    Grilled Chicken Pesto Panini

    I was searching Yelp for a good place to eat in the area and decided to give this restaurant a try. It was my first time visiting, and I can honestly say it was amazing! Although I don't live nearby, I would definitely make the trip back. The meat was cooked perfectly, and the flavor was absolutely delicious. I also really appreciated the excellent customer service everyone was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I hope this business continues to grow and thrive because they truly deserve it. Thank you to everyone who was working today for making my experience such a great one. I look forward to coming back!

    The BF and I were looking for a place to eat dinner. Cafe Moderno is tucked away in a mini mall and looks like a coffee shop, you'd easily walk on by. But its actually a Mediterranean restaurant, a true hidden gem. Expect to spend about $15 a plate, which is a great value. My only criticism, is its a small restaurant, so it can feel cramped. They have lamb, chicken, shrimp and steak, soup and salad.

    The salad was so good. I will come back just for the salad. I wasn't a fan of the wrap just my personal opinion, but the salad is a 10 out of 10.

    Staff was super nice, umm but these portion sizes are ridiculous, you're charging 17+ dollars for a Salmon "plate" this is small than my hand these are prices of salmon burnt not even a full salmon fillet. This is very scamy, no one willing pays 17 dollars for this a bit of lettuce and some French fries. Ridiculous

    Over my years of being a cafe explorer, I've learned that if the line is out the door, then YOU…read moreGOTTA GO IN. Iron & Kin is THAT GIRL. Iron & Kin was recommended to my by a good friend, so I've had this spot on my "GOTTA TRY" list for months. Alas, the chance finally arose and I got to try it out two days in a row! The first time around, I tried the mango cold brew. I was skeptical at first at the combination of ingredients because I initially thought, "there's no way that mango and coffee can be a thing!". Well, apparently they can be! This beverage was well balanced between the cold brew, the cold foam, and the mango flavoring. The second time, I had gotten an iced matcha latte with a splash of vanilla and that was also delicious! Apparently, the must-haveitem is the iced latte, so I'll be sure to try this out next time and update my review accordingly. I imagine it's going to be OUTTA THIS WORLD! Also, the vibe and aesthetic of Iron & Kin is modern, sleek, and it's a great place to meet with a friend or to hop on your computer and do some remote work. I could definitely see myself coming here more frequently (whenever I'm in town) and setting up shop here. The staff are INCREDIBLY friendly, and althought they are busy, they still are attentive, helpful, and joyful to be in presence with. Iron & Kin is, in fact, a fantastic coffee & tea spot in the Claremont area! I highly recommend it to any folks that are in the area, looking for a yummy spot to stop at for an iced (or hot!) beveraggino.

    Waiting 45 minutes to an hour for coffee is just not it, and this doesn't seem to be a one-off…read more Don't be fooled into thinking a crowd means they're secretly serving some legendary, life-changing latte back there. It's coffee, not a Michelin tasting menu. There are plenty of other coffee options in the village, so this is really a PSA for anyone considering stopping by. If you've got somewhere to be, or honestly even if you don't, this isn't the spot for a quick coffee run. And after all that waiting, the coffee itself is just... fine. Not bad, not memorable, just ok. For that much time standing around, I'd expect something worth the wait. It isn't. Save yourself the time and check out one of the other spots nearby instead.

(sorry if it sounds like I'm writing a Zillow listing, but I'm…read morejust trying to get this to show up in search results if anyone else is curious LOL) OUTLETS: Plenty of outlets!!! There's a set of steps with pillows on each step with a block of about six outlets beside them, and a really comfy, sinky couch (plus an ottoman and two comfy looking armchairs and a big table in the middle) with a set of two outlets on the wall and a star shaped power strip sticking out of the ground with six outlets coming out of it. There are also regular tables and it seems like there are outlets beside them as well. WIFI: The wifi is open (no password necessary), even though they have a password listed where you pick up your food (it's just Sanctuary Coffee). I tried to use one of the locked ones (the only one that made sense), but the wifi password didn't work, so I'm not sure why they have one listed. Regardless, albeit not the fastest wifi I've ever used, it's incredibly doable. I have been working remote here for 1.5 hrs and had almost no issues. MENU: For LA, relatively cheap. I am not a coffee or tea drinker, so I got the peach Italian soda, which was yummy. I believe it was about $4.89, which is not bad at all. I went to And Destroy in the Highland Park-ish area, and I believe an Italian soda with cream (cream is free here) was maybe $7-8. I'm used to paying more for drinks because the specialty (non coffee and tea) drinks are usually pricey, but this was one of the cheapest things on the menu. Also, you can claim a free pastry with your email and first name on their website (it sends you a voucher, just show the email). I got the banana bread, which was fine. I would've gotten zucchini, but it wasn't chocolate chip zucchini. ATMOSPHERE: Not too loud, the music is nice and chill and not very loud. There's cute art on the walls and homey looking lamps. It's the quintessential living room coffee shop, perhaps even rivaling Republik Coffee in Burbank in comfiness, noise level, aesthetic, and price (which is a bummer, because I likely will never be back - we just happened to be in North Pomona today, and I have no idea when we'd ever elect to drive this far again LOL). PARKING: It's in a little strip mall, so there's an actual aboveground lot with plenty of free parking (at least I think it's free, I got dropped off so I didn't pay much attention). Overall, I would highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking to cowork in a cozy atmosphere for relatively cheap in the North Pomona area. It checks all of my boxes except distance from home. I hope this review helps someone, because I always try to find this information on Yelp about new places to visit and it can be very difficult to find! BATHROOM: I believe there are two single person bathrooms like not stalls just one bathroom. Cute art and aesthetic inside, there are hooks on the walls for your stuff. The air dryer was not very strong and there were no paper towels or seat covers, but other than that there was a nice faucet and cute nice soap like homey soap you'd see in someone's house, and the lock worked fine.

I've been eyeing and peeking behind the blinds at this Nosy Neighbors for a while now and finally pulled the trigger today and mosey-ed on down. What a refreshing little shop in the heart of Claremont Village! Love the greenery surrounding the comfortable sofas, tables & bar seating. I perused their menu and found the ingredients to be so highly tempting. After reading about the menu, I had to stop myself from ordering 4-5 drinks all to my self. I narrowed it down to the Reptar latte that's matcha topped with ube cold foam and the Happy Nut latte mixed with almond & macadamia milk, pistachio syrup & pistachio cream. Staff a super amiable and the youn lady say me eyeing the mini donuts being made via a conveyer contraption & asked if I wanted a sample, I said, "Who me? I thought you'd never ask! You must've been reading my mind" lol. Either that or she saw me drool over the counter while I took a video of the donuts being made (see video please). I thought she was going to give me one mini doughnut, but instead she actually gave me about five mini donuts in one bag. She knew it was going to win me over and so I ordered a dozen coz Hubby would've mowed it all down and all I will have left is the cinnamon & sugar dusting. The drinks were made right away and both were heavenly. I especially loved the matcha with ube cold foam. There were a couple of outdoor seating but I definitely did not want to basque under a heat lamp today. There's only street parking but atleast it's free. It's busy but we snagged a spot right away. Great visit. **** Although, the only downside, my eyes were burning from the concentrated smell or frying of the donuts, that was strong and uncontrollable, perhaps the ventilation needs tweaking.
