Drinks were good as well as the fries. Great atmosphere and a chill spot

It’s a cute spot, but that’s about the only redeeming value this place has. When I went inside, I asked what their best selling matcha drink was and I got what they said - a normal iced matcha, nothing special and nothing I can’t get at an ordinary donut shop. I got their karaage which was overly fried, chewy and had virtually no flavor. Their spicy mayo it came with wasnt good either.
They kind of force a tip on you with the machine and then don’t even call out your number or even your name, they just put the food there on the counter for you to grab and on top of that they expect you to throw away your trash yourself - so what are we tipping for?
The men’s restroom was also broken and it said to use the women’s bathroom. I’m a dude and this didn’t sit right with me - I feel like this could put women at risk.
The staff also had angry look on their faces - this place didn’t feel welcoming at all.
Overall, I don’t recommend this place. There’s so much better out there.

The staff were really nice, but the location was kind of in the middle of nowhere and it was really packed in the afternoon. Other than that, most people come here to study so the place is pretty quiet. I told them no sugar, but the drink still came out too sweet.

It doesn’t have too many outlets if you don’t secure a table next to the wall, can be good for studying if you don’t come at a busy time. Good WiFi, coffee, and temperature, Google says it’s not busy Sundays at 3 but it is quite loud at this time, definitely a cute spot I’d come back to :)

This coffee shop has become my favorite morning stop. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the sound of soft music that makes the atmosphere cozy and welcoming. The baristas are always cheerful and remember regulars by name, which adds such a personal touch. I usually order a caramel latte, and it’s consistently smooth, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Their pastries are fresh and flaky — especially the almond croissant, which is heavenly. The seating area is comfortable, with plenty of natural light and free Wi-Fi, making it ideal for relaxing or getting some work done. Prices are fair for the quality, and the service is always fast, even during busy hours. It’s the kind of place where you can unwind, catch up with friends, or just enjoy a quiet moment. A true neighborhood gem!

Good place to get matcha and other drinks around Bellaire. This place is a great spot to sit down and study. They have a large menu of drinks and food items too. The place is cheaper compared to most places I know in houston. I also noticed the drink I got which was very tasty, it had a foam and ice that made up most of the drink. The beignets were good, I've had better. Overall good spot and I'd come back!

I walked in & it was very quiet! Only 2 people in here. Found a spot & an outlet that worked (Thank God, my computer is old) & ordered! I know this place has been promoted for matcha but I didn’t get it because I came at around 5pm & I didn’t want caffeine that late. However, I love lychee & decided to give the lychee lemonade a try! My total was $11 (before tip). Everything was delish & staff was nice! I’ll be back for sure <3

I moved to Houston from New Orleans and have been searching high and low for a place to scratch the beignet itch and this is definitely the place! Had both the regular and matcha beignets and both were light, airy, and delicious! The honey they give you with it is also shockingly good with floral and orange (I think) flavors to it.
The coffee was no slouch either and I got the cold brew and it was super smooth and tasty.
I can't rave about this place enough! Great vibes and even better food! I'll definitely be returning

So… Morii Coffee got a glow-up. Or maybe a full identity cleanse. I’m not saying my one-star review triggered a shift in the universe, but… I came back and suddenly there’s new ownership, new staff, and a little sign that basically says, “Same drinks, but now we’re actually nice!” 😂
The space still has that whole French country thing going on — chill lighting, soft colors, cute little tables — but now it feels more functional. Like, I could actually bring my laptop here without feeling like I’m disturbing the aesthetic. There’s even a big bench table for people like me who carry 17 devices and need room to overthink life decisions.
I tried the dragon fruit lemonade — super refreshing, not too sweet, and they didn’t drown it in ice (respect).
The karaage (Japanese fried chicken)… hmm. It came out in chicken finger–style strips. Juicy, yes. Crunchy? Not really. It was giving “almost,” but the spicy mayo tried its best to make up for it. We’ve all been there.
Didn’t get to try the puff — which everyone else seems to love — but the regret is already brewing, so I’ll probably be back for that.
Also: outlets! Outside tables! Actual quiet!
Basically, this coffee shop in Chinatown redeemed itself. Not perfect, but chill enough to make the regulars forgive and forget. Maybe.

I have been a regular customer since the establishment first opened, but recent experiences have led me to reconsider my visits. It seems there may have been a change in ownership, as I’ve noticed longer wait times—such as over 20 minutes for food orders like chicken nuggets and croissants—without prior notice to customers.
It appears there's a shortage of staff, which affects service. It may be helpful for the management to hire additional staff or for the owner to take a more active role in operations. While I appreciate the efforts of the team, I believe a more streamlined experience would enhance customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, I have decided not to return at this time.
