Kaffeine Place - Bar & Restaurant

Spotted as I was driving by, stopped in and was very surprised. Korean beer and soju, lots of choices of ramen and rice bowls, even korean hotdogs. Servers were nice, the place was clean and prices were within normal for the quality and quantity. Seating is a little tight and while it did take a bit to get our food, it seems they make everything as ordered and it was fresh and hot. Lots of coffee options. Bulgogi was good but not my favorite, military ramen had good flavors with all the meat. The goat cheese bread was so good if i wasn’t full I would order another. Bathrooms were clean.

My husband and I had dinner here and loved the food! We ordered the beef bulgogi ramen, chicken bulgogi burrito and the bbq dumplings. Everything was delicious. I really appreciated the little salad served with the dumplings. And we also had their seasonal blueberry crumble Chai and that was yummy, too. I highly recommend visiting. There was no street parking available when we arrived but we found a parking garage close by that was easy to use.

I used to live near Kaffeine when it first opened and would get it all the time. I loved it! After moving away, I just came back this week and I’m so happy that it is as good as I remembered! Their spicy veggie ramen is absolutely perfect! It’s so flavorful, comforting, and packed with that same heat that I loved years ago. It’s rare to find a place that stays consistently great over time, but Kaffeine has definitely done it. (Forgot to take a pic before I started eating but here it is. So good!)

I rarely write reviews, but this gem deserves recognition for its friendly attentive staff, lightening fast service and high quality ingredients. I’m lucky to have stumbled across Kaffeine while visiting from Ann Arbor. The avocado toast was generously portioned, with red pepper flakes adding something new to the brunch staple on freshly baked bread, featuring a perfect crunch along the crust. The food was presented nicely even in a to go box. Kaffeine has a low-key vibe with great natural light and parking in front, a few feet from the door. The decor has a clean modern feel with concrete floors, open floor plan and patterned tile along the bar and half wall separating the kitchen area, while sharing it’s delicious smells. I removed a star for food because the taro bubble tea was lack luster and disappointing, and while I loved my spicy brunch, the avocado toast felt a bit too spicy for most. If you’re local and haven’t been to Kaffeine yet, you’ve been missing out. I anticipate visiting every time I’m in the area. - For any fellow Ann Arbor-ites, the quality of the avocado toast and staff were on par with Zingerman’s deli in Kerry town. Kaffeine shares the same high standards and quality service that is so rare today. Thank you Kaffeine! I look forward to returning soon.

Just had the most amazing ramen experience! The broth was incredibly tasty, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. Every ingredient tasted super fresh, and the overall flavor was just outstanding. Plus, the indoor seating was really comfortable and added to the whole enjoyable vibe. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're a ramen lover!
