"Pie HardLocal woman-owned pie shop located in a nondescript Willow Glen strip mall at the edges of The Mighty Guadalupe.They do more than just sweet fruit pies, but savory quiches, tarts, and egg custards. My son decided he'd rather have a fruit pie for his birthday than a cake--he is my son after all! He settled on a blackberry pie so I ambled in after work one day to place an order to be picked up the next day. The Good:*Ordering process could've been smoother, but the guy at the counter was still training so I'll cut them some slack. *Indoor seating for dining in*Tons of different flavors to choose from in almost every category. Definitely can't complain about selection. *Vegan options available *Blackberry pie filling was out-fucking-standing. Nice balance of sweetness helped bring out the natural flavor and slight tartness of the blackberries. *Crumble on top was decent, but had a bit of a raw flour taste. The Meh:*Parking lot is tight but there is some street parking, as well. *A bit pricey but everything is handmade *I'm not 100% how I feel about this part, but their crumble on top contains almond flour; I wasn't aware of this when ordering or I would've bounced seeing as my son has a tree nut allergy. Fortunately, **he** did spot a sign when he and Carissa came to do the pickup the next day, or it could've been a disaster. Now, I get that they have signs and that's great, but they really, really, REALLY should say something to you when you're ordering. Quite frankly, I've never seen a crumble recipe that uses almond flour so I would never think to assume there might be some in the pie--and I'm sure I'm not the only one. The Ugly:*While the filling was fantastic, the bottom crust was the complete opposite. Somehow they managed to overbake and simultaneously underbake the pie crust at the same time. It was stiff as a rock and pale as an albino's ass. Not sure how that happened, but mazel tov? (ノ゚゚)ノConclusion: Great filling but awful crust. Would definitely be willing to give them another shot, tho."
"Personally I have not gone to this place, but my coworker brought me some pastries and they are to die for, I have been in a strict diet but pastries are my weakness so I will consider it as my cheat day well only to make space for the pastries, since she could not made any decision going to Ada's she brought 3 different ones and I am glad she did, she got blueberry scone, cinnamon roll and blueberry muffin.Blueberry Scone: The moment it hit my mouth I was speechless Oh!! My!!! The last time I had something so amazing don't quite remember, but this one hit the spot and I slow down to leave the last piece for last.Blueberry nut muffin: Not as quite as the Scone but I am a pecan kind of person and I love muffins so this pastry was great not as amazing as the first one but tbh the scone takes 1st place. Cinnamon Roll: I am not a cinnamon kind of gal but this sure surprised me, the first bite was out of this world specially with the cream on the side, I always imagined it super sweet but no on the contrary it was easy to eat and no remorse while eating it. Now this was an exceptional experience with these 3 pastries but I need to visit this place in person so I can try other ones that I bet are as good as these ones. If this pastries are amazing I can just imagine eating them at the spot right from the oven and in a homie feeling, I will definitely try to visit this place very soon. But for now I will enjoy them, thank you for the hands that prepare them you guys are amazing"

"My first impression walking in is that this place is clean and visually appealing. Who ever was the interior designer for this gets a high five. It's extremely stuffy in the store though. There needs to be more ventilation bc I could barely breath. I tried the Thai tea and the mango milk tea (I think it was black tea? Not sure but it was the special for the day so I chose it). Thai tea was average. Nothing special. But if you stumbled upon this place while waiting to get seated next door at boiling crab, I would highly suggest the mango milk tea. So yummmy. The boba balls itself were way too soft for me. It reminded me of loogie.... I'm assuming this is a new place because I ordered two drinks and they were literally SO slow. It took approximately 15 minutes to get my drinks out and it wasn't even a long line. At least customer service was nice. I dinged 3 stars bc 1) there is only one size for drinks 2) service takes too long to make drinks 3) it's so stuffy in there. Smells like ingredients from the viet sandwiches."
