Alem’s Coffee is a great spot for a cozy coffee break. The coffee is rich and well-crafted, and the pastries are fresh and tasty. Service is friendly and welcoming, though it can get busy during peak hours. The vibe is relaxed and comfortable — perfect for a quick pick-me-up or a casual hangout.

Prices at cafe are more expensive than prices listed here on available menu online. When I came and wanted to order a ham sandwich, they were out of ham and some other ingredients. Egg sandwich is not $8 as shown is actually nearly $12 and 6 oz cup of hot chocolate is bit expensive, nearly $5.
More hole in the wall and breakfast based then the average Eritrean/Ethiopian restaurant, so the food caters more to single serving then the large platter. Different experience than many others of similar cuisine but I'll go again

Ordered ful and fit fit. Took only 10 min for the food to cook and arrive. Really homey vibe. Food was delicious - ful particularly good, and the yogurt pairing to fit fit was a soothing cooling touch for the hint of spice.

I left California a few months ago and Alem’s is probably the spot I miss the most. Walking here for delicious coffee or tibs/ful on Sundays was often the highlight of my week. Sweet people, great music. Hope to be back soon
