There is also a real coffee shop with pastries. Staff is super friendly. They offer patio seating, which I enjoy a lot :)

I asked for a Bonsai Smoothie (açaí, strawberry, banana, almond milk) and instead was given Berry Mojito (strawberry, blueberry, banana, mint, almond milk), but it was still tasty. No complaints about my Poke Bowl (ahi tuna, seaweed salad, sweet onion, cucumber, furikake, crispy wontons, poke sauce, spicy mayo) - I chose mixed greens instead of white rice as the base - which was fresh and well-portioned.

Very standard and inside a sterile (but gorgeous) building so I wouldn't go unless you're in the area and need coffee or want a new place to study! I got an iced lavender macchiato and it was ok. The coffee tasted a bit like the end of the coffee pot type coffee and it was very milky. The burritos are big and seem good though so i'll probably come back for one!

The space is light and bright. A good mix of indoor and outdoor seating. The food is delicious and…read morefresh. I ordered the Southwest Burrito. It was so nice to find a place that will do it with tofu instead of egg. I also ordered the Green smoothie. It was very refreshing- you can tell the ingredients (especially the ginger) were blended fresh--not some generic mix. They have a complimentary water station with a seasonal "spa" water. Today's was blueberry lemon and it was a nice touch. They also offer complimentary refills on drip coffee and at the self serve station offer half and half, oat, and almond milk options. The service was very fast and attentive. You order at the counter and they give you a number and serve you at the table. They offered a share plate and extra setting when they noticed it was two of us sharing the really large burrito (that was served in two halves). Only notes: I wish they had larger diameter straws for the smoothies. It was thick (which was awesome), but a little tough to get through the small straw at first. Also, I literally did a loop around the building to find the place. I felt so silly after because I didn't look up. lol. When you get to the end of the circle, look up and it is on the corner of the building on the right (nearest the street).

Very nice and clean inside. The toilet/bathroom was so clean!!…read more Ordered the 3 egg omelette with bacon and the eggs were cooked perfectly. Not overdone like most places do. They were nice and fluffy. The sourdough toast was also so good!! I rarely eat my bread side but this one was a must eat! The breakfast burrito with bacon was also great with fluffy eggs inside. The crispy home potatoes inside also added to the taste. The outside of the tortilla was also nice and grilled for a crunchy exterior. The salsa was homemade and had a nice spice. The outdoor area was very clean and spacious. With various types of table tops and chairs, including low seating options. The barista/ employee was also friendly and helpful. Can't wait to return to try more items or just to hang out. Very relaxing environment!

Hidden gem alert! TOAST is fabulous. FYI: TOAST shares a parking lot with Ken Sushi Workshop (Ken's…read morewas packed on a Friday at 12PM and they couldn't seat me for 20+ mins; being a solo diner didn't matter, so be sure to make a ressie at Ken's if you want to eat there!). But I digress, back to the parking. Be prepared to look for a spot to park, but atleast parking is ample and shaded. I left TOAST before 2PM and people were still driving into the parking lot! I walked to TOAST a little reluctant, seeing how it's inside a corporate building. Once inside, I followed the signs. The interior is a little sterile but it is a much larger and pleasant space than I expected. No music. It is very quiet inside. There is a pretty outside patio in the back that caught my eye but I chose to sit inside. The booth seating is very comfortable. This place is a solid choice if you're single btw. You can sit pretty much anywhere with your laptop or if you just want to read a book and enjoy some fine ass coffee in peace, you can! I love coffee and espresso, and it turns out their Mexican Mocha is quite the fabulous diva. The mocha cup is a glorious, oversized mug with the most delicious sprinkled cinnamon on top. It was hot, rich and delicious. I missed breakfast (it's over by 11:30AM, so I'll return to try their French Toast and their Filipino Breakfast burrito). I decided to get the "Ain't Your Classic Burger" cheeseburger, which is on the Sandwich side of their menu. That Chuck brisket patty, you guys... ooh, it's to DIE for. Tender. Moist. Gigantic. A whopper size of a burger with the perfect amount of melted cheese, pickles, spring lettuce (yay! No sad iceberg crap), chopped fresh red onions (my favorite), brown butter dijonaise (ugh so good), and a secret sauce that was actually worth being called a secret. I didn't add extras, but you can actually add an egg or bacon to your burger. High Cholesterol lovers can unite and rejoice here lol. it's worth noting how fresh all of the ingredients tasted. The brioche bun was a nice choice. So was the crisp spring mix lettuce, the juicy tomato and crunchy red onion bits. I ordered a side of fries and tbh, they were average. They reminded me of an attempt on McD's french fries. They did come in a cute stainless steel fry basket and it does elevate the plate presentation, but I might skip those next time. It was the cheeseburger that had my full attention here... well, and the delightful mocha. No pictures this time. I devoured everything. I think this is a solid cafe on this side of town. It's hard to find zero wait times, available and comfortable seating, fresh food, solid portions, and continual peacefulness in a morning/early lunch establishment. I'll be back soon.

