    Breakfast Egg Sandwich
    Alishbah S.

    This is a really cute spot in Astoria. It gets super busy, and sometimes there's a line with barely any seating. Unfortunately, we were too late and missed their famous firni donuts -- inshallah next time The breakfast sandwich was delicious, and the chicken sandwich was perfectly balanced -- the gochujang and coleslaw worked so well together, and the bun-to-chicken ratio was on point. I also didn't expect the short rib sandwich to be as good as it was, but it really surprised me. The coffee was good. The pink tea though was just eh -- it tasted artificial, kind of perfumey, and overly sweet, not like real authentic Kashmiri chai. Overall though, I'd definitely go back.

    Lumberjack breakfast
    Ashely V.

    This place is small on the inside, but it's amazing. The food was so good! My husband and I split the lumberjack breakfast and it was more than enough for two people. It came with pancakes, eggs, toast, hash browns, avocado, salsa.. I'm sure I'm forgetting some of the toppings. We also got an almond croissant and some sort of muffin cinnamon roll with a citrus flavor on the inside. This is absolutely a place to come back to!

    Breakfast Burrito with Lamb Sausage
    Joe G.

    Such a cozy little corner Cafe! I wanted a good breakfast and iced Americano, and ended up ordering the Breakfast Burrito with lamb sausage as well as Raspberry Danish. The burrito really gets elevated when you order it with some protein. The lamb sausage is halal and it is spiced up with delicious earthy flavors. It's worth getting even though it's an added $4. The Danish, however, is my real favorite. The Raspberry jam is delicious and there is soft, creamy cheese inside. The Danish is baked perfectly, balancing the fluffiness and chewiness. Space is tight and there are not too many tables and chairs, but if the weather is as nice as today, outside is just as pleasant as inside. I'll definitely come back to explore more of the menu. Finally, everyone is just so friendly here, it is quite comforting. It can be a little lively because of the small space but I was able to read through a script while having my breakfast just fine.

    Short Rib Sandwich
    Caitlyn F.

    Cute little spot with yummy food! My friend & I came on a Sat afternoon around 1:30pm and all the pastries we wanted to try were sold out, so def come earlier to get them! We ended up getting the short rib sandwich which was so good, the meat was really tender and flavorful. We also got the pink tea - it was a little on the sweeter side, but still really good and I'd get that again. Overall a great spot for a good quick bite - will def come back earlier to try to snag the firni donut!

    Pink tea
    Annie B.

    Food/drinks: Tried pink tea (chai, cardamom, rose) and could adjust my sweetness which was nice! It's very sweet but yum. Will definitely come back for the food!! It looks super yum Atmosphere: looove the interior of this cafe!! Around 5 tables and there's outlets but no wifi!! Can get pretty loud even on a weekday Service: super friendly Price: $$ average for nyc

    What a wonderful little spot with a BIG fan following! We stopped by for coffee and breakfast on a Friday, and were happy to see a line out the door (well deserved!). Their service is outstanding - everyone who works there is so kind. Their menu has a big variety including plenty of vegetarian-friendly options. Their coffee is great, and their avocado toast was one of the best I've ever had. My only regret is that I did not get a pastry too - they look insanely good. They have a decent amount of seating for their size, and it is first-come first-served. Absolutely worth the stop if you're in the area!

    The best breakfast burrito
    Tracey K.

    I ate here before and can't believe I haven't raved about it yet! This time I had a breakfast burrito. It was chock full of breakfast goodness and toasted to perfection. It was so big I couldn't even finish it. It had scrambled eggs, salsa, onions, cheese, tomatoes, all the breakfast goodness and I added bacon for a slight upcharge. Magnificent! They are cooking up everything fresh so there's a little wait but it's worth it . I've had the avocado toast before and it is the best! They don't skimp on anything here. And their coffee is delicious. They have tables inside or you can take it to go and sit in the park nearby. Super nice staff too!

    Firni Donut
    Jenn T.

    Stopped by on a Friday morning to fully occupied tables and a line to order. Don't let the crowd deter you because the coffee and Firni donut are worth it. They brew the amazing Sey coffee beans. I got a hot latte with almond milk which was probably a barista blend because it had a very nutty flavor - I like it, it's different. I would come back for their donut alone. I honestly don't know the exact ingredients because there wasn't a description. It was topped with pistachios with a sweet glaze. The filling is light and foamy. It had notes of olive oil and cardamom. Overall, a great local cafe to pick up quality coffee and food.

    Short Rib Sandwich
    Kayla D.

    The food was incredible! I got a few things based off of recommendations and can't say enough great things. The short rib packed so much flavor and the onions complimented it so well. The were out of some pastries so we got a cinnamon roll that was suggested by a staff member- it was so fluffy and delicious. Sweet but well balanced. The pink chai was refreshing and had a strong floral taste that I loved. The set is small and intimate but very lovely if you can find a spot to sit.

    A trusted friend brought me here for brunch. The pink tea, beef bacon maple swirl, and almond croissant were excellent. The pink tea will especially bring me back. Service was great too. There wasn't a ton of seating and it is very popular, so don't plan to consume your food here.

