    Such a solid spot for breakfast, coffee or lunch in Toluca Lake. The inside of the restaurant is spacious and while it's casual, it feels more elevated than your average breakfast spot. Plenty of outlets if you want to come by with your laptop! I usually come on weekdays and it's not super busy. You order at the counter and then they bring your food out to you. I love their coffee drinks and I've never had a meal here I didn't like. Most recently I had the breakfast hash and it was delicious! It came with salad and toast so it was a pretty big meal. They have lots of healthy salad options for the health conscious folks and pastries for those with a sweet tooth! It's a great place to take people for a variety of menu options. Service was great and all of the tables were extremely clean. If you don't mind the self serve vibe, you've got to check it out!

    Garlic shrimp appetizer
    Brenda A.

    I didn't see a lot of dinner reviews so I thought I'd try it. We made a reservation on Resy but it wasn't necessary there was plenty of seating available. It's cute and has a nice wine bar, open seating area with hard floors means it can get loud when full. The service was pretty good, they have happy hour daily for wine and beer and select food. What we ordered: appetizer was garlic shrimp which was a bit disappointing with six small shrimp in some sauce. Good flavor but it was just ok. Next came our entrees which were truffle cavetteli pasta and the wild lemon glaze halibut. Both of these options were excellent! The halibut had great flavor and a good portion. We also had dessert of warm butter cake and an affogado coffee. One thing to point out is they have table service during dinner. It is definitely worth venturing out to if you're in the neighborhood, a chill vibe with fresh food.

    "Carnivore" Wood fired Pizza
    John E.

    My family and I decided to stop by Sweetsalt in a Sunday evening. Unbeknownst to us, after a certain time (dinner?) it turns into a sit down restaurant with table service rather than the order at the counter and take your number and sit version we had experienced previously. The mood is somewhere between romantic and chic in the evening. We ordered an assortment of items including hamburgers but this the woodfired pizza stood out. I would be back just for that, maybe joined with a appetizer or two and a glass of wine. Cheers.

    In my ongoing quest to canvass all of Toluca Lake for food reviews, I tried Sweetsalt again for lunch yesterday. This is my third time there, I went once for breakfast and once for a lunch meeting. Service is fine. 4/5. You order up front and they bring the food to you. I have found both times I've went that the cashiers were busy doing something so even though there was no line I had to wait about 5 min for service. Not the biggest deal. Food usually comes prompt. Atmosphere 3/5. This place looks really pretty on the inside. Has some outdoor seating on riverside. It's sorta elevated fast casual. Feels like a kit store made from left over parts from old mimis restaurants. My only real issue is its high ceilings. It gets very loud fast. This seems to be a trend with places these days, but I prefer to hear the person I am dining with. Food 3/5. It's just... ok. I had a breakfast once and it was fine. Had a salad once and it was fine. Yesterday I ordered their Brussel and kale tacos with double chicken (which totaled like almost 30 bucks!). My partner had a caprese with chicken and it was super dry! Portion sizes are good. Coffee is also just ok. Lots of better options nearby. So the food is... fine. But so so expensive. Again it's like, am I getting my money's worth? I can go to TJs down the street, get about 20 meals that taste better, go home and heat them up. Not sure if it's me or restaurants in general in these times but I'm just not finding the quality to be worth the cost. Go here for a quick breakfast or brunch or maybe a meeting. Maybe just stay home or make a nice picnic lunch or something if you're looking for dining with intent.

    I've been meaning to stop by for months. This was a unique yet lovely experience. Stand on line to place/pay for my order. Grabbed my number, took a few steps where I cured my coffee, needed additional napkins and my hot sauce. Next thing I know, this lovely plate was presented. Thanks to Hannah who was very helpful to me, while I decided my breakfast. I so enjoyed my meal. There is parking in the back, as well as street parking. Sweetsalt offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was enjoyable.

    Side Salad
    Chris S.

    First time trying. We were a bit confused as the host desk had a sign saying to seat yourself. We finally figured out it was a stand in line at the counter to order place. We placed our order. My wife had the Steak and Blue on baguette. I got the Shortrib sandwich with fries. We both really enjoyed the sandwiches. The surprise was how good their Japanese Lager was. I really enjoyed it. The service was great and the relaxed atmosphere made it a great place to just hang out. We are definitely coming again.

    Yummy mushroom truffle pizza!
    Laura M.

    Yummy mushroom truffle pizza!!! We also got the rigatoni pasta, which was pretty good. I wouldn't get it again though. And the chicken salad with almonds, which was pretty good after adding goat cheese to it. I think I'll stick with pizza next time.

    Tomato Soup. W/ Baguette

    The food taste great but sometimes can come out a bit cold. They are kinda slow when serving food but they have many orders to prepare! Very polite people & and clean space :)

    Grilled cheese sandwich with lettuce ( salad?)
    Udo M.

    The place looks nice. Free parking behind the building. Luckily because we had major problems finding parking on the street on a Saturday afternoon. Staff seem friendly. We decided to sit outside in front by the street. It wasn't too noisy. My spouse ordered a lentil/vegetable soup. He let me try it. I had to agree with him. Very watery in my opinion but also extremely tasteless. Absolutely nothing to write home about. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and an orange juice. It wasn't bad. But it came with some greens. I assumed it was a side salad. But either they forgot the dressing or they don't like to share much of it. I tasted just plane green lettuce. Nothing else. After we got the food. No one ever came out to check on the us. So I never had a chance to ask for anything anyway. Well, it was worth a try. I won't say this place is horrible but not for us.

