Actually my first visit to this place was very good customer service and coffee too. The place is Fancy and suitable And I want to say thank you for the excellent customer service.

Don't let the address of the cafe fool you, while it says Spectrum and you may think it is a cafe in the Spectrum mall, it's just across in the nearby Parks apartment community. It is a really cute cafe with a European feel to it. I'm sure children will love it, as well as adults who crave Nutella anything. Their menu offers everything from coffee, hot chocolate, waffles, crepes, chocolate covered fruits and savory items like flat breads and a beef burger. Ordering was easy via a large iPad. The people working there were great too and were quick to give us recommendations and also tips on where to park the next time. Parking is available around the cafe and if that is full, you can park in the visitor spots inside the community's parking garage. On to the food, what can I say, how can anyone complain about Nutella? To mix things up, I ordered their crepe with half Nutella, half Biscoff and with strawberries. A very good decision, I must say. The Biscoff was definitely a good surprise. As if I didn't have enough Nutella, I went ahead and ordered the Nutella hot chocolate. It was interesting in a good way. I fully expected a hot chocolate with a hazelnut flavor, but there's actual Nutella in it. My husband ordered the chicken flatbread and liked it but he was swiping at my sweet treats more often than I liked. Overall, a good experience and I would definitely come back again when I am craving crepes.

went to this cafe at night and it was cold. I asked if they would turn on the outside heaters and they said they will for customers. I paid for food and a drink and asked repeatedly for them to turn on the heaters 4 times and every time with every employee they said they would but then never came back to follow through. Don't promise a service in exchange for money if you won't follow through. Highly disappointed since it is a great location and good vibes but poor mannered teens running the place.

Ashley had amazing customer service everyone was extremely nice and helpful, would 100% recommend the chicken and waffles, waffles are very fluffy and have a hint of vanilla which was amazing the chicken was extremely juicy and the sauce was amazing, The buffalo pizza is personal preference got tired of the buffalo sauce after 2 or 3 slices. The Oreo shake was really good wish they put oreos or crumbs on top of the whip cream but the shake itself was really good amazing restaurant and the experience was very enjoyable due to the staff how attentive and kind they are. Very scenic and lovlely area

Ordered waffle chocolate plate, Americano and three lattes. Chocolate had good flavor and right texture. Fruits were not the good quality, especially kiwi was terrible that had more of a black color (might be due to excessive exposure to cold) I ordered one latte w/ regular milk and two of them with oat milk but there was no sign on the cups other than a check mark for latte. So it was a gamble for people to guess which had what type of milk. Americano was filled 3/4 of the cup and no milk on it (I ordered w/ milk). No self service for milk and half&half either.Definitely not a cafe I’ll come again
Oh wowww the location is GORGEOUS!! Pictures do not do the surrounding justice. I absolutely loved the seating that's available both inside and outside of this darling, cafe. The menu is also unreal and overall, this place reminds me of another in Little Arabia which is a bit of a drive for me so I appreciate that this is close by. I've also been on the hunt for a dessert lounge, especially one that is open late. This one is open until up to 11:00 some nights, which is perfect for late night cravings. There aren't a lot of options around Irvine like this. I am an absolute sucker for all things warm and chocolatey, so they automatically get a good review for that. The diversity on their menu was also surprising to me. I came in on my birthday and really just wanted something sweet, but their savory options looked amazing too. I ended up adding a hot chocolate to my meal, which looked decadent and promising, but did not taste as good as I had hoped. I got cookie butter and Nutella on my waffle and it was soo good. Definitely bring a buddy to share if you are indulging in sweet treats, because I lovee sugar and can handle a pretty good amount, but it was a lot even for me. The chicken and waffles were the most disappointing thing that was ordered. The chicken needs a lot of help. Oh, someone also came around to all the tables and gave everybody free chocolate covered strawberries :) I would absolutely come back to try more flatbreads, drinks, and desserts in the future though! Amazinggg
First time here and the quality from customer service to the food and drinks were amazing. I had the Zaatar and Cheese Flatbread and I wish I had gotten the full size. Half size is definitely good for one person but I can see the full size being shared by two. A little bit too much mint but it was all eaten! I also ordered a dirty chai with oat and a splash of vanilla and it complemented the spices very well. Parking during the day was limited given its location is in a private apartment homes village so be wary. There is seating inside the cafe and outside. There is also the convenience in mobile and kiosk ordering but a cashier is also there to take your order. Their menu offers pastries, savory items, and chocolate covered strawberries! Definitely a lovely cafe with a variety of options from drinks and food to choose from that doesn't feel overwhelming.

This place is AWESOME - a hidden gem in Irvine. I've lived near the spectrum for years now and didn't realize what I was missing until today. I inquired about Cheesecake, and the staff just gave me one for free! We weren't even talking beforehand, he just gave freely out of kindness. It made my day!!!! Will definitely be coming back!!! 10/10

Awful service! Low quality and bad customer service…train these kiddos !when you guys see I mention “dine in” and left tips, don’t serve in paper plate and bring my food at the table instead of leaving it on the counter without saying anything…

this place is so cute! the food is pretty good and the area is so cute. It's inside of an apartment complex area so be aware. parking might be hard to find depending on the time you go. You can order from the kiosk and they give you your food pretty quickly. servers are nice! would def recommend and would want to come again!
