Came here with a bunch of friends. First of all definitely get a reservation. It gets busy and there's a line. Please also note that if you're over 10 minutes there's a possibility they'll charge you per person for the reservation so take time to come early because parking can be sparse. In summation everything we had was okay but there were indeed some major standouts. The mehs: the beignets (these were what were touted as the best but they were disappointing :/), the duck and waffle and the avocado toast. The HELLS YEAHS were the curry Hamburg and the shakshuka. The sauces on these were chefs kiss. Highly recommend. For drinks please note they only have mimosas, wine, and beers. So no cocktails. If you do get the mimosas get the yuzu one! Special shout out to our server Vi! Made sure we had a great time! There are tables outside and in but it's very bestie brunch vibes or date brunch-y. All in all is this place worth the hype? Only if you get the right things and don't have to wait too long in line. It's also kinda pricy so given all that make sure to get the right things to make it worth it.
There's a lot of hype around this place and I don't really know why after eating here. Our server was rude and the food tastes forever to come out. Another problem I have is that the menu literally says, "Substitutions or modifications are politely declined!" That is insane that they won't make accommodations for people. What if they have allergies? Let people enjoy the food how they want/like to. It's not your call. We started with the Beignets. These were very dry and tasted old. They serve the black sesame mascarpone and matcha cream in one dish, which stinks because the matcha cream is not good. I got the Duck & Waffle. The duck was easily the best thing here that we had and the passionfruit guava sauce (made in-house) was light and lovely. Unfortunately, my waffle came out cold and when I told my server, she said, with no emotion, "I'm sorry about that." Then, turned around and LEFT. They didn't fix my dish at all. It was insanely rude. My guy got the Latke Egg Benedict, which stunk of fish and tasted like old fish. We had to send it back for them to remake and it came out better the second time. Very concerning they would serve old salmon to their customers when you could smell it had gone bad. The latka wasn't too thick, which was nice, but the dish didn't have much flavor to it and wasn't anything special. The duck is the only good thing on the menu, but it is not worth dealing with the issues like rude staff and rotten fish.
The beignets were good and our brunch entrees were nicely prepared. Ambiance is nice with an open air concept. The only thing is parking is very difficult and the service times were slow.
Between Us is such a cute and trendy brunch spot in San Diego. We stopped by on a Saturday morning with our 2-year-old and didn't have reservations. Luckily, they were able to seat us at the large communal table near the entrance, which was totally fine. The place had a really fun, youthful vibe and was pretty busy with lots of younger groups. Since we had our toddler with us, we kept things pretty simple and shared the Two Eggs Your Way Breakfast and the Cornbread & Co, along with a Tiramisu Matcha Latte. I was really excited about the matcha since I saw quite a few people ordering it, but unfortunately it was probably my least favorite thing. The matcha flavor wasn't very strong and the drink tasted a little watery to me. The food was much better. Even though the breakfast was pretty basic, it was really good for sharing with a toddler. The toast with butter and jam and the crispy potatoes were definitely the stars. The fried chicken that came with the cornbread was also really tasty. Service was a little slow. It took about 15 minutes for our server to come by and take our drink and food order, and the food took a bit to come out after that. So I wouldn't necessarily come here if you're looking for a quick breakfast spot. It's definitely more of a sit-down, take-your-time kind of spot. This neighborhood is street parking, so plan accordingly. I'd also highly recommend making a reservation, especially on weekends, since it seems like this place can get pretty busy.
I came here because my friend has been here a few times and really likes it, so I was excited to finally try it. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd come back. First off, parking is a pain. You're lucky if you can find street parking, and since this place gets pretty busy, I'd recommend making a reservation. I ordered the Mushroom Chazuke with Poached Egg ($24) because my friend recommended it. Honestly, this is so not something I would normally order, but I figured I'd give it a try. It's definitely Japanese comfort food, but to me it was basically rice, mushrooms, and broth/stock with a poached egg... for $24. I just couldn't justify the price for what you actually get, and honestly felt like it was a waste of money. I also tried the Brûléed French Toast with Poached Pears and Cream Cheese. Unfortunately, a lot of the top was pretty burnt and tasted bitter. I'm not sure if that's intentional with the brûléed style, but the brunt parts were too bitter for my taste. Overall, it wasn't the best French toast I've had, and for $20 for just one slice, it was overpriced. For drinks, I had the Butterscotch Matcha Latte, which was okay but nothing memorable. My friend got the Yuzu-Ade with sparkling water and said it tasted pretty flat and wasn't sparkling enough. Overall, Between Us is basically brunch with a Japanese twist, which sounds right up my alley because I love both Japanese food and brunch food. Unfortunately, the food just didn't do it for me. Between the high prices, portions, and flavors, I didn't find anything that made me want to come back. Honestly, I probably should've just ordered the Duck & Waffle instead haha. That's the one thing I'm kinda kicking myself for not trying. Maybe that would've changed my mind, but based on what I had, I wouldn't return.
Soo good!! Cute little brunch spot perfect for a weekend bite. We made reservations for our party of 4 so were seated immediately. Our waitress/server was super sweet and gave us her recommendations and they were awesome. We started with the sweet beignets. They were light and airy - we liked the sesame over the matcha although they were both good. The mushroom appetizer was amazing and fried to perfection! The yuzu sauce and garlic crisps paired so well with it. The star of the show for me was the chazuke with grilled fish. It reminded me of the simple meals in Japan. I would definitely order it again. The butterscotch matcha latte was sooo good too. I ordered that with regular milk. I will come back in the future with my family!
