Recently, I noticed the lines disappeared so we came for an early dinner. The interior is pretty cool. It's kit just tables and chairs but the design element is unique. Some seating are inside a honeycomb shaped booth, some are just in the middle of the dining area. We were seated at a table that resembles a birdcage. There's a lot of wood and warm colors, which makes the ambiance stand out over other ramen places. We ordered a ramen, omurice with katsu, some skewers and popcorn chicken. The spicy ramen was delicious, but there was no soft boiled egg as shown on the menu photo. All I saw was a broken egg white at the bottom of the bowl. 4/5. The omurice was nicely done. The egg was perfectly soft and silky with a nice curry sauce in the side. The katsu that came with it was crispy, hot and tasty. 4.5/5. The popcorn chicken was great. Perfect seasoning and crispy. 5/5. The skewers however, were the low point of our dinner. They did not appear they were cooked fresh. The meats were dry and tough. The scallops were OK but tiny. Chicken was average. The whole order did not satisfy. We also got an Amazing Lemonade and Thai iced tea. The lemonade was a very refreshing drink, and the Thai tea is just like all other places. Our server, unfortunately forgot his name, was excellent. Very personable and great at describing flavors. The friendliness extends to the rest of the staff too. It's a nice place to check out. Note their parking lot is fairly small, and shared with Paris Baguette next door. It's a 4.5, rounded up.

Unfortunately, it did cause my coffee to spill in my car and all over my outfit, which was definitely frustrating. That being said, I don't think that reflects on the coffee or the staff at all. The service has always been nice, and the space itself is spacious and comfortable. I'd definitely come back, I just hope they consider switching to sturdier to-go cups!

Each cookie is hearty, filled with chocolate/nuts/fruit, individually wrapped, and they were still warm fresh from the oven. The bakery is not a store front, but they're baking and decorating goodies on the premise. The baker included a cookie care card with instructions on caring for the cookies...so creative and helpful.

My bestie recommended this place to meet up to do some teleworking, and it's the perfect place to do so. They have lots of tables and outlets to cowork in the place, and they are spaced pretty far apart, so you can have your own conversation without hearing the other table. Their WiFi speed was fast, too! They also have an awesome menu with specialty drinks and food items like sandwiches, toasts, and salads. Plus, they have a beautiful display case to showcase their pastries. I got a Matcha Latte and their Salmon Lox Bagel Sandwich $14. They really packed the salmon and cream cheese filling in my sandwich, too! Their prices are normal for the area: 2 drinks and 2 sandwiches were close to $60 with tip. The staff are all so friendly and were busy making all the drinks, but also looked so happy working there together!

We went in and my goodness the place is colorful, like a circus of random things of toys, trinkets, accessories and fridges full of packed desserts.

Today's Flavors definitely means something special, but their triple organic milk was unique. It tasted like fresh sweet milk, tastes even better on top of a brownie and with an extra topping (chocolate balls). More people started coming in and given the space we decided to go back with our ice cream, they have chairs outside where lots of people were eating their ice cream too.