"Very cute cafe in a very simple-looking strip mall. Coffee shop-esque with lots of trendy decor and plants. Very kid-friendly with little toys and a small play corner. Prices seemed a bit high, but everything was good. Pastries were yummy and they have a good assortment of coffee drinks. Presentation of everything was really nice."
"Noelle's Yelp Notebook 2024Post Pandemic Chronicles Dear Croissante,I first fell in love with you at your original location in Santa Clara for so many reasons. The first reason I fell in love with your Santa Clara location is simply for the fact you have the most delectable sweet pastries, savory pastry items, and the most amazing items for lunch like your salads and burger. The salad dressing was so amazing I wish you bottled and sold it. Your Santa Clara location is a spot where I'd meet family and friends.When I heard about your Los Gatos location I was so happy because you're extremely close to home.I wish you had your savory lunch items at your Los Gatos location. I know it's probably difficult because it's a smaller location. Yet, please consider having a few lunch items. It would be my one stop shop- my favorite pastries and a sandwich to go :)I came here yesterday after lunching at Steamer's Grillhouse. It was great to see Kaitlynn from your Santa Clara location. Excellent customer service. The ambiance is lovely- the delicious pastries in the beautiful glass displays.I bought pastries for my family and they loved them!!You're a great addition to the town of Los Gatos.I'm excited to try the stollen.In the words of the Dashboard Confessionals song, 'Stolen,' - 'You have stollen my heart :)Love in 2024,Sweet NoelleNoelle's NotesGreat pastriesAmazing customer serviceA favorite in my Yelp Notebook"
"GREAT FROZEN CHINESE DUMPLINGS HERE. If you have frozen dumplings on your grocery list don't get them from the grocery store, get them from here. Review is only for the frozen dumplings and not their baked goods.They taste fresher, the skins are thin, and it's bursting with fillings. They are located in the freezer on the right side when you walk in, they will be in black takeout containers with clear lids or in bags. They were almost sold out around 2:30 pm which means tons of people are buying them.Some pricing for the ones we bought:-Pork wonton = $6.99-Shrimp, Pork, Chive Wonton = $7.99-Shrimp, Pork, Chive dumpling = $x.xx (forgot pricing)The dumpling we pan-cooked gyoza style with oil and did the other half boiled. Both were really good and tasted home-made and fresh, like something an older relative would make.Wontons same high quality, very good in leftover chicken soup on a cold day.If you've never been here it's inside the Lion Market, just look for Lion in the plaza and walk in, it'll be down the entrance walkway on the left."
"The coffee and bagels here are always fresh. You can tell by the texture and smell how great the bagels are, but they have such a great selection too. It's a lil quant place not really setup for sitting and dining."
"Cute cafe and good coffee.It's very spacious and the vibes are spot on. Downside is there is no WiFi if you're here to get some work done and parking is limited. Staff was okay when I went, no latte art on my coffee hahaha but coffee was still yummy."
"Came here because I was craving a bagel and it was the closest bagel spot from where I was and I am so happy I found this place! The service was quick and great. I got a veggie bagel with humus on a jalapeño and cheese bagel and it was so fresh! They also had so many bagel options. The place itself has a few tables and chairs you can sit in. I would come back again."
"This place has matured quite a bit after being in business some time. You can now get a shot of fancy italian espresso, along with new brews of coffee several times a day. They even have sugar now!Also the barista seems to work part time as the neighborhood shrink, and you can apparently reserve the place to pour out woes if you're having trouble finding a date."
