“My son and I had a nearby doctor appointment and put "breakfast near me" in the Google search... this delightful café came up... we took a chance and found it not only to be quality and sophisticated food, but a delightful ambience, friendly staff, visually pleasing food, baked goods and decor! even the bathroom was sweet! this is a new staple in my repertoire of breakfast/brunch and coffee spots. I expect to be a regular!“

“I was traveling for my studies, and it was incredible for the time I spent here. Our bartender was Frank, a great person. I won't forget him. This place is perfect for disconnecting and getting a good meal. Without a doubt, I'll be back on my next trip.“

“This cafe is so lovely. I had the pleasure of Desi and Aida assisting me with my order. They made the most delicious soy chai with amazing foam. Their desserts were amazing as well. It was refreshing to be greeted with such positive and friendly energy in New York. I can't wait to come back when I am in the area. Make sure to come to this cafe if you want a lovely experience and great food and drinks!“

“Le Café Louis Vuitton was the perfect way to close out my wedding weekend. I got married on Saturday, and the only reservation I could secure was Sunday dinner for two—so I celebrated with my sister, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a more memorable experience. Hopefully I’ll be back with the hubby soon!

We did the Culinary Journey menu, which started with a beautiful amuse-bouche: a warm soup served with the LV monogram. It was delicious, comforting, and surprisingly homey. It was such an inviting way to begin the meal. Drinks were ok—we got the lychee highball and passion twist.

Our server recommended the ravioli, and I’m so glad we listened. The mushroom and truffle flavors were bold and earthy in the best way (exactly how I like them), making it a standout course. The ceviche was more of a refreshing palate cleanser—light, bright, and tasty.

For mains, both the chicken and filet mignon were great. The chicken had an incredible sauce and perfectly crispy skin. The filet mignon was absolutely delicious and cooked beautifully, tender and flavorful throughout.

The complimentary sides truly stole the show. I would order the broccolini with its subtle hint of heat and the mashed potatoes again and again—they were SO good and easily some of the best parts of the meal.

Dessert was indulgent. The chocolate entremet was rich but not overly sweet, while the hazelnut entremet tasted just like a Ferrero Rocher—decadent, nostalgic, and satisfying.

To make the night even more special, we were surprised with complimentary chocolates and a small vanilla treat in celebration of my wedding, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch.

From the food to the service, everything felt intentional and celebratory. Le Café LV delivered not just an exceptional meal, but a genuinely joyful experience—one I’ll always associate with a very special moment in my life. 💍✨

03/13/26 Update: Returned for dinner and had another 10/10 experience! The service is incredibly consistent and just as attentive as the first time.

We did the Culinary Journey again—Crab Louis, Black Bass, and the Chocolate Monogram to finish. The amuse-bouche and sides were once again a hit and really set the tone for the meal.

For drinks, the Capucine Twist was excellent and I’d definitely recommend it over the Highball.

Always a great experience here. Can’t wait to try breakfast/afternoon tea!“

“Great coffee, great pastries, great man. Sam is the nicest man there is. He invited me to come eat in his own home. His wife's homemade pastries are the best!“

“Vale’s Kafe & Kitchen is a hidden gem in Union City. The atmosphere is cozy and charming, like you’re visiting a friend. The service is professional and attentive. The food … oh so good! Clean and flavorful. The portions are just right, not outrageous. The coffee is also very good. The only setback I see is the entrance is not
accessible. I would suggest a ramp for those customers that have difficulty walking up/down steps. Also hours could be extended, say to include dinner on the weekend (Fri/Sat). Otherwise a must see.“

“We're heading to a show at Rose Theater and wanted a quick bite and a glass of wine. Tartinery was perfect! They seated us in a reasonable time, no reservation needed and the food was delicious. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. The wine French and yummy. Highly recommend!“

“Really happy to find that place! Great real coffee and very friendly staff.“

“Wonderful, caring staff(Grand Central Station)“

“Awesome design! Friendly atmosphere! BUREKASIM!“

“Benjamin was truly the best of the best. He greeted me with a warm smile and was very patient, even taking my orders with care. He really was the real deal. He served me hot chocolate and a croissant, and he even gave me a cup to enjoy the rest of my chocolate on the go. I’ll definitely come back again because of the top-tier service he provided. Bravo, Tartinery!“

“I read their amazing reviews, I had to add me 2 cents. Definitely try their French toast. Brings back my memories of being a kid, and filling as f...... Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!!“

“I've been to a lot of coffee shops in my life, and this is my favorite. The coffee is good, the service is super fast, and the employees are genuinely nice people.

But what really makes this place special is that it actually feels like a local community spot. There currently are only three people I've ever seen working behind the counter, and it was special to watch them expand from their tiny shop to a larger location.

