I've basically tried the whole menu at this point and everything has been amazing. The mango matcha is SO good, and all their lattes are great too.

First, street parking only but don't let that deter you from coming coz every inch or foot that you spend walking to this place is all worth it. Secondly, love the ambiance. Reminds me a lot of those ikazaya pubs in Japan but a little more chic and modern. They have bar seating of about 10 and 6-8 tables inside. But they also have outdoor seating. So I came at exactly 11 am and I was the second guest and they sat me at the bar. By 11:30 am, the entire resto was full, not granting it was a Saturday morning but people prolly got smart to come here early before the lunch crowd gets bigger. So for the food, I had to order their Hayachi Omurice and Chef Soichi's Chicken karage and both were BOMB! 11/10 each! Love the flavor of the rice and nice touch of thin slices of meat and the egg was perfectly made. I just wished there were heapings of those egg. The sauce was slightly tangy but love the flavor. The other star of my meal was the karage. Prolly the Top 2 karage I've had. I liked how they sliced in lengthwise and there not too much coating. And it wasn't oily and very juicy inside. Well seasoned and it came with lemon wedges and kewpie mayo. All I did was sprinkle some Nanami Togarashi for an added umami flavor. Overall, this should be on your top 10 restos in San Diego. Service was excellent, the servers were all friendly and always smiles!! Kudos to you guys!! I'll be back for sure!!

Absolutely loved this place! The ice cream is incredibly smooth, rich, and full of flavor clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Every scoop tastes fresh and perfectly balanced, not overly sweet. The macarons are just as amazing: crisp on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside. The shop itself is clean, bright, and inviting, making it a great spot to treat yourself or stop by with friends. Special shoutout to Diana for being so kind and helpful her great service really made the experience even better. If you're looking for top-tier ice cream and beautiful desserts, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

We stopped by this lovely French bakery in Coronado and were absolutely blown away. The macaroons were incredible--especially the espresso and caramel--and the croissant and pan de chocolate were perfectly flaky and delicious. One of the best surprises was discovering they use French flour, which meant even our gluten-free family could enjoy some treats without worry. Such a rare and special find! The staff was also wonderful--so friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. We're already planning our next trip back to pick up more goodies. Highly recommend! read more
