I originally went here to try their blueberry cinnamon roll that went viral, but ended up getting a sandwich and a latte as well. Very quiet but cute café. The cinnamon roll wasn't very cinnamon-y which I actually really liked and the frosting was a blueberry cream cheese frosting. The sandwich I got I believe is roasted turkey focaccia, that bread is amazing And it seems that everything was made to order. It is easily... Hands-down... One of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. The latte was there Valentine's Day themed strawberry foam latte and I thought that was pretty good although I prefer Matcha. read more

In business for 2 years this sweet coffee shop on Memorial makes fresh foccacia and Sourdough bread daily. With influence from Turkey you can also get baklava and lovely pastries. Loads of parking and small seating area inside to enjoy a cafe. Owner was helpful knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely worth a stopby!! read more

Cute place and the sandwich was so good especially with the focaccia bread. Drinks were decently good too but I would mainly come here for the sandwiches. read more

Nice people. A good cinnamon roll. Dough.handling indicating good baking skills. Tasty glaze topping. Complimented the coffee well. (I had to dip lol) Coffee by a Los Angeles roaster named BOXX. But they also use Houston's own Geva. Banana crunch muffin also good though slightly more on the gummy side as to be expected with bananas. But an excellent and intense banana flavor for the win. Sourdough loaf priced at $12.50 (might give it a try one day) read more

I really want to like this place, and I've been there three times now, but I have to say - the prices are just astronomical. A latte (they only have one size) and a small piece of cheesecake was $20 with tip. A sandwich, chips, and drink will run you $30. It's cute but not feasible for regular visits. I have had the turkey sandwich, and it was OK but nothing spectacular. I had a cookie that I didn't really care for and both times I ordered coffee, I regretted it. The lattes are mostly milk and you cannot taste coffee at all. The cheesecake is very good though and worth ordering but again expensive for the size. read more

Lovely family-owned cafe with the sweetest staff! I walked in during peak lunchtime on Saturday and they were quite busy, but still managed to provide great customer service. Everything is homemade, which makes it taste even better. The focaccia sandwiches were my favorites! The Mama's Special comes with a delicious egg filling inside focaccia bread. The Italian Dream and Prosciutto were also really good with the pesto filling. They also have amazing dessert and drinks, most notable was the Melonade which is a seasonal drink with watermelon and lemonade. This was the perfect treat for a hot summer day. Looking forward to coming back again soon! read more

5 stars for service, huge selection, fresh product and clean brightly lit place. Lack of flavor though brought it down by 2 stars. We got 2 things, lemon blueberry muffin and the Carrot cake. Lemon blueberry was good, subtle lemon flavor throughout. Not as strong as I've had at other places. Plentiful in blueberries though, and the sugar topping was nice. Unfortunately the Carrot cake lacked any and all flavor. Super plain cake, only thing that had any flavor was the icing. Both things looked super delicious in the case but were unfortunately a letdown. We'll be back soon though, and try their foccacia sandwiches and other things in hopes I can update this review later on with a better rating read more

I love this place! I come here after the gym in the mornings and it is consistently good coffee and muffins! Also, the sourdough bread...is just the best! My family won't eat any other bread now! read more

I stopped by because it's local and serve faccocia bread(which I love). Been here 3 times I don't really like it. It's such a bland sandwich very little meat and a little over priced. Service is good, food is made to order and staff is nice . Inside is clean well lit they have seating. read more

First time trying this place and honestly 10/10. Everything tasted so fresh and customer service was great. Will definitely be coming back soon. read more

Fast service, fresh food, cute cafe ambiance and morning lattes and teas! We quickly stopped by for breakfast and it took about 7 minutes from order. Focaccia bread sandwiches are so soft and decadent! I feel like I am in a cafe in Italy lol so Memorial is a perfect spot for this! read more

Tried this cute and quaint cafe in memorial. Great ambiance and the workers are very friendly. For the drinks, the iced almond milk latte was good, the mint lemonade tasted a little artificial and too sweet, and the matcha latte wasn't the best. However, the desserts were great. I would love to come back and try their food next time! read more

Nice little cafe / bakery where they specialize in the focaccia bread, Italy's style bread, so they have sandwich here, and other baked goods. My famous so far is Roasted Beef Alfa Focaccia. The service is fast and precise with each sandwich bag lab with the sandwich inside. The sandwich are big and you get your money worth here. I recommend this place for everyone, especially you live area this place. read more

Sandwich is cold. The special. On your breakfast menu. 10:30 am May 11,2026. Girl at counter didn't know what was on the sandwich. Looked at me and the wall menu to say to me: read the menu. She is not cut out for this work. Food not good. Service worse. read more

