When I was there in person I got another order of the takoyaki too. I'd like to go back try the soft serve options soon. It's a nice cafe that would be a cute setting for a date or to study and work. If you have a chance to visit in person definitely do. There's a lot of attention to detail even right down to the packaging and food as well which is most important. The delicious food and ambiance will keep me coming back when in the area. If they can keep it tasting the same I'll keep ordering for take out as well. The cafe has beautiful interiors and even the take out containers are very beautiful and colorful. It feels like a passion project. You can tell they paid a lot of attention to the branding. I like the purple and would keep the take out bag even. The cup sleeves are cute and colorful, it might take a lot to print all the colors though so maybe that can be kept to its essence. I would say keep up the standards for the food and drinks, I'd come back for more because of it. simple stuff like sleeve can probably be simplified to its essence. I'm not sure what the costs are for something like that for the business but I'd probably invest in the food. I only say that because I'd like it to stay around longer and it is a nice addition to the area. Having a small business is not easy.. especially service, so props to every business owner in it. when I was there last in person the staff were really nice as well. Hope more people can discover this lovely cafe and enjoy!

I thought it was odd that they had the rolls already packaged in containers. I expected the roll to be soft and warm. It was neither. It just didn't have enough of a cinnamon and yeast flavor. The cream cheese frosting was excellent....not overly sweet and intense cream cheese flavor. I also had the cereal milk latte. Good, but not great. Service was excellent...very friendly and welcoming. It also is a cute coffee shop. I would go back-just not for the cinnamon roll!

I wanted to get a matcha but my standards are pretty high considering i always buy japan ceremonial grade matcha and i am so tired of matcha that is not green at all or doesn't even taste like matcha. DRINK ORDERED: Strawberry matcha - DELICIOUS. It was so flavorful and sweet. I will say the strawberry does overpower the matcha a bit but you could still taste the matcha. I even had my fiancé taste it who is a matcha SNOB and he even said it was good! The color of the matcha is gorgeous and honestly it kept me energized all day so def quality! The girl who made my drink was new but she did a GREAT job. KEEP IT UP GIRLFRIEND! Would I come back again? HELL YES.

Peach season is back and so is my favorite peach drink…read more The Peach Cheese was full of big, juicy peach pieces. You can really taste the difference when drinks are made with fresh fruit. The Pineapple Bobo with coconut milk was another good one. Pineapple and boba worked surprisingly well together. Black Grape Cheese is still my go-to. I always get it with no sugar and it's honestly not sweet at all. Mango Sago is my husband's favorite. Even with no added sugar, it's still naturally sweet because the mango is so ripe. For fresh fruit tea in JC, this is still my favorite spot. Get the seasonal fruit drinks while they're available. And you might get lucky and see the cute guy working behind the counter.

Heads up, this place is extremely small, i don't even recall any area inside to sit. Think all orders here are for to go. When i arrived, i order via a kiosk and the person making the drink was able to make it fairly quickly. ended up getting a mango sago drink. most boba places i go to now, i typically order a version of a mango sago drink. guess i'm in my mango era. overall, decent place to get your milk tea / boba drink.

I tried: + Dragonfruit and pineapple croissant + Calamansi croissant twist + Mango peach Cruffin + Ube piaya The calamansi was my favorite, followed by the dragonfruit croissant and ube piaya. Truly no misses. They didn't have the famed ube latte croissant - was on the menu for the next day though. Will be back to try that! Employees are super friendly.

After finally trying the famous two Michelin starred Kasama in Chicago, I can even say Panaderya Salvaje still holds a special place in my heart. Different styles, but this mom-and-pop bakery has already earned a Michelin star in my heart. ＊Ube Almond Twice Baked Croissant $7 *** My favorite of the bunch. Super ube-forward with both halaya and ganache. Rich, gooey, and not overly sweet. The crunchy croissant made it even better. ＊Dragonfruit & Pineapple Croissant $8 Tropical flavor combo for summer. The pineapple pastry cream was overflowing, while the dragonfruit ganache was more subtle but gave that pretty pop of color. The croissant didn't stay as plump/crispy as their usual pastry cream ones, probably due to the heat wave! ＊Humba Pandesal Sando $12 ** Love at first bite! The pandesal was so soft, the baked egg was almost custardy like steamed egg, and the pork belly had a nice sweet-savory flavor. The fermented black bean reminded me so much of chinese douchi, and the pork belly was like hong shao rou. ＊Hot Honey Foccacia $7 I got this fresh out of the oven. Crispy crust, super pillowy crumb, with just a gentle heat that wasn't overwhelming at all. The corner piece is always the best iykyk.

I do suggest small boxes for the donuts that have a whipped topping. I had an almond donut with a whipped topping and it was tricky to take out the bag without getting the cream lost inside. The Belgium bacon, egg and cheese was really tasty and filling. Eggs were cooked nicely, bacon was the perfect saltiness to it (but I did expect sliced of bacon not crumbled as it wasn't specified on the menu), I had the maple syrup on the side and I loved being able to just dip it when I wanted as opposed to having it mixed in the sandwich as it originally is made. Service was great - friendly, welcoming and helpful for a first timer! (Well, second after this review lol). Ambience is laid back. Great for gathering with friends or enjoying a cafe alone.

I ordered the Iced Vanilla Protein Cold Brew, and my mom went with the French Velvet Latte (lavender and vanilla). Both drinks were delicious and well-balanced. The French Velvet in particular had a lovely floral flavor without being overpowering. My only complaint is that it felt a bit small for the price. Our group also picked up a few croissants, and everyone enjoyed them. They leaned more sweet than savory, which isn't usually my preference, but they were still tasty. The drink menu offers plenty of variety, though the pastry selection is fairly limited, and the pastries aren't baked in-house. The real standout here is the vibe. Call Me Mia is quaint but incredibly chic. The decor feels thoughtfully curated, with vintage telephones displayed in elegant frames, antique teapots, moka pots, and other charming touches throughout the space. It feels cozy, stylish, and very Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. As for service, the barista was efficient and knew what he was doing, but he came across as a bit short and matter-of-fact. Not rude, just not particularly warm or welcoming. Still, the drinks were excellent, so he definitely delivered where it mattered most. Overall, I'd happily stop back for another coffee and to soak in the beautiful atmosphere. If you're looking for a stylish coffee shop with creative drinks, Call Me Mia is worth a visit.

I burned my tongue, that's how hot. I couldn't take another sip for a while until it cooled down, then it was really good. So just something to be aware of. The other disappointing thing was they have pastries on the menu so I went to order one but the barista said they actually didn't have any available. So I ended up having to go somewhere else for that. I'm still giving this business 4 stars though. I know they're new, and every new business deserves time to work out the kinks!

Stumbled across this place and I'm so glad I did! They're a coffee shop with pastries and boba drinks available. The shop is a little small with a little bit of bench seating and one table, but it works. I decided to go with an ube infused latte which was good. I didn't think the ube flavor was too strong but I did order another add shot of espresso which might've overpowered the ube flavor. Also, I really appreciated how the barista asked if our drinks were sweet enough before we left the shop. Amazing customer service!! I would stop by again for another drink if I'm in the area.
