Wanted to find a breakfast/burrito place in West Hollywood and saw this one all over my FYP, so obvi had to come to try it out. Hands down probably one of the BEST burritos I've had. It looks super small but trust this burrito filled me up a lot. I ordered the breakfast burrito with steak w/ chipotle aioli sauce and an iced vanilla matcha latte. The breakfast burrito was incredible- super crispy hashbrowns, had avocado, steak and paired with the sauce was phenomenal. The matcha, on the other hand, could have definitely be better. I added vanilla sweetener since I like my drinks flavored and sweet, but even so it didn't really taste like anything. The staff are very kind and the overall vibe of the place is great. Would definitely recommend coming here :) read more

Meh. This is one breakfast burrito that does not meet the hype, in my book. Over priced for what you get and not even that tasty. Good news is, LA has plenty of other better breakfast burritos! Spend your money elsewhere. read more

Finally tried this iconic breakfast burrito spot! For $17, I got the burrito with refried beans. Honestly it was really delicious, especially with the cilantro crema, so I definitely see what the hype is about. But it is super expensive for a small burrito and if I added bacon or steak, it would've costed even more. Overall, really amazing burrito but not super worth. read more

This place is awesome. It's pretty hard to find parking but could be worth the wait. I will say that I am a little disappointed in the size of the burritos for the price, but the flavor is great and the coffee was strong so definitely worth it if you have time or walk by. I will say all three of the sauces offered are fantastic. read more

The breakfast burritos here are phenomenal! I also really enjoyed the Birria burrito, I suggest getting one of each and splitting them! They're Matcha and orange juice is also absolutely delicious. I am obsessed with their cilantro, Oli, a perfect companion for the breakfast burrito. Online order and pick up is a breeze, everything is packaged really well to go. The prices are a bit high in the burritos are definitely the smallest in the city, but the flavor and quality makes up for it, highly recommended! read more

This is my second time trying Wake & Late and I'm pretty obsessed. This variation of a breakfast burrito is classic with eggs, avocado, tater tots that provide the perfect textural aspect, and cheese. You can modify and add proteins to it like bacon (which is the perfect addition in my opinion) or steak, as well as the option to add beans. You have the option of 2 sauces, a silky cilantro aioli or the chipotle aioli which is my personal favorite. Everything is packaged extremely well and delivers perfectly if ordering through a delivery app. I've never actually visited a location, but based on my two to-go experiences I'm hooked! Thank you for making breakfast better Wake & Late. read more

I stopped by for the Breakfast Steak Burrito ($20). At first, I thought it was a bit small for the price, but it turned out to be surprisingly filling. The ingredient ratio was well-balanced, everything tasted fresh, and my favorite part was the crispy tater tots inside. They added such a great texture. I also really enjoyed their cilantro sauce, which paired perfectly with the burrito. The service was excellent. The staff member who helped me was very kind and patient, making the experience even better. Parking can be a little tricky, but I found a parking garage on Vine St. ($2 for an hour), and it was only about a three-minute walk to the shop. There's no indoor seating, but they do have a few tables outside. It's a solid spot if you're in the area. While it's definitely on the pricier side, the fresh ingredients and flavorful burrito make it worth trying. read more

The breakfast burritos are good, but this place is overhyped and bit too pricy. I got the breakfast burrito with bacon. The breakfast burrito had great texture from the crispy tater tots and fluffy eggs. I really liked the tortilla as well! The bacon was a nice addition but $4 extra seems a bit pricy. I also had a bite of the steak burrito and there wasn't much steak. The burritos overall are fairly small for a typical breakfast burrito. Overall I did really like the burritos, but I'm not sure they're worth the price. read more

I tried Wake and Late in Pasadena a year or two ago and remember thinking the burritos were pretty expensive for how small they were. Fast forward to now, we tried the Hollywood location on a Sunday around noon and left impressed. First off, the orange juice was super fresh. The small/personal breakfast burrito is $12, which feels very reasonable compared to other spots. They also serve breakfast burritos after breakfast hours we went around 12 PM with no problem. Service was fast, and you can see the staff working quickly inside. They were definitely busy too, especially with the Hollywood Farmers Market going on. I ordered a burrito with no add-ons and chose the cilantro crema hands down the best sauce in my opinion. Perfect amount of potatoes, bacon, and eggs. No complaints at all. They also have coffee and matcha. One more thing for those who care about details: the burritos are made with house-made flour tortillas, made fresh daily using organic, regenerative flour with no preservatives, fillers, conditioners, or seed oils (per the menu). Overall, I'd definitely recommend this location if you're in the area. read more

