    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!

    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.

    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.

    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!!

    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

    Chicken Cesar wrap
    Sarah S.

    I had to try faregrounds it was highly recommended by my friends. I had the chicken Cesar wrap and it was decent. The wrap itself was a great portion and tasted good but the miso sauce is kinda bland. We also tried their cream top and matcha and it was good. Service was fast despite the line it took us about 30-40 min to get our order. Ambiance is kinda small but they have indoor and outdoor seating.

    Blueberry Matcha Latte + mocha
    Isabella S.

    This place is a great easy brunch spot! I was craving a Caesar wrap specifically and it did not disappoint! I got the miso Caesar salad as a wrap with crispy chicken and it was delicious. The dressing on the side is so good too - I'm a big sauce girl and didn't have to add too much which is a great sign. Portion is big too (2 meals for me). I also got the blueberry matcha which was insane. I love matcha and this one definitely passed the test. I love how they had unique flavors too bc you can't find a blueberry matcha just anywhere! It wasn't too too busy when we went but not a ton of seating inside. It was also raining but there's some seating outside too which would be nice on a pretty day. Definitely would go back for the wrap + matcha

    I waited over 2 hours for this viral chicken Caesar wrap. So let's see if they're pretty good eh or ew. The wrap had good savory, umami, salty miso,Caesary flaves but was REALLY DRY. It was like 90% sad soggy dry breadcrumbs, 7% dry shredded chicken chicken, and 3% lettuce. It even costed extra to add the chicken. The tortilla was grilled but also pretty average. Hopefully just caught them on an off day cuz this was not worth the time, money, or hype. This wrap eugh. $4 chicken $15 wrap Paid $21

    Thai basil steak wrap and honey crunch wrap
    Mary K.

    This place for sure lives up to the hype! The miso caeser with the crispy chicken is very good! Definitely the best I've had in LA. The Thai basil steak wrap is soooo good I love the meat inside it's cooked perfectly and so flavorful. I wish it was available as a bowl because the rice was so good with it but it can be a bit too much pairing rice and tortilla together. The honey crunch wrap is okay it didn't have much flavor. it is skippable in my opinion. The banana cream matcha is soooo good. The banana cream tastes like you're eating actual bananas and I get extra matcha so it's not too sweet. The girls working are nice and they still give good customer service even when being overwhelmed with a lot of customers. Wait can be a little long during busy hours and it doesn't have a lot of seating but definitely worth trying!

    The coffee here is decent however you have to refinance the house to afford to drink coffee here on the regular basis. Crazy high prices, $2 extra per shot unreal. Service and ambiance is a 10 out of 10 and love that they don't use seed oils. That shouldn't make my coffee $10 per drink when you add an extra shot...

    Salted Maple Foam Latte
    Vi T.

    Stopped by for a quick caffeine fix due to my early flight to LA. Staff was lovely and helped me order because i cannot find this item - Salted Maple Foam Latte on their tablet. My drink came out quick and it was tasty, not a coffee girlie but I would say I really enjoy it. Store ambience is simple and aesthetic, you can definitely have some cute pictures taken here. It was a nice experience for my Thursday's morning in LA.

    If you work here you have the weekends off.

    I didn't like the Caesar wrap. It was like $17 and only came with lettuce. The miso Caesar dressing tasted kinda weird too

    Went in by accident for the first time. Had a cappuccino and a lox & cream cheese on a sourdough bread toasted. Delicious.

    Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday at afternoon tea and it was so much fun! I've been to a…read morefew afternoon tea spots throughout LA and The Peninsula just does it best. It is pricey (maybe the priciest out there) but every element of the experience is top tier and you get what you pay for. The sandwiches, scones, and pastries are actually high quality and delicious. I love the variety of the sandwiches with some twists and premium ingredients like caviar. The scones are my favorite and not dry at all, it's served with clotted cream, lemon curd, and a berry jam - absolutely delicious. There's a lot of tea choices to choose from that will cater to a variety of tastes. The ambiance is what sets this afternoon tea apart from the rest. There's a live harpist! The Living Room decor feels very posh, the plates and cups have pretty designs, and the set is served on a silver 3-tier stand. The service is also fantastic! They kept coming back to refill our tea. It was a great experience and great excuse to dress up when you're feeling fancy!

I love the vibe inside, it's so classy and the harp player just makes the whole experience perfect. Even using their valet service is very easy and not insanely expensive like the other places I've been to. I've also been to tea times all around the state and nothing has been close to The Living Room. Highly recommend this. The Belvedere also has an amazing Mother's day brunch.
