Yeastie Boys — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had—and I’m from Queens.

As a tough customer raised in Queens, New York, I don’t hand out praise easily—but Yeastie Boys blew me away. We visited the Melrose truck, and it was next-level.

I had a cheddar bagel stacked with sausage, bacon, pastrami, and a crispy hash brown—heavy and heavenly. My son went with an everything bagel with egg, cheese, bacon, pastrami, and his too was made heavy with a hash brown, plus a fresh strawberry lemonade that was super refreshing.

Flavor? Unmatched. The bagels had the right chew, the meats were bold and juicy, and every bite was pure satisfaction. They’ve earned the hype.

Only thing I’d change? The customer service. The food was amazing, but the vibe at the truck could be warmer. I totally get that they’re busy and have a huge following—but it doesn’t hurt to be kind and friendly to your customers.

Still—if you’re in L.A., this is a must. Just be ready to order fast and eat...

I came upon this Food Truck (located outside Alfred Coffee) on the tony Melrose Pl. after Googling “Breakfast Sandwich” and deciding that $15 for a breakfast Burrito at Alfred was not worth it. So instead I paid $12 for a Jalapeño breakfast sandwich and noted their credo - it’s all about the bread (I’m paraphrasing)

After 10 years of living in NYC, I’m skeptical of all food, let alone an LA bagel shop - is nothing sacred anymore??

That said, after one bite I was hooked. A delicious blend of hot and eggy, and yes - yeastie. My opinion (not that I care, but you should) is bolstered by the number of uber eats/seamless/postmates delivery pick ups that occurred while I was waiting for my bagel haven. I counted 4 in 7 minutes.

Highly recommend, will return, and I’ll be sure to capture a photo next time....

I got the Diss Track, a hashbrown, and the strawberry lemonade, plus a pound of cream cheese for home.

The Diss Track was SO DRY. The pastrami was dry as hell with NO flavor? How is that even possible? There was supposed to be sauce on the sandwich, and there was a tiny amount on top, but not enough to cover the dryness or blandness overall.

The hashbrown was $4 for an unseasoned cold puck.

The lemonade was okay, but also not worth the price considering how small it is.

Maybe other locations of this brand/restaurant are better,l, I don't know. But this place sucks. And I'm out the money now on a meal I wouldnt...