Easily accessible during the Hollywood Farmers' Market. Drop by, order, so some shopping and then come back for your food. Can't be any easier. The breakfast burrito is solid. But can get pretty pricey considering my neighborhood spot can do it under $10, but these folks use carefully sourced product and have to pay city rent so there's that. The bagels here are solid. They are served piping hot and with a side of your choice of cream cheese. The cheese bagel with the scallion cream cheese is my current favorite combination. You rip the bagel apart and dip it in the side of cheese. I eat it right on site. They've also got a frozen espresso drink that's also pretty fun. It is rather sweet and can pack a wallop, but it's not like you're having it daily. read more

This was the best breakfast burrito I've ever had. It's also my first one but I'm pretty confident I don't need to try any others! I ordered the steak burrito and it came with crispy tater tots, egg, crispy cheese with slices of avocado. I don't like egg so I was scared at first but this was burrito was amazing. It was well put together and all the flavors just work. I recommend getting all the sauces too and put a little bit before every bite. Heaven. Also I don't know why people keep complaining it's so small, it felt normal sized to me. Smaller than Chipotle burritos but obviously those have more food inside. I think for a breakfast burrito almost $20 is steep so I get that but you're paying for quality! Check this place out! read more

World's best breakfast burrito!!! Perfectly proportioned, and this is my first time coming in PERSON! I've typically only ordered on Postmates. First things first, the brick and mortar is adorable. There's this bright orange sign that you can't miss, outdoor seating, anda The service was great! It did take a second for them to make my order, but they're made to order, so the wait didn't bother me! The fresher the better! For some reason I feel like the burritos were a bit bigger when I ordered them online. This could be due to the packaging materials they use for in-person orders. But the taste is always impeccable. Perfect amount of potatoes, bacon, eggs, and the dipping sauce is delectable. I will not turn on this burrito! Lol. I strongly recommend it if you're in the area! A little on the pricy side, but having a brick and mortar in LA pretty much requires it. read more

The burritos were tasty and the ingredients seemed fresh and high quality. The food itself was good, but the portions were smaller than expected for the price. I left feeling like I paid premium prices for a toddler sized meal. The atmosphere was clean, though the crowd felt a bit pretentious and gave a vibe that wasn't really my thing. Overall, the food was solid, but between the high prices, smaller portions, and atmosphere, I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to return. read more

Great staff!! So kind and supportive and gave excellent recommendations. They are in a 2 story strip mall with their own parking lot. They have a center location on the first floor. Limited parking. The shop has an open kitchen. Nice ambiance that is both airy and comfortable. Only open for breakfast and lunch. Orange juice is freshly squeezed. Beautiful color and flavor. The iced frappe was so yummy. Iced chai is ok. Would get the OJ or frozen frappe was so much better. Coffee is good Tortillas are so good and made there. Steak burrito was delicious. Definitely had a great texture and flavor with the tots inside and the 1 different sauces that accompanied there read more

An establishment with a great name but terrible prices for food. The amount you get and charges you occur to add a protein is absurd. Definitely get a breakfast burrito and your drink elsewhere. Came to this place for a very quick order as I was in a rush. Ordered a $14 burrito with no meat because meat is $5 extra. The size of the burrito is a joke, the taste is definitely not even worth $14. The amount they charge for a shot of orange juice is mind blowing. I definitely do not recommend this place for food. read more

Wake and Late still holds up. I tried the Hollywood location after having the downtown one before, and it's still one of the best breakfast burritos in LA. Some people call it overrated, but the simplicity is exactly why it works. The inside gets nice and crispy, and everything stays balanced. I went with the steak this time, but bacon is still the better move here. The crema sauce is a must and pulls the whole burrito together. The staff is friendly and the spot has a cool, relaxed feel. That said, it is small for the price. Expect to pay around $20 for the burrito, and it will not fully fill you up. Think of it as a nice, light breakfast rather than a heavy meal. read more

Nearly $50 on drinks down the drain The coffee was extremely sour. Which means 1 of 2 things and an experienced barista should know... I understand they were busy and maybe the barista on duty wasn't paying attention to the quality, but it was (and truly no exaggeration) the worst coffee of my life. I'm saying plain Kroger's was better than whatever we had here. The matcha... now messing up matcha is an easy feat. However, it's a new experience for me to have a "green" matcha drink and for it to taste of no matcha and only oat milk HOW? Truly I'm asking. How does that happen? The most green drink, you'd think I'd be heavy on matcha and too bitter. No. That's not the taste you got at all. Straight milk. HOW? Overpriced and disgusting? Hard pass. I have never wanted to pull a "Karen" in my life until that moment. Because wtf. But I have issues with standing up for myself and my earned money, so I simply left rather than bringing it up to an employee. And I will say the lady who was at the cashier that day and took our order was friendly and sweet. I think she tried to warn us on what was actually good to order, clearly I did not heed.

