“I stopped by this 7 Leaves Cafe today to pick up my cousin to go order. She got 2 jugs of the Thai tea and Jasmin Milk tea. I found parking easily when I came today around the afternoon. When we walked inside we were greeted and ask if we could give them a couple of minutes because they were making drinks. I first put in a order of a large summer mint and a Jasmin Milk tea for my wife. I paid with my American Express credit card because they told me they accept it now. After I paid for my order, I told them I was picking up my cousin order as well. I just give them her name and they give me her order. It didn't take long for them to make the 2 drinks. The inside of this place isn't that big but I think it's more of a pick up or to go order here. They have outdoor seating as well. My wife loved her Jasmin Milk Tea, my cousin husband enjoyed his Summer Mint and everyone else like their teas we got in the jug so it was a big hit.

Parking: There a lot of parking places in this plaza.

Kid-friendliness: This place is kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: This place is wheelchair accessible but it is tight inside.“

“Oliboli isn’t your typical walk-in, grab-a-donut, and head-out kind of shop. Instead of picking something out of a case, every donut is made fresh to order in the kitchen and handed to you warm within 3–5 minutes. Whatever topping or glaze you choose melts right into the donut and adds to the flavor instead of overpowering it. The donuts come out warm, light, and almost brioche-like, with just enough crispy edge to make each bite feel special. Plan on paying around $5-6 dollars per donut.

I ordered the Maple and the Autumn Sprinkle, and both were great for different reasons:

• Maple Glazed: Warm, soft, and perfectly glazed. The outside has a gentle crisp from the fryer, and the maple flavor isn’t overly sweet — super balanced. It reminds me of a really good old-fashioned but with more lift and a cleaner finish.
• Autumn Sprinkle: Fun, seasonal, and surprisingly flavorful. The glaze has a hint of vanilla, and the sprinkles add great texture without being overly crunchy or artificial. If you’re in a fall mood, this one nails it.

Overall, Oliboli is one of the few donut shops where you can tell every donut is made with intention. If you appreciate quality over quantity, this place is a must-visit in OC.“

“Tried this place for the first time today, I got the strawberry blended with boba. When I tell you it was the best boba drink I've ever had, jaw dropping, amazing, flavor was incredible! I want to say this is the best boba I've ever had and I've only tired one drink here! I'm excited to try more flavors!“

“🌱 A Hidden Gem for Vegan Delights

Stopped by FreeSoulCaffe for lunch today, and it instantly earned a spot on my list of favorite vegan restaurants. We tried the Panini Poulet (vegan chickin) and the Atlantic Sandwich (vegan tuna)—both were bursting with flavor and freshness, generously portioned, and deeply satisfying. Served on delicious sourdough bread, the sandwiches had just the right texture and crunch to complement the fillings. Each came with a fresh side salad brushed with just the right amount of white wine vinaigrette, adding a bright, tangy finish that elevated the meal beyond the ordinary.

The restaurant itself was spotless, and the staff were warm and attentive throughout our visit. We chose to sit outside in the peaceful courtyard, which added a lovely touch to the experience. It was clear we weren’t the only ones enjoying it—plenty of other diners were happily soaking in the atmosphere.

Whether you're vegan or just curious, I highly recommend giving FreeSoulCaffe a try. Even non-vegans are likely to walk away impressed.“

“Excellent service, very personable and sweet young lady at the counter! Everything is delicious! My orange smoothie with the added Boba was so tasty! I'll definitely be back and recommend to stop by for a yummy bagel and donut a drink.“

“delicious food & great service 😋 💁‍♀️“

“Everything, Ivy Bridge @ Ivy's Bridge to Better Health in Tustin will be 91 and she’s probably healthier than all of us. She is an AMAZING woman. Everyone needs to see her. Best 45.00 you will ever spend for a 30 minute eye reading consultation. Promise you wont be disappointed. 5 stars“

“The young man who took my order was friendly and helpful. I asked for sandwich suggestions since it was my first time there, and he definitely led me in the right direction.

The sandwich was loaded with all the good stuff, but WAY too much lettuce - there was no way to take a bite of it, and since I am not a snake and able to unhinge my jaw, I took most of it out. I did appreciate the generous helping of avocado and all the ingredients were fresh.

Lastly, for what I got, the price was very good. I'm a fan and I'll be back!“

“The Lobby Cafe is such a cool new spot in the Tustin District—small, trendy, and beautifully decorated. My family and I stopped in for brunch and loved everything we tried: the breakfast burrito, eggs benedict, French toast, and wagyu burger, plus a few lattes to share.

Our standouts? Definitely the Ube French Toast, the perfectly cooked Eggs Benedict, the refreshing iced Matcha Latte, and the cozy hot Spanish Latte. Service was fast and friendly, making the whole visit even better. Bianca and her staff are young, energetic and friendly.

We’ll definitely be back whenever we’re in Tustin for a delicious, laid-back brunch!“
