Cafe Kentaro

Buzzing Japanese-style cafe with inventive fusion dishes and a sunny location. Omurice, crab omelette, and the katsu sandwich showcase bold flavors. The hojicha latte and matcha options are nice breaks from regular espresso. Seating is tight, but turnover is quick and service is efficient. Decor is minimal with colorful plating adding brightness. Portion sizes are fair and well-executed. Expect a bit of a wait during peak hours. The coffee is decent and pairs well with most of the menu. A great option for something beyond the usual brunch dishes. Fun, flavorful, and popular for good reason.
