    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!

    "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.

    Yummy mushroom truffle pizza!

    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.

    Garlic shrimp appetizer

    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.

    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.

    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.

And the generous side of caesar dressing is the very BEST I've ever had. Wish I could have saved it and slathered it on everything. The Turk sando was very good, but more like a 4/5. Solid fillings and good ratios, but not a WOWER. Added chips and 2 desserts: the chocolate chip cookie which was outrageous, loaded with chocolate in every bite, and the lemon olive oil cake was divine. Pro tip: do not skip out on the desserts.

One of the seasonal specials is the Martha which is an upgraded version of chicken salad (Tarragon chicken salad, apples, shaved fennel, arugula, basil, lemon, garlic aioli on grilled Ciabatta, $16) which sounded pretty good. I placed the order online and headed over to this busy section of Studio City. Street parking can be tricky especially in the afternoon, and there are 'parking ticketers' out in force. This was my first time here at this location, but they had a handy takeout window at the one end, and a friendly guy handed me the bag. As for the food, I could only eat half of the sandwich; one reason is because it was a Lot of sandwich and second, I didn't really enjoy this for the most part (I did give the other half to a hungry co-worker who did like it). Then my favorite part, the cookies. I ordered two orders (two come in an order) so I had four to enjoy. The first bag was a decent sized pair of cookies, but they shafted me on the second order. This was basically one cookie cut to make two which was clearly noticeable compared to the other order. I was too far to return these but next time, it's something I will check on before leaving. I didn't have this problem the first time I came here (even though it was a different location) but as for anything, I recommend checking your order prior to leaving. Otherwise, I will be returning to Ggiata but maybe for a classic Turk or Antonia, or even the arancini side-

We grabbed two breakfast sandwiches, one with bacon and one without, and both were standout in their own way. The first thing you notice? These sandwiches come out piping hot, wrapped tight and ready to go. Crack them open and you're hit with perfectly cooked eggs and an almost ridiculous amount of gooey, melted cheese. Not skimpy, not balanced, loaded in the best possible way. The Kaiser roll deserves its own shoutout: lightly toasted with just enough crunch on the outside while staying soft and pillowy inside. It holds everything together without getting soggy, even with all that cheese. * The meat version had crispy, flavorful bacon layered just right, salty, smoky, and not overdone. * The meatless one didn't feel like a compromise at all, still rich, filling, and honestly just as indulgent thanks to the cheese and eggs. No frills, no gimmicks, just classic deli breakfast sandwiches executed really well. Bottom line: If you want a hot, cheesy, perfectly toasted breakfast sandwich that actually hits the spot, Paulie's is a win. I can't wait to go back for lunch!

One week night I came by with my sis. I've been craving a good burger. It didn't have to be fancy or had anything specific or special about it. Just a plain good ol cheeseburger. Although they did have the Stand Burger I changed it up just a tad and went for the ABC. Got adventurous and added an extra patty. Sis asked me if my craving for the burger has been killed. I told her that I am happy about having a burger but I messed up adding the extra patty and the craving is still on. Adding the extra patty made the burger feel dry and it was just too much. It wasn't you, it was me. The other night I was with my nieces and suggested to go to The Stand. I wanted redemption for my mistake. Thought what was missing last time was probably a slice of cheese accompanying that extra patty. This visit, I ordered the Havarti Shroom Burger: added extra patty, added cheese. I asked the cashier if its possible to have the cheese on top of the extra patty and explained it just like "cheese, patty, cheese, patty, medium cooked". They looked confused but seemed to have made it happen? Order arrived and it the burger came cheese, cheese, patty, patty, well done. I didn't want to bother trying to correct the order and just went with it. One of the niece was smart enough to tell me to flip the bottom patty so now its patty, cheese, cheese, patty. That didn't really help. lol It wasn't me this time, it was you. All in all I am in a loss with adding extra patty at The Stand. Guys, don't do it.
