    Small Tater Tots
    Myles P.

    So I wanted some breakfast that was close by where I reside and I've heard about Egg Tuck from coworkers, so I gave it a shot today. As I entered the restaurant the aroma of the eggs, meats cooking grabbed my attention and had me curious what to try, I had their Spicy Royal West Sandwich and it was a hit. The sandwich with its fillings of Spicy Korean beef patty, melted Cheddar, veggies and over medium egg was fantastic as well being flavorful with the Sauces inside. Also with that I had their small order of Tater tots that were very crunchy. The sandwich itself was very fulfilling and had me stuffed! I would definitely recommend that place who would like a great breakfast sandwich to dine at or on the go. Also the service was great and the little restaurant was nice.

    If you like eggs, you won't be disappointed by Egg Tuck's egg sandwiches. You can also order burrito options as well or eggs over fries/tater tots. I like to stick with the original/classic egg sandwich and depending on my mood with or without avocados. Signature Classic Egg Sandwich (5/5) One of the highlights to Egg Tuck's sandwich is their absolutely delicious Brioche bread that's grilled to perfection and soaked in butter giving it a rich buttery flavor with each bite. The eggs are always so fluffy, creamy, light, and well seasoned with the perfect amount savori-ness from their Signature Egg sauce and House Aioli. The fresh chives they put on top is more for aesthetics than for flavor. I never feel gross or heavy after eating their sandwiches. As for service, it takes about 10-15 minutes for them to make your order. You order at the kiosk or you can also order in-person with the staff. There are a few tables inside where you can eat at, but I think most people do take-out. If you take-out, they put your sandwich in a cardboard box and cover the top with a film so the previous eggy-goodness doesn't fall out. Staff were ok - what you can expect at a fast food place.

    Food was made fresh, service was expeditious. You order at the kiosk and viola, they bring your order to you hot n' ready.

    Very yummy Korean styled egg sandwich! I like getting the most basic option because they come pretty big and also pretty greasy so anything more would be hard to finish. Service was great and food came out quick.

    Pretty amazing scrambled egg sandwiches with excellent service. Had done in order, location in a little strip mall; not the best location but worth the drive!

    I do not take evaluating breakfast sandwiches lightly, coming from New York, where we have the best (arguably the only) true breakfast sandys. This is the ONLY spot I've found to not only be worth getting a breakfast sandwich from when outside of NY, but actually is the best and I seek out actively to get whenever I can. The savory bread, the incredible egg sauce, and of course the fluffiest most flavorful eggs. I wish I could have this with me everywhere I went. This is truly a secret receipt worth getting every time. My hack: get the avo egg and add bacon. I ended up having that and also a regular bacon egg. Yes I had two because they're that good. Not necessarily sit down places but the most clutch thing to uber eats or door dash. You're getting it for the food and because it's delicious; everything else is irrelevant. Worth the wait. Worth the drive. Worth every penny. Every time. This sits on my leaderboard of all time greats as far as taste is concerned.

    Broken record warming - Why can't Yelp allow 1/2 stars?!? I wish I could give this place 4.5 stars. I got the Original, which has chives, siracha aioli, egg sauce on brioche. Very good!! Only thing better is if the chives were mixed in somehow because you get them with first couple of bites but there are none except on top. Maybe put some in the brioche pocket before putting in eggs? I also got the iced chai churro latte. Very yummy! Wife got the sweet matcha latte. Cathie wished they had an option to cut the sugar level because it is pretty sweet. All in all, very enjoyable and will be back!! Next time, have to try some bacon or maybe the Korean patty.

    Okay my picture doesn't do this place justice, but everything was so amazing. I got the orange juice, and the bacon egg tuck sandwich. I loved how they toasted the bread, and it's just so fluttery with the butter taste. The tater tots that came on the side was also delicious. As I only came here to pick up and dine at home, I felt their system was pretty efficient, ordering off a screen. I just wish they had more tables/ chairs for when I need to wait.

    Easy parking but no bathroom you gotta walk to whole foods. The best soft scrambled eggs I've ever eaten in the sandwich. It's slightly less delicious in burrito form. Strawberry matcha was a little too sweet for me. Overall, loved!

    AMAZING little brunch spot. Shout out to Richard for being so welcoming, and thoughtful! Ensuring me and son were well taken care off. Stopping by one morning after dropping off a package for delivery at UPS is the best decision I have ever made. I now stop by at least 2 or 3 times a week. Their breakfast burritos? To die for! Best I have ever had. Their tater tots? Delicious and crispy! It's a must with every order, size large you ask me!