So many coffee shops feel soulless, but this place is different...You can really tell they care about what they've built here. The design seems so thoughtful – there are these cute cartoon animals on the walls, and Tenz told me they put them there specifically so babies in strollers have something to look at while their parents wait in line. I feel lucky to live near a shop that so much care has been put into!“

“Awesome little spot, would highly recommend. Literally tasted like it was home cooking. The everything bagel with lox was great, but the chicken with rice and beans was my favorite. Chicken was fall off the bone tender and melted in my mouth, with a kick of flavor from house-made salsa verde and some heat for good measure. I was also surprised that such a small place had amazing coffee as well. I only wish I had a bigger appetite that day so I could have had the ruben sandwich! Looking forward to coming again. Yaseen is an amazing owner!“

“Great service, delicious iced coffee and matcha latte!“

“I absolutely loved this place!! I gifted a box of mini croffles to my friend to share with others and she said they tasted amazing. Perfect for my friend’s sweet tooth. I also ordered the injeolmi croffle for myself and this place might be my new fav cafe in New Jersey!!“

“Love Healthy in Dyckman. It’s a gem in the Kingsbridge area where it’s possible to find good quality, healthy food. I particularly love their healthy egg wrap and chai latte. The staff is very sweet, and the place clean. The food is on the pricier side compared to the area, but it does justice to the quality. Highly recommended!“

“support the bzrrio by supporting the local businesses and not the Stsrbuck types“

“If you a looking for something special in Astoria Eli’s cafe should be the first choice for coffee and snacks. Eli’s cafe is very nice, clean and cozy space in astoria. They have a very large variety of coffee. I love their cappuccino with extra shot in it. The owner is very friendly, polite and knowledgeable. When i entered into the cafe i get all the positive vibes from the ambiance. I’m truly impressed by the service and welcoming experience. Thank you and i will definitely come back again.“

“Had a book club meet up with my friends and we definitely enjoyed ourselves. The music was nice but not too loud. The drinks were great, I ordered the milo latter with coffee and was delicious. I want to go back to try the coquito latte! I also had a arepa de yuca with cheese on top it was so good! The staff is awesome! Definitely coming back!“

“Excellent coffee and best cookies in the city! Baristas know what they’re doing, service is quick, and single origin specialty coffee is a bonus!“

“Great coffee and baristas, but the screen free zone downstairs during the day is unnecessary when completely empty on most days. Do a time limit if you're concerned about turnover/dining or minimum spend. Would be great to have Turkish coffee back or a pour over option as well.“

“Very glad we found this place. Nice ambiance and delicious food“

“This restaurant was amazing! The person working there was very kind and answered my questions in a way I understood. I got my latte. It was made in a quick fashion. There were nice, clean tables to sit in to enjoy my latte. I highly recommend this location“

“I really like this place, and the one-star reduction is definitely not related to the business or the staff. However, at times the inside becomes quite noisy. During my recent visits, there has been a group of people talking and laughing very loudly, and children running and screaming, which makes it hard to enjoy the space.

I kindly ask the owner to consider taking some measures regarding this, as many people come here to enjoy a quiet coffee, work on their laptops, or simply relax. Unfortunately, because of the noise, I often feel the need to leave early.“

“I Love the Glorious Juice! So refreshing and good for me!!“

“Beautiful array of pastries“

“Daily Provisions consistently serves the best sandwiches in the city. This location, near the museum, is my go to after a run. The chicken Milanese dipped in their tomato soup is my favorite (the olive oil makes the difference), paired with a side of fried potatoes.

If you want something simpler, their tuna melt is pretty decent, though the majority of customers (7 out of 10) opt for the chicken Milanese.

The wait is minimal, ample seating, and this location is noticeably more spacious (and less stuffy) than their Union Square outpost.“

“Albert’s’s has been a go to favorite for many years and Albert is an excellent host. The food never disappoints and the service is always great. I recommend Albert’s HoHokus whole heartedly.“

“We ordered red bean croffle and ear grey tiramisu. The good thing are: the croffle was made fresh and wasn't sweet, so does the tiramisu. The issue wit earl grey tiramisu I don't really get that earl grey that much.

We also ordered yuzu greet tea and matcha latte. They was ok. Not a big place so during weekend not much place to sit. Service the lady on the counter just ignored me while standing there for 5 min until I called out. ....not very friendly experience“

“We are visiting from Miami and stumbled upon this hidden gem. We ordered blueberry pancakes , 2 egg platers and a breakfast sandwich and everything was a 10/10. I got myself a mushroom coffee which was interesting , very good as well. The place is small and homey. The staff was very kind and welcoming. They have a variety of options on the menu & they even have vegan protein powder to make shakes. The hash browns and eggs were delicious and were not greasy at all. Fast service . If you are looking for some good breakfast or quick sandwich / wrap / smoothies check them out .“

