Borekas Sephardic Pastries

I am so happy I came across this yummy spot! I ordered the fungi, onion and truffle for delivery while I was getting an oil change at a dealership nearby. It was absolutely delicious!! The bread was warm and buttery and flaky!! I mixed the chili and tomatoes sauce that made a perfect dipping sauce. Lemonade was refreshing! I look forward to my next oil change so I can be in the area and order from them again haha ☺️

Not even a question - one of best, most unique food spots in LA. Perfectly flaky, spiced, crunchy, salty, delicious Boureka. 10/10. Comes with sides that perfectly complement it. I highly recommend the Ayran too, delicious kefir-like drink.

It opened early yet got busy instantly. I remembered back then when you still couldn't place any online order, the only way to avoid the disappointment for getting them out of stock was to place pre-order via call. Now they have had more outlets, and online pre-order options are even available! They did have some simple sitting area in this outlet for people who wanna enjoy their borekas on the spot. Given the crowd I preferred to have them for to-go. Their Borekas - which were basically Sephardic Jewish and Israeli pastries, were mind-blowing! I didn't wanna waste the opportunity coming all the way hence having multiple items from their menu. My #1 was doubtlessly the cultured cheese and zaatar, which sounded simple yet super flavorful. Strong cheese well complemented by zaatar and further elevated by the wonderfully crispy and yummy pastry. That pastry being so good, honestly could easily be paired with any stuffing and turned out outstanding. I couldn't decide between spinach cheese or fungi truffle being 2 or 3. I even got the chocolate one, which was also super good but I would recommend not skipping the savory ones!

The ultimate breakfast/brunch place. I was going to the Sherman oaks location since they opened, now they’re even closer. The margarita and cultured cheese borekas are absolutely amazing, highly recommend. Great atmosphere and super friendly staff that will make sure you will always leave with a smile. Everything is 10/10!!! Thank you!!

Phenomenal flavor and quality, I have never had a better borek. They make their own homemade flaky pastry that is somehow extremely light, no greasy feel afterwards. Will be coming back again! Amazing service too!

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a long time and I have to say it was worth the drive! The guy at the window was very helpful and explained all flavors in great detail. We went with the cottage cheese and spinach options and will be back to try the rest!

The best Burekas around. Fresh tasty highly recommended.

Lovely spot with shaded outdoor seating. Delicious breakfast borekas you wont find anywhere else. Desserts and coffee were great as well. Great service and good vibes. Unassuming hidden gem.

full review on my tiktok @betthanyx- HIGHLY recommend this place! first time trying borekas but I can tell the pastry quality is high. i believe they use aged dough with clarified butter. definitely try their traditional flavor, cheese and za'atar (9.5/10). truffle mushroom onion was a bit underwhelming (7/10) but the spinach and cheese was good (8/10)! 14$ each boreka