"Been looking for a banh mi shop in Campbell area and stumbled upon Yummee! I saw the sign and figured why not give this place a try! I got sandwich #1 with the cold cut and pate! The restaurant name is very well deserved because yummy was the first thing I thought when I bit into the sandwich. Soft bread center, but still a toasted on the outside, fresh bread. Delicious pickled vegetables, and the meats are so fresh and tasty. Super fast and great customer service too. There are a couple of small tables inside and a couple outside (great for the upcoming season, especially since it's starting to warm up). I also wanted to commend how kind the staff were because the owner's husband called her and told her to tell me I had a flat tire, I had no idea. She was really kind to let me know and then I was able to get a tow truck. She let me stay inside and sit while I wait since it was chilly. Super grateful for the kindness that was shown and I can't wait to try their bo kho and grab a couple more banh mis to go next time :)"
"Short Story: A great place for small bites and appetizers!Long Story: I've been here 3 times since they opened in September 2024. I've tried their rice dogs, wings, fries, and more! The food is good (for the most part) but their rice dogs are a bit too chewy. The hot dog itself seems a bit subpar. Their wings are great with several different flavors. I've tried the kimchi and badok which was super spicy! The service is good and the portions are okay. There is a bit of a long wait and I'm hoping this gets better over time. The prices are in line with what you get.Verdict: I'll go back someday."

We ordered the Apple Pie for Christmas dessert and it was a smash. Not too sweet, well balanced with filling and crust. We have also tried the mini chocolate cream pie, key lime pie, pear and cheese pie, and banana cream pie and they were all excellent fresh flavors. This is a staple for sure.

If y'all don't know about Ada's, y'all should -- because they got one of the BEST coffees around town. They are locally sourced and get the most organic beans, and make the BEST pastries. And best of all, they are a 501(c)3 non-profit social enterprise running in the heart of Palo Alto. I work at Cubberley not far from Ada's, so I have been coming by often and supporting. A big shout out goes to Kathleen, the owner and founder of Ada's Cafe -- she's absolutely humble and very caring at every customer. She goes above and beyond in support of not only the neurodivergent community, but also for the communities in need in Palo Alto. I ordered a 16oz latte with whole milk on a Friday -- and they honestly served it with SO much love and so much belonging. It truly felt like I was at home, but 10x better. The beans had flavor, and the whole milk wasn't overly saturated. I also appreciated how much love and consideration they put in the croissant sandwich as well, because the ingredients were fresh and not too sweet or too salty at all. It is located next to the Palo Alto Library, and they do close early at 4pm. There is limited indoor seating, but there is a variety of things you can choose from. I would definitely recommend supporting a local business like Ada's and having your bestie brunch dates here too.

This place is combined with Thien Huong sandwiches and bakery. It was a hot day on Saturday and I was hungry so I decided to get a sandwich at Thien Huong but also ordered a black milk tea with egg pudding. The black milk tea with egg pudding was actually really good. I would definitely come back for more :)

Very cute cafe and bakery in the Los Gatos/Almaden neighborhood. Easy to find parking and decent amount of seating indoors/outdoors. Would recommend getting here early (before 11AM) on weekends.Loved the decor and fancy dessert display case. I ordered the Strawberry Rose Latte and avocado toast. The latte came with little bits of flower on top, and was delicious; on the sweeter side. The avocado toast was also tasty; presentation was solid on both. The pickled radishes were a nice touch.Great place for a coffee date, light breakfast/brunch, or afternoon tea.

Located next to Wells Fargo in downtown LG where Manressa used to be, it's a small space and they have a fair selection of baked goods but we were really looking for fruit/berry tarts. We ended up getting a mini tiramisu for our picnic and it was perfectly delicious with our red wine.Service was quick & friendly on a Sunday afternoon and outdoor seating is available at a few tables. Parking is everywhere & it's a flat entry so it's accesable for anyone.If they had they had the tarts we hoped to find it would be 5 stars.

We visit this strip mall often when we find ourselves in Newark, and occasionally pop our heads into La Farfalla. They offer a pretty good deal on bulk refrigerated buns and frozen dumplings, and have a pretty good assortment of breads and pastries to choose from.On our last trip here, we bought a pistachio bun. It was definitely our LEAST favorite bun of the batch we chose, and highly regretted getting it. Overall the flavors here are ok, but they never seem to hit it out of the park from the ones we've bought so far. Service was friendly, and shop is pretty clean looking from the exterior.

