Excellent coffee and food!

When I went it was during a very busy time and there was only two people running the shop. But I have to say the food hair was pretty terrific. If you're looking for a reasonably priced flavor packed meal, I would stop here. I don't think you could really go wrong with any of the meals here to be honest. Chutney was flavorful, the Masala Dolsa was crispy but with some fluff and packed with onions (which was a lovely surprise) and it honestly made me regret not ordering two plates.

Absolutely phenomenal flavors in every dish I've tried (which is most of them). The cafe is routinely packed to the brim and for good reason. Eating under the outdoor covered area is ideal for a nice relaxing cafe experience with friends or even just for a quick bite.

Great place to hang out and study! Delicious food and drinks. Only complaint is that the food can be pricy but it is in line with the prices around downtown Ventura.

Very trendy Indian fusion place in downtown. They have so many varieties of latte, and the fusion of dosas and idli’s were so good. Definitely check it out if you are here. Tried their masala dosa, filter coffee felt like home. Will be coming back.

Delicious food. Gluten free options. Cappuccino was amazing.

Tried this place out due to the high ratings on Yelp. My besties and I thoroughly enjoyed our vanilla oat lattes (iced and hot were both wins). The cashier recommended the breakfast sandwich as it is the most popular item. The avocado toast with bacon was a solid choice. Nothing new about it but it was good. The breakfast sandwich was lackluster. The bagel was okay, the egg was a smidge overcooked and over flavored. I will say the whole place is gorgeous and well designed. Lots of seating inside and outside

This place is fire! We just moved from NYC and have been searching for some excellent food spots that remind us of the city. This is definitely one of them. I’ll probably be here for breakfast or lunch at least twice a month.

Tried this place today! Delicious! It's South Indian food. The service was great. It's a small cafe. Very clean , plenty of seating. I wasn't sure what some of the dishes were but the girl at the counter very nicely answers our questions and explained the meals. I had the gun powder dolsa.. spicy.. it's like a crepe.. then they give you the fillings on the side. The spices are so so delicious. My wife got a paneer dolsa with two eggs. Very filling and delicious. We also got an order of samosas. Delicious! To drink my wife had a Rose Latte, not over powering, very good. I had a green ice tea. All the food is made fresh from scratch. Oh don't forget to try their pastries if there's any left. Try this place.. something new..

As a downtown resident, I've been wanting to try this place for a while because I have heard so many great things. It's a very cute, clean, modern cafe with an airy feel. Counter person was very friendly and gave good recommendations. I sat outside to people watch which was a good play since there's a lot to see downtown (good and bad). I got an iced sea salt caramel latte, ricotta cake and the chicken sandwich. Latte was delicious and not overly sweet. The ricotta cake was INSANELY delicious! You could see the bits of vanilla bean specs within each bite; so flavorful, moist... my latte and the cake made the perfect couple. Exactly what I was wanting on my cheat day. I would even buy a whole cake for an event, it was *that* good. The chicken sandwich was excellent EXCEPT they absolutely should not pound the chicken flat for cooking. It's served on a fluffy brioche bun with a heaping amount of coleslaw (which was super flavorful and delicious). The chicken is so thin that it gets lost in what would otherwise be a killer sando. The chutney that they serve on the side is excellent and I disgustingly licked the cup clean in front of passerby's with zero shame. I would definitely come back to try some other menu items. As I was looking at other people's food it all looked very unique and delicious. I'm super excited about this awesome addition to downtown Ventura. Support small business! This place is quite a gem :)

The food here is delicious - definitely a place for a small bite than for a full lunch. I recommend the samosas! The iced kaapi was also refreshing.