    They weren't kidding when they said it was super messy to eat. Good thing the packed a bunch of napkins. I accidentally stumbled upon this place and it looks like it's a newer spot in West Adams just across from all the fancy new apartments on La Cienaga. I got the Egg and Ham Egg Tuck Sandwich and it was as advertised. I would say it was kind of overpriced for what it was (an egg sandwich). I would say it's worth trying once for the novelty. Service was good though.

    My boyfriend and I tried this place for the first time. They're food tastes great! We wanted to try their sandwich and the burrito so we shared them and they did not disappoint. The tator tots were also amazing. The eggs are so fluffy and creamy with their sauce.

    I'll try to keep the egg-puns under controlled in this review . In summary, I ordered the Avo Egg sandwich, friendly staff took my name, and in about 6 minutes my sando was ready! Took it home nicely packaged and enjoyed it semi cold so I suggest you eat it ASAP. The soft egg was just perfectly salted, the size and thickness of the sandwich is generous, except once you get to the bottom there will be about an inch of just bread left over. They cut it in such a way, leaving an inch uncut so that the soft egg does not spill out. Overall a tasty egg sandwich. I had visited their Ktown location many years ago but I've seen them expanding all over LA. This time I visited their new La Cienega location for their Grand Opening! For their first 100 customers, they were offering $1 egg sandos or burritos. My experience trying to get to this location was not great. Take patience to find parking. The cross streets of La Cienega and Jefferson is super busy during the morning commute and probably afternoon commute as well. I ended up finding street parking a block away but they do have a small parking lot shared with other businesses. Minus 1 point for the location. Great if you're walking by, walking to or from the Metro, but if you're driving here take patience. The ambience is like a fast casual food establishment with limited seating and with a view of the kitchen of the staff hustling those orders out. Congrats on your new location!

    We came for Dine LA, and this was way above my expectations. I knew it would be a chef-y place,…read morebut I didn't expect to love my meal so much. Dinner was $70 per person and consisted entirely of shared plates. It turned out to be plenty of food. We started with the roasted shishito peppers and the crispy pork belly. That pork belly was the best dish of the night - absolutely delicious. Next came the chickpea fritters, which were also really good. The roasted beet salad was up next. I hate beets. But I still liked this. I wouldn't order it again because, yeah, I really don't like beets. But if you like them even a little, you should get this. I actually ate several bites of this, and it was nice. The Sichuan Chili Bass presented a similar situation as I don't really like fish - but again, I ate this and it was quite tasty. Dessert was a "s'mores" situation - a messy, glorious bowl of chocolate, meringue, graham cracker crunch and strawberries. Service was awesome - perfectly pacing the meal. My friend had a couple of cocktails which were gorgeous. And the room is lovely and light. I don't love the neighborhood and parking can be tough. I definitely would come early unless you're taking a taxi. Genuinely surprised how much I liked this meal. Everything was very well done and clearly made with care without seeming fussy or too precious. Highly recommend and would definitely come back. This is a place to take your out-of-town friends to.

    So stoked that I finally got to try this place. It no longer has to be stuck in my "want to go…read moreplaces" bookmarks! We were able to secure a 5:30pm reservation on a Saturday night with outdoor seating. Friends had dined here several times so started off the night with some good recommendations! For a party of four, they recommended about 5-7 dishes to share. I have unique allergies so both the staff and kitchen were extra careful and made sure to let us know if any of the dishes we ordered had any potential cross contamination. To be safe, we didn't order one of their popular dishes (green beans) as it has cashews. We thought about having those to the side but were afraid there could be potential contamination from the pot they make it in. We ordered about 6 dishes to share and ordered a matcha tres leches to share per each couple. We probably could have ordered another main but we left with satisfied bellies. Naan & Dips - $21 Must get! Naan is super flavorful and comes with two dipping sauces. It was a good portion size to share among 4 people Roasted Carrots - $19 Couldn't get the green beans due to my cashew allergy so we opted for the next recommendation given by our waiter! The carrots were so tender and flavorful. Tomato & Stone Fruit Salad - $24 I really enjoyed this one although our friend felt like the Chicago location made this more flavorful. The creamy tofu sauce with chili oil makes a great pairing! A great refreshing way to start off the meal before all the heavy flavors from the mains! Ginger Chili Yum Salmon - $38 Salmon was extremely tender and cooked well. It comes with two pieces of salmon, so it made it easy to share between the two couples. The sauce was okay for me. Sticky Glazed Pork Shank - $48 My absolute favorite from what we ordered. Meat fell off the bone and was seasoned so well! I liked the addition of lettuce and pickled veggies. You can eat as is or make it into a lettuce wrap! Highly recommend, maybe next time I won't share this one haha Pork Belly Noodles - $36 Pork belly was tender, but I don't remember much from it...also the portion size was lacking so maybe that's also a factor. 2 Matcha Tres Leches - $17/each YES to this! This was such a divine way to end our meal. The blackberry frozen jam and matcha whip was such a treat! Loved the addition of matcha white chocolate quinoa crisps!

