Excellent place on main Street in Santa Monica. Had the pesto chicken sandwich on a French baguette it was delicious. Ordered a large cafe latte extra hot and it was perfect. Andrew knows how to make a latte to perfection.I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant. Great good awesome staff and very very clean establishment.

Wow! First, the food is amazing. Large portions, reasonable prices, but it’s the flavor that will have you lining up for more. There’s something for everyone. I had the Peruvian Saltino with steak which was amazing. El Koreano with tofu was another big hit - they don’t skimp on the tofu and they know how to sear it to perfection. There is dining inside and on the heated patio. Main Street just got a huge upgrade.

This was probably the tastiest and healthiest meal I’ve had during my 2-week vacation in the US. I chose the Green Earth Burger and it was a bliss! Fresh ingredients, slightly spicy sauce and soft bun: the perfect combo for lunch in the sunshine.

El Koreano rice bowl and sustainable salmon salad bowl were incredible! Fresh ingredients and full of flavors. I love how 3 cultures inspired the menu. There’s so much to try so definitely excited to come back!Also tried the strawberry glitz refresher! Perfect balance of sweet and tart.Thank you for your amazing service!! Such friendly staff. 😊

A terrific restaurant in Santa Monica. It is rare to find great service, cleanliness, and good prices in Los Angeles, but you can find that all here. Great variety, I highly recommend.

My pork bahn mi sandwich was very tasty, and a good portion size for the cost. I had leftovers. The employees were SO friendly, and the space felt fresh, airy, and spacious.Excited to come back here and try more items on the menu. It was expansive and everyone I ate with enjoyed their different dishes.

I came in flustered and on an empty stomach at 4p. I was in no position to make decisions for myself.Andrew was my hero. He masterfully walked me through my order and I ended up with a juicy and flavorful pesto chicken sandwich.Will be back, if for no other reason, Andrew’s incredibly customer service. What a gem.

Im guessing theres nothing bad on the menu. My boys burger was the best he ever had. Theres a great selection of teas both hot and cold. My wife has a latte while I had a mocha. Both were superb. I cant wait to go back.

NOT HEALTH NOR ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS PLACE:Don’t be fooled as their marketing says otherwise…Eating here i just contributed to the world’s plastic waste problem. We dined in still got huge single plastic cups and straws.Upon arrival I asked about the oil they use as many restaurants running their establishments strictly as a business 🤑using the cheapest oil such as canola or palm oil that have linked to serious health risks along with environmental issues. The answer was they just switched rosting their vegetables in palm oil. They clearly have no concerns about their customers’ health nor about the environment. Cheapest kitchen salt, cheapest ingredients.I have zero trust eating here, drinking e.g. their lemonade which is labeled with “maple syrup” but really corn syrup with some maple… no thank you!

This place was pleasantly surprising. Yummy fresh food, fast nice service and relaxed vibe. Definitely will come back the veggie bowl and California burrito were excellent.

Really delicious, healthy food beautifully prepared. BUT Ive been twice and both times, the staff were much more focused on chatting among themselves than on serving the customers i.e. ignoring the people waiting at the counter to give their orders. And both times, they have brought the two plates to the table about 15 minutes apart. Admittedly, this is a pet peeve of mine, but when one is a salad, why wouldnt you just keep it in the kitchen and serve both customers together? Getting two cappuccinos to go took over 20 minutes, made one after the other. When I told the manager that the food was excellent, but that the service was inordinately slow, he did not take it well, getting defensive and aggressive. Not good.

Good: Atmosphere, close to beach, friendly staffBad: The food. We got a California and Asian Burro, it was really bland. The entire burrito was protein + rice / potato and had no veggies. There was little to no seasoning.

If you were planning to eat at Urth Caffe on Main Street in Santa Monica, don’t, and go to Rabano instead. There’s no line and the food is WAY better. Lots of options on their menu, good quality and the outdoor patio is dog friendly :)

Sometimes you stumble upon excellence and that’s precisely what I did this afternoon at Rabano. I will be eating here at least once a week. This place is a Swiss Army knife of delight - the menu variety, food quality, fast service, incredible vibes, and good crowd. The edamame wontons literally made me black out they were so tasty. If you have a loved one, bring them here. If you have an enemy, please don’t tell them about this place because we CANNOT afford to compromise this treasure of an establishment. I can’t wait to get buzzed at pregames and tell everyone about how good it is. Only downside, they don’t allow cigs inside but I totally get that. Hope you all, my dear readers, get to try this place soon. Tell em Kyle sent ya!
