My husband found this cute little spot on Yelp and was really excited to try it, so we went on a Saturday for lunch. Even though we walked in around noon, the place wasn't crowded. If you are dining in you can sit down with a menu and when you're ready you go up to the cashier to order.
We sat down and ordered a few things to try:
Shakshuka ($17.95) - A sunny-side up egg, sweet peppers, turkey sausage, scallions, house fennel, and arrabiatta. This dish was really pretty with the flower petals sprinkled on top, but I was looking for eggs cooking in Hell. Adding the turkey sausage threw me off (I'm used to no meat in it), but it added flavor and extra protein. This dish wasn't overly salted, the bread was nicely crusted, and overall I'd say this dish was on the sweet side, which I didn't enjoy, but I still think it was a decent meal.
Taco Truck Burrito ($16.95) - A Korean spicy pork al pastor with pineapple, chopped kimchi, rice, eggs, and scallions. This was my least favorite dish. I don't think the pineapple worked well with the meat, it was too acidic and pineapple doesn't taste good combined with most things. My husband didn't like this dish at all.
The last dish we got was their Ube Lava Pancakes ($14.75) - Buttermilk pancakes, ube syrup, toasted coconut, berries. My husband thought the pancakes were made with ube, not smothered in an ube sauce, which tells me he didn't read the description too well. This was pretty good. A little to sweet for my liking, but I liked it the most out of the three dishes we bought. We think the syrup was made with condensed milk and I'm not a fan of coconut but really enjoyed the shavings on top. The berries on top were three raspberries.
This place isn't suited for big parties, but for a more intimate or family setting. Parking can be found on Narbonne, or there's some residential area's nearby where you may be able to find something. Otherwise, Lando's hair salon isn't too far by and they have a parking lot - You just gotta walk about five or six doors down.