Love love love this spot! This is the epitome of what I am always looking for -- good solid coffee/espresso drinks, with warm breakfast items (not just pastries), and good vibes!This is a busy spot, but with two stories, luckily there is ample seating. The do NOT have wifi, and encourage communication over hiding behind laptops here. I loved the Avo toast. In general I'm easily annoyed if I pay $10+ for something I could easily whip up at home, but the sourdough felt like high quality artisianal bread, and I loved the crispy "salsa seca" on top which was like crushed nuts and seeds I think. Definitely a unique avo toast worth the outing. Breakfast sandwich was also amazing- super juicy and hearty with all the right ingredients. Interestingly they use veggie sausage patty but real bacon.... either way it worked for me!

"THIS DRIVE THRU IS THE BOMB.COMIf you haven't been to Nha, what are you even doing? You're missing out if you haven't been yet!Nha serves up Vietnamese-inspired drinks and everything on the menu is good. NEW! Tamarind Breeze - Roasted peanuts, pineapple, tamarind syrup (for those who loved Keo Me) Pandan Dream - Pandan soy milk, mung bean, coconut (pandan soy milk nostalgia, anyone?) Orange Sunset - Lemongrass tea, peach, orange (super refreshing and perfectly balanced!) Corn Cloud - Corn milk, coconut foam (think Che Bap in a drink!)Each drink impressed me, bringing out those familiar Vietnamese flavors I grew up with. You can't go wrong with any of the choices, but if I had to pick one, corn cloud is my choice!KEEP IN MIND: Nha is drive-thru only, so just look for the green sign they share with Modo, and you'll know you're at the right spot."
"Went there for lunch today with the family - it was delightful! The Italian sodas were a hit and so were the sandwiches and soup. We wished we tried it earlier. It's now going to be in our regular lunch rotations. We ate on the cute patio in the back."
"We visited again on the 2nd day, which was their BOGO deal. Buy any drink and the free 2nd drink must be the same drink that you purchased. My wife bought the Ume Boba Milk Tea. I bought the Mango Coco for friends."
"Tried the banana coffee with herbal jelly and it was sooo cute. The herbal jelly was shaped like giant boba and the coffee was the perfect balance of strong coffee flavor with a hint of banana milkThe hazelnut americano is not on the best seller menu anymore but cashier said they can still make it anytime. I love finally founding a place in the Bay that serves Korean style sweet americanos."
"I'm happy to say Coupa has really improved their service. Love coming here for healthy food, meeting with friends or work colleagues, and the maya hot chocolate. Would love to see this open even later on weekdays. The ambiance is definitely still very much a locals scene. For us locals, it feels like home. Pro tip: Try the maya hot chocolate"
"High end bougie patisserie! The pastries all look like works of art in display.Black sesame croissant was slamming! It was filled up with sesame cream that oozed out when you bit into it. Service was good. Lots of people in line to eat pretty pretty pastries."
"I've been coming to Nuoc Mia Vien Dong 2 for years, and it's always a go-to spot for me! Their nuoc mia (sugarcane juice) is super refreshing and has the perfect amount of sweetness--never too watered down like some other places. And the waffles? So good! Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with that perfect touch of sweetness.The quality is always consistent. FYI, It is on the pricier side for a beverage. They have a $15 credit card minimum, so bring cash if you're only grabbing a drink. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!"
"Wow !! Their cakes are always so fresh !! One of the nicest bakery in Fremont. They have a variety or breads and snacks, but I mostly go for their cakes. They generally dont keep cakes ready, but prepare fresh for you in 15 mins. Their mousse is melt in mouth. Sponge so soft and fresh. We always enjoy their chocolate and Mango mousse cake. They staff is always nice and friendly.I ordered a special cake for my Sister's baby shower and that turned out perfect. Would always recommend their cakes."
