It was really creamy and nutty. Pleasantly surprised and now a new favorite! I will say, for the size, $7 is a little steep, but it can be an occassional treat. I will say, I appreciated how to cup has a snap on drinking hole cover instead of the flimsy ones that don't fully close.

I did like the jasmine coffee though but it didnt have a strong coffee taste. Id probably come back to try their mont blac. That one looked like a cream foam on top of black coffee. Parking in the back on moore st. They have a daylight pairing that is dine it only. It looks pretty yummy.

Dangerously good! Honestly, this may be a new favorite spot for me!…read more The drink itself (Smokin Spaniard) was a lovely mix of sweet and rich, it'd be hard for me to order something different the next time I'm there bc of how good it was! Lots of seating, some tables and chairs, some bench tables. Free WiFi and several outlets make it a great spot to get work done. There's a bathroom for customers as well. I went midday and it wasn't very busy on a weekday, but I'm sure it's popular on the weekend. I got my drink very fast as well. Really enjoyed it!

Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab is a decent cafe with plenty of seating, making it a comfortable spot to…read morerelax or get some work done. Coffee - 3/5. The coffee was well-made - it wasn't burnt, overly bitter, or sour, so the extraction seemed solid. However, the flavor felt flat and watered down. It lacked the aroma, body, and rich roasted notes that make a cup memorable. Nothing really stood out, leaving it tasting more diluted than satisfying. Also, I don't think the barista could froth the coffee well. Instead of a nice velvety, dense froth, the froth was a bubbly foam (see photo). Food - 3/5. I visited around 9 a.m., but the pastry selection was surprisingly limited (see photo). The pastries also didn't taste particularly fresh; they had more of the texture and flavor you'd expect from pastries sitting out later in the day rather than freshly baked items you'd hope to find early in the morning. The café has a modern, hip vibe and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It's spacious, with plenty of seating, making it a pleasant place to spend some time. Overall, Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab is a fine neighborhood café if you're looking for a comfortable place to sit and enjoy a coffee. Unfortunately, neither the coffee nor the food left much of an impression. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing really stood out either. While the ambiance is probably its strongest point, the coffee is just average.

Found this place on Instagram, so we drove down from Pasadena...and it was well worth the drive…read more The store is super cute inside with a fun seating area. I wished we had arrived earlier to be able to enjoy more of the sold out offerings, but next time we'll arrive right when they open. We ordered a dozen crinkle cookies for a Mother's Day lunch - enjoying the sweet ube and the spiced thai tea versions. Both were great compliments to each other - more perfectly sweet and the other a bit more herbal. The chocolate chip cookie was perfect - nice crunchy edges and slightly gooey soft inside. The ube tres leches was a little disappointing as there wasn't any tres leches cake at the bottom, just crumbly graham crackers resting below exquisite ube mousse. It could have been mislabeled, but it was essentially just ube mousse with crumbly graham crackers for texture. The staff were friendly and the store is so fun!

I'm Mexican so the l tres leches was a little dry to my liking and lacked the ube flavor in my opinion I will return to try the other treats they have So if you're in the montebello area and haven't been here definitely give them a try I got a latte as well and it was well made

I was thinking to maybe just be fine with it, but she went the extra mile to ask if I was certain because she saw the look in my eyes. I really appreciate that detail of service!!! It ended up being for the better too because I was so pleased by my drink later on. I knew I wanted to try out one of their pastries. I picked the ham and cheese sandwich and waited for it to be ready and warmed. I have to say, you can tell the ham is one of those simple hams you can buy from a grocery store. They aren't unique or anything, so same with the slice of American cheese. Overall the sandwich was good though and enough to satisfy me when I wanted a quick breakfast. For the time we went, there was a couple of tables taken by people but there was still open spots to sit at. They aren't super quick so I recommend having a seat while you wait for your order. I definitely feel like the wait is worth it though, especially for their matcha drinks. I ended up going in line again to purchase another one. Bonus points to the the lady because I saw her help out the drinks staff and help out with their pile of orders. Such a help! The drink was great and I enjoyed this spot a lot.

