She told me to pick a table and pointed to an area. So I picked one by the window. She said with attitude "no, obviously not a big table" no, its not obvious because you were not busy and there were so many empty tables. I ordered an egg omelet with fried veggies and ham. The egg was fried thin, not fluffy. Veggies were weird, it had tomato. I'm use to onion and bell peppers. latte was mid. I do not recommend.

We still enjoyed it, the vibes were just interesting? They also don't have ketchup. They charge for hot sauce but don't inform you prior. It's also very spicy green salsa. Overall, I enjoyed my toast and cup of coffee. Cool place.

First off, Yelp and the Gustos' website say that it is closed on Saturdays, but Google Maps said it…read morewas open. We called and thankfully it was open. Not sure if this was because they were closed yesterday for Good Friday, but consider calling if going on a Saturday! The place was busy, but they were fully staffed and service was fast and our drinks/food came out quickly. A live band played outside, but it was acoustic and the volume was very reasonable. I wanted to buy locally roasted coffee beans for home and this turned out to be the best place to buy them. I bought two 8oz bags, $14 and $15 respectively. Compare that to 787 Coffee that wanted $30 for a similar sized bag (even more for their alcohol infused beans!). Gustos also sold 2lb bags of beans if you really need to make a lot of coffee. Sadly, the roasting date was not stamped on any of the bags. The cold brew coffee was good. The French toast was mediocre -- the bread was sliced too thin, with very little batter on the exterior, and zero saturation inside the bread. The fresh blueberries and grated coconut were nice, but the syrup tasted cheap. My wife had the Gustos and it was delicious. We saw others with avocado toast and it looked tasty too. We bought little bags of dried plantains on a whim at the counter -- turns out they were $3 each. Otherwise, prices were very reasonable.

The Quesito was like a croissant with pastry cream, in the shape of a Danish pastry. The croissant dough was full of buttery aroma and flavor -- so flakey! The Apple Tart used the same buttery and flakey croissant base, and with a touch of pastry cream underneath the apple slices; I have not had an Apple Tart like this. After my breakfast, I ordered a Broccoli Sandwich to-go for lunch later. The focaccia bread was deliciously salty. I almost forgot I was eating broccoli.

This was my first time seeing baklava become a victim of fusion treatment, and "victim" might be the wrong word -- because this experiment was a sweet success. The coffee shop has a cool, open-space layout -- perfect for working, studying, or hanging out. The barista was almost too cool to be bothered, like how dare I interrupt his vibe by ordering a black iced coffee. Or maybe it was just the language barrier. Either way, the back-and-forth made me laugh, and somehow I left with a bag of whole coffee beans lol Bonus: they sell matcha tools so you can make your own matcha at home.
