The rose milk cake is delicious. The iced adeni chai was decent, a little watery

This was good. We had some chai, which was excellent. They serve it over a little flame to keep it warm, which is a nice touch. If you are into tea and in the area, it is worth checking out. Personally, I think is a little better, but this spot is still a solid option if you want to try something different.

Very disappointing coffee. I got an oat milk latte from here and it tastes so bad. Such poor coffee - the brew is clearly under extracted and the barista just steamed and poured the milk straight- just minimum effort. I honestly think that this being the Bay Area and with the availability of good Barista blend oat milk everywhere, there is no excuse for coffee shops to not use them. Especially when they charge exorbitant rates for coffee.

Lovely space serving Yemeni coffee and tea, as well as a variety of Middle Eastern and classic Western sweet treats. There's plenty of seating, and the space is quite cozy, although a bit too dark for my liking to stay in and work for the entire day. I got an iced matcha (wanted to keep it classic and had too much coffee that day) and their baklava. The matcha was solid, although a bit too milky for my taste; we also got it unsweetened but it still tasted quite sweet, which wasn't my favorite. The baklava was also quite tasty, but I didn't love the extra glaze of icing they added on top -- it certainly added to the presentation, but baklava is already so sweet that I wasn't particularly excited to have anything added on.

The service was speedy and friendly, although the barista was chatting on the phone throughout our interaction (and for most of the few hours that I was there). They seemed to be able to balance their conversation while supporting customers perfectly fine, so I didn't particularly have an issue with it, but it wasn't my favorite.

Cute coffee shop. Interesting decor. Friendly service. Price is high for the size of the coffee. I got a small Sanna latte and paid $9. Price point is high for a takeout coffee in a plastic cup.

I had the Jubani coffee and cinnamon roll. The coffee is not strong light spice flavors. I added some sugar and it was delicious. The cinnamon roll was buttery and not overly sweet. It was so delicious. They have other pastries as well as expresso and other specialty coffees. Very chill Cafe. Service as prompt and friendly. Thank you. Will definitely come back.

I tried their hot Sanaa Coffee and it was honestly really good. The flavor was just right — smooth and not too sweet. I also got the baklava and it was super fresh and light, not overly sugary like some places. The service was quick and respectful too. Overall, it was a nice experience and I’d definitely come back again.
