“So sad that this place is so far from me, it's pretty clean everything looks so delicious, the line when I went wasn't too bad and it flew by quick, that tres leches cake BOMB! My mom's not too much of a sweets fans but she loved the cake, it's a bit pricey.“

“1000% will be back! I was at the laundromat next door and ran over for a quick lunch while my clothes were in the dryer. The service was impeccable and quick, food was delicious, and portions were spot on. I had the breakfast bowl and an order of mini pancakes and will have enough for a second meal. You can tell it’s all made by hand and with love, fresh and hot. The restaurant was also clean and comfortable with plenty of street parking nearby. There is a laundromat next door too - so you could give yourself a little treat while your clothes are in the dryer.“

“Padekwa was an absolute delight! The hazelnut cookie latte, banana nut dirty chai, and vanilla almond pound cake were all incredibly delicious and did not disappoint. Every item was crafted perfectly and full of flavor.

Beyond the amazing coffee and treats, Padekwa has such a unique and welcoming atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for meeting friends, working, or hosting small to mid-size gatherings and events. A true hidden gem that combines exceptional drinks, tasty bites, and a space that brings people together.“

“First time being here.
I had cash but they only accept card.
Cameron provided a wonderful experience and a free coffee!
I tipped my smaller bulls but felt bad since I had a large bill (surviving until pay day).

I’ll definitely be back if I’m in the area.
Gracias“

“amazing coffee's, great barista/owner“

“😍Great Fresh Fruit Juice“

“I came in wanting a caramel macchiato and that wasn’t in the menu but one of the kind baristas was willing to make it and it came out amazing! He was willing to accommodate to our wants! Thank you so much and I’ll definitely be a returning customer :)“

“The perfect escape from a hot Cali day!!!
The two employees who were working behind the counter, were slammed with orders, but never once did either show any frustration or bad attitude. Customer service was top notch.
My husband and I ordered the large shaved ice with 2 fresh fruits, we got the strawberry and mango!!! Super yum!!! 😋“

“I really like it because the food is good and prices reasonable“

“So much to say… but ultimately, Colossus in Long Beach is WONDERFUL!! The BEST BLT I’ve ever had. Because they use high quality ingredients! Their Soft-Scrambled Egg Toast is divine. And everything is beautifully fresh. I love their country bread, baguettes, olive cumin bread, dinner rolls… but I have so much more to try Their pastries are scrumptious: Pecan Sticky Bun, Cardamom Bun, Kouign Amann, Financier, Marzipan Croissant, Sea Salt Brownie, OG Chocolate Chip Cookie. It’s all amazing and I’ve brought a number of friends to show off this incredible Belmont Shore Bakery. On Friday nights Colossus serves pizza into the night. Again, high-quality ingredients make their pizzas delicious. Plus they have interesting and unique combinations. They are tip free because their starting wage is $21/hr. Great customer service. Cute little space with some lovely specialty spice mixes, food items, merch, and wine. Indoor and outdoor seating, and they serve tasty coffees and teas. Colossus feels like a little bit of Europe on 2nd Street.“

“Rarely leave reviews but visiting from NYC and very impressed w/ the quality. I’m pretty picky w/ my coffee and this is a great choice in the area. They even use coffee ice cubes to keep the drinks from diluting… Highly recommend“

“Great food and , great customer service. You feel like home. Love it“

“I like to enjoy my favorite White Chocolate mocha and the good people !! They are very servicial with the customers !“

“This cheesecake did NOT reach any further than the parking lot. It did not SURVIVE the trip to my house. Best cheesecake I've ever had hands down. The banana pudding cheesecake was absolutely delicious. Once I started eating, I couldn't stop. That thing was gone in about 10 minutes and I enjoyed every bite. The guy who helped us was really nice too!“

“Great friendly vibe and delicious food.“

“First time here and Everything was great food was great and Rob our waiter was amazing. Will be back for sure.“

“엘에이에 가면 커피마시러 가장 먼저 가보고 싶은 곳 💕💕💕“

“Everything nice people good coffee“

“Was in the area and saw this cute cafe and decided to give it a try. From the moment I walked in I was greeted with warmth and smiles. The workers were so helpful and patient with me when ordering a drink and the oreo cheesecake was chef kiss ✨Definitely coming back to try other stuff on the menu !“

“Try their Sandwhich. It is sooo delicious. We enjoyed the food. Very clean and it is very cozy. Loved the ambiance. And the owner is very friendly. I will recommend this place to everyone that want to enjoy getting together with close friends. Mom and daughter bonding will be a fun place to go. Hope to go back again soon.“

“Went late one evening right before closing and needed a pick me up and got an iced cafe de olla latte. It was delicious. I was there for about 10 minutes talking with the barista and she was so nice and knowledgeable about their business. Let me try some of the cream soda which is A+ made in house child nostalgia. Need to bring my mom back there with me.“

“Always a great experience here! The food is delicious, the drinks taste great, and the views are amazing!!! Being able to see the cars on the track while you eat is definitely a fun experience! Our waitress Tay was amazing too!!! She was so sweet and so on top of things! Overall a great experience!“

“We stumbled upon this little café by chance while driving from the airport — and what a hidden gem it turned out to be! I honestly envy the office workers who get to have this place nearby every day.

