Restaurants near Crystal Apartment

Best restaurant in Venice. From the food to the service, Gjelina is a must do in LA.

Superfine brunch with kids: breakfast burrito was rated “very tasty,” as were the burger (“this is huge!”), fried chicken sandwich (“very good”), and the kids’ chicken fingers with fries (“these are like *fancy* chicken fingers!”). I had the farro with roasted vegetables and it was tasty and filling - I had enough for leftovers. As for the 4 kids I brought - all plates were clean at the end of the meal! Great atmosphere to chill on the weekend. Football games were on for those interested but kids were fine hanging out and able to run around outside at Runway when they needed to.

The ambience was great, food was delicious. Service was Ok. Our waitress asked us if we wanted our burrito wet or dry. We asked her if she can explain what it looks like as a wet burrito. She said we can get either green or red salsa which she is on the top. We decided to get a burrito, but asked for green and red salsa on the side. when we got the bill we noticed that there was a $3.50 fee for each salsa, green and red (probably approximately less than 1/4 of a cup. I wish I would’ve known, for $7.00. I could’ve bought an entire jar from Costco’s. Don’t order the salsa before asking additional. That was disappointing.

Great dinner as always. Our favorite waiter, Geoffrey, took excellent care of us and the kitchen delivered as usual. Love it here. Even the valet, Allen, was attentive and friendly. Will come back again and again!

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been to the R&B Brunch. Always a good time!
