The vibe of the place is nice & the food's good. But one of the servers made the experience uncomfortable. Imagine this place came highly recommended by peers & it's your first meal of the day, but the service ends up leaving you frustrated.

4.0

The café has a really cozy & inviting atmosphere, but it's not particularly suited for families with young kids. It feels more like a hangout spot for teenagers to socialize or meet new friends.

I tried the matcha latte - it was decent, though I personally prefer a stronger, slightly bitter matcha flavor. For lunch, I ordered the fried egg sandwich & the pork chop curry rice. The sandwich was nicely seasoned & quite enjoyable. The pork chop, while tasty, wasn't the traditional Japanese-style breaded version - it lacked the crispy panko coating you'd expect from a tonkatsu. That said, the curry sauce was very flavorful & well done.

Overall, the food was good, but the portion sizes were a bit small for my appetite.
