    Matcha Chai Latte and a mocha
    Moanii Y.

    BEST TURKEY SANDWICH OF MY LIFEEEE! The fresh house made ciabatta? delicious, the thick tender cuts of turkey? amazing, that carmalized onion bacon jam!? S tier! Just a 11/10 brunch moment. Also a cute establishment with so many drink and eat options that it was honestly hard to decide. I also got a matcha chai and YUM. Food came out quick and fresh. It was all together a great experience. I'll never forget that sandwich.

    THIS PLACE RIGHT HERE!!! All surrounding brunch spots... meet your match. This family-owned gem is about to take over the downtown brunch scene. My family and I stopped in on a Saturday around 10 a.m. The place was already packed with a line out the door, but don't let that scare you. The wait moved fast, and the staff ran that dining room like a well-oiled machine while somehow making you feel like you were a guest in their home. You order at the front, grab your number, then impatiently wait for greatness. Right away, the baristas were brewing, shaking, and stirring up some of the best drinks I've had in a long time. Matcha, mochas... Starbucks could NEVER. I ordered the banana strawberry matcha and an iced mocha. While I was at the counter, I obviously had to grab pastries because... self-control wasn't invited. The display alone had me ready to order 14 of 'em. I went with the tiramisu cookie, guava croissant, and strawberry cream croissant. Now for the main event. There were four of us, so naturally we ordered enough food for a small village. Savory pancakes, a bulgogi breakfast burrito with fries, steak and eggs, another breakfast burrito, and the Thai pizza. Yep. We came to eat. While we waited, I took in the atmosphere. The entire place felt warm and inviting. Sunlight poured through the windows, giving it the feeling of eating breakfast on your family's back patio. Just laughter, clinking forks, happy conversations, and those little "mmm" moments happening at every table. That's always a good sign. The Thai pizza hit the table first. Fresh out of the oven and straight to Flavor Town. The crust had to be handmade because there was no way something that good came from a freezer. The basil, sausage, and everything working together made this anything but your average pizza. It was different--in the best way possible. Five minutes later... Gone. Next up were the savory pancakes. At first glance, they looked simple. Then I took a bite. That little stack of fluffy pancakes topped with berry butter didn't even need syrup. THANK YOU for understanding that pancakes don't need to cover an entire plate to be memorable. These were soft, flavorful, perfectly sweet, and somehow disappeared before I could fully appreciate everything else on the plate. Speaking of everything else... The steamed eggs were light and fluffy. The hash browns? Listen... Whatever they're doing to those potatoes back there needs to be studied. They had the perfect golden crunch with this buttery goodness that made me question every hash brown I've ever eaten. Fried in beef tallow? Magic? I don't know. I just know I wanted another order immediately. The bacon deserved its own shoutout too. Fresh, crispy, and full of flavor--not bacon that was cooked at 5 a.m. and has been sitting around waiting for someone's Grand Slam order. This bacon had integrity. Then came the steak and eggs. The steak was tender, juicy, and seasoned perfectly. I had absolutely no interest in sharing. But somehow the potatoes still managed to steal part of the spotlight. Again... Those potatoes. Give me 14 of those babies to go. The breakfast burritos were packed with flavor, but those crispy potatoes inside gave them the texture that took them from good to unforgettable. And that green aioli? Bottle that stuff up. Immediately. This place just gets it. They understand that quality matters. Every ingredient tasted intentional, every dish felt like someone actually cared before it hit the table. Too many restaurants are cutting corners these days, and I will happily support businesses that refuse to compromise. Worth every penny. This is hands down one of the best brunch spots I've been to in a long time, and I already can't wait to come back. Do yourself a favor and go. Just don't blame me when there's a line.

    Lazy Dough is this interesting café located on fourth Street in the LBC. The design of this establishment is very nice. They have very nice interior seating, as well as a very nice outdoor patio space. The way this place works is that you go inside and order what you want. You can do this is one of two ways. They have a digital ordering station, if that's your preference. Or, you can place your order with the staff member at the front counter. Your choice. In terms of the food, it's all very interesting. They have some pretty nice choices. What they offer is kind of unique takes on a traditional Americana and beyond. The main thing about this restaurant to keep in mind is that they have a very extensive drink list. Whether you want lattes, cappuccinos, chais they have a lot of choices. I mean, really a lot of choices! The only downside to this café, if you want to call it that, is that this is a population location. From this, if there are a lot of people in front of you, having put in their order, you may have to wait awhile to get your meal. Overall, this a nice café that offers some good food and a lot drinks.

