Ray LinFebruary 5, 2014If you don't know it's there, it's easy to miss. Find the door in the wood paneling and enter into a different world of, well, wonder.
Nick GMay 12, 2016Okinawa Japanese taco rice . there is a tree in the middle of the restaurant see photo 👌
Emily WilsonAugust 24, 2015Sashimi zuke don is really good and really well-priced. They also make a great iced tea.
Carmen Gloria RiquelmeJune 16, 2016Small but really nice, has a tree inside.The tacos are not really tacos (don't have tortilla) but is good. Good for read a book or work too
Ashley MeadApril 15, 2016Sashimi for breakfast! Feels like Japan. Small, cash only. Come early, it's worth it!- Andy JiangApril 9, 2019Cozy and delicious. What a fun take on regular brunch food! Get the taco rice.
Kat Stew---October 11, 2013Wonderous lil place tucked away under a real tree... Great coffee great prices, our server was the sweetest nicest lil thing :) I'm so pleased
Sarah KelleherDecember 31, 2013Hidden gem tucked away off the beaten path. Really eclectic but delicious menu. Cozy fireplace in the winter.
Paloma OrtizMarch 11, 2015Small cute place. The food is really good and it's very cozy. A little expensive but worth it.
Patricia Bragado MarinApril 7, 2018The place is very cool but honestly, i didnt have the best service. The food was good.
Jane ChungDecember 20, 2014Nice and cozy. Great ambiance. I got the chicken meatballs with rice. It was just okay. I might try a mini sandwich next time
Mayank MahajanMay 9, 2017Super cute and cozy location (feels like a treehouse!), and really good chicken meatballs for brunch.
Joshua BoggsApril 10, 2018The chicken meatballs make a great meal. I love the interior here. There’s a tree inside!
Don CaldwellDecember 10, 2011Get here in the morning for the awesome parmesan thyme egg croissants. Nutella-banana croissants are fantastic. Best coffee in the neighborhood.
Ruby AnayaSeptember 22, 2014If you don't get the French Toast Croissant for yourself, get it to share. Best french toast I've ever had.
Joo JooApril 30, 2015It felt like a Japanese fusion comfort food. Funny space with a tree inside, pretty dysfunctional but some might love it. Pretty basic but creative menu
Wake up early( 10ish) to get a table for brunch and avoid the wait. Also, Tsukune don.
Bond StreetOctober 19, 2016"This is the best place for a relaxing coffee or tea with someone special." Hassan Rahim, art director Read more
Sue LeeMarch 20, 2015I love everything here, but especially the sashimi zuke don and green tea cappuccino.
HCJuly 21, 2013May be a cafe, but the menu includes cold ramen noodles, sashimi, and hard to find Japanese beer! Count me in!!!
Adam KopecFebruary 8, 2015Delicious, but awkward "don't bring outside coffee inside" policy. Tricky considering its proximity to Blue Bottle during breakfast.
TiffanyOctober 2, 2015Come early to get your hands on the sashimi zuke don. If you get here around 12:30-1pm it'll be gone already
Tess RinearsonOctober 31, 2018a lot smaller and quainter than its Berlin counterpart! we were the only people in there on a weekday morning.
Karina NAugust 10, 2018Place is cute, chicken meatballs bowl is just ok but pricey, Matchaccino is delicious.
Ms HeleneJanuary 20, 2013Just a door on N 6th street which opens to an inner-courtyard that's homely and cosy. No soy milk when I visited but substituted with almond milk instead ($4.50) - average, not great coffee.
Jordan FrankfurtApril 19, 2015Tiny place that fills up fast. Great value for your money and a perfect date spot.- Missy KMarch 10, 2012Cozy cafe, great latte. Although the internet cutout every 10 seconds and the electrical outlets were limited. Bring your gadgets charged.
Joseph KristofferOctober 20, 2011Love almost everything about this spot. It's nice the wifi is free, but it's slow so don't expect to get much heavy remote work done here if that's what you're looking for.
Lauryn BennettDecember 28, 2011Perfect place for lunch meetings: uber-fresh moz, tomato & basil sammy + perfect latte + wifi + throwback soundtrack.
T.S. DrownJuly 25, 2011A favorite coffeeshop, small, great coffee, pastries, and sandwiches, and snacks, it's small, has WiFi, good location.
I wish no one knew of this place so I could have it all to myself. Hamburg Steak is a staple.
- Alyssa BereznakJuly 2, 2015they have herbal alcoholic "shakes " here but they're actually just misleadingly named cocktails
Hrag VartanianDecember 14, 2014Expect a different type of brunch with more subtle flavors. Though this brunch is carb heavy.
Wei VaynJune 25, 2012Try the Sorted Cookies - Ginger snap cookies, almond cookies and lemon cookies. Yum
