    We were recommended to Cafe Alma, even though the food was v tasty, by the time we received it, it was cold (45 min from sitting down to getting the food). It definitely was not a 'wow' experience

    So many delicious choices of food, and for alternative diets, ie. vegan, gluten free! The staff are friendly and professional, and there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating arrangements. My two favorite menu items: Rosewater Pistachio Waffle and Mira's Power Bowl.

    Cafe Alma is the perfect spot to gather with friends. They offer a delicious to delight vegans, vegetarians & omnivores alike. The staff is super friendly, always willing to serve and accommodate. If you are flexible avoid busy hours for a better experience , the noise level can be very loud aking away from the experience.

    Menu was interesting! We had a variety of offerings The tofu scramble had way too much turmeric- couldn’t eat it. The tomato based baked dish was not good either Bread was delicious, roasted carrots were mushy and food came out at different times - sides being delivered after most of us had finished. The bright side was French toast was wonderful as was the quiche. I’d return for coffee and bakery offerings but probably would brunch elsewhere
