Reviews for République Café Bakery & République Restaurant in Los Angeles, CA

Went for Brunch, it was a long line so mentally prepare to wait ~40 min during prime hours. The line goes quicker if you don't... plan on grabbing pastries but they're almost the best part! Brunch was good, the menu is quality over flair, everything on themenu sounds basic (i.e regular breakfast) but the quality of ingredients and execution more than make up for it. Read more

Street parking still readily available before 930am but after that it’s fills up quite fast. Valet parking is provided just... before the restaurant for a small fee. The restaurant is quite lovely and the dining area is bright and welcoming. When you walkin all the pastries catch your eye and there’s a lot to choose from. Food is generally good and the coffee is strong. Serviceis best described as brutally efficient. The staff are there to deliver the food, clear them and nothing much else. They willquickly turn the table around so the next set of guest can take a seat. Great in its own way I guess. Read more

The food, service and ambiance are truly divine! The BLT Benedict came with the best poached eggs. Every ingredient has its own... flavor and when you combine them all in one bite, it’s like a symphony. Pastries are flawless. We picked several differentkinds and they are all top-notch. We came 5 mins before they open, there was already a line outside(weekday). Counter service,order everything at the register, choose your bakery stuff and the staff will bring your hot food and drinks over. Read more

One of the better dining experiences I’ve had in LA - a must try. Enjoyable atmosphere that is both intimate and lively with... good lighting. The service is great, you’re frequently checked on, refilled, and given new silverware & plates for eachcourse by an array of servers. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and the ingredients, as well as the historyof the building. Most importantly, the food was incredible. All of the flavors were absolutely amazing, everything cooked toperfection. Each course was consistent in its execution! If you’re a foodie, this place is for you. Read more

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Los Angeles. There is a variety of pastries freshly baked to choose from. You can order... breakfast as well. We tried the Smoked Salmon Toast and couple of pastries including Danish and Cheese cake. The waiters wereamazing. The place is big so you will find tables. There is valet service. Highly recommended! Read more

Overall experience was great, the interior lay out is pretty unique,a great place for photos. I ordered a Today’s quiche and a... Croque Madame. The ingredient’s quality are high, but flavor profile was not my cup of tea. Their flavor is more on the blandside. I was expecting the savory ham to stand out when I bite into the sandwich. However, the grease from the cheese and thetoasted bread coated my taste buds before I can taste the ham. The side salad was a bit too acidic with the combination ofshallots, sea salts, and lemon juice. This is a great place for people who pursues simple flavors and extremely freshingredients. Read more

Delicious pastries and breakfast. Service was quick and attentive. The line was understandably long, but kept moving along. It... is busy on Saturday mornings. Plan to wait in line for at least 25 minutes. Silverware is given out by request instead of beingleft on the table, cleanliness is not a concern. The lobster omelette, chia seed pudding and the ricotta toast were yummy. Thefruit tart was great, but the spherical, puffy pastry with the chocolate filling was dense and average. Read more

Overall a wonderful experience! They were very accommodating from the beginning when we were running late to our dinner... reservation and we were seated very quickly afterwards. The ambiance is a beautiful relaxed vibe that certainly feels like youare outdoors. Can get a tad noisy. The food and service overall were great. We got the baguette with pan drippings, lettucesalad, scallops, grilled prawns, and duck. The warm baguette was delicious - though I wish they had served it alongside thesalad so I didn’t have to stuff myself with bread first until we finished all the bread… so I was already a bit full tofully savor and enjoy the rest of the dishes. The salad was very delicious! The avocado slices in there were the perfecttexture and freshness. The scallops were good, but I thought could have used a bit more searing. The prawns were so tasty and Iloved the slightly charred taste - however not a personal fan of the prawn eggs that were attached to all the prawn pieces (somefolks may love them, just not my thing). The duck was good, but didn’t think it was remarkable, and again my personalpreference was for it to be cooked a little bit more (and maybe I should’ve said that to the waiter previously so I don’tfault them for it). Overall a pleasant and casual vibe, great place for date nights. Read more
