    Superfood Pancakes
    Stacey G.

    Delicious health conscious foods! The pancakes were superb and the oatmeal was very good!!

    This restaurant was so trendy and cute. You walk up to the cashier, order, you get a number and then you sit down and they'll bring your food to you. We ordered the French toast and Huevos Rancheros. The food tasted amazing and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend if you are vegan and even if you're not, you wouldn't even notice. Seriously.

    French Toast
    Jessica R.

    Came here for breakfast on a busy Saturday morning and was assisted by the friendly employees. I ordered a lavender latte with oat milk and French toast. So many menu options sounded so enticing so it was a struggle deciding what to order! The ambiance was very bright and eclectic yet warm and cozy all at the same time. I managed to score a table despite the crowd, but there is ample seating available inside and outside, including a communal table and some counter seating by the windows. My food came out fairly quickly but didn't feel rushed. They make it easy to order additional menu items at the table so you don't have to hop back in line if you don't want to. The lavender latte was sweet and earthy and very well balanced. It was creamy and well frothed and the espresso tasted very fresh. I absolutely loved the French toast. The bread was crunchy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside and was very sweet and flavorful. I really loved the fresh berries, real maple syrup and coconut whipped cream. Everything worked so well together and it was such a decadent and filling meal. I also felt great after eating it and was easy to digest. Parking is super easy in their giant lot with lots of other businesses. They are located at the center of the shopping plaza and are easy to locate! I wish I lived closer so I could come all the time but I will definitely return the next time I am in the area!

    VEGAN REVIEW Stayed nearby for a work trip, came here both days for breakfast, picked up lunch & took some treats home! This is an amazing little vegan & mostly gluten free cafe. I LOVE brunch & that is hard as a vegan, I was so grateful that this place had options to satisfy both sweet & savory cravings. Good coffee & tea drinks. The salads are HUGE & so tasty. Small but mighty selection of vegan cheese, salami & other tasty vittles. Really good desserts & baked goods. Lovely space& friendly staff. Very eco-friendly, as well.

    Cinnamon Roll Organic and Gluten free
    Shawna R.

    I've had this place saved for a while now and since I was in the area I stopped by to grab a little snack. It's a plant-based cafe with lots of gluten free options. Inside seating with an outside patio. Big parking lot inside a shopping center. They had plenty of fresh pastries to choose from but the one that caught my eye was the cinnamon roll. I have been on the hunt for a good gluten free one and this one is delicious, I just wished it was warmed up. As for service, the cashier I had was a little rude. I asked a question about the cinnamon roll being gluten free as there was no signage and I wanted to double check and she looked at me like I should know better and then replied with a yes. Also when I asked for it to go, she just hands me the box; no utensils and didn't even mention where to grab any if they were near by. Not sure if she's the normal cashier but try and be more friendly, esp when you don't know if this is someone's first time in the establishment.

    The JOi Scramble
    Lehi L.

    Was looking for a coffee spot as we were randomly in the area on a Sunday morning. Service and ambiance was friendly. GVO and latte were not good. They tasted burnt and grainy. Lavender latte was similar with only a scent of lavender but no taste of it. Kid like the hot chocolate. The burrito was pretty good. Salsa was flavorful. We'd probably return to try other options available food wise and maybe give them another shot with their drinks.

    Breakfast Burrito, side salad, and a dressing/sauce that I could slurp by the gallon!

    I love JOi Cafe and try to time my visits along 101 to mealtime so I can have an excuse to go. I haven't had anything less than delicious, no matter what I've ordered. I'm off gluten AND dairy so if you too have dietary restrictions, you MUST check it out!! Last week I got a Breakfast Burrito and Cortado coffee (pictured) then a Whoopie pie and cookie dough ball to go (not pictured). While that blew my diet big time, I was able to make it all last -- was worth it! The burrito actually lasted me two meals and the desserts were cut so I could make them last, as well. Lots of food that fit my diet. Sunday mornings there is a farmer's market right outside so it tends to be extremely crowded. This past visit I went early on a Saturday morning. I had my choice of parking and seat, service was quick and friendly, and I was out the door shortly. There are clear menus and lots of ordering options. Some of the items (like in the refrigerated case on the side) are out of my budget and nothing in that case had a price tag on it. I guess most of their patrons don't need to ask about prices (I did and it quickly became apparent that everything in that case is off limits for me!) So if budget is an issue, focus on the items in the main menu. Highly recommend!

    Fun menu
    David L.

    Felt really good taking care of my body with a tasty detox vegan meal at Joi. The fresh ingredients presented innovatively made me forget I was eating vegan only dishes. Without meat, the aroma, taste and texture of vegan ingredients were more pronounce and sharp. Side items that usually were secondary to meat suddenly were more appreciated and enjoyable. The refreshing environment complimented the vegan food nicely. We were here for lunch and it was bustling. Will be back for sure.

    I love everyone here and they have the best juices and chia pudding and avocado toast!! Everything is gluten free and glorious. The fun tuna is so weird but and I'm glad I only got a sample. My avocado toast took forever

    The tiny and grossly overpriced cap. I do not have giant hands. 9oz?!?! Really??? Absurd. Never again.
    Robert W.

