The 11 Best Croissants In Los Angeles, Ranked - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"We were pleasantly surprised by the delicate, flavorful, browned-but-not-burnt croissants from this bakery chain from San Francisco, though maybe we shouldn’t have been. Tartine is a household name in the Bay Area (and its six LA locations) for a reason. Their plain croissants have several attributes we enjoy—caramelized bottoms, buttery layers that somehow taste warm even when they’re not, and flaky shards that get all over your shirt—but if you’re open to a savory breakfast, the one filled with ham and gruyere is on another level." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder, brant cox
