On a beautiful, sunny L.A. day, there is nothing quite as relaxing as a leisurely lunch at the Alcove, Los Feliz’s quaint and eminently trendy cafe. Housed in a historic bungalow with an ample courtyard seating area, Alcove has a big following of fans who appreciate its tasty salads, sandwiches and large and inviting dessert display. (The various layer cakes, tarts, pies, brownies and cookies... more

Narrow brick pathways wind through a maze of tables in this outdoor haven for sleepy screenwriters and other local hipsters. The garden features shaded tables under big green umbrellas, where customers wait with their order number. Dishes include classic cobb salad with Point Reyes blue cheese and applewood smoked bacon, or grilled sandwiches such as the Brie and apple panini made with Granny... more

Sometimes all it takes is a strong cup of coffee, a farm-fresh omelet and a fabulous leafy courtyard to make a Saturday (or any) morning perfect.

This courtyard cafe, shaded by trees and lined with flowering plants, quickly fills with chatty locals. Inside the small bungalow, hardwood floors, antique furntiture and pastry-filled glass cases set a comforting... more

Know Before You Go

Snagging a table can be a bit of a sport on weekends. Your best bet is to send someone in your party to scout out a spot while the others wait to order. Don't forget about the tables on either side of the bungalow.

Editorial Reviews from the web

Eastsiders flock to Los Feliz's favorite garden patio for casual gourmet eats, fantastic sweets and an always-festive atmosphere.

In Short Inside the quaint brick bungalow, the feel is definitely European bistro--murals, marble tabletops and display cases teem with gorgeous cakes (of the layer, bundt and cheese variety) , pies, tarts, cookies and cupcakes. Patrons line up to order at the counter before the somewhat daunting task of scouting out a coveted outside table. On weekends, the breakfast and lunch... more

Sublime bakery exceeds expectations. Build eggs by your own mad design or go ranchero. Ideal hangover food and spot to detox. Chow brie and Granny Smith apples on a baguette before digging into a lamb burger. Those who wake up in this 'hood before 3pm sit outdoors. Ice-grill that cooler-than-thou, alterna-honky tonk, Ron Wood haircut i-Tunes DJ and be out. You wanna see a real cobrasnake,... more

We've been here twice now. Love the little brick bungalow and the outdoor patio setting is fantastic. Both during our weekday lunch and Easter Sunday lunch, there was a long line but it moved quickly, the guys who were in charge of seating us did so very efficiently (why can't all restaurants use their method?), food arrived very quickly for the size of the crowd, and the service was... more

Takes an hour+ to get your food. Served us a RAW burger

I have never been to this place and not waited over an hour for my food. We waited for an hour and twenty minutes for a burger and a sandwich this weekend.

When the food finally came, the burger was severally undercooked, ALMOST RAW. And the manger refused to refund our money because the person I was with had eaten a third of it before she realized.

My sandwich came with the wrong side item... more