This is my first one star review on Yelp, and it's kind of a unique situation. I was at Borekas a few years ago, and found the food to be pretty good, though a little overpriced. However, it's a family business, so I'm more happy to pay a little more when it's not just going to a massive corporation. I am also Jewish myself and always like to support Jewish culture, Jewish history and Jewish joy. The last few years have been especially difficult for many Jews around the world, as hate crimes have skyrocketed including here in America. As I type this there was just an arson attack on a synagogue in Mississippi, and last month there was a terrible attack that killed Jews celebrating Hanukkah in Australia. Sephardic Jews specifically have a rich and unique history, with some of them being forced to convert in Spain but keeping their traditions alive despite persecution, and I'm glad to see a proud Sephardic place in my neighborhood. The thing is, the owners of Borekas are my neighbors. We live on the same street, in a neighborhood near the Van Nuys location by Ralphs. I see them out and about all the time. And I've now had two dangerous incidents involving one of the owners, Uzi W (I am only posting individual information here that is already public on Yelp and will not get any more specific about identity). The first incident involved their dog attacking and nearly killing my dog years ago. This was when they first moved into their home on my street, and despite being a traumatic incident, I think it was just a mistake. They later put a fence around their yard and there were no further problems with their dog getting loose. I don't think anything negative was meant by it, and both of our dogs have since passed away. Nonetheless I avoided their house with my dog for years later until her death (she was an old lady Pomeranian and only about 5 pounds). The second incident, and the reason I am here on Yelp, happened yesterday on January 12, 2026. Uzi W in his Jeep ran a stop sign right by our street and nearly collided with me. However, after he looked at me, did he apologize? No. He actually turned his vehicle around and tried to run me over, forcing me to mount the sidewalk. Then he turned his vehicle around once more, revved his engine, and sped at me to try and intimidate me. He stopped and got out of his vehicle and cursed me, threatening to "f---ing kill me" and "I'll beat your a-- p---y". As I left, he ran after me yelling more threats. It was especially confusing because this all began because *he* ran a stop sign. I assume he was embarrassed and this was road rage. But there are no excuses for this behavior. This is on our street. In broad daylight. With other people around. We are neighbors! The incident was so dangerous that I have reported it to the police. The police told me I should have called 911 right after, and if there are any future incidents, I am to immediately call 911 and officers will do a field report. If there are further incidents I may need to press charges or get a restraining order. I am telling you here right now to stay away from me, do not ever threaten me again, and if you use your vehicle to try and hit me or strike me or intimidate me in the future I will immediately call 911. And if I see you running a stop sign again like that which is, I remind you, against the law I will also report it. And you didn't even slow down or look both directions. Our neighborhood is filled with families. You could have hit a child. Every year in LA people are killed in hit-and-runs and in road rage incidents. I'm on a bicycle, you are in a Jeep. It's a very threatening situation. We have dogs, families, kids always in our streets especially in the afternoon. This happened between 4:30pm and 4:45, so I assume you were returning from your work at Borekas. On your website and on your social media, you advertise Borekas not just as a food place, but as a place of culture and history and values. Your Instagram states that you are "G-d first". Yesterday was NOT an example of those values. You should never ever run stop signs or treat anyone like that, it's incredibly dangerous, but to do that on our street like that in broad daylight? We aren't just random strangers to each other. We are neighbors. The only reason I know who you are is because two Jewish friends of mine in the area frequent Borekas. They love your place and you have now lost both of them as customers. I know many of the Jews in our neighborhood and I wouldn't be surprised if we have mutual friends. If you keep behaving this way, it could eventually end in tragedy. Every year we see on the news reports of hit and runs. I know one person who was left for dead in such an incident and I have been hit by cars before in LA, including recently by someone turning at a red light without looking. And if you had struck me, what would you have done? Would you have fled? Would you have left me there injured? I'm outraged.

Good service, fresh food, they got a limited menu which makes it easy to choose. Ordered the cultured cheese & za'atar Lots of interesting and delicious flavors. I think 1 order will fill you up. Comes with boiled egg, pickled cucumber, and 2 different salsas.

Delicious! Both locations are great, but I prefer this one because it has a nice outdoor seating area. Staff is super nice and helpful too! Good is always good, love the mint lemonade too!

Borekas Sephardic Pastries is the kind of place you stop by for a quick bite and end up staying for more. The Borekas are flaky, the fillings are balanced. My favorite, Cultured Cheese & Za'atar, excellent! Even with multiple locations, they've kept the same authentic quality and consistency. Limited casual seating and easy parking.

Amazing boreks very friendly service and good price, good vibes will definitely come back again

Ethnic hole-in-the-walls tend to be some of my favorite. This one is both literally and figuratively that - you order by walking up to a small order window, then sit outside on the patio. How LA of you! How reminiscent of Covid days! The food is the star here. Authentic to a tee. Perfectly Israeli, with just the right trimmings - soft boiled egg, grated tomatoes and Israeli pickles. I still wish the egg would be smushed into the boreka (singular?) like I experienced on visits to Israel. Also, the schug? Weak! Either make your own, better, version; or buy something else. This barely passes for schug.

We were in the area and felt like some.coffee before heading home. We stopped at Borekas and were swept up in pastry goodness arrayed before us. We ordered two of the Turkish Coffees and added a Cultured Cheese and Zatar Borekas as well as a Labane and Zatar Borekas. A festival of tastes exploded as we bit into these savory delights. The cultured cheese and Zatar was constructed with a light flaky pastry shell covered in Zatar surrounding the smooth creamy cheese center. This was tremendous! The pickles, olives, and perfectly boiled egg were perfect accompaniments. The labane and Zatar borekas was equally delicious. The labane was a little more substantial in its texture with a milder taste than the cultured cheese. The flaky pastry shell and Zatar complimented the delectable labane in this great selection. The Turkish coffee was very rich with its traditional mix of finely ground coffee and boiling water. This resulted in a thick satisfying coffee party with every sip. Yum!