    Fig & Prosciutto sandwich, Honey Lavender Matcha
    Audrey F.

    Very fast service, has some free parking in the back, lots of seating in a stylish dining area, and a fairly large menu of sandwiches and salads. You order at a cashier and then they bring the food to you in less than 5 minutes. The fig and prosciutto sandwich was pretty good and I enjoyed the honey lavender matcha latte which had a fairly prominent lavender flavor. Sandwich could've been bigger or a bit more filling given that between the drink, sandwich, tip, and tax, my meal cost over $33. Overall, I did enjoy this spot but you're definitely paying for the atmosphere.

    Breakfast Sandwich
    Nick N.

    Sweetsalt is a cute little cafe in Toluca Lake. Seemed like there were some people doing work on their laptops, friends catching up with each other, and overall a chill, laid-back spot. The food was alright, wasn't blown away by any of the dishes. The side salad was whatever, felt like the mixed greens out of a bag. Service was pretty good and friendly. Highlight was probably the breakfast sandwich.

    Famous for their breakfast/brunch/lunch on Riverside in Toluca Lake, I believe Sweetsalt just opened for dinner service over the past several months. Business must be good, as they've also expanded to a bigger, brand new location just a couple blocks down from where they used to be. Despite living within walking distance, my dinner here just a couple weeks ago was actually my first time stopping in. I'm glad I finally decided to visit, because the food is great! To eat, I ordered the Margherita "Wood Oven" Pizza. Priced at $20, it's not the cheapest in town, but the quality is certainly elevated. The size is also fairly substantial. The decor/ambience is warm and inviting, and while service was on the slower side, everyone was helpful and friendly. If looking for a nice spot to grab some food at around Toluca Lake, Sweetsalt is a solid option. I will likely be back soon to try more of their menu items.

I got their Chicken Pesto Sandwich which came with sun dried tomatoes, Mozzarella Cheese, Arugula, & Vegenaise. (vegan mayo) and I also got their salmon salad that was filled with lots of good, healthy vegetables. The Salmon in the salad was glazed. Came with chopped salad mix, mixed greens, edamame, diced jicama, mango salsa, sesame seeds with dressing. Everything tasted super fresh & delicious!! One minus for me is that my chicken sandwich was VERY SALTY! Nicole said it was the bread, not the chicken. The lemonade that I chose was this tasty lemonade called AGUAFRESCA. A bit sweet, but I enjoyed it. They had 2 other flavors of lemonade: regular yellow & watermelon lemonade. Also different kind of fountain drinks/sodas, iced tea and bottled drinks infront of the register with 3 different kind of cookies for people like me who almost always have a sweet tooth. Place was cute, cozy, clean, had a nice patio, great vibes/music, ambiance, full of people eating inside and outside. I sat inside. They have great customer service! Nicole was great and the place was spotless clean, including their gender neutral restroom. Plenty of parking shared with other business at Noho West. Overall, I had a great dining experience at Urban Cafe. Keep up the good work and always be CONSISTENT! Thank you Nicole, Urbane Cafe, and management.

Will have to introduce my coworkers to this place too! From the start, we had the warmest welcome from Paul who brought us to our table and took our drink orders and recommended some coffees to my wife. He also told us about the specials and showed us menu of special fall drinks (think pumpkin spice lattes) available now. All sounded delicious. Our drinks came a couple minutes later. So quick! After Paul, we got Rachel as our waitress - she was so sweet and welcoming. She was soooooo patient with us as we tried to figure out what to order. Now onto the yummy food! We split the entrees between my wife and I so we can try both plates. We ordered the following: Brisket Breakfast Burrito: Labeled as their "#1 Seller" and rightfully so! The brisket is cooked to perfection - tender, soft and moist. Simply delicious! It comes with scrambled eggs, slow-roasted brisket, sautéed onions/peppers, breakfast potatoes, 4 cheese mexican blend, house-made chipotle aioli and served with house-made salsa verde. It also came with a side of lime mint watermelon. It paired perfectly with the burrito! Lemon Ricotta Berry Bliss French Toast: A well-balanced dish and not overly sweet! It's made with brioche bread dipped in a cinnamon & vanilla egg batter and comes with fresh berries, a scoop of house-made lemon ricotta, drizzled with ghirardelli vanilla sauce, topped with powdered sugar, lemon zest, whipped cream and a side of pure maple syrup (upon request). Rachel kept checking in on us throughout our meal and asked if we needed anything. There was one point when she noticed I was running low on salsa verde for my breakfast burrito and she asked if I wanted more. I said yes, and she brought it right out. Now that's service! Rachel and Paul are amazing! When we went, they also decked the place out in a fall theme and had all the adorable decorations out. There's ample validated self-parking available in the back. If you go really early and the parking attendant isn't there to give you a ticket, the servers inside the restaurant will stamp a receipt for you that you give the attendant on the way out that you'll use as a validated ticket. Overall, great food and great service. Will definitely be back. Thank you again!

She was friendly and helpful throughout the rest of the interaction. The restaurant was clean, which I always appreciate. The atmosphere could use a little improvement, though. It felt a bit stuffy inside, two of the three menu screens weren't working, and it was very quiet with no music playing, which made the dining room feel a little empty. Overall, the food was definitely the highlight and I'd come back for the burgers and loaded tots.
