Reviews
The Korean Special weekday set is a really good deal. It comes with tea and a selection of pastries and traditional Korean sweets. Everything was beautifully plated. The berry jelly dessert was especially refreshing.
The Matcha Fromage looked like a piece of art. The outer shell isn’t edible, but the cake itself isn’t overly sweet and has a nice matcha flavor.
The Perilla Hoji Financier was actually my favorite — super fragrant and balanced. The Nuts Yakgwa was sweet and chewy with lots of crushed nuts on the outside.
We also got oat milk lattes (one hot, one iced) and both were surprisingly good.
Great spot for dates or afternoon coffee. I’d recommend going on a weekday for the special set and fewer crowds.
My husband is a total foodie with high standards, and he said the Dubai Chewy Cookie here is the best he’s ever had
We went around 1 PM today and it wasn’t crowded at all, which made the experience even better. The Saturday before last was pretty busy, and we felt a little rushed because of the crowd. But today we were able to relax and truly enjoy everything at our own pace. Highly recommend!
When we walked in, it was packed and very loud. We ordered a strawberry matcha and a latte to go. Surprisingly, the order was ready within a minute. However, when they called my name, it was extremely loud, and I couldn’t even get to the counter because people were crowding the space and trying to leave, it felt like a traffic jam inside. They called my name again just as loudly.
As for the drinks, the strawberry matcha was overwhelmingly sweet, it tasted like it had at least five spoonfuls of sugar. We just eded up throwing it. The latte was okay, nothing special.
After reading some mixed reviews about the desserts, I’m honestly glad we decided to skip them.
There’s a large bar area that takes up a good fraction of the overall space, but much of it is used to prepare drinks and desserts. The actual ordering process takes place through one of two standalone kiosks. Considering how steady the foot traffic and how detail-oriented the workers had to be to make the drinks and desserts, I was surprised at how quickly our order came out.
The desserts are a sight. We snagged a spot close to the kitchen window so we were able to sneak a glance into the painstaking process that went into their signature fromage desserts. They’re like small square landscapes with a sponge base, a whipped cheese-based mousse, and hand-broken black sesame sponges. What I assumed would be style over substance turned out to be a light, airy, well-balanced dessert. We got the matcha fromage, and I appreciated how the sprinkling of matcha powder helped counteract the overall sweetness. For our beverage, we ordered a caramel macchiato, which was a smaller than expected serving but delicious.
Though the vibes are calm and unhurried, this definitely didn’t feel like the sort of cafe where one could linger. With new parties coming through and building up queues that clogged the little standing space in the main room, it didn’t feel right to hang onto a table for too long (and, as my husband noticed, the chairs are too hard to sit for too long without discomfort). Everything on the menu is pretty fancy and made-to-order, and the prices definitely reflect that. Thankfully, there’s an adjoining lot with a few free parking spots to offset the expensive cafe visit (heed the warnings others have left about the tight and steep ramp – it’s hard to angle your car into it and I could see how some would scrape the bottom of their car if they tried to enter or exit at a certain speed).
