The range of seating arrangements makes this my favorite place to get work done when I want to take a break from working from home. My go-to drinks are the hot chocolate and the red velvet lattes! 100/10, highly recommend 😊“

“Enigma Coffee is a true gem! Hands down, the best coffee I’ve ever had — rich, smooth, and full of flavor. Every sip feels like it was made with care and passion.

The shop itself is absolutely beautiful — modern, stylish, and full of light. It’s the kind of place you want to sit and stay awhile. Whether you’re working, meeting a friend, or just treating yourself, the vibe is perfect.

Also love how convenient the parking is — no stress, just park and enjoy. Enigma is now my go-to spot. If you’re a coffee lover, this place is a must. You’ll taste the difference immediately.“

“Great good and employees The food is always good. And so is the Setvice“

“Owner employs his son who violently abused his girlfriend on the job here.. stay safe and do not support.“

“First time trying this for delivery. Our order was done exactly how we asked and super fast too. If you like grilled onion on your burger like i do...hold onto your hat because these were not just grilled but carmelized to perfection. And the butter cake...holy moly...move over cannolis cause you've been replaced with this as my new favorite dessert! I cried tears of gourmet joy while I ate“

“Cool place to get Argentinean goodies... Gaby, the owner, is the best! My family loves her 🥰🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷“

“I stopped by Yagul Cafe and had my first ever Oaxacan latte, it was a very big cup, full of flavor and just the right amount of spice. Such a pleasant surprise! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was incredibly comforting and delicious.

Everyone at the cafe was so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu!“

“It was about time I wrote a review of this amazing hidden gem! We have been coming here for years, and I cannot explain how amazing everything about this place is. We have tried nearly every boba flavor on the menu & not one has disappointed til today! We have even tried flavors we thought we would not like and we ended up loving. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I wish there was more than 5 stars to rate because this business definitely deserves it. Customer service, quality food and drinks, amazing people! Chicken snacks are sooo delicious if you are ever near or local and have not given this place a try. Even if you aren’t local the drive is definitely worth it 💯💕 Super nice and amazing human beings at this shop that definitely serve the best Boba in the valley! I always make the drive because this is the only place we buy our delicious boba drinks 🙏🏻♥️
Pictures below include a delicious pineapple coconut smoothie w/ lychee and boba.
A grapefruit smoothie w/ boba & a strawberry smoothie! 🥰🙏🏻 & cannot forget to order the chicken snack!“

“ube ,mango and guava roll is good“

“The Shadow is my favorite superhero and now my favorite latte. The tots are terrific as well as the spinach dip. The staff are warm and friendly. And I found a super cool new Sherlock Holmes game. And they even have live entertainment. Come for the games, stay for the food, and come back for whatever new event they have coming up. LOVE THIS PLACE“

“We found this cafeteria because it was the only one open after 9pm but we were so happy to discover this hidden gem 💎🩷 we would definitely go back if we have the chance. Coffee was great, the staff were super friendly, the tiramisu was also amazing.“

“My wife and I went to the Grove in Los Angeles last night and we had dinner at "Sogno Toscana," an it was outstanding. It was perfect in every way; great food, great drinks, outstanding and friendly staff, beautiful location, etc. I love Italian food but I can't think of one Italian restaurant that I like, until "Sogno Toscano." The food was outstanding, and there was so much more we saw go by that we can't wait to go back and try. And the drinks were outstanding. I love martini's and they served the best martini I've ever had. Giacomo was our server and took great care of us. He's from Italy and "Sogno Toscana" brought him to America when they opened their New York restaurant, and now he's in LA for this new restaurant. Although very busy, the entire staff were very fun to be around, and most of them are Italian which is also great.“

“Great new neighborhood spot! The food is healthy and delicious. Lots of variety on the menu so everyone should have a few excellent choices!“

“it was exactly what we were looking for and definitely will be back! Delicious fresh thoughtful food, something for everyone. As a vegetarian I was delighted at the options. I had the roasted cauliflower and yam salad and it was scrumptious. Not to mention they have outdoor seating in the shade which is lovely and they welcomed my doggies with a bowl of water and chunks of chicken! thanks!“

“OMG This restaurant is a rare find!! The food, the service and the atmosphere are amazing! We had a shrimp wrap and chicken breast panini that were filled with so much more large shrimp and chicken breast than I’ve seen at any restaurant in LA! The baklava dessert was excellent. And the coffee was really delicious and served in unique coffee cups. The staff were super friendly and just the perfect amount of attentiveness. And the atmosphere was absolutely unique with greenery on the ceiling throughout with skylights interspersed. We will definitely make this a frequent restaurant stop!“

“The drinks are so thoughtfully crafted and their potato chips are done fresh! The worker there was kind enough to offer me a reccomendation and she was incredibly understanding. I'll definitely be going again for that drink and those potato chips!“

“Very friendly group there. They had information available about all the cats and you could tell they loved where they worked. The cats are obviously well cared for and the facility is well maintained. I was impressed with the entire experience and will definitely be back.“

“In one word - WOW!!
Super tasty, amazing atmosphere, great prices, amazing and warm service! Everyone is super nice and welcoming.
Food was delicious!!!
We will definitely be back for more!
If you don’t visit you are definitely missing a one of a kind experience!!“

