A Middle Eastern-inspired coffee shop with unique drinks. Love the design of the shop plenty of seating to hangout and chill.

The staff was nice and the service was swift.

I ordered the Cardamom Latte, so smooth, that’s sweet and spicy with a hint of pepper and floral favors. I loved the foam art done.

Been a while since I’ve frequented a “local” coffee shop. We live around the corner and have passed by many times. Luckily, I popped in one day to try it out and I’ve been back almost every morning since. My order is an iced rose cardamom latte and wifey gets a honey Lavendar latte. These are 7/10 on sweetness and 10/10 on deliciousness. This place blows Starbucks out of the water. Quality, customer service, and presentation. This place has it all. The pastries they bring in from a local bakery are DELICIOUS. My faves are the pistachio and almond croissants. Welcome to your new favorite coffee shop!

If you want to treat yourself and splurge on dessert and coffee/ tea. The milk cakes and pistachio chocolate cookie were indulgent and decadent. They also have small Dubai chocolate bars for $18 each.

A great, modern choice for a chat and snack or some light work! Just be aware it isn't really a place for a meal.
Lively coffee shop with a sleek, youthful feel. The staff are polite and friendly. Coffee is on the pricier side but I'd argue the ambience and quality are worth it. There is a nice selection of pastries and desserts that pair well with the coffee and tea. Flavor selections are Mediterranean/Eurasian with some nice spice and nutty notes.

We enjoyed our experience here. The iced pistachio latte my GF had was one of the best she’s ever had. I had the delicious cardamom latte hot and it was perfect. I’m not one to have sugar, much less dessert at breakfast but tried and destroyed the pistachio chocolate cookie. Service was cordial and quick and the decor delightful and relaxing. A perfect taste of Pakistan in Orange County. WE WILL BE BACK!

As an avid tea drinker, I would have given them 5 stars based on their teas, atmosphere, cozy vibe and flexible hours. The only reason I’m holding back is their pastries. After trying most of their items, I can imply they are a little too sweet and expensive. The quality is still top-notch though.

BEST Latte I have ever had. Carmel/Lavender Latte. Also, had a Dubai dark chocolate/pistachio cookie…..to die for. Not sure of the young ladies’ name that waited on me, but she was terrific in directing me as to what to order to accompany my cookie. This place will be my GO TO coffee and sweet fix! Sorry the Latte was gone before I could take a photo….it was yummmmmie.

Nothing like it in all of south OC. One great aspect is that they're open till 10pm every night, and till MIDNIGHT on weekends. The drinks are terrific- some very unique and even exotic. Service is outstanding, and the staff is very happy to fill any request. Try the chai, which is as true to original form as possible. I've been to India twice, and this chai is the real thing. The warm relaxing atmosphere is not your boring cold everyday corporate coffee place with Taylor Swift blasting. You feel like you're on vacation in an eclectic district in Paris or a cafe in Covent Garden. One highlight is that they will serve drinks in beautiful classy coffee and tea cups. You can order tea service for your whole table, with pots and glasses.

This café may soon be the first American coffee house to require reservations if the business keeps up at its currently stellar rate. They have many elegantly designed tables and chairs, but they are often filled on Friday and Saturday nights, so expect to wait a little if you plan to be seated.

The reason people love visiting this café is because you can meet up with lots of your friends and socialize and have amazing drinks. Or you can sit and work on your phone or laptop. And there's more: the cakes are awesome. Ras Malai cake is epic, and they have all sorts of Indian/European/Middle Eastern varieties.
