The experience itself is bright and pleasant, with an open atrium to the upstairs dining area. But don't get too comfy. No laptops allowed here. Doesn't look like there's WiFi either. The food was farmers market fresh. Lots of fresh amazing pastries if you come early. Not sure if they sell out--kind of low key at least compared to the university scene. One specialty is the breakfast sandwich. Basically a croissant looking roll sliced and toasted, filled with breakfast stuff. No wonder it's a favorite. We also had omelets. Simple cheese with buttered French bread toast. VERY GOOD. I also got a side of sausage with cheese on it for a protein boost. The other side of the store had rolls of fresh bread. Also lots of local honey products. New product we had to try was the honey granuals. I'll let you know how it tastes.

This is a review for the White Lotus cafe on Zeeb road (not the farms on Liberty)…read more This place is now my go-to for West Side hang-out. Anytime I have a family member visit me we go here. (I'm thinking of holding my office hours here in the fall, IN PERSON, over real coffee! this coffee is yummmmmmmy) From the moment I walk in the door I am greeted with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Who all know me by my first name! (and I have a difficult Spanish name). They greet me with a smile, never rush me, and take my order all the while answering any questions I might have. Since their menu is always evolving and changing, it's great that they take the time to walk through my options. So they have their standard amazing pizzas (which i first had at the farm) and their shockingly authentic pastries (even better croissants than I have had in Paris). But last week I tried their new breakfast food, and MAN! It was GOOD! the quiche, the omelet....and although I am convinced their chai is the best in Ann Arbor (it's not a premade mix of sugar and chemicals, it's the real deal) ...they now have this new line of matcha, so so good. Sarah and Kat make baristas run for cover, they are that good. And even with all that goodness, I was SHOCKED out of my mind when I had their eggplant sandwich. That thing is fire. FIRE. My family and I are big meat eaters, so when this one hit the scene, we couldn't believe how tasty it was. Even writing this review right now makes me want to go there and eat one. (I'll still keep trying their amazing ever-new menu, but this eggplant sandwich has become a standard) Also, there is this very cute small little market attached where I stop by at the end of the day to pick up freshly made bread for dinner. We love the sesame bread, but geez louise, the baguettes are addictive. Their head baker is INSANELY talented. Remember that scene in Ratatouille when the food critic gets transported to a core memory? That happens to me when I eat that bread. I have purchased goat milk soap there (its handmade by the baker's wife), hot chocolate mix, a kabocha squash, this no sugar added mango puree (which I made a no-sugar added mango torte with). They have these really cool unique products, and it really is a treat to stop by. The place is beautiful, and it is a gem to have such a high quality place to eat on this side of town. The passion that these people have comes through in their food, the products they sell, and the way they treat their community. I love Ann Arbor, and I love this cafe. (okay now i really am going to go and get that eggplant sandwich)

Let's talk about these dill fries. What the holy hell are these and why have I never had anything…read morelike them before??? Stopped in at Pita Way not really on purpose - I had gone straight from work to driving the kid places and had not had dinner so I originally planned to stop for a smoothie in the shopping center by the Meijer off of Jackson Road. On a whim, I stopped in this place instead and ordered the dill fries plus the Mediterranean street corn with some dark meat chicken on top. Omg. So good!!! This is the second time I've been here. Both times the service has been exceptional. I'm always greeted immediately when I come in the door, and the attention to detail and packaging and getting the order right is what you would expect from having an owner behind the counter. Prices are completely reasonable and while the interior is not going to win any awards -- it is a fast casual restaurant in a strip mall after all -- it's fine. Would definitely recommend.

On my recent visit, we enjoyed a burger, garlic cilantro fries, two paletas and a chocolate espanol batido (shake) from the Frita Batidos truck. The paletas and batido were both impressive. I had the lime and summer fruits paleta and it was probably the best popsicle of my life. Very fresh fruit flavors and real fruit in the paleta. The chocolate espanol batido had spices, including lots of cinnamon in a chocolate shake - it was really excellent with intense flavor. The burger and fries were also excellent. And they kindly split the burger for us and played the two halves very nicely. While at HOMES Campus, I also picked up a few excellent chocolates from BonBonBon.

TLDR; NO BREAKFAST AT THIS LOCATION!!!…read more Let me start by saying I LOVE Taco Bell and I almost NEVER give one star reviews, but this was ROUGH! I wanted a quick breakfast and this location advertised breakfast. It's literally on the sign. So I rolled up at 9, but the doors were locked. What? They were supposed to be open. Weird, but we saw someone go through the drive thru, so we gave it a shot. In the drive thru they informed me that they don't serve breakfast, actually. Wow. Okay. I guess I'll get a regular crunch wrap at 9 AM? It became apparent that there was only one person working this whole Taco Bell. He took my order, he took my cash, and I'm pretty certain he made my food. The crunchwrap itself was fine--hot and it tasted normal. I didn't get any sauce packets, though. Overall, this place just seems horribly managed, or mismanaged. The workers are probably good people but the people in charge need to get it together!
