    I really wanted to like their matcha but... I just don't. Maybe I'll come back in the future and give it another chance. The matcha tastes powdery and since STARDUST is a more health-forward cafe, they use coconut milk by default which is.. meh to me. I thought the churros were really good. Ambiance is nice and is more for students it seems. Everyone is working away on their laptops. Workers are friendly and if you dine in, they serve you your drinks and meals. Ordering is simple, they have some iPad kiosks and you grab a number.

    Banana cream matcha
    Amy C.

    For a place that has a lot of different flavors, I was a bit skeptical. I got the banana cream matcha and my friend got the reg matcha. Unfortunately, was super disappointed in both drinks. The banana cream was good and did not taste artificial, but it tasted very watered down with the matcha. The reg matcha was grainy and very watery. For such a wide variety of flavors offered, the base (in this case, matcha) needs to be solid. I did not try the food as it was pretty pricey ($15 for a mushroom toast )

    Radiance Açaí Bowl
    Eric S.

    I've been really into açaí lately and my friend raved about the bowls at Stardust. Pros: Really nice, roomy cafe that has some very quiet, respectful, studious occupants. I honestly have never been in a populated cafe with such a low noise level. The menu selection, especially for açaí, is VAST. like more so than standalone açaí shops. Cons: The açaí wasn't bad, like a 7/10. But compared to some other locations, I was a bit disappointed. The passionfruit and "blue" (some sort of artificially colored blue syrup or yogurt), is really too sweet. It's also just called "blue", which my girlfriend found funny but there's no elaboration beyond that on the menu. It's definitely not a blue spirulina from what i can tell, as they specify on other items on the menu. ordering is kiosk-based, and the staff generally seemed nice but it did feel a bit curt when i asked a question about the order numbers that the kiosk asked me to place at my table for staff to see. They do in fact not bring the order to your table but just call out the number, which is fine but the kiosk message is rather misleading. Mine was for takeout though, which confused me even more with the number and table service blurb that popped up when i finished ordering. Parking is available next to this and the Jack in the Box, which is actually great, but it's kind of hard to tell on maps, so i do recommend just driving directly here and turning in right before Jack. Stardust has a fun menu selection and a good ambiance overall, but I probably wouldn't come back.

    FLAVOR (3/5): Came here to try their matcha but tell me why early in the morning they don't have any matcha at all. Ended up getting their black sesame milk instead because I don't like coffee. The black sesame does have a nutty toasted flavor but it eventually got watered down really quickly. INSTAGRAM WORTHY (4/5): Cute cafe style, decent for work. Lots of seating. SERVICE (3/5): Drinks actually took a long time despite at least two people working. Not a pop in grab a quick coffee and go type of vibe. TAKEAWAYS: Would come back to potentially give their matcha a shot. No outdoor seating.

    10/10 I ended up getting the new ignite açaí bowl and the black sesame coffee which was super tasty. I was surprise that I ended up liking the black sesame coffee because I normally don't like anything with sesame seeds. But this gave it such a vibrant nutty taste that wasn't over powering. This is definitely my go to place to study right before finals week. And they have great music taste to whoever's playlist was on yesterday :)

    I love the unique specialty coffee/matcha menu, and all of the fun toasts and acai bowl options! I got the strawberry collagen coffee and the mushroom toast, and it was pretty good. No notes for the mushroom toast, and the strawberry flavoring of the coffee was super tasty. Espresso was a tad bitter but the strawberry helped a lot. I would definitely come back here and recommend it! I will note though that at the time we went it was pretty busy and it took a while to get our orders and there wasn't a lot of seats available. So maybe not the best option for a quick coffee, but a fun place to come catch up with friends

    Banana bloom coffee and ham and cheese croissant
    Zaryn C.

    The barista was very informative and had some good suggestions. I like that they assign you a seated area. It's a good place to hang out while working on your laptop or catching up with some friends. It was a little pricy, but id go back

    Harmony Bowl and Black Sesame Coffee
    Tiffany N.

