On our way out of LA we stopped by this place in the Burbank airport for a quick refresher after making it through the security checkpoint. Fairly typical airport establishment, friendly staff that'll help you with menu selections. We both enjoyed our beverages and the chance to relax for a few minutes before boarding our flight. Very uncrowded and quite relaxing considering we were in an airport. Would not hesitate to stop by again, furry another drink or even maybe some food.

Pineapple rice bowl
Bryant G.

We've been traveling out of Burbank more and more lately and this is our spot to eat every time. They have a good selection high quality items. The breakfast burrito, taco play and my personal favorite is the pineapple Hawaiian chicken bowl. It's so good! It's an airport so prices are high, but the food is served quick and the quality is great

Nice place to enjoy while waiting on your flight to depart. Good customer service from the bartenders. Note* the bartender was heavy handed so that's always a plus! The price points were on the higher end and they didn't offer small plates or an assortment of appetizers, since I wasn't really hungry I inquired about it. I was offered fries or house made potato chips and settled for the latter. They were alright, I could tell that they'd be better if they were freshly made and an added sprinkle of salt.

Chicken Caesar Wrap
Melissa F.

This place was soooo good. The service took a little long in the beginning. Honestly the food and drinks made up for it! I'm BUMMED that this place is in the airport. This was the best michelada and chicken caesar wrap I've ever had....yes it is pricey but it's the airport and it's worth it. They are not stingy with the chicken. 1000% recommend!

The California Obsession salad
Susie G.

Friendly service, food arrived fairly quickly. I appreciated being able to order something healthy at the airport. I selected The California Obsession salad and it was delicious. Napa cabbage, chopped romaine, scallions, grated carrots, cilantro, shredded chicken, toasted almonds, mandarin oranges, rice vinegar, tamari, honey, toasted sesame oil, garlic-ginger dressing. The shredded chicken was beautifully mixed throughout so you got some in every bite. Seating was rather crowded and the lunch scene was rather chaotic but that's kind of the rule rather than the exception with an airport restaurant so I won't fault them for that.

Love their selection

Never thought I would have one of the best bagel breakfast sandwiches at an airport. I got the cheddar bagel with eggs, cheddar and ham with a side of fruit. OMG!!! it was so good. Eggs were fluffy, shaved ham and they did not skimp on the portion. Charge me with whatever you want but don't make a meal pint size. I have to find this restaurant outside of the airport so I can get this delicious meal.

Located inside Terminal 1 at the Burbank Airport, this is the first eatery with a bar that you'll encounter. There is a burger stand up the way that also has a bar. However, it's much smaller. My flight was delayed so I stopped in for a drink. I had to wait a bit for a table to open because other stranded travelers had the same idea. I ordered a Sidecar. It tasted good but was missing the sugar rim. Unfortunately, the drink menu did not include prices so I was shocked when I got the $25 bill for one cocktail. Next time, I'll try the burger stand.

Wagyu Burger
Leo V.

Airport food is usually mediocre and expensive, but this place was surprisingly really good. The Wagyu Burger was perfectly cooked, medium rare, very tender, tasty, with an abundant amount of pickles, onions, and their special sauce was made the burger pop. I had gotten a manhattan thinking it was just gonna be mediocre food, but after digging into the burger, I realized I needed an IPA to chase it down with. My wife got their taco salad and it was also very good. Very nice portions. This meal made my trip to Pasadena well worth it. The waitress was very nice and attentive. The place is easy going and felt cozy.

Iced Vanilla Latte
Courtney O.

My husband and I checked out Diane Mina's Backyard Bar and Eats at the Burbank Airport while flying home over the weekend. We had an early flight and wanted to eat something quick for breakfast. I ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte and shared the Breakfast Sausage Bagel. The bagel was super good and the sausage on it was spicy and very flavorful. The latte was the perfect pick me up and it was not too sweet - just the way I like it! I like that you can either order at the counter for a grab and go or they do have staff that walk around and will also take your order. They even had a cold section for premade items. The inside is pretty big with lots of tables and even a bar area. They also have a huge wall of TVs so it is a great place to hang out at when waiting for your flight. Staff was very friendly and attentive. They were constantly checking in on us. Overall, we were really impressed with the food and coffee considering airports don't have the greatest reputation in that department. We will be checking them out again next time we travel to Burbank! Check them out - you will not be disappointed!

Longboard pils
Enrique S.

Honestly the service is OK. But look, you are at a busy airport and the food is solid. You have to take that into account. I get their margarita pizza and ceaser salad. Both super good and always quick with the food. I appreciate this place because it's nice to grab a bite to eat. 5-star because of where it's at. Employees try their best too because I see it gets overwhelming for them. Nice job guys!

I had the nachos and they were generous with the toppings. There was a server on sight and he was super friendly and accommodating. They have a bar on the premises and you can order via the QR code, through the server, or up at the counter. They have a great selection of pizzas, sandwiches, salads, and appetizers. A great place to relax and eat a good meal while waiting for your flight!

Alice B.

I was starving and this was the first restaurant we came to. First of all this airport sucks (Burbank). Hubby wanted to watch baseball so we stopped. I have a burrito and wanted it in a bowl. And got 2 Snapples. $38.00 later I get my bowl. No tortilla? Had to go up to the counter for a tortilla. The food was ok. Rice overcooked but the steak was tasty. I'm never flying in or out of Burbank. There are some pesky sewer flies around. Signs of a not spotless kitchen.

