“Yesterday, I discovered a hidden treasure in San Dimas - Sweet Savory Cafe. This cafe is known for its delicious cookies that sell out quickly. They offer a variety of international flavors, including Cuban sandwiches, salads, soups, freshly made bread, empanadas, and other bakery items. Some items are not listed on the menu, so you can ask for the Chef's Daily Special. I always look for clean and relaxing cafes where my family can eat, or I can simply sit and enjoy a book. My experience at Sweet Savory Cafe surpassed my experiences at other cafes in Pasadena, Claremont, and Upland. I arrived early and enjoyed warm cookies and bread, which were absolutely delicious. I ordered various items including coffee, soup, breakfast, and bakery items. Despite not being a coffee drinker, I found the coffee to be delicious and memorable. I also tried their Healthy Breakfast Burrito with added bacon, which was customizable and very filling. The Lentil soup had an amazing aroma and taste. I can't believe I didn't know about this cafe before, especially since I work in the city! For those new to the cafe, you can order through Uber Eats, Grubhub, Postmates, and DoorDash. Visit their website at SweetSavoryCafe.com or call them at 909-305-9738. Their menu includes breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, avocado toasts, old fashioned oatmeal, and build-your-own scramblers. For lunch and dinner, they offer sandwiches, Paninis, burritos, Cuban sandwiches, veggie sandwiches, wraps, salads, combos, kids' menu, bagels, and more. They even have Keto-friendly San Dimas Barbershop Tacos! There is parking available in the front and back, and plenty of seating inside and outside. If you have a large party, they can accommodate you by pushing tables together. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it a wonderful place to read a book or enjoy a meal with family. They also offer freshly made orange juice, and all their sandwiches are made with their own bread. I tried a new flavor of Sweet & Savory bread and found it to be very delicious. I added cream cheese to it yesterday and tried it with butter today. This is definitely my new go-to place for food. I appreciate the cleanliness of the cafe and the fact that it's open early on for breakfast including Saturday and Sunday. I was even able to order all these items on a Saturday at 7AM. Thank you to the owner, Haydee, and her family for providing such a great first experience. I'm now a loyal customer!“

“Nice cafe, Portions are huge, Great service“

“This place is a must stop if you are within an hour’s drive. Fire Bunny is sweet milk drink with creme brûlée topping. And Thai iced tea soft serve served with fresh hot boba?! Yes please!“

“Friendly service. Great coffee and delicious pastry. My 1st time here, I'll be back.“

“Got the chicken katsu curry here. The curry here is pretty close to perfection for me. Of course it’s down to preference, but the consistency was spot on and the flavor was amazing and had a bit of fruitiness to it and it had little chunks of carrot and potato in it. Chicken went well with the curry, was tender, and had good breading. Absolute gem.“

“Flo’s is well worth going out of your way for!! From the food, to the staff….it’s all GREAT! They have classic “no frills” diner food that is made with tons of love. The biscuits n gravy over potatoes with their house salsa….mind blowing! I’ve never had a bad meal here. Enjoy!!!!“

“See Yelp review. I plan on going back as much as possible!“

“We found Wake Coffee completely by accident, and we're so glad we decided to stop.

The drinks were fantastic—creative, flavorful, and made with care. We especially loved the unique specialty toppings that made each drink feel a little extra special. The real standout, though, was the warm oatmeal raisin cookie. It was, without question, the best oatmeal raisin cookie we've ever had—soft, fresh, perfectly spiced, and absolutely delicious.
The shop has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick. If you're passing through the area, don't hesitate to stop in. We'll definitely be making this a regular stop whenever we're nearby!“

“best chow mein ive ever have and good service 👍 10/10“

“Palermo Bakery has everything you need to feel like you are in Italy! From the welcoming staff the moment you walk through the door, to the decor, to the EXTENSIVE bakery items (that are beyond delicious!), to the pizza, to the coffee, there is truly not a bad choice on the menu! They even have a window to the kitchen so you (or your kids) can watch the magic happen in the kitchen. The first time I went there I was reminded of my Dad and my time in Palermo. They are also very COVID safe in case you are worried about venturing out and about. I would recommend the bakery to anyone needing a slice of Italy in Southern California! ❤️🇮🇹💚“

“This place was so great, I ended up getting three drinks tonight. Favorite was definitely their house coffee, hazelnut flavor. Customer service was great too. I really liked the music and ambiance there. I'll definitely be back soon.“

“WOW!! I am beyond impressed. Everything here is absolutely amazing. I love that they have the macros so I can easily track my calories and protein. Also the owner is exceptionally friendly and helpful. I will be back again and again to try everything. ✨🔥“

“One of our favorite spots to have breakfast. Good family atmosphere and excellent service. The owners one is the cook and the waitress is the wife. Love these small type businesses were you get quality and personal attention. Lizzy call you by name, and 99 percent of the tome she already knows your order.“

