    Iced latte and berry yogurt pastry
    Kate B.

    Very good lattes and delightful pastries. The berry yogurt pastry tastes exactly like a toaster strudel from my childhood. I've gone back 3x. Service is great. Give them a try!

    Delicious iced oat milk chai :)

    You cannot find a nicer, more helpful staff. Everyone is so kind and personable. The food and drinks are great, always just what you're looking for. Drinks are made super well. The ambiance is not to be beat. Art on the walls, light music playing and live music one night a week. A nice chill, not to miss place while you're in the area.

    Nice comfortable place to get a coffee in the afternoon. Lots of space inside, comfortable couches, tables. A few people working on computers others meeting friends. Had the cherry and Greek yogurt danish. Very good, husband had the Tiramisu. Do yourself a favor and skip the chain coffee places and head here! They sell Beer and Wine as well.

    Almond croissant and iced Americano.

    I'm visiting the area and was looking for the closest cafe. The iced americano was perfect and the almond croissant was warm and flaky. The outdoor seating is pretty quiet and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Thank you very much Cafe Arts!

    What a great addition to the neighborhood! I've passed by this place a couple times and was wondering when it would be open... and today was finally the day! The cold brew I ordered was delicious and very reasonably priced- I love that they don't charge extra for the variety of milk options offered (whole, almond, half and half, and oat). They also had a great assortment of pastries, baked goods, and sweets. I tried a couple different ones and they tasted fresh. The staff was super friendly and patient while I changed my mind on what I wanted to order multiple times haha. I also love that there's indoor and outdoor seating. This will be my go to spot from now on!

    Really enjoyed checking out the new space! I am so happy I came across this newly opened coffee shop/cafe! The interior is clean and lovely, with ample seating. The staff was friendly and attentive. A local artist is featured in house covering most of the wall space. Lots of great natural light and nice vibe. Coffee and tea: quality is always appreciated, and it's obvious that's a priority here. A local roaster supplies the coffee, sourcing from various regions and small farms, while Hugo tea is represented as the in-house tea brand. Proper ceremonial grade matcha and some wonderful blends in plastic free tea bags. I love some of the other drink offerings like kombucha, and canned drinks. Bites: I had a few of the small bites, by a French bakery which were very good. Everything seemed fresh and they have a GF option. Enjoyed the abundant patio seating and shade available. Lastly- drinking water is RO, which feels like a perk!

    Over priced average coffee and pastries. I won't be back. Way to much competition in that area for average at best coffee and food

    What a terrific night. The menu is very diverse, giving you lots of options to mix and match which…read morewe took advantage of tonight. First, I must commend the staff at the restaurant. Misty was our server and she was so pleasant, engaged and professional. She took the time to have a lovely chat with us and that was so nice. Also, I ordered a Lemon Drop martini and it was so wonderful that I asked if I could talk to the bartender. I Didn't get her name but she was so nice! She Gave us the recipe, the process and stayed for a lovely chat. Oh, and BTW, the food was great! We mixed a bunch of things ( mussels, Brussels, tacos and peppers) and all were terrific. With the exception of the peppers. Not great and Misty took care of us when we gave her that feedback. Overall, a 10 of 10 for service and 9 of 10 for food! Go there, you'll love it!

    Very disappointed by the false advertising. Boca promotes that they serve lunch, but if you visit…read moreon the weekend, you'll quickly find out that they only offer a brunch menu with very limited lunch options. We specifically came expecting a lunch experience based on their advertising and were frustrated to discover that wasn't the case. There's a big difference between serving lunch and serving brunch with a few lunch items sprinkled in. Restaurants should be transparent about what they actually offer so customers can make informed decisions before visiting. If you're looking for a true lunch menu on the weekend, this may not be the place for you.

    I was stationed in NAPOLI for 3 years while serving in the United States Navy…read more I will be the first to tell you that most pizza restaurants are NOT even close to the authentic Neopolitan Pizza this restaurant makes. The ingredients are the reason this restaurant will become my go to place for AMAZING AUTHENTIC NAPOLITANO PIZZA in the future. While we tried the restaurant for the first time, I couldn't contain my enjoyment and while my wife and I were eating I played my favorite Italian music off my phone, as loud as I could, first (Tu Vuo Fa 'L' Americano), and then (NAPOLI) by Nino D'angelo. My wife was concerned with the volume as she thought it would upset the patrons and the restaurant staff, but it did the opposite....everyone was singing along with a smile on their face...recognizing that I was having the time of my life, bringing back memories of BELLA NAPOLI! Very authentic cuisine and excellent service!

    My wife took me to Bella Napoli this evening to celebrate Father's Day…read more We had 6:00 PM reservations for an inside table. We were seated in the back next to a serving/drinking station across from a group of 6 10 year old girls...whose parents were eating outside. The noise level was so unbearable that we asked to be moved outside, which they accommodated. But the noise level was strike number 1. After we were seated outside we waited. And waited. And waited more, roughly 20 minutes before we finally caught the attention of a waitress. Strike 2. My wife order the white bean soup for an appetizer and the Branzino. I ordered the special...Veal Osso Buco over risotto The white bean soup was delicious. 4 out of 5 stars. The Branzino was a little fishy tasting, which it should not. We order Branzino all the time and it's never tasted fishy. But the most disturbing part of the meal was the bait and switch using Pork in place of Veal for the Veal Osso Buco. Yes you read that right. It was Pork. Not Veal. The meat was gray, fatty and not very tender. Veal is tan or light brown, extremely tender and very lean. Charging $49.95 for Veal Osso Buco would have been reasonable. Trying to pass off Pork as Veal for that price is down-right criminal. Strike 3. AN ABSOLUTE HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.! WE WILL NEVER GO BACK!!! Response to Ceasar D: the parent's of the 6 little girls (who you must admit were quite loud and unsupervised) were sitting inside. All of the children's parents and some other adults, about 14 adults in total, were seated outside. So please don't try and pass this off as if they were celebrating Father's Day. They weren't even sitting with their "Fathers". It simply demonstrates poor restaurant management. The wait for a server outside was so long, my wife had actually suggested we leave. I truly wish we had. Regarding the Branzino, if it HAD been fresh it would not have tasted fishy! As for the Osso Buco, I'm a culinary expert and know the difference between Veal and Pork. I knew it was pork as soon as I tasted it! The fat was a dead giveaway. Perhaps now that this has been posted, you'll start using veal or be truthful and simply let your patrons know you're serving Pork Osso Buco! I stand by my original post.

    What an absolute gem of a restaurant. The ambiance is artsy, whimsical, fun--and it all just works…read more Really well. Our server, Juliana, provided absolute perfection. She was bright, effervescent, eager to please, extremely knowledgeable about every drink and food item on the menu, always present when needed but never hovering. She has perfected her craft and it made for a wonderful experience. The menu is written with flair and verve, and every offering seems irresistible. We wanted to try everything, but of course couldn't, so we made do with a couple of their signature cocktails (wonderful), a flatbread appetizer (also wonderful) and the very delicious meat loaf and the gemelli pasta entrees. I 10 out of 10 in every respect. We were quite concerned that we were the only patrons in the restaurant during our entire meal. It was early on a Tuesday evening in low season, but still. I hope more folks discover Wink Wink as it would be a shame to lose such a treasure. I would think they might want to consider offering a happy hour to boost things a bit. On the other hand, they could be doing very well and we just hit an off night. Go. Try it. The whole experience will be very entertaining with the art and whimsy of the decor and the menu. Great vibes. and the service and food were wonderful.