“Came here - it's great cafe and I see what the hype is about/why ppl rated it highly! It's a community cafe that feels like a nice purposeful place inside - the first time you visit, they'll let you have a coffee/drink on the house and then after that, you pay what you feel your drink and bill should be. They offer additional seasonal activities like art classes, creative things to do in this space - would def love to support it more and the coffee is great here! I got their seasonal/monthly latte: when harry met salty. Very good coffee! Hope this place sticks around and ppl support it! Can't wait to come back for another coffee or tea drink! If you go during prime time, there's a long line.“

“Tastes great, not expensive, good service“

“They have the most amazing soups! Healthy and delicious! Plus they have amazing customer service!“

“The food was great and the service was excellent! Will definitely be back.“

“Love the atmosphere, great place to try authentic Turkish dishes ( İskender , dolma , mercimek çorba, Lahmacun) 😋😋😋🇹🇷🧿“

“Double edge coin. Hippies then conservatives in the same area. But you get a certain vibe from the area.“

“excellent salad. thank you ben“

“Muy rico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“I have been looking for the best gluten free bagels for years. Finally found it! Thank you Modern Bagel!“

“Garcia brothers Cafe is absolutely amazing. The staff is very attentive. The food is killer. The atmosphere, ambiance is amazing. Absolutely my favorite Cafe.“

“Love this place. The drinks are amazing. I've yet to try the pastries though.

The staff have always been very friendly. A small shop with intriguing photos of the Valley in the past on the wall.

They roast their own beans in the morning right in the front of the shop.“

“The nicest people And the best boba on earth“

“Great pricy place for breakfast, fancy coffee, pastries. Lines out the door but was doable at 9am this morning on Labor Day Monday. Pricy, food was pretty, but taste was so so. Carrot teff cupcake (small) was very cold and hard-but again pretty! $48“

“Oh my gosh, is this my favorite place to get coffee in SM? Yes! So cute, great coffee and smoothies, great avacado and egg salad toasts. Great dog watching and people watching too. Easy to park, but pay the meter, the meter people make a sweep in the morning. Lovely place to sit, lots of shaded places.“

“Lemon Zest consistently delivers delicious food with the convenience of easy app ordering. Their new location on Reseda is beautifully designed, creating a great dining experience. The portions are generous, offering excellent value for the price. My two kids love the beef lule kebab plate—it’s big enough for them to share, with leftovers to spare. As someone who eats mostly vegan, I really appreciate the variety of plant-based options. I’ve tried the falafel plate, falafel wrap, veggie wrap, and several appetizers—all have been flavorful and satisfying. Highly recommend!“

“So awesome great food loved the key lime pie! And the margaritas but all in all just a great fun spot“

“The halo halo is really very tasty.“

“I have been looking for quinoa all over LA. This place serves it and it is very good. The mix has just the right amount of dried sweet cranberries and a few chickpeas. It was perfect. I had a salad with tuna avocado and egg salad. I was able to sub the egg salad for tuna which was very nice of them. They gave me a fork full of a mayonnaise free tuna they had prepared on the way out which again was a great experience. This is the kind of place that you feel cares and you'd want to keep going back to. A+++“

“Good food, great atmosphere,friendly and fast service,I recommend to everyone,👍🏼“

“Avoid coming here on weekends (especially Saturdays and Sundays). The staff is too few, and the number of orders is overwhelming. Expect long wait times, confusion, and a bit of chaos.
The drinks are good, and the quality is consistent — but weekend service is seriously understaffed.
Weekdays are much smoother, so if you want a better experience, come then.“

“The building itself is a work of art. The outdoor landscape is also carefully designed. There are so many exhibits that you need to have enough time to explore. You can also start from the West Pavilion, where you can see more familiar works. This is an art museum worth visiting many times.“

“I have been going to Porto's since the 1980's..the one in Glendale. How elated I was with having them being in Northridge where I live. The food is terrific and the lines go fast due to a tremendous quick system they have. The catering for parties has never let us down and people you have invited that never have experienced Portos are thrilled. The cakes are delicious. What I do miss is not having the individual cake slices for purchase so you can experience the taste. They only have the neapolitan, Parisian, and carrot for slices. I've seen the menu change over time and do miss some of the items.“

“Nice place to chill, nice back patio too.“

“The interior is beautiful and the drinks are great! However, a downside is the baristas they tend to hire have horrible attitudes. They tend to have stank faces and don’t say “please” or “thank you”. I normally don’t care and come here often but lately it’s been getting very rude. So watch out 😂“

“Great food & treats! Saw on Somebody Feed Phil & had to give it a try“

“The whole experience food service is professional and kind“

“One of the most light-filled coffee shops in the Valley with the happiest team of baristas I have ever encountered.

“I love Cravings’ food and the fact that it has so many options to pick from. Their menu has a great variety, it’s quite impressive. Shane and his wife are very friendly and provide a great service. I have ordered meals from daily lunch to catering food for the office and the food is always delicious. I highly recommend this place. Prices are accessible too.“

“This place was really amazing. The weight staff was all great. They helped me out with a small issue. I had with my diabetes by providing me with some orange juice because my blood sugar had gotten low. I truly appreciate him doing that for me. Thank you so much and I will come back again next time I’m in San Diego.“
