    Northridge Nutter Butter Banana Pudding
    Brianna R.

    Why haven't I stopped by Crustees sooner?! I tried their peach cobbler once at a farmer's market years ago and added it to my list. I thought it was a dessert place, but they have lots of savory items that look good, too. I got a Northridge Nutter Butter, which is classic banana pudding with nutter butter cookies and a peanut butter drizzle. Peanut butter and banana is such a good combo, I'm surprised I've never seen this type of banana pudding before. It is SO good. I saw another review that said it's only 4 bites and zero bananas in sight. I believe it's 16oz, so it's a larger portion. Two could share even so the 4 bites thing was comical. As for the bananas, it was light on bananas but I prefer it that way so it comes down to your personal preference. The pudding was light, maybe mixed with whipped cream. I really enjoyed it. I also tried some of the pecan pie and that is good as well! Classic, with the flakiest crust.

    5" Chili Cheese Pot Pie

    If you go on a weekday from 4-6p, you can't park on the street in front of the entrance. I went to grab some apple pies and ended up trying their chili and chili pot pie. Both tasted amazing!! My kids ate them swiftly and left no crumbs. Both were seasoned well and the portion of crust to filling worked well for the pot pie. I especially love that they have a full menu of non-pork options (ground turkey, chicken sausage, etc...). This was my first time, but won't be my last!

    banana pudding classic!

    had a craving for banana pudding. This place was the cure. I have been here before and loved the shepherds pie. The establishment is clean and welcoming. friendly service and excellent quality pies and pudding! Love this place!

    I've had Crustees a few times now thanks to their booth at the Beverly Hills Farmers Market. It's so good, I keep coming back for more of their pot pies. The flagship chicken pot pie is probably my favorite of their offerings! It's the perfect combination of chicken, veggies and their homemade chicken cream sauce and the crust. You'll understand why they are called Crustees...it's just unreal and is so well balanced with all the interior components. Second favorite is the curry chicken, also loved the shephard's pie. I really think you can't go wrong with any of their savory options. Get their bigger sized pie as then it's the perfect portion for 2 people to share for a meal. And for $10-13 a pop? Crustees Eatery is fire~!!!

    The inside of Crustees! If you have not been here this is what it looks like!!

    I finally decided to try one of these. Very delicious. I was a bit skeptical about the price for the size of the pot pie( but overall I am satisfied

    I recently tried this place for the first time before leaving for a flight and the chicken pot pie knocked me into a beautiful food coma. I had the biggest craving for such a long time and I'm so grateful Crustees exists! I enjoyed a cup of their turkey chili and their chicken chili! I am pleased at the options for chili! Both were amazing, the turkey one seemed a little spiced but it was AMAZING. The chicken chili was great but my preference is the turkey one for now. The chicken pot pie was perfect, the crust made it a full circle moment and it is a perfect serving for just one. I inhaled it before I could get a decent photo of its presentation, vegetables were cooked to perfection and the actual inside of the pie was so warm and seemed like it was hugging my stomach from the inside. I also enjoyed their corn bread which was a little dry but it was still plenty flavorful. I did go back recently for a birthday desert for myself, I'm not a cake person but I LOVE pumpkin pie and I was so excited to go back for a mini one as my birthday desert! It was delicious! Cherry on top for sure. The two times I've visited the staff has been very welcoming and also helped me set up a rewards account that I absolutely will be adding points to. There's a nice sit down section outside but I prefer dining inside if anything, seemed very clean and organized but not too much decor which is fine because the food makes up for it. The only thing I would add as a negative is they do not accept cash payments. I understand cashless restaurants are everywhere now but I really would've appreciated the cash payment option.

    $8 for 4 bites, total waste.

    Banana Pudding :( It's described as "classic" banana pudding, but there's absolutely nothing classic about it. First taste, immediately tasted that horrible boxed flavor, way too sweet and located ZERO bananas. I haven't tried anything else, first time and I'm not impressed. For a small intimate spot, why can't the time be made to make this so called "classic" truly homemade, especially for the price? That dessert tasted assembly line manufactured without a care in the world.

    An oily bowl of tasteless so-called seafood gumbo

    Ordered seafood gumbo with crab and shrimp and rice. I get a bowl of oil with a scant amount of shrimp and NO CRAB OR RICE OR SEASONING! It's bland AND nasty. I called and the owner told the caller to tell me he's sorry and to go online and take care of it myself. I will never order from them again.

Parking is pretty difficult, and valet is $5. I can easily see the parking lot getting gridlocked on a busy day. I sampled a few of their gelato flavors, including the jasmine lychee and soy sauce. Both were okay, but I just wasn't in the mood for either of them today. I ended up getting the Pandan Toast to try. The pandan flavor was really good--not too grassy and didn't taste too artificial. The ice cream also had a buttery taste to it. It might have been from the toast, but I'm not too sure. The bread itself wasn't oily, which was nice, but it was kind of dry. The pandan sauce definitely helped make it easier to eat. I probably wouldn't eat the bread by itself though because it was super hard and didn't really have much flavor. I wasn't sure what to expect from the toast, but it wasn't quite what I expected. I originally wanted to try the mango sticky rice flavored shaved ice because it looked really good in the photos, but unfortunately they didn't have it today. I'd come back to try their shaved ice when mango is in season again!

I've seen people here working on their laptop and groups of people around one table so the vibe is chill and friendly. It also depends on what time of day you come. Weekends usually get packed. As for the drinks and food. What we've had here has always been good. Best to eat their Croffle and baked goods there. Although Matcha is not for my liking, I'm more for their Taro Drink. B says the Matcha here is one of the better ones she's had. I have to agree even their Matcha Ice Cream is good. We get is the Matcha Croffle + Ice Cream, Matcha Einspanner, Taro Einspanner, and their cakes. Only thing I knocked down a star is because Not all the workers know the answers to your questions of what is in what food item or if you can substitute the milks. So that's something Cafe Upper should train all staff. Especially if people have food allergies.