This is a great place to invite any motorcycle friends who are visiting from out of town. First, there is parking for cars on the street, and inside there is an area strictly for motorcycles. The restaurant has an open patio and is very dog friendly- they even have a dog menu! The service is good, but pretty busy- they need to hire a few more waiters. When my friend and I were there (Sunday afternoon) it was pretty crowded. The food was excellent- and the desert was good too! It's in a sketchy part of town, so visit during the day. I'm not sure what night traffic is like. But overall, I would suggest coming here!

All the food was pretty good, the service was fantastic, and the pricing was very reasonable. Plus, parking was surprisingly easy! Definitely recommend stopping by.

It's where they grill certain items, lobster, ribeye, skirt steak, the intestinal part of a chicken (?). So, not tacos but grilled meats so we stayed. twist. First of all, it's a lovely space. In a not very obvious area of DTLA, next to Urth Cafe but no other restaurants. We didn't have reservations so we had the option of sitting at the bar or following the waitress to a back room area instead of the front room that is visible to everyone. My son is a minor, so to the back we went! Seriously, the closer we got to the back room the more I felt I had been cast in "The Chef." Scary! Lol! The back room is black. Blackout black! Black tablecloths, walls, chairs, dark, low light. Very luxurious and open space. Which - because it wasn't full at the time - felt a bit like being in the film, The Menu." A bit too upscale and empty to feel comfortable. More guests arrived later, a large table, so that was more comforting. The food: Recommended *Kara Kara Tamales: braised oxtail with a peanut butter sauce. Wow! The taste was wonderful! Hard to explain but Filipino/African food meets Latin food. It was on the "shared plate" menu, which to me means it will be a lot. But the 2 tamales were not very big. Still, they were so rich that the 2 really were sufficient to share. Quite filling. I couldn't get enough of the sauce! *Crab fried rice: Very tasty and generous portion. Plenty share! Not recommended: The street eats menu. Now, this is what pulled us in - the sights and smells of the food being grilled outside the restaurant. Most of which was on this meme. Like a tasting menu. But for price to portion ratio, it simply isn't worth it. I ordered the skirt steak. 4 oz, cut in half. Cooked down to what looked like .5 oz! Each on a toothpick sitting in a paper plate (or maybe it was cupcake holder?) IDK. I just know it wasn't a good presentation and the taste wasn't memorable. Regular. More grill smell than taste. Not at all worth $8. Service: Really nice. And mostly good. Though they did fail short by (1) Using only small appetizer size plates and (2) Not bringing a fresh plate to eat the crab fried rice on after the peanut butter sauce laced tamale appetizer was eaten. The server brought the fried rice, but didn't bother to give us fresh plates (nor silverware). My son was mortified when I grabbed a plate from one of the empty tables! (Teenager energy on full effect). But after initial attentive service, the variety of different servers whizzing by didn't stop to ask if we needed anything. And I sat waiting at least 8 minutes staring at the rice. I assured my young man that the servers would be fine with me getting another plate to save them from having to. And once I did, he suddenly started eating from my plate of my peanut butter free fried rice. And of course, when a server did attend to us and I let her know, she was glad I took matters into my own hands instead of not eating for 15 minutes. Thoughts: Go for dinner, and order from the full dinner menu, skip the skimpy street eats menu. With reservations you can sit in the main restaurant area that has some view to the outdoors. Without it - back to the black room you go! Know that it will be expensive. And it will be original. Not sure I'll go back. It's very "special occasion" upscale dining. But If I do it'll be with reservations. The meal was memorable and worth experiencing.

The ambiance here is pretty generic, white and bright and very copy and paste of a lot of places popping up recently. The staff was super friendly while taking our orders and dropping the food off, which is always appreciated. I ended up ordering the Santo's Turkey Melt which is smoked turkey, grilled onions, Swiss cheese, and chipotle aioli served on sourdough with a side of french fries. The sandwich was really good and the same can be said for the french fries and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of fries given, so thumbs up to that. I forgot what the food costs so I visited the website and for some reason they don't think it's important to put that online, which is pretty darn stupid if you ask me. Overall, I didn't have a bad experience at Sandcouch Cafe and I would visit again in the future thanks to it's convenient location. The food was solid and the staff was friendly, and that's really all I need when ordering a sandwich.

