    Great interior, smaller but cute and quaint. We had the spiced sweet potato latte and black sesame hojicha. While we have not yet had its matcha the seasonal drink was a lot left to be desired. Great barista, lots of seating Will come back to try the matcha.

    I recently fell in love with matcha and was excited to try out Kyotobrew since it's so close to my house. Even though I took my drink to go, I loved how clean and simple the inside of the cafe was. The service was okay, I stood by the register for a couple of minutes without being greeted while the barista chatted with the customer next to me and made their drink. Overall, I enjoyed the drink I ordered and would definitely come back to visit!

    Your favorite coffee spot is a in a location in the heart of historic downtown Lancaster. It was my first time visiting here and I almost missed it because I didn't see any signs. To me that's part of the allure. Once you're inside, you're greeted by a chill staff in the most chill setting. The interior is inspired by Japan which is a nice touch has a calming effect. I ordered a pourover and it was as a delicious as the vibes. At the time of writing this review however, I am regretting not also trying one of the super unique matcha or espresso based drinks. I'll have to come back! You can tell they are passionate about their craft and space as every detail here done with intention.

    Sleek, Modern, and Deliciously Unique Kyotobrew nails the modern café experience. The space is sleek and stylish with a cool music vibe that makes you want to linger. My Pistachio Hojicha Iced Latte was rich, nutty, and perfectly balanced--unlike anything you'll find at a chain. The marble toast with apple jam was fresh, warm, and comforting, with just the right hint of sweetness. Between the craft drinks, fresh‑baked pastries, and even a cocktail bar for evening hangs, Kyotobrew is more than a coffee shop--it's a destination. What a vibe.

    DRINKS All the Matcha had a really nice green tea powder was well dissolved and they use good quality matcha. You can substitute for oat milk or pistachio milk. Strawberry Matcha - my friend got this drink. They put a little bit too much strawberry syrup, so the strawberry flavor was overpowering the matcha. The drink still tasted good, just like strawberry milk more so than matcha. Rosemary Vanilla Matcha - I personally really like this drink. I haven't seen any other place that makes this type of syrup. For me, it wasn't too sweet. I could take a hint of the vanilla, which gave a nice flavor. The Matcha flavor was really good! Definitely recommend! Ube Matcha - I got this drink to go. It tasted like they use actual ube. The ube part kind of has a bit of a soft potato texture to it which is why I'm convinced. He drinks a little on the side, but it's still a really good and you can taste the matcha! Jalapeño Cheddar Kolache - it was pretty decent overall. There's a sliver of jalapeño inside. The kolache is a lot more on the salty side, but it's still pretty decent. They also warm it up for you! VIBES The place is a lot smaller than I expected, but it's really clean. There are tables of two and tables of four as well as bar seating and some cushion seating with tiny tables. There are a decent amount of outlets throughout so perfect for studying or working on stuff. The interior has a modern, simplistic plant vibe which is really nice. Bathrooms are so pretty and clean! Gotta be one of my favorite cafes based on vibes. SERVICE Service was great! They were really quick to get the drinks out, and they bring it to you. They're also really quick to look around to see if you have any finished plates or cups to take up.

    Matcha is top tier! Get the pecan cinnamon roll - omg! The southern girl in me looooves that! Service is great, friendly staff. Aesthetics of this place is also top tier! Adding to my favorite list for sure.

    Such a sweet spot nestled in the town square! I tried the Hojicha latte (cold) and went right back in line to try the spiked version (hot). I also got the croissant sourdough without jam/butter bc I was very intrigued - it tasted exactly as the name suggests so it did not disappoint lol. Their drinks come unsweetened and there is an extra fee to add an alternative milk option or crafted sweeteners which are not overly sweet. Their staff were nice and the service was quick. I would love to come back and try their other cocktails!

