Inside the cafe area is pretty cool, a bunch of seating with a walk up and order counter. The prices are really good too, pastries for only a few dollars and a cup of soup for 5 or so. Before or after you eat, you can peruse the shop. It's pretty big land laid out nicely. The employees were nice and this must be a good deal because the majority of the folks were elderly. I ordered a curried chicken salad sandwich and chili and cornbread. The sandwich was flavorful and appropriately seasoned, although the chicken was a much larger dice than it should've been for a sandwich. Next time I'd probably ask for the white como bread to be toasted. The chili was nothing to write home about-it was on the watery side and more like a soup and less like a chili. It did have kidney and black beans which you don't see too often, so I give them credit for creativity. Would not get it again. However, the cornbread was absolutely delicious and I would get three more pieces and just make my own chili at home. All in all, this is such a cool spot that I'll definitely be hitting up again. The coffee was decent and they had super long biscotti and other totally affordable pastries. I walked through the shop and even though I didn't buy anything I wanted to. Check it out!

We ordered at the counter - my friend got a turkey bagel with iced coffee and I got the tuna melt with tomato soup with black coffee. As things were prepared, the server brought it to our table and was very polite. The ambience is a mix of café and bistro, everything was super comfortable. The music in the background was not too loud. Everything was inviting. The food genuinely surprised me - my friend's bagel sandwich came drizzled with a balsamic glaze and was pretty comprehensive - the turkey included cheese and avocado and sprouts and was well above and beyond what you would expect from a turkey bagel sandwich. My tomato soup appeared to have been made in house which surprised me. And the tuna sandwich was one of the best I've ever had. It was dark tuna but not that shitty cheap dark stuff, but the actual dark tuna that you want if you're trying to provide an elevated flavorful experience. We did not order from the dessert case, but oh my God it is ridiculously overwhelming in terms of the offering. I almost wanna go back and just graze on desserts.

For context, my favorite coffee…read moreis vietnamese coffee, I've been to Vietnam more than once and have had their coffee all over, in different styles, and I have drank it most of my life (backed by validated opinions from Vietnamese friends and family) so I feel like I have a pretty good handle on what is considered good, strong, and/or quality coffee, especially for this type. From the moment we entered, it brought me back to Vietnam (one of the more modern shops) - it looked so promising. It was really cute, and pictures of the drinks looked nice (all presented very well in glass tumblers, platters, and more), so I was really excited to try their coffee. I should've trusted the mediocre reviews I'd read instead of my eyes. I ordered at the counter, to which I was asked if I wanted dine in (they had glass cups) vs to-go cups, and we opted for dine-in. Took us a while to find a table for 4 but finally we got it and planned to drink our coffee and soak in the vibes. We had gotten a physical order number stand for the table. 15 or so minutes later I saw some drinks on the counter, but they were in to-go cups so I assumed they weren't ours. Finally after 30-40 min later, someone brought the drinks to our table. Not even an apology or mention of how late it was. It was a busy day so I understood that it took a while, but my hot coffee was no longer hot (at all). The ice had melted into both the cold drinks - one friend said her drink wasn't very strong, but drinkable (her first time trying vietnamese coffee), and the other friend said hers tasted like water (and she has had vietnamese coffee many times before). I pointed out the drinks had sat on the counter for that long and were no longer fresh *and* they weren't in glass cups - they said they had run out of glasses (didn't bother to tell us) - but since drinks weren't to temp, they remade 2 of the 3 drinks (since friend #1 didnt care). It took another 20 min. We weren't in a huge rush but were celebrating 2 birthdays in our group of 4, with more plans ahead, and had only planned about 20-30 min for our coffee stop since we had to go back to our hotel to pack up and wanted to rest a bit before checkout - but we were running so behind we didn't have time for rest and started to become in a rush which ruined the rest of our morning. After 20 min, I finally got my hot egg coffee, and it was complete liquid on top. Not how an egg coffee should be, and it didn't have any egg flavor like it should. The waiter said maybe the egg melted due to the hot coffee (um, egg is protein, it doesnt just melt?? and it should be thick and sit on top, not dissolve straight into the drink... hence egg "top") and she also said egg should be flavorless (but also wrong, because quality egg foam should have an eggy flavor). Also the coffee again wasn't even hot, it was vaguely warm. It didnt taste good and was not a proper egg coffee - but the waitress, after giving the excuses why the egg top was like that, said "well what do you want me to do? the cold one wouldve probably been better" (clearly starting to get annoyed). I had already paid and waited that long so I just asked for it to be remade cold since thats what she had suggested for the egg top to not "melt." Another 10-15 min goes by and finally I have my coffee. It was just as horrible, watery, flavorless and incorrectly made as the hot version. Of course I just took this since we needed to leave and just gave up since I wasnt going to get it remade again (which by the way I practically NEVER ask for remakes but this was too pricey and I really needed a coffee that morning, and it was only bc it was so, so bad AND she offered for them to remake it), but ultimately I couldn't drink it so it got tossed and I didn't have more time to get any caffeine that morning. Friend number 2 said her remade coffee was still really weak and didn't like hers either - she ended up buying a coffee somewhere else to add to hers later in the day as she also didnt finish hers that morning (even more disappointed as that was part of her birthday celebration and she loves vietnamese coffee). Moral of the story is... bad service. Bad coffee (at least how it was made, cant even tell the quality of the actual beans since it was so weak). They don't know how to make egg coffee at all (and sadly that was what I was most excited for since not many places offer it). But cute spot, for the vibes. Parking can be hard if busy. They sell vietnamese coffee beans (which is another perk if you like to buy specifically these beans like me) but they don't let you smell or taste any of it, no samples, so not sure how you're supposed to be able to tell if you want it unless you buy like a drip or espresso made there? Also they sell food and that looked good but after that experience my friends and I definitely would not come back. Come at your own discretion.

