the mozzarella sticks were still hot and crunchy on outside with stringy cheese. really impressed tbh cause I'll order those at other restaurants all the time n they are soggy and hard cheese. great chicken sandwich too, big!!

Lara P

It is really very delicious, the portion is very large, it feels like two or three people can eat together, and the price is super beautiful! Besides, I really like this cookie Ice Cream!

For the price of the food it's 5 star it reminds me of being a kid at a family's BBQ I would recommend 10/10 thanks Dejavu Cafe! I'll be ordering again
