“Amazing food not too far from the beach with absolutely awesome customer service! The #Vegan plates and chips and salsa cannot be beat anywhere close. The ambiance is casual and cool! LOVE this place!❤“

“Love this place. Donuts & breakfast sandwiches are bombbb! They also got good people working here, I left my CC in the morning, didn’t realize it till the next day, called and they said they found it on the table and would be happy to keep it safe until the next week when I was back in the town. Faith in humanity restored!“

“Fabulous. Love the French Onion souop“

“One of my favorite restaurants ever. The meat was seasoned so expertly and was so tender. Mussel toast was INCREDIBLE. Their sourdough was out of this world. Staff was knowledgeable and guided us in trying many interesting wines. This place was amazing!“

“Awakening is one of my favorite coffee shops & coworking space! I work from home, so it’s nice to change up the environment, especially when it’s as vibrant & lively as the staff, service, and the decor/design in Awakening. Btw, great matcha!“

“Probably rank it somewhere between 4 and 5 stars so let's round up to a 5. Got 2 sandwiches, the jambon (ham) and the Daniel Special (with prosciutto) with the latter a little saltier and richer. But both sandwiches lay on an almost perfect baguette lathered with rich butter. Every ingredient seems to be of top quality that creates a delicious sandwich. The other plus is that they offer half sandwiches!“

“chill spot for friendly conversation.“

“Great cafe. I came here again recently and ordered a macchiato (traditional) and it was excellent. Was very pleased, because these can be hard to find in LA done correctly. You can tell they care about coffee here and the service and atmosphere was very nice. I haven’t tried the food yet, but overall great addition to the neighborhood!“

“1.#Hyunsoohair says ‘The best cappuccino’ in west LA . 10-12 2024

It was a good therapy.“

“Had lunch here while visiting from San Diego for the day. Had the chicken pesto panini, butternut squash soup, along with a latte and americano. Everything was so good. Perfect amount of pesto on the sandwich (most restaurants skimp on the pesto) and soup was seasoned so well. Got a chocolate chip cookie and snickerdoodle cookie to-go and they tasted delicious. Service was great and I appreciated that the staff making sure we had the plates and utensils we needed when they brought our food and drinks to the table. Highly recommend getting a bite to eat here. Will be going back when I’m in town.“

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

“This is one of my favorite coffee spots. I particularly love their matcha latte. I get an iced oat milk matcha with the vanilla sweetener and it's the perfect level of sweetness and tastes amazing every time. The owners are so sweet and put so much care and time into every drink they make. The coffee has always been consistently good. So glad to have a place like this in the South Bay!“

“I originally left just a 5 star rating, no details, because I was heading out quickly and didn’t want to forget to leave something. But after seeing Angela’s kind response, I had to come back and say more. This place is awesome. There’s a few seats out front, but walking through the mirrored hallway into the quiet back room felt like stepping into a secret little workspace. Peaceful, well-designed, and just a great vibe overall.

My drink from JM was great, and you can grab hot food from Convi next door. Their breakfast sandwich was chef’s kiss. I realized as I was writing this that the mirrored room actually leads into Sendo, a beautiful home goods shop. The way these three businesses flow together and support each other makes the whole experience feel even more special.

Angela and the team are lovely, and it’s clear their energy draws in a great crowd. I really enjoyed my time here and highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area.“

“They have a nice study space and some tables and Chairs outside as well.... Its very mellow there.“

“The Amsterdam Cucumber Mint Lemonade“

“This is the best coffee in LA, the shop is small and most of the time busy in the morning time
The coffee is amazing (specialty coffee)
I tried a lot in Los Angeles and this is the best
The shop is small and it is crowded in the morning.“

“This is the best matcha in LA. I get a dirty matcha with oat milk and their homemade lavender syrup and it’s insane. They use ceremonial matcha too! The texture of the drink so so silky and amazing. A must try. Not expensive at all and you can get stamps to work towards a free drink! ?

It’s also a dream if a vibe in there.“

“My new favorite breakfast/brunch spot in MB!!! Cozy vibes with great coffee and food. The best part is the service - our server Ruben is awesome. He’s been our server the last couple of times I’ve been here and he’s the best. 10/10!!!!“

“Love this place! ❤️ Great tea and delicious pastries! The scones are my favorite! Great atmosphere and definitely one of my to-go-to fave places!“

“We stopped by DAMO on a whim one Saturday afternoon. Given its popularity, we weren’t surprised by the line. It was so packed that we could barely squeeze to the counter to order. We got the matcha latte and strawberry matcha latte with cream top. I was very impressed that they whisk the matcha in a matcha bowl for every order. The matcha taste is definitely much more defined! A little pricey for a drink but given the effort in each one, I think it’s worth it as an occasional treat. With the crowd, I’d say the place is good for buying something to go, but maybe not for studying.“

“Vibes are sooooo on point. Each seating area provides a different experience, a different function. The decor comes together so well, especially with how each area in the space has something unique to offer.
For food and drinks, we had a hojicha JBS, a mocha, and a matcha donut. The hojicha was good but the mocha was gross. Too acidic with no mocha flavor to it. The matcha donut was tasty. It’s not a normal donut; it’s spongy and a tiny bit dense at the center.“

