What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Beautifully appointed gourmet grocer / cafe concept. That being said, food was mid at best. I would consider this more of a neighborhood spot in an affluent community. Perfect if you live in the area, but not a place that I would frequent. Nice that they had parking in the back and outdoor seating. Lovely to check out on a sunny day."
"I tried the tiramisu latte, it was a bit on the sweet side with less coffee flavor, but I still enjoyed my visit. As someone who loves European-style coffee shops and small cozy stores, this place was a delight. I heard they’ll be opening a restaurant inside soon with Italian pasta and pizza,excited to come back and try it!"
"super yummy coffee I had! I got the Lizzie tiramisu I think it’s called. it comes with a lady finger on the side omg it’s so so good. baristas and other staff are super friendly and efficient. it’s so close to where I live I’ve gone here multiple times. Oh and their sandwiches are amazing too!"
"I visited after 6 pm, so I missed the chance to try the coffee, but I did get the pistachio tiramisu—it was delicious! I also had the chocolate-filled crackers (three pieces), which were a nice treat. I was really impressed by the welcoming hospitality and the cozy vibe of the store. I’ll definitely go back to try the coffee and croissants next time."
"Came here on a whim with my partner to simply try new coffee and food. The vibe was really pleasant, gave busy street cafe atmosphere with a cute indoor shop for goods and snacks. We went with coffee and a cacio de pepe pizzette, which was so good! It was satisfying and cheesy and made fresh to order. It easily fed 2 people comfortably."
"Very busy cute market with cozy euro vibes. Was very packed Saturday morning. It was nearly standing room by 12:00. The lattes are giving Cali prices but..."