Actually, my review is minus 1. I worked at Jenni's and yes I do have a food handlers card. Which the rest of people that work there don't have. We dumped about 8k into that shop. Thinking that we were going to be partners. Instead she ripped us off and now I'm ending up at the food bank, because she can't run a business. Jenni doesn't pay people that work for her. One employee hasn't been in since April. Now to add insult to injury. She continues to post pictures of MY baked good saying that she made them. Most of the pictures on her site, I baked them not her. Please don't do not go to her shop. Do no support a liar and a cheat. read more

I ordered a coffee and breakfast for lunch (always a bonus to find places that serve breakfast after noon). Still sipping on my delicious pumpkin pie latte as I write this.

We asked the first staff member that greeted us if there was a reservation for our party of 8 plus a baby and he said that they didn't take reservations and that it was first come first served. He did however advise us to move tables together to accommodate our party and to ask one of the staff members for help if we couldn't do it ourselves. My husband started to move the tables while I put in our order at the counter with a second staff member, a lady with curly brown hair. In the middle of my order she interjected that we couldn't move tables on our own because it "violated their health policy" or something overly dramatic to that effect. I looked at her smiling and expecting it to be a joke but she was serious. Then I looked over her shoulder at the young man that had instructed us to move the tables inviting him to interject to clarify that he told us to move the tables but he did not. I later realized that he may be too scared of getting in trouble, and the rest of our experience made me wonder if the management here actively intimidates their staff into following strict, uncompromising, and irrational rules. Apparently while I was ordering, a third staff member, a blonde lady, came and scolded my husband while he was moving the tables and told him he wasn't authorized to move tables. The place was quite empty so it was odd that the two ladies were behaving so overly stressed and upset. My husband and I sat down and sort of giggled about how intense the two ladies were. At that point it was just comically dramatic behavior from them and a mild inconvenience to us. Then the lady with the blonde hair came over and gave us an earful, again, about the health code and why only they can move tables and how they need to maintain walking zones, as if we had fought them on this or refused in any way. Also, for context, my husband had left about 6 feet of empty space on either end of the table, so her concerns did not appear justified. She moved the high chair from the end of the table where my husband had put it to the end of the table closest to the food prep window. Knowing my sister would need to sit next to the high chair with her baby, my husband and I got up and moved over to the other end of the table. About two minutes later the curly haired lady came over and scolded us for having the high chair at the end of the table where her colleague had just put it. By now, I felt like we were on a candid camera show and the two ladies were playing a prank on us to see how many times they could tell us the same thing and move our table and chairs around before they got a reaction out of us. This was now the fifth time we were told about moving the tables and hassled about seating arrangement. My husband looked at the curly haired lady and asked her calmly but firmly, "Are you sure, this time, that this is where you want the chairs? I don't want to have you keep moving us." To my shock the curly haired lady looked at him and in the most passive aggressive tone and exaggerated expression said, "Are you OKAY?!" As if it were strange that my husband would ask an adult to make a decision and stick to it. My husband and I would have left at this point and demanded our money back but we were expecting my sister and her family and my parents so we reluctantly had to stay. A few moments later our food arrived, shockingly fast! (The best thing about this place is speed!) I got up to ask the two men preparing the food at the window if I could get an extra plate for sharing and the man that I asked looked bewildered and asked the other man, "Is that ok, can I give her a plate?" As though I had asked for something outrageous and out of the ordinary. The second man seemed annoyed and said begrudgingly that it was ok to give me a plate, and the first man immediately handed me a plate. It felt very much like a twilight zone episode where the walls of this restaurant housed a tiny dictatorship where there are staff members with power and staff members that are afraid of making the wrong decision and having to pay the consequences. All I could think is "yikes..." When the rest of my party arrived we said nothing to them about our twilight zone experience to avoid ruining everyone's meal as ours was already ruined. This is one place we will never choose to go back to and that is unfortunate because this restaurant has so much potential to be excellent given the right, positive, management.