"I decided to come here after work to focus on writing an essay. I arrived around 4pm and instantly noticed that it was crowded. I started scanning the not-so-big place to see if I could sit anywhere. There was a long communal table and a free chair in front of a man, so I asked him if I could sit, and he kindly nodded. I put my stuff down and headed to the restroom (which was clean! Thank you!). I returned from the bathroom, saw an empty table, and moved since I was waiting for my husband to arrive. I tried to log into wifi, but there was no sign with a passcode, so I asked, and the manager said the wifi password is on the receipt after you purchase something. I told her I hadn't bought anything yet, returned to my space, and logged into my hotspot. I wasn't quite ready to order anything yet. About twenty minutes later, my boo arrived, and he ordered a coffee and sandwich while I stepped outside for a phone call. When I returned, I tried his coffee and was inspired to order the same thing. I asked him what it was, and he told me macchiato, so I went and ordered a macchiato and was presented with what looked like an itsy-bitsy cappuccino. I said um, I tried to order what my husband ordered, and this is not it. I looked towards him, and they said oh, that's a caramel macchiato. I asked if I could get that instead, and they said I'd have to pay for the new drink. I said it was an honest mistake, especially since my husband's first language is not English, and the employee said no, so I turned into a Karen and asked for the manager. The manager specified that it was my bad and couldn't do anything about it. I tried to explain about the honest mistake and him not speaking English well, so she then resorted to charging me the difference, which is fine.I honestly refrain from complaining or causing a scene; the thing is that tiny macchiato was like two tablespoons of espresso with some foam on top--tiny. It was bitty, and I would've drank it, but it tasted like tar, and I wasn't in the mood for tar.I paid the difference and got my new drink, and I swear you'd think that I had just asked them for twenty free drinks...they were so annoyed by me. I almost didn't want to drink the coffee because of the bad mojo, but I blessed my cup and drank it anyway. Instead of writing my essay, I am writing this review, and in this time, I've had to use the bathroom again. This time I noticed a sign on the hand dryer (no paper towels are provided) that says to not dry your hands with toilet paper. Um...I will dry my hands with TP if I want to."
"Get a cup straight from the source! It is in the factory. They are super nice here and it'll probably be the best cup of Ikon you'll get."
"One of my favorite ube lattes in the bay! The ube isn't just food coloring--it tastes like some real ube halaya in your drink. And the espresso here is QUALITY.Everyone was ordering their ube lattes iced, but honestly after trying both, I looooove it hot. With almond. I'm sure it's amazing w/ oat, too. But I just didn't stray away from what I considered a masterpiece. The line is consistently super long, even on a Thursday at 1030am. There's plenty of seating but it's almost always taken up. If you're lucky, someone will share a table with you. Get there early or be ready to wait! But it's worth it."
"I can't believe I'm saying this but....Cay banh mi might just have beat Duc Huong's!My husband and I stumbled upon Cay cafe while hanging out in Fremont. From their Yelp they had fairly new ratings and so we decided to try it. And let me tell you.....it's was fabulous! Their bread was freshly baked and so perfect. It had a crispy crust and soft filling. We ordered the combination cold cut and the grilled pork sandwich. I just can't believe how different their bread, pate and meats tasted verse other Vietnamese sanwhich shops. It was supreme! Their pate/butter/cold cuts/bread was better than duc huong and it tasted more fresh. Even their pickled veggies which I don't like (I enjoyed here)!We've had our fair share of banh mi's at many local spots and other states. But I'm so glad we found Cay Cafe! It's a 10/10 for us!"
"To simply put it: a must to visit if you love specialty donuts or even very buttery croissants!We stopped by early Sunday morning to order their assortment for gifts back home and for us to indulge in. They are currently offering holiday flavors which sounded so good that we bought a few of them.We were greeted immediately and knowing how big their selection is, they assured us we could take our time. Our first box of four was: graham smores, matcha mont blanc, coffee creme brulee, and kalakand (a rose white, white chocolate).Our second box of four was: graham smores, matcha mont blanc, tiramisu, and vanilla bean.And lastly, our last order was a single butter croissant warmed.This was the best butter croissant I've had in a long time. With the box of donuts you will buy, you should order a box of croissants as well. As for the donuts, they are absolutely delicious! The chocolate glaze was decadent, the matcha was rich, the tiramisu was incredible! I enjoyed this so much and I hope the box we bought for our friends will be just as loved."
