I woke up with a very specific craving for mochi, and my dear husband gave in and drove me 20…read moreminutes to Crystal Bakery. We ended up getting two strawberry cream mochi, one mango cream mochi, and the mango pomelo sago. The sago was definitely on the expensive side for the portion, but it absolutely hit the spot and satisfied the craving. The mochi was the real star. The outer layer was soft, chewy, and pillowy, while the filling was light, creamy, and not overly sweet. The strawberry cream mochi tasted fresh and delicate, and the mango version was rich, fruity, and refreshing. Each one felt like biting into a little cloud. The mango pomelo sago was creamy and packed with mango flavor, making for a nice contrast to the mochi. Not exactly an everyday treat given the prices, but for a special craving, it was worth the drive and I'd happily come back.

Confusing looooong menu. The menu isn't very user-friendly, so we went for a recommendation by…read moreanother yelper - get the fresh mochi they said. So we did. Fresh mochi with matcha cream and taro paste, rolled in butter crunch flakes. The order took more than a few minutes to get ready, and it's a little hard to know if your order is ready because there is no visual indicator (a screen displaying order numbers would be so helpful). The staff also wasn't the most careful with the way they were using gloves, they touched their face, the register etc etc. Plus the place is small without any seating so it can get crowded and you don't even know how much time for your order to be ready. But omg the mochi was spectacular. Soft chewy tasty not too sweet. Absolutely smacked it out of the park. A lot of points to improve upon but 5 star mochi.

the "incredible "bagel sandwich was absolutely the most disgusting breakfast sandwich I've ever…read morehad. The menu says fresh, healthy, etc. etc. the only thing fresh about that bagel was the avocado and maybe the egg. Pretty sure it was Oscar Meyer "bacon" or some other form of microwavable bacon (which isn't really bacon ). Which is totally unacceptable in this day and age. And the sweet sauce they put on it was horrendous. My stomach hurt the entire day. If you're not going to use quality bagels and quality bacon, you should not be charging almost $13 a sandwich. your menu should also list the ingredients line by line. I asked the cashier what was on this and he did not mention a disgusting sweet sauce. It's no wonder there's a line out the door for the café down the street and two people inside this café. Although I did not get anything else, but that sandwich, I will not be returning based on that alone. You should be ashamed for even serving that.

I love meeting up with folks here especially if you don't want the heaviness of a full meal! The…read morewhole ambiance with classical music and their menu of beverages, sweets and sandwiches. Everything I've tried here has been tasty. They have limited seating so I've seen it completely full if someone brings a larger group through the doorway. They have a bathroom that is keypad locked so if you've made a purchase just ask them for the #. The Hokkaido Toast sandwich was light and airy. The signature cream does make it on the sweeter side. It paired so well with the rose matcha latte which I've ordered twice now. The pastries and cakes look so tempting too in the display panels. I don't typically drink coffee but if I ever get there early enough I'll try the Crème Brûlée, Vienna Pistachio, or their signature latte. As a tea lover they also have some additional retail items for you to browse for tea steeping and gift sets. The only downside and maybe that's what makes it not as crazy busy on weekends as Tatte is that I want even more options. You can also order whole cakes too if one slice isn't enough. When it gets warmer I will try some of their smoothies and chilled drinks over ice!

Had the Pistachio Crusted Salmon and it's incredible, would definitely get again. Great quality.read more

I sat at the bar with my friend. We were greeted immediately by staff and the owner. We ordered drafts and Rhode Island mussels which hit the spot. Bread was served along side with house made basil infused olive oil and parm cheese. The decor was nice and the restrooms were clean. There was a brick pizza oven in the dining room but no pizza on the menu so I'm unsure if they offer them. Only 30 minutes from Boston and on the way from southern New England. Check it out.

The atmosphere is so cozy and warm, the food is fantastic, and the staff is super friendly. You can get cheaper Mexican food in Waltham for sure, but in such a nice restaurant atmosphere.

I had a large which came with four scoops/flavors (black raspberry, campfire s'mores, strawberry cheesecake, and milky way). It's a lot of ice cream for only $10 and the taste of each flavor was great even in high quantity.

Thought of coming here since we were at the area. I saw some posts online about this new place (not…read moresure how new it is) so decided to stop by to see what's up. It was pretty quiet when I got inside. There was only one person I saw watching the store. The selection was not too bad I would say and they had cute decorations on the wall. I ordered a 4 pack of mochidonuts, and also ordered 2 drinks, I looked up the menu prior to going there and they lady that was watching did not know those drinks and they don't even offer some of it. I was kind of disappointed at that since I was expecting so much more. The mochi donuts I got was also ok, I would say I've had better donuts. The drinks were too sweet. I barely even dranked mine.
