| - This NYC kid is very disappointed.
After taking a 25 mins bus ride, I walked into Coca Cafe around 1:30pm with no wait. Was given some utensils (the first set, the napkin was stained and I asked for a new one) and was told to sit wherever I wanted which i did.
I proceeded to ask the waitress which beverage is better btw a mocha and caramel latte and was told the famous I don't care "it's up to you". Which resulted in the worst hot mocha I've ever tasted. Although I barely touched it, she didn't care to ask why. The cup with the mocha was so dirty with the chocolate running down, like seriously Pittsburgh?
I ordered sourdough toast with cashew butter and banana composite and added a egg, which was really good!
I then ordered a matcha latte that was ridiculously sweet, but still okay.
The entree of grilled local chicken and Brie on a challah was absolutely horrible. The chicken tasted like it was boiled and simply plated with no flavor or seasoning. The combination of that thick bread stuffed with so much fig jam, easily turned it into a dessert.
Finally, I don't have enough facts to say it's a race thing but I did not feel welcomed.
However, the way both waitresses treated me during my stay made me feel quite uncomfortable as though they wasn't pleased with my presence. - I'm saying this based of their interaction with everyone else in front of me. Although, I did order the most for one person sitting at the time.
This resturant has inspired me to visit more areas in Pittsburgh and write honest reviews as I'm here for school, might as well see what the food scene is all about.
Needless to say, I'd never recommend this place to anyone. Not even college kids based of this experience.
