We went here for breakfast because my daughter wanted to give it a try. We got up early so we could walk in when they opened. The variety of pastries was astounding and amazing. We tried four pastries, and they were all quite good. We also ordered breakfast. The food is so good. I would go there again and just have pastries and coffee. You could not go wrong with anything here. There was a line by the time it opened and it stayed that way until we left.

The best French restaurant I’ve ever been to! The baguette is a must try– freshly baked with the right amount of crispiness and chewiness. I like how they pair savoury flavours with sweet flavours via fruits like peaches; it makes the dish a lot more interesting and most adventurous for the taste buds. The duck is also very delicious as the skin was crunchy but the meat was tender. The corn ravioli is soft with a burst of corn flavours (I would recommend paying extra for truffles because it really puts the whole dish together). The ambience mimics France: upon entering, it’s as if you entered a house. If you ever visit LA, this is a fantastic spot to have lunch or dinner.

This is a very large restaurant with many workers hustling all over the place. The food was very good and introduced us to something different. All dishes were very good including the corn pasta and the truffle appetizer. Two of the dishes, the cheek meat and the soft shell crab, were good but both were way too salty (not the crab, but the rice it came with the crab was very salty). All in all, it was a very pleasant experience.

This was my second time there. We went there for weekend brunch. Arrived at around 10am, and there were only a few people ahead of us. But by the time we left (around 11am), there was a very long line. I really liked all the food we ordered, and they all came pretty quickly. It was a very casual and lively ambiance. Recommend!

This is an upscale French restaurant, but it’s definitely worth visiting.

On our most recent trip to L.A., we stopped at Republique for brunch. We loved it so much we ended up going back twice more. That should tell you everything you need to know!

I took my family to République Café Bakery & République Restaurant about a week ago. I was there 5 mins before the restaurant opened up. We were very excited since we had heard so many great things about their service and food.

This is a brunch review! Note that dinner is a different chef. We parked at the paid parking at la brae tarpits and walked the half mile. The line was to the end of the block and took about thirty minutes as it moves quickly. You place your order at the pastry counter and the food comes quickly which means the tables turn over faster than an order at the table style restaurant. The selection of food, both pastries and brunch is diverse and playful. While there are classic dishes even those have twists. For example the classic eggs and meat breakfast has “bacon steak” vs sliced bacon. (It was spectacular if your okay with plenty of fat). My potato pancake was like no other and hit the mark for interesting and delicious. Simply put, this was the best breakfast I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot of breakfasts! Service was really good. Remember you order at the counter on the way in and then it’s open seating with both indoor and outdoor options. Bus and waiter staff were frequent and fast and super friendly. I came away feeling the lunch team really were concerned that you got the best meal experience they could offer. Small item but I always take my coffee with sugar but this coffee was so good I skipped the sugar. My suggestion is go here for both the culinary adventure and a trendy meal experience.

A historic venue often requiring a wait during peak times. Excellent range from hot dishes to desserts. Their coffee is uniquely delicious. The kimchi fried rice with two runny eggs is a standout. The blend of rice, beef, and egg is heavenly.

Fabulous. The ambiance buzzes with the joy of life. Service is only a 4 b/c you basically serve yourself, however the staff is certainly fab. Would rate higher if it was full service. Food is great, albeit inflated in cost for being in LA. At some point, the more expensive the food is, the worse it begins to taste. I realize it is probably the cost of doing business, but an omelette is just an omelette..
