Nice spot to get some work done
I went twice in one day while in the neighborhood visiting a friend. She lives nearby and recommended it, so I went for lunch. The dirty chai was fantastic! I went back around 8pm for a drink and a late dinner and the chicken sandwich with the side salad was AMAZING! I absolutely LOVED the way the shredded chicken was seasoned! It was perfection, this picture doesn’t do it justice!

I stopped by because I was craving something healthy while I did laundry up the block, and I have no regrets. Upon entering staff was super nice & greeted me, took my order as soon as they could & suggested I tried a chicken puff pasty, which was delicious. I ordered the strawberry shake & it was phenomenal. You can really taste those dates in there. Although I’m not vegan I do plan to stop by again to try an actual entree. Thank you Lakou Cafe for your great service & yummy...read full review
