Crema's Take
“Gjusta is a full-service bakery and brunch destination where the pastries and house-made breads are so exceptional that regulars come back for the croissant French toast and sourdough baguettes alone, yet the kitchen proves equally capable with savory dishes like tender brisket hash and shakshouka. The bar seating experience and outdoor patio create the kind of unhurried, beautiful atmosphere that turns a breakfast run into an actual event, making it worth the pilgrimage even if you don't live nearby.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

My absolute favorite brunch spot in LA!! Even though it’s a bakery it’s not only about the bread. The shakshouka was spot on and the brisket in the banh mi was just so tender and juicy. The outdoor seating is perfect for a sunny day. There’s a lot of veggie options as well. Just…
