This is my second time visiting this location, and I've had such a great experience both times! The place is so cute and aesthetic, with a quiet, cozy, and relaxing atmosphere. The Nutella and banana crepe was absolutely delicious, and the panini was really good too. The service is also great and everyone is very welcoming. Definitely a lovely spot to enjoy some coffee and good food!

Cappuccino with oat milk

Cute, clean space. I think the ownership must have changed because this used to be Nelikona, but the offerings seem kind of similar but definitely different. Came with some friends and it was a nice place to get to chat with the right volume of music--it wasn't that busy during the weekday. The food menu looks interesting with crepes and brunchy items, but I just got a drink this time. What I got: Cappuccino with oat milk - This is usually my go-to order to test a new coffee place. The foam was too airy and not thick and velvety--but maybe if you like whole milk it would be different. The drink itself wasn't weak, so it's not too bad. I've definitely had worse. My only issue is that the drink menu has no pricing. You don't know what anything costs. The food options have prices, but drinks you're going in blind. The 12 oz. cappuccino was $5.85 and oat milk was $0.50 just fyi.

Cozy coffee shop with pastries, crepes, sandwiches and more. Couch and table seating. Books for reading. Games for playing. Very nice staff. I ordered the Dubai coffee and peach cake. My partner ordered regular coffee and cheesecake all were very good. The Dubai latte was very sweet because of the pistachio buttered rim but the chopped pistachios made it a bit more savory. We will return and try the crepes for sure.

Yikes. If i could give 0 stars, i would. I ordered an iced latte, paid $8.52, and they gave me pre-pulled espresso that came out of a jug. Added it to a full cup of ice, and then topped it with oat milk. The espresso was obviously watered down and it tasted watered down. I paid nearly $9 for watered espresso and 2 oz of milk. I told the worker and she shrugged her shoulders and said this is what they do here. She was kind but very unhelpful. She did eventually make me a new matter with fresh pulled espresso but it's insane that that isn't the standard. It's robbery. $9 for a pre-made latte is insane. I would not recommend coming. 0/10.

This place is an undiscovered, still private meeting spot for casual or special get-togethers that has one of the largest, most unusually wonderful menu selections of anywhere I've been in the last few years! Their attention to good, old-fashioned customer service is exceptional, giving customers plenty of time to decide on what they want or change it on the fly. And there are always plentiful smiles. Their offerings are listed on a long illuminated menu with pictures and prices so that everything can be easily seen and their counter is adorned with cloches filled with fresh versions of what their bakery had just freshly produced that morning. All orders are delivered to your table with culinarial creative special plate decorations and treatments that are always creative and unique. They have couches, chairs, little group sections and just about every configuration of sitting with other people that can be imagined. I love this place! There's an upright piano with music on the music rack so there's probably live music offered. The prices might seem a little high but they're no more than I've been regularly spending at Starbucks for the last fifteen years. Worth more than a try! Let me know what you think!

Dubai latte

The ambiance is nice here. Came here and sat by the window which was nice and bright. The chairs are cute, but honestly, not too comfy. I enjoyed my Dubai Latte with oat milk. It came with pistachio cream, chopped up pistachios along the rim of the cup. And the cup was large and looked a bit elevated. The taste was good. The pistachio cream really helped the latte to have a good, sweet flavor. However, the price was a little extreme. I think it was close to $9 for the dubai latte with oat milk (I'm guessing the substitute milk was an additional charge). The menu at the counter did not have prices next to their drinks, and I didn't want to go about asking the price of each item since I believe the price is different for different drinks. But I was a little shocked when I paid. However, they did elevate the presentation of it a little more to match the higher price. And it's not too common to get a pistachio cream latte, so I guess you pay to get something more unique. This was a cute spot to hangout. I might be back again.

There is both sweet and savory options. The Dubai latte was delicious. The iced tea is fresh and very good. I will be back next week to try t try the sweet items. The service is fast and kind. There are plenty of seating areas.

Dubái iced latte and pitaya bowl

Loved the Dubai Latte and Pitaya bowl! I've been here before and always enjoyed their food, drinks, and ambiance. Never disappoints. Also I'm always greeted warmly. Highly recommended.

