K wave. You must come here one time.Cafe's atmosphere is comfortable and it made me calm down.It is a good place to read books or do something with your laptop.I strongly recommend you to visit here.I found a good place to enjoy as like I had enjoyed in South Korea.Enjoy other food, especially Bing-su (snowlike ice powder with any toppings)I should try it next time.

Love the avocado toast and cafe latte. Always great service and family owned. They are closed on Tuesdays though

The food is pretty good, HOWEVER the service is extremely BAD! There is a Asian lady looks like 30 years old is extremely rude and have no manners. We paid 20% tips and she was yelling at us at the end to put the dishes away by our selves with the command of tone. Very rude and disrespectful to clients, won’t come back again if the business owner cannot find someone who is polite and friendly to work there.

Stopped by to grab a coffee and this place did not disappoint! I typically drink sugary coffee and I really enjoyed the Sapienna (I got mine iced). It has a little bit of sweetness to it, not too much, and the cheese cream that topped the drink added a nice salty touch. You can even combine different flavors of syrup in your drink, which is a great way to customize your drink.Our barista, Anthony, was super friendly, explained the menu well, and gave great recommendations. In addition, there are several small tables in indoors for you to enjoy your coffee or food and one large table that could be great for a larger group.The ambiance is very chill inside! This looks like a great place to do some work or just relax. The record player and several records that you can sift through are a cool touch as well.

Stopped here after a wedding ceremony to get our quick caffeine fix and it was exactly what we needed! After some recommendations from Anthony (thanks so much for your friendly service!), I decided to go with the Iced Latte (vanilla and lavender syrup) and it was super tasty! The ambience is very nice to study and have a chat too. They played jazz music and there were lots of seating options!

Best cafe in this area! Go to for coffee and avocado toast, you have to try the taiyaki! Nicest owners and workers, such a great place to sit and relax. Couldn't recommend to family and friends enough.

Cafe Sapientia is awesome! We have been here several times to try their snow créme, and we’ve always been very happy. We’ve had Korean shaved ice before, in South Korea, Thailand, and elsewhere, and this is still one of the best we’ve had - tastes exactly like traditional Korean shaved ice. You get a huge portion (big enough to share), everything is fresh, sweet, and flavorful, and it is presented very nicely! Sometimes they even have seasonal shaved ice flavors (which I have yet to try but I NEED to try the pumpkin one when it’s available ASAP), and our favorites are the strawberry and mango flavors! If you’ve never had Korean shaved ice, it’s really shaved milk instead of shaved ice, so it’s much sweeter and tastes way better as a dessert than Hawaiian shaved ice or a snow cone. Moral of the story: check this place out because you won’t be disappointed!!

Cute little coffee shop with amazing coffee and our favorite Avocado toast. I like coming here to treat my daughters.

An absolute gem of a neighborhood spot, definitely heavy with local regulars most of the time, and busy. We love the coffee selection and always get the Avocado Toast with Prosciutto, assorted Taiyaki, and Mango Snow Cream to go when we can. You can't really go wrong with the menu here.
