Just bumped into the owners and they are such a lovely couple! They take any type of criticism/ feedback very seriously and take it into consideration for the future. Both times we’ve went, the drinks were delicious. I highly recommend the hojicha oat latte!

Croissants tasted store bought and then cut in half and filled with so much filling it was soggy. We got the coffee banana lattes and the banana puree is very artificial and made me have chemical banana acid reflux all day. It was pretty awful. I threw away over half of my drink and so did my mom. We also threw away our almond and cream filled croissants. $30+ wasted. It’s pretty dirty inside as well with stains all over the furniture. The people working were nice but it was hard to hear them over the loud techno music.

Daughter devoured her butter croissant immediately! She also finished her 16 oz Vanilla Milk on the spot.

I choose the churro latte with the garlic cheese croissant. It was so freaking good, hit the spot.

We also got a cookie for my niece and everything was fairly priced. Such a cute place.

I came in an hour before closing and needed a cake. The staff was friendly and explained to me all the options they had. Even in short notice they were able to accommodate and deliver the cake. I got a tiramisu cake, looked very pretty but unfortunately the taste was disappointing. The cake was soaked in coffee evenly and the cream tasted a little sour. When I cut into the cake the layers were not evenly spread, there was a lot of empty space visible between the cake and the cream. Additionally I got a banana matcha latte and asked for less sweet. However, I couldn’t taste much of the matcha, seems like it was premade in bottles sitting on the counter. The drink overall was still pretty sweet. Considering the price here are high, the products I got was not worth it.

I ordered a Chanel-themed birthday cake and was extremely disappointed. The “Chanel bag” on display was actually a cheap plastic box. The decorative flowers also appeared like icing in the photos, but in reality they were fake.

The cake itself was no better. The surface looked unappealing, the texture was overly moist and soggy. The flavor was overwhelmingly sweet, making it very unpleasant to eat.

For the price I paid, I expected a high-quality cake with edible decorations, not plastic props and disappointing taste.

This is one of my favorite matcha places in all of OC!! I come here every Monday after class for their “Matcha Mondays” special where all the matchas are $4! They have so many delicious options and I have loved every single one. They also have the most delicious pastries as well! The croissants and macarons are all delicious but my absolute favorite is the yuzu lemon tart!!!!!! HANDS DOWN THE BEST TART I THINK IVE EVER ATE IN MY LIFE. Perfect sweetness and has fresh fruit on top, the crust is super yummy as well, super refreshing and yummy!

It’s pretty hard to find good matcha in OC and I can tell you this has got to be one of the very few places that get it right! And with all the different flavor options from strawberry to ube they all are amazing!

The staff are also the friendliest people!!! I’ve only been coming here once a week for the past month I think(?) and they remember me and welcome me back every time :)

The atmosphere is great, they always have nice upbeat music on and the seating area is really cute with little couches and coffee tables. Both me and my little sister love coming here to just talk and have some drinks n treats! I also come here to work on my homework or art! Overall 10/10 recommend trying this place out!!!!!

I was pet sitting in the area and came across this place. I had the iced Vietnamese coffee, almond croissant, and a yuzu berry tart.

The customer service was excellent. Very friendly, quick service. The seating area is decorated very cute. It’s definitely a vibe.

The coffee is excellent. I’ve never had Vietnamese coffee so I have nothing to compare it to but this drink was SO GOOD! They use Moongoat coffee. Love love love.

The croissant is super tasty, light and flaky, with just enough almond butter. Not super sweet, just really good.

I haven’t eaten the yuzu fruit tart yet, saving it for later but it’s very aesthetically pleasing.

I would definitely come back.

Parking: easy, free lot
Bathroom: I didn’t use the bathroom-no notes
Price point: coffee $5.50, pastries vary. I spent $23 with a tip for coffee and two pastries that could easily be shared.
ADA- there is a ramp to enter the plaza and seating and entrance to establishment easily accessible. No notes on bathroom.

First time—and last.

Tried their Vietnamese coffee, hard to justify coming back.

What I got tasted like a regular latte. No boldness, no sweetness, no depth—just milk and espresso with a misleading label. Honestly… what was I drinking?

Vietnamese coffee should hit with intensity: strong robusta, rich condensed milk, and a flavor that lingers. This had none of that. It felt like they skipped the recipe and hoped no one would notice.

I also tried the pistachio croissant, which looked promising but had a strange off flavor—definitely not what I expected.

The atmosphere was cool—stylish, inviting, definitely a place you’d want to hang out. But if the drinks don’t deliver, the vibe alone isn’t enough to bring me back.
