Cafe on the Ave

The kimchi fried rice here is seriously delicious. In a way, I think it could be considered this place’s signature dish. I also ordered an Americano, and it wasn’t too bitter at all—it was just right for my taste. The staff overall were really friendly, and it feels like they pay good attention to keeping the place clean. As expected! I’ll definitely be coming back here again.!

Had a fun visit here! The atmosphere is great—lively, welcoming, and definitely feels like a spot where friends can gather. Heads up, the music can get a little loud at times, but that actually adds to the buzz of the place. It seemed like everyone was enjoying themselves, from small groups to bigger parties. The vibe makes it clear this is a great spot for a casual night out or catching up with friends. Even with the background noise, it’s easy to have a good time, and the energy in the space just makes everything feel more festive. Totally a place I’d go back to if I’m looking for a fun, social environment with good vibes and a lot of energy.

Friendly staff. Standard college town breakfast: big portions. Appreciated the ability to sit there with my dog. The chicken on the chicken and waffle tasted like bigger versions of the popcorn chicken sold in boba cafes. Omelette was huge. Wasn't too crowded when we went for lunch on a weekday.

This place is a vibe, good music and great place to study, would have appreciated it more if the manager wasn't so "in your face" about purchasing a food item or beverage if i planned on staying for a while. I had literally not even been there for more than 10 minutes before confronted about doing so. As a first time customer, I had just started setting up my computer. Which don't get me wrong, purchasing an item is a reasonable request if i planned on staying for a while, and if using their outlets to power my laptop. Which i did end up studying there for several hours. I even ended up purchasing one of their crispy chicken sandwiches, which was quite delicious. However i would have appreciated a little more time before being confronted minutes into setting up my laptop.

This is a counter service place, order and take a number to your table, they bring the food, self bus. The menu is surprisingly large for a place that calls its self a cafe, there's some options that you wouldn't expect like bibimbap and katsudon. I got the Ave Club, it's not a normal club sandwich but I still enjoyed it. It's a big sandwich too, was plenty to fill me up fo lunch. I had also gotten an Americano, while reasonably priced, it was pretty average, you can find a better coffee elsewhere in the area.
