"This restaurant is cute and popular with a long line to get in for Saturday brunch. It has a diner-type vibe but still slightly upscale and trendy. The service was good despite it being busy. I got the sunrise bowl with coconut yogurt and it was good but small portion for the price. The turmeric latte (regular) size was generous. They seem to have a very extensive drink and coffee menu. Not the most vegetarian or vegan-friendly place but they have some options. I suppose this is Texas, after all, so that’s to be expected."

"I had a really good experience. We went there for breakfast, and the atmosphere of the café was so calm and elegant. Although there was a lot of crowd at the time, the service was very fast. The food was also delicious. I can recommend this place to everyone!"

"From the outside, Ascension Coffee – White Rock looks sleek, almost too polished, but stepping inside reveals a completely different experience: bright, spotless, and welcoming, with vaulted ceilings and modern communal seating that makes the space both stylish and functional. The Earl Grey Tea Loaf is moist with a subtle glaze — simple, elegant, and well-balanced with the tea’s fragrance. The Apple Galette is flaky and golden, apples holding their texture in a rustic but refined presentation. The Chocolate Croissant shows careful lamination, crisp layers, and a restrained chocolate filling that leans sophisticated rather than overly sweet. Drinks hold the same standard: the latte is smooth and balanced with artful milk texture, while the iced matcha latte is bright, clean, and free from bitterness. Beyond food and drinks, details stand out — chilled bottled water from the fridge offered as courtesy, staff who prepare drinks with care, and a space that feels safe for casual dates, versatile for laptop work, and comfortable enough for family or playdate visits. Despite its polished design, prices remain reasonable, making Ascension feel accessible without losing its sophistication. The overall impression is of a café that values detail and presentation, where both atmosphere and quality exceed what you expect from the outside."

"We arrived 11:30am for lunch, (our first time at Ascension Coffee Cafe on Garland Rd in Casa Linda)...the wait was 15-20 minutes...when we asked if we needed a reservation, the Host said to make it the day before to assure seating!...... Sooo, we left and regrouped our lunch plans! ... Since we didnt eat there this particular day, I gave this location a 3-Star anyway... The ambience is a former chapel, close to White Rock Medical Center, redesigned into a beautiful Coffee Cafe!...It is popular and very elegant!...Will try again (with a reservation) and review their food choices at that time...Stay tuned!"

"Ascension is one of my go-to brunch spots in Dallas — relaxed, stylish, and consistently delicious. Their migas are absolutely packed with flavor — cheesy, spicy, and perfectly satisfying without feeling too heavy. And if you’re into brunch cocktails, their espresso martinis are hands down my favorite in the city — smooth, bold, and just the right amount of sweetness to kick off the weekend. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or lingering with friends, Ascension nails that perfect brunch vibe every time."
