Counter service/full service restaurant
I ordered the fried chicken with 2 sides, $21. The fried chicken was not so crispy and it was almost wet in some ways of grease or water or something. The flavors of the veggies and the sweet potato was great. I don't know how much sugar was added in the sweet potato though...
Good service, clean bathroom, small parking lot and lots of street parking.
Lots of cakes on display that looked yummy.
Fire! Fire! Fire! What a hidden Gem this restaurant is. I have seen Then for a while and decided to try them out and boy was I impressed. I had the chicken club sandwich that was bursting with flavor a salad and some black eye peas that were just incredible. The Black Eyed Peas may be the best I've ever had. I'm not gonna tell my mom though. It has a great atmosphere with fantastic smooth enjoyable music. I love this place and can't wait to come back soon To try some more of the dishes they have on their menu.
Southern goodness that is not overly greasy! It's pretty healthy tasting in a good way and fits the LA scene. There's street parking only so it can be a bit of a pain. The Grilled Catfish was done well and I got it with Cheesy Grits. The Sweet Potatoes and Collard Greens are really tasty too! Must have then together. They also have a big selection of desserts too so get some to go! The Upside Down Pineapple Cake is simple and delish!
A Memorable Culinary Experience at My Two Cents Restaurant
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
I recently had the pleasure of dining at My Two Cents Restaurant, and I must say, it was an absolute delight from start to finish. This hidden gem has truly stolen my heart with its exceptional service, delicious food, inviting atmosphere, and unforgettable desserts.
Yo, this spot is so dope! I came here b/c I saw Alisa’s show on Hulu. If you love soul food with some vegan and gluten free options, then you gotta come check them out! 💯
Great food, great atmosphere, and overall a good experience. I got the plantain tacos. My friend got the catfish tacos. Overall, 10 out of 10 on the food and service.
I love that how when people walk through the door, the staff behind the counter yelled out welcome.
The strawberry cake.. Hella good. Definitely you want to buy this.

Everything here is made with love. My first visit was so amazing I had to bring my parents all the way from long Beach for lunch. Oxtail Tacos for the win! Save room for sweets. Thank me later.
I found My Two Cents while searching for a brunch spot in LA and I am so glad I visited, especially since I supported a black owned restaurant!
I was eyeing the catfish but they were all sold out. Unfortunately for me (since I am a pescatarian) there weren't many options on the brunch menu but I decided on ordering the waffle with sweet potato hash. My bf ordered the chicken w/ grits with a side of eggs. The eggs were perfectly seasoned and both of our plates were plated beautifully. ORDER the sweet potato hash, it was GREAT! The honey biscuits that came with our order were good too.
There are a couple of seats inside and outside. Service is quick and staff is friendly. Would definitely come back here when visiting LA again!

Small interior, mixed with some great innovative dishes.
The ‘Soul spring rolls’ are the most innovative soul food dish I’ve had, surprised I haven’t seen it before. We ordered the check in with collard greens that comes with a barbecue sauce for dipping - wow.
Macaroni - The macaroni and cheese is a brown rice penne pasta, which on its own I would think is very good, but to pay $13 for that size I think is a little ridiculous. I think our particular dish didn’t have many whole pieces of penne, they were all broken up- kind of like the end of a bowl where it’s all scraps and then put into macaroni… Which, if that was the point, then OK, but it seemed like a miss– still very good, but the size and the broken pieces of pasta left me hoping for more.
Catfish - We ordered the fried catfish, with a side of sweet potato yams, both great. The way they bread the fish, grainy thin and crispy. Yum.
Strawberry Cake - We got the strawberry cake to go, it was way too sweet for me but the others liked it.
Chicken soul rolls and black rice were amazing. Customer service, excellent. Myles and Lavonce served us and were very professional. A bit under seasoned with some of the dishes for my taste. Atmosphere was community orientated.
