I walked in with an hour before closing, starving and just wanting a slice, I was prepared to pay but they insisted I just take the pizza and have a great night, for free!! They threw in 3 slices, cheese with raw red onions and pepperoncinis. Even though they had been sitting for some time, those slices were still amazing! The sauce is phenomenal, packed full of flavor!! I've been here a couple times and the food is always so good, but shoot, never been given food for free and with so much enthusiasm!! I felt bad, idk if one of the workers were saving that for their take home slice or if they just had extra of the slices they were going to toss out anyways but dang that was still tasty.

Service | Chicken & Waffles | Raspberry Latte…read more Service - The service was the weak point of the experience. Our waiter was friendly, helpful, and pleasant to interact with, but overall the service was slow and inattentive. I'm not sure if he was covering multiple sections, but we visited on a Friday morning when the restaurant appeared to be about 65-75% full, so it didn't seem overwhelmed. Chicken & Waffles - Overall, a tasty dish. The chicken was flavorful, and the waffle was well prepared. My main critique is the ratio. There was significantly more waffle than chicken--roughly a 5:8 ratio. Personally, I prefer a 1:1 chicken-to-waffle ratio so that every bite has the perfect balance. Good meal, but the portion balance could be improved. Raspberry Latte - The highlight of the visit. The raspberry flavor complemented the coffee perfectly without being overpowering. It was smooth, well-balanced, and something I would absolutely order again. Why Not Five Stars? - The slow service. We noticed several tables in our section experiencing the same issue. One outdoor table waited a long time for drinks and didn't receive their food until we were halfway through our meal, despite arriving before us. Pro Tip: There is plenty of parking behind the restaurant, which makes visiting easy. After your meal, take some time to walk around the town. It's charming, pedestrian-friendly, and worth exploring.

I had been told what a great spot this was for breakfast and lunch by so many people, so when a friend invited me, I couldn't wait to try it out. Since then, I've organized a few brunches with friends, and we have never been disappointed. The menu is absolutely HUGE, both for food options and beverages. Whether you are looking for a savory crepe with coffee or avocado toast with a mimosa bucket, you can get it all here. I could probably dine here every morning for a year and get something different every time! There's plenty of seating inside and outside the restaurant, and dogs are welcome for outdoor seating. (When my friend brought a frenchie she was petsitting, several employees asked if we needed water or other items for her!) There are also umbrellas for the outdoor tables for sunny mornings. I've received great recommendations from my servers, and they are knowledgeable about their extensive menu. Even when we've had complicated orders, everything has always been perfect, and I've enjoyed my experience every time. I look forward to many delicious visits to Clifton Cafe in the future!

This place is definitely a go to for a lot of people who are working or studying. On our first visit we tried the Midori Lychee and the DB. They weren't lying when they said the Midori Lychee was crushable and a beloved favorite. The combination of matcha, lavender, and lychee is perfect and so refreshing every time. The DB wasn't for me, not too much of a fan of citrus and coffee. The next few times we went, we've tried the Clouds in Sicily, Cream Cloud Coffee, Hojicha, Chrysanthemum, and the Matcha Limeade and they were all great. The staff here really put care in the drinks they make here. Definitely our new go to matcha and coffee spot. Hopefully they add more coffee drinks in the future but it's still great. Also need to try the soft serve as I've only heard good things.

Finally got to try the local favorite for ice cream! We got…read morethe ice cream flight--you can choose 4 flavors. We went with the daily specials: Cookie Monster, Funfetti, FlufferNutter, and Cow Tripping. With tax, it was $8.25. Pricing is quite good compared to other ice cream establishments. Line was pretty long but we got our ice cream after 25 minutes of standing in line--it took 5 minutes once our order was placed to get our order. Nice staff and there is a bathroom onsite but you have to ask so they can let you in. Cookie Monster: Definitely get if you love a good amount of cookie in your ice cream. Such a fun blue color! Funfetti: The birthday cake flavor isn't too strong but it came with a reasonable amount of sprinkles. FlufferNutter: The peanut butter was more apparent in their chunks than the ice cream itself. It was quite nutty overall, but not too in your face. Cow Tripping: I was hoping it would be my favorite since it is chocolate with Reese's pieces, but it didn't have much Reese's. Good chocolate ice cream though.

You can get everything from teas and coffee to specialty drinks, and the dessert menu has tons of variety -- pastries, crepes, bingsoo, and even a few savory items. There's honestly something for everyone here. The décor is one of my favorite parts of the experience. It's extremely quirky and eclectic, almost like wandering through an old-timey, whimsical field of curiosities. Every corner has something unexpected, and that's part of the charm. There's plenty of seating, but it does get busy, especially during peak hours. There's an attached parking lot, which makes stopping by super convenient. Prices lean a little on the higher side, but that's pretty normal for specialty dessert cafés. Overall, it's a delightful spot if you're craving creative desserts, unique drinks, or just a cozy and quirky place to hang out. I'd definitely come back!

Not sure what happened, but our pancakes tasted more like eggs than pancakes lol. Overall I'll go back and give it another shot, the pancakes were probably an off day. The onigiris were all pretty good. The matchas were great flavors but not quality grade. The ambiance is casual and there's tons of cute anime art on the wall.

This cafe is located in Vienna, and there's plenty of free slanted parking in front as well as parking in the complex next to and across if you're willing to walk. I've been to this location when it first opened years ago and they've really upped their menu and decorations inside since. The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date!
