Review Summary

Overall, SoLIT Café comes across as a cozy, design-forward space with orange vine ceilings and a calm, welcoming vibe that makes it feel like an inviting garden oasis, even on cold days. The coffee earns frequent praise for being rich and well made, with lattes, cappuccinos, and seasonal drinks drawing strong notes from guests, while the food is commonly described as fresh, flavorful, and well prepared, with sandwiches, bowls, focaccia, pastries, and light bites cited as standouts. Prices are often described as premium, with some reviewers feeling value doesn't always match the cost, and a few dishes or menu items receive mixed marks. Service is typically described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, with staff guiding guests through the menu and sometimes bringing items to the table, though some readers mention a counter-order flow and a no-laptop policy that can limit work or study. The ambiance, decor, and terrace are repeatedly highlighted as strengths, and many reviews call SoLIT Café a hidden gem and a great place to meet friends or unwind, even if a small number note occasional inconsistencies in menu availability and portions.

Beautiful Cafe, customer service not that bad but my overall experience was not that great as well. The food is worth trying again, maybe.

Drinks are pretty nice, but I didn't eat anything that was particularly good - not bad either, I just don't think it's worth the price. The space is beautiful, definitely the highlight of the cafe! The staff are also very polite & kind 😊
Be mindful that they don't really allow computers, so it's not a good place to work or study.

The place is beautiful, cool music & perfect spot to work for a couple of hours. Great variety of drinks & food menu ✨? (More power outlets would be useful)

This place is definitely coffee first & food second. A little pricey but considering the area it checks out. Beautiful atmosphere inside & out, would come here again.

The location is beautiful, very well decorated with vibrant colors. The food is pretty good, but on the expensive side. Overall solid experience!

Beautiful cafe. Nice decor & had the guac toast with egg & feta. Nicely done with the choice of different breads to choose from. Love the fact that it's a no laptop/tablet restaurant.

My wife & I don't eat out very often. We prefer to save our money therefore & only eat out when we travel. We also understand that a good experience often comes with a higher price, otherwise business won't survive. My wife & I were very pleased with this beautiful restaurant. She had the grilled cheese & I had the chicken basmati rice with a fruit smoothie. The employees were nice & our orders were delivered quickly. The food was flavorful & of good quality. The restaurant was nicely decorated for Thanksgiving. The restaurant was clean & everything was very well organized. I must however mention that the bowl in which I received my rice was too high, I found it difficult to eat out of it because of the height. I'm 6'1" & still the angle to get to the food with the fork was awkward. Not a complaint, just a suggestion to sit & try it, maybe you'll find it weird too. Thank you for the excellent experience.

It was not the best latte, but not bad. The chamomile tea was so good & fresh. The cafe is so beautiful & quiet & the staff were very nice. BTW, you are not welcome with your laptop, that was a bit weird to me that you can't work with your laptop in the cafe. :)

The place was beautiful! My chicken sandwich however was not worth $23. Although delicious there was hardly any chicken.
