Tuscan Son Cafe — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I’m a big fan of Tuscan Son. My girlfriend and I live in the neighborhood and stop by frequently, sometimes for a meal, for croissants and morning rolls, or for their terrific desserts. Service is always friendly and charming. Atmosphere is casual — you order at the cashier and they bring the food to your table. No beer or wine. Bring your own. I’m a HUGE fan of their breakfast sandwiches. I get mine with bacon, ham, and an egg over-easy. They add arugula, sundries tomatoes. They make it perfect every time. They also make a version with a spicy chorizo sausage that looks very good. The rosemary breakfast potatoes on the side may be the best in the city. Their rigatoni in meat sauce is done just right. The chef/owner is a native of Tuscany and it shows in that sauce. I also like the hanger steak a great deal. They have a nice assortment of baked goods — all made in-house and all well worth the calories. I love the Linzer tart, the chocolate fudge cake is decadent. The cookies are always fresh. The prices aren’t cheap but you always get your...

I recently discovered this place when i was searching for the best lemon bars in LA. I went in and picked up a lemon bar and then i noticed their other baked goods that looked amazing and decided to get a slice of their Nutella coffee cake and their almond and beery tart as well. They were so amazing that i instantly became a customer and went back there again i recently bought 8 different types of their baked goods when i had a friend over and here is the verdict. Overall review for this cafe is 5 stars without a doubt. My search for the best lemon bar in LA hasn't ended, but so far theirs own over everything else including some of those I tried from famous bakeries. Do not leave this place without taking a slice of their Nutella coffee cake and their almond berry tart. They are absolutely amazing. I also tried their cream cheese muffin, strawberry bar, Nutella cheesecake and carrot cake. Those were good as well, but my least favorite was the nutella cheesecake. Bottom line: this cafe is a gem and my new obsession. Keep up the...

I didn’t want to write a review because this place is a gem that should not be exploited for trend. Took my mother here for her 65th birthday dinner on 9/24 and it was hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in recent memory. From the delicious food, Al fresco dining atmosphere, wonderful patrons and the stellar award-winning worthy Very Berry Marscapone Cake by pastry chef Mateo, Tuscan Son is a gift to the Los Angeles dining scene. But my last compliment goes to Jonathan and his fellow server- with ease, kindness, and recommendations to boot, he handled the never ending line of guests and orders and was able to serve us and make our dinner special through it all from first course to last. No attitude, not flustered just pure professional! To the owner(s) you should be proud to know your restaurant is in capable and outstanding hands. Cannot wait to return...