    Lazy Dough is a gem. Food quality & taste: 5 stars Value: 5 stars Service & ambiance: 5 stars We tried the sweet pancakes, eggs benedict croissant, and the steak scramble. Each was perfect. The sliced/cubed steak had a hint of sweetness and was tender. If you're picky about eggs benedict, you'll appreciate this place. The coconut cream that accompanied the pancakes is addictive. The service was great. Looking forward to returning to try different things on the menu. I bookmarked Lazy Dough as a place to bring friends and family.

    It was so delicious! OMG! PHENOMENAL! I would 100% come back, similar vibes to Salty Horse, Costa Mesa. Very cute and gay friendly! Coming back for my birthday.

    Really amazing vibe parking is pretty awful though unless I missed a parking lot somewhere. Food and drinks are amazing and unique! I would def recommend if you're a local or anywhere in LA it's just really unique and this is probably going to blow up in the future

    We found this spot on instagram and had to try out yet another great restaraunt on fourth street. What got me was the breakfast burritos that they served, and thats what i maintained my focus on for the morning. Its a very nicely decorated place and there is a lot of seating inside and some out on the patio. They had a lot of pastry made and their coffee options were wide. Since i was getting the burrito, my wife tried out the steak and eggs because the eggs were prepared sunny side up. Her skillet had mushrooms and onions which flavored the meat even more. Her potatoes were all right. The ones in my chorizo breakfast burrito were better as hash browns, and the Chimichurri sauce went well with every bite i took. We decided to try out the strawberry croissant that had custard and slices of the fruit inside. Every bite was fantastic in that pastry and i cant wait to have it again at my next visit. They definitely get busy on a weekend so come early and enjoy whatever calls to your hearts and minds.

    Absolutely stellar popcorn chicken curry pizza with a zesty khao soi vibe! We popped into this cafe and were pleasantly surprised by the creative/unique and extensive menu - each item is intentional and trendy! We got the blueberry matcha and pina colada matcha which tasted so flavorful. Their berries croissant French toast was not only beautifully presented, but a unique take on a classic French toast dish. Seems like this spot is family-run, and I noticed that workers were speedy and thoughtful with their service.

    Came here for a birthday brunch before a couple activities in Long Beach and this spot didn't disappoint! I absolutely loved the vibe of the place. You order at the front and you take your table stand with the number and they bring your order out to you. They have plenty of seating indoor and outdoor but the parking situation is limited but there's street parking all around. They make all of their pastries in house daily and i definitely recommend trying something that's made in-house I ordered the Beef Bulgogi Burrito and a Banana Matcha. My date ordered the Eggs Benedict Croissant Sandwich and a Strawberry Matcha. Eggs Benedict Croissant sandwich 5/5: The croissant was very flaky and light, you can tell it's made in-house with how it wasn't tough like some croissants out there. Swapped the Canadian bacon with regular bacon and it was fire. The eggs Benedict idea inside of a sandwich was new to me and I'd definitely order it again. Just be careful with the yolk, it might just explode on you lol Bulgogi Burrito 4.5/5 The only thing I'd change about it is the way they roll it, it affected the ratio of egg to tater tots and meat per bite. Other than that, the actual ratio of ingredients was great, the mango salsa they give on the side is fire, and the Aji sauce (tastes like the Peruvian green sauce) was ABSOLUTELY FIRE I had to get extra sauce because I used it on literally every bite. Strawberry matcha 5/5 This was my pick, the balance of matcha to strawberry was great, definitely would recommend this Banana Matcha 4/5 This was a great pick as well but I feel that the banana overpowered the matcha

    Steak & Egg Skillet

    I have visited this place several times, and it is always a great experience. The staff works incredibly hard and the person I assume is the owner is there alongside his staff. They offer both a traditional register and a self-service kiosk, which is convenient if you prefer placing your order on your own. There is plenty of seating available, both indoors and outdoors, making it a comfortable place to dine regardless of how busy it gets. The food has been consistently tasty every time I have visited. I would especially recommend trying the strawberry matcha and the egg skillet. Both are solid choices and worth ordering.

