I became a regular here. I'd recommend their Vietnamese iced coffee if you need an extra boost. However, the iced coffee was my go to. The pastries are a little pricey but worth it! Check out the banana chocolate chip muffin if you're craving something sweet!

I am a fan of their coffee. Beans are fresh, the shot is crema-ful, strong and flavorful. Plus it is one of those places where the baristas know what they are doing.

Stop by very late for a light meal. Had a Caesar salad with grilled chicken. The salad was outstanding and the grilled chicken was outstanding, as well. Service was average. Also had the beignets for dessert, which were very good. So, I will give it five stars for food and four stars for service.

Good time and the outdoor seating is nice. Just some creepy guys roaming about that takes away from it being better. Parking is always a challenge.

I don't normally write reviews and as a former server and bartender I always try to give servers a second chance and be patient but this was hands down the worst service I have ever had anywhere. It was so bad it's surreal, almost funny. We were seated by a hostess right away and after about 5 minutes someone came and poured us water, but they didn't introduce themselves so we realized they weren't our server. We kept looking over the menu and talking about what to order and then another 5-10 minutes went by and we realized how long it had been with no one coming to greet us or take a drink order. We were seated outside and my mother saw a server walking inside and she gestured at him. He came out and apologized for our wait. We told him it was no problem and that we were ready to order drinks and food. He took our order but didn't write anything down (I know many servers don't write down orders but he repeated it back to us incorrectly and we had to remind him a couple times what we actually wanted). He then went to take the order of the table next to us, who sat down about 10 minutes after us. We go back to chatting and start to feel like it's been a long time since we ordered and we still don't have drinks, also our waters are now empty and no one has come back to refill them. We then see that the table next to us that ordered after us is about half way through their drinks so I look at my phone and see that it's been over 45 minutes since we sat down, so probably almost 30 minutes since we ordered. At this point I suggest we just leave and get a pizza because I was starving and it was almost 10 o'clock. We see a man inside wearing a suit so we assumed him to be the manager and my partner (who is a bartender and has been in the industry almost 10 years so he's also very patient with wait staff) went inside to let him know what was going on. The manager said he would sort it out and then disappeared into the back. Five minutes later the bartender comes out and introduces herself and apologized on behalf of our server, saying he was backed up (although the table who sat after us were already eating at this point). She had brought 2/4 drinks with her and we informed her she was missing two of our drinks. She again apologized and said he must have rung it in wrong and she would be right back with them. By the time she returned with my sister's and my drinks my mother and partner we're almost through with theirs. We told her if our food order was not in that we did not want it and we would just like to leave and eat somewhere else but she assured us it would be out soon. We've now been there for over an hour, the table that sat down after us is already getting their check, the server and the manager have both seemingly disappeared, and we have several bussers and the bartender coming to check on us every minute or so. The food finally came out. Everything was delicious, the only complaints with the food were that they forgot the sauce for my partner's salmon and the bread for my sister's soup. The food is the only redeeming thing about this place. We had one round of drinks comped and were offered free dessert. Honestly it was not nearly worth it. Our final bill came out to $136. I can't believe we paid that kind of money plus tip to eat at restaurant and be treated like that. I understand that things in a restarted do not always go as planned and that servers are human and make mistakes. My real issue is that the manager was aware of the situation and never came to our table to offer an apology or make it right. How he came to be in that position I'll never know. In every restaurant I've ever worked in the manager's first priority is safety and the second is customer service. In all we were there over to hours, and I wouldn't ever care to spend a moment more there. The food was good but the service was agonizing. I will never return.
