Gjusta - Venice Beach

Loved it years ago, still love it. Stays busy, for good reason, and expect to move and keep up with the process. Grab a number, grab a menu and pick what you want (with 1 backup), then patiently wait and enjoy the splendor of movement and cohesion as the kitchen delivers breads, meats, and cheeses with speed and a smile. It’s your turn. Step up, make your order loud and clear, tap that card, and head outside to a table under the canopy. It’s a beautiful thing, and I love coming back again and again. Vegetarian options: I love the veggie sandwich, and for ovo-veg, the Veggie Madame is great. There’s some veggie pizza and salad options as well, so a good few choices if you’re traveling with omnivores.

Love their sandwiches and pastries. Croissants are so crispy. Cheesecake is creamy and not sickening sweet. It is like a basque cheesecake but delicately made and not burned.

This bakery is an absolute gem! The pastry was perfectly flaky and rich, while the Basque cheesecake was a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth delight. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

20 bucks for a yogurt and they don’t even provide WiFi to customers. Food is great btw.

Great food. On the pricier side but great atmosphere.
