"Unlike Tartine’s original (and now closed) location at The Row DTLA, Tartine Sycamore in Hollywood is alive and well - and settling in as the casual cafe the area desperately needed. The menu is filled with solid dishes like the smoked salmon tartine and the spicy chicken sandwich, not to mention excellent pastries - the bacon and chive savory scone is our favorite. Though the space can definitely get crowded during peak lunch hours, there always seems to be a spare table open for you and your laptop." - brant cox, brett keating
