The service was beyond 10 , the friendliest people I have met in a business ever. They even surprised us with a delightful dessert for my birthday to share. We all got baklava to go, so glad, because it is just the right texture of crisp and sweet, both the walnut and pistachio varieties. I also got a piece of Pistachio ricotta cake. To make our visit feel even more appreciated by the business, we were given goodbyes in the parking lot by hugs from the owner. This is what makes a good business great. Snagged a forkful when I got home. It was like eating air light flavorful whipped cream. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the great experience.

Haraz Coffee House is an amazing coffee shop chain and this particular location is located in a…read moresmall shopping plaza located on Alafaya Trail just north of East Colonial Drive (State Road 50). Haraz Coffee House got its start in Dearborn, Michigan back in 2021 when Hamzah Nasser opened the first location of Haraz Coffee House and the idea of bringing Yemeni coffee to the community. So what makes Yemeni coffee so special? Well, Yemeni is considered to be the birthplace of coffee with the beans grown at high elevations. The beans themselves have an incredibly rich flavor and while a bit higher than other Coffee, such a fantastic coffee is worth a little more. The service here was friendly and i ordered a pistachio latte (hot). I have to say that this coffee was absolutely fantastic. The ambiance here is very comfortable and really adds to the overall experience. I would definitely recommend this particular coffee shop and in particular, their pistachio latte. I give it a well-earned five stars and I can say that I will definitely return.

You can tell the quality is there -- super flavorful, creamy, and not overly artificial tasting. Every bite was rich and satisfying, and honestly I couldn't even wait to take a proper picture before digging in. Second, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They clearly love what they do. They took their time recommending flavors, let us try different samples, and made the whole experience feel fun instead of rushed. That level of friendliness really makes a place memorable. And lastly, I LOVED that they had games available to play. Such a cute and thoughtful touch! It made the visit feel more like a cozy hangout than just a quick dessert stop. Sitting there, playing games, and enjoying good ice cream was such a vibe. Overall, such a sweet little spot with great energy, great service, and delicious ice cream. Definitely a place I'd come back to again and again.

It tasted natural and homemade, with the amazing taro flavor. There were also 3 nice scoops of the ice cream, so I insisted my colleagues to take a bite as well. It was sinfully good! The service was still good and the atmosphere looked kid friendly with board games available. I also saw a board where customers could write messages, but didn't see a marker available. I still really enjoy the ice cream at Ice & Bites, and really need to try different flavors and their teas as well. This was an amazing end to a great dinner with my awesome colleagues. Overall: A

The team working today were welcoming and patient with my myriad of items I wanted to order. We ended up settling on the Avocado Toast with Egg, Croissant Donut, and 2 Lattes. I dream of that Croissant Donut and it still tastes the same. It is crispy on the outside despite the sugary glaze but chewy inside. It is just so amazingly good! If you like "cronuts", this will ruin all others for you. I've never had one better and I like my donuts! Their Avocado Toast is packed with egg, bacon and avocado- it was so fresh and had a wonderful taste! Now I will dream of this toast... Their coffee is so smooth - the raspberry was nicely balanced with the white chocolate for a delicious mid-morning treat. Don't sleep on this little place - it's tucked away in a strip mall perpendicular from Semoran. It's a worthwhile stop!

I really love the decor and space, it's definitely a spot I could see myself eating and working from. The service was also great, though there was a bit of a confusion with my Strawberry Matcha drink. Instead of getting Strawberry Matcha, I ended up with Lavender Matcha. I had thought they were saying it was a Lavender foam that goes on top (I've never had the drinks here before, so I thought this was part of the drink as I had said I wanted the drink as is). I'm also soft spoken, so they might have not heard that part. After I noticed the drink was just green I asked about it, and while they wanted to correct it to Strawberry Matcha, the drink was already made and I really felt bad having them make another drink (plus I love matcha, I'll have it any way!). I did get a strawberry syrup, so I ended up with a Lavender and Strawberry Matcha, which I now call the Hanny Special. :D I will go back again to just try the Strawberry Matcha drink though! Anyways, I did end up getting the egg avocado toast. Looking at the menu, I thought the sandwiches and toast were a bit pricey. I don't think I've ever had avocado toast that was about $11, but after it came out I understood the pricing...the egg avocado toast was big with generous toppings! And it was sooooo good!