Recently discovered this new cuisine and very happy that I did. Here's what I've ordered... Pinukin sandwich: Excellent Borekas (cultured cheese & za'atar, potato and brown butter): Excellent The chili sauce, pickles and hard boiled eggs that come with the borekas makes the whole meal enjoyable. There's only outdoor seating and you place an order at the counter. It's located on noisy Van Nuys Blvd, so I just take it home to eat.

Love this place and I like that this location is in a calmer space than the one on Ventura Blvd. It's also a great spot for drive up pick up. Every boreka I've had is delicious here. My favorites include the cheese and Zataar or the spinach one. I highly recommend buying a jar of pickles to take home and enjoy. I recently tried the egg salad on a boreka which was very good too. This place is great to come with a friend to split and try different ones. The mint lemonade is also very refreshing. HEADS UP, they are closed one Saturdays in observance of the Jewish Sabbath and other Jewish holidays so be sure to check if they're open as they may be closed for holidays such as Passover (where we don't eat leavened bread).

Food was not what I expected. Sitting is reduced to a side of a parking lot. No service.

I love this place so much! Delicious and overall a 10/10. The food is so fresh and the pastry is super flaky it melts in your mouth. I ordered the spinach & feta boreka and the potato. Both were amazing! I love that they come with delicious pickles and eggs!

The same delicious savory pastries as the other location, without the stress of finding parking or getting into the small parking lot! Came by on a Sunday morning to pick up these delicious goodies on my way to watch some football at a friend's house in the valley. I was originally going to hit up their first location, but saw this pop up. So glad I made the choice to come here! Service is pretty much the same. Friendly people you order from at the window and wait for your goods. Everything is neatly packaged and well presented. I got three different flavors, which all came with some boiled egg, plenty of pickles, and some schug (sauce). I got one of each - cheese/spinach, cheese/zaatar, and potato/brown butter. They cut them up so it's highly shareable. Same quality as the other place in my opinion - buttery and flakey with delicious flavors. This spot just feels infinitely more chill than the original location. So if timing/ distance is not a factor, I would opt to come here because the experience is so much easier including the parking. Although getting these goodies from either location is alright by me, haha.

I lived in Israel for a year when I was in college, and I was back for a visit about 10 years ago. I miss Israel terribly. So you can imagine my thrill upon finding Borekas Sephardic Pastries! This place is the real deal. Potato, mushroom, and spinach botekas. Flaky and delicious. The spinach is done with feta cheese. The potato is done with brown butter. Creamy and perfect. Nescafe. Sliced hard boiled eggs and pickles. I feel like I'm back on Ben Yehuda Street in downtown Jerusalem.

I came here on a friend's recommendation and I knew about their infamous wait time as well as the difficult parking situation in the other location. I'm so thankful I came to this location because there was no line and no wait. Best part: parking was easy. The staff were really nice and friendly if we had any questions and luckily all the items on the menu were available, even though the other store may have already sold out of it. It's only 10 minutes away so if you're stuck in a long line waiting for parking in the other location, you can just drive over to this one. The borekas themselves are delicious and I managed to split the different flavors. I even had the seasonal(?) one and that was really good. The tomato, pickle, and egg that they include help complete the meal. I also tried their chocolate boreka and that was a nice dessert after the more savory ones. It's all outdoor seating but likely you won't be hanging around for too long because you'll finish eating up the borekas in a quick second. It's right in front of a busy street but honestly, it's not loud and it's very clean.

I was in the area and never even heard of borekas but dang am I glad I came in to try one. Parking was super easy, they have their own little parking area in the back. You order at a little window in front and get the choice to eat in a cute little shaded outdoor patio area, or to take it to go. My girlfriend and I got the potato and brown butter to share since we were feeling a bit snacky. That sh-- was GAS, it was some of the silkiest potato I've ever had and it came in a super flakey pastry. I don't even know if it had cheese in it but it tasted like it with how creamy the potatoes were. Everything that came with it worked super well with it, especially that chili sauce. I would have been down to get like 4 of them.

I went first thing in the morning to grab some breakfast for my family. As soon as I got there the gentleman at window greeted me with a friendly smile. It was my first time there and I let him know which he gave me time to look over their menu. I end up ordering their spinach and cheese, potato and brown butter, their classic and Margherita Borekas. I made sure to put in the family style which is all of them in one box. All I can say my family enjoy it specially their dill pickle that came as sides. We definitely going back for more.