"Couldn't find it on Google Maps, then I realized it's located inside of the MCA. The barista/cashier was very nice, and the cafe was nice and quiet. I was surrounded by people who had just finished prayer, and also some people from the local community grabbing a quick bite or drink. I saw some kids grabbing an ice cream cone too.I ate the chicken sandwich and really enjoyed it. They also have your normal coffee items too. Every once in a while, there were children running back and forth yelling but that's the only thing I could think of to complain about. It is an open area cafe so you will see people doing their thing at the MCA, walking past. I enjoyed my time at Rumman Cafe. I felt very peaceful and comfortable and look forward to coming back again."
"Matcha Milo Bingsu- BOMB! will be back for the short ribs and rice, and to try the Squid Milo BingsuService was attentive, sweet, and fast! Thanks Tcafé I found my new fav spot"
"Consistently cozy! I'd been to Big Basin Cafe a few times before, and loved the warm, homey atmosphere. On a Saturday afternoon, they were pretty busy, but we were able to order at the counter right away. I got a Blueberry Lavender Latte and Avocado Toast. The Blueberry Lavender Latte was incredible - great flavors, perfect for a rainy day. The Avocado Toast was very average, and came with a mountain of sprouts on top, so I ended up picking some off. It was a decent snack, but not particularly filling. Since we were still hungry, my roommate and I got a Mushroom Quiche and slice of Blueberry Pie to share. The Mushroom Quiche was pretty good (cheesy, nice texture), but the Blueberry Pie was easily the highlight. It wasn't overly sweetened, the blueberry filling was delicious, and it went great with whipped cream. They also had a massive selection of pies, so I would love to try more in the future. Would return!"
"I never "yelp" a place that I haven't tried at least 3 times, but breaking my own rule here for this one. Ambiance - it's vintage, it's train depot, it's DC comics, it's old diner feel. This is a place to satisfy and savor your time either on your own, or with your love, or with a friend. Watching people roll in here...they're not in a rush, and you shouldn't be, too. It's not just the memorabilia on the wall though that makes this place, it's the owner. You can tell that she's the heart. She is welcoming and warm and friendly and remembers customers! Food - there's regular American food then there's the Filipino breakfasts. Not gonna lie, that's why I'm here because I am always in search for the silogs breakfast places! My filipino heart & soul longs for it, always, even if I can make it at home. I had the Tapsilog (Beef tapa, garlic rice, and 2 eggs). The beef was well marinated with a good dose of flavor, my eggs perfectly cooked, and garlic rice that didn't overwhelm the taste buds - perrrrrfect. The latte I ordered was worth the wait - it was actually the best latte I've ever had. Service - As far I can tell, the owner was an all-in-one package (server, chef, bus person, barista, sunshine, and possible therapist). The service was like walking into a friend's house - it was immediately warm & friendly. She acknowledged my presence letting me know to sit anywhere, while she tended to a table full of regular customers. She took my order with a smile and we ended up having a lovely conversation. Honestly, it was the most relaxing time spent sitting at a table waiting for my food and coffee. Cost - My combo meal was $13.95 for big chunks of beef, a scoop of rice, and 2 eggs. 13 freaking 95! You can't be more reasonable than that, you guys. There are other restaurants that charge $18-$22 for the same damn plate, but at $13.95- I labeled it cheap eats. I don't know what you guys are waiting for...umalis na kayo (leave already)!Cleanliness - OMgee, yessss! As in, the place is clean and so are the bathrooms.I also experienced another surprise when I paid the bill - I wasn't allowed to leave a tip. When I asked about it, the owner said "it's your first time here and I never accept tips from a first time customer". Now when the last time you heard a business say that to you? Exactly. You guys still home?! I said "Tara na!" (Come on, let's go!)"