    Front entry to exit, I had a great experience here. You order in front take a number and seat yourself. I observed a dedicated barista making the drinks and making match the traditional way with a bamboo wisk and personality order.I loved this! The food comes out pretty fast with minimal wait time. The berry pancakes had a delicious berry puree and sweet whipping on top. The pancakes combo also had a delicious berry butter and was the only dish that had eggs, protein and potatoes. The only ding would be to not use microwaved eggs. The eggs seemed like they were not cooked fresh. It did not take away from meal. The ambiance was super chill with both indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is a headache. Because it's located in a residential area. Bring patience and just know it's worth it.

    Avocado toast
    Valerie G.

    Very welcoming. The garlic bread had this sweet touch and I absolutely loved it. Avocado toast was the star of the show though- oh but don't get me started on the tiramisu cookie! Such deliciousness! I'd definitely come back. The layout is pretty spacious.

    Açaí bowl
    Jessica C.

    Ok, let me just start off by saying, one of the best açaí bowls I have ever had!!! So much good stuff in it! I would go back just for that. Place gets pretty packed so just be prepared. All the employees were very helpful though, the menu is good and they have a ton of fun bakery type treats and new drinks all the time. Looking in it doesn't look like much, but it is pretty cute inside! Definitely a good stop in LB!

Not a super huge fan of French cuisine; however, the menu looked good and mostly reasonable prices. Restaurant is super cute with indoor/outdoor seating. We started off with a bottle of cab (41.00, ouch)! It was noted as a different brand on their menu and they came with a bottle of Josh Cellars which isn't a bad table wine but about 3 times the price! We ended up ordering the fondue for the app (24.00) which comes with bite size pieces of bread and diced apples. It was ok, a little too runny and had an interesting hint of beer flavor. Next up we both ordered the brie & prosciutto sandwich which came with a side of au gratin and greens. The sandwich was excellent but the potatoes were cold. We ended our meal sharing creme brulee for dessert. It was good but also served cold. Total bill incl tip: 163.00 bucks (double ouch)! Overall, meal and service was good, but I would forego the wine on a future visit as it was way overpriced for the brand we got as well as the cheese fondue. Will definitely be back though. Very comfy and charming atmosphere.

The menu has a ton of really detailed options, each drink with its own depth. The menu changes seasonally but what doesn't change is the smoked old fashioned - a must-order. They smoke your drink in a glass container using applewood chips; it's quite a show and it also does make the drink much more enjoyable. Ask the bartender and they can also help guide you to a drink - I've done it a couple of times and always pleasantly surprised. Next up, the food! The hummus was very flavorful and paired with an amazing fluffy pita bread. The truffle fries were solid but the plate was HUGE, definitely needs a friend to share. The Nashville wings are the star of the show. I cannot stress this enough, this is worth a DRIVE for. The seasoning really does remind you of Howlin' Rays (the highest compliment) and the chicken is extremely crispy yet insanely juicy. The pickles and ranch that it comes with pairs so well. Do note that they are tossing it in pork fat, which enhances the depth but also makes it a little greasy at the end. I also wished they'd warn you this and offer to order it without it; especially for those who don't eat pork or for those trying to cut some calories. There's a happy hour menu too!!! So you can get drinks and food even cheaper. I cannot stop thinking about this place. It's such a sleeper. Head to Midnight Oil after a visit to continue your night.

I eventually ordered the Crispy Shrimp & Calamari to eat as my main (I was dining alone). I had recently had a very notable version of the same dish at a Canopy by Hilton in Washington DC, and unfortunately, this one did not measure up. The breading was average and the sweet chili aioli was poor. I asked for ranch instead, which was an improvement but still not great. The portion itself was fine. Service was solid and friendly! I'd rate the staff around a 4. Based on the food I had, the kitchen lands closer to a 2.5 to 3. Fine if you're already in the hotel and want something casual, but not an amazing choice for the fried seafood.
