★★★★★ 5.0 Oscar Fernandez · Jan 2025

This is an amazing place. If you prefer to give it 6 stars I would. Not just for one particular service, but for the combination of all of them together. The place is decorated in a simple but very tasteful way. The service is personalized and the host makes you feel like you are paying a visit to his home. The food is excellent, with a simple menu but you can feel that everything has the taste of "homemade". The portions are generous and the prices are unbeatable. I definitely recommend it to everyone who is in the area.

Cops love it. Coffee is terrible. Basically bland water... gas station coffee is better.... why serve cold pao d quijo at 8am.... bacon was raw and chewy. Made me sick... and i love the vibe but have to keep it real

Small cozy place with a good food and coffee. You can find Portuguese tradicional food for you coffee time or snack. I tried the tradicional juice (Compal) it’s delicious. The Tosta Mista which is a bread with cheese and ham taste really good. For dessert I had a Pastel de Nata, don’t miss it!

I’ve been coming here for years, and their $6 sandwiches are truly the best in both freshness and taste. If you haven’t been yet, make it a priority to visit — they’re a local gem with consistently amazing food. Their bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, also just $6, is hands down the best anywhere.

I live nearby and love this quaint portuguese coffee shop. Very authentic decorative spot to hang around in and the sandwhiches/coffee are superb. He has bakery treats, brownie & apple strudel was delicious. Highly recommend!