"WOW I love you, Paris Baquette! Your cakes are the best! Light, creamy, fluffy, perfect for my taste bud! Your Green tea cake, strawberry and banana roll cakes, and blueberry cream cake are among some of my favorites!! I love the plenty of pastries options here as well!!!! The cream puffs, Croissants, Crème Brûlée Buns, Mochi Doughnuts are absolutely delightful! Your Macaroons are so Great! Love the blueberries Pistachios, Strawberries, and chocolate Flavors!I cannot wait to try other cakes and bake goods items here, Paris Baquette!!!"
"Got to know about this gem of a restaurant through the TGTG app. Right from the get go these guys have had their food better than most if not all Indian restaurants in the Bay Area. It's a small place at the intersection of Bascom and Newhall in Santa Clara. Let me talk about the food I got through TGTG - Pongal, sambar, chutney, cauliflower 65, kesari bath, garlic naan and curry for naan. My wife and I shared this for dinner and I kid you not - we were both full!! The pongal was amazing - but sambar was out of this world! The Kesari was good too. The curry for garlic naan and the naan itself were good too. Overall I would recommend and revisit this place. BTW, they were giving patrons free Masala Chai - which was among the best chai I had in the Bay Area! Kudos to the management- maintain the taste and quality and you will not run out of customers!"
"Excellent fruit teas. I got mango, lychee, and peach teas with passion fruit popping bobas and lowest sugar level (10-25%). They have a buy 2 get 1 free deal. I paid $4.50 per drink + 0.50 per topping. Really affordable, but more importantly, very delicious teas. Their fruity teas are perfect treats on a hot day. The lychee tea has bits of lychee fruit in the drink. I really like the snacks too: takoyaki are my favorite. Service is great: nice and friendly. This is my favorite boba tea in San Jose."
"Great service, great pricing, good food.I will have to say though as a disclaimer, it is giving off very heavy Vietnamese coffee shop vibes with the dresses on waitresses and the heavily skewed presence of dozens of asian uncles who are smoking(Kind of a pain since the patio is so close to the main doors that the smell gets in).While I'm personally unsure if that's intended or not, I am not reviewing for or against that.Prices are cheaper than most restaurant-styles in the Bay Area, with a majority of the items being under $20($14-18 range). Food is fairly authentic in flavor profiles, some mishaps here and there but nothing that I'd deduct for.Bo Ne/Sizzling Beef - 4/5 Came with two pretty big pieces which as everyone knows is nice as many places try to cheap out on this and give you like a couple small ones. Bread/baguette was the only minus here as the ends were either stale or overdone considering they were as hard as rock. Chicken Curry - Authentic tastes as mentioned, great nostalgic home cooking taste. As I only had a few bites, not going to give points about this.Default "Water" is some kind of brighter yellow/green tea, potentially chrysanthemum which was nice as a refreshing change of pace. Service was great, waitress filled our water pretty much spot on as we finished it and checked in with us.All in all, great spot to stop by for a cheap lunch with the only problem being location/small parking lot."
"Everything went well. The staff-very welcoming, the meal was differently wonderful. We had a Sambussa -Thin dough shells stuffed with lentils, onions, hot green peppers and herbs. Thismeatless dish is lightly fried in vegetable oil to golden perfection. Lamb Wot - Hot and spicy lamb stew made of lean lamb and simmered slowly in berbere and kibbe (purified and seasoned in butter)Beef Kay Tibs - Spicy beef stew simmered in hot red sauce, seasoned in butter, and our exotic spices. Everything was outstanding. Will be returning. Are you here yet?"
"Such a fun place to go on the weekend. I went here with my sister and her family which included a 3 year old child. She was able to play in the open quad area next to the cafe. They have great outdoor seating. The portions are very generous and filling. The preparation is amazing and they also pay attention to detail with regards to the presentation of the food. What I liked the most was the friendly warm and inviting demeanor of all of the staff. They were patient with questions and went out of their way to make you feel welcome."