It's a small café, but everything they serve is top-tier culinary art — the sandwiches, coffee, and salads are absolutely delicious. And the soups… just wow! We tried the pumpkin and broccoli soups — both incredibly tasty and nourishing. My 7-year-old son usually won’t touch broccoli, but he loved their broccoli soup and ate it with great pleasure.

We've only been there a couple of times over the past year, but it’s definitely on our list for every future trip to Los Angeles. Can’t wait to come back!“

“great service. fun yummy food and reasonable prices. go !“

“the coffee at this place is AMAZING you can tell they really care to make your drink well and aren’t using the basic syrups you can buy at the grocery store that every cafe seems to use these days. Although this place is TINY so not really a spot to expect to find a lot of seating if at all, the coffee is to die for. the organic milks and ingredients are delicious. i came here before a hot yoga class and was NOT disappointed. i’ll be coming back more often.“

“Really nice place, coconut matcha cloud is sweet and really good, matcha ruby cookie tastes well too.
Triple chocolate cookie is not sweet.
Space is really small but friendly to go by yourself or 1 more person.
Price is fair.“

“Family Friendly and quite lovely“

“We just ate at the San Juan Capistrano restaurant and it was amazing. Staff is warm friendly and the food was on point! We came for dinner and my steak was done perfectly. My husband had the Bronzino cooked to perfection. I highly recommend!“

“We came most days during our trip to the area. Highlights were the vegan cookies, seasonal rose cardimon lattes hot, the iced vanilla latte and avocado toast. Friendly and creative staff. Also tried the pistachio chocolate croissant and the sweet scone. Everything was awesome! I wouldn’t order the sweet scone again (wasn’t that sweet) but everything overall was so nice and the service was so pleasant. They are a very nice coffee shop“

“We LOVE George’s for a quick lunch, nice dinner, or catering a party! They have been there for me for all my dining or party needs. They never disappoint. Both the food and the service is outstanding.“

“Excellent service & high quality ingredients in my omelette such as red bell peppers!“

“Satisfacción 🤤💪🏼 got my dessert fix and cool off happy.“

“A rare find in San Pedro. The atmosphere is quiet and grounded—a true sanctuary for anyone looking to escape the noise. The staff is professional and welcoming, and the food is consistently satisfying and well-prepared. It’s the perfect spot for a calm, intentional breakfast. I’ll definitely be returning with my family.“

“Saw this place on social media and was in the area so decided to stop by. There was a long line but the wait time wasn't too bad. We got three drinks with a design. The matcha drinks were good. Also got a cold brew with sweet cream but the flavor was kind of simple and bland. The ambiance was nice but the time we were there it was just a bit chaotic because of how busy it was. It had nothing to do with the staff, they were all welcoming and helpful. I would definitely recommend visiting this location. The drinks with the design are unique and fun to have.“

“I eat breakfast once a week on average. The staff is great, always pleasant, great customer service. The food is good, I always order the one 12 breakfast. Can sub potatoes for a salad if wanted. Only one complaint having to do with restaurant next door. While trying to enjoy my breakfast outdoors, next door is being mopped with Fabuloso cleaner. Totally ruined my breakfast. On another occasion I sat close to that area and a plastic dumpster with trash was being wheeled by me. Not the greatest atmosphere unfortunately.“

“Every time I come into 7 Leaves, I always have so many questions about my drink, and the women there are always so kind and patient with me. They take their time explaining the different drinks, and I think I finally got it right now! They are truly wonderful, and I really appreciate how patient and nice they are with me every time I come in.“

“what a lovely place....of all races...( ;“

“Delicious!!! Definitely coming back. Great friendly service!…🥰“

“Everything it is an awesome place to eat at“

“Good food, i got the breakfast sandwich bagel, it was made fresh and tasted really good. I loved the fact that they had a wash bin in the store to wash hands instead of having to go to the restroom. I give the sandwich a solid 8/10. I will definitely be back.“
