Review: We could smell the oils from the street as they were cooking inside. The place looked very nice and was decorated for Valentine’s Day. The massaman curry with chicken was delicious. The Thai iced tea sweet I’m very good as well. Definitely recommend this place and we’ll be coming back again soon hopefully.

Review: This is a great place to pick up some local Farm food and meet up with friends and clients. I stopped by yesterday to work with Tom R and got to enjoy a cup of delicious tomato soup. Everything here is very high quality and there are so many things to try. Thank you for offering so many local products and for creating a great space to work and meet with people.

Review: If you’re looking for an amazing Japanese restaurant in town, then check out Sakura 15! This place has some of the best Japanese cuisine around, and their Spicy Miso Ramen is one of their specialties. The ramen is perfect, with just the right amount of spice, and the char-siu pork is tender and flavorful. My friend Casey ordered the Pho, and it looked delicious! The atmosphere here is also great – it’s cozy, casual, and inviting. Overall, Sakura 15 is a great restaurant that I would highly recommend!

Review: The first words from the wonderful staff member here were,”Please let me know if you have any dietary restrictions…” Wow. I knew from that point on we were well taken care of.
There were some great options for me on Whole30. Fruit & eggs. They were delicious. I was SUPER impressed with this place and I highly recommend you check it out for breakfast + coffee sometime soon. Great for kids to play too with a special play area for them.

Review: Upon arriving at 8:15 this morning it was very quiet. By the time I left at 10:30 it was bustling and lots of conversations going on. I met with Jordan and we talked about all the food in Bloomington. We agreed that Verona is a great place and Jordan really enjoyed the cinnamon rolls, the scone, and the coffee drink. I was really happy to find out that the coffee refill was free when you are dining in. The Wi-Fi was really fast and worked well. What a great place to start the day.
