“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gran Caffe L'Aquila, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, making every bite a delight. The service was prompt and friendly, which added to the overall enjoyment. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a memorable evening. While the prices were a bit on the higher side, the quality of the food and service justified the cost. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience.”

“Loved dropping in here on a Saturday. Very relaxed vibes walking in here, perfect for a relaxed meet up, coffee or quick bite. My wife and I ordered the Ume Plum Tea, Vietnamese Latte, Khang’s Special Banh Mi, Crispy Tofu Banh Mi, and Doenjang Butter Fries. The Ume Plum Tea is so unique, and their Vietnamese Latte is the best I’ve had. Their food portions are big, and will definitely leave you full. Highly recommend this place!”

“Best breakfast out I have had in recent memory. The two eagles burrito was outstanding. We came back the next day for the eggs Benedict. Both meals were perfect. I normally never eat all of the home fries but these were too good. Also such a wonderful owner, so refreshing to go somewhere that feels human not corporate.”

“We had such an amazing experience at The Turkish! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like family. The hospitality was incredible, and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. A very special thank you to Layan and Yunus. They were absolutely wonderful and made my daughter feel so special. That meant more to us than they probably realize. Their kindness, attention, and genuine hospitality made our entire experience unforgettable. The food was amazing, the service was excellent, but the way we were treated is what will keep us coming back. It’s rare to find a place where you truly feel like family. Thank you, Layan and Yunus, for making our visit so special. We will definitely be back!”

“Loved this place since day once. I must’ve had over 100 iced blackberry matcha’s by now. The coffee is one of the best and they’re very flexible. Ron and the team are welcoming and chill. A few yummy pastries, which sell out daily, and they’re always expanding the options. If you’re adventurous, they change fun seasonal drinks, and can be quite unique sometimes. Lots of dogs visit, which is a bonus star!”

“I’ve been getting banh mi from Cafe Cuong for over 15 years, they have the best banh mi in town. However, last time I went in 2025, the young guy at the counter overcharged $5…this is not about the 5 bucks that he try to steal, it’s about even with loyal customers, he’s still trying to to screw over. Really smart running the business..I stop going!”

“Small cafe with 3 small tables (2 chairs per table), came by for a quick brunch. There were 2 employees when we came by Cashier/Barista and the chef. The Cashier/Barista was very nice and the food was pretty simple but good. My one year old toddler loved their Orzo Risotto, unfortunately there was no high chair but we made it work.”

“This is hands down the best hookah lounge I’ve ever been to! The ambiance is absolutely amazing. I love the soft Arabic music playing in the background, which creates such a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. The place is beautiful, classy, spotless, and everyone is so respectful. A special shoutout to Lyes, who provides outstanding customer service! He’s incredibly friendly, attentive, and knows exactly how to prepare the perfect hookah flavors to your liking. He checked on us throughout our visit to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. We felt so relaxed and at ease the entire time. It’s rare to find a place that combines such a beautiful atmosphere with exceptional service. I’m definitely coming back, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a classy, relaxing hookah experience! 10/10! ❤”

“I didn't realize I've never left a review but my husband and I have been coming here regularly for over 4 years. There are baristas that have been here for that long and are amazing. They are so so nice. I've been coming here with my newborn and now she'll be four and they truly embody the concept of a third space for everyone including rambunctious toddlers. They have never made us feel less welcome for our child being a child and have always made us and our children feel welcome no matter what. The coffee/barista talent speaks for itself, we have definitely been to hundreds, if not thousands, of coffee shops around the world between the two of us and definitely we always compare it to this gem! They have really cool events as well I've been to a couple of poetry nights. I don't drink alcohol but it being open late makes it a great place to have an evening tea or read a book in a different evening atmosphere.”

“My sisters and I decided to stop in for some coffee after brunch. The man in front of us in line wanted a muffin. They were honest and said one felt hard and dry, so they suggested another flavor that wasn’t. That impressed us. Then they answered our questions about best selling latte flavors and what some flavors were. Not only were they informative and gave their personal suggestions, but they were very courteous and kind.”
