    Frozen Tahini cold brew
    Marium A.

    One of a kind bakery with unique offerings using fresh ingredients. Their frozen tahini cold brew and signature beverages are delicious. Their staff is always sweet and there are plenty of seating options inside and outside.

    croissant
    Katie H.

    food- the croissant was good! I wished they were serving lunch when I was there- I really wanted to try their food, so I'll go back soon. coffee- delicious! and just the cutest cup. It made me want to take it home to junk journal. it was such a solid latte and a good caffeine boost. staff- SO KIND. everyone was so helpful and friendly. vibe- delightful. I brought my laptop and worked for maybe 2 hours, and everyone around me was kind, I was working at a table with like 4 other strangers and it was great. I want to be back and support this place.

    Iced Latte and Blueberry Muffin
    Mary Lou B.

    I love the exterior and interior design of this bakery. The seating was good, and I saw a few people working comfortably on their laptops. The iced coffee and the blueberry muffin were delicious. I went back recently when the owner announced their new brownie. It's RICH. If you love chocolate, it's for you. I'll be back to try the other pastries.

    The sourdough bread was hot out of the oven [they bake it right behind the counter], soft on the inside, just right on the outside, and reasonably priced. The matcha iced tea (with a touch of honey) was delicious and refreshing. And the staff were super friendly. You can sit outside or inside (see photos). The atmosphere is casual and has a neighborhoody-feel. Chef Tony, who runs the place, seems to really care about making customers happy and serving the community.

    Very cute cafe with great coffee, pastries and bread (vegan options too), service, and both indoor and outdoor seating. My running club ended our run here and they were very accommodating of our large group. Someone accidentally dropped their pastry and one of the staff members instantly gave her a new one! They were very kind to us. And love that they have a pay-what-you-can system for bread so everyone can access it. Definitely recommend!

    5-star breads you can find here, the chef is knowledgeable about the sciences behind each pastry he made.

The burger was fresh, juicy, and not greasy at all just really well made. The tater tots were crispy and delicious without feeling oily, which I really appreciated.

Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I'd go back to!

And I gotta say, the bartender is doing work. He's the only one working and the whole place is filled up and he manages it very well. They have food and drinks, mocktails included. I love it here. It's very cozy and homey. But just remember to be courteous, that this is a business so it's okay to do work here but if you're gonna be chilling for a while make sure you're getting some drinks every hour or tipping the 'tender. Also careful with some of the hot drinks they can be really.... hot. I burnt the roof of my tongue on my hot cider drink.

    Got brunch here on a Sunday with a friend. We split the Hot Honey Gem Salad and Hottokeki (Japanese…read moresoufflé pancake). The pancake is gigantic and is absolutely meant to be shared. It was really fluffy and smelled soooo good (reminiscent of the HK street cart waffles). But because it's so big, by the time we ate half of it, we were getting a little tired of the same taste. The salad was good but nothing to rave about. For drinks, we tried the Lebowski-San and Kettl Hojicha Kombucha. It was my first time trying a clarified cocktail and it was really unique. I thought there would be more ice cream honestly but I still loved it. The kombucha though was shockingly tasty. I loved it so much that I bought a bottle online once I got home (they're from Kettl, a local distillery in Brooklyn). The venue is really spacious and I actually planned a wedding here in the past. They host a lot of events and there was even a birthday party happening when I ate there. The only downside is the location. The only train that goes there is the G so it's a bit hard to get to. Food: Hot Honey Gem Salad (radish, buckwheat, fennel, yuzu vinaigrette) 9/10 Hottokeki / Japanese Soufflé Pancake (fluffy hotcake, honey maple butter, sesame) 9/10 Add Mini White Sesame Soft Serve (soy milk, sesame oil) 10/10 - I would recommend just getting this on its own instead of the Hottokeki if you're craving just a little dessert. Drinks: Lebowski-San (green tea shochu, pisco, sakura leaf, clarified matcha ice cream, cold brew coffee floater) 9/10 - This is a clarified cocktail which I didn't expect. I thought I was ordering a matcha ice cream-like drink so although the drink was good, all the ingredients are very subtle in flavor. Kettl x Unified Ferments 'Hojicha' Kombucha (jou yanagi hojicha) 10/10 - This is an absolute must-try!

Last I was here was for brunch and we sat in the outdoor patio area. We got a two things to share and a main each. Shared plates were the soufflé pancake and silken tofu. Both were a miss for me. The pancake had a baking soda aftertaste and also they brought it out right away instead of after we finished our mains so it sat around in the table for a while until we were ready to eat it. Silken tofu had a mediocre flavor palette. There was no variation in texture either, just one plate of mushy items. We didn't finish either one of those. For a main, I ordered a a Wagyu beef bowl. It was really good but on the smaller side. The service was attentive aside from a spillage when the order came. Then they started placing plates on top of the spill instead of wiping the table. Eventually they cleaned it but overall there was lack of training in this case. I am not dying to come back here but would consider if I'm in the area again. I really like the actual space but food/service can improve.

It's not giving community coffee shop, it's giving gtfo as quick as you can. The decor and vibe just felt so off. Giving coffee shop art studio museum but in the worst way possible? Went with a friend and we both immediately felt a bad energy. The person taking our order was just a little stand off ish. We just wanted to get our drinks and get out as quick as possible. We got the blackberry matcha and a latte. You're not going for the matcha, because the matcha flavor isn't really there ~ the blackberry was fine, super sweet though. Had 3 espresso shots in the latte yet it was still somehow so watered down and had an odd aftertaste. Big yikes overall, we could've dealt with the weird pretentious vibes if the coffee was actually good. Only upside is TakuSando is a block away. EDIT: For Bri Can totally understand if people have off days, maybe the baristas were having a bad day, it happens. Either way, the review reflects what we experienced. We had heard great things but unfortunately felt unwelcome from the moment we ordered, whether intentional or not ~ the energy felt cold to us and that changed the experience. & we just didn't love the drinks. You're def right, Rhythm Zero just isn't our cup of tea and that's totally fine. Hope yall continue to do your best and serve the fan base you have :) Love small businesses, don't love a weird Yelp guilt trip (which seems like a pattern for you across all 3 locations...)
