Unfortunately, it mostly tasted like horchata, no coffee flavor at all. At first I thought they were just heavy handed on the horchata (it is in the name after all) but after drinking it, I felt no caffeine. I believe I may have just gotten a horchata. The ambiance of this coffeehouse is great, they have plants and original art for sale as well as some games. I will likely go back to give them another chance, but was bummed with my order.

I stopped by on a Monday and ordered a smoothie and a wrap. The smoothie came out in a reasonable…read moreamount of time, but it was missing ingredients. The food, however, took nearly 30 minutes--and every 10 minutes or so, someone came over to let me know yet another ingredient was unavailable. When the food finally arrived, it was lukewarm and the avocado was rubbery. I felt sick trying to eat it. To be clear, the staff members were incredibly kind and professional--it's not their fault that management can't keep basic ingredients in stock. I even thanked them for their effort and time. But the food itself was just not edible. They kindly brought over the blonde male manager to process a refund, and that's where things went downhill. He was extremely rude and dismissive. I remained polite, but he clearly didn't care about the experience or the quality of what was served. Honestly, he should've been embarrassed--there's no way he would have eaten what I was given. Overall, a horrible experience saved only by the professionalism of the frontline staff. Management, especially the manager I interacted with, was the real disappointment.

I don't know if it is actually open to the public or just for members and guests at FFC. I've been coming here for years, but never realized it had its own Yelp page. Today, I am enjoying a post-swim 12-ounce "Energizer": Orange, cucumber, carrot, and apple juice. It is priced heartily at $6.60, tax included. It is prepared fresh, so be prepared for a short wait for the fresh juices and smoothies. There is also a grab-and-go cooler with many different energy drinks, bottled water, and flavored waters. I think $6.60 for a fresh juice and $7.85 for a fresh fruit smoothie is probably the going rate in this area. That price is too high for me to be a regular thing, but I enjoy one once a month.

When I entered there was no one there but the owner. I decided to order Bodega Combo #3 with an upgrade to a Horchata. I was told there were no Columbian empanadas (Bodega combo # 2) so that is what led me to order the other. I swear it took the owner 15 - 20 minutes to make both the empanadas and horchata. The empanadas were frozen, not fresh, and placed in an air fryer. The drink made had tons of ice and just as much cinnamon. Personally, there was no balance. I did not enjoy it. The empanada choices: are spinach & artichoke, chicken, and vegetarian. The best was the vegetarian, then the chicken followed by the spinach and artichoke. In my honest opinion, for an $11.50 meal, you would have been better off grabbing a $3 bag of tostinos pizza rolls and coke from the dollar tree and being more filled and satisfied. I was not impressed and I honestly believe that the space has so much more potential to draw in a larger crowd if the food choices were improved.

We were previously considering Italian food but so glad we chose this place for dinner because it was soooo yummy and so cute. I absolutely would be back to try the rest of their menu (especially their wide range of Kanom Thai or Thai desserts). They also serve Japanese food upstairs and that did look yummy although we stuck to the Thai menu. The staff was great. Everything was good - we got cherry blossom/sakura flavored sake, roti mataba as an appetizer, and for entrees, the habrae empire and Khao Kang Karee Chicken. Everything we got was good and worth trying, but I definitely loved the roti mataba and would order that again. Staff was also great. Cute for a date and also delicious.

This restaurant is a combination of Thai and a Japanese izakaya. We ordered the chicken skin, pad Thai, basil chicken stir fry, tom yum, and mango sticky rice. The chicken skin and the basil chicken came out first and they were amazing! The sweet dipping sauce with the chicken skin really pulls it together. We got level 2 spicy (out of 5) for the basil chicken and it did not have a single kick of spice but it was still very yummy and flavorful. As for the other entrees, we were very disappointed. The pad Thai tasted like BBQ sauce rather than pad Thai. The seasoning was very off putting. The tom yum was good but more on the sweeter side with my friends and I were not fond of. For dessert we got mango sticky rice. The sticky rice was warm and soft, and the mangoes were sweet and tart! Great combination of both especially with the coconut.