“Convenient life, beautiful night scene.“

“Well what started out as "oh let's try this place" as we hunted for a new brunch spot has quickly become a fam and friends fav. This eatery is a hidden gem in the mount Haven section of the BX...who knew!? Love the rustic casual ,chill vibe & the rooftop seating on a summer day is everything. The food... fresh uncomplicated, there are halal vegan& vegetarian options. The chocolate croissant and vegan carrot cake 🥰 My personal favorite is avocado toast with turkey bacon , arugula or the goddess bowl add a great cup of coffee or Chai latte it's all delish!! To the staff are friendly and helpful. We love this eatery so much we just had my friend's son's wedding there, intimate, beautiful. A must try.“

“I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is amazing! You must try the buffalo wings if you love your dishes with a spicy kick and the buffalo cauliflower bites that simply melt in your mouth! The Chef's V Steak is a rich and flavorful you should try it. The service is wonderful and the ambiance is very trendy.“

“Such a pretty place. I felt so welcome here ☺️ the dessert display so yummy. The desserts are delicious. Owner very nice 👌 👍 I would definitely come back. Such a tranquil and serene atmosphere. Parking is very accessible. A hidden gem so worth your trip. Everyone must try this great little cafe.“

“best coffee shop in Manhattan 😊“

“Just checked out Nourish, a new restaurant in the South Bronx, and it exceeded expectations. The decor is beautiful, the music sets the perfect vibe, and the overall ambiance makes it a great spot to unwind or meet up with friends.

Our server, King, was incredibly attentive and made sure everything came out perfectly. We ordered cocktails, sliders, and steak — and every single dish was spot on. The food, drinks, and service all came together for a really great experience.

Definitely a new gem in the South Bronx. Looking forward to going back!“

“I would rather swallow poison than anyone else's cappuccino. Best coffee, vibe of any cafe in Westchester. Staff is super cool and I love the music they play. I am not cool but I feel cool when I'm in there.“

“We passed by this popular store front with lots of people enjoying their treats and decided to get one ourselves.
The waiting line for the kiosk was longer than the delivery of the ice cream itself. The ice cream was fairly creamy and cold. The cone was crunchy as desired.
Matcha taste was a tad bit strong, but good for acquired taste.“

“This is such a great little spot in NYC! We went for breakfast and when we arrived the owner opened the door for us and welcomed us in. We had to wait a moment till they had a table for us, so they gave us menus to look at in the meantime. The food was delicious and very filling. There were quite a number of staff on hand, so we had wonderful service. They were very quick to refill our water and respond to any needs. I would definitely go here again!“

“Io e mia figlia siamo state una settimana a New York e questa è stata la nostra caffetteria per tutta la settimana. Cappuccino ottimo, per non parlare dei dolci, e le focacce baresi 😍😍😍... Lasagna tradizionale buonissima 😉presa 3 volte. Il top qui a New York. Lo consiglio.“

“Since I planned to be in the area for a few hours, I looked online for a decent place to have lunch nearby. I wanted healthy & tasty food and found that based on positive reviews, I decided to give Claire's Kitchen a try.

Well let me tell you, the atmosphere was cute & had a chill & boho vibe. It's small with limited seating. The time of day was around lunchtime so the majority of customers had their orders to go. A couple of them ordered their favorites which was a sign that Claire's Kitchen has repeat customers.

I had the beef empanadas with a side salad and a chocolate chip scone for dessert. The empanadas were not deep fried so their crust was nice & soft; something that I wasn't used to in an empanada. The beef filling was seasoned nicely- the spices gave it a nice kick to it.

The green salad was very fresh and organic. It included mixed greens, cherry tomatoes and red onion .

Last but not least I must say the chocolate chip scone was divine! It did not need butter. I ate it as if it was like a big ole chocolate chip cookie-the whole thing in one sitting! In the past I found the texture scones to be dry and boring. Not this one! It was really good and fun to eat. I would definitely buy this again. This was a great substitute for the gluten-free chocolate cake that she ran out of :/

So when you are in the mood for tasty and healthy food and you happen to be in the neighborhood ,stop by Claire's Kitchen and treat yourself to a meal made with love.“

“Highly recommend their drinks, so far I’ve tried their vanilla latte & rose matcha and they didn’t miss.
For food, my fav would be the eggcelent avo toast & it’s really filling and tastes amazing.
The people are very kind & courteous. Whole in the wall!! Wish their space expands!!“

“The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. My juice was amazing and I topped it off with a veggie patty. I will definitely be back!“

“A nice cozy place to relax and enjoy breakfast or lunch!“

“Came here by accident as my husband and I were about to goto Hmart right across the street and boy did we find a hidden gem! It’s funny because we were craving a sandwich and was about to shop for the ingredients to make at home and it was just meant to be!

We ordered a turkey cold cut sandwich and a chicken cutlet sandwich with a large coffee to share. The sandwiches were off the hook!!! The bread itself was so good and it just blew our expectations! It was so good that we had to order another breakfast sandwich to try and even that was really good. The place is very cozy and the ambience was just perfect. Prices are very reasonable for the tasty and fresh sandwiches they make. They did a great job with everything! Def highly recommend this place as I know we will be returning more often.“
