The food was so good it made my day; adding tempeh to the mighty bowl with the garlic and tahini sauce is so good. 10/10 recommend. The real reason I came to write this review though is because staff is super sweet and genuine. It was my first time coming here, and I had a lot of questions about the menu to the point where I could feel myself becoming annoying (face palm). The gal taking my order was Jessi, she was so helpful, kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, and authentically friendly. I can't remember what it was that we shared a laugh about, but I walked away happy because of that type of simple interaction that restores your faith in humanity. People who have never worked in the service industry are generally clueless and walk into a restaurants like it's their first day on earth. But even with my string of annoying questions, she never once made me feel like I was being a nuisance. Whoever is in charge here you should give Jessi a raise. The food is great, but she's the reason I'll be coming back!

UPDATE: Harlow responded that my items were picked up over…read morean hour after ordering. This is not true. I ordered for pickup myself and picked up less than 10minutes After I placed the PU order. That's the whole reason I said they were "exceptionally fast" in my original review. The ambiance was cool and the service was exceptionally fast. Unfortunately both items I ordered were gross. I love chocolate and peanut butter together esp with coffee but their drink was inedible with an awful taste. Maybe they gave me almond butter by mistake. Woof I couldn't even force it down. The quesadilla was incredibly greasy and nothing like a quesadilla. The mouth feel of the walnut chorizo with the soft vegetables was weird / it felt gritty. The flavors fell as well. The only highlight was the salsa but I'm 90% sure it was salsa de welo which you can buy at a store. No one would finish my quesadillas at the table. Major miss for me. Some of the worst food I've had - sorry.

Being a vegan, I appreciate that she serves good well seasoned food. Do yourself a favor and check her out. I'll definitely be back!

Fried olives with Marcona almonds were tad salty for my taste so would probably skip that next time but everything else hit just right with flavor, texture and portion size.

I ordered the Bo Bun Hieu ($15) -- a spicy noodle soup served with vegan beef, tofu, and round noodles, with a very generous side of cabbage, lettuce, and fresh basil to mix in. The broth was very flavourful but prohibitively salty after all. That said, the vegan beef and tofu were really nicely one, and the meal came together well. My wife got the kung pao ($15), which she said was solid but nothing tantalizing flavour-wise. My friend ordered the curry soup, but it seemed more like a curry that you pour over rice since it was served with rice and no noodles -- not sure what the deal was there. The bite I tried was tasty at least. All in all, a solid all-vegan no-frills spot for Vietnamese in the east part of the city.

The Pandan colada had a distinct pandan taste which blended so harmoniously with the pineapple and coconut flavor! It was so creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. I am also lucky to have tried their Salted Ube Coconut Cream Thai Coffee because not only was it THE most otherworldly coffee I have had in a while but apparently it is a seasonal offering! I also made sure to let the owner know how delicious it was and that it needs a permanent space on the menu! For food, we got the Nam Khao Tod and the Drunken Noodles. The Nam Khao Tod was amazing - sweet, tangy, and crispy all at the same time! But I would have to say that I didn't really care for the drunken noodles as they were a bit too sweet for me. To finish off our meal we got their famous Pandan Mango Sticky Rice which totally lived up to the hype! The mango was so sweet and juicy (just like how we get them in India) and the pandan sticky rice was perfectly chewy and so flavorful! Honestly, I can't wrap my head around the fact that I was able to find so many of my favorite ingredients at one place - would come back here in a heartbeat if I find myself in Portland again!

Great vibe and thoughtful service, though the iced tea missed the mark…read more ​We stopped by this beautiful café during a day trip to Astoria, and it completely won us over with its cozy atmosphere and kind hospitality. ​We ordered the Tempeh Reuben: grilled tempeh, house-made sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese with house-made Reuben sauce on their signature scorcher rye. It was absolutely outstanding! Every ingredient felt incredibly fresh and vibrant. The rich flavors of the grilled tempeh and the perfect tang of the sauerkraut paired beautifully with the hearty, fresh-baked rye. ​The service was also wonderful and incredibly thoughtful--they noticed we were sharing and kindly split the sandwich into two separate plates for us before bringing it out, which we truly appreciated. ​The only downside was the iced tea, which unfortunately tasted quite watered down and lacked flavor. Aside from that, it's a fantastic spot. If you're exploring the historic streets of Astoria and looking for high-quality, conscious food, this place is definitely worth a visit!

Their pastry section has so many options that it was hard to choose (BUT I AM ALWAYS UP FOR THE TASK!)... I landed on the cinnamon and cardamom morning bun. It was more dense than I was expecting, which isn't a bad thing at all, just an observation. It was crispy on the outside with a soft and sweet inside; it was so delicious. The outside was almost crystallised with the cinnamon and cardamom (So. Dang. Good). We got an americano and a chai tea with almond milk. The coffee was fine but the chai wasn't my favorite. Okay quality but it was more a chai tea with milk than a chai latte that I was thinking it would be. You can also buy something from the "pay it forward" menu so that all members of the community can access this yummy cafe, regardless of ability to pay. Loved seeing that! There is a large breakfast menu, too, in addition to the pastries... they had breakfast tacos, sandwiches, and more! They also sell bagels and bread loafs.
