"this cafe is so cute! the service is great and i like the calm, quiet vibe. i ordered the iced strawberry matcha with almond milk and the nori fries with truffle parmesan. the matcha was okay in my opinion. the truffle parmesan fries were INSANE. genuinely the best fries i’ve ever had!!!! i definitely want to come back and try the coffee and a soufflé pancake. the menu is pretty big and there’s a lot to choose from!"

"I found this place on the map while searching for soufflé pancakes and we decided to try it! I'm a big matcha lover, and I'm giving it 5 stars because those matcha soufflé pancakes are the most delicious thing I've ever tasted! The food wasn't that great, but those pancakes are absolutely amazing."

"Current rating 4.1* is unjust! Should be 5*! One my friend was telling me about delicious Japanese soufflé pancakes. But since I am european we don’t really get used to eat thick pancakes so I gave a pass. Few days ago saw stories of my friend from Japan and only then I saw how these pancakes look like and could not wait to try it! So I found this place and went here from Manhattan. Menus are faded, out of date (some positions are missing and stroke out), we were waiting like 7 minutes for waiter to get an order from us. But then food was delivered very fast. My daughter really loved it, she finished her meal what is very unusual. I feel sad for this place! location is not nice… they would fit much better in UWS (my opinion)… or in Korea town (my wife’s opinion)"

"My coworker and I stumbled upon Softbite's booth at JapanFes. We ordered their Very Matcha Soufflé Pancake and Ube Sparkles Soufflé Pancake. Not only were they light, fluffy, and jiggly, but the flavor was exquisite. Despite looking very sweet, my coworker and I were pleased to know that it was just sweet enough without overloading our taste buds. After trying their booth in JapanFes, we both had to try their café in Long Island City. Upon entering, you are warmly greeted by the staff and seated amongst the open and organized seats. The floor-to-ceiling windows allow a great view of the streets and let in the natural lights. Other than their iconic soufflé pancakes, I recommend their Chicken Karaage. It is crispy but not overly fried. The chicken is hot, plump, and juicy! I tried their wasabi mayo and it packed quite the punch! My advice is to come on the weekdays. Weekends will have people swarming in, making it difficult for you (and your group) to get a seat/table. Not only that, but be sure to check out their website! They offer monthly specials. I tried their Pink Cloud Soufflé Pancake before it ended and it was worth taking an extra hour for lunch. Please note that you do have to wait when ordering their soufflé pancakes as these are made fresh!"

"I came here for lunch and thought that it was a really cute spot! Located in LIC, this cafe is a cute brunch spot offering a variety of aesthetic Japanese fusion dishes and fun drinks. Service here is relatively quick and kind. I got the corn latte, tempura udon, and souffle pancakes here. The corn latte was a seasonal item and so good— I loved the cream on it. The udon was light and a good portion. The tempura was so good. And, the souffle pancake was delicious, but I just wish it were a bit fluffier. Overall, not a bad spot and I liked it!"
