No prices on the menus which wasn't a great start considering a small flat white came to 8.50. Not to mention it was terribly made (practically a cup of milk). After ordering, despite the place looking empty, the one server there decided to wait 10 minutes before even starting to make it. Don't let the fun decor fool you - it's was a disappointing experience.
I was surprised to see this place, because I had probably passed it maybe a thousand times. Their panini (Van Gogh) are delicious. It's a lovely environment full of art & decorations. Workers are kind, & I totally recommend it.
Second visit* Disappointed with my experience, Van Gogh panino was small & it was 17$, the taste was not the same as before.
This used to be me & my best friends go-to meeting spot, we would visit almost everytime we hung out. I've noticed the quality severely drop since the owners changed, we even gave it a second chance we wanted to like it that bad! Fries & crepe were cold, & just not up to par to what it was before. Portions are a joke & it's so expensive for no reason.. We've since changed our usual place to eat & will not be coming back for sure. The only good thing is the decor, but that's entirely the work of the older owners, there was not a single positive change !
Un des seuls restos ouverts le 1er janvier, nous étions heureux d'entrer nous réchauffer dans ce resto au décor éclectique. Cependant, tout fut décevant. D'une part, l'extrême lenteur & la médiocrité du service. D'autre part, la crêpe choisie annonçait de la sauce béchamel, remplacée par ... de la vinaigrette César! 😂 C'est tout dire. Sans compter que la crêpe était tiède, visiblement mal réchauffée au micro-ondes. Fortement déconseillé!
The food was very mediocre unfortunately & really not cheap for what it is. Very plain taste & not worth the money.. the decor was super cool but the place was empty for a reason.
I've been here on the Ukraine's Independence Day 2025 & it's actually a magical place. The atmosphere is unbeatable, there is so many decorations, big choice from all around the world 🌎🫶 I highly recommend to visit - for sure will come back :)
& the prices were casual for such a place!!
J'ai adoré l'endroit la décoration est magnifique on ressent une énergie apaisante.
The coffee is good
The smoothies are made of actual fruits (I think)
The deco is cuuuuteeee but me & my friends felt like we were in a simulation. All NPC. All decoration is props
The service took forever & we were alone in the shop with them.
Asked for a chai latte & barista was confused ash
Went in the back for so long. we don't know what there is… Magic tricks?✨💫
J'ai essayé leur matcha à la fraise & c'était bien mieux que le dernier que j'ai eu, mais pas à mon goût je dirais. Leurs brownies sont une tuerie & je leur donne un 5/5. J'ai aussi pris un chocolat chaud, mais c'était du chocolat chaud typiquement industriel je dirais : léger, sans la richesse du chocolat, mais le goût y était. J'adore l'ambiance & les 2 filles qui m'ont servi sont des amours. La décoration est absolument splendide.
Love their antique decorations that evoke my Eastern European childhood! The atmosphere is warm, a little chaotic, & wonderfully homey.
Big support for the amazing family that owns this place. Their appreciation for the arts & encouragement of social interactions through entertaining family & friend group activities make this spot truly special.
Fair place to have lunch, the decorations is really something else. Food is good, not fancy. feels like a café more than a bistro
Super endroit super decor, très chaleureux.
Nourriture & boisson correct.
Nourriture délectable!
Je justifie ma note de 1 étoile pour le service, car je crois fortement qu'il devrait être mentionné que ce type de place n'offre pas vraiment de service donc, autonomie totale à commander, recevoir selon ton pourboire... & se desservir... 1 toilette sur deux qui se verrous & qui a du papier de toilette...
Somme toute le décor un gros wow!!!!
5 Senses Restaurant has a lively boho vibe & a surprising amount of space-it's so much bigger on the inside! (Dr who wink) The music & ambiance are wonderful, & the art & greenery throughout the space add charm. I loved the windows & plants setup! However, once you step inside from the windows & entryway, the decor feels like walking into a museum-while that sounds fun in theory, you don't want to eat somewhere tasting ancient & dusty. So it personally didn't work as a restaurant for me. The crowded, thrift-store aesthetic, with busy ceilings & dusty hangings, felt misplaced & detracted from the dining experience. A cleaner, more cohesive look would better suit the space. Came with my girlfriends for Girl Brunch & the circular table helped us in sitting together & spilling tea. Also, has comfortable sofa couch seating that is really comfy, makes you want to stay longer, & gossip. The food was delicious, with generous portions i highly appreciate. Unfortunately, the staff was inattentive, with slow service & frequent forgetfulness. Whether it was a takeaway box, a glass of water, the bill, or even a bag, we had to repeatedly ask for the same things, which was frustrating. The aesthetic & seating made our Girl Brunch enjoyable for conversation & bonding, but the overall experience was let down by the poor service. Food: 5/5 (no complaints) Pricing: 3/5 Atmosphere: 3/5 Staff: 2/5 This place has potential but needs to refine its service & aesthetics to truly deliver the great dining experience its name suggests.
Restaurant qui ne paie pas de mine de l'extérieur mais très sympathique à l'intérieur. Serveuse très gentille. Bonne cuisine, fait maison. Les prix sont abordables. La décoration est super mignonne.
Came here for Christmas day Brunch & the place is Packed! Really great ambiance & the food quality is great also, has comfortable sofa couch seating that is really comfy, makes you want to stay longer, we ordered the Shukshuka & the vegetarian plate (Nouveau Plat Vegan) which has curry, avocado, quinoa, eggplant & it's really tasty, We also ordered these 2 seasonal fruit teas they made at the counter (forgot what they are called) but they are really good. We also ordered the Tiramisu cake & it is also delicious & crusty. The decor is emotionally comfortable, with a lot of green plants throughout the space, with cute hanging airplanes & blimp on the ceiling the staff are really friendly & it's just a really great little gem beside the Great Christmas Market. Absolutely will come back again next time, A+++
J'ai visité ce restaurant le lundi 21 octobre, & j'en garde un très bon souvenir. J'ai apprécié la diversité des plats proposés. La nourriture était non seulement délicieuse, mais aussi servie en portions généreuses. Mention spéciale pour le décor intérieur, que j'ai trouvé vraiment charmant & accueillant. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant !
I wanted to love this place - the atmosphere is really warm, the decor is quirky. I ordered the yogurt bowl mainly because it came with matcha ganache (& I love matcha). However, it came out as a bowl of enough yogurt to fill a large tub, a thin layer of granola on one side, some slices of banana & a few raspberries. I asked the staff where the matcha & coulis was & they all seemed a little confused, even when I showed them the photo of their menu. One girl put some blueberry coulis on it, which I was thankful for, but it was still pretty disappointing...
