We ordered 2 Acacado toasts and eggs and 2 coffees for a total of 65 dollars. I was expecting a different breakfast for this price, at least it should not have been served with a simple bread bought from the super market. Latte was like just milk, I had to buy an extra shot. I will not choose this place again.

The food is really overpriced for this size and quality ($70 for this and two coffees). Croissant and bread taste like they’re not fresh, very dry and lack in taste. Two tiny pieces of salmon per plate…
Coffee is just bad, it tastes so watery and sweet. Not worth its price.
On other photo reviews there’s a big variety of backed goods, but today they have just few options.
Local cheesecake (lviv cheesecake I guess) was nice but nothing special too
Employees were listening to strange music. It sounded like someone’s cloud rap demo? Ruined the atmosphere
I recommend you to trust all recent reviews

Went there for breakfast. The food was actually decent, but kind of expensive for what you get.
I will say the service was something I have never seen in my life (having both eaten out plenty, and have worked in the service industry for years). It took us 15 minutes to get forks and knives to eat after receiving our food. I had to ask three employees for silverware. The third employee, brought us a single fork, then got annoyed with us after we asked for additional forks and knives. As a former server I would not argue with customers in this situation, I would apologize, and do everything in my power to get silverware to customers as soon as possible.
The restaurant was also completely quiet when this happened. There was one other occupied table when we were eating there. I would be more forgiving if it was extremely busy, but it wasn’t, it was as quiet as possible.
I can’t imagine this place will be open for long if it can’t solve the basic restaurant management problem of maintaining a supply of clean silverware while the restaurant is completely quiet.

This is a charming cozy café. However, the coffee is watered down and cold. The hot chocolate is a powdered mix. Food take took long to come and was really disappointing. The amount of food and presentation were embarrassing compared to the price. Pancakes were dry and cold. I couldn’t take another bite. I am sorry that the owners of such a nice place don’t put effort with the quality they serve.

horrible expierence. Ordered a coffee and pastry which was $15 and it came after a whole HOUR and me reminding him TWICE after 2 people that came after me got their order. this place either needs an upgrade or to be shutdown completely. The worker not being apologetic had me appalled 0/10

Wandered in just for a double espresso after having been initially impressed with the beautiful decor on the exterior and interior windows. I was soon let down by the lackluster design of the counter, which looks cheap and unfinished. The nearly empty pastry display was a sad sight and I think more could be done to improve the look and feel of this cafe. My espresso was fabulous and came in a nice glass cop which is a nice treat. However, I was not pleased when the barista brought it to my table by itself with no napkin, or sugar, and didn’t even ask if I wanted some. This required me to walk across the cafe to the nearly empty shelf that held the sugars and sweetener. I believe more could be done here to improve the service. Beyond that, I did enjoy the street-facing window seats, and the natural light does add to the ambiance, but I believe that, considering the prices this place charges for everything, there are several cosmetic upgrades that should be made to justify their prices.

Services was great, atmosphere was chill, and food was amazing!
I get the Portuguese chorizo sandwich with fries on the menu and add cheese and eggs (which I definitely think they should incorporate that in their menu🤷🏻♀️) but it was very delicious and will be coming back!

Waited an hour for my food. Then was told they forgot about it.
I love the decor here. It’s cute and charming, and their Pink Dreams drink is my favorite. This was my first time dining here, and I decided to try the seasonal pumpkin French toast.
While the French toast tasted good, the experience overall was disappointing. It took over 20 minutes to arrive, and the presentation was very underwhelming for the $20 price tag. The dish was simple and lacked anything special to justify the cost.
I understand they were understaffed. I only saw two people working, and I think one was the cook. Unfortunately, this seemed to negatively impact the experience for everyone dining there. Many customers were visibly frustrated, and the overall atmosphere felt tense and unhappy.
While I’ll probably return for the drinks, I hope they address these issues to make the dining experience more enjoyable.

Place looks cute, but the food is less than great. Took WAY too long to get our food in an empty cafe. When it did arrive, it was wrong. Apparently, they were out of certain items and didn't make us aware. Service is slow, and I'm not impressed. Sad because it looks so cute on the outside.

Vibes are great, food is pretty good, good vegetarian and gluten free options. But service is very slow and makes a fair number of minor mistakes. It’s like being in a Paris cafe, both good and bad.

Great little cafe! They have the classics, and some pretty unique dishes and drinks. I love the strawberry mocha! Only problem is a couple of times they have forgotten some items in my order, but they are always quick to remedy the issue.

D light is such a cute, cozy spot good for a quick cafe data or for a nice long study session. The staff is extremely friendly, especially Kerri, as she broke down the coffee and food really easy for us. One of our dishes was a little overcooked, so she had another one prepared on the house before it even came out. Extremely hospitable! The coffee is nice and refreshing and the atmosphere is tight but very nice and aesthetic. Large variety of menu options from around the world that are extremely creative. The shakshuka was very flavorful!
