Editorial Review for Natas Pastries – by Whitney Friedlander

In Short
A large, glowing bakery case takes up most of the room in the small, blue-and-white tiled restaurant, proudly presenting the day's goods. The staff, clad in white bakers uniforms, explains the different cakes and tarts to nearby office workers and residents who lean or kneel in front of it. Those getting their feet wet dabble in plain or coconut-covered natas, the custard-filled namesake and popular Portuguese dessert, while bolder choices like marzipan-and-browie towers are also available. There are also sandwiches available for purchase

Insider Tips

Save Time

Call ahead to have a cake or pastry platter prepared for your special occasion.

Where to Sit

Although the restaurant is best for carry out, those with some time to spare can devour their eats and treats at the handful of patio tables in front.

What to Drink

If you are sticking around, you can wash down those confections with a cup of espresso.

I just found out about this bakery recently when I was talking with friends about my trip oversea. I was in Portugal last year and loved it so they told me about Natas Pastries, apparently the only Portuguese bakery/cafe in the city, I had to go there....of course I recognized a lot of the pastries in the case and everything looked so good..I tried a few of their specialties with my friend and it was even better than I remember when I was in Portugal. I just wanted to write a note to anyone looking for a great bakery to go and visit this wonderful store. Great service, great food, great coffee!

Pros: Thumbs up, way, way up!!!

It's the only place in Los Angeles were you can get "pasteis de bacalhau (cod)" that's a savory Portuguese treat and also the "natas" in Portugal they call that pasteis de Belem. The owner is Portuguese and very friendly. Why 4 stars? Well the other pastries there are good but no phenomenal, nothing out of the ordinary.
