    Espresso Old Fashioned
    Georguna R.

    Read a lot of good reviews from this place and decided to give it a try! It was very busy but they had a nice flow making it go by pretty quick. The food was very good and the drink was good too. Located near the strip and downtown area, give it a try!

    Hot latte and pear danish.
    Melanie C.

    I've been meeting up with friends and colleagues at PublicUs for years. One of the coolest eclectic spaces in the city that has one of my favorite lattes. This weekend I suggested to yet another friend that was staying Downtown that we meet up for a a breakfast chat. Both of us ordered the Garden Farm Benedict at $15 a piece, and shared a Pear Danish, and I got a hot latte. The staff here are lovely and, although they were super busy, our gorgeous dishes hit the table quickly. The latte was strong and delicious as usual. Unfortunately, the pear in the danish wasn't poached or anything and seemed too hard for the danish. I think we were both expecting it to be poached or something - but that's on us. The Benedict's were a little bland, I got a hint of the brown butter hollandaise in one bite, but it seemed to disappear after that. They didn't over season, which I appreciate, and we could add salt and pepper (from their whimsical shaker collection, might I add) to our liking. The PublicUs sourdough it was all piled on was great. The roasted red bliss potatoes were perfect, crispy and salty on the outside, creamy on the inside - my favorite bite on the plate. I love PublicUs dearly, but I think I'll stick to the tried and true avocado toast next time which is always reliably incredible.

    Cool Asian designs.

    The food was delicious. My husband and I and my son all loved our food. The ambience was amazing. It's very well decorated and had a nice hipster vibe. Highly recommend! My fav meeting up place for my friends and me. They have a wide selection of coffee/tea drinks, and pastries. Lots of vegan food too. I'll see you there!

    My last visit was a year ago and the vibe and the consistency is still here. Food: I had the guava cheese crossaint. amazing and filling. The brekkie supreme sandwich. Everything amazing with side salad. I had my vanilla latte, i remember tasting something different, maybe i had lavender last time. All good. Service: they bring out your food and drinks to your table if you eat for here. They also do pre bussing so that's when I def tip. Ambiance: Well lit on the corner street with a lot of natural light. Lots of wood and two small like trees in the middle of the cafe. Makes the place wholesome and makes me feel like im back in LA. I love it. That's why i will always come back here.

    It's been a minute since I've updated review for one of my fave coffee shops. It's located in DTLV and I love the fact that there is a parking lot right next door so I don't have to walk too far. And I also love the fact that they have food and delicious coffee here. Came here with my intern for a coworking lunch. The line is always pretty long here and seats are always taken, but the vibe in here is awesome. We were able to find a spot and the guy helping us at the counter was great. It's an order at the counter and take your seat spot, and they bring you out your food, which is really nice. I ordered a matcha latte which was delicious and then the orange chicken bento plate. It was soooo good! Definitely my favorite and they give you so much food. It comes with a macaroni salad, rice, and regular salad too. It's definitely my favorite meal on the menu. We also got a cinnamon roll to share as well and a blueberry scone. Both were sooo good, too. Literally everything here is tasty. The wifi is also pretty fast and works well. I love coffee shops like this one. Great spot to grab breakfast or lunch and catch up with friends, or even just come to work.

    I can't write enough great things about this wonderful cafe. It's a great place to take your time and enjoy yourself. The coffee is so good and the vanilla latte is made with real vanilla beans. The food is seasonal and the menu changes often. The pastries rotate as well and there are so many good things to choose from. They also occasionally bake bread and if you're lucky you can score some if you come early. Service is the friendliest and they bring everything out to your table. I love coming here.

    I ordered the piri piri chicken sandwich, and while the chicken was juicy and flavorful, the pesto had a bit more of a spicy kick than I expected. Surprisingly, my favorite part of the meal was the side salad the dressing was so good that I think I enjoyed it even more than the sandwich. I also tried the coffee einspänner. The cream was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness, though once I mixed it into the espresso, I wished the drink had been a little sweeter.

    We were looking for a new place since Eat! Closed, we wanted a place locals go to, for quality, service and vibe. I'm so glad I decided to take the walk from the hotel. Even tho it was over 100 degrees, I'd do it over and over again! The food was Eggcellent! I can't wait to come back and try more. Bummed I found it on my last day.

    Really loved PublicUs, so sad that I didn't try it sooner!! Super cute space, fair pricing, and lots of greenery and natural lighting. I got the death cream, chocolate chip cookie, and pecan cake. Everything was tasty, no complaints!

    Smash Avocado Toast with smoked salmon
    Jomo R.

