Wake And Late
6334 Selma Ave, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“Wake and Late brings West Hollywood energy to breakfast with creative signature drinks like the Juárez alongside hearty morning fare, though execution seems inconsistent across their kitchen. The aesthetic and concept clearly draw curious visitors in, but recent reviews suggest the $17-18 price point hasn't quite matched the quality and portion sizes guests expect. If you're willing to treat it as an experience stop rather than a reliable everyday spot, their specialty drinks might be worth exploring on your next weekend visit.”

I’m just in West Hollywood for the weekend, but I’m glad I found Wake and Late. I ordered the breakfast burrito and added the Juárez out of curiosity. The breakfast burrito is the move. Crispy tots and bacon that actually stay crisp, avocado that’s perfectly ripe without turning to mush, and a tortilla toasted just enough to hold everything together. It looked good right out of the wrapper and ate clean the whole way through. The Juárez was simple, basically beans and cheese, with onions, sour cream, and green chiles on the side. It’s straightforward but satisfying, especially if you like building the bites yourself with a little heat and creaminess. It felt like a solid, no frills option next to the heavier burrito. If I lived here, I’d come back. For a quick weekend stop, it hit exactly right.
Not worth the hype. If I’m paying $17 for a breakfast burrito, I should be getting a burrito bigger than my hand. Espresso is ok, not the best. Should not be charging this much for a small coffee using a glorified nesspresso machine. Staff was nice and sauces were good, but that’s all that’s going for them. Mediocre at best, will not be coming again.
The saltiest burrito I have ever had. No eggs all hashbrowns the bacon was burnt. You're given a huge box for a small burrito. I spent 18 dollars and change only to throw a burrito away..
Minus 1 star for awful online ordering system which changed the pickup location. I expected to not get charged for the restaurant website mistake after I demonstrated it was working incorrectly so I paid double for a bacon breakfast burrito. The burrito was excellent except it did not have enough egg for a breakfast burrito. It maybe had one egg. It should definitely have 2 eggs. Not the best bfast burrito in LA , but really good, but also very small and not enough egg. Kind of disappointing first time experience since I paid double for already too expensive burrito due to a still malfunctioning website. Not sure if I’ll return. Doesn’t live up to the hype. So close, but Minus 1 star for barely any egg. It’s basically a tater tot burrito that’s wrapped really well. The cilantro sauce is great but almost no egg in a breakfast burrito. Much better local non chain options with 2-3 eggs for breakfast and larger portions for less $. The ladies were very friendly inside the store.
Had seen this place and was curious to try. I did see all the reviews and became a bit hesitant, but still ended up giving it a try. I went with the streak burrito. Once your order you wait a bit and get your order outside. Each burrito comes with a choice of 2 side sauces. Well, I wasn’t disappointed. It was pretty good. It comes with everything I like (meat, eggs, potatoes, avocado). It is on the greasy side. But, even though the burrito wasn’t that big, for everything that was in there, I got full. I loved the flavors. Yes, $19 is on the pricey side - for sure. But, once in a while, I don’t mind coming for a treat.
