Pistachio Kitchen Restaurant & Espresso Bar
A pistachio-focused cafe sounds precious until you actually taste what they're doing—the pistachio theme isn't gimmick, it's the backbone of a genuinely distinctive menu, especially the French toast. Service hits with genuine warmth (not performative friendliness), and they send you out the door with free baklava just because. The catch is real: parking on this street is a nightmare, and prices skew high for what you get.
Pro tip: Come on a weekday if you can. The friendly service moves faster when the counter isn't slammed, and you'll actually taste the pistachio clarity instead of rushing through it.
