    Sometimes it is one of those days you refuse to make dinner and Finjani Cafe had just what I needed. I ordered a small Adani tea and they gave me a large at no extra cost. It was so sweet of them as it was an extremely cold day out and I appreciated the extra heat. They also have a few food options of crepes, waffles, and wraps. I ordered a chicken shwarma wrap. The wrap tasted fantastic! The only thing I would have wished that they didn't cut the wrap up into smaller bites. It made it messy to eat where I would have rather just held the wrap. I also ordered a slice of the lotus cheesecake but they gave me the lotus cake. Even though it wasn't what I ordered, the cake had great flavor. The gentlemen working were very friendly. They have seating inside and there were a couple of patrons working on computers and chatting with friends. I ordered my food to go. This is a great little spot.

    Good food. Very limited menu. The girl working is very nice but a little aloof. Nice environment. Good desserts! Thank you!

    Great little coffee house with great pastries and service. Inside is always clean and well maintained and they do a masterful job making their drinks. I got the caramel macchiato and it was phenomenal.

    Fruit crepe with pistachio drizzle.

    Fresh fruit & amazing coffee with cardamom, a new taste experience. Super clean & staff are so friendly. The crepe was tastebud popping - pistachio sauce?! Crazy good!!

    This place is INCREDIBLE!!! Fresh, quality food and drinks, impeccable service. You can feel the passion and love in the taste and experience. Fresh fruit and honey in the smoothies, interesting spices, the hummus is to die for. He gave me a free drink for my birthday and gave us the leftover smoothie to share. Can't say enough good things. Y'all better come here and support this place OR ELSE!

    Delicious strawberry matcha and wonderful service! Great spot for a coffee date with my sister!

    Dubai chocolate strawberry cup

    My husband and I got lost after a dinner date, and saw the neon signs saying ice cream and decided to stop. I'm glad we did! The lady that helped us was really sweet, and the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup I got was incredible. My husband got ice cream, and we took a bubble tea to go back to our babysitter.

    Pistachio waffle
    Mark T.

    Decided to go to Finjani after a medical appointment in Dublin, looking for something different. Very favorable Yelp reviews helped, and we were not disappointed. The pistachio waffle was unique and awesome! The owner is very passionate about his food and drink offerings, representing various tastes around the world. He will even accommodate your modifications upon request, just try him! My wife had Nutella drizzle added to her pistachio waffle, and she loved it! Also, don't forget the desserts, which we grabbed two to take home. Will definitely return on our next trip to the Hilliard area.

    Spinach pastry and coffee
    Minji K.

    Instantly felt like I was transported to a different place at Finjani cafe! They specialize in yemini tea, coffee, and other middle eastern desserts. They boil the tea and coffee in a pot after you order so it is freshly made. The adeni tea was a milky black tea and had a strong taste of finjan spices. The mofawar coffee had cardamom and cream-- if you like lattes then you would like this one. The worker explained how yemini coffee usually has milk and honey in it so the flavors are very mild and creamy. The desserts are also delicious! They had a very small selection of savory treats like the spinach pastry, which had dried spinach in a flat bread. They also have a lamb filled savory pastry. The specialty crepe was very decadent, with strawberry and banana wrapped in a long layered crepe and topped with chocolate, lotus sauce, and a lotus biscuit. It's the perfect dessert if you have a sweet tooth! The rose cake was very refreshing Turkish style cake. It is soaked in a milky syrup and topped with light whipped cream. The flavor was very mild and it wasn't too sweet so it's definitely a cake anyone could enjoy! They had lots of indoor seating with middle eastern music playing to set the ambiance. Since they are open until 11pm, it is a fun place to visit with friends and it did get busier around 8-9pm. The workers were all very friendly and efficient as well.

    Love this place! Such great service, coffee and ambiance.! Will be back certainly. Thank you JD for the wonderful customer and showing your passion for serving customers correctly. Our family had a great time and I'm positive we will be back soon!

    Turkish coffee!
    Waylon M.

    This place is a treasure! My first time here, and the barista was super helpful explaining the different drinks. I opted for Turkish coffee. It is my first experience with it, and is really good. The coffee is strong and aromatic, but not bitter. The cafe is in a strip mall, but it is very clean and bright. The pastries look and smell amazing.

