  1. i've only had breakfast. i had asked for multigrain and they gave me whole wheat but the bread itself was good. I also asked for ketchup but they didn't include any in my order. Their sausage tastes a little weird. It might have been turkey sausage but I didn't specify when i made my order; just said "sausage and egg". I wish they had told me they didn't have regular pork sausage. When i opened my sandwich; there was a remnant of PEANUT BUTTER on the cut edge. what if i was allergic to peanuts?? they really shouldve cleaned knife before reusing it. overall, a disappointment. I have very specific breakfast sandwich cravings. the place didn't do it right.

  2. Came here to order take out on a weeknight.  They have a good selection of smoothies, sandwiches, and paninis.  They also offer daily specials which was posted on the wall.

    On this visit, we had the B.O.M.B. and perfectly peachy smoothie.  We also ordered the rosemary grilled chicken panini, grilled philly steak panini, onion rings and fries.  The B.O.M.B. smoothie was refreshing and a strong taste of blueberry.  The perfectly peachy smoothie was not as good but decent.  Maybe because the strong taste of almond covered up the other taste made it not as good and unique.  The portions of the panini are big.  The grilled chicken was flavorful.  The grilled philly steak panini was ok.  A lot of beef inside.  The onion rings were not so good.  Fries were seasoned but most likely they are frozen ones and not hand cut ones.

    Overall, the panini were ok.  Food took a little longer than expected.  Service was friendly.

  3. Unexpectedly delicious for a small cafe/deli!

    Huge portions with many homemade options! Just wow! Don't underestimate the looks of this place. The food speaks for itself. We got the falafel wrap with sweet potato fries and hummus and Havarti sandwich. The bread is HUGE and so fluffy! Everything was overstuffed to the max–no skimping for the price!  

    Everything was fresh and homemade, too much food for the both of us. Falafel was so good–better than most places I've had. Says a lot for a small cafe that takes pride in taking time to home make their ingredients. The yummy hummus was made in house too! The fries were very huge and baked. Very crunchy like chips, never had anything like it. Just how big are their sweet potatoes?!

    No wonder people love this place! Will def come back when in the area.

  4. Looks an any ordinary cafe and it is, but they make some really great paninis.

    I ordered the grilled salmon panini. You can deluxe it and add fries, onion rings, small salad or sweet potato fries. I got some onion rings with my panini. The grilled salmon panini comes with sauteed onions, herbal mayo, sliced tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. Plenty of salmon and the herbal mayo made it really tasty. The mozzarella cheese was oozing in the panini. A mouthwatering and delicious panini.
    The onion rings were great as well. Perfectly cooked onion rings.

    I noticed the staff was really attentive and friendly. The ambience was very chill and relaxing to me. I think this is a neat little place for lunch with some friends.

  5. The cafe is not a bad place to sit down and eat, but the take away is something I should have said when they served my food.

    When I look at a menu sometimes I like to try things off the beaten path and see how tasty the food is or try pot luck roulette. Yes this can be dangerous, you never know what might come up.

    So I tried the Meatloaf Meal, aaahh you say meatloaf thoughts of comfort food with creamy fresh mashed potatoes covered in a oozing gravy. Stop!!!!! Let me wake up this was not served here.

    I got served a 10 inch aluminum take out container with instant mashed potatoes, the meatloaf was standing on its last leg being reheated. I mean it felt like they even cooked the instant potatoes in the same take out pan it was scorching hot and the gravy was instant too!

    I don't expect a gourmet meal for $12 dollars but this was a sad attempt at a meal that should make you feel comforting or good, its meatloaf. WTF they even served some strange white sauce in a cup. The vegetables were fresh but that isn't gonna cut it.

    Actually the meatloaf made me feel sad, if I wanted to commit suicide this would be the meal to put me over the edge.

  6. Ever since they hired new staff (perhaps under new management?) this place has gotten significantly better at handling a high volume of customers at lunch time.

    The people are friendly and attentive. They work at a steady pace to handle in person and take out orders.

    Their prices are fair and competitive to the neighboring health food shops.

    The smoothies here are really fantastic. Their medium is a very generous 20 oz and the consistency is always very smooth (never icy or slushie-like).

    I like to add avocado to my smoothies and they loved the idea so much they are putting my favorite green smoothie on their menu. I jokingly told the owner he would need to name it "The Maya" after me.

    And by joking I meant that I was serious 🙂

  7. I have come here several times since it is so close to my job.  I love everything I have gotten here, but sadly I am not too fond of the service here.  It can be on the slow side even when there aren't a lot of people.  However, the food is delish.  Good amount of portion and very tasty.  You can make your own salad which is always fresh.  I have also tried the salmon here and it was delicious!  Will I be back yes, I just wish the service was better.