“Wonderful boba tea! Delicious food as well! :)“

“Nice teas also great beverages“

“Had lunch today at RKR (Restaurant at Kellogg Ranch after seeing the article in the Daily Bulletin. The lovely Mrs. C and I both had the hangar steak with roasted brussels sprouts and fries. I opted to have the fries upgraded to the truffle parmesan version. As with our previous visit, the food was excellent. The brussels sprouts were roasted with a great char and were tender instead of mushy or overly crispy. The parmesan truffle fries had finely shredded chesses and flecks of truffle evenly coating the fries. The last time I had truffle fries in a restaurant they had the parmesan but with a drizzle of truffle oil. This was a very pleasant surprise. The steak was sliced with a light peppercorn sauce which did not overpower the steak but added to it. Of course, the restaurant is a teaching venue with students from the Collins School of Hospitality so service was attentive and excellent. To our meal we each had a glass of a Syrah blend wine and we shared an apple crumble dessert with Fosselman's vanilla ice cream (yummy). The dining room overlooking the hills of Cal Poly with the 57 freeway barely visible in the distance was, as always, part of the appeal of this location. Price for our meal (before tip) was $91. A very good value for the quality of food and experience. I'm sure we'll be back soon.“

“We love Rail Side and have been going there for years. The Arecely’s PB Mocha (I like mine blended) is my favorite along with the wake-up #1 on GF bread. Everyone is so friendly (including the owners who are also rooted in the community) and they have live music on the weekend. Great spot that has so much small town charm.“

“Good respectful environment here the cashier is very polite and patient with our order. I combined the passion fruit tea with peach and black tea, y mira, 👌 it's made perfectly.They have that good matcha here too. It tastes like matcha not too grassy because they add the perfect amount and mix it correctly. The popcorn chicken is a must a tiny bit spicy but my daughter loved it too much she ate everything. Went home and paired those leftoves with some pancakes and syrup. The gift that keeps on giving. The fried chicken wings with, i believe it was thai sauce, were delicious as well. Try this place they add the love here.“

“Everything was so delicious! Pork belly with chilaquiles is such a good idea, it went so well together. The chia pudding was perfectly sweetened and we loved the mango passion fruit iced tea. Will definitely come again. Also the cook came out and asked how we were doing, she was super sweet.“

“awesome halohalo and cozy atmosphere“

“The staff are friendly. The pumpkin smoothie tasted like bananas with spice. It also looks nothing like the pic. Not a fan. I wanted to try more items like the watermelon juice, the energy bites etc but they were out of alot of items.
The mushroom burrata toast was delicious. A Lil heavy on the lemon/citrus flavor. But overall good.
The handmade gourmet granola bar was definitely the shining star today. It was so nice I had to buy it twice. Loved the granola bar. Delicious and nutritious with all the ingredients in it.“

“I absolutely love Seven Leaves Cafe! Every drink I've ever ordered has tasted absolutely amazing, and the service is always quick! The employees are super friendly, welcoming, and make every visit a great experience. The store is always clean and inviting, which I really appreciate.
I especially want to recognize Lakota for her wonderful customer service! She greeted me immediately when I walked in and had such an upbeat, positive personality. It's employees like her who make customers feel welcomed and appreciated.
Great drinks, fast service, and amazing staff! I highly recommend Seven Leaves Cafe and will definitely keep coming back! ❤“

“Absolutely loved my experience at PS I Crepe You! The inside is so pretty and thoughtfully decorated — it has such a cute, aesthetic that makes it feel really welcoming and perfect for grabbing a sweet treat or hanging out for a bit.

One thing to note is that ordering is done entirely through an iPad, which actually made the process easy for my teenager but not for me.

The menu allows customizing everything.

the food was delicious. Everything came out fresh, beautifully presented, and tasted just as good as it looked. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you’re craving crepes or just want to try somewhere with a fun atmosphere!“

“I was seated outside, not much of a view but that's OK. I had the country fried steak, with eggs over easy and biscuits & gravy. The food was delicious. The gravy had sage in it, but not overwhelming. The biscuit was seasoned, very good on its own. I enjoyed the CFS. My bride ordered a sandwhich. I don't recall but she really enjoyed it. I also ordered a side of their signature Chipotle cheddar potatoes. They were absolutely fantastic. I would go back just to have those potatoes. Staff was very efficient and friendly. Great place to enjoy a breakfast.“

“Fresh Kitchen (Drink ur Greens) is probably the only thing I miss about California. their Juice Cleanse's are delicious, I absolutely LOVED their Root 2 and would always have their lemon water in my fridge. If they could ship to the Mesa area of Arizona I'd definitely become a regular customer again.“

“It is a very cute quaint place, amazing ambience, decorated beautifully! Unfortunately I was unable to try anything because they do not accept cash, so I walked in and walked right out, so hopefully I can return and then I'll update my review once I get the opportunity to try it.“

“If you’re looking for a cozy and relaxing spot, I highly recommend **Hide Out by Tea Lane**. It's a wonderful place to unwind with a great selection of teas and a serene atmosphere. Perfect for some quiet time or catching up with friends!“

“This place was great, Crepes and Juice where tasty.“

“Really enjoyed the pork satay here! The presentation was beautiful and everything on the plate looked fresh and appetizing. The pork satay was especially good—tender, juicy, and nicely grilled with a slightly smoky, caramelized flavor. The meat was flavorful without being overly sweet, and the sauce complemented it perfectly.

