Naz Hash: Earl Grey ice cream!! 👌👏
Paul T.: Pricey but delicious with decadent flavors including my favorite lavender and Earl Gray tea.
Connie Chiu: Rosemary pine nut and earl grey are my favorite. There's a secret back room past the freezer to hangout in 😜 photobooth, chalk walls, and couches. Ask them about it!

Spanish Restaurant · Mid-City West · 24 tips and reviews
Pocket Sun: European style brunch table is the best! $42 per person but it's worth it. Great salmon, oysters, shrimps, caviar and prime rib. Pastries are not as good as I thought though.
gina mom: Brunch buffet here is pretty amazing. Beautiful set up all around, exquisite meats like prime rib & exotic touches like caviar & that gazpacho- totes recommended! Esp if you get a private dining room.
G$: Sit by one of the fireplaces, it's more private!

Ross Sheingold: Celeb hot spot. Yellowtail sashimi is a can't miss, as is the toro tartare. The tuna tacos are also pretty great.

Kaye: The Guinnes of Coffee, strong and rich. The crew here is great and I recomment the eggs with holendaise with bacon instead of ham (because everything's better with bacon!)
Showtime Network: Their coffee should be permanently pumped into your veins. After a Vanilla Latte and half grapefruit, I feel like I can conquer anything in my day. - Tracy
Farah Hassanzadeh: Great brunch spot. The spinach goat cheese omlette is one of my favs

Adam Cheung: Really nice hidden gem across from The Grove. You can play like ping pong while you wait for your party to arrive at the adjacent Farmer's Daughter hotel. Nicely priced menu. Good veggies.
Ryan Patrick: Every meal is $12.99. Jump in the pool with your clothes on for half off.
Ryan Alexander: Awesome place for brunch. Ask to sit on the patio, great atmosphere.

Jinnie L: gotta try the Irish steel cut oatmeal n egg benedict. my mom's fav. is short rib sandwich (yummy!)
People: Sure, you can get artisan cheese, pastries and preparedfoods at this family market, but the best dish could be on the patio — whereyou might spy stars like Jake Gyllenhaal mid-bite.
Bravo: Fresh seasonal food. I love to go there for breakfast and have the organic soft boiled eggs. -Malika Ameen, Top Chef Just Desserts
