Fast-casual, fresh flavors join UCLA’s Westwood Village and The Shops at USC Village
Bruxie, an up-and-coming “culinary casual” concept celebrated for its inviting atmosphere and innovative menu offerings, including hand-crafted waffle sandwiches, famous chicken tenders and artisan custard shakes, expands to two Los Angeles college communities as it opens locations at UCLA’s Westwood Village on Wednesday, November 6, and at The Shops at USC Village on Wednesday, November 13. The restaurants will focus on quality and creativity as they bring Bruxie’s one-of-a-kind dining experience to locals, visitors, and students in the UCLA and USC communities.
A Southern California-born concept, Bruxie has spent the past 14 years perfecting its elevated fast-casual dining experience that combines a welcoming staff with a chef-driven menu that hinges on fresh ingredients and creative culinary ideas. At its new L.A. locations at Westwood Village and USC Village, Bruxie will continue its mission to provide high-quality food, including hand-crafted waffle sandwiches, famous chicken tenders, and housemade shakes, in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere.
“With eight thriving locations in the Southern California area already, we are thrilled to open two new two university-adjacent restaurants in the Los Angeles market,” said Bruxie CEO, Scott Grinstead. “Our new locations – in the UCLA community of Westwood, and in the downtown L.A. area that’s home to USC – join vibrant communities that crave quality dining experiences and value our commitment to innovative flavors and exceptional service.”
Since 2010, Bruxie has combined a friendly atmosphere with high-quality ingredients, time-intensive processes and proprietary recipes to create a dining experience unlike any other. Inviting guests to explore new options with every visit, Bruxie’s wide-ranging menu features everything from hand-crafted chicken tenders and unique waffle sandwiches to desserts and shakes made with real Wisconsin custard. Sauces are handmade in-house daily, produce is freshly chopped onsite, chicken is marinated for 24 hours before being fried to perfection and the brand’s Belgian-inspired waffle batter was designed to achieve a delightfully light and airy texture with a crispy finish.
