Toastique, a gourmet toast concept hailing from Washington D.C., is coming to 6255 Sunset Blvd, just steps away from the Hollywood Walk of Fame, this September. Toastique will offer gourmet toast creations, smoothie bowls, nutrient-rich cold-pressed juices, espresso, coffee, and grab-and-go options.
“The site has a nice curb appeal and the grounds are nicely kept. The location is very central, with a lot of commercial and residential spots around there,” says franchisee Charles Steynberg. “That whole area of Sunset feels like it’s been through a nice refresh, there are tons of restaurants popping again.”
The 1800-square-foot site will be Steynberg’s first Toastique location. It will feature indoor seating set against a Los Angeles inspired mural designed and painted by artist Mary Lai, and outdoor patio seating.
“What I really like about Toastique is its menu caters to a ton of healthy options – acai bowls, smoothies, toasts, fresh juice, coffees – we have a bit of everything.”
Menu highlights include the PB Crunch Toast (honey roasted peanut butter, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, berry jam, granola, peanuts, honey drizzle, and mint on walnut raisin toast), the Tuscan Tuna Toast (tuna dressed with sundried tomatoes, capers, scallions, herb vinaigrette, balsamic glaze, kalamata olives, tomato, bibb lettuce, lemon twist on rustico toast) and the Smoked Salmon Toast (smoked pastrami salmon, herbed cream cheese spread, arugula, cucumber, pickled onion, capers, toasty seasoning, microgreens, lemon twist on sourdough toast).
Guests can also enjoy freshly blended smoothies, such as the Iced Brew (coffee, banana, dates, almond milk) and iced collagen lattes including the Turmeric Latte (vital proteins collagen, turmeric chai spice, ginger, maple syrup, almond milk).
Steynberg is also planning to open two additional Toastique locations in L.A. in the future.