Great local spot! We came in on a Sunday and it was very relaxing. The cinnamon rolls are made fresh daily, and one of the best I've ever had. read more

Decided to give this place a shot. I love sweets and it's in my area as well. They have other stuff besides sweets. They have sandwiches and even some breakfast options as they are open from 6am-4pm. It looks like a nice place to chill, drink some coffee or tea, and eat. I picked up two items: Blackberry Chocolate Chip Cookie and the Lemon Blueberry muffin. The cookie itself, just tasted dry. Maybe that's how it's made. It was better when dipped in my coffee. Overall, I just wasn't a fan. The Lemon Blueberry muffin wasn't bad. It had good flavor, but felt dry like the cookie. read more

I ordered the roasted chicken sandwich on focaccia with caramelized onions and mushrooms . What I received was fluffy, flavorless, cold, not toasted focaccia with inexpensive deli meat on it. It was not roasted chicken and it was ice cold. It's dishonest to advertise it is roasted chicken and it's inexpensive deli meat. There was a smattering of mushrooms and caramelized onion. When one orders roasted chicken with mushrooms and caramelized onion you expect a toasted sandwich with fresh roasted chicken. Not a tiny amount of deli meat. The sandwich made zero sense. It was 14.99 so I had expectations. It was flavorless as well. The amount of bread is ridiculously overwhelming compared to the tiny bit of deli meat. I had the basque cheesecake and it was very, very good. I like to support mom and pops and have lots of respect for them but this sandwich was inexcusable. read more

Mama Fontana is such a gem. The bread is always super fresh, and you can actually taste the difference. I usually get the turkey sandwich. it's simple but really good every time. The people working there are always kind, and the place just has a calm, easy vibe. Oh, and the chocolate chip cookie is definitely worth grabbing!!! read more

My dad saw this place on Google and took my sister and I to go try this place. We arrived, and the place is super cute and was full with people. The ladies who work the business are super friendly, and you can tell that they work with care and hope that their customers and satisfied with the food they put out. I'll definitely stop by the next time I'm in the area. My sister and I got focaccia sandwiches. We ordered the Roast Beef Focaccia and the Prosciutto Focaccia. Personally, I thought the sandwiches would taste better toasted or warmed, but they were still tasty and nostalgic to eat even if they weren't. Even though they were both delicious, all three of us agreed that the Roast Beef Focaccia was the winner. The roasted beef pastrami was good, but the muhammara, a roasted red pepper dip/spread that they sell in jars, was the real star of the show. Unfortunately, I tried the sandwich in the car after we left, but I was debating whether to turn back around and go back to buy some of their jarred muhammara because it was THAT good. This place definitely has some of the best sandwiches I've had in a while. The dedication they have to make fresh bread every single day is plausible, and I wish this place was more popular because they truly deserve it. read more

An OK place for breakfast. My husband and I enjoyed our food, but it just simply wasn't enough food to fill our appetites. Also, coffee was included with our meals; however, the coffee came in large cups filled to the top. I wanted to add milk or cream, and after asking for it, they gave me one of those small peel-top containers. Ummm, sir... I need like 10 of those lol! I suggest they set up a station for those who'd like to add milk, sugar, etc to their coffee. read more

the roasted turkey, sub the avocado spread for pesto... YOU'RE WELCOME!!! Also the best baklava I've had in 10-12 years. Brown sugar oatmilk was also fab, not too sweet or milky. Drove 20 min from post oak to try & will definitely will be making the drive again. read more

This place is great. The prosciutto sandwich is top tier. Do yourself a favor and stop by.

Too much money, too little meat. No value. 17$ for 2oz of meat is a joke not a sandwich.

So so delicious! Bread was incredible pastries so soft and perfectly sweet. Service quick and attentive, very kind. Ambiance so comfortable and cozy. Loved it :) read more

My husband and I have now been there several times, mostly for breakfast and once for lunch. The sandwiches are delicious! If you go for lunch, the serving size is large enough to split with someone. The cappuccino is great! They have a nice selection of pastries and we've tried the blueberry muffin and the ugly but good and both were very good. This is a family owned business and the food is made fresh. So, if you dine here don't expect fast food quick service. However, you will get high quality service from very pleasant people. The place itself is very relaxing. Nice soothing music and cute decor. Ever since I started making my own sourdough bread, I haven't purchased any because I now prefer my own. I did recently purchase a loaf of sourdough bread from this place and I can say that it rivals my own! I would buy another loaf next time I'm behind on feeding my starter. I would highly recommend this place! For those of you who frequently take your children to Mrs. Donuts, I'd recommend that you get your adult coffee and breakfast from here. read more

So yummy. Sandwich was huge, tasty, fresh, filling. The desserts you can tell are home style and very good, not super sweet or infused w artificial flavors like other bakeries do.
