sweet people! The owner told my husband and me that it's a family-owned business and that they also live in the neighborhood. We told him we had just moved into the neighborhood and wanted to check them out. Right away, it felt like we were being welcomed into the community. He let us sample a few of the pot pie flavors, and every single one was so good! We ended up ordering the combo meal for $24.99, which comes with your choice of a 5" pot pie or bowl of chili, a side salad, AND a 5" pie. You really can't beat that! We got the curry chicken pot pie and pecan sweet potato pie. The sweet and savory combination was chef's kiss! Every. Single. Bite. The pot pie had this flaky, buttery crust with a chicken filling that was packed with flavor. And let me tell you about this side salad because it deserves its own moment! It's a zucchini salad made with zucchini, yellow squash, Honeycrisp apple, red onions, bell peppers, and a house-made vinaigrette. So fresh and SO good! Now, because we were being greedy AND wanted to support, we also got the banana pudding and a slice of pound cake. Man listen...the desserts will make you wanna slap yo momma!!! What I really appreciated is that the desserts weren't overly sweet. Just right! I could seriously go on and on about how good the food and service were. The ambiance is really cool and laid-back, with a few tables available for dining inside. There's street parking. We lucked up and found a spot right in front, but it was a Wednesday. I can imagine parking being a little more difficult on the weekends since there are several restaurants along Slauson on both sides of the street. So happy we stumbled upon this neighborhood gem. Great food, great people, and exactly the type of family-owned business we love supporting. We will DEFINITELY be back!

Whether I'm stopping by to grab something to eat, hanging out on the patio, or coming for one of their live music events, the energy is always so good. As a vegan, I also really appreciate how many options I can find here. The vegan crab cakes are hands down one of my favorites, and I will tear a Caribbean Sunshine DOWN every single time! Seriously, if you haven't tried that combination yet, I had to put you on. What makes Simply Wholesome special to me though is that it feels like so much more than just a restaurant. Between the food, health market, music, events, and people, it really feels like a community space. Definitely one of those LA gems I'm always happy to support.

It's unfortunate that I have to update my review and lower the stars, but I have to share my…read moreexperience so hopefully a better system can be put in place. I ordered two smoothies, one for me and one for my son: #17 and #31 IN STORE on Saturday, 9/19/26. As you continue reading, please keep the words "in store". When I ordered, the staff asked for my name and phone number. I thought it was a little strange that they needed my phone number since they call your name over the mic when your order is ready, but okay. They were busy, so I prepared myself to wait patiently. No biggie. But then I started noticing SEVERAL people who ordered way after me getting their names called and picking up their smoothies. That's when I was like, "Oh heck no, something ain't right!" After waiting about 15 minutes, I finally walked up to the pickup counter and asked when my name was going to be called. I gave the young lady my name, and she first looked over at the smoothies being made, thinking maybe mine was in the process. When she realized it wasn't, she checked the screen and asked, "Was it a phone order?" Nope! I told her I stood right there in line and ordered in person, and I had already watched several people who came in after me get their smoothies. She then looked in the freezer, pulled out ONE smoothie and said, "They had you as a phone order." Now I'm even more irritated because I ordered TWO smoothies. I told her I was supposed to have two, so she opened the freezer again and pulled out my second smoothie. So both of my smoothies had apparently just been sitting in the freezer while I was standing there waiting for my name to be called. I know the mistake wasn't necessarily the young lady's fault, but what bothered me even more was that there was no apology. Not even a simple, "Sorry about the mix-up." Moving into the neighborhood, I was genuinely excited about having this place nearby and supporting the establishment. Unfortunately, after today's experience, I don't think I'll be back. Maybe reconsider asking for a phone number when someone is physically standing in the store ordering, or have a clearer system for distinguishing in-store orders from phone orders. Because waiting patiently while your smoothies are sitting in a freezer the entire time is definitely frustrating.

We ordered the chicken tenders, a burger combo, pastrami, watermelon wings, and fries, and everything was absolutely delicious. The pastrami was especially over the top amazing, and the watermelon wings were a huge hit! Everything was made fresh to order, and you could really taste the quality. The fries were perfectly cooked, and the portions were generous. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable and affordable, especially considering today's economy. What really sets this place apart is the customer service. The owner and his son were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely appreciative of their customers. They made us feel right at home. If you're looking for great food, great prices, and amazing service, Slauson Burger is a must visit. We come from Las Vegas and will definitely keep coming back! Highly recommend!

I regularly order the Thai basil rice and chicken wings, and the flavor seems to vary from visit to visit. The dishes that originally made me a fan just haven't been hitting the same way recently. The pricing is also on the high side. I was surprised to be charged separately for fried rice and then again for vegetables without any protein included something I haven't encountered at other Thai restaurants. My most recent experience was especially disappointing when my order was incorrect, and I wasn't able to get a response from the restaurant until the following day. There's a lot of potential here because the food can be excellent when it's on point. I hope the restaurant focuses on consistency in both the kitchen and customer service, as I'd love to see it return to being one of my go-to Thai spots.

When I went to order at the counter, the staff said we could sit and they were serve us, which I wasn't expecting at all! I really appreciate they that have both the fast-casual order style and the sit down and enjoy style duality to this restaurant. I got the chai latte and a hummus bowl with falafel (though as I write this I can't remember if that was the actual menu name of the dish). It was delicious--the falafel was one of the best I've ever had taste wise, and a bit on the airy side instead of being super dense, which I appreciated. Sometimes falafel is too dang dry, and they really got it right. The hummus was phenomenal. I'm really such a sucker for a good, quality hummus and it was so creamy and the oil they topped it with was wonderful too. The veggies were fresh and the pita was such a star: it was thick and chewy and clearly freshly made. Immediate 5 star for the food. So glad I stopped by here and will definitely be back!
