    The Delicious Pastries
    Dania A.

    Did I just stumble upon a delicious cafe WITH wonderful customer service? That's become such a rarity these days, it's heartbreaking. I've passed by this place many times and always thought, one day I's try this cute place and today was the day. It's a quaint charming coffee shop with minimal indoor and outdoor seating but an absolutely plentiful menu. Immediately after walking in, I was greeted so warmly by the woman at the register who was more than happy to help when I asked her whether to order one drink over the other. I ended up getting the salted caramel macchiato and the chocolate croissant and I have no regrets. Everything was flavorful and high quality. There's this notion in my culture that when you're in good spirits, whatever you cook turns out delicious, and I think that's the vibe here. The staff all seemed not only cheerful but on good terms with each other, and it makes the ambience so much better. Will definitely be returning here whenever I need a break from homemade lattes.

    To go meal! So kind

    What a great cafe. While I haven't been physically there, we ordered delivery from them for lunch on a friends wedding day while we were getting ready in her hotel. They included sweet notes wishing her a good day as well as a free pistachio muffin that was incredible!!!! The Cobb salad with ranch was great, and everyone enjoyed their food as well. Little things like sweet notes and a free treat are so appreciated, lovely, and reflect a great staff. Definitely makes me want to come back & support this place even more!

    Needed something light before heading to the cruise terminal. They offer a good variety of options for breakfast (and lunch) prices are reasonable.

    The sandwich i had was so delicious. Im sup surprised that this small spot has sush delicious food. I will be coming back again definitely.

    Toasted marshmallow latte

    Such a good coffee spot. Everything tastes great,them sandwiches section are incredible, the vibe is chill, and the people who work here are really nice and friendly . I randomly stopped by once and now come back all the time.

    Cute and quick little place for coffee and breakfast before heading out for the day. Breakfast was simple but good. Sweet girls working the front.

    I really want to like this place since I live a few blocks away but my first two experiences here have not been the best. firstly the sandwiches are ok the bread is too thick and it can make the sandwiches really dry. on my second visit today i ordered an acai bowl and it was legit 75 percent sherbet and 25 percent everything else. if you're going to charge little italy prices at least make it worth it. just disappointing overall. I hope the owner reads this and makes slight changes

    Turkish Coffee

    Capri Cafe is a great casual spot right off the main drag of Little Italy. The cold brew and Turkish Coffee were both tasty and so was the quiche and sandwich. If you're looking for a late morning stop and are in Little Italy you should consider giving Capri Cafe a try.

    Capri Cafe has an address on W Ash St, but the ground level space actually faces India St in the southern end of the Little Italy neighborhood. The business is still in a soft opening phase. There were three small round tables out front on the sidewalk and the same number for inside seating. A couple of faux green walls were on opposite sides of the suite with neon signs mounted on the social media friendly backdrops. My visit occurred after I had already made some other nearby pit stops. Coffee, three smoothies, three acai bowls, and various baked goods and breakfast items were on the menu. The goal was to pick up a breakfast sandwich to take home and consume the next day. The Turkey Sausage Egg'witch was my choice which happened to be keto friendly. The sandwich was quite small and didn't fill up the takeout container in which it was placed. If you look at my photo, then you will see that charging $4.99 for this product was not a good value. The service from the worker was fine. While I can't vouch for the drinks or any other food, my brief experience at Capri Cafe only garnered a three star rating as there are plenty of higher quality choices on this street.

    Avocado Toast with arugula, feta cheese, tomato and drizzle of balsamic. Coffee was cold brew with a shot of espresso. Amazing stuff. .

    Very friendly staff and the food is great there. I had the avocado toast. Delicious. Definitely recommend this place.

    Such a beautiful place. Great atmosphere, cute environment. A bit on the small side with only 3 tables, so plan accordingly. While their menu doesn't say, they do have a vanilla chai and a spice chai available which made me extremely happy. Good variety on the menu of pasty and small sandwiches. Looks like I caught them on their soft opening. If I didn't see it on the menu, I'd never know. Staff is friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable!

    Capri Cafe is just getting underway and is under a soft opening. As a result, not all items that they intend to offer are available at the moment. I tried a few items, especially the coffee, which was really good. I had an Americano first, but when the owner, Emily, found out that I wanted a cortado, but wasn't on the menu, she came out from the back and whipped one up for me! I have to say, we'll done Emily for that delicous and smooth cortadito. For eat, I had the bacon and egg breakfast sandwich on a round croissant. It arrived piping hot and was very tasty. In addition, I had a scrumptious coconut doughnut filed with luscious custard and chocolate filled Bomboloni or Italian doughnut. They were both great, but that coconut doughnut was total bliss. It offered great texture and flavors. A must try. All of Capri's baked goods are from a local baker. They plan to have Acai bowls and more menu items coming soon. The service is super friendly and inviting. They plan to offer inside and outside seating. I look forward to returning.

