A Hidden Gem with NYC Vibes & Central Perk Charm!…read more Took my bestie to Ravine Cafe today for bunch to celebrate her birthday, and we are still buzzing. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere hit that perfect sweet spot, that classy but cozy, with a definite New York City energy. Think lots natural light with big windows, warm and welcoming lighting, and that effortless "cool" that made us feel like we have stepped into Central Perk. Only things missing is the big orange couch and the oversized coffee mugs. The menu? Bougie without the sting. We both had the eggs Benny, while mine was the Cajun shrimp (unique and flavourful), hers was the classic bacon Benny. They were both beautifully plated, yet surprisingly reasonable for the quality. What really sealed it was the service. Staff was attentive and smiley, but the owner stole the show, came by, chatted for a solid 15 minutes, and shared the restaurant's backstory. Felt like old-school hospitality, not rushed commercially influenced like most of the commercial restaurants in the area. Perfect for a brunch gathering, a date, or just pretending you are in a rom-com. We will for sure be back, and with more friends. Thank you for the great service and amazing food!

Beautiful coffee shop, terrible matcha drinks…read more Came on an afternoon to do some work and knew that this spot would have a beautiful interior. During the summer they also have patio seating just outside. Staff was friendly, the space was nice with high ceilings, and lots of people getting their caffeine here. I opted for their matcha latte which was not great, lacked matcha taste and was a pale green colour. I'm not complaining though since this is a coffee shop and I should've gotten coffee instead. Thought their other aspects of the coffee shop made up for everything else, like their free wifi, beautiful space, and good staff.

When I ordered, someone mistakenly took my drink and confused it with their order. However, the staff was super kind about it and remade my drink, with a smile on their face! As for the interior, it was very aesthetic. Definitely had to snag a picture of their set up of coffee bags! The only struggle was parking, since there's no dedicated parking spots aside from the SMART VMC (Subway station) parking, which is a bit of a pricey ticket if you're looking just to get coffee or food nearby.

Stopped in for a quick dinner and ended up being surprised at how much this place actually offers…read more Full lineup from breakfast to dinner, and then a wall of desserts waiting after. It felt like stepping into a spot where someone really wanted to showcase as much of Turkish cuisine as possible under one roof. We went with the Fajita, Ali Nazik, and Menemen with Sujuk. For drinks, I couldn't resist the Iced Turkish Coffee. The contradiction alone was too good to pass up and honestly, it worked better than I expected. Food leaned on the lighter side when it came to seasoning, but for anyone new to Turkish flavors, I think this is a solid intro. You still get a good sense of the dishes without being overwhelmed by spice or salt. Also appreciated seeing the little touches of fusion in the menu, blending Turkish flavors with more familiar Western dishes. Staff were friendly, space was clean, and the pricing felt fair for what you get. It might not be the loudest or boldest experience, but sometimes subtle does the job just right. Wouldn't mind coming back next time to explore more of the dessert options. There were so many I didn't even know where to begin.

We probably waited less than five minutes, which was awesome considering that they had a lot of other orders ringing up. It had chunks of mango, mango puree, cheesecake, and whipped cream. It was pretty enjoyable, but I think it would've been even better if I added in some mochi. The menu says it's layered with condensed milk, but the mango puree overpowered it a bit. It would be a nice touch if they could drizzle some condensed milk at the top, so that sweetness hits off the bat (at least in my opinion). Customer service was great, they were fast, respectful, and knew how to keep the line moving.

I'm a huge matcha lover, so when I found this spot I had to give it a try. I ordered a matcha with…read moreoat milk and 2 sweeteners. The matcha was very creamy and tasted high quality, which can be very difficult to find. The staff was very patient when me and my friend were taking quite a while to decide what we wanted to order, so I appreciate their cooperation. The store is very tiny, but it feels really cozy, perfect for meeting up with a friend or even hosting a study session. I'd definitely go back to try their different matcha flavours and pastries!

I tried the iced Cuban coffee and really enjoyed it. It wasn't overly sweet and had a really smooth consistency. I liked it enough to go back and order it again. I also tried the iced matcha. It wasn't bad, but I personally preferred the coffee and would choose that again. Overall, reasonably priced with good service and a nice atmosphere. I'd definitely return.

The ube cream would have been even sweeter. I also got a matcha cookie which had macadamia nuts and was a good balance of indulgent while satisfying my sweet tooth without being so sweet since the drink was sweet already. The inside so e is very industrialized looking with concrete walls but had a ton of people inside working/studying with their computers. A nice space to chill and work but the parking space is limited.

It was quick! 1 person ahead of me ordering :) So happy I got to try this place as it's been on my list for quite some time. 5/5 as soon as I took my first bite. Ordered the tiramisu, chocolate/hazelnut croissant and a Spanish coffee. All were excellent. I enjoyed the various flavours that were light yet not too sweet or overpowering. Flaky pastry, and so so fresh. The mortadella & pistachio. Focaccia was fresh and fillings were generous. I would highly recommend. Amazing bakery, if you're in the area, highly recommend checking it out.

Hyped on socials, had to check it out for myself…read more I've seen and heard countless good things about their pistachio croissant and since I was in the area I swung by to see if it was worth it. Upon arriving mid afternoon after the lunch rush, there were still so many people here. Thankfully no line up though. By around 2-3PM the lunch options were all gone (sandwiches, pizzas, etc), which is fine since I came for pastries. I opted for their butter croissant and their pistachio croissant. Both were great and delicious with the pistachio one having lots of pistachio filling. These were good but I wouldn't hype it as much as socials did - still amazing though! There's no seating and is a take out spot only. My pastries came in a paper bag with handles, no box, no wrap which was interesting. Overall, worth checking out for some good pastries in the area.
