There's not enough tables but they could fit more in the coffee house and could put more tables outside. They definitely have the space for it. Overall it reminds me of Sama coffee in San Mateo. They got that turkish and persian vibe and there focus is on expensive quality coffee with persian snacks.

A super thoughtful crew who know how to make a really good tea and I'm sure coffee as well.! As summer approaches, longer days, I believe they will find it will be necessary to implement some structure around the seating Because, we found there are campers on a Friday evening, there were two young women not together and each taking a large table. ,8pm with their laptops open and only a beverage , there was a line of people people searching for tables I would suggest or some sort of signage that they could share a table, not necessarily sit on top of each other, but on opposite sides with an empty seat in front of them, two (strangers) people at one table with two or four chairs. It's not uncommon practice. In cafés. What was happening was that groups of four were having to share tables for two squishing in, I just thought it was a little thoughtless of those two customers to keep their heads down, and they knew precisely what was going on around them, people were giving up tables and shifting around, and neither of them moved or offered to share. There's a polite way to manage those kinds of situations. Or signage on tables. I saw a group of four guys walk out because there was nowhere to sit that would've been a substantial tab There's a way to make people mindful of that included there were other locations for these two individual people to move. Since their heads were in their laptops, sitting across from a stranger, would've been like being at the library anyhow where we do share tables. I noticed there was a seat on the sofa side, or they could've shared a table It would have left two large tables available for people who were in line, groups of people who were in line Something to think about to the owners of Sana! I could see the frustration in the faces of the people waiting.

    This is location holds a very special place in my heart, as it has become a weekend tradition…read morebetween my fiancé and I to come here and have breakfast and coffee. We have come now semi-consistently for the past month or so and let me tell you... no regrets. The service here is excellent. The staff is not only cheerful and super helpful when I'm indecisive... but they are often quick to help and very efficient with keeping the tables clean and ready-to-go for the next set of individuals to sit and enjoy. If ambiance is your thing...the decor is very modern and inclusive. It doesn't seem to change much but, their signage is always bright without being too "loud." Whether you sit inside or outside the experience is a great one no matter how you look at it. And of course, the pièce de résistance is the food and drinks! While we stay fairly regular with our order... he gets the chorizo breakfast burrito and I, the egg sando... we always mix it up with drinks or the pastry we share. The seasonal rotation so far has yet to disappoint... and honestly, I love coming back each time to try something new. 11/10 highly recommend, I'll definitely back and think you should try this spot if in the area!

We are definitely coming back for that again. It's probably the best part of our experience here--second to the espresso I tried. I ordered an iced triple espresso w oat milk and it was the real deal. Baristas did great. It might've been a more positive experience had our order been taken by a more knowledgeable and customer centric staff person. Suggestions for brand new customers is always helpful when trying to decide what to try. And I was thrown off a little after seeing cold drinks served in actual glasses--so I went back to the register girl to ask her if I should've asked for my order to go since I noticed the drinks served in glasses on the counter--it was our first visit. And she said she ordered it to go, but that still didn't clarify if it would be served in glasses or Togo cup. She was just minimal at best in reassuring me that I didn't have to worry. One tip of advice for her: Suggestions always attract customers to return when they're welcomed to try something that's a favorite or best seller of the house. She wasn't as helpful as a lot of coffee shop cashiers can be upon discovering new customers who are a little overwhelmed with ordering from a large menu. Ambiance was good, this shop is on a popular block surrounded by busy eateries. It's located in a very convenient location-- surely there's no lack in attracting customers. Service could definitely improve with front cashier staff based on our first impression today. Right people right seat is the bottom line in the service industry. There's always room for improvement.

