What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"Cute little café, coffee was pretty good, though we were a little disappointed with the Eggs Benedict we got. Good Hollandaise sauce, but the eggs were poached to the point of being hard boiled. The ham was also kinda dried out and tough to cut through. Finally the hash browns had a good texture with a mix of crunch and soft potato, but were lacking any seasoning. Usually not too much of an issue since you can use the yolk run off and Hollandaise in with the hash browns for flavor, but with the stiff yolks that wasn't remotely possible."

"I just want to share that I had such a lovely lunch excellent hummus, vegetarian wrap that was out of this world ,full of pesto and flavor. Ariel and Amy were the baristas and they were so helpful and sweet. The whole atmosphere and vibe is so welcoming I can’t say enough… gush, gush. For a writer it is an extraordinary experience with visual tributes to famous writers around the world surrounding you."

"Nice little place with a big atmosphere. Very nice breakfast selection, sandwiches, and beverages. If you feel like "starting early," they have a full bar with cocktails, beer, and mimosas. Place is decorated in true L.A. / Hollywood fashion with pictures of celebrities and artists decorating the walls. Good place to peacefully eat breakfast and possibly do a little work at the same time. I recommend 👌🏻"

"Literati does the basics well. It’s a nice little brunch spot on the busy Wilshire Blvd. I’ve only had their wraps, but it’s given me a good idea of their quality. I loved the chicken Caesar wrap. The breakfast burrito was solid, It was heavy on the eggs compared to other ingredients, but good enough to where I might order it again. I opted to convert the Turkey Avocado from a sandwich to a wrap, but I think that was a mistake. It definitely would have tasted better on a chiabatta bun. Overall, I’d recommend Literati Cafe. It’s hard for me to justify giving 5-stars to a brunch spot, but nonetheless I’m happy to have this as a close breakfast option."

"Disappointed with our recent visit after a great first visit a few months ago. We arrived for lunch at 2:40, ordered our meals, and went to the outside patio to find a table. As soon as we got outside, the woman cleaning the patio said they close at 3 PM. We said ok and that we were just looking for a place to eat because we already ordered (we were holding out number). She said again that they close at 3. We asked if the patio was closed…asking again if we could eat out here and she said “yes but we close at 3.” Super off-putting considering we already paid for our food. She clearly wanted to leave at 3 and not have us dirty up the patio (which was still being cleaned). Our food arrived so quickly (great), but hash browns were cold. I brought them back to the counter and the guy asked if we wanted them crispier. I said we just wanted them warm. By the time they came back, we were done with our eggs. The hash browns were warm but extra greasy and not good. The Canadian bacon on Eggs Benedict was gristly, too. We asked for more ketchup but never got it, so we went back to the counter to get it ourselves plus salt, pepper, and sweetener for coffee. Listen I don’t mind helping myself that way but not sure what the 20% gratuity is for considering we felt unwelcome, too. It was a fairly underwhelming experience and super disappointing. I would have emailed the restaurant directly instead of posting a review, but there was no contact info on your website."
