Absolutely obsessed with their THAI BASIL STEAK sandwich! I love the pickled veggies and I wish they put more! Highly recommend. Rate: 100000/10I also got a blueberry matcha latte with oat milk, but I feel like the blueberry is so light. The matcha itself was good. Rate: 7/10 I want to try the strawberry foam matcha latte next time.Service was pretty quick! Workers are sweet too! There's table inside and cute merch you can buy.

Faregrounds Beverly Hills is located on Roxbury Drive. Perfect spot being close to a lot of medical offices nearby. The food item choices is that of a cafe style aesthetic. The ambiance is of a sterile modern setting. The staff is very friendly, and I love the plant decor throughout the cafe. The place is very clean which I like.Now for the food. I ordered a tuna sandwich known as the Sea Master with Matcha Latte and Oat Milk. The sandwich had a crunchy texture dominant pickled onion taste that was flavorful from the first bite. The matcha was the standard ceremonial matcha (I consider myself a matcha expert lol!), although I couldn't really taste nor feel the texture of the oat milk upon consumption.*Actual rating is a 3.75* The app won't let you put anything other than whole stars in rating *If you need a quick pick me up and you're in the Beverly Hills area, Faregrounds is there for you to satisfy all your hunger needs.

While visiting the doctor's office nearby, we stumbled across Faregrounds and were excited to try a new spot. The café itself is small and cozy, with a casual vibe.We weren't particularly fond of our drinks, as they didn't quite meet our expectations, but the Spicy Dawn sandwich was chef's kiss--absolutely delicious! The combination of vodka sauce and pesto was divine and made for a unique and flavorful bite.Service was standard--nothing exceptional but efficient. Overall, while the drinks didn't impress us, the food was definitely worth trying, and I'd consider coming back for that sandwich alone! Overall rating: 3.75 - Drinks were underwhelming, but the Spicy Dawn sandwich was a standout!

I have nothing but good things to say about things place. It's a cute little cafe located in a nice area in Beverly Hills. Upon arrival I have greeted and helped by 3 wonderful ladies (one might've been training), who were very nice and very helpful. I ordered the. Ktown sandwich and a matcha latte, both of which were delicious. They had the perfectly balance of flavors and tasted of fresh ingredients. I will definitely be coming back to this place. :)

This cafe surely caught my weak spot on petite gorgeous space with slow relaxing ambiance. Besides, it's one of my most favorite neighborhood, not because it sold all the fancy luxury goods, but I just loved how walkable the area was which wasn't that common in LA. Plus point was plenty of parking structure nearby, most of which were free for first 2 hours. The space literally looked like a tea garden and it's consistently busy but not overly crowded, which was just perfect. The attendant was so welcoming and accommodating, including for making my sandwich customization request happened. I tried their #1 favorite - Spicy Don, which by default was supposedly served with fried breaded chicken breast fillet, but I asked mine to be substituted with roasted one. Despite the name, it wasn't spicy at all so if you had zero spicy tolerance, still go for it since it did taste luscious. The idea of combining it with straciatella cheese was brilliant and I'd never thought before spicy vodka sauce could go well with pesto sauce. The best highlight was doubtlessly their baguette which came in precisely right texture being fluffy inside but so crispy outside. For a cafe in Beverly, I felt like the price and size were quite normal. I wouldn't really recommend the drink as for me the brown sugar foam matcha latte was just okay. Despite having it with light ice, I felt like my drink was bit watered down and the matcha wasn't as bold as I expected. Besides, the foam was bit clumpy and the brown sugar flavor didn't really stand out. Overall I would still recommend it for the sandwich, and some people did say the salad was also good so prolly would try that one next!

I have been seeing this place on TikTok for a few days now and decided to make a trip from Westwood to try it out. Was it worth it? Id say yes. The place is located next to two parking structures so parking won't be an issue. They have adequate amount of tables so sitting won't be an issue as well.They have a kiosk you can order from or you can order from the two operating registers. Im a big coffee person so their interesting coffee options caught my eye (which is why I initially went) I ended up ordering the saffron latte. Very interesting and delicious Next we decided to hit the food options and ended up with sandwiches. We got the spicy don, sexy southwest and thai basil steak(spicy, so be careful if you can't handle heat). All the sandwiches were between $17-18 which i would say is a normal price for the area. My favorite had to be the sexy southwest. Overall food was great, customer service was great, coffee was delicious and the vibes were immaculate!! PS: Don't mind the long paragraph im trying to become a yelper and give useful detailed reviews

This is definitely gonna be my new favorite place. I came by when they had their soft opening I think a couple of weeks ago. It's such a nice ambiance when you walk in like it's so cute. They already have merch and hats which is really cool to see. Alec the owner was really helpful in choosing what to eat/drink. They had a lot of variety which was nice to see and it's fairly priced. I would say you're getting your moneys worth. The sandwiches were a good size and there's so much flavor. I got the Thai Basil steak and its the most unique sandwich I've ever had. I also got their Matcha Latte and they use ceremonial! I could tell they really to use quality ingredients even with their drinks. Def coming back to try their other specialty drinks. Thank you!!!

The Spicy Don sando is the best chicken parm you'll find in LA ! On top of the amazing food the service is super welcoming. Their Matcha is some of the best I've ever tasted! Their ambiance is super laid back and relaxed to make your visit feel very pleasant.

This was our second time visiting this little gem. We ordered a sandwich and salad. They made a mistake on the sandwich order (ordered spicy don, got southwestern). The person at the register was so kind and realized it and brought us the spicy don. The first sandwich was also so delicious and we never complained. The ambience, the service, and the food is 5. I'll be back again .
