    The owner of this tiny cafe made my breakfast herself while talking to me about her experiences as a lifelong LA resident. I'm vacationing here and know little about the city other than what you read in travel guides or Wikipedia, so it was very interesting to talk to her. The food is good, and the little garden patio is the best place to enjoy it. This is basically what a good little hole in the wall cafe experience should be. And it was only $16.xx!

    Just had a cup of coffee and a croissant. The coffee was delicious. Croissant was good. I will for sure be back to this beautiful garden cafe.

    Go! Get the carnitas sandwich, or the tofu chorizo, or some coffee - but go, eat, and talk with Dulce. She has a beautiful spirit and you will feel it, and you will love the food too!

    The ham sandwich was a delightful taste. Nothing of it tasted unpleasant! It was just perfect. I honestly do not like mustard but when it is combined with different ingredients like this sandwich it just tastes really great. The smoothie too. Around $19 for a sandwich and a smoothie with a sliced orange fruit worth it. The only thing is that you might not find parking here. Took me alittle bit to find parking on the street. A diverse group of drinks to choose from. I enjoyed my lunch here. There was even humming birds flying around and plants all round the tables and seats outside. It made me feel like I was in a forest enjoying my delicious sandwich! It also had some nice soothing music playing making me feel like if I was at peace with nature.

    Dulce, the owner, is helpful and friendly. She makes the best milanesa torta it is delicious. It's always a welcoming cafe to get a croissant or muffin with coffee. Plus, my pup Chula loves stopping by to say hi and get a treat from Dulce.

    Stopped in for a ham and cheese bagel and iced coffee and everything was delicious ! Zenaida is the sweetest person ever and we had the best conversation while she prepared my order. Service was quick and friendly, I will definitely be back! The place is surrounded by plants and she has plenty of vegan,veggie, lactose intolerant friendly items. My new go to place for bagels

    The owner greeted us with a friendly smile and great conversation! She suggested menu items which were absolutely delicious. We had the vegan Chorizo breakfast sandwich, definitely recommend! Pomegranate tea and chocolate Abuelita were delicious as well. Definitely will stop by when in the area again! Thank you for such great hospitality.