Super cute restaurant. Feels very cozy. Got the chicken curry crepe and it was salty! If I wasn't…read morewith people, I might have complained but it was borderline fine. So...not sure the food is good. I just happen to think the attitude is a little worse. Came with a group and someone in our party ordered the French Onion Soup and then a Croque Monsieur. No one else in our group ordered a starter. What's weird is for some reason they decided to course the soup with everyone's mains. Normal restaurants, including like....your local suburban Chile's, know not to do that but this place thought that was normal. So already, my friend is a course behind everyone because they didn't serve his starter first. What's worse is when he finishes his soup...he doesn't get his main. We actually FINISH our mains and he still hasn't gotten his. He makes a comment VERY NICELY to our waitress like hey! Just wanted to check on my meal! She responds, "all our meals are timed perfectly." What!! My buddy goes, "Okay...I've just been waiting for 15/20 minutes so I think I'm ready for my sandwich." She responds, "okay....let me alert the kitchen." Wait? You didn't even tell them he needed his meal?? We wait another 15 minutes. We flag the waitress again and ask where his meal is and she responds "everything is made to order so the kitchen needs some time." Okay. This is a Croque Monsieur. Are you....rising bread right now? What is happening? So I get frustrated and jump into this and say, "Ya but we've been waiting over 30 minutes for his main. We've all finished so now you're asking my friend to eat alone." She responds, "everything is served hot so what is the problem??" !! I get annoyed because up until this moment, we've been pretty nice. But this waitress not acknowledging any issue or trying to make it better and talking back to us like this is weird. So I just say, "Bring a manager over." Well...it didn't matter. This lady learned her attitude from somewhere and it was probably from the manager. The manager immediately is on the offense like, "you ordered a soup and we wanted you to have the soup hot. And we want your next meal to be hot. We make everything fresh and we clean our dishes in between." The heck? All we want is for my friend to be able to eat his main. So I say, now rudely, "just bring the food. We have waited 30 minutes now. Everyone is done with their meal. If you haven't made it, cancel the order and we'll go somewhere else." She responds, "we usually serve the starter first. If you didn't like that, then don't order a starter." SERIOUSLY!? What is happening!? I think about telling her that USUALLY even if only 1 person has ordered a starter, that gets served first before EVERYONE gets their mains TOGETHER. Instead I say, "listen, cancel the order or give us the food but we aren't waiting any longer." And she goes, "we can't cancel it. The kitchen has been working on it." So I say "this better be home baked bread because they've been working on it for 45 minutes by now." IT STILL takes another 5 minutes to get this meal. It is cold. It is an average Croque Monsieur. And they probably all spit in it. At the very end, the waitress comes over and says, "I see what you mean and there were coursing issues but we take pride in our food and we weren't going to degrade that so we could serve you faster." This place literally lives up to a Parisian stereotype, I guess.

Each and every location features plentiful parking, a social media worthy interior, comfortable elegant seating, and quality desserts that consistently delight everyone who has the opportunity to try them. On my visit here, I tried a different set of items from my Schaumburg visit to test the consistency of quality across different flavor profiles and dessert types, and it delivered perfectly. The mango gelato here is incredible -- with probably the strongest mango flavor I've ever had in a gelato. The Lotus was an elevated version of one of my favorite biscuits. The gelato is incredible, creamy and flavorful -- and something I'd happily serve with most any dessert. The waffle was flavorful as usual which paired perfectly with the chocolate mix. I also wanted to try My Passion to get a mix of different fruits -- as I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh the fruit was at the other location. This was equally as great, with fruit presented at the perfect ripeness. Extra kudos to the kiwi which wasn't sour at all, and in fact was one of the first items to be finished completely. The pineapple was also super juicy, sweet, and flavorful. I wish we'd gotten more eclairs, as the filling was super delicious. Maybe the weakest item in this dish was the brownie, which was only good -- while everything else we'd tried was great to amazing. Overall, worth a special trip for any dessert lover. This business consistently delivers top notch dishes at very reasonable prices.

They just don't seem like they want to be there, and it is just a bit off putting. Having said that, we do occasionally still stop by. We have ventured out to try stuff that's NOT waffles. The kids liked the small quesadillas i think-- not greasy and nice plain flavors, easy to please the kids. My oldest really liked the tuna melt and it was good, and generous portions. Easy to split with the other kids. The ironman in comparison is so tiny and not worth the price-- which is really just paying for the "health" aspect of it. I get it. Overall, the foods are still really good, we just don't really like having to gamble with who our server is that day!

We always try to support local, especially when visiting from out of town. This place did not disappoint. The pizza was amazing. Better than the 2 major chain restaurants that Chicago is famous for.

As with any new business, there are growing pains; forgotten utensils, had to ask for the check, minimal things that will come with practice.

He's planning on stopping on his way home from work for pizza, it's that good. The salad was well made with the dressing in the side. My uncle is Greek, and I think he'd approve of this salad. We ate outside as it was beautiful evening, but went onsite and it is cute, clean, and welcoming. A great space! We'll be back for more pizza, and to try the gyros, pasta and crepes. The quality is outstanding and the pride they have in delivering a great product is apparent. A bonus is being able to take a nice walk by the Prairie pond after dinner. It's a perfect date night idea!
