I had the turkey sandwich which is delicious in house made focaccia. My husband had the ham and bean soup with extra bread. The bread is incredible and worth it to stop just down the block at their bakery to take home a loaf. No crumbs were left behind! The cafe is lively and bright with their windows and the service was so friendly. I will have to come back to try the other items.

The summer menu was still available, so I ordered the blueberry cobbler latte. The syrup was a beautiful purple color! It added just a hint of blueberry flavor to the drink but was not too sweet.

I'm not big on coffee shop beverages, but their food menu really sparked my curiosity. They had some bao bun variations on special that I absolutely needed to try. They asked that I find a seat while they prepared the food. I loved each of them so much, they were all very different from each other, but so beautifully and thoughtfully crafted. As I waited for the food, I got to soak up the ambiance, which was just as memorable and wonderful as the food. I loved the different vibes of each floor: all tranquil but still distinct. I got to people watch a couple on their first date, a father and son reunion, and a setup for a tea party. All in an enchanting atmosphere as I enjoyed my bao! Definitely try this place if you are in the area! You are sure to fall in love as I did.

The whole aesthetic is calm, intentional, and absolutely Instagram-worthy (but in the best, most authentic way). I ordered a pot of their loose-leaf Parvati's Happiness and got to enjoy it with a tea pet! Such a fun and meditative experience; watching the tea pour over the tiny ceramic figure felt both playful and peaceful. You can tell the staff genuinely care about the craft of tea; they walk you through the ritual without being pretentious. Food-wise, the miso sesame vegan bagel sandwich blew me away. The cashew chili oil cream cheese was next-level; creamy, a little spicy, and perfectly balanced with the nutty miso sesame flavor. It's one of those dishes that makes you forget it's vegan because it's just that satisfying. Customer service was wonderful too; friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. They made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. If you're into mindful tea experiences, beautiful spaces, and creative plant-based food, this spot is a must-visit. I can't wait to come back and try more!

From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome -- friendly, attentive, and clearly proud of what they're serving.

It's fresh, soft, and has that perfect balance of crisp on the outside and airy on the inside, which takes their sandwiches to another level. You can tell there's real care behind the food and the experience here. Between the great service and the quality ingredients, Young Buck Deli feels like the kind of spot you'll want to come back to again and again. Definitely a standout deli worth checking out.
