“Congratulations on 10 years!“

“I don't know what they put in their strawberry matcha, but it's one of the best I've ever had. It almost tastes like they use some type of strawberry juice making it so refreshing and the drink itself is pretty. Great location and the service was pretty good. I'd definitely recommend!“

“Great vegan "fish" burger and side salad was superb. Good quality coffee. Friendly and fun staff. With valet parking at the rear of the building it was easy to find a space to put the car. All in all a very high standard all round.“

“The iced blended coffee was delicious“

“Employees are extremely friendly I had just got out of urgent care and was waiting for my ride to show even though the dinner was closed due to it being after hours as soon as I got my food the night shift employee was kind enough to let me sit down in the dinner to enjoy my food and to gwait till my ride showed up differently got my morning starting off great thanks again to the Latino guy who was working night shift T“

“Love this place and all the seating options. I only have 1 complaint which is the menu wording - “+ your choice of milk!” makes people assume alt milk is free when it’s 50c extra. We already know we have choice of milk!! just include it in the price or take it off the menu lol“

“wonderful staff delicious coffee“

“I recommend Botanica to everyone. They use fresh hand picked ingredients and the food is delicous! Their cocktails and desserts are so yum. I picked up some chile oil and pickled local veggies for gifts for my friends! Chef Zarah and the staff are best. Will definitely be returning soon.“

“my new favorite coffee shop!! the baristas were sooo friendly as soon as i walked in and the ambiance was to die for. i came for the first time with a friend of mine; both of us also work in coffee and we were so impressed! awesome pastry selection too, can’t wait to come back :)“

“My God I’m so grateful. I was already in little Tokyo and wanted a matcha. A quick google search lead me to this place and it’s said to be the best in LA. I think, I can agree with that statement. What in grateful is it was a Saturday evening, they work till 8pm. All other days they close at 5pm and Monday they are closed. I ordered oatmeal matcha latte , it was 6.50 and worth it“

“**A sweet slice of heaven in Santa Monica!** Junior Cookies is an absolute *gem*. I came in for the cookies (which are AMAZING – warm, gooey, and perfectly crisp on the edges), but I stayed for the whole vibe. Their ice cream is ultra creamy with rich, dreamy flavors that pair perfectly with the cookies—highly recommend making your own cookie cream with ice cream with cookies! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee is. It’s bold, smooth, and just what I needed to balance out the sugar rush. Honestly, it’s rare to find a cookie shop where the coffee actually stands out, but Junior Cookies gets it right. Best coffee, best cookies, best matcha, and best ice cream in la! The place is super cute inside, with a cozy neighborhood feel and friendly staff who seem genuinely happy to be there. You can tell everything is made with love. The cookies and recipes are unique. 5 star bakery in LA. If you're in Santa Monica, **don’t miss this spot**. Whether you’re craving dessert, a caffeine fix, or just want to treat yourself, Junior Cookies delivers!“

“Best bagel in Los Angeles! So excited to see expansion into Calabasas. Love your food!“

“Totally worth the 70 minute drive. Delicious food and great Taiwanese hospitality. Friendly, attentive staff and wonderful atmosphere. Minced Pork (Lu-Rou) Rice, fully loaded delicious stewed pork with egg. Meats are juicy and tender, kinda on the sweet side. Clamshell bun (Gua Bao) comes with tender thick cut pork, a bit on the salty side, but very well cooked. Fatty but not greasy. Thousand layer pancake with egg and basil was crispy and flaky. The basil flavor is a wonderful addition. Scallion bread sandwich was what we expected. Same tender thick cut pork, very happy to eat this. Next time I will probably get the beef, too much pork belly today Wonton soup is very classic, if you like shrimp wontons, you have to try this. We ended the meal with Hakka mochi and Oolong tea, the mochi tasted just like the ones in Taiwan. The tea was fragrant and is just the perfect compliment to the mochi. Overall an amazing meal with warm and friendly people, highly recommend!“

“really great Thanks a lot and very nice team ❤️“

“chill spot for friendly conversation.“

“Highlight Coffee Shop in Glendale, CA is a true gem for coffee lovers. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a cozy coffee experience.“