I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!

The crunch of the potato taco riding into the salsa macha and crema felt like home, but with some extra pop. His salsa game is on point. The scallion salsa on the ribeye taco was also gas.

My friend and I, of course, split the bill evenly. Since it was five years ago, I obviously don't remember the exact prices in detail, but I do remember feeling that the food was reasonably priced. The only downside was the valet parking, which I remember being around $20. Other than the parking fee, I really liked the place overall and had a very good experience there.

You can tell they use really good, high-quality matcha because not only could I taste the quality, I could feel it in my energy level too. My sister got the MANGO MATCHA DUO with oat milk and absolutely loved it. My sister's coworker tried the SPARKLING YUZU MATCHA and said it was delicious! She loved that the yuzu flavor wasn't overpowering and said the matcha tasted very high quality. We also got the STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE MATCHA DUO because it was recommended as one of their top picks. We gave it to another one of her coworkers, and she finished it so quick! She said it tasted like a dessert and raved about how delicious and amazing it was! There's seating area in front of the café and as well as inside. The inside is really cute and had a nice atmosphere. The best time to go is early in the morning when open. Customer service was exceptional! Everyone was very kind while at the same time quick and attentive to the line. If there tends to be a line, it moves pretty quickly, and our drinks were ready fast after we ordered. If you get lucky, you can find street parking, but be careful parking on Olympic Blvd. during certain times. Not to worry though because they do have a parking structure, which makes things much easier. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ROK Coffee & Tea! Everything we tried gets a 10/10 from us!

Best Breakfast Burrito in LA! Wake and Late truly knows how to do breakfast right! Hands down, the best breakfast burrito in all of LA. At first glance, I thought the burrito looked a little small, but don't be fooled--it's packed with a substantial amount of deliciousness. Every bite was flavorful, and the burrito was perfectly balanced between hearty and satisfying. The highlight? That cilantro sauce! It adds an incredible burst of freshness and ties everything together beautifully. I left feeling full and more than satisfied.

Ambiance: This cafe is so cute, and has almost a Bridgerton-like wall paper. There is ice water, which you can self serve. We parked on the street nearby and walked over. Highly recommend you come with friends for a weekend brunch!

Once we sat down we noticed none of the tables we're wiped clean, just quickly bussed. I ordered the traditional breakfast which was delicious. The eggs, bacon, and potatoes were perfect. The crepes were honestly flavorless but I drenched them in syrup and they were okay. The little croissant was super salty and dry, I didn't eat it. I also got a vanilla latte and it was perfect! 10/10 My bf got the matcha latte, and he didn't like it. Said it tasted like all syrup.

It's tucked away in the back of the Hollywood Production Center, easy parking and a nice outdoor seating area. But its the food AND service that are next level, couldn't ask for more. The breakfast burritos (pastrami!), smoothies and Bacon Blue Cheese burger are some of my favorites. If you're anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and check them out!

You walk up to a counter and place your order. Seating is outside or inside the studio. There are games you can play and even a game table! I played with the Lite-brite The food was amazing!! I had the pulled pork sandwich and chips. 10/10 and my hubby had the patty melt and fries. 10/10 Even the tenants at the Production Studio said their food was good so we made a great choice!!

Ended up hanging out longer than I planned because it's a good place to just sit for a bit. What I loved most is that it's a place with purpose, not just another trendy coffee spot. It's connected to the LA LGBT Center and supports real community programs. Only thing is the hours are kind of limited, so you have to catch it earlier in the day. But I'd definitely come back.

Just left about 20-30 mins. I've passed by this spot so many times and said one day I'm a go lol…read more Today was that day. I stopped by today for lunch. It was busy but not overwhelming. Everyone was already seated and eating when I walked in and sat down. It was a real chill vibe. Sports game was on. It was some quiet. It's a nice space for a cafe. They have two dining sections as well as a patio section out front. Prices were reasonable. I had an espresso martini for the first time and it was amazing. Both Natalie and Jazmin are some amazing waitresses/bartenders. The food was good. I ordered the chicken and waffles. Being that it was Cajun style I was expecting more of a Cajun seasoning but the chicken was still good. It was a decent amount of chicken pieces. $9 for the express martini was not bad at all. $19 for the chicken and waffles was about average compared to other spots in the area or nearby. I can see myself returning.

