"Given the long lines that form almost every day, Republique isn’t just one of the best places to get weekend brunch, it’s one of the best restaurants in Los Angeles. What certainly helps is the glorious building once operated as Charlie Chaplin’s offices, and later as iconic LA restaurant Campanile. The Old World look combines an internationally inspired daytime menu featuring a fantastic burger, buttery brioche French toast, savory shakshuka, and a very solid kimchi fried rice. Perhaps the biggest draw, however, is the incredible breads and pastries conceived by James Beard Award-winning pastry chef Margarita Manzke." - Eater Staff