    Stopped by kyotobrew on my drive from Dallas to Austin this morning. This place is a little hidden but there is ample parking. The interior of the cafe is nicely decorated and there are several tables. The service is nice and they are quick. I ordered an iced matcha latte with their brown sugar vanilla syrup and a jalapeño cheddar kolache. I had high hopes for this matcha after hearing everybody on tiktok rave about it but was a bit disappointed after trying it. The matcha tasted like a regular matcha latte but with less sweet. I normally like things less sweet but this drink could've used a little more. I wish the brown sugar flavor was a bit more prominent, I could not tell that brown sugar was used for this drink. The matcha itself was whisked well, I did not see any clumps of matcha in my drink. The kolache was good, but nothing crazy. I think social media overhyped this place (not their fault) but that set my expectations a little too high for this place and feel like that is the case for others as well. Overall, I don't think this place is worth going out of your way to try but it is a cute cafe to meet up with a friend or to study at.

    Wanted to see what the hype was about so I made the trek to Lancaster to get my breakfast on. The place is nestled between the other retail shops so you can miss it if you aren't careful! The aesthetic is nice- clean and simple, very japanese. Gives off a very peaceful ambiance. Ordered the cinnamon roll and a cold brew. Cinnamon roll was nice and soft, flavors were great. Not too sweet and the crushed pecans are a nice touch. Wish it was warm however. Cold brew tasted great, I just wish there was more of it haha. The giant ice cube takes up most of the real estate in that glass. Get here early because it can fill up quick!

    Kyoto is an experience when it comes to coffee. I was never big on matcha but going to Kyoto changed that for me. The strawberry matcha with pistachio milk was game changing. The tiger shokupan toast is very fulfilling and full of flavor. The atmosphere has a very chill vibe and perfect for studying and reading as well as a quick breakfast and coffee. The staff is very friendly which is why I return at least once a week.

    I wish Kyotobrew was anywhere but in Lancaster because it was seriously such a drive, but the area Kyotobrew is in is so quaint and nice. The interior is beautiful, and you can tell the owner really took time and care to design everything from the seating to the finishings in the bathrooms. My boyfriend and I have been on a matcha craze recently, so we came to visit right before we drove back to Austin! We liked our matcha lattes and tried their toast with some jam as well. I will say that the matcha is good but not phenomenal--you can still see the specks of matcha floating so they need to whisk their matcha more thoroughly. The toast was really soft, and the jam was a wonderful touch.

    Superb fat but great quality! Wished I can come here a lot more but it's not in the way. It's in a small historic town. Service is great! Everyone is friendly and attentive.

    Customer service is great! However, I do not think this matcha is the best in the DFW area. It was more milky than I prefer my matchas to be. There is limited seating inside, so keep that in mind if your goal is to study or work here.

    All I can say is WOW! This may be the best restaurant in Ennis. My husband ordered the steak…read moresandwich, and the moment he took the first bite, his eyes lit up. I had the carbonara, and honestly, it was almost too pretty to eat. The service was a little slow, but it actually gave us time to soak in the atmosphere and admire how beautiful the restaurant is inside. The vibe? Absolutely check. The cocktails were not our favorite, but that definitely won't stop us from coming back to try other drinks on the menu. What makes this place even more special is that it's a true mom-and-pop restaurant sourcing food locally. You really can't beat that. Supporting local while getting an amazing meal is always a win.

Pink and honest in the middle, warm and willing, bread holding it all together like a good road holding a long drive. Nothing flashy, nothing trying too hard just flavor that knew where it came from and didn't apologize. The arugula salad came sharp and clean, green with intent, that bitter edge that wakes you up a little and reminds you you're still alive. It wasn't there to impress you. It was there to balance things out, like a deep breath between sentences. I drank Earl Grey tea, steam rising slow, bergamot drifting up like memory, like train smoke somewhere far off. It felt right. The kind of tea you drink when you're not rushing anywhere, when the world can spin without you for a moment and that's okay. Fern in the Wild isn't trying to reinvent eating. It's doing something better. It's paying attention. To ingredients. To pace. To the quiet pleasure of a meal done right. I left feeling fed in more ways than one--like I'd stopped long enough to hear myself think. That's rare. That's worth something. I'll be back.

