    My family and I walk the dog here like 3x a week!! Great coffee selection and food! Conviently located right next to chevron in the same parking lot!

    Chicken Chingon Sandwich

    Chicken Chingon was good , comes with a Serrano and good salsa. ! Friendly staff, good service and good coffee.

    BLTA Sandwich

    Literally the cutest place to stop for lunch on your way out of town! We were looking for something quick, but didn't see any fast food around so we stopped by the Shack after grabbing gas. The service was far better than most restaurants in LA and the selection of food was quite extensive. Our sandwiches were delicious!! Neither of us are sandwich people, but these sandwiches were something else. The ratio of each of the toppings was spot on. The outdoor seating is very cute and perfect for an expedited meal. I will definitely be back!

    The turkey club is so good! Always upgrade to the spicy Mayo!

    My husband recently started working at UCLA, and I promised him we would find a couple great lunch spots. First time is a charm! We were leaving the campus and I went random on maps for a spot to stop for lunch on the way, and this was the winner. After looking at reviews, I knew we chose correctly. To be honest, I don't remember what he got the first time, because while it was good, mine was better. The turkey club is freaking delicious. The sourdough bread was toasted to the perfect fineness that it didn't rip the roof of my mouth apart(my biggest odd complaint about club sandwiches). We always upgrade to the spicy Mayo and it's worth it! I'm sure they have plenty of delicious items on their menu, but we go for the club!

    Cool little place with a very large menu for such a small place. We had a club an fries and they were delicious. If you are going to the Getty it's a great place to grab a bite.

    The quality goes down, and the prices continue to go up! Not a good combination. The new owners have ruined it.

    Looking at the other reviews, don't know if I just got lucky while dining in but I had no problems…read morewith the service or the quality of the bowls here. Came for lunch one day, and we tried the brand new hot honey chicken plate that they just released and it was SO GOOD. I was not expecting it to be that fire but I highly recommend getting this while you can!! It doesn't really taste like hot honey at all; it's more like a fall harvest vibe because it has sweet potatoes and a quinoa and coleslaw situation. Regardless, it was so delicious and filling. I added spinach for extra green and I think it would be even better if you added broccoli too. Pretty expensive though ($18ish) which is sad but as expected from sweetgreen. They had plenty of outdoor seating at this location. The tables were pretty dirty but we wiped them down with napkins so it was fine.

    Sweetgreen is always a good experience in regard to the convenience and taste. If you're looking…read morefor something fast and somewhat healthy (use good choices and track what you're getting with each item), then they're a great option forsure. It'll always be expensive though, but you're paying for solid food. At this location specifically in Brentwood, I haven't had any issues and the employees are always really friendly and super helpful, even during busy times. The price is always the downfall, but like with anything, you pay for what you want. My favorite is the miso glazed salmon!

Food: We ordered 2 Steak and Eggs ($25 each) and the Ribeye Chilaquiles ($39 each) from the Brunch special. The portion was perfect, not too big and too small. The steak was nicely prepared the way we wanted it (medium). It was very tender and flavorful - we enjoyed every bite we had especially my kids. Service: Staff are very friendly and welcoming, they were very sweet, nice and attentive. Their customer service is great! Ambiance: It is located in a plaza at the corner of Santa Monica Blvd & Brockton - they have free parking on the lot. The restaurant itself is not as big as I imagined from the pictures here in yelp - I think rough estimate is for 30-36 people max? But they do have a small cute outdoor seating area as well. We will definitely go back to this place next time we visit the area!

One ordered the chicken salad with the goddess I ordered the veggie wrap with a few subs and another worker ordered cafe ceasar salad And one more order was melrose wrap So first thing first parking was a beast i had a literal confrontation with another person over parking which was so stressful and the parking guy/security guy only intensified the situation but it was over just as fast as it started. After that i was able to get out and make the order for my food. The lady at the window was so kind and helpful she made the experience i had with parking all worth it. I waited about 15 min which wasnt too bad i only made the order there as opposed making it online because of the subs. Now the food was simply amazing. She made sure i had plenty of sauce utensils and ect. Every single solitary bite was so delicious and the food had a very fresh appealing taste. I def recommend calif chicken cafe 10/10 for those that have never been here just plan accordingly as far as parking but the food is worth it.

Can't give a 5 star rating since it was only pick up. Definitely come back if I am in the area.
