Took a long time to make two breakfast sandwiches and a latte and mocha. The breakfast sandwich was so bland I don’t know if there was any salt or other seasonings used…even in the sausage. Latte was watered down as well. I’m visiting LA so don’t know if this is a local chain or a single storefront but I usually try to support local shops. I hope they improve on their product.

“Such a wonderful experience! The coffee shop has a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, the coffee was rich and flavorful, and the staff were incredibly friendly and professional. What I really loved is that they are pet-friendly, so I could bring my dog and enjoy my time without any worries. The outdoor seating was perfect for enjoying the fresh air. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

Cafe Persona is seriously my favorite spot! Their strawberry matcha is the BESTTTT—so fresh, perfectly balanced, and just hits the spot every time 🍓🍵✨
The staff are always smiling and welcoming, and their warm energy makes the place feel like home. 10/10 vibes, 10/10 drinks. I keep coming back and it never disappoints!

If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would! This café is a hidden gem — everything about it is perfect. The matcha is hands down the best I've ever had: rich, vibrant, and perfectly balanced without any bitterness. Every flavor on the menu feels thoughtfully crafted, and you can genuinely taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients in every sip and bite. On top of that, the staff is incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive, making the entire experience feel even more special. Whether you're a matcha lover or just someone who appreciates great flavors and a cozy atmosphere, this café is a must-visit.

My family of 4 visited the restaurant this evening.

The restaurant closes at 5pm so we couldn't eat inside, but they prepared it for us to take out. The staff were very friendly and I was very happy. 😊

I bought 4types of sandwiches and they were all very delicious. Also, the dog in the restaurant was very cute.

I would like to visit again if I have the opportunity.

I was craving a matcha latte and this spot made a great one. A nice spot to bring a laptop and work on some stuff while sipping a delicious drink.

They had a lot of food/snack options but I ordered a matcha latte hot with honey. It was delicious and the temperature was just right.

I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items.

Looking for a calm quiet environment to relax in? Maybe a quick latte before work? This is your cafe! A small business dedicated to serving customers and creating memories.
I recently had the Saffron ice'd latte which has a sweet taste with a little after kick (spice). It's not for everyone but I enjoyed it a lot! Will be telling everyone I know about this cute cafe

Love this spot! It’s right in the middle of my bus commute to work and I always stop by for a coffee and a snack. The staff is very nice and everything is affordable. They stock lots of snacks and drinks as well!!
