    Grand Opening

    NASA Cafe has a great drink selection, however their pastries left me wanting more. I ordered an Oreo donut, since they all looked super yummy, however it tasted a bit too dry/stale - the presentation was great, but did not deliver in taste. The staff was great and the ambiance of the cafe is nice!

    Second time's a charm--and this time, they leveled up for my birthday! I returned to Café Restaurant NASA for a birthday treat, and let me tell you--they understood the assignment. I ordered a large dessert platter for my birthday BBQ because, well, I take my sweets seriously. And NASA did NOT disappoint. It was like dessert diplomacy--every flavor carefully negotiated, presented, and delivered with peace, harmony, and sugar. But wait--there's more! They surprised me with a Dubai chocolate dessert so rich and indulgent, I think it whispered "you deserve this" before I took the first bite. Pair it with a hot cup of coffee and you'll question every life choice that didn't include this pairing sooner. And just when I thought the sweetness was over, they gifted me a scented candle--a beautiful one! I came for sugar, but left with ambiance. Honestly, who does that? NASA does. Café Restaurant NASA isn't just a place you go to eat--it's where your tastebuds get VIP treatment, and your birthday becomes a saga. Five stars and a slice of gratitude.

    Stopped by for an iced coffee and bagel. We had a great flavored coffee and a quality NY sesame seed bagel with very tasty cream cheese.

    Recently opened, Nasa cafe is a play on words between the space group and the name of the owner. Inspired by themes of space, the names of the food items introduce words like, astronaut, space etc. almost Disney-esque as the names correspond to everyday meals. The cafe lends itself to be almost a hybrid between a deli and a panera bread with the overall aforementioned theme. Taste: 3.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Value for money: 3.5/5 We had: 1. Salmon spread sandwich - I was expecting a salmon cream cheese spread, but they gave me smoked salmon, which was a pleasant surprise, a part of me wonders if it was a mistake 2. Astronaut's combo - this was pancakes, hash brown, bacon and eggs. Think of the McDonald's breakfast combo, it tastes just like that 3. Signature iced pistachio latte - tasted watered down and didn't really taste the pistachio 4. Aloha Açai Smoothie - there was a hint of açai, but unlike other açai smoothies, this too felt weaker than it should've been Perhaps it's a testament to how new it is, but the staff is still learning the menu. I wish it all the best with its launch!

    Incredibly friendly bunch, breakfast is outstanding, the lattes are delicious. The interior is fun and lively... And the hosts behind the counter are the most!

    Nice staff, good selection of beverages including coffee, juices, and smoothies. And this was only their soft launch! Cute inside.

Didn't go to the rest of the store so I'll come back & review that. My experience was yesterday was amazing. I love going to the Harry Potter store.

You got clothing, accessories like house colored ties, socks and hair bows, wands, housewares, books, toys etc. There's also a small section for New York exclusives like t-shirts, mugs and socks. Design is black and gold with the words Harry Potter New York on it. I got a pair of socks for $8.00....not bad. For those who live near a Universal Studios, you will see some items here that they also sell in the theme parks. There's also a small cafe area for your pastries and drinks. My friend got a mini sized "happee birthdae harry" pink cake + pumpkin juice. I had a sip of the pumpkin juice and it tasted like thick consistency apple juice. It's not bad but it's not something I would personally order. When it comes to the food items, think novelty over quality. It's good for the 'gram, ya know? There's one single bathroom is located on the second level. Be sure to check out the Dark Arts/green Slytherin room. Plenty of photo ops in this store.

Rupsi is the owner and she is so adorable; truly passionate about providing an artistic space that promotes good energy. I love that about her. Had the pleasure of meeting her during my visit. The highlight here is the coffee (of course). You need to try the Turkish coffee. I forgot what kind of latte I got here but it was great. The friend I went with got a chai and he loved it too. The design of the cafe is so intentional... the decor shows Rupsi's desire to have a space that radiates good vibes. I'm obsessed with the fact that she has in-house DJs playing to make your coffee trip a unique and pumped up one. I had to stop myself from spending lots of money here because the jewelry and accessories that she has in store are sooooooo cute lol.

    This is a tiny coffee shop that mixes in with art and music in the East Village. They have dj sets…read moreI think on weekends. They also have a little section where you can purchase jewelry, coasters and keychains just to name a few. There is some seating here to enjoy your coffee at. They have a few food items too, but I did not get food. I tried the Turkish coffee and an iced latte. The Iced latte was very milky. The Turkish coffee I really only got because it comes in a beautiful pot/cup. It is not something I would think I like but I was wrong. I liked it more than the Iced latte. I was shocked. Their cups they have here are cute as you can see in the pictures. It is a good vibes only place. If I am in the area I would deff come back and try out a different drink and give it another chance.

    So the tiramisu spot is Cafe 2BY2, and I believe they do serve food, but honestly, we didn't go for…read morefood. We went there for one reason and one reason only: tiramisu. My mom knows I love tiramisu, and she had been wanting to take me because they have so many different flavors. Of course they have the original, but they also have pandan coconut, passion fruit, matcha, lychee, and a bunch of other flavors. And yes, I did post a picture of that display case because it is so cute and looks amazing. The whole spot is really cute and quaint. Definitely one of those places where you can sit in, chill, do some work, and just enjoy yourself. I love anything cutesy, honestly, so I was already sold. For drinks, my mom got the Dalgona coffee, and I got the pink guava latte. Both were really good. The coffee was made really well -- smooth, balanced, and just really enjoyable. Now for the star of the show: the tiramisu. Baby... that tiramisu is a HIT. I got the jasmine matcha pudding tiramisu, and my mom got the pandan coconut. Mine was so light and fluffy. You could taste both the jasmine and the matcha, but neither flavor was overpowering. Sometimes matcha desserts can feel too earthy or heavy, but this was perfectly balanced. It gave exactly what it needed to give. My mom's pandan coconut was really good too. You could definitely taste the coconut, and it was just really smooth and well done. One thing I thought was super cool is they actually have this little menu book that breaks down each layer of the tiramisu and explains what's in it. I meant to take a picture of it because I thought that was such a thoughtful touch. And what I loved most was how light everything felt. You know how sometimes you eat dessert and immediately feel heavy and lowkey guilty after? None of that here. It was light, airy, flavorful, and satisfying without feeling like too much. You could actually savor it and enjoy all the different flavors without it being overwhelming. They also have a full coffee and tea menu, so there are definitely more drinks I want to go back and try. And yes -- they take cash, which y'all already know I appreciate because cash is becoming rare these days. The service was really great too. The young lady working there was super sweet and really helpful with explaining everything and helping us choose. Overall, I loved it. I'm a tiramisu girl through and through, and they absolutely got my vote. We're definitely going back, and next time I'm probably grabbing extra tiramisu to go because it was that good.

I wish there was a multi-flavor flight option because I was struggling to decide between multiple flavors but ultimately ended up picking 3. My favorite was the pork floss one because I love a sweet-savory combo. I was surprised at how generous they were with the pork floss and how well it complemented the cream. Definitely reminded me of the Ando dessert but without the mochi component. The matcha one was a little disappointing because the matcha flavors weren't prominent at all, and if anything localized to the top where the powder was. Wish the cake component was more moist. The chestnut earl grey was better than I thought! The earl grey tea flavors weren't too prominent but present and contrasted with the nutty and sweet chestnut flavors. I wish the tea to chestnut ratio was higher. The store has a good amount of seating in the back but take-out is also very convenient. Staff members were a little awkward but we got our tiramisus packed in no time.
