Urth Caffe

We took the buns to our tables and waited for our Panini to be served via a number placed at our table. Service was prompt and the panini was sent to our table in about 10 minutes. The panini was nicely toasted and crisp on the outside. It also had a nice cheese pull with the mozzarella. Prosciutto added depth to the taste of the Panini. By itself, the panini was already delicious. Not sure why a salsa (which tasted like tomato-based sauce for pizzas) was served on the side. If there was a tiny complain, we thought at $15+, the panini portion could have been slightly bigger. On the other hand, both buns that we ordered were excellent. You could really taste the rich nutella and cinnamon between the layers of the croissant bun while the slightly crushed hazelnut, added crunch. Pecan bun on

Had the privilege to stop by and check this cafe recently and here it is, the good, this cafe offers a decent selection of coffees, teas, lattes and such, but above all, amazing desserts. The selection of cheesecake or other assorted treats are worth checking out alone. Where it fumbles the ball (in my opinion) is the food category. I'll show photos of the plates I had. One is the short ribs and the other was the Huevos Rancheros, if you can tell which is which from the photos you need to sign up for Scotland Yard or something. My point is , they put more emphasis on presentation than taste. While maybe the meat is well or in my case over salted. Simple things like beans have no taste. So to cut to the point, I don't recommend the location for food, but highly recommend for your dessert fi

This was my third Urth Caffé in the city, and at this point it’s honestly turning into a routine. Same order every time for a reason — Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon. I know what I’m getting. Or at least I usually do. This visit was good… but not perfect. The food overall was excellent, as expected. The salmon was solid, eggs cooked right, sauce on point. No complaints there. The only miss was the bread — something felt off this time. Not terrible, just not at the level I’m used to from Urth. Small detail, but noticeable when you’ve had the same dish multiple times. Now the real challenge: parking. Downtown LA did what downtown LA always does. Finding free parking near this location was almost impossible. I spent about 15 minutes circling before giving up and paying $5 for a paid lot.

Felt like a late bloomer, but I finally experienced Urth Cafe for the first time today 😮‍💨 I can understand what makes it “overrated” lol. The drinks were excellent; the Spanish latte is that of my dreams. But for food, we ordered the Tasty Panini, and the Tortilla soup - which our cashier Sesinando A described as being “basically just soup with avocado in it” - almost deterred us from ordering it all together. He was also rude, and suuuper unhelpful. I think if he had been more informative we might have ordered something that was delicious being first timers, but overall it was just lacking. Loved the drinks, the pastries looked amazing, but the food was mediocre at best.

We had a great first time experience. Coffee and breads were delicious. They have so many options that they’ll have something for everyone. Restrooms were clean. Welcoming vibe from the atmosphere to the people. Will definitely come back. Especially for the breakfast.
