    Mouthwatering breakfast croissant sandwich! And it's big! Like more than a regular breakfast croissant anywhere else! So delicious and well prepared. You will not be disappointed in whatever delicious decision you make! Try their Ice coffee it is underrated. Great variety of food selections. Just the smell of breakfast! Donuts! Very friendly staff! And quick even when busy!

    #12 w avocado. Toooo good.
    Shadi A.

    i've been coming here for over 4 years. the consistency in the quality of the food is what keeps me coming back not to mention the amazing customer service. no matter how busy they are they're still nice and friendly! i'm sure everything on their menu is delicious and i should probably try more items but i always get the #12 with avocado and extra toasted. IT IS SO GOOD. i can eat this at any time of day but unworthy close at 3pm. highly recommend! 100/10

    Small little donut shop with delicious break sandwiches. Wasn't anything extremely special but it did the job!! 2-3 small tables inside so it can be crowded. Food was made hot and fresh and the pickled jalapeños they give you were my favorite part.

    This place is right next to a 7-Eleven. I go to all the time small little spot makes donuts, coffee sandwiches. I got good service as soon as I walked in they greeted me and I was given my coffee within three minutes. I ordered a medium coffee two spoons of sugar and half-and-half. It's delicious and taste better than Dunkin' Donuts without the corporate BS. I will come back and get another cup.

    I drive to my customer in the middle of the way I saw the advertise. It was so clean and tempting to try out the food. I order veggie wrap and passion, fruit ice tea Everything was delicious. I definitely come back again now I found my spot. You should try it out everything it's fresh. That's what I like about this place clean and fresh. Thank you so much. Keep doing good job.

    I stopped by here in the morning to get some donuts. The plaza that this store is located in has very limited parking spots and small so be aware. I came in the early morning so I got a spot right in the front. When I walked inside, I was the only customer. So I looked at their donuts selections and knew what I wanted. The lady working let me know that I'll say some money if I get a box of 6 donuts instead of individual so I decided to do that. I got the 2 strawberry sprinkle donut, 2 chocolate glazed donut and 2 regular glazed donut. The lady working also threw in a complimentary donut as well which was very nice. The donuts were decent and my nephew along with my niece enjoyed them. They have some fruit drinks too and boba drinks if you're interested.

    ##10 Croissant Sandwich

    This cafe is my favorite place to get breakfast sandwiches and it always satisfies when I have that craving. It's in a small plaza with limited parking so sometimes you have to get lucky to get a spot. The place itself is also small but always full of customers (new and returning) so you know it must be good! I always get the #10 croissant breakfast sandwich which includes all the meats (ham, bacon, sausage) and of course egg and cheese. They also ask if you want avocado and mayo. Just a note that the mayo is free of charge but the avocado is not. The first time I ordered, it was a bit misleading because they lump those two together when asking and don't mention it being an additional charge unless you ask. These sandwiches are huge, delicious, and hearty - they spare no expense with packing these up. It is definitely filling and you could probably save the other half for another meal! I have gone numerous times before and with the quality of their sandwiches, I will continue to keep coming back!

    I love this place, but they fell short today. They burnt my bagel. I'm still eating it because I don't waste money, but I am disappointed. An everything bagel burnt really sucks! They should've tossed the burnt bagel.

    Pretty good! They get busy in the morning but move fast. The lady who runs this place- you are amazing! While I was waiting I saw her controlling everything and everyone , moving from cooking station to register and making sure everyone gets helped as soon as possible. And she was super nice! I got DC burrito and added avocado and tomato. It was made right there , quick and fresh. Very good! I recommend!

    Don't be discouraged with the outside appearance. This place is buzzling with people who are getting their sandwiches or Boba drinks. Food must be good. Limited seating capacity, 2 or 3 tables inside and bar stools are present. I learned about this place from my Five Star App. This cafe gives free custom drink of your choice on your birthday. How wonderful is that? When I came in to get my custom drink, I wasn't prepared. There were 20+ Boba Tea to choose from. Huh The lady gave me time to decide. And I just chose Matcha Tea blended. I prefer to have Boba inside, I failed to mention it. I will come back to try their sandwiches. They make it infront of you. Which is a great way to show that they're preparing the food in a clean way. The place isn't hard to find. It is in the corner of Roscoe and Reseda Blvd. Limited parking that is shared with other businesses. No bathroom facilities.

    It's not photo worthy......

    Whoever is making the maple bar and maple twist donuts here, needs A LOT more practice at making them look appetizing and photo worthy. I thought maybe it was because I went later in the day when all the pretty ones were sold out but It didn't matter what time of the day I go. I went at 7 am once and it still looked like that. The service isn't bad nor amazing.

    Love this place. I still have yet to be disappointed in anything I've had here. This place is always busy and since they make things fresh for you it can get kind of backed up. I'd suggest calling in your order first. The 2 ladies up front were the most amazing. Thank you!

    Do I need to order ahead for two dozen donut holes and half a dozen donuts? Or can I pick them up on my way to work the day I need them?

    You can pick up at the spot they have them fresh every morning.