(We had one person in our party not receive their dinner due to a misunderstanding but they handled it well.) The food : The honey glazed salmon was cooked beautifully, and so was the broccolini. Seasoning was well balanced. BUT the rice underneath it was a miss. It was having an identity crisis. Not exactly sure what they were aiming for: Spanish rice ? Mexican rice ? Not a risotto, but certainly mush. The dish could do without this element. The pizza : the crust was more bread than crust. The sauce was good and the cup pepperoni is our favorite pepperoni. If you like a doughy bread type pizza you may like this. We like ours thinner and crispier with a chewy crust. The crust was bland. The Steak frites: order it! Best dish of the night. I would have ordered mine medium rare but I tried my husband's order which was more well done and it was still soft as flavorful. Next time I'm ordering my own and not sharing. The wine: we had a nice bottle of the Chenin blanc. It was aromatic, light and crisp. Everything I expected from a Chenin blanc. Amazing on a hot spring/summer night. They do have a good wine list that won't break the bank! Ambiance: I'm a fan! Dark and moody without being too dark and moody. They had live music and although a little loud for conversation if you're in the mood for a nice night out and don't want to drive to mesquite/dallas this is the place.

It's definitely more delightfully eclectic and kitschy than neighborhoods around Downtown Dallas or East Dallas. Atlas has a funky lounge design that is warm, inviting and screams that you made it out of the house so you're ready to rage. They always have great energy in their music, creative cocktail menu, and food. I had a tasty Sidecar variation called Between Da Sheets (photo 2). They added rum to the classic recipe of cognac, orange liqueur and lemon juice. The rum gave it a bit of a vacationy feel which was nice. It was well-balanced and quite tasty. We highly recommend checking out Atlas next time you're in Bishop Arts and want an elevated cocktail in one of the funkiest spaces in Dallas. Do it!!! Salute @thejohnnycocktail

They banged the whole time , which we didn't know it was them until we opened the door. There was five of us, and once we opened up the door, they were telling us to watch our mouths because I yelled at them asking did they work there , obviously confused what was going on. They then decided to kick us out because we had too many people in the restroom. I only got one of the security guards name his name is Anthony another man in his 40s who had an accent decided to put his hands on me and push me. We were all so confused why we were getting kicked out. I will never be going back! That is absolutely insane. We did not take a long time either and they said it was gonna take too long if we all went together, which makes no sense. We took MAYBEEE 5 to 7 minutes in the restroom. The owner needs to get a grip on his security guards. Especially the ones that look like their on drugs sneaking people in from the back and the one man who put his hands on me for absolutely no reason!!! BEWARE LADIES: You cannot go to the bathroom with anyone or you will get kicked it and man handled !!!

    Hidden gem alert!…read more The Dessert Bar in Midlothian is absolutely worth the hunt, even with the construction mess making it harder to get to right now. Once you find it, though, you'll be glad you did. This spot combines two of my favorite things: decadent desserts + a legit full bar. Whoever came up with this concept deserves a medal. What I had: Raspberry Almond Cake - 5/5. Moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The almond balanced the raspberry perfectly, and the slice was massive. Sharing is optional, but I didn't. ;) Chocolate Chip Cookie - 5/5. Giant, warm, and delicious. It had that perfect chewy-meets-crispy texture, and thankfully wasn't dry (a common downfall for oversized cookies). Old Fashioned - 5/5. Honestly, one of the best I've had anywhere. Perfectly balanced, smooth, and strong. I wasn't expecting cocktail game this good at a dessert spot; pleasantly surprised! They've only been open about three months, and I really hope more people discover them because this concept is so good. A cute, cozy vibe, amazing desserts, and strong cocktails? Yes, please. Do yourself a favor: find this place.
