They are owned and run by Journey Church, which is why they are in a Church building and it gives lowkey church lobby vibes. The Coffee here is excellent, I personally love the one and one, which is an espresso shot and a cortado for around $4. Service is kind, informative, and helpful. My one critique is parking is pretty confusing. It's a little challenging to actually find the shop, but it's nothing you can't solve in 45 seconds if you're determined to get your caffeine fix.

It's noticeably smaller than their main Midtown location, but still comfortable. They offer a selection of snacks for purchase, including cookies (ube, pandan), muffins, burritos, and quiches. Quiches can be heated upon request. Popular drinks: "1987" (iced) and Vietnamese Hazelnut. I tried the 1987 drink. For my taste, it was a bit too creamy and on the sweeter side. Service: Quick and efficient. You can either use the self-serve station or order/pay directly at the counter.

I wasn't intending on collecting the set, but now I just need Cinnamoroll (#6 of the collection), so if anyone spots one, please let me know! This location has a play area and drive-thru. It was pretty clean, an employee was also sweeping the outside when I arrived. Food-wise, McDonalds is always like 2-3 stars for me, but the person was helpful and my food was out super quickly, so 4 stars for this location.

I almost decided to not order anything since I felt full from ramen but with reasonable prices and the opportunity to try a new yogurt-based boba drink (I haven't seen many of them in Sac), I thought why not. 25% sugar is the move for Strawberry Blizz ($6.75). It's a strawberry blend with a wonderful conglomeration of flavors between the smoothness of the strawberries, harder textured apples/mangoes, and honey aftertaste of the boba. I didn't sample the milk or fruit teas but I highly recommend giving the yogurt blizz drinks a try instead.

Our order included chilaquiles with extra avocado, avocado toast, two Mexican mochas, and pan de muerto. With tax and tip, we paid $64.32, so this was not a cheap breakfast. We paid at 11:21 a.m. My husband did not receive his chilaquiles until 12:07 p.m., and my avocado toast arrived at 12:10 p.m. (49 minutes later). While I was still waiting, the waiter said, "I'll be back with your waffles," even though I had ordered avocado toast with no egg. The chilaquiles and Mexican mochas were good. However, the avocado toast had absolutely no flavor, and the potatoes had no seasoning. I only ate them because I had paid for them. I understand that restaurants get busy, but at a minimum, staff should check in, acknowledge the delay, and reassure customers that they haven't been forgotten. Instead, we waited nearly 50 minutes with very little communication. The long wait, order confusion, lack of communication, and bland food made the overall experience disappointing, especially at this price. If you decide to go to Xulo, hold off on tip until after you receive your food and see how the service actually is on that day. Don't make the same mistake I made. For excellent chilaquiles and service, just go to Blue Agave!

It wasn't busy at all when I was there around 1pm. Service was good. I ordered the La bou chicken salad and some Thai chicken soup. Also got a turkey sandwich on baguette. The La bou salad was refreshing but the dill sauce jar I got for it was a bit light and runny this time around. Not the usual semi thick dill sauce they used to have. The Thai soup was flavorful. And the turkey on baguette was good. The turkey hot bake was great just wished the dill sauce wasn't thin water like. I also ordered Togo for my kids and a man took my order as I was walking up to pick it up. I heard my number called so I walked up . Didn't realized it was mine until I asked and they said they had just placed it on counter. So I told them the man must've took it because I don't see any bags. They were irritated at the man but remade my order really quickly and apologized and handed me a new bag.

I never go to Starbucks on my own, but I'm always in when a friend wants to go. We had just left…read morethe Elk Grove Regional Park and after a cold stay there for a fun festival my husband was looking for something hot to drink. We looked in the shopping center to the right, but no cafes popped out for us. It's always a good idea to shop local, but when you're in need of a hot drink you'll go where you have to and today it's Starbucks. My husband is a loyal customer to Starbucks and goes at least twice a month to pick up breakfast for his mom when he visits her. It's quick and convenient and she loves their oatmeal. And you can't say no to Mom when she loves something so healthy for her. Today's trip to Starbucks was tough as there was a lot of traffic. You aren't crossing at a protected area, you're risking your life crossing two lanes of busy traffic. Starbucks is located to the North of the On and off ramps for highway 99 right off of Elk Grove Blvd. In the cove is located a quick quack car wash and a Burger King, I think it's a Burger King, but don't quote me, there is also a large gas station there. Getting out of the parking lot is just as tough. There is a lot of traffic coming out of the Quick Quack car wash, but people were nice and they let us exit which was a blessing. Good thing we were making a right hand turn on to the 99 North so we didn't have to cut across any traffic. Starbucks has a good size parking lot. You have to cut through the gas station to get there so it's a little tricky. They also have 2 drive through lanes, but one lane was blocked today. Inside it's really pleasant. So much more quite then the experience arriving there. It's so calm and realizing inside and they have plenty of seating available. Near the wall there is a padded bench the length of the Starbucks and there are tables and chairs for your guests. They also have additional stand alone tables. They have 2 unisex bathrooms and a had washing station that has the soap, water, drier all connected. Kind of cool and new wave. We had a real pleasant time. My husband ordered an Earl Grey Tea and a new blonde brownie with raspberry swirl on it. I think the blonde had butterscotch chips in it, but they couldn't verify when I asked. I doubt it was nuts. I really enjoyed the Blonde, it wasn't overly sweet and the raspberry was a nice sweet touch. The Earl Grey Tea came out really hot and strong. They use 2 tea bags and it came in a double cup. He likes the double cut as he can pour some to drink in one while keeping the other half with the lid on to keep it hot. I'm glad we made the stop and he was able to warm up, but due to the traffic I'd pick a different Starbucks to go to the in the future. We did make it in and out ok, but it was a bit nerve wracking.

It is situated in the quaint old small downtown of Elk Grove, and it has a really cool vibe even on the outside. Once inside, I wanted to try one of their coffees and one of their breakfast sandwiches, which I had heard were terrific. I had a large hot latte which was very satisfying. Their roast is robust without being bitter or overpowering. Not the strongest cup of coffee I have ever had, but very good nonetheless. If you prefer more kicked, then I would have them add an extra shot. Off of their Panini menu, I tried a grilled cheese sandwich that I added bacon to. All of the ingredients on the inside of the Panini were terrific, but the star of the show is thick cut sourdough bread. When toasted up as part of being a grilled cheese, it is crunchy and flavorful. A tremendous sandwich. I look forward to returning to try something else on the menu. This is strictly a breakfast and lunch place. They close at 2 PM, however, it is worth making the drive and trying Tule. By the way, the team behind the counter was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They all added to the experience.

Unfortunately, the service and overall experience left a lot to be desired. I took my girlfriend here while she was visiting from out of town. I asked if they could make avocado toast, and they told me it wasn't on the menu. We asked if they had bread and avocado, which they did, but they still wouldn't make it simply because it wasn't a menu item. I found that response very odd, especially for what seemed like a simple request. When I mentioned the experience to my sister, she told me she had a similar issue. She and a friend were the only customers on the patio and waited about 15 minutes for their drinks. Eventually, they went inside and found the drinks sitting at the counter. No one had even thought to bring them out to the patio. This place has a lot of potential, but unfortunately it feels like the effort isn't there yet. Two stars for the aesthetics and the potential, but the service needs some sparkle
