Charming U District cafe for Lebanese-influenced waffles, flatbreads, and warm hospitality; great for breakfast or a cozy study break, with mostly excellent feedback but a few cleanliness and drink-quality outliers.
Scorpio Cafe delivers exceptional food quality and warm, personalized service that make it a solid neighborhood favorite, but food safety concerns warrant caution—roach sightings reported twice undermine confidence despite otherwise strong execution. Consistency shows occasional variation in drinks and execution, while the modest, intimate setting lacks destination-level appeal. Worth visiting for standout waffles and Lebanese-Mediterranean comfort food, but cleanliness issues prevent a higher grade.
One caveat: Isolated but serious cleanliness reports (roach sightings) in two reviews; monitor recent feedback