Super cute brunch spot in North Park, and we were glad we got a reservation because seems like this place can have quite a wait. Parking can also be challenging around here. The dishes seem to be inspired by other ethnic cuisines, but hey, they work! I like that they offer complementary sparkling water as an option, which was very refreshing with the recent heat wave. I also got a sparkling Yuzu-ade and was pleasantly surprised at how fresh the Yuzu flavor tasted without having an artificial aftertaste linger in my mouth. We got the beignets and cornbread for the table to share. The beignets were served with a matcha and sesame whipped dip, and I enjoyed the matcha dip better but both were flavorful. The cornbread was only one piece and came with a piece of fried chicken, which was less ideal to share between 8 girls. Maybe because I didn't get much of a bite with the cornbread , but I preferred the beignets more. For my main dish, I got the mushroom chazuke because I was craving something brothy. They serve the broth on the side so you can control how much broth you want to pour over the rice. This was very tasty and had a very earthy and umami flavor from the different types of mushrooms. I wasn't a fan of the garlic chips on top of the rice and picked them out. It did become rather overwhelming halfway into the meal, so I might recommend sharing this and another item to break up the flavors. I was also considering the hamburger curry, but after trying my friend's, it was nothing to write home about. Overall, the ambience and service were great, food was tasty, and I would return to try some of the other items on the menu in the future.
Food: 9.5/10 Service: 9/10 Ambiance: 9/10 between us has always been somewhere ive been wa to go to, but I've been to in San Diego. Find you I'm a really big brunch person. For reference, my favorite place is sugar and scribe. there's a mushroom rice dish and it was my favorite. I love how all their dishes weren't salty and honestly everything we got fit my taste profile. All my friends got matchas and a black sesame latte. Those were really good as well as someone who loves Matcha, it really hit the spot so I will most definitely be coming back. We also got the eggs Benedict and the beignets. Everything was so yummy.
Searched up brunch spots and Between Us was the first place that came up, so we decided to give it a try. TLDR: terrible host We were told they needed to clean a table for our party of 2, so we waited a bit before being seated. As we walked to our table, I noticed there were plenty of open 2 tops, but the host with silver/purple hair sat us right next to a group of 5. It felt cramped, and the group was talking so loudly that I could barely hear myself think. We asked the host if we could move to one of the open tables for more space but it seemed like such a big deal, he had a terrible attitude. He said that a party was going to be sat at the one he was setting up... but the others remained open?? They ended up seating the incoming party at a completely different table. By the end of our meal, the tables we asked about were still unoccupied. What made it even more frustrating was watching another party of 2 come in and get the option of choosing any of the open tables, which was never offered to us. We ordered the beignets, duck & waffle, latke egg benedict, yuzuade, and matcha latte tiramisu. They were out of the latke, so they substituted it with a waffle. The yuzu hollandaise was extremely sour and tasted off, almost like it had gone bad, and the texture was really mushy. The matcha latte tiramisu was also such a letdown. It tasted like water even after I mixed in the foam, so I asked our server to take it off the bill. We ended up spending $76 for food that was just okay and service that was pretty disappointing. I wouldn't waste my time coming back, especially considering how rude and difficult the staff made a simple request to move tables feel. I had high hopes after seeing all the other reviews, but unfortunately, my experience didn't live up to them.
Visit July 2026 Bougie breakfast time lol! Invited by some family members who like this place a lot. Consider me sold. Food: Beignets-fluffy, come out hot, though not evenly sugared. I watched the table carefully pick around this one lone barely sugared piece. Ngl, I like the ones at Disneyland better. Both me and a daughter ordered the Chunky Avocado Toast with a poached egg, we both felt that the toast was a little tough. Good avocado spread and the egg oozed well. I tried their house hot sauce with it but wasn't too impressed with it. I also ordered a side of the House Potatoes. These were awesome. Crisp outside but not over done , well seasoned. Totally recommend. Wife ordered the Mushroom Chazuke. Mix of seasonal mushrooms. She liked it a lot. Tastes some of the mushrooms. Earthy but not overbearingly so. The wild rice and poached egg made for a pretty good mix. Other daughter got the Curry Hamburg. She likes her curry, especially Japanese curry. While she did not get transported to Tokyo she did give it a thumbs up. This place is pretty busy and I was fairly impressed with the attentiveness of our waitress. Waters kept full which was handy as it was a bit hot and my car was a good walk away. Would like to visit again and try other menu items.
Really cute brunch place in North Park. I got the Pomelo salad to share and curry hamburg. Salad was refreshing. I enjoyed the curry hamburg, and it was a big portion that filled me up quick. We also shared the beignets and it came with black sesame/matcha dip. They were light and fluffy and paired well with the dips. Best eaten fresh as they cool down pretty quick. For drinks, I got the Matcha Tiramisu Latte and Matcha Yuzu Mimosa. The latte was more matcha. I didn't really taste any tiramisu in my drink, but the matcha was good. It definitely is on the low sweet. The mimosa was good as well. At first, wasn't sure if the flavor would pair well as a mimosa, but it was good! The matcha and yuzu blend well. Someone else had a yuzu mimosa, but it too sour for my taste. The yuzu with the matcha definitely helps reduce the citrus sour taste. Service was friendly and fast. Since it was a busy Sunday, they already explained in advance that food might take longer to come out, but it didn't feel very long. When I went, we had a live musician playing. Personally for me, it was a bit loud, so it was hard to hear everyone at my table. But, Im sure other people appreciated and enjoyed the live music. I just prefer quieter environments, and that's my personal taste. I would be willing to come back for a special occasion again.
Cute spot! Came on a Fri for lunch at 11:30. We had made reservations but we probably could have gotten seated right away even though the place was decently busy. The space is also much larger than I thought it'd be. They have tables for larger groups and smaller two person tables. I got the simple toast and made it "extraordinary" (matcha cream and berries). Also added a side of chicken patties. My friend got the burger and beignets. The toast was delicious!! It's a housemade shokupan that was perfectly fluffy and had a nice buttery taste. The matcha cream was really light and the berries were good. The chicken patties you could tell we're homemade and had a light sweetness to them. Very good. I think the only downside was the beignets. If you've had them in new Orleans these were a sad comparison. The dough didn't have that much flavor and the inside texture was light but the outside was a dry, crusty texture. The matcha and black sesame dip it came with was nice though. Service was a little haphazard but friendly. I'd come back and try out some other items.
Reviews are largely positive. Many highlight the creative fusion menu, especially the beignets with matcha and sesame dips, and enjoy the welcoming ambiance.

