    Wonderful gem in Scarborough. Really enjoyed my lunch at this friendly little cafe. Delicious and fresh, prepared-from-scratch lentil soup and the iced coffee was very good too! Finished it off with a rich and yummy brownie. I'll definitely be back!

    The owners are very friendly and make you feel at home. You can tell by their interactions with their regular customers that they value good service. They also serve good food, made for you while you wait! I had their tuna salad sandwich with lentil soup.

    Went in to take a look around for my first time visiting. Looks like a decent environment, and variety of options on the menu. Unfortunately, I was with someone who detests getting food in any sort of medical facility, so didn't end up getting anything. The reason for the lower rating (would have been three stars), however, is the behaviour of the gentleman behind the counter. I went to take a photo of the menu, and he seemed irritated about it; he actually confronted me about it, and seemed to be of the impression that I was angry - he actually told me that I didn't need to be angry - despite me calmly explaining my intention. That said, looks decent overall, and wouldn't hold it against him - maybe he's just having an off day?

    Small cafe on the southwest corner of the building that has a varied menu. Went after a medical appointment and ordered a chicken wrap and a Moroccan soup. The wrap was quite average and the soup lacked flavour. I should've probably tried the Filipino breakfast. Service was ok. Pricing was so-so. Not bad choice if you have the munchies but don't expect to be wowed by the offerings.

    The food was amazing, reasonably priced but more sooooo the customer service was too par. Amazing staff and such a welcoming atmosphere..if you're in the area or the building I'd highly recommend checking it out. It's always great to support small businesses

    Amazing tapsilog made by these guys! So surprised you can get good filipino breakfast in this medical building, definitely a nice surprise.

  • 1/5 Gamer B. 1 year ago on Google
    Horrible customer service skills. Came to purchase a drink and the owner asked me to wait until. There was only other customer ahead of me and he was caught up in a conversation with one of the staff working with the owner. Very disrespectful for his tone and attitude. I decided to walk away. Also, why does one need to purchase a minimum of $10 worth of goods to use a credit card? No wonder it’s always empty in this cafe.

    Hidden gem in Scarborough. Bangsilog ( marinated milk fish with garlic fried rice), regular Canadian sausage & egg breakfast. Coffee is good too. Excellent service.

    Very nice little cafe with staff that prepares everything fresh for you. Very friendly and they serve top quality for a very good price! A highlight are their handmade and delicious spring rolls!

    This is a quaint little Cafe located in a medical building on Ellesmere east of Warden Avenue. The coffee is nice and the sandwich I had was delicious. Very handy when you have the munchies after seeing your doctor.

    Excellent service and excellent food. The couple who owns the cafe are very friendly and nice! Our Filipino breakfast was really enjoyable. Also the plants make the place really cozy. I always look forward to coming here after the doctor’s appointment.