    This is one of our go-to spots whenever we're craving boba. We've tried both their milk teas and…read morefruit teas, and they've all been consistently good. One thing I really appreciate is that the drinks aren't overly sweet, so you can actually enjoy the flavors without feeling like you're drinking pure sugar. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and the shop is clean and well-kept. There are plenty of boba places to choose from, but this is one we find ourselves coming back to again and again.

    Visited: 4/1/26 & 4/26/26…read more DRINKS Dalgona Matcha Viet Coffee ($6.25) - 7/10 This drink was enjoyable overall, but the matcha didn't taste very high quality. It leaned more on the milky side rather than having that deeper, slightly earthy matcha flavor you'd expect. It still had a nice sweetness and was easy to drink, but if you're someone who really appreciates strong, authentic matcha, this might fall a bit short. Viet Coffee with Sea Salt Foam ($6.25) - 7.5/10 My sister ordered this at 50% sweetness, which ended up being a great choice since 100% would likely be overpowering. The sea salt foam added a nice creamy contrast that balanced the drink well. However, it didn't quite capture the rich taste of traditional Vietnamese coffee and instead tasted more like a sweeter, standard iced coffee. Still good, just not very authentic in flavor. The Nutty Latte ($6.75) - 4/10 This one wasn't for me at all. The texture was extremely thick and chunky, making it difficult and honestly unpleasant to drink. It felt like drinking straight peanut butter mixed with milk, and the chunks would sometimes get stuck in my throat. It also didn't resemble a latte in either texture or taste. Iced Rose Latte with Cheese Foam and Honey Boba ($6.25 + $0.85 + $0.85) - 7.5/10 If you enjoy floral drinks, especially rose, you'll likely enjoy this one. The rose flavor is definitely present without being too overpowering, and the cheese foam adds a slight savory contrast that keeps it interesting. The honey boba adds a bit of extra sweetness and texture. Overall, it's a solid drink, just nothing particularly standout compared to other rose lattes. FOOD Mozzarella Cheese Sticks ($5.25) - 6/10 These come with your choice of sauce, and I went with ranch. They're very standard mozzarella sticks, nothing particularly memorable or unique. The cheese wasn't as melty as I would've liked, and the breading was noticeably thick, which made them feel a bit heavy. They're fine if you're craving something fried, but not something I'd go out of my way to get again. Okonomi French Fries ($5.25) - 7/10 The sauce is definitely the highlight here! It has a slightly sweet flavor that makes the fries more enjoyable and adds something different. Unfortunately, the fries themselves were a bit underwhelming. They tasted slightly stale, lacked seasoning, and weren't as crispy as they should have been. Chicken Wings ($7.75) - 8.5/10 This was surprisingly the best item! The chicken was fresh, hot, and had a really satisfying crunch. While they weren't heavily seasoned on their own, the texture and freshness made up for it, and the ranch dipping sauce helped add more flavor. Definitely a solid choice if you want something savory alongside your drink. How to Order: Ordering is done through a touchpad system, which makes the process quick and easy, especially when it's busy. They also have a very wide variety of drinks on the menu, so there's something for pretty much everyone, whether you like coffee, tea, or more unique specialty drinks. Seating: This is a great place to study or hang out for longer periods of time. There's plenty of indoor seating along with accessible outlets, which makes it convenient if you need to get work done. However, it can get very loud and hectic during the week since a lot of students come here, sometimes to the point where it feels chaotic with people talking loudly or even yelling. Weekends are generally a bit calmer, but the music is still played fairly loud, so it may not be ideal if you're sensitive to noise unless you bring noise-canceling headphones. I didn't mind it at all and could work normally. Atmosphere: One big plus is that they're open late until midnight, which makes it a really convenient late-night spot whether you're studying or just want somewhere to relax. The shop itself has a modern, casual vibe, and the high traffic gives it a lively atmosphere, though that can be a downside depending on what you're looking for. Parking: It's located in a plaza, so parking is relatively easy and accessible. Restroom: The restroom requires a code to access and is relatively clean, which is always appreciated.

Shakes/Food: I've almost had everything on the menu because I basically live at shake smart. But my to go items are the Rawcai Bowl (taste so good! Especially the acai when it's three scoops mixed in with the strawberry jam at the bottom) or he PB squared ( Peanut butter is my favorite snack when it comes to being healthy LOL so this one is def. a must try when you go. I also love the texture and the protein blended in). Service: I sometimes do the Secret Shopper and they always get good reviews from me because the service is great. Everyone there is friendly and helpful! Environment: Super small and spacious. It can take a while to get your order when it's packed but when it's empty you'll get your order fast!

Prices are on the high side, but it's Cali... we're from the islands so it's no sticker shock to us. My son just loved everything about this business. Founded by SDSU students and being "healthy" snack options it's right up his alley. We tried a good mix of things. Smoothies, bites, sweet treats. The protein balls were good. I didn't try any of the smoothies but there were no complaints. Avo toast was good and the acai was pretty basic. I honestly wouldn't go out of my way to check this place out. But with it being conveniently outside of the gym, I can see it just being a good default.