It's a small self served restaurant with a limited menu that changes, since not everything we saw on yelp was available. When we visited the options were crispy chicken/hot link sliders, different variations of tots and beignets.

The chicken was well seasoned and crispy paired with tangy pickled vegetables and a tasty pretzel bun. The combination of flavours packed a punch but we did wish for a thicker slice of chicken. The tater tots were very well seasoned too and the sauces were yummy, something acidic would be a nice addition to cut through the fatty goodness. When we asked for utensils they didn't have any forks so they gave us one spoon and one knife. We made it work. Definitely want to come back to try other things on their menu whenever they rotate it.

It paired absolutely beautifully with a pint of their Bike Shed Brew. I felt like I was in London, spot on! The only thing I would add is some HP Sauce and/or Tabasco. I waited 10 years to finally check this place out and it was absolutely worth it! I'd love to bring people, my girlfriend even said it would be an amazing wedding venue, we just wish they had a better parking situation.

    The employees seemed nice and friendly, but service felt really rushed even though the restaurant…read morewas pretty dead. Our waiter also forgot our second round of drinks. Gave us our check so we just decided to leave. We originally came in because we loved a lot of their vegan options: the zucchini fries, mint pea hummus, Brussels sprouts, wild mushroom salad, etc. Sadly, have been discontinued. I really wish they would bring some of them back because they were always a staple for us, especially when grabbing drinks at the bar. We also used to love having them with a Lane Splitter, which they unfortunately don't carry anymore either. Overall, it just doesn't feel like the same experience it used to be. ):

We've visited a couple of times…read morebefore and always had an amazing and enjoyable experience, so we were really looking forward to coming back for such our 2 year anniversary. Unfortunately, this visit was completely different and left us extremely disappointed. The night we went, there was a large party of at least 30 people gathered around the bar, which made it difficult to get in and out of the restaurant and took away from the overall atmosphere. We ordered the Bicol Express Mezzelune and Crispy Duck Pancit, along with the Clarified Ube Sour and Calamansi Mojito. Unfortunately, neither of us enjoyed the flavor profiles this time. The Bicol Express sauce was too sweet for our taste, while the filling itself was quite dry. The sauce on the duck pancit was also extremely salty. We were hoping our drinks would help cleanse our palates and balance out the meal, but they were forgotten and didn't arrive until the very end. To top things off, after we paid, our credit card wasn't returned to us, and we had to ask another server to retrieve it. Overall, this was a really disappointing experience, especially since we chose this restaurant to celebrate our anniversary and had such great experiences here in the past. We know they're capable of providing a much better experience, which made this visit even more frustrating. After this experience, it's unlikely that we'll be coming back anytime soon. That said, because our previous visits were so enjoyable, we might be willing to give them another try in the future and hope this was simply an off night.

My wife and I stopped here a few weekends back for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised with just how much I enjoyed the food. The ambiance here is pretty generic, white and bright and very copy and paste of a lot of places popping up recently. The staff was super friendly while taking our orders and dropping the food off, which is always appreciated. I ended up ordering the Santo's Turkey Melt which is smoked turkey, grilled onions, Swiss cheese, and chipotle aioli served on sourdough with a side of french fries. The sandwich was really good and the same can be said for the french fries and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of fries given, so thumbs up to that. I forgot what the food costs so I visited the website and for some reason they don't think it's important to put that online, which is pretty darn stupid if you ask me. Overall, I didn't have a bad experience at Sandcouch Cafe and I would visit again in the future thanks to it's convenient location. The food was solid and the staff was friendly, and that's really all I need when ordering a sandwich.

