I ordered beef tenderloin and the chicken salad (+coleslaw, bread,fried potatoes) and both of them were huge! (I guess it would be better if u order 2 dishes for 3 people.) The beef was delicious! I had to get a box for the salad as I was already full with the steak, but the chicken was really crispy and good. Highly recommended when u are staying in LA for a while. + the staffs were nice:)

Today was my first time to be at the PANTRY CAFE. I really enjoy this place as the service was great and waitress are very friendly. The cooks are fun to watch as they cook all the food fresh and only as ordered. The cook are very professional and very quick on getting meals out. I personal will tell others about this place and i will for sure go back. One thing for sure you get alot of food and all freshly cooked. I give this place 10 Gold Stairs. Thank you for your great service and attitudes of staff.