Carne asada nachos and carne asada burrito.
Katy Z.

The carne asada nachos are sooo good and I got about 3 lbs of food. The chips are freshly fried, house made guac and nacho cheese. Definitely on the pricier side but it's an airport what can you do. Service is friendly and fast and lots of seating. The nachos and burrito plus tip set me back $67.

If you need to charge your laptop, the outlets are located by the counter seating. They also have a restroom which was spacious and clean.

San Fernando is a narrow 2 way street but there is parking available. We found a metered spot and put money in for an hour. You have to pay everyday except Sundays. The inside was cute and busy. There are tables and a bar area to sit at. You place your order at the counter and they give you a number so they can bring your order to you. Staff was friendly, they gave us a few min to go over the menu and answered any questions we had. The menu had drinks, small bites and sandwitches. Drinks also came out quickly, although we did have to wait longer for the food items. My matcha that I ordered was really good, it was off the seasonal menu. It was a peach basil matcha, very creative combination and the basil was not overpowering at all. I also got an avocado toast with egg and that item was a little underwhelming. The egg was cold and the avocado needed a little more flavor. However, overall good experience.

He went above and beyond in providing customer service. He made recommendations on what to order and what their popular food items were. For food, this location is offering brunch now. I can say food was very tasteful. I really enjoyed my waffle. It was so yummy. I can say it was one of the best waffles I had. For ambiance, this location has a very lovely ambiance and decoration. It is perfect for a date night or casual hangout with friends. It is nicely decorated and there is a small water fountain too. They also have private rooms for small events. For parking, there is metered street parking and there are couple of public parking locations available.

The team at Inkwell was so kind and worked with us to accommodate EVERYTHING we wanted - from the timing of the plates, to making room for our photobooth set up, to serving a speciality cocktail we requested!! (Which was delicious!) The communication with management was great. They encouraged us to come in a few days before to do a tech test to make sure everything ran smoothly for the screening part of our event. As expected, things did indeed run smoothly as a result! Their Monday night karaoke was going on simultaneously and the sound didn't interfere with our screening at all. We had about 30 attendees and the room was a very comfortable size for us, it's also beautiful! The entire experience was fantastic, we're very happy with how the evening turned out! Thank you to the wonderful staff for making it all happen for us!

The chicken was a little dry and the seasoning on it just tasted spicy to be spicy. No real flavor. The cucumber and slaw also did not help with the bland taste. It really needed an acidic component to bring the flavors out or an aioli. The fries it came with were divine though! I subbed for waffle fries and they were oh so crispy! Corpse Reviver - Get it. Just get it. Refreshing with just the right amount of alcohol I want to taste in my drink hehe. Food came out timely, staff were helpful and attentive. Great place for a group of 4-5 - anymore and it'd be too crowded as they don't have big tables. Loved the vibe of the place. I really want to like LIKE this spot so I think I'll get something else entree wise next time!

I'm gonna be backwards and start with dessert but…read morethat white chocolate earl grey crème brûlée was the most unique and BEST crème brûlée I've ever had. It was absolutely delicious and I had to make a conscious effort not to lick the bowl. Now to the food, we got the frites (10/10) and the 2 item charcuterie board (10/10), both on the happy hour. Super reasonably priced and both amazingggg. We thought about ordering another charcuterie board. We also got a bottle of the pinot Gris (skin contact) and it was delicious. I love a skin contact wine so I'm biased but everyone should try them. We also did glasses of the chenin blanc and the carmenere. The chenin blanc was probably my favorite I've had of the many I've tried and the carmenere was super unique. The service was fantastic (shoutout to Isabella) who was helpful and nice. Also super attentive even when it was busy! The outside patio is super nice looking and vibey. String lights and candles on the tables with a chef grilling right as you walk out of the door. I'm dedicated to becoming a regular now and can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

Outside was a better temp and ambiance so we elected for that . I was expecting wood fired pizza, but they didn't have it unfortunately :( Not a lot of food options here, more of a casual place for a glass of wine.. so we got wine and charcuterie and left instead of dinner as planned. The cheese board was honestly depressing, with the bread being the best thing on there. I wish there was more cheese .. It was a cute place, but I felt a bit bamboozled . We were sat next to a bush , basically directly next to another couple, which felt like we were in their conversation. My car got trapped in with the parked when we were ready to leave. Service was mid , not very personable . Not sure I'll be back for dinner , maybe if they got some better food options. But cute for a glass of wine if you are local.

We tried a yellowfin tartare which was great. I got the pasta which was very good, and my wife got the salmon. Salmon was fresh and great, but the broccolini side was ridiculously salty. Service was very good, but my wife wanted the tartare as an entrée and our server, who was honestly lovely, suggested it wasn't large enough for an entrée. Problem was, it was a pretty substantial portion and my wife would have appreciated it as a main. I loved getting to share the tuna, but if she'd have just ordered that, and not added the salmon, I think we both would've appreciated the experience more. A very good wine list, with some really nice wines by the glass - You don't see that often enough - and limited, but interesting beer. Ample parking, 90 minutes free.