Finally made it to the Van Nuys Blvd shop after multiple tries squeezing into the Ventura Blvd. location. The wait was worth it for these light, flaky, heavenly pastries. I ordered the cultured cheese with zaatar, and cheese and spinach borekas--then had to restrain myself from buying ALL the savory options. They came packed hot and fresh in a pizza box, loaded with pickles, jammy eggs, dipping sauces, and more. Not surprisingly. I dug into that box even before returning to my car. I've never tasted delicate and delectable food, such as this. Parking is unofficially next door at Ralph's if you're just picking up. There are also a couple of small tables out front. If you plan to take out, I promise you won't make it home with a full box. 100% must try.

I was surprised. And really enjoyed everything. Yes, my wife got pretty much one of each. And I ate them. And enjoyed them. And have returned. I suspect, if you gave them a shot you would too. It's only outside seating on a noisy street. And expect people coming up and bothering you. That's the area. But there's plenty of parking. And the food is worth your attention.

I was really excited to try this place. Food was decent. I live near by so it was convenient for me.

It was a comfortable, homey setup. I loved the music and the food was sooo delicious. The parking was kind of confusing, but I'd definitely do it again to come here!

I love that they opened up a 2nd location in Van Nuys. This place feels less congested to access than the Sherman Oaks location that is crammed into an already tightly fit space in a very busy strip mall. I ordered for pick up in advance and ordered one of each savory to go for my family visiting from out of town. Then I ordered 3x of their other popular savory dishes for my hubby and I. When I called they ask what time you'd like to pick up and you have to prepay over the phone when making the order. I was able to easily pull up and park on Van Nuys Boulevard and the whole transaction took less then 5 minutes since there was no line at this time. The food is immaculate. Savory pastries made to heavily perfection. If you haven't tried them this is a must try kind of place.

Wow wow Even in Israel you can't find such a tasty pastry. You can tell is hand made with high quality ingredients. Try the new flavor Labaneh so good !!

A very tasty Borekas but a little bit too small for the price. The service is good and fast.

First and foremost, I'm so glad Borekas opened another spot in the valley! They might have started as a small establishment but they pack a big punch when it comes to amazing comfort food. Their savory pastries always come out fresh and warm with your choice of 4 different flavors for their popular Borekas. And any way you order it, it always comes with a perfectly seasoned soft boiled egg, pickles, house tomato sauce and hot paste. The combination of all things together in one bite is indescribable as it's the equivalent of a warm hug. The combination of sweet, salty, flaky and tart hits all the right spots on your flavor palette. All times I've waited at the window, the employees are small but extremely nice, helpful with questions about their menu, and very accommodating about getting you your order. This time around, I pre ordered their classic cheese & za'taar (an instant fave) and by the time I got to the window to pickup my order, I decided to try out their boker toast as well since I'm already there. The girl at the window obliged and offered to bring my new order to my car which gave me time to catch up on other things. The boker toast was delish! You can taste the hint of olives from their tapenade hidden under the creamy egg salad. The crunchy bits of the sesame seeds on top and fresh herbs made it stand out from any typical egg salad sandwich. And the sliced and seasoned cucumbers were a nice touch to cut down the richness. Their new location on Van Nuys Blvd is much larger than the original and it's much easier to find parking. It's also convenient for me as it's that much closer to my house. I hope that Borekas stays in business for as long as I'm in the valley. If not, then I hope they follow me or open up many more location in years to come!

If you want a great Borekas fly to Turkey or Israel! Here it is eatable but far from great!

My new addiction! I believe this is the new and second location of Borekas. I have been to both locations and both deliver the same savory flavor. My top two are the original cheese za'atar and the cheese with spinach. The savory pastries pair really well with the hot sauce and the pickles add a juicy crunch. All 4 flavors are buttery and tasty and I appreciate the small menu/selection. They also offer drinks like coffee and teas, I prefer to pair them with coffee. They even sell the tomato sauce, hot sauce and pickles on the side. I am obsessed with the hot sauce! Service is pretty fast, however, I would recommend to order and call in ahead on weekdays because it gets packed!

This place packs a punch a good punch with delicious food admittedly I could eat here every single day of the week but alas, they are closed on Saturdays! They have another location on Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. Quite possible the smallest business establishment I've ever seen but low bald food is fresh and delicious! you can tell these people make food with care. basically it's 100% scratch Kitchen.

