Great desserts. Definitely recommend the original basque cheesecake. Very fluffy inside. Mousse cake is rich and very sweet. Cream cheese, garlic bun is also nice.
Espresso drinks are passable. It's not a place if you're picky about your coffee. It's ok if you like milky coffee or coffee with flavorings.
Atmosphere is really cool with lush greens, cute, clean, bright, and ample seating area. Parking lot can be a little challenging. This place can get quite busy on some days. 4.25.

First time visiting this cafe after hearing all the hype about them! Their drinks are delicious and very authentic! We had a larger group and tried a variety of drinks. The mango matcha was a hit.
Their pastries were very filling, I thought their pricing was a bit expensive at first, however after cutting into the pastries, I understood why! They are filled to the brim with flavour, cream and stuffing! Donβt underestimate their pastries because they will fill you up even if it doesnβt seem like it!
Service was very efficient, even with a full house on a busy weekend. They get very busy in the afternoons so make sure you get there early if you want a seat indoors!
Would definitely come back for a quick matcha fix or a pastry on the go!

I saw some food reviews before I ordered and I could see why. They have great atmosphere and good for your social media photos. It was busy when I came and there was no seat available so I asked if they can wrap it for takeout. They were really friendly and wrapped it nicely, although they got one of my order wrong; they gave me a Bischoff croissant instead of Bischoff cream puffs. Here's my rating:
Bischoff Supreme Croissant (2/5) - very dense, inside cream didn't taste like Bischoff. Suggestion: incorporate more Bischoff on the cream or brush Bischoff-infused caramelized syrup on the exterior.
White Chocolate and Pistachio Supreme Croissant (3/5) - this one tasted better. Still dense but the cream has more pronounced pistachio flavor on it. Wish there's more white chocolate on it
Dalgona Latte (3/5) - it's alright. Not bad but also not great.
With price in mind, I definitely expected more but you also pay for the experience which justify the price. Still would recommend

Dreamy instagrammable cafe but what else this cafe could offer?
Line is acceptable since they just recently opened but the demand should've met at least in standard.
I'm ecstatic to taste the specialty in their coffee but unfortunately, they were off. Tried multiple drinks; hot and cold but nothing impressed me. I rather have the instant coffee perhaps. (TRIED: Flv/dirty Matcha, dalgona, cappucino, einspanner and sparkling aide). No dreamy aroma fragrant and missing the bitter notes. Btw, their matcha is unsweetened and you'll be asked for your option. Went twice to consider prior review.
Pastries and goodies:
Cream Puff: Overly heavy and creamy. Given it's a cream puff normally it should be lightly textured. Matcha flv was there and in good size. 3/5
Oreo seasalt cake (with blueberries): Lightly textured, soft, no oreo flv, this is a chiffon cake w/blueberries. Blueberry should be posted for awareness. Overprice $12 3/5
Matcha Flat Croissant: Crispy and flaky, rich in white chocolate flavored matcha and sweet. This reminds me of an otap backhome. Good for sharing since it comes in double palm size for $10.
Strawberry supreme croissant: Same with matcha flat croissant but in a swirl with strawberry cream. This one I'd like amongst the goods that we've tried. It has the rich, balance and refreshing strawberry taste. $12
Chocolate Nutella cookie: Rough and basic.
Overall, an advancement to excel in flavor of their drinks is a must, they need to reinvent. I would suggest requesting at least on ice (check my photos). Pastries are tempting, crumbly and textured delicate but pretty expensive.