    The mango mousse cake has been a birthday and holiday staple in my family for as long as I can…read moreremember. Most recently, I came to pick up a cake for Father's Day and also stopped in to try a couple drinks and a matcha roll. The interior is clean with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are very friendly. Come early if you want a bigger selection of bread and pastries! I came around 6 pm on a Saturday and most breads were sold out but there were still plenty of cakes left. I ordered the iced matcha latte and iced black sesame lattes (both with oat milk). After mixing, the matcha latte was a light shade of green and pretty much just tasted like milk which was kind of disappointing. The black sesame latte on the other hand, had a nice strong black sesame flavor. The mango and strawberry smoothies were super refreshing especially since it was hot outside. I actually saved the matcha roll for 2 days later and it still tasted really fresh and yummy.

    I RARELY give five star reviews. This place has…read moreconsistently been one of the best in Columbus. It is a fusion of French in Japanese and the techniques and flavors show that. Throughout the years, they have had a variety of different offerings, but they're always the same staples, which is their incredible baked goods, their cakes and sweet cake rolls, a small variety, sandwich, sandwiches and fun drink drinks. They currently have sweet crêpes, but they used to have savory who wants as well back in the day. This entire plaza is an Asian heaven, and I like to bring people from out of town to it because you can literally spend hours in this area. As you can tell for my photos, they are always this busy. The place itself is nice and clean, and the staff is friendly. I'm not a sweet person at all, so I like that this place has unique offerings and some savory ones too. I recommend the mango cake, the sweet butter rolls that literally taste like a slightly sweeten butter inside of a soft pillow bread, and for you to take a loaf of bread home as well. Pro tip: later in the day, the offerings from this bakery are half off at Tensuke Market. This place has been voted as one of the best bakeries in the country & we have it in our own backyard. If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out.

    Started our Valentine's day at Winn Winn for the first time. It was extremely busy and parking was…read morequite scarce. We had to park a bit down a side street and walk over to the shop. The inside and outside was filled with customers, some waiting for their order and some waiting to place their order. I had one mission: the cookie milk latte. I saw it online and knew I needed to try it. Housemade sugar cookies steeped in milk and strained, then used in a delicious latte? Sign me up. It took a while for our turn to order, but there was a small sign at the register stating no hot drinks could be made, which was a bummer for my husband because he's a hot drink fanatic. He hastily ordered an ube latte, something I definitely would have ordered if I wasn't getting the cookie milk latte. The shop itself was quite cute, but they aren't kidding about it being a "to go" cafe. There were a few seating options, but we didn't want to take up too much space. They warned us that the wait would be around 30 minutes for our drinks, and we were okay with that- we had already come all this way to try it. I'm not kidding you when I say I downed my cookie milk latte in like 5 minutes. It was beyond delicious. My husband's ube latte wasn't as great. It wasn't super sweet and didn't really have much ube flavor. Overall, I really enjoyed my drink and hope they have more fun specialties like this one!

I was driving by and saw a small line out the door of an inviting outdoor indoor seating area. the interior was bright and inviting. I got my usual Cortado and was happy with it. The 4 stars comes because I think they may have cooked it at too high a temp/pressure as it was not drinkable right away. Thankfully the flavor and milk held well in a slightly over cooked espresso. The bakery looked amazing and I will be back to try it again.

I ended up ordering a ginger drink, which was so good but then Hannah, recommended her favorite, which was a kale drink and she brought me a free sample and it was awesome. Then she made sure I ordered the right food and it was right on time if not sooner and I just couldn't say enough about her. And then she kept checking up on me even though she didn't need to because they have two handy innovations: syrup in a bottle that you can just use as much as you want, and decanter of coffee rather than coming back and having us wait for refills, we can do our own refills. Now that wrinkle is from the management, which I also talk to, and they are awesome people with great vision. So back to the food it was prepared perfectly. I'm gonna display a picture because I was so jealous to eat the food. I have it before I even took the picture so please excuse the picture except that it does make the same.

When I first came in, they immediately asked "what do you want" and walked away as soon as I finished talking. I didn't get an option for a receipt or anything. They were very snippy, but I was willing to excuse it because maybe they were busy with mobile orders or something. I used to work in food service so I understand! Then our drinks came out, and one was the incorrect size. I brushed this off until I got home, and we realized it was the wrong drink. The only reason I took it is because the employee handed it directly to me as she said the correct name of the drink. It also tasted very watered down, and the other smoothie we got tasted similar. We got two wraps: the turkey avocado wrap and the chicken caesar. Both were massively overloaded with their respective sauces (mayo and caesar dressing) and weren't too enjoyable. Hopefully will be better next time, if we are brave enough to return.
