    Venice Bakery and Restaurant is cool spot on Venice that has a breakfast and lunch menu with tons of options. They had a really great service. The lady at the counter were super nice helpful and resourceful and when you walk in there, there's a subtle music and it smells delicious. So I got the breakfast burrito and the Monterey Jack cheese in there with the black beans is so potent but it's so so delicious. Absolutely jampacked with flavor great consistency. Great taste would highly recommend trying the breakfast burrito. It's a standup. I enjoyed it so much. I didn't get a chance to try any pastries, but I will be back to try more to add to this review but I would recommend going trying to breakfast burrito. Very delicious.

    Super Chilaquiles Divorciados
    Marc L.

    So I came here this morning and ordered the chilaquiles divorciados and I paid 26 dollars which is kind of steep just for carne asada. I would say this is more Cuban than Mexican I mean plantains that are soggy and no flavor and the black beans typically chilaquiles doesn't have black beans so a weird start to that and now the main course which is the tortilla chips the sauce they use has a very very very tomatoey flavor the red salsa they have should be all over the chips along with the crema and some cheese this was the soggiest wet chilaquiles I ever had. The restaurant itself has a Mexican bakery/restaurant vibe. The bread container is left open the bollio was too soft and kind of tasted stale. Overall 2 stars because it was a big piece of carne and to top it off I found a hair in my food and I called and they remade me a new one but they told me it was from the elephant garlic they use so wasn't a good start. The service seemed reasonable there is a lady with red hair and another lady with what appears to be grey hair and they are going back and forth.i would not come back to this place we tried there tamales along time ago and they were so dry overall 26 dollars for chips and carne is a lot and I don't think I would wanna try it again

    Ambiance: it's a small family style Mexican bakery and brunch place Service: friendly but slow and forgetful, had to wait for a while to get seated and place the order, then remind a couple of times to get the proper drink, they were busy and it took about 40 minutes to get the food served Food & Drink: numerous items on the menu, plenty choices for breakfast and traditional Mexican food Super Chilaquiles Divorciados - *** Served with Black beans, plantains, & Botillo, Red and Green Sauce, Choice of Spicy, Choice of Eggs Over Medium, and Choice of Carne Asada, the red sauce was tasty, and green sauce was very soured, beef was rubbery Breakfast Torta - *** Scrambled Eggs, Black Beans, Queso Fresco, with Bacon, average taste Tres Leches Cake - ***** one of the best I had, so smooth and creamy, highly recommend Drip Coffee Colombian - **** bold taste, recommend Price: generous portions and affordable prices, expect $20~$25 per person, 4% discount if paying cash

    I just had to take a moment to share my recent experience at this charming little gem. The food was absolutely delicious, and the sweets were a delightful treat! Every bite was a testament to the amazing flavors they offer. What truly stood out to me was the super friendly staff, who made the experience even more enjoyable. Their warm service complemented the fantastic food perfectly. I highly recommend visiting to anyone looking for great tasting food and an inviting atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit!

    Eating at Venice Bakery & Restaurant took me back to breakfasts as a kid with my Guatemalan family. The plátanos were perfectly cooked, the scramble beautifully prepared--I could not have asked for a better meal to start my day. I will absolutely be a return customer to this cozy and no-frills treasure.

    Great portions and delicious meals! I came here to grab lunch with friends and I was impressed with the food. It's very good and has a homemade flavor. The smoothies are also tasty and come in generous portions. I ordered the chilaquiles and added chicken to my entree. The restaurant also has a bakery with plenty of delicious sweet bread. Service was very fast and we had our food within minutes. They have indoor and outdoor dining, too, which is perfect to sit outside as you're catching up with friends.

    Venice bakery is one of the few bakeries with full food & drink menu. Their black beans & plantains are the best. You will not go wrong

    Super Chilaquiles Divorciados Plate
    Tatiana E.

    Was recommended by a friend to try this last week while I was in LA. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint. It is a small hole in the wall located within a residential area. It has a few outdoor seating and is very cozy and tucked away. I ordered the chilaquiles with the carne asada and spicy. It did not disappoint, it was filling without being too heavy and the flavors were fresh with the right amount of spicy. I'm more of a green salsa type of girl but the waitress recommended I get it with both red and green and let me tell you, she was right! Both salsa had flavor and freshness and blended perfectly. I topped this off with the iced horchata latte and it was sweet and rich. It went nicely with the spice. Only con was the bathroom situation, it's located behind the main building and because we are just visiting we didn't feel the most comfortable walking behind the building trying to search for it.

    Chilaquiles "Divorciados"
    Aneesa M.

    Venice Bakery feels like home. The staff is super friendly and the food is always excellent! Been coming here for years and bringing all my friends and family. It's just got a cool vibe, you know? Like they're not trying too hard to be fancy but their food and service isn't sloppy either. I order the "chilaquiles divorciados" every time. The pastelitos and huevos rancheros are great too.

    The food is delicious. The service is polite and welcoming. Best time to come is during the week if you can. Weekends get crowded by 10. I recommend the chilaquiles and the coffee with cinnamon.

    Outdoor patio dining area

    Venice bakery and restaurant is A Plus!! Great Latin-inspired bakery/restaurant with delicious food, affordable prices, heartfelt touches and a quaint patio. Another amazing place I wouldn't have found without Yelp! Free street parking. Pass the cutest patio in front, check in, scan menu, sign in at the clipboard, take advantage of free hand sanitizer dispensers. I've been here a few times for breakfast, it's consistently great with friendly service. Portions are big. The black beans are rich with flavor, stewed to heavy cream consistency, decadent. Plantains are soft, overripe, not overcooked. Eggs are fluffy and light. Mexican scrambled eggs, tomatoes, onions, peppers and avocado make a great vegetarian option. Chorizo and eggs, made with meaty Central American style sausage, makes a great keto breakfast. Order both and a couple coffee drinks on the patio like I did for under $25 total. Popular destination for delivery and takeout, take advantage of staying in and order ahead. If you're looking for a great spot to to kick up your heels on the patio safely, this is your new favorite too! Many thanks to Yelpers for helping me find this hidden gem!

