Open Form

This Persian café has a cool loft-style setup and a lot going for it. The design and overall aesthetic create the perfect vibe for a calm, cozy morning. Even the acoustics are on point—the music sounds great without being too loud. They also have some really comfy, traditional Persian seating that adds to the charm. We tried the Persian Tea Service (easily enough for up to four people) and a latte—both were solid. Definitely worth checking out.

Got the iced matcha latte with simple syrup and iced vanilla latte! Both were really yummy. The matcha had this hint of rose or cardamom flavor that was enjoyable! The espresso in the latte was pronounced but not bitter or burnt. The aesthetic and decor is really cute too! The employee who helped me was super nice too! Oh also note that there is not that many power outlets so come with your devices charged!

Amazing new place—slightly hidden, but totally worth finding. From the street, look for the sign and walk upstairs. The interior is beautifully minimalistic, with plenty of comfortable couches and lovely tables. The space is thoughtfully designed and feels calm and welcoming. I loved the Americano and the sweets. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely coming back.

The atmosphere and decor is amazing! It gives such a nice place to relax with so much natural lighting and a good amount of seating. I’ve come in three times now and gotten the tea set twice. The rose tea is amazing and I highly recommend along with the brittle. However, a lot of the other drinks are just okay and just since the last week I’ve noticed the items have already increased in price as well.

Very cozy place. Nice persian tea experience with traditional accompaniments. The tea was very smooth. Various types of seating available including big sit down table for a large group in the middle. It was full at the time. Also the open plan means it kinda get noisy

This is a great new spot to Capitol Hill, initially you don't see it, it's up a flight upstairs, but you come up to this beautiful open, airy and well-designed space. I really like the different seating arrangements, the drinks themselves are really incredibly good, and you can get pots of tea to share. They also have events there every week or so, and cool ceramics to buy. Definitely one of my new favorite spots.

We visited this venue after receiving a written proposal around $6,400 from Arthur, which included a $2,000 bar buyout fee. We had clearly communicated in advance (by email) that we would have guests under 21. During the visit, we were told the buyout fee was not needed since we would purchase our own alcohol and obtain a banquet permit, bringing the estimate down to around $5,900. We then noticed the 20% service fee was applied twice, which we asked to be corrected. After a long internal discussion, the owner joined and the proposal suddenly increased to nearly $8,000, with no clear justification. When we questioned this, we were told by Tara the unprofessional business owner who probably didnt have an idea of numbers: “This is my business and this is what it is.If you want to work with me, you should pay it all” There was no acknowledgment of the pricing error, no apology for the confusion, and no respect for the time we spent visiting. Being told by Arthur that prices can change because “nothing is signed” is not acceptable when errors were on their side and conditions were disclosed in advance. The space itself is nice, but parking is extremely difficult, and unfortunately the unprofessional and dismissive attitude outweighed everything else. I do not recommend this place because of challenging process of working with their team. Including the proposal screenshot for anyone interested in the place! Expect price raise of minimum $1000 in your in-person negotiations because Tara likes to earn more.

beautiful space amidst the chaos of capitol hill. love the natural lighting, makes for a productive wfh day. make sure you don’t miss the stairs up, the sign isn’t super noticeable. they ran out of matcha but the lattes are good! edit: i got to try the matcha latte, it was too milky for my liking, would recommend the tea or coffee instead.

What a wonderful hidden gem in Capitol Hill! I really enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere, the friendly service, the simple yet unique menu! The Matcha that I got was good, nothing spectacular, but I enjoyed the sweetness from the rose and syrup. Great place to work, great place to hang, I highly recommend and would come back. It's upstairs and they don't have straws.

first off all- it's aesthetic as hell. go there for chill, sleek vibes, stunning visuals, and a very peaceful atmosphere in the middle of cap hill (i mean this cafe is next door to a kpop store, the contrast is poetic). their goal of bringing persian hospitality to the cafe scene is very evident in a minimalist, cool-girl way. they totally hit the nail on the head with the visuals. With that comes the fact that the actual food/drinks they sell (as one would expect from a cafe...) are overpriced and you could find better in the city. so basically, go here for the vibes. great place to study/work/read. not the place to go if you're a coffee snob or looking for real persian cuisine. I will be back for the vibes. i do want to try the tea service (maybe my review will change, stay tuned) but my persian mom would be pissed if she found out i spent $3.50 on that bowl of "marinated" green olives... one extra point for the postcards! I love when a shop/cafe has postcards. Parking - it's cap hill, take public transport or walk instead!
