Good breakfast
Jesse S.

Going in for the first time and trying the breakfast cant complain it was good . However what surprise me was that you had a limited of 30minutes to be in the restaurant. which I'm like really so pretty much what you trying to say that if I order something and it take long I have to speed to eat with a limited time. That kinda make me think twice if I should go to eat or not either way they have their reason. Regardless the food is good

*5th Stop on Jeff O's 2010 Roosevelt Avenue Food Crawl* The muggy heat ultimately became too much. Sweaty and delirious, we began seeking out places with air conditioning for intermittent respites. Vanilla Cafe was one such place that ultimately made for a nice stop. They claim to have the best iced coffee in town ($1.75) and offer a delicious selection of bubble teas and fresh fruit frappes, but I ultimately differed. One clear standout on the menu caught my eye: Ovaltine. I ordered up a small cup ($1.50) with sugar and was pleased with the result. A taste I had not encountered since early childhood was now before me. This was so delightful. Whimsical and reminiscing was I. Recommend.

Bacon egg and cheese

You're better off with coffee or juices but nothing from the grill. I came to eat a quick bite but ended up hating my choice . I rather a Manhattan price of a bacon egg and cheese than a burned bacon egg and cheese with 1 half strip of bacon and light egg on it for $7. Never again !!!

Had it to go.

See all

They also have an amazing Colombian cake that just falls apart in your hands and in your mouth - so tender and sweet and delicious.

As stated before, I finally came back to try the savory foods from Tea Cup Cafe!…read more Starting off, my fiancé ordered the Crispy Fish. The sauce that was served was absolutely delicious with the signature tanginess and sweetness of Thai food. The hot pot that I ordered was also enjoyed to the fullest! The food here was super good but also I love liver so I was glad they had a hot pot option that included that! After a delicious meal, we finished off with the mango bingsu which also was a huge hit! The bingsu was super fluffy and light! This meal was definitely worth it and didn't leave me feeling super heavy. The service was also great even though they were always full house with some parties waiting and only one person serving. I will be back next time to try their Thai barbecue which I saw people having and I could stop looking at! On top of all this, the server or manager even gave me a free Melona ice cream which I paired with the bingsoo after he saw that I was pregnant which I thought was super sweet. I don't live too far from here so I also want to add that even though I have not added a review, I always go to this restaurant to grab a coconut Thai milk tea to go (I am not even a huge Thai tea fan)! For some reason, I love the coconut thai tea from here and always find myself craving it.

Best hidden gem In Elmhurst area and that says a lot given all of the quality Thai food the area…read morehas to offer. This place started off as a cafe, then started offering more and more food. They're always friendly and food is always fresh. Great to see that they continue to expand!
