République in LA offers a chic, vibrant atmosphere with modern French cuisine and famed pastries, perfect for any meal.
"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
"A bustling Los Angeles restaurant known for its French cuisine and lively atmosphere." - Rebecca Roland
"Epic, decadent meals featuring caviar, truffles, and uni." - Eater Staff
"Available on the daytime lunch menu only, the burger at Republique is a classic thick patty bistro affair. It’s served on a golden brown bun that holds together layers of dry-aged beef, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and house sauce. On the side, well-salted shoestring fries and a ramekin of ketchup complete the meal." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
"Republique wears a lot of hats, some of them better than others. But one thing that’s not up for debate is Republique’s reputation as a pastry powerhouse. You won’t find a more attractive display case anywhere in LA, with tiered rows of custardy Basque cheesecakes, chocolate tarts with shiny ganache, and pain au chocolat piled on top of each other like fluffy pillows. They taste just as good as they look, and we suggest splurging on a box of these baked goods before they run out after the brunch rush. You can’t go wrong with any of them, but the creme brulee bombolini and sticky caramel pecan brioche are especially good. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore
