Reviews
I stopped by Urth Caffé in the Arts District after walking around the area for a bit. The place was busy but still had a relaxed vibe. I ordered a Spanish latte and a breakfast sandwich, and both were good without feeling overhyped. The coffee was smooth and not too sweet, which I liked. The outdoor seating was probably my favorite part since it felt nice to just sit and people-watch for a while. Service was a little slow during the rush, but the staff were still friendly. Overall, it’s a solid café if you want a comfortable spot to hang out, grab coffee, and take a break from the city.
Me and my friend visited this location this past Saturday for the first time. I ordered an avocado toast, which doesn’t come with any protein and the toast is way too thick for me. They are generous on the avocado but it was a bit much for me. I would rather have a thinner bread and and nice avocado spread instead of smashed avocado chunks. I paid extra $3 for a single egg but it was a small egg they should at least give out 2 for that price. I order an iced matcha. It was good but sweet. Id ask for less sweet if I ever go again. My friend ordered a turkey sandwich I think his was $24 dollars, and a strawberry lemonade. The drink was good. The sandwich had a thick bread it was hard to get a good bite. When I asked for an egg after I got my plate they were fast, I didn’t have to return to the line to pay for it and the manager was nice.
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 the other hand had generous amount of sticky, sweet pecans and the bun had a chewy texture with dates sprinkled within. Surprised by both buns with different textures though they don’t look like much... For the full review and details of our 5 months Round The World (RTW) travels, visit 2bearbear today!
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. Not Urth’s fault, but it’s part of the experience here, so worth mentioning if you’re planning a visit. Despite that, I’ll say this — I’ll still keep coming back. Urth Caffé remains one of my go-to breakfast spots, and even with a minor miss this time, the quality and consistency are still there. If you’re downtown and craving a proper breakfast, this place is still a safe bet. Just plan ahead for parking — or be ready to pay.
Tasty egg panini was great. Exactly what I needed and filling for hours. I’ve had way better matcha latte, wouldn’t get it again here.
