What to order: The Essen Santa Fe Salad · pizza burger deluxe · Iced CoffeeFrom Google Maps reviews.
This seems more like a deli or bodega than a cafe. There’s a decent selection of food, prepared as well as hot foot bar. Food quality seemed decent as well, though I did not get hot food from the bar. The Essen Tuscan was decent—close enough to a 4 ⭐️ that I will round up.
I have breakfast, lunch and dinner multiple times a week (I work down the road) here and the food has always been delicious, the service has always been great, and the pricing is reasonable. It's definitely one of my favourite places to go as there's a great selection to choose from, from the deli to the buffet bar, pre packaged cold sandwiches, salads and all sorts of muffins, parfaits, danishes and a decent selection for drinks. It's definitely a place I would recommend and have for decent pri
I will NEVER step into the shop again. I was here for dinner and the food was oily and salty. The meats tasted like jerky, the vegetables tasted like soaking in oil for ages. And it’s pricy compared to the other shop nearby. If you would like to waste money on food, please come and give a try.
