I really wanted to love this place. The interior design is stunning, and the atmosphere is easily one of the best in the area. The staff is also incredibly kind and welcoming, but unfortunately, they’ve been set up for failure by the management. If you’re here for the coffee, you might want to lower your expectations.
The "Italian" Cappuccino Discrepancy
I had high hopes when I saw a "6oz Italian Cappuccino" on the menu. That is the gold standard ratio: a double shot of espresso (2oz) with 4oz of steamed milk. However, when I ordered, the barista informed me their version only uses a single shot. At that point, the recipe is already compromised, and it only went downhill from there.
Technical Issues:
• The Beans: The flavor was flat and honestly tasted like cardboard. To the owners: a beautiful shop deserves high-quality beans. You can’t hide poor-quality coffee behind nice furniture.
• The Milk: The baristas clearly haven’t been trained on milk geometry. Instead of the silky, "wet paint" micro-foam texture required for a real cappuccino, I was served stiff, dry foam that sat on top of the liquid.
• The Result: Three sips was the most I could handle and the whole drink went to the trash.
Final Verdict:
It’s clear the owners invested heavily in the "look" but neglected the craft. Please, invest in better beans and professional barista training. Your staff is lovely and deserves the tools and knowledge to serve a product that matches the beautiful environment they work in.
