What people say
The Dojo Cafe has received mixed reviews from critics and customers alike. A recent review in the San Diego Union-Tribune praised the cafe's ambiance and noted that their pour-over coffee was excellent. However, a review on Eater San Diego criticized the cafe's lack of vegan options and suggested that their drinks were overpriced.
A Yelp reviewer left a positive review, stating that The Dojo Cafe had a great selection of teas and coffees. Another customer complained about slow service and said they were disappointed with the quality of their latte.
On Tripadvisor, recent reviews mentioned that while the cafe's atmosphere was trendy and comfortable, the food was average. One reviewer said their iced coffee was "...really smooth and tasty!" Another reviewer mentioned "I really enjoyed my time there."
Overall, it seems that The Dojo Cafe has some strong points but also has room for improvement in terms of menu options, pricing, and service.
