When I stopped by on a weekday evening at 9pm it was packed. They had stations setup throughout the store to order different goods, which helped to alleviate the rush. Knafeh ($6) - They offered 2 types of knafeh, one with cheese and one with custard. I went with the one made with Nabulsi cheese and topped with shredded phyllo, and soaked in sugar syrup. It was warm, crispy and delicious! Karak tea ($5) - This milk tea drink was made with aromatic spices, primarily cardamom, cloves, ginger and cloves. I was happy to see they used whole milk instead of evaporated milk. The drink was incredibly rich and creamy and tasted great. Turkish delight ($18 / lb.) - This was extremely fresh, soft and chewy, made with cornstarch, sugar, nuts. Some of the varieties I tried had chocolate and/or fruits. The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

The Dubai crepe was super rich and creamy and nice large portion size. The strawberry mousse cake was frozen solid, so I was not able to eat it right away but it was a lovely mousse with jelly fruit filling and a thick chocolate crust. Also got a bag of chocolates, which are weighed by the pound. The only qualm I have is that the chocolates are not labeled, so when you mix them all together, it truly is a bit of a Russian roulette on what you'll get. Everything was super yummy. Will definitely need to be back!

The menu was honestly a bit overwhelming, but the barista who took my order was very patient and asked what I normally like and made recommendations. He also mentioned all their drinks are oat milk based. I asked for a recommendation that was sweet but not too sweet and I went with his recommendation of the Stardust, which was honestly super good and had a strong espresso flavor but also had some sugar and cinnamon for sweetness. I believe my drink came out to a little over $6 with tax which is pretty standard nowadays. Super pleased with my visit and would go back if I'm ever in the area!

Love this coffee! Blue Moon was my choice and don't regret it either. Great little placeread more

I am almost a daily regular here. I didn't quite like it at first and avoided it for a while, but…read moreit has grown on me. Ha! The coffee is a bit different, but it's easy to find something you like. I usually get the Deep State Cold Brew. the shaken espresso is pretty good too. I will buy a bag of beans periodically. I would hope that they are fair trade, which is not clear, but some of their beans are organic, and they brew up tasty at home. The atmosphere is nice. The counter staff are friendly and seem to know what they are doing. Usually good spots available to sit and get a bit of work done, unless it's one of the rare days where the place is totally full. Good scenerey usually. it's a mix of NASA people, university students and other odds and ends from the community. They play crappy music, but not too loud, so easy to tune out. The thing that needs the most improvement are the baked goods. Absolutely terrible. At first I thought they had Costco muffins or something similar, but in truth, Costco muffins would be a BIG improvement. Their baked goods suck. LOL! But that's not going to keep me from coming here. Definitely an all around good coffee shop.

Although I didn't try any of the food options, what I saw nearby patrons eating, looked quite delicious. The seasonal coffee I tried? Yummy!

One of the guys who prepared the coffee, came over and asked how I liked my drink. Great customer service! I will for sure be returning to try out other flavors of coffee/drinks.

Food was maybe a 6, at most a 7. I ordered the tater tots and the boudin fried pie. The tater tots…read morewere fine. Nothing spectacular. What bothered me the most was the boudin fried pie. The pastry shell itself had no flavor and neither did the boudin. If anything, the boudin was both gamey and bland at the same time and I'm not sure how that even works. Boudin should be peppery and have that liver taste that isn't gamey. This was weird. The Cafe Sua Da was ok. It was stronger than some of the other places but it was still missing the punch that real Viet coffee has. Service was good. The lady was nice and took my order quickly. Ambiance was ok. It's all outside which isn't great unfortunately since it's most humid down here. It's definitely more of a grab and go spot.

I'll definitely be back to get my hands on one next time. In the meantime, the chorizo and egg breakfast taco absolutely delivered. The flour tortilla tasted fresh and authentic, soft with just the right chew. And the lemon cake? A total sleeper hit -- bright, moist, and the perfect sweet bite to finish everything