“cute local coffee shop, friendly & great recommendations“

“Lovely family business. Great food & drinks, easy parking, inside & outside seating, affordable prices & totally relaxed & comfy athmosfere!“

“Absolutely love this local spot. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, the food is always delicious. You need to try the avocado toast, and the oatmeal! Wow! I really look forward to coming here for breakfast or lunch. The atmosphere is great, they have good background music, sweet little decorations and a variety of people who come from locals to visitors. I highly recommend this place, it will not disappoint!“

“The frappés are creamy, flavorful, and packed with boba goodness. Whether you prefer classic milk tea or fruit-infused concoctions, there's a flavor for everyone. The taiyaki – (fish-shaped treats) are crispy on the outside and filled with a warm, sweet filling. If you're craving a satisfying and delicious treat, give Boba Sound a shot.“

“Congratulations on 10 years!“

“This cafe offers very unique drinks that are otherwise hard to come by in America. The persimmon milk sounded the most intriguing, and it did not disappoint. The chunks of fresh persimmon are amazing in the milk, reminiscent of jelly drinks, and it was not too sweet. The black sesame latte was also amazing. It has a rich nutty sesame flavor and was complimentary to he added espresso. The injeolmi latte was great, but when mixed with espresso, it was overpowered: it became a simple latte with soy milk. The best part of these 2 lattes was dipping the tteok into the cream foam on top. Both flavors were heavenly. The service was friendly and there is a lot of space.“

“Safe and friendly amazing coffee. Give yourself a time out and go get an amazing coffee.“

“This might be my favorite new specialty drink in the city of LA. Georgia on my mind is awesome. I wanted it to be decaf, but they don’t have decaf coffee, so they made it as an iced decaf latte and added vanilla syrup and orange dust. Absolutely delicious.“

“lovely place“

“I came in a bit confused as it was my first time ordering for Alfred’s, Felipe just so happened to be at the front when he greeted me and knew I was very confused. I asked him if he had any recommendations and he recommended me the Lavender Matcha which did not disappoint at all, I also got the bagel he recommended me which I forgot what it had but bacon and avocado is a good mix that I doubted for a little bit. Shoutout to Felipe and his hospitality!“

“Fantastic coffee. espresso or drip, they know exactly what they are doing“

“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:)“

“Great place to get a coffee and do work. I like how the place to order coffee is in a different room from the seating, it helps preserve a quiet environment to get work done. Absolutely recommend the hot tiramisu latte. It comes with a chocolate wafer baton to sip out of and very tasty. Parking kinda sucks but you can snag a free spot near the residential streets. I would definitely bring a friend to this place.“

“If you’re going to the Academy Museum for a visit or a screening make sure to stop at Fanny’s (located inside the museum’s first floor) for a coffee, snack or meal. They have a cafe and restaurant, both offering quality food and beverages and a full bar. The restaurant has comfortable seating options and the cafe offers outdoor seating. The service is friendly and attentive. You’ll definitely have a great time and a good meal!“

“This is a warm, welcoming place to grab a coffee (or other drink) and bring your computer. I come here weekly for the programmer meet-up, but I also come just to sip and relax. A very good crowd.

Vegetarian options: This place mostly serves desserts, which are all vegetarian. There are a few non-vegetarian sandwiches.“

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

“What is there not to love about Alfred Coffee of WeHo! 😊“

“Congratulations on 10 years!“

“Beautiful cafe. Loved it here.“

“The drinks are so thoughtfully crafted and their potato chips are done fresh! The worker there was kind enough to offer me a reccomendation and she was incredibly understanding. I'll definitely be going again for that drink and those potato chips!“

“Matcha Village has the most delicious desserts! We tried the Green Vine Cheesecake and the Fruit Box Cake. Both were fantastic! The consistency of the matcha for the cheesecake was perfection. I wish I could explain it better, but it was amazing. Can’t wait to go back to try some drinks and the Peking deck crepe!!!“

“Great coffee. Great pastries.“

“Excellent High Tea on Montana Avenue. Great owner and staff. Relaxing atmosphere. Delicious teas and food. A jewel on our neighborhood! Highly recommended.“

“the empanadas are exquisite. you have to try them to understand. this some homemade Argentina style 😋 deliciousness. Rico is a show to say the least. I will definitely stop by just to grab some more empanadas. my highlight of the boardwalk. like Rico says they're 🔥 fire.“

“Amazing assortment of breads! So many great pastries! A nice and relaxing atmosphere with friendly service!“

“The vibe here is cozy and inviting, perfect for a quiet coffee break or a casual meet-up. The baristas are friendly and know their craft, serving up rich, flavorful brews that hit the spot. The seating is comfortable, and the decor has a rustic charm that adds to the overall experience. It’s a great spot to unwind or get some work done without feeling rushed. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.“

“Came here - it's great cafe and I see what the hype is about/why ppl rated it highly! It's a community cafe that feels like a nice purposeful place inside - the first time you visit, they'll let you have a coffee/drink on the house and then after that, you pay what you feel your drink and bill should be. They offer additional seasonal activities like art classes, creative things to do in this space - would def love to support it more and the coffee is great here! I got their seasonal/monthly latte: when harry met salty. Very good coffee! Hope this place sticks around and ppl support it! Can't wait to come back for another coffee or tea drink! If you go during prime time, there's a long line.“
