This is a cutely decorated cafe with coffee and smoothies and a variety of foods! Beautiful decor that gives it a nice comforting ambiance! I've tried a handful of things here and most things have been pretty good! This is a order upfront and find a seat kind of restaurant, there's water on the side with cups and napkins. The host is nice and welcomes you and helps you with your orders. This is mostly a self-service kind of place so the service is good for what it is. The food was pretty great, a little pricey tbh, but at least it's good! Most of their coffee drinks are great too btw. The Pupusa is a must try, great flavor and a great appetizer! 4/5 Ribeye Steak Tacos were also great! Super tender and great flavor, would totally recommend as well! 4/5! Overall, a great causal brunch/coffee place with lots of options, I haven't had anything so far that I didn't like! Would totally recommend!

We ended up going back twice! We were greeted right when we walked in and the staff was patient as we looked over the large menu. Plenty of seating inside and they have a nice outdoor patio for when the weather gets better. The blueberry muffin was the best I have ever eaten! The slightest hint of sweetness made all the difference! You could taste how fresh all the ingredients were! The breakfast sandwich was massive and filling. I would love to come back again for the dinner/cocktails! Plenty of street parking available and the restaurant/bathrooms were very clean.

The crepe was superb, and the coffee was just fine. There was an outdoor seating section, so I took a small table in there. No problems though I wish it was a little warmer. Heating was available, but it was not intolerably cold so I decided not to bother with turning on the heat. I'd definitely consider returning. Bear in mind the establishment is based on ordering at the counter and picking up your order when you're paged. I don't mind that (saves on paying gratuity), but if you want wait service, this isn't the right place for you.

Slices of perfectly ripened Bosc Pear perched atop a bed of creamy Goat Cheese Fondue and crisp Mixed Greens, the plate jeweled with both Red and Golden Beets, Toasted Almonds, and Red Onion; drizzled with Hot Honey and Apple Cider Vinaigrette. And the Salmon was just as expertly prepared... the edges crisped, but the interior still silky. Wow, just WOW... I'll definitely be back for more.

‼ MATCHA REVIEW ONLY‼…read more This is my favorite Strawberry Matcha in Gaithersburg! Hands down! Service is pretty quick even when the traffic is heavy - love them for that! Not only is the Matcha extremely aesthetically pleasing when you pick it up, but it's also not hard to mix like everywhere else. The strawberry purée mixes in perfectly with the rest of the drink. You don't have to shake it up like crazy or spoon it to actually mix everything. It's also extremely balanced. It's not too hard on the strawberry, nor is it too much with the Matcha - perfect blend! If you love matcha - go now!

The…read morerestaurant was clean, the staff was welcoming, and the service throughout the meal was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Big Eaters Platter, the Corned Beef Hash & Eggs, and shared a Nutella Crepe with Strawberries for dessert. The portions were generous, especially the Big Eaters Platter, making it a solid choice if you're coming in hungry. The corned beef hash was decent, and the Nutella crepe with fresh strawberries was a nice sweet finish to the meal. That said, I thought the food was just okay for the price. Nothing we ordered was bad, but nothing really stood out enough to make me want to come back. The quality was solid, but I left feeling like there are better breakfast options in the area for the same price point. If you work nearby or are visiting one of the surrounding medical offices or hospitals, I could definitely see this being a convenient spot for a quick breakfast or lunch. However, as someone visiting the area, I don't think it's a place I'd go out of my way to return to. Overall, friendly service and a clean restaurant helped make for a pleasant experience, but the food didn't quite justify the price. A good neighborhood café if you're close by, but probably not a destination breakfast spot.

He said the sandwich had added spices that made it taste better than a regular sandwich. There's seating inside but also a lobby in the attached building that has seating. There's also seating outside. The two ladies working were really nice and answered our questions because we weren't familiar with some of the baked goods.

The Philly cheesesteak was really delicious! I was pleasantly surprised about it being on ciabatta, it works really well! Definitely worth checking out this Algerian cafe.
