" I’ve been to Café Alma multiple times, and I always leave satisfied. The freshness of their ingredients is impressive, notably in their salads and brunch options. I particularly enjoy their smoothies and lattes, which are always refreshing. Service can vary—some visits are great; others are a bit slow. However, I believe in their potential and the overall experience makes up for the hiccups. Happy to keep returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very excited to try Café Alma based on the reviews and it did not disappoint. The menu is diverse, with many unique items that I had never seen before. I tried the French toast with pomegranate whipped cream, which was simply divine, and the coffee flight was such a fun way to begin my meal. The atmosphere was vibrant and the staff genuinely seemed to care about our experience. My only complaint was the wait for a table; we visited during peak hours, so I would recommend making a reservation if you're going on the weekend. Overall, a fantastic first visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" We chose Café Alma for brunch last weekend, and it was a delightful experience overall! The ambiance is fantastic, and the open-air feel was refreshing. I had the avocado toast, which was flavorful and beautifully presented. The service was decent but could definitely improve—our drinks took a while to arrive. Nonetheless, the candles on the table added a romantic touch, making me want to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Café Alma after hearing so much hype, and it was worth the wait! I tried the Turkish-inspired shakshuka, and it was an explosion of flavors; absolutely fantastic. The portion sizes were generous, and the dishes felt homely and authentic. The service was friendly but a bit slow, but they were very busy, so it was understandable. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their creative drinks and delicious food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Café Alma, and I was not disappointed. The atmosphere is charming and inviting, perfect for a Sunday brunch. I ordered the classic shakshuka, and it had a wonderfully rich flavor. The service was a little distracted, but our server was quite pleasant. Would love to see more desserts since the bakery section looked delightful yet limited. It’s a great place to unwind and enjoy delicious meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" A fantastic little spot for brunch! The décor is chic yet comfy, making it perfect for a relaxing meal. The food was harvest-fresh—particularly loved the Mediterranean salads. I also appreciated the variety offered to cater to diverse dietary needs. Slight hiccup with drink service, but nothing that impacted the overall experience. The beautiful setting and delightful dishes will make anyone keep wanting to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Café Alma has a unique charm that makes it stand out from other brunch places. The rosewater pistachio waffles were as delicious as anticipated, and they serve them with a side of coconut whipped cream that is heavenly! I also appreciated the vegan options available, which make it great for gatherings with diverse diets. The staff was friendly but a bit overwhelmed, so service was subpar at times. Regardless, I will certainly return for that waffle! " (*Curated Review*)