    VISIT THIS CAFE!!! Our early morning flight arrived around 8am and we were looking for a quick and easy stop for some breakfast and drinks early on a Friday morning. Not looking for a sit down because we had some other places to be, just a quick stop. SO GLAD we stopped into Capri Cafe - it was perfect and just what we needed. Food: excellent - we loved the bacon egg and cheese croissants! Drinks: lots of options (and some syrups not listed on the menu yet) People: couldn't have been nicer! They even recommended some places for us to go around town and welcomed us out-of-towners so warmly to the city. So glad this new little place is here - San Diego, keep this one around!

    Hawaiian iced latte, açaí bowl, Belgium waffle, and a summer drink! All were tasty.

Parking is a bit of a pain bit of you are in waking distance or come early enough it shouldn't be an issue. Sometimes they run out of items if you come later in the day. They have a special Bagel of the month, so make sure to ask what it is. They have several bagel flavors, and different flavor cream cheese spreads. I love the habanero bagel, it's one of my favorites, but just be warned it is very hot. Definitely don't eat it without something cold to drink. They also have a breakfast sandwich called the San Diego which is a favorite of several people I know. You chose the bagel you want it with and they add fried eggs, bacon, cheese and aioli. I highly reccomend it. I've not had a lot of their deinis, but i did order the cinna-bee which has honey, cinnamon, espresso and milk. I thought it was good and would order it again. Definitely check them out and try some of their bagels, or perhaps one of their sandwiches.

    The award for BEST coffee during my recent trip to San Diego easily goes to Spill the Beans Coffee…read moreand Bagels. I tried several coffee shops along Seaport Village--some stood out for creative flavors, others for strong espresso--but Spill the Beans nailed the perfect balance every single time. We went back multiple times, and the consistency was impressive. My go-to was an iced "Basic Sitch" with oat milk, while my husband loved the warm "Cinna-bee." Both were incredible. The espresso quality was top-tier, and the drinks were made quickly without sacrificing flavor. Our only regret? Discovering this place halfway through the trip. Had we found it sooner, we would've been there every single day. This review is solely based on the coffee, as we didn't get a chance to try their breakfast sandwiches, though the options looked appetizing. This particular location isn't a fully built-out coffee shop, but it's perfect for grabbing your drink and taking a stroll along Seaport Village or, enjoying it at a nearby bench or outdoor seating area.

The sweetness of drink over powers the matcha, the matcha tasted very watery and grassy. Overall I wished the drink was more smooth, I did get oat milk and I tasted that more than the overall drink. I would say maybe switching the oat milk for a more smooth consistency like chobani oat. Maybe lowering the sweetness on the banana pudding would provide a balance with the flavors. The atmosphere of the place was nice but dining area was tight and there wasn't much walking space. Overall, I was a little disappointed for the price since it wasn't what I anticipated.

    Finally got to try this cute Japanese cafe we saw on TikTok, and it did not disappoint!…read more Service: [5/5] The two girls who helped us were so sweet and made the whole experience. We were seated at the bar, which ended up being such a vibe--we got to chat with the girl behind the bar and watch her make lattes and desserts right in front of us. That kind of interaction really sets this place apart. Price: [4.5/5] It's on the pricier side, but honestly it feels fair given the quality of food you're getting. You can taste where your money is going. Food/Drinks: [5/5] Matcha Latte -- We shared one, extra sweet at my request, and it was perfect. Exactly what I was hoping for. Chef Soichi's Karaage -- We had this as an appetizer and my boyfriend made a point to say this is the closest he's had to traditional Japanese karaage. High praise from someone who's passionate about his Japanese culture. Hayashi Omurice -- This is their most popular dish and it's easy to see why. The demi-glaze has a really unique flavor that ties the whole dish together beautifully. This was my pick and I'd order it again without hesitation. Guratan -- My boyfriend's order, and it was incredibly creamy and delicious. We were both too stuffed for dessert by the end, which says a lot about the portion sizes. Ambience: [5/5] The restaurant is small, but honestly that's part of what makes it so charming. Pink everywhere with wooden accents and cherry blossoms throughout (very fitting)--it's cozy, homey, and just really well put together. The intimate size adds to the appeal rather than taking away from it. Overall Experience: [5/5] Hatsuzakara was such a wonderful first experience. Yes, we waited about 30 minutes to be seated arriving at 7:30 on a Friday night but for a waitlist-only spot this small, that's actually a pretty reasonable wait by San Diego standards. The food, the atmosphere, and the staff more than made up for it. Already looking forward to coming back to try the curry and work through their dessert menu.

I feel like everything looked really good, so it was hard to decide what to order. The dishes have small portion size despite the price. I think this kinda helps in that you have room to eat dessert! The brown sugar Okinawa tea was good but the after taste of the sugar was not good. They kept the tea pot warm, and they served oat milk on the side. Karaage had too much chicken skin for my preference. Guratan was penne pasta and not macaroni as specified in the menu. Yakisoba could have used more chicken. Omurice had the more flavor and the egg was really good. I want to try naporitan next time because of the tomato based sauce. Of the desserts I tried, the parfait was most enjoyable because of the fruit with ice cream. The mushi pudding was good; it was the thick and "hard" type of flan. I want to try kakigori next time because I saw their shaved ice machine was legit. Parking - free street parking only. Be prepared to walk up/downhill. Credit card/apple pay accepted Bathroom is only one room in the back. THE SEAT IS WARM. This was a nice gem to find in this part of town.