    Overpriced. $6+ for a 9oz cappuccino with oat milk?!?????!? I know prices are inflated in California, but this is freaking absurd to a freakishly tiny coffee. Ingredients costs: $0.50 at most for the beans, prob 1/2 that as they will get in bulk and wholesale. Barista style oat milk: $0.34 retail, so again that will be cheaper. Cup (bulk price) $0.25, cost of espresso machine (commercial assuming a new one per year!) per cup less than $0.10. Labor (will be generous based on Google): $21/hr gives $1/drink. Total so far: about $2.20. Yes, rent and utilities, but still feel like being gouged. Nope, won't be going back.

    Almond Milk Latte
    Taylor C.

    You guys this place is insanely good. Drove out from SF valley on a Saturday and this place was busy! Don't worry tho, it's located in a great complex so there's plenty of parking and seating. I ordered an Almond Milk Latte and their Blue Lavender Collagen Smoothie (made in a bowl) without granola. I am literally planning my drive back next weekend as I write this, it was that good. Latte was smooth, perfect level of foam and their espresso is great. Smoothie was the star of the show. I absolutely love the fact that you can get any smoothie as bowl (I'm always wanting bowls instead of a drink!) and the flavors of the bowl are perfect. Literally no notes! I chose to sit outside and enjoy the sun but the inside had plenty of seats and outlets for laptops. They also have a grab and go station with so many yummy looking options. Ignore any negative reviews of staff. They are so kind, even the manager was checking with every table if they needed anything. New fave vegan spot!

    Almond Milk Cortado, 4oz
    Der S.

    The following is an espresso drink review -Cortado 4oz. Glassware Cup -$6.00 -Roast: Medium, 2 oz Espresso -Milk: Almond -Foam Art: Blossom -TOD: 11:00 am -Prep: More than 5min (two orders up) -Machine: Mavam UCEM -Roaster: Blossom Coffee -Baked Goods: yes -Menu: Breakfast, Lunch -Review: Medium roast past first crack; higher acid than full roast so bean flavor is fruit adjacent espresso balanced with silky steamed almond milk. 2oz/2oz espresso, milk substitute. The faux leche does not produce a true Cortado taste. There is an oat milk option, also. Both flavors are distinct from a trad Cortado but worthy steamed drink variants. -Tip Worthy?: 15% Level (Tip-Worthy Scale: 0%; 10%; 15%; 20%; 25%; 25%+) -Customer: Loyal patrons frequent the cafe mostly for a full cafe dining experience, not so much just to sip coffee. The vegan meals btw: chef's kiss.

    Cortez loving the outdoor area!

    Came to the area for a haircut, I used to be a local and was a bit homesick. Stopped at Joi cafe which was always a favorite for ordering lunch from when I lived and worked in the area. As usual, the staff is fantastic and everything on the menu looked fantastic, the inside is adorable with shelves of wonderful items and I knew if I browsed I would definitely get myself into trouble. I decided to go for something new to me anyway and ordered the hot girl avocado toast. The flavors were deliciously layered making each bite a delight. I highly recommend checking out Joi cafe if you're lucky enough to live nearby, or just in the area it is more than worth it stop in'

Staff was very friendly, patient, and understanding that there is a huge menu with lots of options. Went with the vanilla latte hot and the chili Verde breakfast burrito. The chili Verde burrito was OK. I believe Philz coffee has a similar sized burrito and priced about the same. I feel like these are just made offsite and reheated per order - which is fine. Not that great of burrito, and I feel like was more tortilla than burrito at some parts lol The latte was OK, I do not drink coffee often so I'm usually able to gauge how caffeinated it is. The flavor was good for the latte, though did not really get too much of a kick from the coffee itself. I commend this place for having lots of options; I feel like there may be too many for a coffee shop, but that is just my opinion.

Pulling up, I quickly noticed a nice, covered seating area, conveniently located right outside the entrance. Upon entry, I observed a fair number of patrons quietly relaxing and going about their business. After sharing a few quick glances from onlookers, I proceeded to the ordering area. The sweet young lady from behind the counter directed me to the menu. There was a nice selection of hot and cold drinks, as well as, a few bites to satisfy any minor hunger pangs. After hinting to my knowledgable hostess for any culinary crowd favourites, she instinctively pointed out the breakfast burrito. So, I selected the burrito, a tall, cool raspberry tea, and a double-shot of espresso. My coffee was ready first, quickly succeeded by my burrito and tea a few minutes later. The espresso was strong, yet possessed a smooth texture, while my tea was cool and refreshing, having a subtle berry hint of flavour that touched the back of the palate. I was hoping it could have been a tad stronger but, for having no caffeine, it was fine. My breakfast burrito was hearty, juicy, and well seasoned, as it was stuffed with scrambled egg, chopped spinach, cheese, and cubed potatoes snuggled in a nice green wrap. The accompanying side of salsa provided a sweet and tangy note to brighten this, already well-balanced, nosh. The seating area was clean, while the tables were all well kept. If you are looking to find a quiet place to read, work, of just chill with a great cup of joe, look no further. This place is great as it's nestled in a great location with plenty of parking. Enjoy!
