    This is by far ironically the best coffee out of the 5 places I have tried so far. You can actually taste the coffee in the lattes it's not just entirely milk! It's super conveniently located which was also super exciting! I highly recommend!

    Officially my favorite place for a morning cafe in downtown Seattle. A friend in the office offered me an alternative option to my big box routine latte on busy mornings. She suggested the Turkish latte and it was immediately my Fonte fav after the first sip. I've not tried anything from the brunch menu but each beverage I've tried has been uniquely perfect.

    Cashless?  So what's in the tip jar?
    Marcos T.

    Ok, the food and coffee were delicious. The two ladies working were very pleasant and provided excellent customer service. That's what got them the 4 stars, but I have a question. Why do they insist on being "cashless" but still put out a tip jar? Where are they going to spend the cash? Certainly not at their own establishment. Cash is good for all debts public and private as it states on the legal tender. Accept cash and your employees will receive more tips.

    Sage latte. Extra sage for all the zombies today! Shoo!

    Bummer!! Normally, fonte can do no wrong with their lattes. Fonte Seattle that is. Tried this place out and I was pretty disappointed. It's in the lobby of Hyatt regency Bellevue. Open space, plenty of places to sit. They have Togo food ( salad and sandwiches, even a few cookies). Pretty big espresso bar. Less food option than Seattle but isn't missing much for the espresso bar to lack in coffee. I got my fonte favorite: sage latte. It was pretty much a normal regular latte. No sage on top, nor the syrup! They forgot to add! I went back and told them about it: they added! So much that it was not drinkable! Boo! Left my cup 90% full! The barista just said awe! Sorry. Sorry indeed! Should've been the same! But not even close. Bummer!!!!

    Stale cinnamon roll with a cold center.

    I ordered a chai latte and a giant cinnamon roll. While the flavors of the latte were exquisite, it was served like warm. The cinnamon roll looked delicious - but it turned out to be dry, cold in the center, and it left an oily funk on my tongue that reminded me of a smelly refrigerator.

    Chocolate chip cookie was so hard and inedible. Asked them to warm it up and it only made it worse.

    There was a good line during lunch but it moves pretty fast…read more You can get a bowl, plate, or Bahn mi. Honestly after trying the ingredients, you can't go wrong with any. I got the bowl with half salad and half vermicelli. I went with the pork but the chicken looked pretty good as well. The flavor of the pork was on point. The fish sauce added a really nice flavor. I also got the cilantro sauce cause it was recommended. It was good as well but really didn't need it. The bowl was pretty packed. I was spilling all over the place just trying to get to some noodles. It was good though. Next time I'm gonna try the plate. It's pretty much the same thing but hopefully not as full and messy. Oh, and the fried egg always kicks it up a notch.

They're serving up rice bowls, vermicelli, and banh mi. I got the Vermicelli with Grilled Beef, Tofu, and a Sunny Side Egg. I got nearly all the toppings (cucumbers, carrot, lettuce, jalapeno, and cilantro) and went with the fish sauce. It's essentially Bun Thit Nuong. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this! The veggies were fresh, the proteins were well seasoned and lean, the noodles were bouncy, and the fish sauce was pretty decent. Not to mention, the serving size was rather generous. A really great lunch option!

The menu is quite small with three cold sandwiches and three hot ones, each inspired by a different region of the globe with the South Pacific, South America and Mediterranean as a few examples. There were two salads listed as well. I've been here twice and both times, when I went to place my order on the iPad, the menu stated they were out of stock for the sandwich that I wanted. However, when I asked the employee, she said that was not correct. So if you see the same message when ordering, it's worth asking about it! During my first visit, I ordered the RENDANG ($14). This hot sandwich came packed with SO much meat! Very tender chunks of marinated beef tasted of coconut, curry and warm spices. The flavor had true depth and I could actually taste hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. Thin spears of pickled cucumber and carrot added crunch and a perfect zing of acidity. They were refreshing and cut through the rich beef. A drizzle of Sambal Terasi (chili) aioli gave it another layer of flavor. Cilantro, mint and Thai basil were all fresh and vibrant. The bread was lightly toasted, being a little crinkly in texture without being harsh against my gums. If I could change something, I would include a couple extra slices of the cucumber to balance out the ratio of vegetables to meat, and add a bit more of the aioli. Other than that, this is a great sandwich influenced by flavors of the South Pacific. My companion got the STEAK sandwich ($15) and enjoyed it. The steak slices were thinly cut and tender as well. They do their beef right! On another occasion, I tried the PROSCIUTTO ($14), one of their cold sandwiches. The delicate layers of prosciutto were placed on top of sliced tomatoes, pickled onion and arugula, all between pressed focaccia bread. Truffle mustard was spread on both pieces of bread, which was WAY too much in my opinion. With this mustard having a stronger flavor, it overpowered the sandwich and made it too tangy, especially in combination with the pickled onions. The menu stated this should include pistachios, but I didn't notice any, and they were all out of provolone, so there was also an absence of cheese. For the prices, these sandwiches are pretty generous in size, so I consider them a good deal, especially for the Bellevue area. The ingredients are fresh and make for a fantastic lunch option. While I wasn't a huge fan of the Prosciutto sandwich, I'd definitely go back again for another Rendang!