    PublicUs is exactly what I hope to find when traveling: a vibrant third-wave coffee shop with great coffee, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. The vibe is upbeat with subtle Japanese-inspired influences woven throughout the space. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly, attentive, and impressively efficient. Despite a steady flow of customers, my order was taken and delivered in what felt like four minutes or less. A special shoutout to Bailey, who took the time to explain the menu and helped me select the perfect chocolate bar to take on my flight home. Ezra made the experience feel surprisingly personal, ensuring everything was taken care of and somehow always appearing at the right moment to refill my water before I even thought to ask. I was the VIP for my hour visit. That level of attentiveness is rare. The coffee was exceptional. My mocha latte with an extra shot was perfectly balanced--rich espresso, smooth texture, and just the right amount of chocolate without overpowering the coffee. Damian was absolutely working magic with the portafilter and steam wand. Every drink coming out looked like it belonged in a specialty coffee magazine. The pastry case deserves its own mention. It was filled with an impressive assortment of sinfully tempting baked goods, and judging by what I saw coming out of the kitchen, there isn't a bad choice on the menu. I was only in Las Vegas for a few days, but finding PublicUs was one of the highlights of my trip. If you're visiting Vegas and searching for a true third-wave coffee experience with exceptional service and food to match, stop looking. PublicUs is the spot.

    Curried Egg Salad Crossiant Sandwich
    Anne H.

    I tried this place in the morning before driving out of town as I had stayed with a friend in the area. This is on Fremont street but a few blocks away from the tourist area. I was able to park right in front so I could keep an eye on my car which was good because there were some obvious drug users skulking around. I have mixed feelings on the place but I'd give it another try next time. There seemed to be a lot of locals in the mix and the funky, fun atmosphere with plants was great. They have a very appealing menu with eclectic offerings from breakfast burrito to loco moco. For some reason I ordered the curried egg salad croissant sandwich. it just wasn't the thing to get. the crossiant was on par with Costco and the sweet chutney was jarring as I didn't detect curry seasoning. Thing was, as I was eating it I kept encountering hard cold lumps which I figured out was butter. There was a lot of it, some quite large. I asked the staff if if this was normal. One guy didn't know but another guy told me "this isn't like egg salad in the Midwest". I'm not sure what midwestern egg salad is like which I told him, but it was obvious he just meant it to insult me which is really weird. Otherwise the service was friendly at the counter. One issue with ordering is that I didn't see a menu until I'm at the register where they have it on the counter so it just kind of picked from the items in the case that I passed in line. While I was waiting I saw some very nice looking plates with beautiful slices of their sourdough bread. I took one home and it was very good and a generous size loaf. So go ahead and try the place, just try to look over the menu first.

    A cute cafe with really good coffee and surprisingly various options of brunch menu. Here for Saturday brunch after CES just over, expected for a long line, but it went pretty fast. The staff here are nice and efficient. Shalom is very nice and friendly. Love the smoked salmon toast here with mouthwatering salad (the vinaigrette dressing is great). The patty flavor is good but unfortunately overcooked and a bit dry. Gotta give the coffee here a thumbs up. Tried latte and mint and cream coffee, both are smooth and scrumptious. Pretty easy parking even on a Saturday. Will come back soon to their bento which looks soooo good from our next table.

    It tells you something when a coffee shop's food almost steals the spotlight from the coffee--lol. To be clear, the coffee is actually great, no complaints there. But what really catches you off guard is how good the food is for a place that's technically a coffee shop. Like... this is full-on café food, not an afterthought pastry situation. I had the loco moco and it's probably one of the best loco moco I've tasted it The vibe is industrial, busy, cool. Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and it's the kind of place where you accidentally come just for coffee and end up ordering a whole meal haha Asian girl verdict: Legit good coffee Surprisingly amazing food More café-restaurant than "grab-a-latte" spot

It was a generous portion with plenty of chicken and a substantial matzo balls. The broth had good flavor, although it was very peppery -- almost too peppery for me. My biggest issue was the temperature. The soup arrived warm, but I really would have preferred it served much hotter. We also tried the $11 cinnamon roll. The frosting was excellent and definitely the highlight, although the roll itself was a little dry. Service throughout our visit was friendly, polite and professional. The restaurant has a classic deli/diner feel mixed with the polished atmosphere you'd expect inside a Las Vegas casino. I especially liked the distinctive pressed-tin-style ceiling, comfortable booths and open dining room. And there was some entertainment happening outside the restaurant too. While I was eating my matzo ball soup, my was doing very well out on the casino floor. Apparently I picked the right time to have soup! Overall, Saginaw's was a good stop at Circa. There were a couple of things I would change -- hotter soup and a slightly moister cinnamon roll -- but the generous portions, good flavors and excellent service made it an enjoyable visit.

I found out about it while enjoying lunch buffet that it's a separate stand-alone café in its soft-opening phase. They offer fresh made modern Vietnamese coffee, sugarcane juice, coconut water, and Bánh Mì. I ordered the Matcha Sugarcane ($6.49), which was refreshingly delicious, lightly sweet, and balanced, even though I'm not usually a matcha fan, this was a pleasant surprise. Super attentive, friendly service, and so patience with all my questions about their drinks since it's still in soft opening phase. Don't let the strip mall exterior fool you, check them out! Location perks: about a 15-minute drive from both The Strip and Chinatown, and close to UNLV. Parking: free in the strip mall lot. Opens 7 days a week which is convenient for your craving. I was told by a staff member of Kusina Ni Lorraine Buffet that Manny Pacquiao's and Jo Joy eat their buffet every time they come to Vegas and their photos with the owner are posted on their entrance wall. I asked to see it and only saw what supposedly Manny's mother. I can't confirm it since I don't know what Manny's mom looks like so you have to find out about that yourself.