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Cognoscenti Coffee on our interview date. Modern meets comfort with a hint of retro inside (and outside) Culver City’s Cognoscenti Coffee. Don’t let its small exterior fool you, because once you step inside you will be welcomed by a slew of cute bistro tables, industrial benches, and colorful chairs. But wait, there’s more! Veer to the right and catch a breath of fresh air in their somewhat secluded patio area. Whether you’re meeting with your bestie or having a writer’s meeting, you will easily be able to find a space to fit however many people in your party. Now let’s get to the good stuff! Cognoscenti’s beverage menu is comprised of the classics along with fun seasonal recipes in the mix. My drink of choice, the surprisingly refreshing Turmeric Latte. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting myself into, but I’m very glad that my day to be adventurous was an enjoyable one with its perfect ratio of milk to spice. Hungry? Check out their selection of huge (and I mean huge) pastries to fill you up for breakfast or to hold you over until your group dinner in one of the Downtown Culver restaurants.“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“the option of pistachio milk. the pastries are fantastic.“

“Beautiful cafe. Loved it here.“

“Highly recommend! The gluten free everything bagel was quite good, not rubbery like a lot of GF bagels. I sat at the bar and the servers were very nice and friendly. Food came in less than 10 minutes despite the whole place being pretty full. You can buy tubs of cream cheese to go and they have a small area of cute things to buy like hats, coloring books, some plates, condiments etc. Make sure you go to the pickle themed bathroom!“

“I love coming here for their “sticky situation” matcha. It’s delicious.

Apart from the great drinks, the atmosphere is so lovely and the playlist is always 🔥. I love coming here to work because the music isn’t too loud, you can take meetings, and the Harun team don’t mind if you stay for a while.“

“Bloom is my favorite coffee spot in LA. I remember visiting them when they first open and the atmosphere was incredibly chill and loving. On top of that their coffee’s, matcha’s and specialty drinks are really really good. Id say one of the top matcha’s ive had in LA. The shop is beautiful. Filled with flowers and cool merch. I always recommend my friends to bloom and everytime we go, its always an incredible experience. I love them.“

“It’s a one of kind experience! I ♥️ their coffee, pastries and the ambiance!“

“I've been there with my sister a couple months ago. We had Filipino iced coffee, matcha affogato and matcha cookies. We still can't forget the flavor of the drinks. Filipino iced coffee is our core memory of our trip to USA. The best coffee we've ever tasted.“

“Hot day. We had a relax time with amazing tea!!!“

“I love Freddo. Their coffee and ice cream are fantastic (I love all of their Dulce de Leche flavors). Their empanadas, medialunas, and alfajores are great too. The people working there is nice and friendly. There is a nice patio in the back too. Parking can be tricky but you can always find a spot if you move away from Ventura. It’s open late too, so if you are looking for a espresso in the evening, this may be just the place for you“

“Excellent coffee and food. A really welcoming atmosphere too!“

“The Amsterdam Cucumber Mint Lemonade“

“I loveeee this place!!! definitely one of my fav matcha spots ever! the service will always be one of my favorites as well :). ive tried all of their matchas on the menu and my favorite is the banana cream matcha. all of their syrups are made in house and taste sooo good!“

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED“

“I LOVE this place! They have happy hour from 3pm-6pm on the weekdays, but the best part is Joy the amazing Barista! She is very nice and will always make your day! I get so much school work done here! 1000 stars!“

“I will never come to Burbank without visiting Lou's on the block!!!! These croissants are as good as any in Europe and I am constantly dreaming of when I can get down here and get more. Thank you Lou and staff!!!“

“Here's why I like this place so much: great coffee, easy parking, indoor and outdoor seating, and when the guy at the register points out a book I'm reading and offers a rec for a Korean author I've never heard of? I'm all in.“

“Stopped by Be Bright Coffee and ordered a cortado made with their Colombia Paola Trujillo Wush Wush Natural. The coffee had tasting notes of blood orange, red currant, honeysuckle, and tart cherry juice, which made it a really interesting coffee to experience in a milk drink.

The cortado itself was very well executed. The milk had a smooth, creamy texture with strong integration, and the body remained cohesive throughout most of the drink. As I worked my way through it, the espresso and milk continued to hold together nicely without developing a thick or separated layer of foam. The tasting notes had good clarity and came through well in the milk. The latte art could have been a little cleaner and more defined, but that’s a minor presentation detail and didn’t take away from the quality of the drink.

