I absolutely love this place, I feel like I'm In Japan again with the serenity and lovely customer service. The food is so tasty and fresh and so well priced!!! I absolutely love the onigiris and the sweet food they have in their cabinet (mostly all vegan and gluten free which is a bonus!!). If you have dietary restrictions this is definitely the place to try, especially if you like japanese cuisine. All the drinks are organic and better yet there are so many non caffeine drinks, sesame latte is my favorite!! A little bit nutty and smooth!! I absolutely love the cinnamon banana bread, the best vegan gf one I've ever had! Janken is a must try, especially if you want to come to a peaceful atmosphere filled with joy!!

Came here with 7 others (2 kids included in that) and we were blown away. As someone who has coeliac disease, I was in heaven with all of the gluten free options. I got the Waffles and was not disappointed. Also my kids decided they wanted “plain waffles with maple syrup” and the staff kindly obliged and they loved it. Can’t wait to come back!
