    Finally gave the viral Chicken Caesar Wrap a try, and for once the internet didn't overhype it. The chicken was perfectly cooked--juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor. Every bite had the perfect balance of fresh romaine, creamy Caesar dressing, shaved parmesan, and just the right amount of crunch. The wrap stayed crisp without getting soggy, and the portion was surprisingly filling. This is one of those rare viral foods that actually deserves the attention. If you've been debating whether it's worth the hype, the answer is absolutely yes. I'll definitely be back for another.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Vivien H.

    A very solid place for breakfast and matcha! I've been to faregrounds twice now and the service is always excellent, everyone who works there is so sweet and patient. I got the breakfast burrito with added bacon and it was pretty good (though I was starving so my review might be a little skewed lol). It's a good size and the filling is generous. Love that they include one dipping sauce for free, no upcharge! I got the cilantro crema and it was the perfect addition. My only complaint is I wish there were more textures in the burrito, it kind of turns into mush after a few bites. Wish the potatoes were crispier! But overall still really delicious. Drink-wise I got a matcha americano the first time and a matcha blueberry the second time. The matcha blueberry was so good, their homemade blueberry sauce isn't too sweet which I appreciated. Overall everything was solid and it's a great spot if you want breakfast that doesn't completely break the bank.

    Salted Vanilla Foam Latte
    Alex J.

    I have been bamboozled by yet another breakfast burrito. I stopped by for a short rib breakfast burrito as the menu description made it sound really interesting and somewhat unique compared to the majority of those found throughout LA. The menu says this burrito comes with "eggs, short rib, crispy potatoes, fontina, pickled red onions, and gochujang aioli". The cashier also asked me what sauce I wanted which I thought was odd since the burrito already comes with the gochujang aioli, but she offered a cilantro, chipotle mayo, and "hot sauce". I went for the cilantro sauce getting confused and not thinking to ask about the gochujang. I also later found out the "hot sauce" is a calabrian hot sauce and not just any old "hot sauce". If that was mentioned I probably would've tried that but how many people think to ask what kind of "hot sauce" is used when it's not specified to begin with? The cross section looked decent but definitely so little short rib compared to the other photos and tik tok videos I've seen. Naive me should've known these were paid influencers getting special treatment, so obviously they're getting more short rib. The short rib itself had decent flavor but it was just so dry. The potatoes were not crispy at all and more like homestyle potatoes, soft. What really made things worse was the missing gochujang aioli and fontina cheese. There definitely was not any of it in here and I'm kicking myself for not bringing it up to the staff but honestly, it's something that shouldn't be forgotten to begin with. The cilantro sauce was basically sludge and very mild in flavor so it didn't elevate the burrito flavor much. To drink I tried the recommended Salted vanilla foam latte, although not too sweet, it didn't have much flavor. I couldn't help but notice the lack of cleaning too. I sat for almost an hour (9:30-10:18) before I saw anyone clean a table while many people had left tables dirty. Even when I sat at the first table and moved to a second table, I had to clean up spilled sauce, sticky residue, and wet areas on my tables to not dirty my own arms or phone. The space isn't very cozy and the interior tables are crammed together. I asked the cashier if the wi-fi works fine outside and she said the wi-fi "isn't very good and pretty spotty, it usually doesn't work outside". I was hoping to initially try their caesar wrap and ended up here for breakfast so I tried that and was disappointed but now I don't have plans to return for anything else.

    This review is for drinks only. I tried the salted maple iced latte and it lives rent free in my head. I dream of this and need to stop by whenever I'm in the area. Perfectly sweet, perfectly creamy, perfectly coffee-ey. SALTED MAPLE LATTE, you'll thank me later.

    Banana matcha
    Natalia H.

    This is one of best banana matcha in the area! It's very hard to find banana matcha which tastes good and not artificial or without taste. So happy I found this place. The sandwiches were fantastic, waited about 30 min for them because place was very busy but I didn't mind. The only thing is they gave me regular chicken to the wrap instead the crispy one I ordered. Taste of everything was fantastic, I'd recommend!

    Stopped there for a quick coffee and bite, very friendly staff and fast service. The cafe itself is clean and cozy. The line wasnt that long. Very well made and delicious burrito, and loved my iced latte. The parking can be challenging there if you are driving.

    Small intimate breakfast/brunch/lunch spot tucked away in BH. Food was delicious but their matcha was next level. Why I am trying this now is beyond me. 1. Short rib breakfast burrito: braised short rib, scrambled eggs, hash, pickled onions-game changer, and Gochujang aioli all wrapped up in a toasty flour wrap. Choice of sauces but honestly can go easily without the dipping sauces. Chose the cilantro one and no regrets here. 1000% recommend 2. Açaí bowl:balanced my salty with a cold and sweet flavor. This açaí bowl was just divine with its icy cold açaí base, almond granola, fresh banana slices and blueberries all drizzled with coconut bites and honey. Fantastic. Also highly highly recommend 3. Rose matcha: washed everything down with rose foam matcha. Excellent as well. The rose aroma was delicious. Overall 1000% recommend. Coming back to try the lunch menu.

