I really wanted to love this spot. I think it's great to see small, women-owned businesses in the community, and I'm all for supporting them. The concept of churros, coffee, and sushi is unique, and I was excited to try it out for the first time.
When we walked in, we weren't quite sure how the ordering process worked, as there wasn't a clear greeting or introduction. We ended up grabbing menus ourselves, and while a staff member did approach the register, there wasn't much guidance for first-time visitors. A quick welcome and a quick run through of the menu would've gone a long way.
We tried the horchata coffee (based on their recommendation) and ordered churro bites, and two churro bowls to go. The coffee unfortunately tasted watered down with a lot of ice, and the churros, while freshly made, took about 30+ minutes to come out. I completely understand fresh food takes time, but the wait felt long considering the order size. Once we got home (just 4 minutes away), the churros were quite hard and doughy, which made them a little disappointing.
The total was about $50 after a tip, and while tipping is always optional, especially for to-go orders, I think small touches like a "thank you" at checkout can really make customers feel appreciated.
I think this place has a lot of potential, and I hope they can focus on refining the coffee quality, speeding up service, and offering a warmer, more welcoming first impression. I believe these changes could make the experience so much better for future customers.
