What do recent reviews say?
Specialty espresso and handmade cakes draw returning coffee enthusiasts, but the cafe struggles with inconsistent execution. Quality swings sharply: some praise excellent Italian-style espresso and crispy pastries; others get thin lattes and undersized portions at high prices. Access through the Japanese restaurant next door and divided staff attention compound the uneven experience.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