    Breakfast Steak Burrito
    Mary A.

    I stopped by around opening time on a Thursday, and it was already pretty busy, which was a good sign. I ordered the Breakfast Steak Burrito and the Pistachio Cream Matcha. The burrito is definitely on the pricier side, especially with the added protein, but the portion is huge and very filling. They weren't skimpy with the ingredients, the filling ratios were well-balanced, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The Pistachio Cream Matcha was definitely on the sweeter side, but it had a great pistachio flavor that I really enjoyed. The staff was friendly, and the service was quick despite how busy it was. Parking was also surprisingly easy. There's a garage on N. Bedford Dr., across from Jon & Vinny's, that offers free parking for the first two hours before 6 PM, and it's only about a 2-minute walk to the shop. Overall, I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu items!

    Short Rib Wrap, Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap, Tiramisu Latte
    Christian ..

    Food was excellent, purchased a short rib and chicken Ceaser wrap, the cilantro dressing was beyond delicious ! Service was awesome, gentleman was helpful and made great recommendations, the place itself was a vibe, modern chill and welcoming. Also got a Tiramisu late with coconut milk, top tier!

    Jacklyn D.

    I am so amazed at how good this place actually is. Although it is on the pricey side, the wraps and sandwiches are actually gigantic! Yes, indeed, the hype for that caesar wrap is worth it. You must go and try it with the crispy chicken. They already put enough dressing in the wrap itself, but they also include a small side of it too. I also tried the favorited spicy don, which was enough for 2 people as well. The cheese was melted perfectly onto the chicken cutlet and the perfect amount of heat is in the vodka sauce. It also came with a side of chipotle sauce and extra vodka sauce which was hot in it's container. My friend tried their banana matcha and rates it a 5/5 and I tried the tiramisu latte which I would rate a 4/5. You can taste the quality in their food and drinks. Luckily, upon my arrival, the line was not long, but as I was sitting outside enjoying my food, the line began to grow. Honestly, please check this place out. I will be back soon!!

    Experience (4/5 stars): *Food: delicious caesar chicken salad wrap! crispy chicken with a good portion. *Price: ~$20 Overall, a lil pricey given the location but would recommend giving it a try!

    We came in for breakfast at 9:13 AM and there is already a line. They're offering a free coffee with an entrée, but they don't really have anything gluten-free other than an açai bowl. At least I get a free matcha! The employees are super friendly but they don't know what pastries are gf. 20 minutes later...at least they have free Wi-Fi but it doesn't really work. Outdoor seating is limited.

    Place was busy at 1030am on a Friday but things moved fast and got the order in 10 minutes Breakfast bowl. Good variety. 4.5/5 Short rib burrito breakfast. Maybe too much meat for me in the morning. But it was good. 4.5/5

I ordered the Toscana which came with Prosciutto, basil almond pesto, stracciatella cheese, tomatoes, balsamic vinegar and olive oil and my cousin ordered the Tacchino which had House-made roasted turkey, avocado aioll, stracciatella cheese, toasted almonds, tomatoes, baby arugula with no crispy onions. The ingredients are fresh and high quality, down to the olive oil. The combination of flavors is perfection. I'm excited to keep trying their sandwiches.

It was VERY close! The bread is excellent and the cheese and meat are clearly selected with INCREDIBLE intention. The only problem is that the bread is huge and has a taste unto itself that is really good! Why a problem? Because the cheese was not sharp enough to penetrate the bread flavor and the meat was not deep enough to do the same. This was a (delicious) bread first sandwich. I like my sandwiches to be ingredient forward-facing. This is a me thing. You may absolutely adore this place. My friends got the tuna and I wish I had got that. So fresh and light. With the price, I didn't feel like asking for a "re-do," but I chose wrong haha I will try this place again and get something with less bread dominance. This is still 9.2/10 sandwich....I just happen to eat 30+ sandwiches at restaurants every year. The pasta? Super good! There were 4 of us so I stole some bites. Definitely try if you aren't use to AUTHENTIC European sandwiches. You're in for a treat.

There's outdoor seating but it's too busy of a street for me to enjoy being out there. Also inside has AC. It's so fucking hot in LA right now that this sandwich might actually save your life. The handmade burrata makes the whole thing super refreshing. I did end up taking out some of the arugula and pistachios because it started feeling like a little too much was going on in there, but after that it was exactly what I wanted. So yeah, during this heat, if you can find parking--or for some reason you're walking around outside in this shit--stop and get a refreshing sandwich.
