Pamenar is currently pulling the best espresso in town. Pouria, the owner, is usually there, and attends to every cool detail: fresh-baked pastries in the morning, Persian treats made by Pouria's parents, curated art exhibits that rotate every 2 months or so, grilled panini for lunch, a vast loose-leaf tea selection, etc etc. This is a wonderful place to have an espresso any time of day.
