“This is my absolute favorite place to get Lebanese and Armenian food that tastes exactly like my grandma‘s home cooking. I have been coming here for years and can attest to how delicious and fresh everything here is. I have the pleasure of meeting the owner today, Peter, who showed me all around the different aisles and gave me advice on how to prep Everything for it to taste the best. You can just tell that all the food is made with so much love and intention. The prices are so reasonable for the quantity and quality of food that you’re getting. This place is always in my weekly rotation.”

“This is a good coffee spot. Neat interior, friendly staff. Only ever eaten the tater tots, I'll bet they're frozen store-brand tots but they were gas nonetheless, especially with the sauce they serve them with.

Espresso is good. The signature black heart is good also. Most recently I asked the guy taking my order what's better, their signature or the golden latte, and he told me the golden is less sweet and more healthy. I tried it, and indeed, it was real good, and tasted pretty healthy.

9/10 will be coming back. They serve full, like actual meals here too so when I get one of those I'll come back and update to an 8/10 or 10/10.”

“I stopped by this tea place to get my wife a drink since I was already in the plaza this store is in. I found parking just fine but parking can be hard to find depending on when you come. When I walked inside, all the workers greeted me. I look at their menu and called my wife. She said the passionade and fruit tea looked good but I should ask which one they recommend.

The lady working the cashier recommend the passionade so I got a large one and asked for light ice. The place isn't that big inside. They made my order quick and I went to the other side to pick it up. I took it home and my wife loved her drink. It wasn't too sweet or plain and they put light ice like I asked.”
