    Wanted something sweet but not heavy and I came across Labanz Cafe on Yelp ~ I ordered a Satalana Dubai Style + Strawberries and a Crepanita, also Dubai Style + Strawberries. Both of these were delicious and not overly sweet at all. The textures in the milky bread and custard Satalana were unique and added interesting layers along with the crunchy kataifi. The crepe had a nice bite and a slightly chewy texture. Toppings were abundant on both desserts, and the large sizes were a decent amount to share between 2 people. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the dishes came out quicker than I anticipated. The store front is well-kept and there are plenty of seats inside and out. Parking in the lot here was free and there were a quite few spaces open, on a Monday afternoon. V convenient overall - I recommend trying out Labanz if you're craving any Middle Eastern treats. These hiiittttt!

    The ice cream was really good, especially the gum-flavored gelato--that was a standout! The tres leches with the crispy topping and pistachios was also delicious and had a great texture. Overall, there were some really tasty desserts, and I'd definitely come back to try more!

    i've never had middle eastern dessert before so it was so great to try labanz for the first time! they had a big parking lot, and i was immediately met with enthusiasm and such welcoming service by the staff. they have a few locations around socal. the menu has a lot of variety for different options to choose from like crepes, waffles, ice cream, coffees, and more! ashtotaz - fluffy cake with cream on top and kinder pieces! i love kinder chocolate. it created a good crunch with the soft cake satalana - this is a layered half biscoff & half pistachio dessert, and it was definitely my favorite one. i loved the combo of these two flavors together, and the biscoff crumbs were delicious kusharita - creamy rice pudding with mango & caramel! the fruit added a great fresh taste to the sweet dessert the atmosphere of the shop was cutesy with the blue and white theme they had. i would highly recommend if you're in the mood for a late night dessert!

    Salma helped us out and was so sweet! Everything we tried was really good and surprisingly not overly sweet. She gave us a few different ice cream options and even let us get one on the side. Great ambiance, and I love that they're open late on the weekends. Such a perfect end of the night treat! Definately will be back!!!

    Been wanting to try this place ever since I saw the TikTok videos! Happy they opened a location in the valley. The desserts are absolutely superb!! Tried the Satalana with Dubai style toppings. It melted in my mouth! Just the perfect amount of sweetness and so moist! Neve had anything like this! Also had the mango mousse! Wow! Absolutely delicious! Can't wait to come back and try more. So much to choose from! We didn't even get to try the drinks! Also, the workers were so sweet and welcoming!

    Amazing service and even better desserts! As a big fan of Dubai chocolate desserts, I really enjoyed all of the base options they had and the ability to Dubai chocolate-ify all of them. Highly recommend the kusharita and labanita!! I also ordered a biscoff coffee but wasn't my fave so I'd skip on that next time. Ambiance was great as they even had the World Cup games playing! Stop by if you have a big sweet tooth like me :)

    My wife and I visited Labanz for the first time on Saturday, and we had a wonderful experience! The desserts were absolutely delicious, and we'll definitely be coming back for more. A special thank you to Daniel and Limby for providing outstanding customer service. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for amazing desserts and excellent customer service, I highly recommend this place. We can't wait to visit again!

    I stumbled across Labanz on Instagram and literally got in my car that second to go try it. I'm so glad I did! The customer service was great from the moment we walked in, and everything we ordered was delicious. We tried the Satalana, the Kusharita, and the Dubai Chocolate Waffle, and every dessert was amazing. You can tell they put a lot of care into both the presentation and the flavors. I would 100% come back and can't wait to try more of the menu. If you've been thinking about checking this place out, definitely do it! Excuse the pictures, I started eating before I could even snap a photo.

    Labanz just opened their newest location in Tarzana, adding to their Anaheim and Fullerton locations, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're a dessert lover. Their menu has a tons of options, from milk cakes and cream cakes to waffles, crepes, ice cream, specialty coffees, and drinks. I honestly couldn't figure out what to order. The owner also told me they'll be opening at 7 a.m. starting next week to serve breakfast and coffee, so I'll definitely be back to check that out. We tried the Biscoff Ashtouta (milk cake), which was soft and so moist. We also had the Dubai style Satalana (cream cake), which was rich, creamy, and topped with pistachio and crispy kunafa. For drinks, we ordered the blue ocean mojito and a Biscoff iced latte, both of which paired perfectly with the desserts. We couldn't leave without trying the Farawalita,fresh strawberries topped with Dubai chocolate and it definitely lived up to the hype. The café itself is clean, spacious, and has a great atmosphere for hanging out with friends or family. Daniel, one of the employees, was incredibly friendly and helpful. If it's your first time and you're not sure what to order, definitely ask him for recommendations!

