RachelFebruary 17, 2016No seating inside but you can take advantage of the casual crate tables and chairs in the neighboring alley. Blackened fish and grilled cheese sandwiches are excellent.

cftDecember 29, 2015Sandwich and pizza did the job. Very tasty. It's fresh, so be ready to wait a few minutes at rush hours, but well worth the wait. Don't expect any seating. As everything on Abbot K., a bit expensive.Upvote2Downvote
Emily WilsonSeptember 11, 2017The brownies here are the best I've ever had (no nuts, consistency of flourless chocolate cake), and brownies are my favorite baked good. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't get one.UpvoteDownvote
tricia wangJune 17, 2017The cap w/ almond milk is worth every penny of the $5.75 - one of the best I've ever had.

Yaseen RoccaNovember 14, 2014Outstanding, genius pizza. Healthy, tasty soup. Lamb sausage pizza would probably make you never look back at any bacon or ham pizzas again! No seating & [not] $$; this place is pricey, easily $$$.

Adrian PhillipsOctober 10, 2014Blackened fish sandwich is a must try for those that like fish on bread. The pizza is the same great pizza that's served in Gjelina. Great for a quick bite when you don't feel like waiting for tablesUpvoteDownvote
Alex PyatetskyMarch 7, 2016I can eat the cauliflower and Brussel sprouts in endless quantities. The pizza is possibly the best I've ever hard. Bahn mi good, but not authentic. Best brownies I've ever had.UpvoteDownvote
Erika PerziDecember 1, 2013Pizzas to go here are great; but really love coming here in the morning. Fantastic Caffe Americano (and mochas), open face toasts - especially their avocado radish option. Worth the parking effort.UpvoteDownvote
Akiko INovember 19, 2013Solid turkey sandwich. Brisket banh mi (Vietnamese sandwich) was very greasy/watery and messy to eat. Good flavor but they use Vietnamese pickles, not a French style baguette. $30 for 2 sandwich..Upvote1Downvote
Priscilla LeongJune 6, 2015Got a latte, rasberry scone, proscuitto toast, smoked salmon toast and frittata. Everything was good and fresh. Even if it was crowded, the service was good and quick.UpvoteDownvote
Chris CooksonSeptember 25, 2016Probably the nicest pizza, I've had in LA. $7 a slice is a bit steep but when you see their actual coal oven, you'll know it's worth that extra few bucks over Abbot's Pizza a block awayUpvoteDownvote- Jessica BlumenthalNovember 8, 2014I love the bang mi and the meatball sandwich for Dinner. The breakfast sandwich, granola, and toasts are an amazing way to wake up. Basically you can't go wrong!UpvoteDownvote
- Anthony RequiaMarch 21, 2016Best Tuna Melt I've ever had. They make it with red onions and capers. You can grab a sandwich and sit on the milk creates in the alley way. Really cool spot.UpvoteDownvote
- The lamb sausage pizza is the best pizza I have ever had. It is amazing!
Upvote1Downvote - Keri GarelNovember 12, 2014Sit on a milk crate, pay too much for a brisket bánh mì, and enjoy the hell out of your life during the moments you spend eating one of the best sandwiches around.UpvoteDownvote
- Dzmitry BazhkoOctober 20, 2016Delicious Turkey Sandwich for breakfast. Cute and friendly place.
Upvote1Downvote - JessicaJune 1, 2015Their warm date cake is a must try. Get yourself a reservation beforehand though; otherwise you might be waiting for a long, long.. Time.

Matei P.August 9, 2015Gjelina without the reservation or the wait, or even the sticker shock. Great food served by good people. A local institution.UpvoteDownvote- Aaron LandryMay 1, 2014Get the Bitter Greens with Bacon pizza. Comes with tomato confit, treviso, bacon, fontina, thyme. An incredibly tasty pizza.UpvoteDownvote
Damian BayonaMarch 5, 2018The fish sandwich is probably the best thing on the menu - flaky, breaded fish on a toasted brioche bun 👌🏻UpvoteDownvote- Connor JamesSeptember 12, 2014Great coffee, they carry Sightglass roasters from San Francisco. Third wave, specialty coffee pour oversUpvoteDownvote
- Alex PyatetskyDecember 20, 2015Pricy for portion size, but very tasty and great ingredients. Nowhere to sit, but you can eat standing like a European cafe.UpvoteDownvote

NatApril 28, 2015Had the lamb sausage pizza...was super oily. The pulled pork sandwich was dripping oil but was tasty. Not healthy but worth a visit for a quick bite to eat.UpvoteDownvote
Connie ChiuSeptember 12, 2016Fried egg over turkey is like a breakfast burger--super tasty. The porridge just tastes real healthy. Pricey spot though.UpvoteDownvote
