a sandwich with lettuce and tomato
Alyssa S.

I ordered them using uber eats because they had good reviews and I had never ordered with them before. I ordered the TAB (turkey bacon avocado) sandwich, a Cesar salad and a pastrami(which also had avocado). The salad was good, however upon opening my sandwich up to remove the tomatoes, I noticed my avocado was black. After my discovery, we opened up the Ruben and low and behold, the avocado was also black. Long story short, we will not be ordering here again.

Was actually in the building trying to take care of some court business then I was lured into this nice eatery by the delicious fragrances of lunch foods. Although he space is relatively small, there was no sense of that. Everything was clean and welcoming. The food was great. For their Wednesday special it was teriyaki. I enjoyed a stress free meal surrounded by soft music. If you find yourself in Renton City Hall up on the third floor, I strongly recommend stopping by the City Scene Cafe and grabbing a bite to eat.

Was looking for a quick cafe style spot and this was the winner. Had trouble finding it - located inside the Renton City Hall building on the 3rd floor. Got the Thai wrap and was given he option of having it spicy and had to say yes. The spice cane from fresh Thai chili peppers chopped up! Was delicious! All the vegetables tastes fresh and the food was prepared fast! Also great price! Large menu and wide variety of options. Great spot!

I can never make time to visit their newer location at the downtown Waterfront, so I instead took…read moresome time after work on a Tuesday around 3:30pm to drive down to Renton instead to get coffee here. My first thought getting in here was: how do they have so much real estate in here yet still make it relaxing to stay and do your WFH stuff in? It's wide, there's tons of tables and seating, and the menu - though a little hard to read since it's behind the counter. Music isn't too loud either so even more relaxing! Staff were quick in making drinks, or just long enough so you can enjoy the calming effects of the overall surroundings. I got their purple rain, which has ube hints, juniper, espresso and whole milk. This is one of their summer drinks but they still use their own brand of coffee for this one. Strong and crisp coffee here while the ube is brought out just enough to not be covered completely by the coffee. It's a sweet, soothing layer with whole milk added to make the drink a little thicker and uniform with the coffee. I felt like I was getting a sip and smell of the outside leaves with the juniper as well, so a ton of feelings in one cup that I downed in less than 3 minutes! I will come back to try their straight-up coffee drinks!

Did an airport run and my guests were hungry and we stopped here…read more This is a hidden Jim and so worth seeking it out. There is interior and a small outside eating area. we debated whether to eat outside or inside decided to eat inside. I found the interior to be clean and welcoming. The tables were quite comfortable. I appreciated that they were both savory and sweet crepes along with baguette sandwiches and salads. Fabulous choice. There was a nice variety of drink choices also. We opted for a couple of savory crêpes and one sweet one along with a couple of lattes and then a coffee Everything was absolutely delicious and the presentation was so wonderful. The coffee was served with a couple of biscuits. I was actually kind of envious of that. I love those biscuits. Next time, right?! I love supporting independent businesses, and I would definitely come here again.

Redondo Coffee and Crepes! It's what you order on a cold,…read morerainy Sunday morning (or ANY morning, LOL). Locally owned and located in a very off the main highway of Sunset Boulevard in the Renton Highlands, it is the last store in this very small strip mall. It's one of those 'secret spots' that IFKYK. Here for more than 3 years now, Redondo is Renton's place for the sweet AND savory crepe. Coffee drinks are made to order, and don't forget the option of horchata for your latte, or small smattering of Nutella for your dining selection. Be advised, there will be a small wait as they create your dish to order. You can also watch the magic happen live as the staff diligently and caringly make your plate. It's a delicious anticipation to view. For me, I got the berry crepes and a nice foamy decaf latter (presented with a side of Maria's Gamesa biscuits!!!l). Be advised, they are open until 5pm and it can get a little crowded. But thay is a small price for a little bit of warmth, artistry, and a peaceful environment. Come on over for crepes! #redondocoffeeandcrepes

On a hot, sunny day around 2:50pm on Friday I decided to make the drive here after suddenly…read moreremembering one of my foodie friends had this place several times during other weekends. I actually had to park behind the building then look at other Yelp reviews to find out that there is parking on gravel near their dumpsters closest to LaShaun Daye Hair. Though I don't know if the parking lot where this building and E Marginal Way meet can also be used...street parking in this area was scarce, contrary to most Yelp reviews I've read. Anyway, I came to an empty but very chill interior with several tables and window seating, along with some semi-quiet VPop playing near the front counter to the right-hand side of the entrance. There's a small flower display along with the cafe logo a little to the back which is perfect to take photo ops with your drink and food like I did. The menu is above the front counter and - as their logo says - they specialize in banh mi and coffee, though they have some matcha and soup options among others. Staff at the front were very quick at making my coffee as I was the only one inside. I got their 16oz egg coffee, which is one of their best sellers according to the asterisk on their menu next to the name of the drink. Very strong phin-dripped Vietnamese coffee along with condensed milk and an egg foam that gave a sweet, creamy taste to the already bitter coffee at the bottom. Drinking the egg foam first, it's a nice, thick custard-like format that the coffee does not overtake, which is good since other places I've had don't have that kind of balance. My next trip back here will have to be for another one of their coffee drinks and their banh mi sandwiches as well. I can already hear my friend telling me to get one right now as I'm writing this up!

Not often that you see bahn mi served for breakfast, but the one from here was actually pretty…read moregood. I went with the Dac Biet version, which contains cold cuts of pork ham and sausage, along with pate and mayo. The bread was super good. It was really fluffy and crackly on the outside. Some of the best bahn mi bread I've had. Also, I found the meats to be excellent as well - particularly the sausage. The portions of pate and mayo were just enough to add moisture to each bite. For around $10, it's a little expensive for bahn mi, but still reasonably priced. 8/10
