LA | Olive & James | My Current Favorite Basque Cheesecake 🧀🍰

In a city full of solid Basque-style cheesecakes, many tend to be fully set in the center—but not the one at Olive & James. Here, you’ll find that perfect, velvety-soft core that truly defines the classic texture. 🤤✨ Rich, creamy, and deeply cheesy, each slice is indulgent yet beautifully balanced. While I’ve had a couple of inconsistent service experiences here, the cake itself keeps me coming back. 🥄💛 A small tip: skip pairing it with their matcha drink (it’s a bit too sweet on sweet). Instead, go for a simple black coffee or an Americano to complement the richness. ☕️🍂 Whether you’re treating yourself or sharing with friends, this is one dessert stop in LA that feels genuinely special. Already planning my next visit—and maybe I’ll try another flavor next time! 🏼📅 #Foodie #LifeAbroad #LAEats #BasqueCheesecake #DessertLover #HiddenGems #SweetTreats #CakeOfTheDay #LAFoodGuide #MustTry