It's conveniently located to the LA Convention Center, Crytpo.com arena, and LA Live which makes it a must visit before or after an event! I am obsessed with their happy hour, which offers healthy items at discounted prices with generous portions! I have been here so many times throughout the years but most recently found myself here during a busy World Cup match! Regardless, the service and quality of food was not sacrificed! I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!

Overall, I'd come back for the food, but I'd probably steer clear from cocktails and order a real drink.

Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, with authentic flavors and quality ingredients that stood out from the first bite to the last. The ambiance was welcoming and the art was tasteful. What truly elevated the experience was the service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the meal. They were quick to offer recommendations and ensured everything was perfect without being intrusive. We ordered the tostaditas de atún agua chile negro, beet salad, carne asada taco and Al pastor taco and watched the World Cup game. Distrito Catorce combines exceptional food, a great atmosphere, and top-notch service. It's the kind of place that leaves you planning your next visit before you've even finished your meal. Definitely plan on coming back to watch more World Cup games.

To be honest, I was already biased because his Smorgasburg pop-ups were consistently good. But Distrito Catorce is different , it's like art. My favorite dish was the tacos de papa with salsa macha. The crunch of the potato taco riding into the salsa macha and crema felt like home, but with some extra pop. His salsa game is on point. The scallion salsa on the ribeye taco was also gas. Lastly, I really dug the tostadita de atún. It hit perfectly on these hot summer days. Low-key, I still want to try the El Rey de Noche. Tacos de beef trompo are starting to hit LA, and dude was ahead of the curve making picanha-brisket tacos de trompo. Service is smooth too. The servers are helpful, and solid at the bar. Overall, it's a cool spot with a menu that feels unique to LA.

    This was our first time dining in the arts district, and I picked your restaurant strictly for the…read moreambience that I saw online. Most times, a good ambience means mediocre food so I'd just hoped it was edible. Good Lord, was I wrong. Several things on your menu were the "best we've ever had" of that item, starting with the cornbread. I never order chicken when eating out because it's boring and usually dry. Your chicken was so moist - the spice level so perfect - that I had to share it with everybody at the table. Everything that arrived was met with "Oh my God. Have you tried that?" The only thing I didn't love was the parsley eastsider drink. I often have an Eastside when I am out, but perhaps the addition of parsley just made it taste like I was on a juice cleanse. Our waiter, Angel, noticed I wasn't gulping it down and asked if he could get me something else. I kept telling him it was "fine," but he did not accept "fine" as the bar of satisfaction so I asked for a margarita. He offered to add heat and I was reluctant, but said ok. Spicy margaritas often taste like a margarita with spice dumped as an afterthought. Again, you blew that theory away. I had to have everyone at the table taste the best margarita we have ever had. It tasted like the margarita had been born of a cross-pollinated agave-pepper plant. The seamless flavor was out of this world. I'm so grateful that Angel insisted I change my drink because we ordered 3 more. Angel also turned my husband onto an IPA that he loved. The unique ambience goes without saying. The designer of the space should win an award. We were fascinated by the diagonally, cut doors, wondering the story behind them. The people watching could have been our entire entertainment for the night. I've saved the best for last and that is our server, Angel. We were well taken care of from our first moment to our last. He gave us honest recommendations, made sure we were very happy, and clearly served your food and drinks with great pride. His name personality was delightful and we are still dreaming about everything the next day. Thank you so much.

First impression is that the space is stunning and so inviting. In the heart of the arts district it is located in a historic building and they leaveraged using a lot of the original infrastructure to make this spot a hidden gem amongst the other eateries in the neighborhood. The meal started off strong with attentive service and delicious starters. We got the popular cornbread, biscuits and trout dip. 5/5 for each item! Where the meal started to fall short came to our entrees. The service staff was kind but not very attentive. Tables who were sat after us were noticably getting their food faster. We waited closer to an hour for our entrees and had to send all of them back because they arrived cold. The manager became aware of the issue and they refired our entrees immediately but didn't do much else to address the significant lag in the service and cold delivery. Given it was a birthday brunch they did give us a complimentary dessert and ice cream but not much else to acknowledge the lack in service and quality especially given the value point of the meal. Overall, we had high expectations for Manuela but this particular brunch experience fell short. We aim to come back to try their dinner service in hopes for a better experience.
