Amazing Vietnamese coffee, their French menu was not that great. Had steak au poivre come raw and then way overcooked to the point it was grey. They did try to fix it but at that point was kinda turned off of the food. I hear the sandwiches are better

I ordered the Beef Bourguignon and it was phenomenal. The carrots and potatoes melted in your mouth, the beef and broth was so rich and sublime. My boyfriend got the Steak Au Poivre the mashed potatoes were delicious the steak had a lovely char on the outside while maintaining that blue to rare inside. The peppercorn sause was masterful overall 10/10. For drinks we got the Pandan milk tea also fantastic and I don’t even like pandan. I got the strawberry lemonade which was more sweet than tart but still delightful. 10/10 my favorite weekend brunch spot. The French cuisine is only Friday-Sunday so it’s hard to get spoiled on delicious food.

Been going here for years as a local. Amazing vibes and tasty food. Seriously some of the best brunch in town! I recommend the egg bahn mi, garlic steak, or Saigon brunch!! And of course the Cafe Sua. This is also a great spot for playing board games or doing school work as the tables are big.

Absolutely the best coffee and customer service in town! Beautiful interior!!Every drink has its own unique flavor, and the variety is amazing. Definitely a must-stop spot when you’re nearby!

This place is amazing; the vibes, the coffee, everything. I tried the cafe sua and wow… it tastes just like what you’d get in Vietnam. Super rich and creamy, but still has that strong coffee kick. You can tell they really care about keeping it authentic.
The café itself is super cozy and has such a cool, cultural feel — like a little slice of Saigon right here. Definitely coming back (probably way too often 😅). If you’re into Vietnamese coffee, you have to check this place out

First off, really good coffee! We had a latte, a matcha latte and a machiatto. All three were just right. We had a croissant, a croquant and a muffin. Simple choices and so good. If I lived here I'd come back to try every single menu item.
If the food or coffee doesn't tempt you, the place is so cute. Just come to enjoy the atmosphere. There was live music playing at a level you could appreciate but still talk at the table without having to shout.
I hope locals keep this place prosperous so I can enjoy it again at a future travel date!

Beautiful cafe! My husband and I got the pandan lattes two days in a row, we were craving it lol. They are a little pricey, but worth it!

*for reference, we got two 14 oz. lattes for about $16*

I visited Corpus Christi with my family for a vacation and stumbled upon this place when looking for brunch spots. I ordered the Ube Taro Latte, and we split the Beef Banh Mi. Their sandwiches are large, with crisp bread and well marinated meat. It was delicious! I loved my drink and plan to return whenever possible.

Cool place with fun nicknacks! They have an in house roaster for their beans which is very unique, if you catch them at the right time you can see them roasting their beans very neat :33
I got the blueberry pomegranate smoothie and it’s very yummy :D <3

People are great down to earth with very knowledgeable of what they are serving, it has a great ambience and food was great

Always love visiting when I am in town, great atmosphere and amazing coffee. Can't recommend enough!

Ordered an ube latte one morning this week and asked for a double shot, extra hot, and it came out tasting like sugar and it was lukewarm. I could not even taste the caffeine. The owner could smile more too and be a bit more friendly. I went in again this morning and the young girl just approached the register without a greeting or asking what she can get for me? Oh, I’m sorry are you ready for my order?! Like come on people, is it going to hurt you just a little to greet your customers and smile. I will never understand. Very pricey coffee too.
