WAKE AND LATE
105 East 6th St, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“This LA favorite has earned serious devotion for their house-made tortillas and cilantro crema sauce that elevate their breakfast burritos into something truly special, though portions and seasoning can be inconsistent depending on who's assembling yours. The fresh-squeezed orange juice and perfectly grilled accompaniments show real attention to detail, and the genuinely sweet staff creates a warm, welcoming vibe that keeps people coming back despite the premium pricing. It's a spot where the best days deliver transcendent breakfast, even if some visits land closer to solid-but-not-spectacular.”

I ordered a breakfast burrito w bacon. SALTIEST burrito I’ve ever had in my life. Not only is it overpriced but so small. If I’m paying $18 for a burrito I expect it to be $18 worth of food. My friends and I all had the unfortunate experience of having acid reflux the whole day after eating this. You’re better off eating ihop if you’re going to get scammed by a bfast establishment.
Literally the BEST breakfast burrito I ever had. We got a steak burrito and loved it so much! Also their sauces, freshly squeezed orange juice were all amazing 🤤🧡 The staff is super nice and sweet as well!
Their breakfast burritos are SO GOOD!! I’ve heard about Wake and Late as one of the best LA-style burritos and it truly lived up to all the talk. Especially their cilantro crema sauce on the side~ Our server was in great spirits too, and these days, it goes a long way :)
It's mid. And the mid has nothing to do with the small size. The positives: - Great tortilla, grilled perfectly - Eggs are great - Plenty of avocado - Perfectly crunchy tater tots Negatives: - Too much salt - Lack of flavor aside from the salt - The bacon is okay -- the crunch is great, but it's too salty, and the bits are inferior to a strip or two of crispy bacon. Also, it's imbalanced in the burrito, so you get all the bacon on one side and all the avocado on another - Mediocre salsa I didn't finish it. Gave the rest to my Mom. So I don't care how small it is, it just wasn't good enough. It's about $20, which would've been worth it if it was amazing. Orange County has way better breakfast burrito spots.
Do not miss out on this spot. Easily my favorite breakfast place of all time. I don’t even like burritos—and theirs are to die for. The tortillas are chewy, fresh, and absolutely perfect. Highly recommend the steak burrito—it’s hands down the best thing on the menu. Every bite is savory, crispy, and chewy in all the right ways. And the cilantro crema? Unreal. Their pastries are pretty good too, so honestly you can’t go wrong. All around, 100% recommend.
