We ordered a large black coffee and a large breakfast pizza. The breakfast pizza comes with eggs your way (poached, scrambled, over easy, medium or hard), choice of cheese (cheddar, swiss, smoked provolone or mozzarella) and a meat or a veg. We opted for over medium, smoked provolone and mushrooms. The pizza took a while to be ready and it was worth the wait! Deliciously crispy and smoky, enhanced by their real wood fired oven! It was a true delight! The coffee was fantastic as well. We had it black, the true test of coffee greatness, and Alaska's house roast passed the test with flying colors! Add in a pleasant dining room and friendly service, and this is a true 5-star experience!

While the service was super friendly and the coffeehouse/pizza shop vibe was pleasant ( loved the jazz music), the dish itself was a 4 out of 5.

The avocado toast looked amazing. I'll try this place again, if only to explore the amazing looking items in the bakery case.

So, the team was definitely running around supporting multiple orders. We also had to wait a bit to be seated because of how popular the spot is. Parking is street parking, but I was able to find one fairly easy and close to the place.

Unfortunately, after eight years of marriage, my husband and I for the first time were asked for me…read morenot to sit on his leg for our morning coffee at our favorite cafe. It is incredibly disheartening that in a society where love and marriage doesn't last, children don't see their parents demonstrate love for each other and furthermore many end in divorce, for those that keep their love strong through the years, others frown upon it. We will not be returning to our favorite cafe because of their disallowance of our demonstration of this sort of affection together. Next time, weigh the value of people's complaints and opinions.

I visited this establishment specifically to order a traditional Cuban colada. Before purchasing, I…read morespoke directly with the owner and asked if they made authentic Cuban coladas. He confidently confirmed that they did. I then specifically asked whether they prepared it with espuma (the sweet foam created by whipping the first drops of espresso with sugar), which is the defining characteristic of a proper Cuban colada. Once again, he assured me that they did. Unfortunately, what I received was not a colada. The employee prepared what was essentially black coffee with sugar added afterward. There was no espuma, no proper preparation process, and very little sugar, leaving the coffee noticeably bitter. After tasting it, I remained at the counter because I knew immediately that this was not what I had ordered. The owner noticed I was still waiting and asked what was wrong. I explained that the drink was not a colada and that it lacked the proper preparation. Rather than acknowledging the issue, he began explaining that his family previously owned the business and now he runs it. When I asked whether he was Cuban, because I was genuinely surprised by his understanding of such a basic Cuban coffee preparation, he responded that it doesn't matter whether sugar is added before or after because "it's the same thing." It is not the same thing. Anyone familiar with Cuban coffee knows that a colada is not simply coffee with sugar. The espuma is created by whipping sugar with the first concentrated drops of espresso before combining it with the remaining coffee. This process creates the signature flavor, texture, and presentation that distinguish a Cuban colada from ordinary sweetened coffee. What disappointed me most was not the poorly prepared drink--it was being told that an incorrectly made coffee was somehow the authentic version. If a business advertises Cuban coffee and claims to serve coladas, the staff and ownership should understand the basic preparation of one of the most iconic beverages in Cuban culture. For anyone unfamiliar with the proper process: 1. Brew strong Cuban espresso. 2. Pour the first few drops of espresso into a cup containing sugar. 3. Vigorously whip the sugar and espresso together until a light caramel-colored espuma forms. 4. Slowly add the remaining espresso while preserving the foam. 5. Serve as a colada. What I received was simply coffee with sugar added afterward and presented as a colada. Those are not the same thing. If you're looking for an authentic Cuban colada prepared traditionally, this was not my experience. Plus I added a second reference for you sir , A colada is a traditional, large-format Cuban espresso designed for sharing. It is made by brewing dark-roast espresso directly into a small amount of sugar, creating a thick, caramel-colored sweet foam called espuma. Served in a large cup with small plastic thimbles, it is meant to be passed around and sipped as quick shots.Follow these steps to make a traditional colada:What You'll NeedEspresso Maker: A standard Moka pot (cafetera)Coffee: Finely ground dark-roast coffee (e.g., Café Bustelo, La Llave)Sugar: 1 to 3 tablespoons of granulated white sugar or brown sugar (to taste)Equipment: A small mixing pitcher, a spoon, and a stack of small demitasse or plastic thimble cupsStep-by-Step InstructionsBrew the Coffee: Fill the bottom chamber of your Moka pot with water, just below the safety valve. Fill the metal funnel with your coffee grounds, leveling them off gently without over-packing. Screw the top on tightly and place it on the stove over medium heat.Prepare the Sugar: While the coffee is heating, add your sugar into a separate, heat-safe cup or metal pitcher.Catch the First Drops: Watch the top chamber of your Moka pot closely. As soon as the very first, thick, dark drops of coffee begin to emerge, pour about 1 teaspoon of this concentrated liquid directly into your sugar.Whip the Espuma: Vigorously whisk or beat the sugar and coffee drops together with a spoon for about 1 to 2 minutes. Keep whisking until it transforms into a pale, thick, peanut-butter-like paste.Combine: Once the rest of the coffee has finished brewing, remove the Moka pot from the heat. Slowly pour the hot coffee into your whipped sugar paste while stirring gently. The sweet foam (espuma) will rise to the top.How to ServePour the colada into your small sharing cups, leaving a nice layer of the sweet foam at the top of each serving.

