How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Great spot to hang for a while in the city. The empanadas were great, but pretty pricy. Iced chai was tasty if a bit sweet.

Cramped seating

Reviewers mention that the cafe is very small and seating is limited.

Maybe I went at a bad time because I did not like my coffee. at all. I ordered a coquito latte and it had no flavor. I'm so disappointed in spending $11 on a coffee that I couldn't even force myself to drink

2★ · 2025-12-18

Hot coffee was room temp and so sweet it was undrinkable. I threw it away because it was so bad. Had to remind them about a food order of empanadas because no one ever got them for us. Empanadas were dry and very average. Would not go back.

Good for

  • Trying unique flavored lattes
  • Friendly customer service interactions
  • A quick, casual coffee stop with fun decor

Avoid if

  • You are looking for budget-friendly coffee
  • You need ample or guaranteed seating for groups
  • You prefer traditional drip coffee without specialty add-ins

Had the pleasure of getting the horchata latte as well as the dulce de leche latte, both made by Nick! Me and my partner love this place—every time we’re in the area, we can’t resist! Couldn’t recommend more!
