Best WLM Reviews

The best breakfast food in LA. This has a beautiful ambiance in the back and the custom service is amazing. You must try this restaurant. The food is made to order and is hot. Everything I've tried has been outstanding They have eggs and meat options and pancakes and french toast plates , breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, pork chop plate, salmon croquette plate, omelettes, shrimp and grits, home fries and so much more and yummy homemade strawberry lemonade. Must go and see for yourself. Love it!!!
Ambiance: I got my order to go. The place is right on the street, you order outside at the counter, and if you'd like, there's seating outside in the back. Limited parking.
Service: The line was short when I got there and varied throughout my wait. They were pretty nice, though our interaction was short. The wait was about 25 to 30 minutes for the breakfast sandwich and 2 sides, so either order ahead or be patient.
Food: I really wanted to love this place because the reviews looked amazing. I wasn't really impressed. It was a decent meal, but it lacked a lot of flavor, the sandwich didn't have any sauce/spread, the potatoes had too much garlic, and the grits needed butter salt and pepper. It all looked amazing, but the taste didn't live up.
I love The Breakfast Shack! We get food from here often. Food always comes out hot and fresh! I am in walking distance and I love supporting local businesses over big chains. I do wish they had a pager system of some sort for when your food is actually ready. It can be a bit much when you have less than a minute drive thinking you can pay and go but still end up waiting. I have no problem waiting for good quality food though! Which is what they have. I would just prefer to wait at home. I will continue to frequent The Breakfast Shack!
Hands down one of the most FLAVORFUL breakfast experiences EVER! I’m a home chef and breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Food was cooked to perfection. Pork chops juicy, grits smooth creamy and LUMP FREE!!! And the FRUITY PEBBLE FRENCH TOAST goes CRAZY!!! I had the honor of meeting the owner/chef Brittany and her daughter and she shared her story with me and my family…truly humbled and grateful to have had the opportunity to taste a bit of her dream! Passion, talent and love all in one bite right in the middle of what some would call ‘the hood’ ????
Y’all really don’t understand what you’re missing out on if you haven’t been here.
The food is amazing. Like beyond amazing. There are so many different meat options to choose from and the consistency in the flavor and everything is top tier, especially for a small business. I usually get a breakfast burrito with hot links and it hits every time. I got the breakfast sandwich today with the home fries and I just don’t understand what they’re doing to make their food so good ???? it is definitely a hidden gem. Better than more popular places you’ll find around LA
The people are amazing. They are so sweet and friendly and every time I call to order they know it’s me and we always have a little chat when I pick up the food. They have a dining area in the back that’s blocked off and cozy.
Definitely call in to order because the wait times can be long but honestly it has never been an issue for me to wait for quality food especially when I know it will be good every time. I really can’t overstate how good this place is and makes me happy we have something so good like this in the hood.
I probably wouldn’t be back. The food wasn’t that good and the wait time was close to 45 minutes. My burrito was just with hash browns, veggies, and turkey bacon. The hash brown was greasy and they didn’t have fresh salsa for it.
A local "hidden gem"! The absolutely best hash browns and grits I've ever tasted "no cap". Don't let me start on the breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito my go to order. The main attraction here is the delicious shrimp & grits, did I mention the flavored coffee is FREE! JUST ASK FOR IT. (If you're really hungry ask for the "Sugar's Special" 2 eggs, hashbrowns, grits, bacon, sausage biscuits and side of pancakes).
Enjoy!
Delicious hot breakfast in south LA! Classic morning favorites with a flare of comfort with the soul food staples. Cannot express how good my eggs over medium, grits and fluffy biscuit were - and a free small coffee!
So so good!