We've been hitting up Mediterranean restaurants like nobody's business on this leg of our spring…read morebreak, in part because of our proximity to many, and in part because my progeny and I are currently obsessed with babaganoush in its many variations. For this particular dinner, we were also focused on finding a truly vegetarian friendly restaurant where we could take our dear friends. Kabobji was a wonderful choice for vegetarians, omnivores, and carnivores alike. It's a large restaurant with plenty of booths and large tables for gathering with friends and family. Someone I suspect to be an owner was working hard alongside his wait staff and displayed a sense of genuine hospitality. Above all, the restaurant has a rock solid kitchen. The falafel ($13.99 / 5 pieces) here were ****STELLAR****!!! They're shaped like Indian medu vada (fried with a hole in the middle), probably for the same reason: to allow as much of the surface to fry to that perfect golden crisp as possible. And Kabobji's falafel were, in fact, awesomely crisp and well textured, made from soaked chickpeas in the traditional style, perfectly sized, nuanced and subtle in flavor -- some of the best we can remember having. (For reference, we love Nish Nush and Tanoreen for falafel in NYC -- and I think our neighborhood must be one of the major international epicenters for falafel.) Also excellent: the baba ghannouj ($10.99 for the small size), just a bit chunky, enriched with a lot of tahini, a moderate amount of garlic, a touch of lemon. This is how we like to make it at home. The vegetable ghallaba platter ($20.99) was simply made with thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, a small amount of zucchini, I think, and a touch of tomato. I would've loved to have had a spritz of lemon or sprinkle of sumac for a more acidic component, perhaps a little less onion. Note that this dish works better as a main course when accompanied by something protein-y like hummus, but it was pleasant to eat alongside our other orders. A convive, who went with the mixed shawarma platter ($27.99), found it to be a generous portion size and enjoyed it, especially with a side of well composed fattoush salad (+$5.99 to upgrade). Beef shish kebab ($14.99) and lamb shawarma ($15.99) wraps were both excellent and moist, a good balance of protein and vegetable. I didn't try them, but the "cheese pies" ($12.99) turned out to be pitas covered with a large amount of melty white cheese that some young children might enjoy as pizza. (Mine probably would've found them to be "too cheesy," but they're mutants.) They came three to an order. When you dine in, they bring a big basket of warm pita / pida to the table -- quite a generous touch!! I think it's house made and of course went beautifully with our food. Bottom line: GREAT FALAFEL! Great, low-key, family-friendly vibe. Good for vegetarians and non-vegs. Go.