My sister and I found this new brunch spot through social media and decided to give it a try -- so glad we did! I didn't have any expectations going in, but ended up loving everything about it. We ordered the shakshuka and the beignets, and both were very delicious! The fish in the shakshuka worked so well with all the other flavors -- super tasty and really well done. The beignets were light and fluffy, and the matcha mascarpone cream with the black sesame chantilly paired very well with the beignets. Such a good sweet treat to end the meal! Definitely planning to come back and try more of the menu! read more

I don't even know where to begin with reviewing this place. everything was INCREDIBLE. first of all, I absolutely love this place's mission with everything being locally sourced & the menu really highlighting where everything comes from! not only was the food incredible, but I am always happy to support a place that supports other small local businesses. as for the service, everyone was INCREDIBLY friendly. we felt super welcomed from the moment we came in & we were never left without having everything we needed! :) we started with the house-made beignets which were out of this world. they were so hot, fresh, & flavorful they literally melted in our mouths. the combination of the matcha & sesame creams that came with them were fantastic as well. I got the steak and eggs which quite honestly was probably the best steak & eggs I have ever had. the steak itself was so incredibly juicy and tender and the eggs were fluffy and flavorful. the potatoes WERE SO. GOOD-- crispy & salty & YUM! the bread was incredible & the jam & butter accompanied it perfectly. my boyfriend got the breakfast tartine which I didn't have the chance to try, but he won't stop raving about it. the bread it came on was house made & he said he wishes he could've brought a loaf home! to drink, i got the black sesame latte & he got the tiramisu matcha. both were excellent and I could tell a ton of care went into crafting both drinks. the ONLY thing I would change about this place is that they don't have espresso for lattes, but this is just personal preference. :) fantastic spot for matcha lovers regardless! overall, I seriously can't rave enough about this place. do yourself a favor and go support this awesome spot!!!! read more

