This was such a a disappointment. The place wasn't very busy and our 2 sandwich, 2 ramen order ($80) took 30 min. Sandwichs we're dry (ckn. pesto and veg supreme), ramen bland. Also lots of dirty plates lying around everywhere. Our first meal in Carmel Sucked. I complained and was refunded the price of 1 sandwich. Avoid this, you're welcome

Cute little cafe food is pretty good. Just a little pricey but with inflation and California maybe that is just the way it

Had the organic steel-cut oatmeal with strawberries and blueberries. Very well prepared on a cold morning. Also had the veggie quiche which was very good as well. Enough for two. Nice outdoor seating which is protected from rain, so our dog was happy too.

Service was great! We had the ham and cheese croissant and apple strudel along with a hot chocolate and house brew coffee. Normally I struggle with the would overpowering my coffee taste but this brew is something else! Highly recommend for coffee lovers and the decorations are so comfortable perfect for some asthenic photos.

chicken rice plate & pesto sandwich was delicious ! however the wrap and other sandwich did not live up to our expectations with lack of seasoning and overall flavor. for those they were not worth the price. the staff taking our order was really friendly though and the ambiance is friendly and clean.

Super yum! Serving a fusion of deli/street food delights of kosher, Italian, Asian favorites. The menu changes serving up weekly specials and more! This café is nestled within a small plaza for shopping and other eateries.

We came here twice while we were in Carmel . . Once for boba which was good but then we came for breakfast and that was REALLY good!! We had the açaí bowl and avocado toast both were really good!!! Mike the owner said they just took over in January and are working on a new menu! We will definitely be back to check out their new menu!

Cute cafe service coffee, tea, sandwiches, and oddly, a few Asian "fusion" noodle and dumpling items on the menu. Fusion is the key word here because the dishes aren't authentic in taste and quality. In fact, the "wonton" in the wonton ramen is most likely frozen. In fact, there's the "fusion", as wonton is Chinese and ramen is Japanese. Anyways, the ramen broth is not ramen tasty. But it's Carmel, so don't expect the real deal."

Spent the day in Carmel and decided to stop by this place for something quick while we waited for our dinner reservation. I got their strawberry smoothie which came out to about $12. The smoothie was good, but nothing special. However, service was quick and the inside of the cafe is pretty nice. It is also located in a very nice spot where you're near other restaurants, bars, and get some shopping done! Would love to try some of their other options!
Their vegetarian ramen is to die for! They can also make it veganVegetarian options: Miso and Tofu ramen

I brought my kids here for some boba tea. It came out cloudy and unlike any boba drink I've ever seen- it was pretty expensive for about $10 drink and then tip. It's an expensive area though, I get it. To keep it 100% though, the kids said it tasted good. I did receive some pretty rude service from the guy who works there. Because I have several customer facing businesses I'm always very friendly and polite to people in service- that attitude wasn't returned even as I thanked him several times. The younger people in this area are so politically charged against people of my background it could have been discrimination- to be fair, it could simply be this server is rude to everybody. I would recommend this spot only as a backup if other area coffee stores are closed.

So disappointed that this long-time favorite has been sold to what is becoming the "chain owners" of what were some of Carmel's best restaurants. The quality/quantity of the food and the wonderful Asian-inspired choices are gone. Such a shame. Additionally, the 3.6% surcharge for using a credit card will prevent us from returning. Accepting credit cards are part of running a business. This owner is ruining what were some of Carmel's best restaurants. I urge others not to support these businesses!