Based on my experience, I'm going to have to disagree with my fellow yelpers on this one....this…read morewas a disappointment for me. It's a spacious cafe with plenty of tables both inside and outside on the patio. It would be nice to come here for a meeting or study but they close early at 2pm so even for a late lunch I felt a bit rushed to get out. The menu online shows both breakfast and lunch items but they are only served during their respective meal hours. Service was friendly and professional. Although there is free parking, it is in a shared lot with several offices and other restaurants and it was hard to find parking. Now the food, I felt it was really overpriced and not tasty. My salad was an appetizer size, super salty to the point it was off putting, and it had mint in it which made the taste weird for an Asian salad. With chicken added, the small salad was $17. I also got a soda which was half ice so I felt ripped off of another $3. I was still hungry after paying $21 for my meal. My colleague also felt her farmer's market salad was bland and not filling. Carmel Valley has a lot of food options. I don't know if I'd come back or recommend this place for others.

The meat of this review: the owner was so kind & prompt to reach out about my complaint for the loud-echoing music (given its finals week and this is the only 24/7 spot open on campus)..and I've been awake for 52 mf hours yall so I just can't play rn... and the employees sure enough were swift to respect the condition of finals right now. I LOOOVE music so I hate to be a party kill truly, but I respect all levels of this establishment for everything considered.

It's also referred to as The Loft and can be found on the second floor of Price Center. The location itself is great, and it's a nice moderate-volume establishment with decent views and cozy decor. The staff is super chill and helpful, and they're very efficient given how few of them there are. The prices are pretty fair, and their menu's got great variety food and drink-wise. I usually grab an iced chai latte from here, and it's a pretty solid mix. As for food, my staple used to be the lamb burger, and I wholeheartedly recommend it! The patty is cooked perfectly, paired with a nice brioche bun and the yogurt sauce, pickled cucumbers and onions? Super solid. Since switching to my pescatarian lifestyle, I've been ordering the fish tacos, which are a great serving size and pretty solid in terms of taste. The shrimp tacos are also pretty good, but there's something about the chipotle cream in the former that's got me hooked. Their carnitas taco is also good, but I'd recommend the seafood ones over it. Nonetheless, they do do taco Tuesdays and happy hour deals for the tacos! The side of fries is also a must for me, and I actually find them to be really good (I'm a fan of thinner cut fries, and I'll usually ask for them to be cooked well). The lobster roll is also another recommended pick, especially since it's so affordable for a lobster roll and it's packed with lots of meat without any overwhelming flavor. I'm just such a fan of the vibe and atmosphere of this place, and they're always playing really solid music. It's a nice place to be for solid food and background noise while you do work in a lively setting.

It was nice that we didn't have to wait for our food as it was pretty packed during lunchtime but the food did come out cold. Interior was cute and spacious with lots of tables and had a chill vibe. I ordered the turkey club and it was decent. A classic sandwich but not too thick or big and the bread was dry and crumbly. The fries were pretty good and flavorful. I also had a strawberry matcha latte but it just tasted like strawberry milk. Very sweet and milky with no matcha taste at all. Just from looking at the color I already knew. Definitely do not get the matcha.
