Located in a historic and old building this new location is beautiful. Very high ceilings, beautifully lit lounge, large windows, and comfortable seating makes it a relaxing place to have coffee or lunch. Situated in the business district of Karachi it provides a distraction from work and the ugliness of the surrounding corporate offices. The staff is well trained, very polite, and courteous. But would be nice if the company spent some money on giving them well made uniforms. Dark brown shirts and black pants make them look out of place. If you can spend millions on renovating this place, surely you can invest in staff too. Now lets come to the food.I ordered a breakfast sandwich with house salad. It was good but I wouldnt say that it was great. The taste was ok, portion size was ok, presentation was good, price reasonable. Spend some money on proper napkins. The tissue napkins were very low quality and I had to ask for more because they were so tiny.Overall score:10/10 Ambiance7/ 10 food9/10 Coffee10/10 staff

Ordered Lasagne. It tasted like I was eating raw tomatos mixed with minced meat. Its taste was everything but Lasagne.

Nice location, lovely restaurant with plenty of parking. However the mid level rating is that food is not as good as the one at other espresso restaurants. They certainly need to improve on their menu and food quality.

We finally got time to visit and have lunch at this espresso but utterly disappointed with the service as the food was fine but quite late. We ordered different items like chicken Alfredo, Mexican steak, herb chicken steak, mint lemonade, margaritas, coffee, wraps and prawns but the food wasnt amazing as expected. Ambiance is good and refereshing and space is quite small for larger groups but its a refreshing place to visit in chundrigar road where u have very less options for eating out.

A breath of fresh air to the food scene of I.I Chundrigar Road area. Espresso has brought their signature coffees, snacks and meals to the downtown and it has definitely kept the bankers away from their desks for extended hours. I just wish they keep open till late.

I am a regular customer that received an order for lunch 50 minutes late. When we asked for it to be canceled they presented the order immediately pleading for it to be packed and paid for. After we paid, it turned out the order was incomplete yet they had charged the full amount. BE VERY CAREFUL TO ASK THEM HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE, before you place the order

Location: I.i.chundrigar does not have many dining options with reasonable ambience. Opening up of espresso is a fine dining option so close to the main business / financial district.Ambience: decorated in colours similar to the other restaurants of the same franchise, the setting is pleasant and makes you forget you are so close to the hustle bustle.Food: We were a group of four women and one child. For starters we had the chicken strips with sauce which was average. However, our mains which includee a roasted chicken sandwich, a smoked chicken pizza, beef burrito were par excellence. The burrito is especially worth mentioning. My Husband had it the next day and he too agreed that the filling and the sauces were absolutely divine, leaving the taste buds asking for more. We had an affogato and a hazelnut cappuccino which were both really good.Parking: there is valet parking available. If you reach by 1:20 pm for lunch you should comfortably be able to find parking close by yourself.Wheelchair access: there is no ramp or other facility catering to persons who are wheel chair bound.Kids menu: there is no separate kids menu.

Espresso is located very close to Suzuki Mandviwalla Motors on the road behind arif habib. The place is largely visited by younger lot working in Banks and MNCs located on II Chundrigarh road and MT Khan road.The restaurant has a nice decor and its pretty clean. The food quality is good. However, the service was on the slower side as all the customers were served very late. In some cases more than 1 hour.
