Ascension Coffee - Design District

The service was very friendly. We sat at the bar. The food was tasty and the coffee was delicious. The churro French toast hit the spot. The Benedict was average. The place was pretty busy but the ambiance was cute. The cocktails were fun too. I enjoy a good grapefruit juice.

I always love Ascension! Came here to pick up a go hi order and it was a great experience as always. My order was not only ready, but it was correct including the additional things I placed in the notes because it wasn't an option in the system! I had the migas with vegan chorizo and added tortilla. Also had the blueberry muffin which is literally my favorite muffin! It's SO good!I ended up doubling back in the afternoon with friends because it was close to where we were. I had the espresso flight and fries. The fries were great once we had them remade. Our server was awesome! She gave great recommendations! The place wasn't too packed at the time so the vibe was chill. I enjoyed the drinks and the opportunity to try something different! The club soda to cleanse the palate was perfect!

Very popular brunch spot!! I had made a reservation through Yelp, but they said they don't take reservations on the weekend. So make sure you show up ready to wait in that case. However, we got lucky and were seated shortly after we arrived because someone had just left!The space is big with tables, couches, nooks, chairs, and also a tiny reading corner! There's also outdoor seating! The matcha latte with oat milk was good, as was the espressos martini flight!! I got the brekky power bowl, which was very filling and a perfect mix of healthy ingredients!Our waitress was very friendly and attentive too! If you don't valet park, it's hard to find street parking.Amazing place overall!

I visited Ascension back in December and my experience was great! Cozy atmosphere, delicious drinks, and great service, just what I needed to get in the holiday spirit! Definitely recommend!

Ordered online this weekend and had a terrible experience. We ordered online got 3 drinks and 3 sandwiches said it would be ready in 15-20 min so we arrived 20 min later for pickup. The drinks were already ready but they said another 15 minutes for the food. Okay a little annoying but things happen. Well long story short 40 min after the original time, our food was finally ready. They comped the order and gave a gift card but the sandwiches were cold and a mess by the time they gave them to us. All of our drinks were messed up because they sat so long and nobody ever offered to remake them. My frappe was completely melted, our hot latte was cold and the cold brew watery. The sausage sandwich we ordered was broken and falling apart and the bacon one was supposed to have extra aioli and it didn't. Overall a huge disappointment which is a bummer since we usually love it here

Clean design, don't like how there is only one table for "to go" orders wish there was more seating available, all the other tables are for dining only. After being seated it took ~10 min to get acknowledge by the server lets just say it was a Monday morning, not busy at all. The croissant was nice and warm but not mind blowing. Coffee was ok. The yogurt parfait was TINY it was one scoop of yogurt smeared in a giant bowl haha seriously a joke for the price. Either adjust the portion or lower the price. Also parking was a whole situation in itself, not really continent for a cup of coffee and pastry.

Counter girl too high strung. Was trying to look at the pastries and she kept telling me to take a menu and sit down. I was the only person at the counter and nobody was behind me. I was sorry I stopped in. It was real hard to find, tucked in the industrial streets. You have to value because there's no parking up and down the streets, it's all full with hotel and office customers. It just bummed my day out going there.

The vibes here are incredible, food is always delicious. Love this place!! I ordered a matcha latte and avocado toast with a side of sweet potatoes, best brunch EVER!! Highly recommend this spot!

I really really enjoyed this place. The coffee was delicious, got the iced horchata latte, and the food was fantastic. We got the Cali burrito, steak and eggs, and some of the best pancakes I've ever had. The service was great, maybe a little disorganized, however jt was busy so I can see how that can happen. Comfy seating, nice cafe feel to the inside, and well kept. Absolutely will be back as it was worth every dollar. Not horrifically over priced at all for what you're getting.

The restaurant has free valet. The server was great and confirmed we enjoyed our food. I had a fried chicken sandwich and added bacon with fries. The fries weren't fresh, so the kitchen prepared us new fries which were much better. I also had a dulce de leche espresso martini and it was delicious. I would come back here. It's a nice place to hang out even if you are working.