They are nestled between Tacos 1986 and the New Beverly Theater. It's easy to drive by and miss them. I ordered my usual go to diner order, Steak & Eggs + Crispy Hashbrowns. Since the ribeye steak was thin it arrived on the well done side, not the end of the world. Still enough fat content in the ribeye that the steak wasn't completely dry. My server was nice and attentive. My favorite part was that the coffee was served in a 2 cup small thermos like the kind at iHOP back in the day. I would recommend as they are a small business that hits the spot. I definitely will be back again. notes: street parking is decent in the area but limited due to all the other businesses.

It's crazy how I've never been here before. We randomly pooped in for a late brunch after a quick…read morewalk around the neighborhood for some shopping. Plus we noticed that they had a nice patio that was pet friendly. It's part of a hotel when we walked in. We asked the front reception staff if we could look at the menu beforehand which we thought it was part of the restaurant. He mentioned that the restaurant was inside. Somewhat helpful but in a non professional way if you get what I mean. We walked into the restaurant part which there was no one inside. Took a while till we spoke to someone which they mentioned to have a seat anywhere we like. Of course the outdoor patio was where everyone was and it was a perfect afternoon. After seated, the staffs were amazing and very friendly. That's a good sign inside the restaurant. It's mainly breakfast and brunch as they only open till 3. Their cocktail menu was quite impressive with a load of drinks that sounded amazing and pretty reasonable. Started off with their spicy passion fruit margarita and their cucumber mezcalito. Both were very tasty and refreshing. Perfect for an afternoon. Food, a side order of their fries which was different than I have ever had. Shoestring fries tossed in a chili sauce with flakes. That was a surprise and a must have. The mango and chicken salad was perfect. Clean and refreshing with loads of grilled chicken, mangos slices and avocado onto a bed of mixed greens. A perfect spring summer salad that's very refreshing and delicious. Not overly heavy which was great. Lastly the creamy chicken and mushroom crepe. That too was pretty tasty and very filling. Plus the potion was plentiful. Sever with a mixed salad as well. For the amount of it, it was great. The food and drinks were amazing. Service was great with friendly staff. Outdoor patio seemed to be the place as inside was quite beautiful but quiet. Front desk was somewhat helpful when we walked in. But that didn't affect our meal.

We had to park a block away and walk, which honestly feels like the unofficial "cover charge" for dining anywhere on this street. Our server was friendly, and the meal itself was decent. The pancake could definitely be better, but nothing was terrible. What threw me off was the checkout process. Our waiter didn't give us a chance to look over the bill before charging us. We split the payment three ways and didn't even get to double‑check if everything was correct. It's not the end of the world, but it's also not the kind of surprise I enjoy with brunch. Overall, the place is fine--just be ready to hunt for parking, walk a bit, and apparently trust that your bill is accurate without seeing it first.

We stopped in on a Sunday around 11:30, no line and very quick service! Finished eating and left around 12:05 so we must've lucked out with no line. We got two double cheese burgers and the loaded fries. The burger had impressively thin patties with a really nice char on the meat skirt, well seasoned, and perfectly crispy. The buns were quite small and a bit smooshed, but they were soft. It came with some fry sauce and pickles as well, overall a good burger. The fries had a good amount of toppings (cheese onions, fry sauce) and were nice and crispy. Kinda wish the onions were slightly more grilled for some extra flavor! Would probably go for plain next time as the loaded fries and burger together had similar flavors The interior has a few benches for seating and single bar type seating around the perimeter - I could see it filling up if there's a big line of people. Would like to try the chicken sandwich and brussel sprouts next time we stop by!

I have carried life's burden and traveled continents, but one thing remains the same after my many moons of life, the taste of a Big Mac. The taste of a burger so consistent and familiar, that my tastebuds can traverse continents and taste fermented shark in the Netherlands, broiled Mackerel in Kyoto, or a cheeseburger in Reykjavik. The Big Mac stays the same. I went to LA to taste, apparently, the best burger in LA at For the Win. I paid $25 for two smash burgers and had high expectations. After all, when you click this joint on Google Maps, a fancy review pops up. Nice! However, when the smash burger entered my cave and caressed my buds, my mind instantly recognized it as a Big Mac. Therefore, my brain could hardly differentiate between a McDonalds burger, and the "best" burger in LA. I haven't eaten at McDonalds in 14 years, but my mind still knew what a gentle and warm face looks like. So overall, it was alright! As the reverend Shane Gillis says "Not Bad". The service was good tho. And the ambiance was a bit weird because the music was off. Haha bye!!!