I was always eyeing for this pastry for a while, I ordered the boker toast egg salad style spinach and cheese, fungi, onion truffle it's really delicious, ordering it online service is on point and ambience is outdoor seating, lots of parking from the back of the store or next door yes definitely perfect for breakfast or brunch.

Found this spot on Instagram. This unique Middle Eastern breakfast spot in the SF Valley truly lives up to the hype. The ambiance is cozy and vibrant, with beautiful decor that instantly transports you to the Mediterranean. The flavors were authentic, rich, and well-balanced--definitely a step above your typical breakfast. They also have a variety of traditional teas and fresh juices that pair perfectly with the meal. The staff was warm and welcoming, and you can tell they're passionate about the food they're serving. If you're looking for something different from your standard brunch, I highly recommend

Wanted to try something new and every time i wanted to try it was a Saturday when it's closed. I finally had a free Sunday and my partner and I decided to venture to this location. I had no expectations for this place other than it was a Israeli pastry. Thought it would be inside seating but to our surprise it's a walkup window with some outside seating. Ordered the Margherita and egg salad one. Overall just mid. The pastry is kind of flat croissant filled tomato sauce and cheese for the Margherita and a rather bland egg salad for the other with some pickles. I probably won't be back. Rather just have a lox and bagel instead at my local bagel shop.

Food is amazing! Blown away by how they lived up to their sigh of butteriest flakiest bourekas.. Its like biting into a little piece of boureka heaven the only thing is that the serving portion is small for the price. Kinda like would make you think you want more but you then you also consider the price. Its good service because they are very welcoming and friendly even in the midst of the hot summer sun. Although the set up is outdoor dining close to the main street of van nuys blvd. It kinda get a little bit hot in the mid day probably advisable if they put some shade or something. Love their mint lemonade they didnt go cheap on my mint leaves. Over all i love the food just portion of it.

So excited to finally try Borekas! Ever since my friend showed me a photo of her food, this has been on my list to try! The original place is in Sherman oaks, but this just opened up in Van Nuys. I believe a third location is on its way. The menu is fairly simple with more beverage options than food. But I love their simplicity. They have perfected the best Borekas and best jammy eggs! You need to wait a little bit for your food to be prepped, but it's well worth it. They offer single serving box or a family style box too. Their most popular is the potato and brown butter, but I went ahead and ordered three types: the cultured cheese and za'atar, potato and brown butter, and fungi and onion and truffle. I tried all three and loved them. I think if you love cheese, you'll love the cheese and za'atar! But honestly you can't go wrong with any of them. The fresh tomato puree is a perfect pair without overpowering the flavor. The pickles complements the flavor as well. So happy I finally got to try this and hopefully they will open more closer to LA.

Easy parking in the back (much easier than the lot in Sherman oaks) The food is consistently A+ . This is where I come to treat myself. Service is friendly and prompt at both locations. Whatever the raving reviews of the pastries say- I second that. They are amazing. One thing that totally baffles me is that they have their guests sit on crates.... This location DOES have some actual chairs and stools, but they may not be suitable for some elders. I get that it can be a quick / in and out spot, but crates? I wouldn't have guests in my home sit on a crate unless it was all I had. I think this is one simple upgrade that could make a difference in the dining experience. The coffee as well is out of this world! They should open a coffee shop too.

The best spot in LA for borekas. So happy they opened a larger location! My favorite is the spinach and cheese but you have to try all of them! Love how crispy and buttery they are!

Great borekas every time! One of my favorite foods! Highly recommend! This location is not as crowded as the Ventura Blvd location

Absolutely delicious. The best quick easy and filling breakfast in the city. This place is awesome because they give you everything you need wrapped in a box. Your order will come with an egg, tomato dip etc with the borekas and boy do they make a killer boreka here. I've tried every flavor and the zatar, and the truffle were my favorite. They are perfectly baked and staff is extremely friendly. I'm surprised there's not more than just a handful of this chain locations because they are gonna be huge soon!

Stumbled across this place for the first time, while I was grabbing coffee, and wow was I blown away. Ordered the potato with brown butter boreka and it absolutely hit. It came with a perfectly cooked and season hard boiled egg, small crunchy pickle, and a side of what I believe to be a fresh tomato dipping sauce and a spicer tomato(?)/pepper(?) sauce too. It was absolutely excellent. Not being as accustomed to Israeli food, I may be hooked now...

