Kermizian left to teach her class and told the ladies that they just had to see the dapper man who walked through the front doors. And then she remembered, she left her coffee at the bar.
"I ran back out and I said, 'You look exactly like him,'" Kermizian recalled.

"I was so embarrassed I said, 'What are you doing here?'" the coffee shop owner said.
Turns out, the "Spider-Man" and "Justice League" actor was filming a documentary in a studio space next door with Stephen Colbert, a Montclair resident, Kermizian said. He was letting his dog out and grabbing some coffee before their day began.

And now Kermizian will never not recognize Manganiello again.
