I was passing by and decided to stop in for a tea, and I’m so glad I did! The décor is beautiful and the service was lovely. It’s such a cute, cozy place, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try their mushroom soup!

Great prices and great service. The khachapuri was big and tasty. It was like being invited to someone's home. I enjoyed my experience very much.

I highly recommend this café for its warm atmosphere, friendly service, and, most importantly, incredibly delicious homemade dishes! I'll definitely be back for the borscht or mushroom cream soup.. 😉👍🏻

I don’t come here as much as I like but I like it everytime I come. The menu has many options from breakfast, to lunch, to deserts. Coffees, teas, beers, wine, cocktails. Very picturesque, a bit kitsch, a bit pricey for the neighbor but the service is good and the place is very cozy. perfect for a quick stop, a date, a group lunch. Great neighborhood spot as they aren’t many cafes like this. Pictures were of a date had some pastries 7/10 and a tea refresher. 7/10. Ambiance 9/10

I came to the bar for a great espresso. They have a wonderful experience here. I only asked for a latte, but I had a credit card and no cash. They were so kind, they didn't ask for any money and just said it was on us. This is the first time this has happened to me. Thank you so much, you're so kind.

This is exactly what I was looking for!!! The ambiance, the space, the drink (loved my cappuccino), everything :) The owner was such a sweet woman. Very attentive and welcoming. Can't wait to visit again - this time staying there instead of rushing.

This coffee shop is the best! Super clean, great coffee, and great service. This is absolutely the nicest coffee shop in the area. If you're in the area, you should give it a try! The lady that made my coffee was so nice, she made my day!

I will forever hold this coffee bar in high regards. The owner was very kind, the coffee was fantastic, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want from a coffee shop. I strongly recommend going here

I had such a great experience at this café! I want to highlight Nanu for her amazing service – so friendly and attentive. The coffee was beautifully served, with perfect temperature and aroma. The soup was also delicious and presented like in a fine restaurant. You can really feel the care for every guest – from the presentation to the warm smile. Thank you, I’ll definitely come back!

Delicious food, cooked fresh to order! Owner took care of our table and was really nice and considerate. We live a block over and happy to have such a place right nearby! Thank you and definitely will be back.

One of my new favorite go to Cafes! The food is amazing and the prices are great for the portions sizes. Besides the food being wonderful the aesthetic is calming with a cozy feel. The staff is very welcoming and provides great service. Definitely recommend checking it out!

The owner is very sweet and she greeted me with a smile. Very welcoming and reasonable with her expectations.. cafe is serene and calm with less people in the afternoon/morning weekdays… food and coffee was okay can’t complain! It was hard to find good food in this area so compared to other stores this cafe was better than most deli/cafe in the area

Upd after owner’s response: the situation described didn’t happen to me, you must be confusing me with someone else. But you’d better learn how to be polite with clients instead of being that rude in person and calling everyone liars in the responses. Or just don’t work with clients and hire someone who’s friendly enough for the job. Extremely rude barista

Well never again! As soon as I walked in with my 93 year old grandmother, the blonde waitress was extremely rude and disrespectful and it was very clear from the start we were not welcomed but we were still interested in the menu and the beautiful decor. I simply asked where we would be able to sit and I was very nastily told “everybody knows the front section is for laptops. Sit in the back and wait” and was rudely brushed off. I couldn’t understand all of what she said so I asked her to repeat and she rudely ignored me. We asked if there was regular coffee and she said “I put the menus in the table”. I said thank you. No response. Waiting 10 minutes, didn’t come to the table as it was very clear she didn’t want us there and would only speak to the customers who were speaking her language. This is an inclusive country and we should be respectful of all customers. We were honest, kind potential customers and loved the decor inside and the menu looked great too. It’s such a shame because if they were more inclusive of other customer types, they could really have potential to be a cozy neighborhood spot. This should be a lesson to be nice to all people when they are nice to you, especially if you are running a service business. Please be kinder. Completely unacceptable behavior. Do not go here unless you know them personally and know you will be treated with respect based on who you are. Otherwise you will be incredibly disappointed and saddened by your experience. The world needs more kindness. I wish I had read the reviews before I entered the establishment. I'm sure a lot of the 5 star reviews were planted to hide the bad ones (or these reviews were by customers that they inherently respect bc of who they are/who they know personally), because when I go deep and scroll through all of the reviews, I see experiences that were exactly like mine. It's strange that the owners reply to the bad reviews and say that these customers "are lying". I don't see what incentive these customers have to lie, nor is it kind to call those who leave honest reviews "liars" . I can assure you if you see reviews with similar descriptions as mine -- well, they're real.

I went in on Sunday morning with my son just looking to order something quick to go, and this was honestly one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve had in NYC. As soon as I walked in and asked if I could order takeout, the lady behind the bar looked at me like I didn’t belong there. Instead of a normal response, she kept saying “huh?” with an annoyed look on her face, like I was bothering her just by being there. I repeated myself, said “to go,” and she still gave me attitude. When I asked for the menu, she literally yanked it and handed it over with this expression that basically said she didn’t care at all. I decided to just go with the avocado toast, which was listed as $14. When it came time to pay, the total on the card machine jumped to $18. I asked why and saw on the receipt there was a $2.10 service charge added on top of tax — for takeout. Nobody explained this upfront, and it felt like they just sneak it in hoping customers won’t notice. She told me it would take 10 minutes, and that was it. No thank you, no smile, just cold and rude. I waited, picked up the food, and left. When I got home and opened the box, I was shocked at how bad it was. For $14 (plus the bogus service charge), I got a single piece of bread with a thin smear of avocado paste, three tiny slices of tomato thrown on top, and a couple of sunflower seeds sprinkled over it. That’s it. No seasoning, no flavor, nothing. Honestly, it looked like something you’d throw together in 30 seconds at home when you’re out of groceries. I took one bite, spit it out, and the rest went straight into the trash. Between the rude service, the hidden charges, and the absolutely pathetic food, I felt completely ripped off. $18 for something that isn’t even edible, and on top of that, being treated like they don’t want customers in the first place? Never again. If I could give zero stars, I would.