    Second time back and this time I brought my friends since I kept raving about Stardust to them! - Service: they were EXTREMELY BUSY but were quick on their feet and very nice. I think they handled it as effectively as they could with 2 servers both serving and making drinks. - Ambiance: one of my favorite study spaces! Many tables with pets welcome!!! There is a corner in the back with wooden seating that is very comfy! Lots of outlets as well. - I had the coffee with avocado and it was delicious! My friend had the strawberry match and strawberry guava and finished both before I even finished mine. Flavorful, just sweet enough, and caffeinated. Will be back soon :) FYI lots of parking! There is retail parking to the right of the cafe.

    B.A.E. Area

    Very busy on a Saturday morning, I stopped by on one of my first weekends in the area. We got the Adaptogenic mushroom toast, B.A.E. Area sandwich (soft scrambled egg, american cheddar, mayo, bacon, avocado on soft bun), Strawberry Collagen Matcha and the Purple Moon which is ube taro, milk, double shot of espresso. I loved my order, but the food portions were really small for the prices. Great drinks, amazing vibes. I'm new here, send me recs.

    Passionate Mango Matcha
    Nikkomae S.

    Wanted to chill at a café in San Jose and found this place near SCU. Parking was pretty convenient. This cafe is below an apartment or condo complex. When I came in, they were pretty busy. There were only 2 people working behind the counter so I had to use the self serve. I think it was the lunch rush so just take note of that. I ordered the passionate mango matcha and house Margherita pizza. The drink was actually petty good and not overly sweet at all. The pizza was a good size, I couldn't even finish it. I also appreciated that the sauce was on the side instead of it being on the pizza itself. All in all this cafe is a good place to visit. They have a good selection for drinks and food. Hopefully they have more staff than just two people, i think it will help the load of the work and people don't have to wait 10-15 minutes for a drink.

    Purple Moon iced oat milk $7.25
    Lizzie S.

    I came here Monday morning and it was so cool how it filled up. A seat became a hot commodity. You order on a kiosk, pick a number, and take it to your table where they then deliver your order (if you're eating in.) I enjoyed my Spam I am breakfast sandwich--particularly the bread, cheese, and spam! Not sure how healthy it was, but I knew that going in. The Purple Moon iced oat milk ($7.25) was rich and creamy. I thought the taro flavor could've been stronger. Interior is a light and airy from the large windows, but also kinda clean and sterile. Could use more artwork. Service was fine.

    Jenny P.

    Not my favorite place for matcha, I personally wouldn't get again. I haven't tried the rest of the stuff, so maybe their other stuff is better. However, their service was really quick and they were helpful when we had questions. The place is a nice study area. There are minimal outlets, but the ambiance itself makes it a good study place. Would come back here to lock in.

    Vicky L.

    Came here as I needed an hour to get some work done. Really cute vibes and lots of tables and chairs. Everything is very automated, I came in, ordered from a kiosk and grabbed a table number and someone just dropped off my matcha at my table, didn't have to talk to anyone. I just got a regular iced matcha latte. It was okay....didn't really have a strong matcha flavor and a bit watery. I feel like I would come for the vibes but not so much the matcha. I would like to give their coffee a shot next time too.

    Could you please add a sugar level option for the purple moon latte? Thank you!

    Do they offer blender as an option?

    I've never seen a blender option, but I haven't been there for a couple months. Their matcha is delicious though, on the rocks, of course hee

You can get it more or less sweet, but I did the normal sweetness and it was perfect. My friend got an egg cream latte with less sweetness and she wished she got normal sweetness. The phin croffle was nice and crispy, and you can choose a cream to go with it. I got the salted cream and it was the perfect choice. I went on a Saturday morning and there were many people chatting and/or working on their laptops. I think it could be a good place to get some work done when it's not too busy.

