The Breakfast Shack

Located in the former home of the South LA icon Art's Famous Chili Dogs—you can still see the old neon sign from 1939—The Breakfast Shack serves unfussy breakfast staples that don’t reinvent the wheel but have enough heft to get you through one of those workdays when your boss schedules too many meetings. A good bet here is the breakfast sandwich with a seared hot link on a brioche bun—get the home fries on the side over the hash browns. If you’re looking for something a little more composed (i.e., something you can’t eat one-handed), sit on the outdoor patio and try the creamy shrimp and grits or the crispy pancake-shaped salmon croquettes with housemade biscuits.
