I don’t think I would go to The Grove specifically for this restaurant. The first sip of it made me feel it tasted good, but as I continued drinking it, it became more and more average. It is very different from the main store in Kyoto.Suitable for online beauty photos.

Tried their Spanish latte and it was delicious ! Such good coffee. They're also super consistent as I've had it in UAE & Vietnam

Ordered the hot Kyoto Latte. Pleasantly surprised by how good this coffee was. It's lightly sweeten by condensed milk yet it doesn't overpower the espresso. Bit on the pricier side ($6.25 for a 8 oz). Worth the try for sure. Baristas seemed very focused and detailed in their coffee prep. Coffee art came out so cute - perfect little heart.

LOVE the coffee when it’s mellow, fresh and with no acidity! Matcha latte with Uji matcha is also amazing- the perfect bitterness with a strong kick. Top notch beverage products! We look forward to seeing more shops in LA!

While strolling through the grove on one of my usual shopping trips I was pleasantly surprised to see they opened up a % Arabica. I have seen the original in Kyoto, Japan with people waiting up to an hour for their coffee. I couldn't resist swinging by to give it a try. At this point ive been here a couple of times and really enjoy their various coffees. My favorite and go to drink especially in LA is the Iced Kyoto Latte. The drinks are a little in the pricey side but overall solid. Its a nice stall where you can pick up a drink before you stroll through the beautiful outdoor shopping complex. I come by here pretty often when I'm at the grove.

Very smooth, tasteful, well balanced coffee. Kyoto is my go to but all the options on the menu are good as well in my opinion. Worth a try.

Love the simple design from the cup to the menu. It tastes and is made exactly how you'd imagine the drink to taste like. Nice touch to have while shopping around the Grove. The line was long but our orders were made quickly!

Long over due review for % Arabica as I paid a visit to this location on the day they opened. The owner was there, training some of the new baristas and I had a great introduction to the new coffee kiosk. The owner of this particular location explained to me that the business started in Japan, by founder Kenneth Shoji, who wanted to present the best coffee roast from different countries. His passion was coffee and he wanted the patrons to "travel and experience the world" through the coffee. % Arabica took over the former business, Groundwork Coffee. They lightened it up, made it more transparent and bright. I ordered the iced Kyoto Latte: It was lightly sweetened with just enough creamer to balance out the brew. It was balanced, smooth and just to the point, a very good cup of cold brew. It is a kind of beverage where quality is focused over quantity and is meant to be sipped and savored. This isn't a kind of drink where you can down in gulps or not be mindful and just walk around and sip. This is a kind of drink where you should pause, have a seat and enjoy, especially over a conversation with a friend. Cold drinks are served in paper cups and no plastic was served, another point where I truly appreciate.

Their latte is very impressive! Milk is soooooo soft, and the coffee tastes very smooth. Since I don't prefer acidic coffee, their coffee is so perfect. I wish we do have them in Las Vegas :)

Great new coffee place in The Grove! Each hot latte is made with latte art on top! So cute~! The matcha was a great and very authentic, not too sweet like most American places will make matcha. We could see the packaging for the matcha from outside and it was written in Japanese so I assume the matcha is imported from Arabica in Kyoto. My boyfriend said the Kyoto Latte was good as well! The service wasn't particularly exceptional, however, considering the spot in The Grove, it didn't feel too important to the experience.

The worst Kyoto latte I’ve ever tasted. Burnt coffee, miserable service. I was excited to try this coffee shop after the amazing coffee in London. But these guys don’t know what they’re doing.
