To start off, the location is pretty small so parking is very limited. Inside, it's a good size, good amount of tables and clean. The staff were extremely nice and welcoming. We ordered a breakfast burrito and it did not disappoint. It was extremely delicious and a good portion. Pricing is reasonable for the amount of food you get. We are definitely coming back with our family . 10/10.

I will say it's probably best to order off DoorDash as it's in a bad area on Spring Street. They are open late reliable and located inside of a corner store like New York style.

While we were in the area taking care of something, we decided to stop and grab something to eat…read moreand have some coffee. Honestly, I'm so glad we did. This place is absolutely amazing and definitely a must-try if you're in the area. Even if you're not, it's worth the trip. Everything we tried was delicious, and the espresso drinks were delightful-- not too sweet, just the right balance. We've actually been back three times since our first visit, and the experience has been amazing every time. The staff is super friendly and helpful, which makes the experience even better. The location might surprise you. This gem is tucked away in a somewhat random location, with no real storefront, in a small downtown-style corridor. The seating area is next door, which is also a little unexpected, but it's very cute and nicely done. The food has bold, explosive flavors and is truly something different. Everything we've tried has been delicious and memorable. Even though I live about 45 minutes away, I'll definitely be coming back with friends and family. This is one of those places I'm happy to make the drive for.

I never really thought much of cafe food anyway... until I had the Chimi Sando. Jesus Christ. That sandwich was sooooo good. Being 34 weeks pregnant now has completely thrown off my taste buds, and I've been telling Michaela, the co-owner, that I don't even recognize myself anymore. I don't know what I like, and I can't do the super sugary coffees I used to get from other places anymore. She recommended some beans and cold brews based on what I was looking for, and every single recommendation was so good. Michaela is just awesome. You can tell when someone genuinely cares about what they're creating and the experience they're giving people. She even surprised me and my husband with some complimentary tostadas, I honestly don't know exactly what was on them, but whatever it was...was soooo good! The whole experience was just so good, great coffee, great food, great people, and such a welcoming vibe. Ulew was already one of my favorite coffee spots, but now knowing the person behind it makes me love it even more. Anyway...I came for coffee and left realizing that they can continue to take my money.

I ordered the chili fries with extra pastrami and shredded cheddar, and it was absolutely loaded -- generous portions, bold flavors, and pure comfort food at its best. The pastrami was juicy and tender, piled high on top of crispy fries, and the chili had that rich, savory taste that keeps you eating even when you're already full. Nothing feels skimpy here. You definitely get your money's worth, and one order is more than enough to satisfy a big appetite. The atmosphere is casual and no-frills, exactly what you'd expect from a longtime local favorite. Service was fast and efficient, even late at night, and the staff kept everything moving smoothly. It's a great spot for a late dinner, post-work meal, or just when you're craving something hearty. If you're into classic pastrami, chili fries, or old-school diner vibes, The Hat is a must-visit. It's not fancy, but it's honest, filling, and consistently good -- the kind of place you'll keep coming back to. Highly recommended

Having grown up in the Midwest, I used to eat them often, but I have not had a cheesesteak since moving to LA. I decided to give this place a try. There was a small change of plans, with my wife wanting to also try other nearby food trucks. Instead of ordering a philly cheesesteak, I ended up ordering the Big Boy fries, which are fries topped with chili, beef, and pastrami. I realized they had philly cheesesteak fries after I ordered those, and in hindsight I wish I had gotten the philly cheesesteak fries. The Big Boy fries were still amazing though. Essentially, they are a lot like The Hat's pastrami chili cheese fries - chili, pastrami, and then the additional beef you would see in a philly cheese steak. Still pretty good, but did not satisfy my craving for philly cheese steak. I will have to come again to try their sandwich in the future.

Everything tasted fresh, the ingredients were high quality, and every bite was packed with flavor. It's one of those sandwiches that's simple, but done so well that you immediately know you'll be craving it again. If you're in Downtown LA and looking for a great sandwich spot, Ghost Sando is definitely worth checking out. 10/10. I'll definitely be back!

This place is a must visit! Philippe's is absolutely legendary!…read more They have kept their original location and they are still serving up the same classic French Dips they always have. I love the exterior look of the building with their iconic sign. When you step inside it feels like being transported to a simpler time. They have a couple fun phone booths against a side wall and an analog Photo Booth that --depending on the time of year-- will print strips that have the words "Go Dodgers" on it. Because Philippe's is also known to be a place that Dodgers fans can congregate. The line gets quite long, but the staff does their best to get people through as quickly as they can. There is plenty of seating that can be found on the ground floor, as well as upstairs. Although it has been disputed if they are indeed the originators of the French Dip, I must say that have not had a French Dip that has even come close to being as good as the one I had here. And I am a HUGE French Dip fan. You would think that dunking the roll in the au jus would make it just taste soggy, but instead the bread holds up and the au jus packs it with great flavor. Last thing--order it with the pickled egg! Thank me later.

The outdoor patio feels like you accidentally wandered into a breezy corner of the French Quarter. Warm lights, casual seating, and that "kick back and stay awhile" energy. Ordering through the app and picking up at the window makes you feel like you're part of a secret club, the kind where the password is "extra napkins, please." * Chicken Po' Boy, WOW...This thing is stacked. Crispy chicken, tangy sauce, and bread that holds everything together like it's doing core workouts. It's messy in the best way, the kind of sandwich that demands respect and maybe a bib. * Fully Loaded Cajun Tots, These tots don't play around. They show up dressed to impress, cheese, toppings, flavor, the whole squad. It's basically a tiny potato block party, and you're invited. * Beignets, very delicious, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and dusted with enough powdered sugar to make you question your laundry choices. One bite and suddenly you're hearing jazz horns in the distance. Their coffee game....Dangerously good. My boogie coffee drink - latter came out smooth, sweet, and caffeinated enough to make me consider running around the block a few times. It's the kind of drink that makes you shimmy in your seat and say, "Yeah... life is good." This place nails the New Orleans vibe without trying too hard. Great food, fun energy, and a patio that makes you forget you're in LA traffic territory. Come hungry, come curious, and definitely come ready for powdered sugar on your shirt. Miguel C.

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. We went with the crispy chicken sliders and loaded Cajun tots and they were both very flavourful and delicious. 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.