Had a great experience being my first time here. Went to have brunch with my sister right as the place opened before the rush came! We ordered the beignets, matcha tiramisu, cookie crunch French toast, hojicha latte, and pancakes with fruits. The beignets were perfectly doughy (reminded me of New Orleans) with a slight crunch on the outside, perfect with the creamy matcha and black sesame spread! The matcha tiramisu was so creamy and refreshing, and the hojicha latte was perfect, it reminded of our trip to Japan. The lemon curd on our French toast and pancakes was very tart, it overpowered the fruits and our meal, I would probably have it on the side next time. Overall, the service was so welcoming and top notched! They constantly check in on us and ensure their guests are taken care of. I also enjoyed their Stranger Things decor during the Halloween season. The shop is pretty big with plenty of sitting, but keep in mind that it'll get busy around brunch time, so I would recommend going right when they open to secure seating. 10/10 would recommend this place for brunch! I've yet to try the rest of their menu. read more

Came back here with a friend who wanted to treat me to lunch for my bday. The owner Mac was so nice and comp'd me French toast with matcha sauce and fruit for my bday. It was so good. I love the food and service here so I've updated my review with 5 stars. We ordered the beignets and shaksuka (catch of the day was cod.) The beignets were not your traditional beignets from New Orleans. It's their version which was crispy like a Thai donut on the outside but light and chewy inside. The chewiness reminded me of mochi. The matcha and black sesame sauce were divine! Not too sweet and creamy . I could just eat the sauce and be happy LOL. I truly enjoyed the Shaksuka. It's a tomato broth with poached egg and cod. The flakiness of the cod really complimented the egg in the broth. And the focaccia bread dipped in the broth was amazing . Their focaccia bread was crispy and light not dense like the traditional type. Only thing that bothered me were the flies. Since it's an open restaurant, there were flies. But they have the fans for the tables which helped keep them away. Nonetheless I still highly recommend this place. read more

The food was good & the vibes were nice. I was going to order the pancakes but they said they ran out of pancakes?? Matcha was a strong 9/10 & loved the beignets with matcha cream! Went the second day they were open so i'm sure some things were still being worked out service wise. Will come back! read more

We got there at 10am on a Saturday morning & it was super busy! The ambiance was very lively and we loved the Stranger Things theme! Heard a lot about this place on TikTok so we had to try it out :) Got seated fast at the bar. We wanted to try the beignets with the matcha and black sesame cream. It was honestly the best thing we got there & it came out fast as well. The food itself was okay me and my friend both ordered the curry hambrug. I asked the waitress if it was tomato based and she went to double check. They said no so I ordered and the taste had a big tomato flavor..... I still ate it though I was so hungry :( Everything else was good but the curry itself; was too ketchup like according to my friend. The mushroom chazuke was okay.... Wouldn't recommend. Also my drink took forever :( We were done eating and even ordered another beignet to go. It still wasn't done so we paid and asked for the drink to go. It was just okay too. Would come back to order beignets to go and if I was back in town maybe try other foods.... read more