I've been here a couple times now when I'm back in the area and do think its nice we have a "fancy"…read morecoffee shop in the area. Its a smaller space so more pick up and go but they do have some space if you want to stay and chat or work. Staff have always been nice and friendly and they have a lot of fun drinks (both teas and coffees). I think I always try a jasmine based drink but the jasmine never really comes through. Otherwise, I do think their lattes and teas have been pretty good, just don't expect a strong jasmine flavor or fragrance.

We've been here a few times now. I've tried the Matcha coconut (water) full sweet and %50 sweet…read moreboth are so good I recommend it if you like matcha. I've also tired the Creme Brulee Milk Tea, and the Thai milk tea. The Creme Brulee Milk Tea is really good I recommend it everyone, the Thai milk tea was good but nothing special. I think their speciality drinks are the way to go. The girls working there are always so nice, they even let us have our lunch there once it was a good place to eat and cool off on a hot day with our ice cold teas. I'm happy to have this place so close to home. Ziggy liked hanging out here too!

I got the Coconut Pudding Mango Coconut Milk and my bf ordered the Lemon Black Tea…read more My drink was really good--super creamy and refreshing. The mango flavor wasn't too strong, and I really liked the coconut pudding in it because it added a nice texture. My bf's Lemon Black Tea was light and refreshing with a nice lemon taste. Simple but really easy to drink. Overall, both drinks were good and refreshing. I'd come back again to try other flavors. Service was quick and friendly. There are lots of seating that is great for hanging out or studying.

I already placed an order for 2 Sunset Passion on the app and the estimated time for pickup was approximately 8 minutes. I arrived earlier than the timeframe and when I entered the store my drinks were already ready. At the time I went, all the parking spaces in front and near the store was taken so I park in the parking lot in the nearby shopping center. I was a little surprised to see a sign at the parking lot to beware of your surroundings and ensure to be vigilant of belongings in the car. I don't go to the Montebello often, but aside from this, the overall area felt extremely safe. Regarding the store though, even if I didn't spend much time inside, I noticed it was packed with only one or two tables remaining.

Funny enough, I live here in Montebello and pass this place almost every day, but never stopped in…read more-- which is surprising because I'm definitely a coffee drinker. Years ago, I went to the Monterey Park drive-thru location and was told they only had iced coffee drinks. Since I'm usually a hot coffee person, I never really went back. Fast forward to today, I was actually in the mood for iced coffee, so I decided to finally stop in and give it another try. I was surprised to learn they do have hot coffee options now, along with a huge variety of flavored coffees and teas. I love cinnamon, so I asked if they had any cinnamon-based drinks, but unfortunately they don't carry anything with cinnamon flavors. Instead, I ordered their original House Coffee, which is Vietnamese-inspired, along with a traditional Vietnamese iced coffee so I could compare the two. I also grabbed a pistachio macaron. The employee taking our order was really friendly and gave a few helpful suggestions, which made the experience even better. The shop itself has a very trendy and welcoming atmosphere. There were a lot of people inside studying, working on laptops, and hanging out, which gave it a really relaxed vibe. Overall, I'm glad I finally stopped in. I'd definitely come back again to try more drinks next time I'm passing through.

I always recommend ordering online thru the app so you can customize the order and it's on record. I ordered 5 drinks, 4 drinks with less ice and 1 bottled black coffee. When picking up the marble drip coffee was over 50% full of ice! I also questioned the girl who said she made it why that one drink had significantly more ice than all of the other drinks. She said that was less ice and she made it correct, and wouldn't remake the drink to how all the others were made correctly. I was there in the evening when the store was empty. I was also given the incorrect bottled coffee, which I told them before I left so they exchanged it. I sent them a message and they responded with a generic they will follow up but didn't , and then an email which they haven't responded to. So if they get your order wrong you are out of luck. Disappointing lack of customer service!