The inside has such a pretty aesthetic, with a few inside tables to How to order is with an iPad kiosk, so card payment only. The menu selection is nice and simple, offering matcha and hojicha options. There are also small desserts like cheesecakes, cake rolls whole or slice and tiramisu. This tea shop is nice to go to after work to relax and decompress for a bit. Items my coworker and I ordered- * Hojicha Strawberry Latte - light sweet, soy milk and less ice. Rating 5/5 * Hojicha Cake Roll slice. Rating 5/5 * Matcha Latte - light sweet, oat milk, less ice. Rating 5/5

    Cute place that is tucked away behind Drunken Monk izakaya. I came here for a mommy daughter date…read moreday to indulge in some dessert and card games. Decor is cute but sleek, vibes are calm, bar seating by window and a few small tables with seats. Ordering is fast at the kiosk front desk which doesn't seem to have a cashier. Lots of tasty drink options with milk choices and customizable sweetness and ice level - much appreciated! Cakes were delicious and filled with freshly whipped cream. We had the hojicha and biscoff ones. Not incredibly busy - a lot of orders were takeout. Cons: A lot of things were out of stock by 1pm but maybe this is due to Mother's Day. Pricey but the items were high quality. Store is a small footprint with limited utilities (no WiFi, bathroom was temporarily out of order). Parking is very difficult- it's on el Camino so the cars are unforgiving if you're trying to parallel park, and the road parallel by a block is not much better. It has an alley and a very cramped space in the back for a lot. Expect to walk.

The…read moreinterior is both spacious and cozy at the same time, and there's just so much to look at - plants, art, vintage, animal skulls, cool furniture, mannequins, etc. Overall, I like this place more as a plant shop and less for coffee. I've purchased a little spider plant and an alocasia polly, which have both been great. The employees are knowledgeable about plants and give great recommendations, especially regarding succulents. They also have a fun selection of cards and gifts by local artists, although some of the prices are a bit unreasonable (like $40 for a tiny planter pot). The coffee shop is fine, but less exciting. Most recently, I tried the Bicerin off their seasonal specials, which was a Cortado with Nutella. I thought the Nutella would be somewhat mixed in for sweetness, but it was literally just a teaspoon of Nutella in my drink. I've tried their Chaga Matcha in the past, and it was also just okay. Will return for the plants and ambiance!

I was really hoping to try their morning bun or monkey bread, but unfortunately, both were sold out. However, I did get to try the Kouign-amann pastry and a peanut butter cookie. The peanut butter cookie was amazing. It was not overly sweet or intensely flavored, with a lovely peanut butter cream filling between two cookies. We also ordered two cappuccinos for my parents and a caramel latte for myself. The total came to about $28 for everything, which feels pretty reasonable for the Bay Area. The cafe itself had a really great vibe. Very cafe-like with a unique decor that blended old-school bakery charm with modern touches. Parking was a bit of a trek; we ended up parking quite a distance away on a residential street to avoid paid parking and walked a bit to get there. It's definitely not the most convenient location for parking. Despite that, the place was packed, which is always a good sign! The service was great. They took our order efficiently, and while we waited, it was clear this is a very popular spot. I'm determined to go back and try those morning buns and monkey bread!

My only recommendation would be that you use less chemicals and Lysol in your cleaning throughout the day. We all love a place that's definitely sanitized and clean and safe to eat at, but I also want to walk in a place like this and smell chocolate and cinnamon, coffee and smell yummy food. Only thing, The first scent when you open the door is cleaning solution. There's a lot of like a Lysol type smell and it's really overwhelming throughout the place. You don't get like that warm cozy sense it's a little cafeteria cleaning Lysol Scent. Which we all appreciate!! let's be clean! but maybe do an air purifier or space it out don't use so many chemicals throughout the day. , but do your main chemical clean in the morning and at closing.

Located in Downtown Redwood City, so parking can be hard to find (paid only which sucks, $1/hr). SERVICE: Barista was friendly and coffee came out quick. There seems to only be 1-2 people working. FOOD: I got the Brown Sugar Espresso. It comes with 6 pumps of brown sugar and was the perfect sweetness for me. A little more flavorful than the Starbucks version and cost ~$8. I also got the 3 Cheese Grilled Sandwich (~$11) which was tasty, but probably wouldn't order it again (would stick to drinks and eat elsewhere).
