“Stumbling upon this blue building in Dallas brought a sense of home to this NY girl. Food was so fresh, generous portions, and the coffee as close as it gets to a NY cafe. Top it w/ excellent service!“

“This little joint has been an East Dallas treasure for some time. When you think of mom's home made breakfast. Best describes Gold Rush, from the fluffiest pancakes which IMHO is their clame to fame. I might order a tradional fried egg and bacon breakfast, but bet your bottom dollar it's coming with a short stack of pancakes. As you imagine the tastiest ham slice. remember that they do lunch. fall apart pot roast, hamburgers will not disappoint, chicken fried steak, why not have an omelet for brunch, they'll do it just right. It's not a big place in any way. You get there and you see an empty table go ahead and seat yourself. if there's a short line. you might have to stand between 5 and 8 minutes but everyone in line is cordial. when guests leave their table, grab it, even if it hasn't been cleared off very shortly someone will come by a cleaned your table. while you wait hopefully a member of staff already given you a menu. Be ready when someone takes your order. and the place can be hopping. Give it a shot, I'm sure you will find your visit enjoyable and the food done right.“

“It was amazing!! From the shish kabob to the hummus to the rice and fried cauliflower and lamb meatball and even the baklava with ice cream suggested by our waitress, we fell in love with a new authentic Turkish restaurant! The service was great and we even met a wonderful family having a birthday. The atmosphere was perfect! I cannot wait to go back!!! We also had Turkish coffee and a cappuccino!“

“Great amazing atmosphere! We even had a man come from the kitchen named Kevin come from the kitchen to personally explain each dish to me and my son in detail, which I could not have appreciated more. Not to mention I suppose he assisted in cooking these amazing dishes. I would highly recommend this place! Great service but even greater atmosphere!“

“highly recommend if you're craving delicious French crêpes !“

“We’ve been coming here for years. Just a sweet group of people that work at the cafe. And the coffees are perfect every time.“

“Afternoon tea at NM Cafe in Neiman Marcus at Northpark Center was very nice. The service from Sharon was amazing and the teas were delicious. The sandwiches were good, although a bit under seasoned. The chocolate croissant was delicious but the scones were very small although the real clotted cream was nice. The sweets we not bad but there were too many macarons which were not to our liking. Overall, I give it a 4.5/5“

“I had a great experience at La La Land in Addison, thanks to Jaden! It was my first time visiting, and I wasn’t familiar with the menu at all. Jaden took the time to walk me through the options, answered all of my questions, and made thoughtful recommendations based on what I was looking for.

His customer service was exceptional—friendly, patient, and genuinely welcoming. He made what could have been an overwhelming first visit feel easy and enjoyable. Thanks to his recommendations, I found something I really loved, and I’ll definitely be back. If you’re new to La La Land, I highly recommend asking for Jaden!“

“I’ve been coming here for 40 years and everything is always the same. Relaxing, many loyal customers and of course Nancy and Louis have it always working and everyone feels special. With that said, the food is fantastic“

“Great good, great atmosphere...will be back“

“Food and coffee was fantastic. My mom had the vegan tacos and said they were delicious. Vegan sausage was really good. I had the sourdough toast and local jam - really good. Do not pass this up! I had the Goldie and added a shot of espresso- literal perfection! Only downside- sitting outside can be hot and the flies were aggressive. Ask for a table fan! Wait staff was accommodating!“

“Our group came from Wichita, KS to tour Bonton today. We were amazed at the community, at the forward thinking, the creative programming, the inclusion of the neighborhood, the positive energy, the love of the staff, and the hope for the future. We are going home inspired!“

“Drip Coffee Zindabad! They were open when we walked by at 6:45 am while the competition across the street was closed! Who ever heard of a coffee shop not opening by 6 am at the latest? Even better, Drip offers delicious little breakfast soft tacos with excellent condiments. An all-around winner!“

“The match and coffee are just as good as the service. It was my first time there so I was nervous but Chyna helped me and assured me I could take my time and even helped me choose which drink the get. I ended up getting the strawberry fields and a regular vanilla latte. Thanks Chyna and La La!!! I will be back.“

It's a small, intimate cafe with great food and service. And the chocolate selection is unbeatable. Love this place for its food and its vibe. Make it your place too. It's special.“

“This was an amazing experience! The barista was wonderful (wish I’d gotten his name). He was patient while I made my decision and offered great advice on a selection. The coffee, while just black, was amazing in flavor. To my surprise they offer free ice water in both still and sparkling and copper cups to boot! The decor is a fun, shabby-chic and the vibe is welcoming, warm and friendly. I can’t wait to go back next time I’m in town!“

Their team served our guests for the entirety of our reception and kept the energy up on our dance floor! Jennifer and her team even upgraded our cart at no extra cost. I highly recommend Terra a Taza for any event with coffee lovers!“

“Everyday we got a chance to eat here it was a great experience. Top to bottom from the head chef to staff they were engaging & explained all the daily food options. Not to mention to food was excellent. Unfortunately we didn't get to try it longer as my father passed away on hospice. We're holding my father's memorial service on location & are going to use them for the food afterwards. Thank you for everything!“

“City Cafe feels like the kind of place you go to when you want food that tastes like effort, not just hype. The atmosphere is nice--clean, cozy, friendly--and they always make you feel welcome. It's not flashy, but it's exactly what I look for in a lunch spot: solid food, good service, and a place you'd want to go back to without thinking too hard.“

“There are two ladies: the heavy-set one speaks English not too bad. I believe this is a quaint little hidden way type of shop that is cute. Kaffeine Shop are mostly for people who are inside the businesses in the building if they want to grab a bite.

At 7:00 A. M. when they open, a lot of items, especially lots of the coffee type items, are sold out, and you're not able to get anything. So arrive early enough to grab the delicious items
There's a screen that you can log in and basically order your meal and please by all means put your phone number in so you can get your receipts emailed or text to you, if I'm not mistaken. I did not do it on time, so I lost the receipt that was supposed to be given to me because that's the only way.

They had type of like a 40s kind of Jazzy Ambience there was one seat that you can sit down for on the inside on the outside of it there's a little quiet sitting area of tables and booths that you can sit in and do your work and there is Wi-Fi there.

There is security walking around, so if you're not supposed to be there, don't be surprised if they actually walk up to you and may ask you what you are looking for.

This is for people who are working there, and it's not an area to roam around... you get something to eat, and you probably can look around and see what types of businesses there are.

I saw everything from photography to I guess getting taxes done?“

“Simply Amazing!! I was craving breakfast but the time was 11:30 exactly and I did not know the breakfast hours here as this was my first visit. I asked the sweet lady who greeted me when I came in if I could still get breakfast and she told me yes. I ordered 2 eggs over eazy, 2 strips of bacon, 1 bisquit w/gravy and hasbrowns for take out. Just a simple breakfast. I got back to my office and started to eat and was amazed at how great this simple breakfast tasted. This is my new go to Cafe. Great Food. Great Friendly Service and an Amazing View as well. Give this little spot a try, you'll be glad that you did.“
