    The best munch spot in the area by far. Try the Chipotle chicken wrap or California chicken salad.

    Love the little bread mirror they have set up near the front, it's very cute! They have seatings…read morescattered around and the set up is like a typical asian bakery where you can grab your items but I was primarily here to try their tea since I love boba and if they call themselves teamania I hope that means its great. White Magnolia Milk Tea - Floral without being perfumey or too sharp! Pretty good balance of tea to milk ratio and reminds me of molly tea. 4/5 Jasmine Milk Tea - honestly pretty good too. feels like a molly tea knock off with the menu offerings, cup designs and even flavor profile. its slightly too sharp but still good. 3.75/5 Da Hong Pao Milk Tea - the tea flavor is there but it doesn't mix as well as the magnolia or jasmine. I think they are better at more floral teas but this wasnt bad. 2/5 Banana Pudding Matcha - Banana flavor was not strong, it was not sweet when it should have definitely been more sweet and the flavors just didnt mix very well 0.5/5 Portugese Tart - pretty good but nothing too memorable 2.75/5

    UPDATE: The last few times I've been here it just hasn't been as good. The food options have faded…read moreand the drinks have just been okay. The tofu steam bun -- easily my favorite lunch item in the area -- really didn't work. It's still an interesting experience but I really can't recommend a place I now avoid. --- PROS - Interesting selection, interesting food, lots of options, overall friendly staff. - Bathrooms were clean. The interior of the restaurant seemed like a good meeting/date spot. Although they had Wifi, I wouldn't call this a great place to come and study or get work done, although I saw people doing that. I've had the Vietnamese coffee twice, the first time was great, the second time was just okay. Food items are very unique, so much so I didn't like some of them but I still enjoyed the experience. Try something that sounds weird, it's half the fun of coming in here. CONS * Allergies - it wasn't clear what all everything was made with so if you're trying to avoid gluten or peanuts or eggs, I didn't see much on ingredients. I know for some people that's a red flag. * The tea. We just thought it was above average but not amazing. I mean its right in the name, come on. * Collecting items - you gotta look for the little trays and the salad tongs. That's what you use to grab stuff out of the cases. I know for most people that was super obvious but it wasn't for me. * Summertime note: during the hotter months I've noticed they seem to have some issues with keeping things cool.

Our server, Gabriel, truly elevated our lunch into something memorable. He recommended the salmon BLT, and I'm so glad I followed his suggestion--it was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors were perfectly balanced, and the salmon was cooked to perfection. What truly set this visit apart, however, was Gabriel's service. His warm demeanor, attentiveness, and professionalism were five-star across the board. He anticipated our needs without being intrusive and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout the meal. It was such a pleasant afternoon, made even better by how well we were cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend this spot for lunch--and if you have the chance, definitely ask to be seated with Gabriel. Two thumbs up!

The cafe on the ground floor of Total Wine HA. The entrance might be a bit hard to find, but it is on the side that is facing the main road. While it's a small cafe, it has a menu that contains various salads, soups, and sandwiches. Also, I believe Rock Cafe has Indian food on Mondays and Thursdays. Since I visited on a Thursday and didn't want a sandwich, I decided to go with the Butter Chicken. OMG! The dish was so yummy. In fact, the plan was to eat half of it and save the rest for dinner. However, it was so delicious that I ate the entire thing! The owner/manager has a great rapport with the Rock Cafe's visitors and seems to be on a first name basis with many of them. I have a feeling that I will have a few more lunches at Rock Cafe.

Nice full-size sandwich, nothing fancy, but filling enough. Other reviews mention this, but might as well: the entrance towards the main parking lot is secured. There is an entrance facing the road, with limited parking, that you won't need to bother the security guard to access. (Shoutout to the guard today though, who saw me looking confused and knew right away where I was trying to go.)

I have to tell you that my granddaughter absolutely adores Jamie's challah rolls. She has a severe gluten allergy and celiacs disease. So, to find a bakery that makes delicious baked goods that she can eat, is a true miracle. I even order extra to take home with her after our holiday dinner. Red Bandana's cupcakes have become a birthday staple in our home. The service, the selection, and the quality are all fabulous. I even met my neighbor picking up baked goods at the same time. The very best part is that my granddaughter can feel just like everyone else, enjoying her delicious baked goods, with no fear of a food allergy reaction. Thank you Jamie and Red Bandana Bakery.

The cake ordering form is also very clear and easy to do substitutions and customizations. They were very friendly through the whole process and pickup was very smooth. As for the cake itself, I am personally not that well versed in gluten free/ dairy free desserts but my aunt enjoyed the cake! The cake to me was both moist but also dense at the same time; I personally like a more fluffy/ airy cake but that's my preference. The strawberry frosting was on the sweeter side; dense and sweet but honestly very nice strawberry flavor. The cake itself was beautiful! The filling was apricot reserves/jam. It was yummy, but I did feel like maybe it wasn't enough filling/ there needed to be something else in there as well that's light and airy to offset the more dense cake. Overall though, I would definitely come here again for a gluten-free/dairy free cake. The people here and the service here is excellent and the cakes are beautiful.

My companion had a tuna melt (solid albacore) with pepper jack cheese on an English muffin (also with chips). Both portions were huge. The veggies were still crunchy but cooked thoroughly (zucchini, squash, peopers and onions) with red pepper hummus stuffed in a huge burrito style spinach tortilla. Comfort food done well. As a bonus there was a pickle bar of half sour, full sour pickles, cornichons, sauerkraut and pickled peppers. Favorites were the half sour pickles and sauerkraut (went well with the wrap). Great meal!
