Tucked away on a quiet corner, this little Japanese bakery is pure magic in every bite.

Got the Melon Pan, Chocolate Croissant, Iced Matcha Latte, and Iced Latte. The melon pan was really good and I enjoyed the sweet crust. I just wish the inside was a bit more “cloudy”/fluffy (less doughy) like traditional melon pans. The Chocolate Croissant was amazing. Really liked the chocolate filling and the flakiness of the croissant. The matcha latte was pretty good, but a bit too sweet. The coffee in the iced latte was a bit too acidic for my taste. All their baked goods are pretty cheap tho!

Came here per recommendation of a friend and I'm deff glad I did! They offer a variety of items, from sweet to savory depending on what you're feeling like. I ordered a chocolate croissant and a corn & cheese roll. The corn & cheese was savory yet a little sweet and it was honestly so good. The chocolate croissant had the the perfect amount of crunch to it. You could tell both items were fresh. I also tried their Maple Latte which I really enjoyed as well. A flavor that paired so nicely which I was not expecting! They have a few tables outside so I got to enjoy my treats here. They also are very allergen sensitive which is a bonus and have a ingredients quick code sign so you can navigate their items, love this!! Check this place out! PS. They aren't open every day, so double check their hours!

This place is the cutest little pastry shop there is. Everything they serve is to die for, and the staff is always extremely friendly. It's hard to recommend just one thing here, but I have to give a special shout out to the beef curry roll for being the only item on the menu I'm not willing to split. It's my beef curry roll, get your own!

Cute little bakery! There’s 2 little two seater tables inside and one inside. I didn’t see anyone sitting, most were just picking up to go. Staff is super friendly and nice, patient with us even though we arrived 10 minutes before closing. They still had customers coming in as we left right before they closed for the day. Since it was later in the day, they were sold out of some items. We ended up getting 2 Matcha lattes, chocolate croissant and corn cheese bun. Matcha lattes tasted pretty good! I just got back from a trip in Japan so not as good as those, could use even more matcha or matcha flavor, but better than the other cafes I’ve tried around here. Corn bun was fine, would order again, did the job. Now chocolate croissant…. Love love love. The flakiness the chocolate the taste, just reallly delicious all around. The customer before us kept talking about it so we thought why not? And so glad we did. Will be back for sure!

The bread at this place is clean and delicious! It's not too sweet, and the balance of flavors is just right. Everyone is very friendly, too. The matcha latte is the best I've had since coming to the US. Highly recommend!

Staff were great at suggesting baked goods. We tried the egg deli roll, honey toast and the seasonal snowman. This was my first time here and I would definitely go out of my way to stop back in. The friendly service really makes me wish I could give this more than five stars.