The food is delicious pastries that give you a new taste on food. The service is excellent and very efficient. The ambiance is very pleasant and inviting. This place makes you feel like family and makes a difference. The qualities I like and look for when I go inside. It's not easy trying to keep up the pace. I appreciated the care of service I received but even with a family makes a difference. I highly recommend this place Happy New Year and kindness forward.

Tasted good but overpriced. $14 for a portion size that would be $8 elsewhere. The young man serving me in the morning was friendly.

Enjoyed each of the savory flavors! Luckily we didn't have to wait in a line. Was really good. My favorite was just the regular cheese. It was creamy and good. The pickles were great. The eggs were good. The tomatoe was a good touch! The regular lemonade and mint lemonade was refreshing. Would definitely go back!

LOVE this place!!! To say I've been obsessed since I discovered it would be an understatement. I tried their original location three weeks ago and have been three times since! I should try their other flavors but I love the Za'atar one so much I don't feel the need to! My least favorite thing about the original location is the parking. It shares a parking lot that's always packed. This location also has a free parking lot but it has sooo many open spots! There is actual covered outdoor seating at this location, too, not just milk crates next to low tables (there is no indoor seating at either location). There are eight outdoor tables with actual chairs! I was worried the food wouldn't be as good at the new location but thankfully that fear was assuaged when I tried it. As good as the original! Love this location and the food so much!!! I can't wait until I'm in the area again!

Located in what used to be the old Four N Twenty diner, Borekas is a nice, new addition to Auto Row. Happy for the company that they've added an another location, the other being on Ventura Blvd. And like the Ventura Blvd location, this new spot is walk up service only. But here, you can order from the window and have the option to take your food to go, or to sit on their patio - a feature the Ventura location doesn't really have. We ordered the Spinach & Cheese, and Potato & Brown Butter savory pastries. It took around 10-15 mins to get our orders. Both were very good, but the potato was our favorite. Both of our pastries came with pickles, boiled eggs, tomato pulp (literally just blended tomato), and a spicy sauce called schug (very tasty). If you're wanting these pastries but want to avoid the chaos of the Ventura location, come support this secondary location and get some tasty food! Limited street parking in front, as well as in the small parking lot behind the shop.

BOREKAS! Conveniently located near all the car dealerships and a Carwash. So fresh and delicious ordered one of each for the family and a jar of pickles and a Turkish coffee. Truly delicious if you know what a good Boreka is.

Savory and sweet pastries with nice libations. Like being transported to another place.

Insanely tasty. 10/10 Choices are small and limited however it is because they know what they are doing! Small wait and prices were fair for the size. The staff was friendly and helpful when I had questions about how most kids "dig in" I love the amount of vegetarian options and they even make vegetables fun! My top one is the mushroom :)

This small business serving borekas in the Valley is not small at all when it comes to flavor, creativity, and popularity. I sadly did not grow up eating borekas as a Sephardic Jewish person and in fact had not heard of them until finding this cute spot. These borekas are by far the most perfectly flaky and soft pastries filled with subtle flavors. I love that they come with perfectly cooked soft-boiled eggs, pickles, and a fresh tomato puree and spicy sauce. It feels like an experience opening their boxes. The pastries feel light too which I appreciate. I tried the chocolate boreka too and thought it was so unique and flavorful. The yogurt dipping sauce absolutely made this dish by adding a perfect tartness to the subtly sweet chocolate. Overall this a great spot for breakfast, lunch, or for just a snack!

Really glad to see the business expand to a second location! We're big fans of these Borekas! The pastry is always perfect and there really is no "bad" option for filling. Great way to start the day off plus it's very reasonably priced. If I had to choose, I'd say the potato option is my favorite, but it's a tough choice. Added bonus with the new location -- outdoor seating!

I've been wanting to try Borekas for a while. When I saw the Van Nuys Blvd location had better parking and better seating, I figured I might as well head there. The parking was so convenient and easy. The location is really cute with just a window and quite a few tables on the covered patio. I ordered ahead and it was almost ready when I arrived. I got the cheese with zatar. I absolutely loved everything about this meal - a cheese-filled pastry, eggs, and pickles?! A delight! The sauces were also really tasty. I went for the first time this past Tuesday and I'm heading there again tomorrow. Can't wait to try another one of the flavors!
