    LOVE TNK!!!!!! 100% vegan and makes your food super quick. They offer delivery services as well. I get the TNK sandwich each time and it is chefs kiss. I go here at least twice whenever I visit Modesto!

    I've been coming here for about a year now , when I first came I tried their wonton soup and tiramisu dessert and I fell in love with the taste and ambiance of the place , it's a cute little spot on the corner of downtown so it's not super hectic , you can come here and sit down and eat and watch the traffic pass by with the park across the street , they decorate very nice with cute plants and there's menus up to read everything easily , the owners are very kind hard workers , tip them when you can :) there's a bathroom + parking 10/10 spot I love it a lot , delicious food , good views & good service , they also have an inside room if you're too cold outside ! Did I mention the food is DELICIOUSSSSS

    It's all Vegan! The Mongolian beef was amazing! And their blueberry smoothie (I asked for a blueberry banana smoothie and she customized it :))

    Thai Tea

    Update haven't been here in years but was in the area and had to grab their Thai tea is so good and refreshing must try and thank me later, and the cream cheese puffs are a good snacks if I had more time I would order some of their yummy foods.

    With the Central Valley being scarce on good healthy (vegan) options , TNK is a welcomed choice. Located on Needham St. in Modesto, CA., you'll find a cute little bistro with great food, indoor & outdoor seating available. It's family run, so you can feel good about supporting your local small business. Everything is great, but I'm all in for the Mongolian Beef dish! Meatless of course. Hope you find your way to TNK !!

    Spring rolls (I preferred it with the other red sauce they have)

    LOVE this place. Can't say enough good things about this sweet and amazing cafe. Great variety of vegan food! They make the best avocado smoothie I've had! Kind and warm welcoming staff as always.

    Hard to find parking but the food was super delicious!!! Large portions, cute sit down spot! It is only outdoors no indoor seating ! Order at the window !

    I ordered a massive buffet to cater my son's birthday. The price was reasonable and there was SO MUCH FOOD! We had Mongolian Beef and Lemongrass Chicken plus chow mein and spring rolls. One of those places where you almost can't believe it's vegan! Fantastic quality. The service was amazing too. They seem like genuinely compassionate people

    Everything here is vegan. My favorite dish to order is "Mongolian beef". If you like spicy let them know how spicy on a scale from 1 to 10. I haven't tried above 8 but I'm tempted. The "beef" is seitan and flavored up!!! Mmmmmm so good with a big scoop of rice. The beef is accompanied with celery slices, a few bell peppers and onions resting on a bed of lettuce. Apparently I get a specific smile when I'm planning on ordering there because my coworker used to say I know where your going for lunch today.

    Vegan Chow Mein. Tasty.

    Are they dog friendly patio area?

    Yes, as long as they are on a leash and next to the owner.

    Are the products soy free?

    Some items we offer are or could be made soy free. For example our Mongolian Beef is a Wheat Protein based entree, while our Spring Rolls can be motified by replacing the Vegan Ham & Shrimp with Avocado.

    Is the food all vegan or do you carry actually non veg items?

    Thanks for asking . Sorry we only served vegan food in our restaurant

    I've been living in Modesto for about six years and have always passed by this place, telling…read moremyself I needed to check it out. My friend and I go on morning walks three times a week, and I finally said, "Let's try it and see what they have." As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by two gentlemen who were incredibly kind and welcoming. We headed toward the café area and it smelled amazing. I ordered an almond iced coffee, and my friend got a salted coffee (can't remember the exact name), but we drank them down so fast because they were that good. The balance was perfect--you can actually taste the coffee, not just sugar or milk like at other places I've tried. You can tell they really take pride in their shop and their craft. I'll definitely be coming back. It's been hard to find truly good coffee around here, and I'm happy to say I've finally found my spot

    I really wanted to like Caffettino Coffee Roasters because the coffee itself was actually good, but…read morethe customer service completely threw me off. I had a simple custom request and the barista's reaction honestly made me feel uncomfortable for even asking. The facial expressions and attitude felt very dismissive instead of helpful or welcoming. I totally understand not every order is standard, but as a customer you shouldn't feel awkward ordering a drink. What made it stand out even more is that I had gone to Pure Grind Coffee & Juice Bar the day before, and their barista actually asked around and tried to help make my drink the way I wanted it. That kind of effort and kindness goes a long way. I'm big on supporting local businesses, so this review isn't about being dramatic just honest. Good coffee can bring people in once, but good service is what makes people come back. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

I was Highly disappointed. Would not come back. P.s I was not told that they did not have any focaccia bread, if I was told prior to paying, I would understand.

While I typically avoid paying premium prices for coffee, I decided to treat myself and finally give this location a try. Upon entering, I was greeted by a pleasant atmosphere and placed an order for three iced coffees, which I stated clearly. When my order was delivered, two of the drinks were iced, while one was served hot. I calmly and politely mentioned that all three were supposed to be iced coffees. At that point, I overheard an employee respond in the background with an attitude, stating that I had ordered the drink hot. I fully understand that mistakes can happen--orders can be entered incorrectly, and errors are part of any service environment. However, my concern lies with the dismissive attitude and the decision to challenge the customer's request in front of them. This interaction left a poor impression, and as a result, I do not plan to return to this establishment. I will instead continue supporting my usual coffee shops.

Once inside, you'll notice the pick-up spot is right at the front, with the order counter further back. The space itself is on the smaller side, but the outdoor area more than makes up for it. Giant Connect Four and Giant Jenga? Yes, please, perfect for lounging. The menu is on a TV screen behind the counter, and fair warning: the font runs pretty small, so it helps to know what you want ahead of time. And trust me, you'll want to know because beyond the classic coffee drinks, they have a seriously fun lineup of unique flavors and specialty drinks that are absolutely worth exploring. I was personally lured in by their Banana Bread Latte from an Instagram post. Guilty as charged. You can also build your own drink, the available flavors are posted on the back of the espresso machine near the register. Came in on a Friday at lunchtime and it was busyyyyyy - two ladies running the show and keeping up like champs. My drink took about 20 minutes, which my husband wasn't thrilled about, but honestly? Totally worth it. They also take phone orders, which can add to the wait but pro tip: call ahead next time and skip the line! Now, the best part I have to shout out: in addition to the standard 12, 16, and 24 oz sizes, they offer a 32 oz Big Kahuna. This is not a drill, coffee lovers. I ordered the 32 oz Iced Banana Bread Latte and it was a solid 10/10. They also carry snacks, pastries, and a few little extras to browse while you wait. As a local, I'll definitely be back!
