I come back here because of the employees and the product. I want to shout out Eden for being so patient, informative, and really a joy to visit every time I come to pick up. The price is the best, the deals are great, the employees are super chill. I don’t live in the area anymore and I come back to this shop routinely because of the vibes.

Never has there been a friendlier or better informed staff at shop. Karina was a delight to work with and she helped me find what I needed before I even knew I needed it simply by listening to what I had to say. 10/10 experience.

My favorite weed store in LA. Ask for Aspen, Grace or Eden, they are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I always feel like they’re recommending the best product for me not the best product for profit. This place has the feel of a neighborhood bar, it makes every other dispensary in LA feel like they’re missing the point.

First time going yesterday (because they had what no one else had that I wanted) Grace, who I saw was a fantastic individual who educated me when I asked questions and was extremely pleasant. I can’t recommend this place more! A+

We are always recommending this location to our friends, as it has some of the best prices and product selection in LA! The small but mighty staff is knowledgeable, kind, and always a blast to chat with. Aspen and Eden are phenomenal budtenders who always have the best recs and best promo info. Whether it’s flower, prerolls, vapes, carts, or edibles / drinkables - they’ve got you covered! My wife and I have been going here for several years, and since the location was acquired by 818 Brands the deals have stayed fabulous (and might have gotten even better?!) Bonus points for an accessible parking lot with dedicated spaces for The WEED as well!
