" I thought Raku Café would be just your average coffee spot, but it turned out to be a breath of fresh air! The quality of their coffee is top-tier, offering unique flavors like nothing I've ever tasted before. I enjoyed the Vietnamese iced coffee and a pastry. The blend of flavors was stunning, and I genuinely appreciated the attention to detail in presentation. However, it was quite busy, and the service could use some fine-tuning. Can’t wait to explore more of their exciting menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Raku Café based on a friend's recommendation, and the food exceeded my expectations! I went with the classic onigiri and a honey matcha latte. Everything was delicious, the flavors were vibrant, and it was evident they take pride in sourcing quality ingredients. The only disappointing note was that service felt a tad slow, which can happen during busy hours. Regardless, the quality kept me happy enough to overlook it. Highly suggest stopping in for an authentic taste! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations coming to Raku Café after hearing so much about it, and it definitely lived up to them! I ended up ordering the Tomago Sando and a side of matcha. The flavors were rich and well-balanced—the tamago was incredibly fluffy! However, I did face a slightly long wait time for my drink, which was a bummer. Still, the friendly baristas made the wait more bearable. I also appreciate how they switch up the pastries daily. This café has a great mixture of a chill work atmosphere and a lovely gathering space. There will definitely be a return visit in my plans. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my time at Raku Café! I tried their seasonal drink, a yuzu latte and paired it with their signature tiramisu. The flavors were heavenly, and it felt like I was in Japan. The staff were so friendly, and it felt like they were part of the experience rather than just serving food. However, I would recommend reservations as it can get quite crowded, which wasn't ideal when we waited for about half an hour, but it was worth every minute of the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Never experienced anything quite like Raku Café! The ambiance was peaceful and gave off cozy vibes, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. The matcha smoothie was delightful, with a strong flavor showcasing high-quality ingredients. I was also fascinated by the range of pastries available; I had the bacon and cheese puff, and it was just scrumptious! Worth visiting if you seek authenticity and delectable food in the heart of the city! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, Raku Café exceeded my expectations! A friend urged me to stop by while I was exploring Mexico City, and I'm so glad I did! The matcha latte was genuinely one of the best I've ever had—rich, creamy, and not overly sweet. I couldn't resist trying the katsu curry afterward, which was equally fantastic! The flavors reminded me of Japan. The only downside was that the place got quite busy, and it took a bit longer to get our orders. However, the staff was friendly and tried their best to keep up. Highly recommend if you're craving some authentic Japanese comfort food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came with my family to Raku Café for a Sunday breakfast, and we were all quite pleased! The milk bread used in their items creates an amazing texture and flavor. We ordered a variety of things from their menu; everything had a unique touch that delighted our taste buds. The wait staff were friendly and efficient. It was just a bit crowded, which made it necessary to wait for a table for a solid 20 minutes, but it was well worth it in the end. This café has officially made it to our favorite list!