My main technical feedback would be the temperature. It was served just slightly hotter than I think it should have been. The flavors were still clear from the beginning, but the difference became noticeable as the cortado cooled. The coffee really opened up, and those fruit-forward characteristics became even more expressive and enjoyable. Starting the drink at that slightly lower temperature would have made the experience feel more dialed in from the very first sip.

I gave Be Bright four stars, and part of that comes down to the $10 price of the cortado. At that price point, I think the expectations naturally move into a different category. When you’re paying $10 for a cortado featuring a coffee like this, I’m expecting the execution to be as close to perfect as possible. The slightly higher serving temperature, along with the minor presentation detail, was enough to keep this one from reaching that level for me.

The customer service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the person working the register was especially nice and made the experience feel inviting. Overall, it was a very good cortado with quality coffee behind it, and I’d definitely return to try some of the other beans they offer.“

“Coffee was great! Staff was friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was fun, sharp, and clean. What they offer in terms of beans was pretty remarkable. Options from all over the world. Staff helped me navigate to some of the best options for the profile I was looking for. When I was in Switzerland and the barista found out I lived in the US l, he said, “Ooh, you guys have Kumquat!” Pretty high praise to immediately highlight it that way.“

“friendly staff- awesome coffee - great hangout“

“Maru has really Nice green tea latte. I usually leaning toward coffee and Maru’ coffee is super nice. But, their iced green tea latte is something else.“

“If you’re a coffee lover, definitely give this place a try.
They really know how to brew specialty coffee right. This is the kind of coffee you should be able to drink completely plain and still enjoy. It’s not too bold, not bitter, and you can actually notice different layers of flavor in the cup.
I know there are other places in LA doing this style of coffee, but in my opinion Intelligensia is by far the best one.“

“The bresaola sandwich is the best sandwich in LA. Besides the ingredients being of incredible quality the combination is wholly original as far as I know. Bresaola, pistachios, fresh fennel, lemon cream, very crisp lettuce, and avocado (which isn’t on the menu description but seems to be a newer improvement) on phenomenal bread. It’s a very filling sandwich so I usually opt for the half at $13. The full size comes close to $30 with tax and tip but it’s worth it if you share or split into two meals.“

“Great coffee and the decor is amazing. ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️“

“Friend found this Taiwanese food spot near the Convention Center, which worked out for a quick dinner before the KCON concert. Not quite your usual Taiwanese comfort food restaurant, but food-wise, it's close enough. I do see this being a convenient and nice dining location for those living in downtown LA.

So you order and pay first, and then take your number to a seat of your choice. Other than your food being brought to you, everything else is self-serve, from picking out your table, getting cutlery and water, etc. You also might want to have your party all here if you want to sit together to eat. Our other half of the group was still on their way, so my friend and I just ordered first and dined at a table for two.

I picked their minced pork on rice ($12) and passion fruit tea ($4.25 with no refills). My friend ordered the wonton noodle soup and I got to try some of hers. I liked what we both ordered and can confirm it's worth ordering again.

I walked over from the convention center so not quite sure on the parking options, other than street parking and the random parking lot / structure you'll find around DTLA.“

“Came for aperitivo/apericena to vibe and get some work done. The patio was fun and our waiter was super kind. A chef stepped out with a dish and was taking photos outside, and on his way back we asked if it was new. He offered us the plate and told us it's coming onto the fall menu in a couple weeks. Super fun to try a new dish. We spent a couple hours of hanging, munching, and working here... will return!“

“Daily use of their matchas!“

“Great place if you have a dog. Very relaxing backyard. Extremely zen. Don't even know what zen means but I know it's a good thing.“

“This cafe is wonderful...they have really good overnight oats and their iced honey lavender lattes are delicious (I know...sounds different, but seriously try it!) The owner is super friendly and the cafe has many places to sit to enjoy your coffee. Will definitely come back:)“

“Best Breakfast in Hollywood! We love it. Also the people they work there, are very friendly. Easy parking in front of the restaurant. Aircondition and relaxed music... So let us start in the day perfectly! ❤️❤️❤️“

“I always wanted to stop at this coffee olace and try it But never had the chance finally stopped. And walked in Beverly Hills and had their coffee. I took an Ice Cappuccino and it was phenomenal. My new favorite cap in town. Will be back for more items soon.“