Their drinks are on the thicker side. The ambiance of the cafe is great. At 10am on a Saturday, there were still enough seats to sit with a friend or get some work done on a computer. I recommend the banana matcha. I also recommend full sweetness. Since they specialize in Vietnamese coffee/style of drinks, full sweetness will give you the best flavor. I tried less sweet on the egg cream coffee, and without sweetness, the egg cream lacked flavor. In terms of drinks, I wouldn't say they have the best Vietnamese coffee/matcha in the area, but they're pretty solid. Overall, this cafe was nice to experience! Parking can be a little bit tricky on weekends, but there's street parking right outside of the parking complex if needed. It's also located near the Pruneyard, which is lovely if you're looking to grab lunch of go shopping afterwards.

    I've been here a few times, and I honestly don't know why I haven't reviewed this place yet…read more The moment you walk into Manresa Bread, you're greeted right away. The space has a modern yet warm feel with beautiful natural wood finishes, fresh loaves of sourdough lining the shelves, pastries displayed in the case, and a mix of large communal wood tables, regular seating, and high-top tables. It's the kind of café that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. The staff was friendly and helped us choose both a pastry and our toast. They were also happy to customize our order--we asked for the levain sourdough toast with butter instead of the usual olive oil. That toast was absolutely divine. The sourdough had the perfect balance: chewy without being too sour, with a crust that was crisp but not so hard that it fought back. Easily the best sourdough toast I've had in the Bay Area. If you come here, this is the one thing you have to order. The only disappointment was the butter. They serve French butter, but for an extra $2, the portion was tiny and honestly nothing special. I've had better butter from Whole Foods. It didn't take away from how incredible the bread was, but it wasn't worth the upcharge. Their Kouign-amann is also one of the best I've ever had. Instead of the typical flat, flaky style, theirs is taller with countless buttery layers that create an amazing texture. The cappuccino was another highlight. It had subtle notes of orange peel, whiskey, and cardamom, making it unique. The latte art was beautiful too. Overall, Manresa Bread is one of those cafés that makes you want to sit down with a laptop or a book and spend a few hours there. The only downside is there are no power outlets, so come with a full battery if you're planning to work. Must orders: Levain sourdough toast with butter and the Kouign-amann. Both are worth the trip.

It's like an unobtainable quest but whenever I have the chance to fill that empty void, I do so by randomly sampling. So what makes a good empanada? To me, I look for a buttery and flaky outer shell. This should not be overly oily or dense. The dough ratio should not overpower the filling and the empanada should be able to hold the stuffed contents well. I personally gravitate towards savory fillings which should be moist but not soggy. Best Artisan Empanadas menu offers a long list of drinks ranging from espresso, teas, lattes, frappes, smoothies, and alcoholic drinks. The empanadas come in savory and sweet options. These can be purchases as is or served with sides, turning the item into a full blown meal. There are 4 different salads available for those who want a healthier alternative. As a quick snack and first attempt of trying out BAE, my sister and I made the purchase of: *Mango Tropical Shaker *Chicken & Mushroom Empanada *Traditional Beef Empanada *Argentinian Chimichurry Sauce The empanadas are amazing when it comes to the dough standpoint. Bae has the recipe down to a T and will make even the toughest eater a fan! The chicken and mushroom empanada was exceptionally delicious- creamy, flavorful, and very tasty. I would have easily grabbed another if we didn't already have plans for our next bite. The traditional beef empanada was good but the raisins totally threw me off. The plump, overly sweet raisins weren't a good combo with the salty olives according to my tastebuds. Again, this was still very doable but I made sure to remove each raisin I came across. The mango tropical shaker was okay, just a little too sweet for me. 5/5 stars for BAE's empanadas. I eagerly look forward to trying the panzerotto [pizza], chorizo, and assorted breakfast empanadas. Parking is disastrously busy so come here with patience- it'll be worth all the hassle. I promise!

The flavors in both the Beef and Lomo was perfect with the seasoning and what was surprising is the Mango Chutney which made it even more tastier; it had a sweet but tangy profile. The peach and blueberry as a sweet treat was a perfect close out to our lunch.