I also liked how the rice, fresh vegetables, pickles, and crispy shallots balanced out the meal. The portion was satisfying and the whole plate felt thoughtfully put together.

Definitely one of the better pork satay dishes I’ve had. I’d happily order this again!“

“Stopped by 7 Leaves during a recent heatwave while visiting in the area - first - while its still around - make sure you try out their Brazilian Lemonade! It's simple - fresh lime juice, ice and condensed milk - but sooo good. Literally replaced (temporarily since it's a seasonal drink) my favorite House Coffee with Sea Cream.

Anyway, wanted to stop by to pick up some cold drinks and get their gift card pack.

This location is directly on your left as you drive into the shopping center. There's a drive-thru - so you don't have to leave the comfort of your car - but I opted to walk in since I wanted to snap photos of the interior.

Plenty of seating throughout the store (I didn't take one side of tables/chairs because it was fully occupied and I feel weird snapping photos of people without asking them).

Service was awesome. The employee had to check if they still had gift cards left - but was super helpful and pointed out that a gift card either gets the recipient a regular-sized drink with topping, OR a large sized drink no topping.

OH - and another plus - they blast the AC in here - so its the perfect refuge to sip coffee while working on your laptop or reading a book during a relentless heatwave!“

“Wonderful boba tea! Delicious food as well! :)“

“best Indian food in our area highly recommended.“

“First time trying Sul & Beans today with hubby and daughter. I've had shaved ice plenty of times before, but I'd never had it Korean-style! We are definitely coming back because there are so many flavors to try! Service was super quick, and everything was delicious! Big thumbs up!“

“I haven’t been here for a while and had a craving for the Chilaquiles. I knew they added a new Mole salsa so I called to order that to go. I was told they also have a chipotle sauce, so I went with that instead. When I got home, OH MY GOSH!! Those were the best chilaquiles I’ve ever had with the Chipotle sauce. They were so good I’m embarrassed to say I lick the plate clean🥴. And of course the churros were amazing as usual.“

“Best Coffee in town by far!“

“Stopped in for a quick lunch and ended up staying longer than planned because the patio was surprisingly peaceful. I ordered the turkey pesto sandwich, and the pesto had a nice homemade taste not overly oily. The bread was a little denser than I prefer, but the flavors worked well together. Friendly staff and a relaxed vibe make it a solid casual stop.“

“OK, YUM!! I’ve been on a huge hojicha kick lately since the caffeine is usually gentler than matcha. I’ve had bad luck in the past with shops giving me massive servings (37g!) that kept me up all night, so I’m always a bit cautious.

I finally decided to try Smoking Tiger after seeing them all over socal, and I’m so glad I did! I told the staff I’m super caffeine sensitive, and they were incredibly accommodating, offering to make alterations just for me. Love that attention to detail! I'll be a regular from now on!

Also, do yourself a favor and get the corn mochi! it’s absolutely delicious! 🌽“

“This boba place used to be Tea Party Boba and Snacks. Uranus 27 boba tea is a great place to hang and kill time while enjoying your boba. They have multiple charging stations and cute displays. Nice ambiance inside and spacious! They offer snacks to munch too.“

“The staff was very polite and patient, th atmosphere is pretty quiet but also pretty loud(i.e. not enough to be so loud but also not dead quiet). The food was good, though, some foods can use maybe a bit more of this and that. Nonetheless, it was a good experience for me at Panera Bread“

“Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish\. The food was excellent, fresh, flavorful, and everything we ordered was on point\. The service was just as impressive — everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome\.

The hookah was great, the atmosphere was perfect, and you can tell they really care about the overall experience, not just the food\. Honestly, there wasn’t one thing I could complain about\. Great food, great service, great hookah, and a great vibe all around\.

Definitely one of those places you leave already thinking about when you’re coming back\. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place with amazing food, excellent service, and a relaxing atmosphere\. 10/10\.“

“Came here with my family for my little sister's birthday. I got to meet the owner and he was super friendly! We were well taken care of throughout our time here. The bingsoo and taiyaki were top notch! The owner is awesome! Would definitely recommend and we will be back! 5 stars!“

“Good food, good environment and reasonable price 👍👍“

“I had the daily special today: Japanese Chicken Katsu Curry with a side of vegetable egg rolls. It was so good! Their smoothies are also excellent. Very friendly and prompt staff. Thank you!EDIT: this review was written prior to the change in ownership that occurred in 2024.“