Hi there, thank you so much for visiting and for taking the time to…
this place has such a great vibe. i love the open concept, the food was incredible, and the interior design was incredibly well done and beautiful. we got there at about 1:30pm on a sunday afternoon and were seated in 5 minutes! food took a bit of a while to come out but we were catching up so it was no biggie. service was somewhat friendly, but the ambiance and food made up for it! read more

Great to bring kids. A bit pricey but once in awhile and you're looking for something delicious... it is SO GOOD. Their matcha is naturally flavored with fruit- I ordered a strawberry one and wished it came in a larger size and to go cup. Wow. I order a mushroom broth.. order the crispy chili garlic flakes... COULD NOT RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH. I still dream of it. Their music was also great. I highly recommend this place. Aesthetic. Friendly vibe. Impeccable service. Well done, people. Well done. read more

Place is very beautiful and great for pics. But the matcha was disappointing, tasted just like milk even though the color is great. I was so sad. Food is okay, I got the avocado and mushroom toast. It was very hard to eat. We arrived when they opened, they said beignets would be ready by 9:30, so we waited. But by the time it came, the server told us they were still not available :( They have a beautiful and very Instagram perfect aesthetic, but the food does not match how well they look. read more

We went for the first time today and had a wonderful experience. Very clean restaurant, great quality food, and vibey atmosphere. Our portion sizes were the perfect amount and our server was very kind and helpful. We enjoyed the Two Eggs Your Way, Avocado Toast, and Latke Eggs Benedict. Our matchas were the right amount of sweet and authentic. Would absolutely recommend and come again! read more

I honestly would rate this 3 stars but feel badly leaving bad reviews for restaurants that really make an effort with their ingredients. The ambience is nice, TVs make zero sense in the space, but besides that very cute. Service was very nice, and she was pleasant and attentive throughout the meal. The failure was in the food, Drinks: literally almost took a half hour to arrive and one was wrong when it finally arrived, they were average, matcha was the better one. Beignets: okay, nothing to write home about, not crispy or crunchy at all on the edges, just soft more like donut texture, and strangely not hot or warm even though they kept flying out of the kitchen, accompanied by 2 sauces, that were again just okay. Crab omelette: eggs on the wet side leaking out the sides. Mushroom chazuke: under seasoned, one note, but mushrooms cooked well- must get the chili sauce to help this one along US breakfast: rice was a disaster, mushy, under seasoned and the tomato sauce bland, and not hot at all, kind of warm. The sausage was the best part of the entire breakfast and was absolutely delicious- hot, juicy and well seasoned, the fried chicken was good too, and so was the bacon. I think the menu is a great concept, but execution falls short, things just need more flavor, to be heated properly, and salt missing in nearly everything. I hope they are able to round out the edges with time, we do appreciate their commitment to local products and produce. read more

Absolutely no! Ordered on door dash for my lunch break at work, what a horror story. Cut into the chicken and it looked a little pink to me, I thought hmm maybe it just looks like that. Immediately spit it out! It was so gooey. My stomach hurts. The matcha is also not worth coming back for. Not horrible but not great. Can't speak to the ambiance of the place itself as I didn't go, my door dasher did. The only reason I gave two stars and not one was the cornbread, it was pretty good. Not good enough for me to give it a higher rating though. Beware! read more

Hi there, thank you so much for sharing your feedback and we’re truly…
honestly ive been to so many restos in general in my lifetime and i have never had such a bad experience. maybe just the time we went was bad??? but we got seated pretty quick in 10min or so, but LONG WAIT for our food to be made... dude never came to even communicate that our order is taking long we waited an hour and half for our food and just left... we would've waited almost two hours for fried rice and eggs... awk never had such an experience at a restaurant before and the restsurant wasn't even full... dj was cool and the servers r nice but i just would not recommend on a saturday or sunday if ur even thinking of going. never going back lol id rather make my own eggs and fried rice and brekkie/brunch food. go here if you want to waste time, food looks good but overall it's pricier and better to go somewhere else read more

This place is a few weeks' old, and it has great potential to stay. Great service, food, and ambiance. We ordered the warm and fluffy beignets with matcha and sesame mascarpone cream, iced matcha latte with strawberry puree, avocado toast, and two eggs with potatoes and sausage. All were solid, imo. The matcha was legit and not overtly sweet. The beignets were the star. I noticed every table had ordered it so of course, I had to. Delicious! Reminded me of the beignets from Disneyland. If I wanted a sweet fix, I would definitely come back. The rest of the dishes tasted fresh, healthy and balanced. It is definitely a place we'll be coming back. read more

