    Peanut Butter Waffles

    Carlos is an awesome guy and very professional to attend to his customers. We had the peanut butter waffles, crepes, tea. The place is very nice and clean. The area in general is very pleasant. I recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting something healthy, delicious, and price reasonable.

    Great place! I love how unique and "sweet treat" the protein shakes were! And amazing prices as well - I'll definitely been back. I believe I got the Mango Madness (mango something) . Service was quick and nice - cute spot for a on the go smoothie / meet up

    Peanut butter smoothie

    I asked what was popular and ended up getting the peanut butter smoothie. I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter tbh but tell me why I finished this big ass smoothie in like 5 minutes LOL (I'm writing this review in my car with the heater on cuz I drank it so fast n now I'm freezing) Not kidding it tasted sooo good. I'm definitely going back for other flavors. Also this smoothie was 40g of protein for 325 calories? Like how lol

    The Strawberry Pina Colada smoothie...!

    Today I discovered this new small business and ordered Strawberry Pina Colada (non-alcoholic) smoothie...it was AMAZING...! Fresh ingredients and a shredded coconut on the top, perfect taste, makes one feel like a human again...! I'm wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone...!

    Açaí Smoothie

    Amazingly friendly shop with quality offering of very healthy and delicious shakes and smoothies.

Shortly after, she walked in and we both had breakfast together. I have been to this lovely, well kept and maintained establishment at least 7 times in the past. 2nd time reviewing this place. We ordered a Veggie Omelette that came with: spinach, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, & asparagus. For cheese we opted for Swiss cheese free of charge. ($18.99), got a side order of fruit ($5.99), an order of English Muffin(toasted) ($2.99), and a large Orange Juice for ($5.49). Total came out to be $30.70 including tax, minus his tip. Both guys Nathan and Benny were very helpful, attentive and nice. Food was very hot, DELICIOUS and prices were affordable for their portions. Nathan didn't charge me for the OJ, because he forgot to bring me my whipped cream that came with a side of half Waffle, that actually looked more like a full Waffle. We both stayed with water. They have pretty extensive menu options from breakfast, salads, wraps, and sandwiches. All types of beverages. Hot and cold. Business of operation is consistent, which I LOVE!! Gender neutral restroom, a nice patio on both sides of the restaurant, and about 8 to 10 spots of parking spaces behind the restaurant. Restroom was also clean and fully stocked with all the essentials. Nice artwork on the walls. You can also find street or meter parking. They have 2 or 3 other locations. They did a little touch up here and there that was very noticeable. This is a great breakfast/lunch spot to indulge yourself. I wanted to eat more, but one can only eat so much. Ambiance was very nice, chill, clean, and had overhead music playing inside the restaurant.. They have to-go orders, delivery, but no catering. 10/10. Will definitely return next time I am craving any one of their menu options. Thank you Nathan, Benny, management & Waffles!!

We both ordered the traditional breakfast plates and it definitely did not disappoint. It was a pretty large breakfast with bacon, eggs, potatoes, a croissant and two crepes with your choice of hot sauces around the table. We ate so much and still had so much to bring home. This did us good for two meals and I loved the incorporation of the crepes, which I feel like you normally don't get on a traditional breakfast plates. The potatoes were crispy and crunchy on the outside but a very nice soft potatoey texture on the inside and of course the bacon was exactly how bacon should be when you order it. Wished I ordered orange juice or another coffee drink instead because the chai latte was just a bit too sweet for my liking, but I still drank the whole thing. There was a water dispenser provided with to go boxes self serve which I really appreciated. Loved the atmosphere as well and the bathroom was very clean. I would definitely come here again and would recommend :-)

I have tried a few different things here, but this past order I got the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and added avocado and honestly really liked it. The ciabatta bread was crispy and the the chicken was perfectly spicy and I just really enjoyed it. The dressing on the side salad was also terrific. I would recommend if you are in the area.

So knowing they're also here in West Adams with a plus point that sit down space was provided, so obviously I was giving it a go. They did have shared free parking lot with some other tenants within the complex, giving it another bonus point. Price was pretty affordable for the portion. I got their Dolce Latte and I was pleased that temperature was pretty hot just like how I fancied my hot coffee. Typically I was disappointed by the lukewarm one that I mostly had to request my drink being extra hot. This one served it just right despite I forgot to mention it when ordering. The coffee was sweetened with condensed milk and I thought it's a decent cup for being less than $7

We ordered the spicy chicken sandwich (combo) with fries, glazed chicken, lemonade, and radish. The chicken sandwich was probably the best burger we've had in recent months--brioche buns were soft & buttery, chicken really well fried, spicy enough to have a kick but did not overpower. We were surprised by the fries - hot, crispy, really fresh and far from normal food court quality. The glazed chicken tasted just like the ones you'd get at a classic joint in Seoul, which was nostalgic for me who is a huge sweet and spicy fan. My fiancé and I were initially looking for a quick meal after spending hours looking for our wedding bands in the jewelry district...but this lunch is what ended up being the highlight of our day. We're really wishing the best for this place! It's so rare to see a small business that's put in this much effort and care into their food, and we definitely felt it. Wish I'd taken some photos to post here but we dived straight in :-(

They have chairs and tables for you to hang out and eat/drink what you purchased. There's also just benches if you wanna lounge. I've seen people here working on their laptop and groups of people around one table so the vibe is chill and friendly. It also depends on what time of day you come. Weekends usually get packed. As for the drinks and food. What we've had here has always been good. Best to eat their Croffle and baked goods there. Although Matcha is not for my liking, I'm more for their Taro Drink. B says the Matcha here is one of the better ones she's had. I have to agree even their Matcha Ice Cream is good. We get is the Matcha Croffle + Ice Cream, Matcha Einspanner, Taro Einspanner, and their cakes. Only thing I knocked down a star is because Not all the workers know the answers to your questions of what is in what food item or if you can substitute the milks. So that's something Cafe Upper should train all staff. Especially if people have food allergies.

While my wife likely already knew this, I was constantly on the look for little cafes and roasteries that we could try each morning. Although that didn't happen every day, one afternoon we were in need of some caffeine and stumbled along Fika Fika and I am so happy that we did. One of my two favorite places that we stopped for coffee while on our trip, this place is deceivingly large inside, and all decorated in ceramic earth tones and white. It's actually a very calming feeling, almost like a deep breath in. The only thing that was a little bit annoying was there was no parking and street spaces were the only option. However, that seemed to be a trench of several of the areas we visited, and coming from Philly, I totally understand that obstacle of difficulty and would never hold it against them. Especially once you discover how delicious the coffee is after getting inside. When we were there it was nearly dead, which was a nice respite from the day, as we were all pretty worn out from the morning. So it provided a nice break in a quiet space where we could also get a nice hot or iced drink and stop for a few minutes. Their espresso was delicious, not overly robust and burnt as so many American-palate-focused espressos are apt to be, and felt much more after a European or Italian style of pulled shot. My cappuccino was excellent, and they even poured the shots in macchiato style over top to give that bit of different flavor profile and drinking experience. I was so impressed, I even picked up some bagged, roasted coffee for friends to gift when we arrived home, and some for myself, which I enjoyed thoroughly for a week or two after our trip had come to its conclusion. If you are in LA or passing through and need good coffee, Fika Fika should definitely be on your list of "definitely stop" places. Their mochi paws were okay, but that's not why I was there. I was there for the coffee and that's exactly what they deliver in spades. Delicious. Perfectly outed and crafted. Coffee!