    1 Star -- Extremely disappointing experience…read more Unfortunately, our experience at this restaurant was horrible from the moment we arrived. When I first arrived, I gave them the name of our reservation, and the staff had no idea what I was talking about. We were a party of 6, yet they seated us at a tiny table that was clearly not appropriate for our group. When it was time to order, my husband very clearly told the waiter which pasta he wanted and even showed him a picture of the item on the menu. The waiter looked at it and agreed. My food came out, but my husband's food never did. We eventually found out that his order was never even put in. What made it worse was when the waiter came out saying, "Oh my God, I thought you said you didn't want it." Everyone at the table looked at him completely confused because my husband had literally told him what he wanted and showed him the menu item. Instead of simply acknowledging the mistake and fixing it, we were left waiting. On top of that, trying to get anyone's attention was nearly impossible. We had to repeatedly try to get someone's attention just to get basic service. Then there was another issue with the entrance fee. My sister-in-law had messages showing that we were told that if we ate at the restaurant, we would no longer have to pay the entrance fee. We showed those messages to the woman handling the wristbands, but instead of looking into it or speaking to someone who could clarify the situation, she simply said, "I don't know, you have to pay." No attempt was made to investigate or resolve the issue. After everything that happened, they still added a tip to the bill, despite the extremely poor service we received. Overall, this was one of the most frustrating restaurant experiences I've had. Poor communication, poor service, lack of organization, and no effort to make things right. I definitely will not be recommending this place to anyone, and we will not be returning.

    We came to Sonoratown around 11:30AM on a Saturday for basically a brunch. I had always heard about…read moretheir burrito and love a good flour tortilla so I was excited to give it a try. The menu is simple but seemingly well thought out. Prices were good for LA. I ordered a carne asada burrito 2.0 and a medium cucumber lime agua Fresca for less than $20 total. At the time we came in, the restaurant was virtually empty, which was a relief because this location is quite small. Food came out quick, and someone brought it out to where we were sitting. It comes with some radish, a grilled green onion, a lime, and two of their salsas (a salsa verde and what I believe is their chiltepin salsa). Right away, you can tell the quality of the tortilla from the feel and the slightly translucent look of it. Upon giving it a taste, I'd say it lived up to the hype. The tortilla was flavorful and chewy, and the meat inside had a fresh smoky flavor from the grill. While I prefer refried beans in a burrito, I could tell the beans were cooked well too. Altogether, I have no complaints. Is it a life changing burrito like some make it out to be? Maybe not. To me, it tasted like a few very well executed ingredients put together rather than a transformative dish. But for the price, I think it's very impressive. You just don't get a tortilla like that anywhere. The agua Fresca was very good too, and with prices of aguas frescas pushing $12+ at some places, this felt like a great deal. I would say I recommend the pepino limon over the coconut horchata, which was just a bit bland.

Since they live in an area with limited Mexican cuisine, I chose Guelaguetza, a James Beard Award-winning restaurant with authentic Oaxacan recipes, something completely new to them. They were excited to try something different, as they don't have many Mexican food options where they live, and I wanted to expand their culinary horizons. We were greeted with complimentary chips - some were drizzled with mole and Oaxacan cheese, which we requested refills of, and others were served with red and green salsas. The green salsa had a nice kick to it. For our meal, we shared two large dishes: the Festival de Moles ($53.00) and the Tlayuda Guelaguetza ($27.50). The Tlayuda Guelaguetza, which is also called a Mexican pizza, was layered with bean and chicharron spread, queso fresco, cabbage, quesillo, beef tasajo, pork Cecina, and pork chorizo. While I've always wanted to try Tlayuda, this one wasn't good, and I wouldn't recommend it. The pork chorizo was particularly unappetizing, and neither my parents nor I enjoyed the dish, feeling it was a waste of money. The Festival de Moles ($53.00) featured four individual moles - negro, rojo, coloradito, and estofado - with a choice of shredded chicken breast or pork spare ribs. We opted for a mix of both and found this dish to be excellent, and we would definitely order it again. They were very impressed with the moles, and enjoyed them for the first time. The only minor complaint was a lack of tortillas to dip with the mole, though they did provide some rice. We ordered several drinks, which significantly increased the bill. I was surprised we spent $200 on lunch for three people with only two meals. I started with the Pasion De Oaxaca ($16.00), a mezcal, tequila, passion fruit, grapefruit juice, and tajin cocktail that was excellent, perfectly balanced, strong, but not too sweet. For my second drink, I had the refreshing Aquas Frescas - Jamaica ($6), which was perfect after my meal. I even took it to go, and they kindly provided a cup. My dad ended up taking it, as he needed it with his medication (they're old!). My parents, who were trying mole for the first time, were very impressed and really enjoyed it. Our only minor complaint was the lack of tortillas to dip in the mole, although they did provide some rice. The food took a little longer to come out, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. I imagine this type of cuisine is labor-intensive, and you can't rush the cooking time for mole. You just have to trust the process! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Guelaguetza Restaurante and will definitely be back. I can see why they're a James Beard Award-winning restaurant; you can get authentic Oaxacan flavors in LA! We're lucky to live here.
