Perfect Strangers

I enjoyed the playfulness of the dessert, assorted random items - chips, banana bread, churros, cookies - with dipping sauce (which was good). But everything was stale! Whose bright idea was it to serve churros and greasy potato chips as the dessert, btw? I am so baffled by this choice of accouterments I'm not even mad. However, if you're giving me a gas station mix of snacks as part of a $100 four-course meal (for a lark), don't let the items go stale - the churros tasted like long extrusions of cinnamon toast crunch that were deposited onto the carpet days ago. Honestly I found the whole thing hilarious (hence the 3 stars). I am not even exaggerating.

This is a great place for a coffee. Quiet enough for a business discussion, which is great. Outdoor seating is plentiful. Breakfastacos were good. Will be back next time to get a cocktail.

So I just started spending my off time here and I like to spend my days somewhere that is quiet and friendly. I like the esthetic of the place and the music. I like talking with Joelle and she makes a great latte. Whether it's a matcha or on the menu. Idc for timely service which I have NOT had an issue with. I enter and sit at my normal table (now thinking abt sitting under James Dean pic) and open my laptop and walk right up to the bar and order my brunch lunch and guess what - Joelle is there. Friendly face, good listener and def attentive to her customer service. She'll always go out of her way and bring the latte and glass of water to you. TBH feels like she's becoming a "person to talk to" a "hey girl." Date: 3/9/23