Went here after seeing it blow up on social media. Was expecting an amazing brunch because of all the good reviews but imo the food was lacking. Good for pictures, but not very tasty - especially given the price. Service: polite but VERY slow. Took slightly over an hour to receive food after ordering. No one around us was eating either Matcha latte: extremely watery. Was expecting ceremonial grade, strong matcha and found it really ironic that the matcha was so mid when the menu says they "obsess" over the details of the matcha. Maybe it was sitting around for a bit and the ice melted?? Curry hamburg: way too salty Duck & waffle: would have been very tasty if the duck wasn't so dry :( read more

Came here today to celebrate my birthday with my beautiful friends! A couple of us saw this spot on an Instagram reel and decided it would be the perfect place to meet. Parking was a bit tricky even though we arrived early, but that's expected since the area is pretty busy. We all agreed the signage could be a little more visible, but once inside, the ambience completely won me over. The space is open, bright, and stylish, with those large garage-style windows that let in plenty of fresh air. It felt so inviting! I was the first to arrive and was greeted warmly right away. The staff seated me while I waited for my friends, and both of our servers were incredibly friendly and patient--especially as we took our sweet time chatting before ordering (what can I say, it had been a while since we'd seen each other! ). We started with drinks: a Hojicha Latte, Pumpkin Matcha Latte, and the House Cold Brew. To share, we ordered the Beignets. OMG--those beignets were heavenly! Soft, pillowy, and dusted in powdered sugar--not overly sweet--and served with black sesame mascarpone and matcha cream. The dips were so light and airy, the perfect complement. Honestly, I could've eaten the entire plate myself alongside my Hojicha Latte (my first time trying it, and I loved that roasted green tea flavor!). For our mains: I ordered the Mushroom Chazuke, One friend had the Duck & Waffle, And another got the Breakfast Tartine. The presentation on all three dishes was beautiful. My Mushroom Chazuke was a mushroom lover's dream--loaded with different varieties of mushrooms, Koshihikari rice, garlic chips, chives, and a delicate mushroom dashi. Our server poured the broth tableside, and the aroma alone was incredible. The clear broth was light yet packed with umami flavor--absolutely delicious and so comforting. The Duck & Waffle looked and smelled amazing! Crispy duck confit, passionfruit sauce, and chili crunch--my friend said it was one of her favorite dishes, and I believe her. And that Breakfast Tartine was picture-perfect: a thick slice of shokupan bread topped with perfectly scrambled eggs, avocado, and a glossy piece of candied bacon. Beautiful and drool-worthy! As I was opening my birthday gifts, our server noticed and surprised us with a sweet treat--a slice of that soft shokupan bread topped with matcha whipped cream, fresh berries, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Even though we were all so full, we devoured it. No regrets! Overall, I had the best experience here--friendly service, creative dishes, and the kind of food that makes you smile. I will definitely be back to try more menu items (and, of course, to get those Beignets again--they are a must!). I really wish we'd asked for both of our servers' names--they were so friendly, welcoming, and just amazing all around! read more

I STRONGLY recommend trying this gem, to start our server Vee was so sweet, he was very attentive too. As for as the food, oh my goodness the farmers salad was a 100/10 if you are craving something super fresh, this is the dish for you. It's lined with a delicious ricotta at the base of the bowl and a citrusy dressing fresh avocado chunks and cherry tomatoes I noticed it had some rustic house made croutons. The toast is also included I dipped it in the ricotta and loved that. The beignets were top tier it came with a super tasty matcha cream dipping sauce and the darker part tasted like a sweet sesame sauce and it was also super good! As far as the ambience it was so pretty with natural sunlight and a minimal organic look. read more

I've heard about this place for a while and just recently got the chance to try it. EVERYTHING I had was incredible! First of all, the decor is lovely. I went there for breakfast, and it was just the vibe. My pancakes turned out great, and the matcha was exactly what I'd expect from a good matcha. The service was excellent, everyone was so friendly! I'll definitely be coming back to try the beignets read more
This place is okay. I believe it's a pretty new so it may be five stars later if I go back. The reason I'm giving it four stars is because they have matcha and Latte on the menu and I asked for one iced and they said they can't do cold drinks yet hopefully in the future.
