The…read moresetting/atmosphere is nice enough--not all-out chic like some coffeehouses (Origin in Savannah comes to mind) but nice enough. The lady at the counter was also nice enough and my bagel with lox, iced tea, and chocolate tart came up quickly. The bagel with lox was fine: if you have quality ingredients that should not be hard to produce though. There's not a lot to mess up with this order and it was perfectly fine, as was the iced tea. The chocolate tart--the filling was great, but the crust a bit thick, dense, and not very buttery. I bake a lot at home and can do better than this with my pastry crusts. So I feel like for the price, they should be able to do better, too. That much being said, still a solid experience and good location. However, the prices seemed high: here's the thing, a lot of ethnic bakeries and the like are around. The quality at the Istanbul Bakery at Apna Bazaar is better and the prices lower. Same with other places I can think of locally, too. The concep with Blueberry is great but some leveling up yet to be done here.

We have tried to find a not too sweet cake for my mom's birthday and finally found it. They have many good cakes like strawberry cheese cake, Nutella chese cake, salted caramel chocolate,etc. The cake decor is simple, modern and chic. Candles small chocolate plaque of greetings, cake knife and matches come with the cake. For 6-8 inch cake, it is about $45-55. Their pastries are also delicious and always make my coworker smile when I brought them to office. Price ranges from $4-6. My favorites are mini garlic butter croissants, tiramisu tarts, and korean BBQ pastries. I also like their sandwiches, very fresh and can be refrigerated for a few days. The restaurant is very clean, spacious and plenty of seating. The workers are very nice and helpful. There is plenty of parking in front of the bakery.

Delicious food, and I'll definitely be back…read more My favorite was probably the Chocolate Supreme Croissant ($7), which was shaped more like a big hockey puck. My other favorite was the Cheese Tart ($4 for a mini tart). It was pie crust with an excellent New York cheesecake filling. My wife probably put it in first place, though she rated everything here really high (straight 8s, and an 8 is uncommon coming from her). We love New York-style cheesecake, and this tasted about as good as any we've tried in town (Publix's NY-style in the bakery). We need to try their cheesecake here sometime. My least favorite was the Chausson aux Pommes (apple turnover; $4.29). Initially, I thought it was excellent. The problem was there was too much dry pastry for the apple filling inside. Have a higher ratio of filling to pastry, and maybe it would be excellent. I still liked it, but I probably wouldn't get it again, unlike the other two. I didn't find the setting relaxing, unfortunately. Maybe it was the noise level, crowd, or music. None were obviously bad, but I wasn't relaxed. So, in the final analysis, I'm more likely to go back to my favorite pastry shop, Cruffin & Tea, than here. Still, I'll be back to this place, trying more things. I'm more likely to take out from here, though. Some recommended things here, for next time: croissant donuts, strawberry yogurt cake, mochi donuts, strawberry and cream croissant (or lemon cream one), pain au chocolate or chocolate croissants, very berry pastries (or fruit bites), almond croissant or pastry, ham and cheese croissant or pastry, maybe pastry frank.

We tried the bacon smash croissant burger and the chicken sandwich special. Burger was good in…read moreconcept, but the clump of bacon was soggy and tough. The croissants were cold but tasted ok. We remarked that it just looked like the patties were frozen bulk buys that were reheated and the croissants similarly had sort of a prepackaged taste. Later we saw the patty boxes sitting in their food truck which confirmed our suspicion. I'd say that it's probably fine for a place that's mostly focused on mochi, but the sandwich prices were pretty high for that kind of thing. The vegetables seemed fresh though. The loaded fries did have a pretty good flavor on them with the sauce and toppings. Service was nice though. I'm sure they're probably better known for their desserts, so next time I probably would skip the lunch part and give the mochi a taste.

I have visited this amazing Italian cafe so many times, and they never disappoint me. The owners…read moreare actually from Italy, so you will hear them speaking Italian. The owner, Massi, is such a nice guy and loves to tell funny jokes. His wife, Sabrina, isn't always there, but she is the sweetest and always provides my family with the best customer service. Because I have been raving about this place so much, all my relatives love it and go there regularly (yes, they go every weekend). Please don't expect Starbucks drinks from there. They serve authentic Italian style coffee, so you will get a hot caffe latte in a tall glass. The macchiato will be in a small espresso cup. Try their hot cappuccino with whole milk so you can experience the authentic way of making cappuccino (they only use one shot of espresso, and they said that's the Italian way!). Italian hot chocolate is also a favorite among European customers. Sandwiches are always great, and my favorite is prosciutto, arugula, Parmesan cheese, and tomato. It's a perfect spot to gather with friends or family. This cafe is a must try. These pictures are from multiple visits within three years.

Sapori Authentic…read more Sapori Italian Restaurant is the kind of place you go when you're craving real, authentic Italian flavors instead of the usual chain-restaurant version. From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere and the aroma of garlic, olive oil set the tone for a true Italian treat! The menu focuses on traditional recipes made with fresh ingredients. Dishes feel straight out of a family kitchen in Italy. Service is warm and welcoming, adding to the relaxed, family-style vibe. Sapori delivers comforting, classic Italian cuisine that feels both genuine and satisfying. The paninis steal the show with rich parm, aromatic olive oil, and prosciutto that I haven't found since I was in Italy. The coffee drinks are amazing Lavassa served, of course. Desserts from cannoli,custard filled pasteri3s, pistachio horns, and more

The employee working was extremely kind, helpful and informative. The (I think I'll call it a treat? I'm not sure of the technical name), I chose was the raspberry one! It was the perfect amount of sweet. The girl working let me know they are all made in house and they don't add tons of extra sugar, they largely rely on the sweetness present in the fruit.which was so nice! I didnt feel gross after eating this! The price was the same as others I have tried. The tiramisu latte (half sweet) was sooo good! A bit sweet but so good! And pretty. The price was $6.50 which I would say is in the low end of iced latte costs. The inside was super cute and plenty of space to sit. I highly recommend you try it out!

These ladies are fabulous and know how to make simply delightful treats. OMGoodness- this is edible art! Great space, there was still a decent selection for a Friday afternoon- I snagged one of the delicious chocolate cookies and picked a blueberry-lemon curd croissant muffin for the next morning. It was so good- I was shocked how good that cruffin was- not sure what to call it, but the buttery flaky goodness, fresh blueberries, tart and creamy lemon filling- all the flavors balanced perfectly. Truthfully, I still have some left and it's so good! I actually cannot wait to go back- hopefully this week. Oh- and the cafe is supper cute too!

The best foodie quest so far this year…read more I fell off in love instantly with the cottage style house setup. As I walked up to the counter there nothing but smiling faces staring back at me. I ordered an egg sandwich on sourdough bread with an iced tea. I also ordered a sourdough rosemary & garlic loaf to go. The iced tea had a mild minty flavor and it tasted out of this world. Definitely refreshing. The food tasted so fresh and "real". I can't wait to go back!! I chose to sit outside because it was sunny out and I loved the outside eating area set up. There are plenty of colorful tables/seating outside. You can choose a table tucked away from the peaceful street view or sit out near the tree and street view and enjoy the sun. Outstanding experience!

It's a cute, small, family-owned restaurant with so many great options on the menu. I came in today and it was quiet -- which was perfect for me -- but I would absolutely love to see this place booming with people because it truly deserves it.

You can literally taste the love that goes into each dish. I'm not sure of the owner's name, but she is so sweet, clearly hardworking, and an amazing cook. I'm truly grateful this café is near my job and offers such delicious, healthy options. Highly recommend supporting this wonderful local spot!
