My husband is not a big fan of sweets, but after I came home with one of the fruit covered specialty pastries, he now asks me to bring one home whenever I go. My family and I have also tried some of the savory options for lunch recently. My husband had the Modena on a croissant and he said it was the best breakfast sandwich he's ever had. His only regret was not ordering two! I had the Milano. It was perfect. The chicken was light and crispy, and the veggies were fresh. The crisp bread contained just the right amount of mayo. My mom had the Minestrone, which contained a very generous amount of various vegetables and greens. She enjoyed her soup very much. My dad had the bolognese. The sauce was rich and the meat, tender. The pasta itself was, of course, excellent. Lastly, I've been several times for the coffee. The Marocchino is definitely my guilty pleasure. I've also enjoyed the brewed coffee! Looking forward to future visits!

They have good iced coffee and tea as well. I always love coming to kushala. The staff is friendly and attentive and it's overall a cozy, relaxed vibe. Happy I live so close!

I would consider this place a 3.5 or just shy of a 4. One thing I really appreciated was that the…read moreingredients all seemed fresh. We ordered two breakfast sandwiches on English muffins, one with bacon and one with sausage. You could tell the muffins were homemade and the eggs were freshly cooked. While everything was cooked well, my main issue was that it lacked flavor. The breakfast sandwich with sausage did get more flavor due to the sausage, but the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich felt like eating a warm English muffin only. There also was a very small amount of bacon which didnt help. We also ordered two coffees which were good, but tasted like any other cafe coffee. There are plenty of seating options inside and outside which is nice and the staff is friendly. I did appreciate the freshness of the ingredients so Id likely give a different item on the menu a try next time.

Ordered a special maple cold brew and it turned out so awful and curdled. For $9, I was extremely disappointed in the drink. I could barely even drink it! It was presented pretty but it curdled very fast with floating gunk. My friend had a fruity drink that she said was alright. I asked about gluten free syrups as I have a serious allergy and I was informed and when I let them know about my allergy I got a very rude "okay". Very sad about this experience as it doesn't seem like a common one compared to other reviews. Maybe I'll try it again in the future but for this price and quality, sucked.

I fell in love because while enjoying a cappuccino and breakfast sandwich, I got to watch them greet just about everyone by name, including kiddos and dogs.

They also asked about folks family, how their move went, how their work was, ect in a way that shows not only do they truly care about their customers but their customers come back over and over.