    My family and I have already been to Labanz twice this week, and that says it all! Their middle eastern desserts are absolutely delicious. We couldn't even wait long enough to take a picture of the Satalana or the Kusharita before digging in they were that good! My son completely devoured the Dubai style Crepeanita and is already asking when we can go back. Not only is the food incredible, but the staff is so kind and welcoming, and they're very generous with their portions. It's rare to find a place that delivers both amazing quality and such great service. We will absolutely be back often and can't wait to try even more of the menu. Highly recommend!

    The dessert options are unique and delicious. The service is super warm and friendly and the energy is positive. The person behind the counter Limby was very accommodating and made us feel welcome. The ambiance is modern and relaxed. Good vibes and a unique concept. Next time I want to try the crapes and maybe even the waffle.

    Salma helped us out tonight she had great energy and recommendations! We had her very special pistachio latte, it was amazing. She even helped walk us through the menu cause we were overwhelmed with all the delicious choices, and she did not hesitate to do so! We will be returning customers for the great menu and service!

    Limby took great care of us! The variety of sweets along with the coffee choices were spectacular. We enjoyed the treats and will be coming back for more!

I've tried the Waffles Benedict, Red Velvet Waffle, and the Matcha Waffle, which were all fantastic. The Waffles Benedict, which came with ham and poached eggs, was my personal favorite (the eggs were the perfect runniness; compliments to the chef!). There is also plenty of seating including chairs and booth options, so larger parties, families with kids, or couples can have a comfortable place to dine. As for the prices, the food ranges within the $20s range (any extra add-ons like eggs, ham, etc. cost a few dollars more). I would say this is pretty typical for an LA restaurant, although it may come off as a bit "pricey" for non-locals or travelers. However, they do offer a very diverse menu, so there is definitely something that everyone could enjoy.

    We were in the area and came across this lovely place. The server, Kat, was very personable and…read moreattentive and made sure we were taken care of shortly after sitting down. We reviewed what others had recommended prior to ordering and decided on the Texas Style Chicken and Waffles along with the Combo Burrito (with bacon and Polish sausage). Both were a winner! And to drink we enjoyed a Lavender Iced Latte and a French Vanilla Iced Latte...both also spot on! The reason I deducted a star and only gave 4 stars instead of 5 and this is a BIG pet peeve of mine that I'm noticing more restaurants doing is setting their mobile credit card machines to include tax on tips! The tip % should ALWAYS be on the subtotal however in these restaurants' desire to make life more "convenient" with the pre-set Tip options (e.g 18%, 20%, 22%), they are knowingly setting their machines to include the tax in hopes that most people likely won't catch it. I'm usually good at calculating it myself but in my haste today, simply hit the default 20% button and only realized when I got home and doubled checked the bill. Also, I don't feel they should charge more for a non-dairy milk alternative as a lot of folks have milk allergies like myself...even most of the other coffee houses don't charge for milk alternatives anymore. At an already pricey $8.49 and $7.49 for these two lattes, it's unnecessary to gouge another $0.75 for Oatmilk. Hopefully the owner sees this and will consider adjusting both.

    My family and I were first-time visitors to this extremely popular and busy restaurant…read more By the end of our meal, we became fans. Located in the Encino Town Center, I am so happy that my daughter recommended this restaurant. The interior of the restaurant is large, with numerous well-stocked tables and many more tables located outside for patio dining. There also appeared to be a mid-sized banquet room off to one side, behind closed doors, which several guests were exiting to use the restrooms. The entire staff was very friendly, hard-working, and attentive to each of their assigned tables. The specialty here is the waffles; however, their menu is HUGE!!! It offers guests a variety of other food options, including pancakes, salads, omelets, crepes, and more. My family and I ordered Nutella crepes, peach waffles, frittata, and seasoned potatoes. Each item was DELICIOUS, fresh, and well prepared. We plan to return here soon to try other great-sounding options on the menu. This was a very positive dining experience.