    Pleased to see they use Sey Coffee which is some of the best coffee in the entire city, so the coffee will not disappoint. Really what I cam here for, though, were the pastries, which also did not disappoint. The pistachio donut was something special, as well as the cardamom bun. They were freshly made, and you can tell the place puts in a ton of effort into their baked goods as many people are coming here for their pastries, some of which ran out by noon! Bits of vanilla bean decorated this fresh donut filling and there was a wonderful lightly sweet glaze on top and crumbly pistachio bits. The cardamom bun was also quite special, and had layers circumferentially upon itself like a cinnamon roll does, but has a tougher exterior which was enjoyable to bite into, and a nice, perfectly sweet frosting on top! The breakfast sandwich was good, though didn't stand out as much. Would definitely come back though to try the rest of their pastries and have more amazing coffee!

    Let's just start off by saying these were the best sandwiches I've had in a VERY LONG TIME! Ordered the short rib and the sammie (BEC) and my goodness they were so good. Juicy, filling, hot, fresh, flavorful and finger licking good. Honestly just pull up and see for yourself!

    Firni Donut (~$6) - inside
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Iced Latte (~$5.50) with rose syrup (50¢) and oat milk Firni Donut (~$6) Guava Pancakes (~$12): homemade guava glaze, homemade whipped cream, maple syrup, and butter Aya's take: Found myself back at Little Flower and it's so good to see they're doing well in business. The Iced Latte with rose syrup & oat milk was just as good as last time - but it was a bummer that their cups no longer say "Little Flower" on it. They were so cute! I got to try the Firni Donut. Firni is an Afghan dessert but I've never seen it in donut form. It was creamy and mildly sweet from the milk & sugar and the donut was soft and delicate. The Guava Pancakes were a good try and if I'm being honest, my favorite part was the homemade whipped cream. Do I see & taste real vanilla bean!? Hell yes! The guava glaze was mostly palatable when I tried it on its own but definitely gets lost in a bite with everything else. The pancakes are pretty thin which I personally liked but if you're looking for thicker, more cakey pancakes, this might not be the dish for you. We wanted to stay longer to just chill & read but it got super busy and chaotic that we decided to leave after finishing up. Still one of the best cafes in Astoria!

    I've been clamoring - CLAMORING - for a place like this in the Upper East Side. Most Asian…read morerestaurants in this neighborhood are fancy sit-downs, so it was exciting to see a quick, casual stop for Asian "finger food" (for a lack of better word) within my vicinity. Joju specializes in modern Vietnamese cuisine, serving meals like bahn mi, loaded fries, and rice meals. The menu recently added soy garlic wings, and since I am a fiend for Asian-style fried chicken, I of course had to have it. While all of the beverages looked tempting, especially their non-alcoholic soju refreshers, I needed caffeine to offset the afternoon slump that was about to follow, so I ordered a Vietnamese coffee. The wings were huge! It was notably crunchy, saucy, and juicy. There was a decent skin to meat ratio, (I so hate biting into a mouthful of breading), and the meal came out piping hot. It was clear the chicken had been fried per order. Those who know me know that I can't live without rice and would eat it with almost any meal, including fried chicken, so I did request it on the side, although the wings don't come with it. The man who took my order did me a solid and served it with mine, anyway. Good lad! I've been wanting to try Vietnamese coffee for a while now, and it was everything I imagined it would be. Sweet with a bitter backend - but not too bitter! I'm still new to coffee, and I pucker up at anything too intense. This was just right. My meal at Joju satisfied me, mind, body, and soul. I hope it is here to stay, and I hope that a shop like this is a catalyst for other quick Asian food stops to follow. Korean and Filipino restaurants - I'll be waiting!

I can't emphasize how excited I am for them to be here, bringing one of our best neighborhood bites to a new neighborhood which desperately needs more affordable and diversified options. This modern Vietnamese sandwich spot offers banh mi inspired by other East and Southeast Asian flavors. I personally like reaching for their regular banh mi and their lemongrass chicken banh mi. You would be remiss if you didn't get the banh mi or kimchi fries, and their monster rolls which are a newer creation but are essentially giant lumpia with any and all of the sauces they have available. Another plus is that they have pretty creative drinks, like their refreshers and virgin mojitos, for a nice little drink that isn't too calorie-dense depending on what you get. Welcome to the neighborhood Joju and I wish you all the success.

Hanoi pho -- rich and beefy broth with flat white noodles; i personally rlly liked this dish and thought the noodles were perfect and soup had good flavor, but my mom and aunts did find it a bit salty for their liking. Lump crab noodles -- on the lighter side which i rlly enjoyed; it tasted like a light garlic noodle with some hints of parmesan. They do use real crab, but you can taste that it's made with frozen crab. I did find myself drinking a lot of water after a few bites and felt it was a lil saltier than my preference. Saigon shaking beef -- get this! Beef is so tender and cooked perfectly. The sauce and pairing with the arugula and veggies were so delicious. This was also my mom and aunts fav! The sauce was so good we used it on the crab noodles. Bun cha hanoi -- the grilled pork patties that come in a separate small bowl were the highlight of this dish. The main dish did lack fresh ingredients imo; half the veggies were wilted and the lettuce had some bitterness to it indicating it was prob not the freshest. The vermicelli was quite hard and imo not cooked enough. The grilled pork slices were good, but i think most viet places ive gone tasted similar. Id def come again tho! I think the prices are quite reasonable for the quality and the staff were honestly some of the friendliest ive seen! They were so attentive despite being so busy. I didnt have a reservation prior, but the staff were so nice and accommodating and got us seated quickly. I sat near the door and overheard some of their interactions with other guests, and def think service alone was amazing! There's a small tiki bar with some specialty cocktails that i def want to try next time, but despite it being quite a small restaurant there's quite a few tables. Def a cute spot that id come back again! :)
