I definitely expected it to be delicious and authentic since it was a Korean cafe, but it definitely exceeded my expectations. +Customer service was friendly. +Atmosphere is lively.

My friends wanted to try the basque cheesecake, and I normally don't really like cheesecake, but this one was so yum. I think I might be starting to enjoy basque cheesecakes. We got the original flavor, and it wasn't too sweet, it was soo good! We also tried the mango bingsoo, which came out to be smaller than the pictures made it seem. Nonetheless it was delicious, the snow was very soft, and the mangos were sooo juicy and sweet. I appreciated that they used real mangos.

Stopped by Daily Provisions to order breakfast on a Wednesday morning. There's seating indoors…read more(with low back stools) and seating out front (about four tables). I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

After trying Cookies 'n Panna for the first time, I was craving it for days afterward. I also love Red Flag. It's unique, unexpected, and one of their sweeter options. Of their rotating flavors, I've had Smooth Strawberry and Mango. They're good, but not flavors I would personally repeat. The strawberry isn't as strawberry forward as I was hoping and the mango was decent, but didn't stand out. The biggest challenge is the line. Even at 3 p.m. on a random weekday, the wait can be 30 to 40 minutes. They sell out of flavors as the day goes on, and close relatively early for a dessert spot at 9:30 p.m. If there is something specific you want to try, go earlier. They post the menu daily on Instagram, although I have shown up on a few occasions and found the in-store menu differed from what was posted. If you want to skip the line entirely, and don't mind buying a bit more ice cream, you can order pints online ahead of time.

Overall: 4.5/5 One…read moreof my favorite things about this place is that they use organic oat milk as their default, so no worrying about lactose or paying a surcharge for alternative milk. They also have cocktails on the menu which is something we definitely need to come back for. We got their spring specials this time but there are so many drinks I still want to try. The space is a bit cramped so it's more of a grab and go situation. The Banana Bread Hojicha ($8.75) was wow, it tastes exactly like it sounds. It was sweet enough for me without needing any additional sweetener. The only issue was that the hojicha came out a little grainy, so I think the barista didn't mix it as well as they would matcha. The Cherry Blossom Matcha ($8.50) was everything we imagined cherry blossom to taste like. A lot of times cherry blossom drinks end up tasting pretty off, but this one actually delivered. It's made with ground cherry blossom which I think makes all the difference. The matcha itself was good but the drink runs on the less sweet side, so my husband added honey and brown sugar syrup to his. By the time I got to try it, it tasted just as good as mine. We are definitely coming back for those cocktails.

You immediately think "dubai chocolate", which they have, but that's not their only exceptional menu item. They had an array of breakfast pastries and lots of delicious coffees and cold drinks to choose from. I ended up purchasing a biscoff croissant that tasted HEAVENLY. I paired it with a small coffee just for the warmth. The croissant was truly everything and then some, from the topping to the filling. It's definitely a rich treat but so worth it.

We tried the raspberry and lychee tart, and I really liked how the tartness helped balance out the sweetness. The lychee bits in there were sooo yum too. I could definitely taste both the lychee and the raspberry well. And THE CRUST!! That was amazing. We also tried the strawberry matcha latte, but unfortunately that was way too sweet for me. The strawberry also dominated the matcha so it tasted more like strawberry milk :( We came on a Friday evening, and it was really difficult to find a seat so we ended up standing around to eat everything. This place is so popular! I want to come back to try all the other desserts especially the cream puffs and pastries!

Fantastic little lunch/brunch spot! I came with a friend for lunch on a weekday and we were…read moresurprised by how busy it was. It's a bit confusing as there are separate waiting lines for dine-in and take-out and given it was a workday, there were plenty of people ordering take-out We were seated fairly quickly a the counter by the window and I ordered the Green Eggs n' Damn after seeing plenty of others getting the same. Loved the spinach & basil omelet stuffed with feta. The basil really comes through and adds a twist to omelet. I got a side of the greek sausage to try too and it was a little salty but yummy with a squeeze of lemon. My friend got the smash, avocado and feta on their thick cut toast. Great for a simple, lighter option!

It was good, but not particularly memorable and didn't quite live up to expectations. The little cookie on the side was a nice touch, though. The latte art was intricate and very pretty. We sipped our drinks at the high-top tables, which was much more casual. The sit-down tables were filled with late brunch diners. The cafe seemed pretty and well-liked, so I'm open to try their food in the future.

When you enter there is a bar you can sit at and two large high top tables next to it. As you walk further in there is a lounge with couches and various sizes tables. The whole space is surrounded by books! Heaven! We ordered a chai, matcha and a ginger cookie. Shout out to the woman taking my order for comping me my drink for my birthday! Everyone from the staff was friendly - I really enjoyed being there. The only thing I would say is someone should come by to check on the tables more often as I had to return other people's abandoned drinks. But you know what first world problems, am I right? Maybe they can have a sign or mention to customers to return their own cups before leaving. I sort of can't imagine why people don't... It is quite popular spot so you need to be very patient and strategic if you want to grab a table, as well as sprinkled with a little bit of luck. We unfortunately got there a little late. I went there at 3pm and hunted for a table and my friend got there by 330pm. By the time we ordered and started drinking our coffees - we were informed the lounge area will be closed at 4pm to prepare for the evening wine bar. Oh right this cafe turns into a wine bar in the evenings! How cool! At 4pm we thankfully grabbed one of the high tables - sharing it with another couple but it was large enough for the 4 of us. The lights dimmed and the atmosphere changed to more intimate. We unfortunately had to leave at 5pm, but I imagined picking up a James Baldwin book, ordering some white wine and enjoying both.... Mmm definitely next time. Maybe sometimes after work - sounds like a great wind down.
