I must admit that I still have a knee-jerk reaction of rolling my eyes whenever someone tells me…read morethat they are gluten-free (NOT counting those that have Celiac/gluten allergies). However, I will say that one good thing that has come from this movement is the plethora of innovative gluten free bakeries and eateries that serve up tasty products. I first learned about Sweet Diplomacy when my neighbors gave me some cupcakes from here that tasted amazing. When I looked them up, I was surprised to learn that they were in Los Altos as I live nearby and had never heard of them. The shop is very cute and homely and feels as if you are in someone's home kitchen. Although they seem to specialize in cupcakes, they also serve a number of other gluten-free and even vegan items. I should note that this bakery focuses on more desserts (ie cookies, cakes, tarts, etc.) rather than pastries (ie croissants and buns). I never thought that my new favorite go-to bakery would be a gluten-free one. As a Mountain View resident, I must say that it is also nice not to have to trek to Palo Alto in order to get some tasty cupcakes!

Sweet Diplomacy is a gluten free only bakery in Los Altos. We've been here multiple times to get…read moreGF goodies. 4.7 on Google, 4.4 on Yelp. From cakes to cupcakes to cookies, everything is gluten free. Prices are not cheap, but the quality is high. Must goto spot for GF Folks. Far better than the one or two offerings at Jane the Bakery, Mariposa Bakery, or the Mill. Safety Pluses - Online menu, Delivery services available, online ordering. Food Review: Carpe Diem Cake (Gluten-Free & Vegan) - "Portland" Chocolate Brown Sugar Cake ($48) is better than most gluten free cakes. Perfect for those with strict dietary guidelines. A bit on the sweet side and not that moist. 8/10 The Diplomatic Cookie ($5) Chocolate Chip Cookie (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free, Vegan) - Most GF cookies are powdery and gross. This one is one of the better ones. Pretty thick with good texture and flavor. 8.5/10 Muffin - Lemon Poppy Seed (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free) ($6) is a less sweet option. Also one of the top GF muffins. Not powdery, and not overly sweet. 8.5/10 Overall - Very Good Food - Very Good Decor - Very Good Service - Very Good Value - Fair Would we come back - Yes

Parking is a bit scary with…read morehaving to pull out/pull in while ongoing traffic is behind you but I've never struggled to find parking. I got the drink special recommended to me by the workers which was the Sana'a Latte. All drinks have the option to come iced or hot and they are paired with a small middle eastern cafe. Perfect to have a coffee and a meal! The beans were strong but not burnt and I loved the taste! They offered huge variety of latte flavors and syrups and many were unique. While seating inside/outside seems to be a bit limited I have also never seen all seats occupied. Would love to come back and try the food options and more coffee flavors and update my review as well!

Sana'a Cafe is actually inside Mediterranean Grill…read more We like to order a pot of coffee, and savory & sweet snacks. We've tried their different pots of coffee. I usually ask for the popular pot unless someone in my party has a preference, like the Turkish one. That one is nice and strong so that is a good one. The Dubai chocolate cheesecake is pretty good and my favorite cheesecake. It has a crunchy base, not your normal graham cracker. They heat up the savory pastries for you. I like coffee and going to coffee shops so I would recommend trying this place out if you haven't been.

The shop is located inside the Verve apartment building so I just parked nearby and walked. We ordered ahead online, which was super convenient for a larger order. The service was great! Everyone was really kind, and they even gave me boxes to help carry everything out. We tried the Vienna Einspanner Matcha Latte and you can really taste the quality. The matcha had a smooth, rich flavor that reminded us of the matcha we had in Uji, Japan. We also grabbed the egg sando, which was good and made for a quick, easy bite, but probably not a must-try compared to the drinks. The egg coffee, on the other hand, was surprisingly really good and came in a generous portion. Overall, a great spot for high-quality matcha and drinks. We'll definitely be back!

I do want to make a small customization to this drink, and that's adding a salt foam on top to have some more notes. I think this will bring it over the top with a new experience. They have lots to offer but their main focus is their specialty drinks such as their Vietnamese flavored drinks; Pandan, Coconut, etc. The place isn't that big of a shop. They have a few seats with some additional outdoor communal high table type seating. This is more of a grab n' go type coffee spot. This is perfect for my post-workouts from next door! Can't wait to come back again.

Today's espresso was roasted by Temple, it had nice crema, was full in body and no sour notes of light roasted coffee. the only sadness I experience: paying by cash for $16.01 charge, I received $3.99 in change because there was no cash in the drawer by 10a, and the pastries (which I assume are fresh daily) are wrapped in plastic upon deliver, which kink of ruins the texture of the product, even though they are kept in a closed display cabinet. overall I still like coming here - one of the few places in downtown that has character and is a pleasure experience.

The sourdough was chef's kiss! Perfectly crusty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. I didn't catch the employee's name, but he was fantastic. Super friendly, welcoming, and spot on with his recommendations. I really appreciated that they had fresh samples of the day's breads available. He suggested the olive and cheese bread, something I normally wouldn't choose and wow, it was incredible. We ended up taking a loaf home and a couple of other items home. The jalapeño cheddar was just as amazing but had decided to pass since it probably would had been spicy for my toddler. It's a bit of a drive for us, but my husband and I both agreed that it's absolutely worth it. Whenever we're hosting a get together and want fresh, delicious, bakery quality bread, this will be our go to spot. We'll definitely be back to try more!
