    Strawberry Matcha
    Mai T.

    Hidden in the retail plaza where Amazon Fresh used to be. Taste is 10/10. Customer service is 10/10. Ambiance is perfect for lovers of Legos. Great location for studying or grabbing a drink on the go.

    I'm on a hunt for a good matcha latte, but I also like trying unique drinks. I did try the Cookie Butter Matcha latte (yes, a fru fru drink), just to change it up. Always a 50% sweet kinda gal, but I think the cold foam added a touch too much sweetness. That's my only opinion of the specified drink. The service was super nice and friendly. Would recommend for coffee dates. Atrá is located in a large parking lot, shared with other shops and a grocery store. Limited indoor seating (more seating outside). Good place for studying, saw lots of that. :)

    Banana Vietnamese coffee
    Alejandra B.

    We stopped by for several reasons: 1. The place caught my attention when I saw a friend post it on instagram 2. It had good ratings on yelp 3. We were right down the street since we were coming from UCI I ordered the banana Vietnamese coffee and GIRL, it was phenomenal. It actually tasted like real banana, not like the artificial flavor that places tend to have (which is why normally I don't order banana flavored things tbh) I took two sips of my drink and was lit, ready to take on the world hahaha. The workers were friendly, the place was clean and had a relaxing atmosphere. These people know what they're doing I gotta take my mom here.

    tried their pandan coffee and pistachio Matcha. Didn't regret any, but perhaps I would ask for 75% sweet because the half sweet makes the coffee even stronger and note that they use Vietnamese coffee so it's so strong and bold. The staff is friendly and recommended couple drinks that people usually get. It's a very cute coffee shop. It's pretty small, but they have a few seat seats that you can study or work while enjoying the drinks.

    Great ambience, coffee pretty coffee overall exceedingly other coffee shops around here so if you're in the OC, try the coffee try the banana and the coconut lattes. All the employees were nice, very friendly atmosphere. well, I'll definitely be back for the iced banana foam Vietnamese coffee.

    Cookie Butter Matcha Crema (Left) & Matcha Crema (Right)
    Michelle N.

    So many times I passed by this place, but finally got to try it! What caught my eye was the Cookie Butter Matcha Crema! Unfortunately, the only thing that made it cookie butter was the biscoff pieces on top. Other than that, the entire drink just tasted like a regular matcha latte with sweet cream. I wish there was so cookie butter lining so that flavor gets emphasized more! Overall, great matcha spot.

    Hojicha milk tea
    Kat C.

    In need of a pick me up and this miracle happened to be in the same plaza where I had lunch. I wanted matcha but when I saw hojicha on the menu I had to get it. I liked the toasty flavor and the softer caffeine compared to matcha. Kinda random but keep in mind you may have to speak up when you order bc of the glass partition on the counter. They have such cute decor and indoor and outdoor seating. Not sure if they have WiFi or restrooms. Will come back bc I want to try the matcha and maybe do a fit check in their beautiful full length mirror.

    This place is delicious! Also love that there are a lot of tables and chairs even if it's a smaller cafe. One restroom pretty clean and parking is easy in a plaza!

    Double Matcha & Pandan Coffee
    Summer Z.

    Starting off the customer service is good ! Very welcoming staff especially the guy who helped me at the register. They have so many options to choose from and their drinks are definitely something worth coming back too. The matcha was super good can taste the quality and it comes in a big size atomically so definitely worth the money ! The pandon coffee is good in flavor on the less sweet side so would recommend asking for extra sweet if you like it sweeter. Overall a great place !

    Black sesame iced coffee
    Julie Ann M.

    Came to Rifle Gear nearby and needed a coffee to wake up from the long drive, and I came across this coffee shop and it did not disappoint. The staff were extremely kind and quick! By the time I finished paying, my drinks were ready lol my husband got an Americano and I got a black sesame coffee that was amazing. The coffee was rich, flavorful and strong - with the sesame - it was such a nice balance. The inside was very clean, fresh and cool, and they have enough seating for you to bring your laptop and relax. highly recommend!

    Corn Viet latte
    Thuy Dan T.

    I stopped here for an afternoon pick me up. Atra is small but has a cute interior and the parking in the plaza can be busy but plenty of parking. The drinks are split between Viet coffee or matcha and have a variety of flavored cream tops to spruce it up. Drinks are $8+ depending on milk substitute, size and the specific flavoring. I got the seasonal cookie butter matcha cause I was in the mood for something sweet and this delivered! The cookie butter had biscoff crumbles on top and was delicious. The matcha tea flavor also shown through even with the sweetness. My partner got the corn Viet coffee and the coffee was strong! Loved it.

    Discovered this spot through TikTok and decided to give it a try We ordered two Cookie Butter Matchas and a Thai Iced Tea. We arrived around 1:35 PM and there was no line, aside from one other customer. The shop is conveniently located near the Amazon Fresh plaza with plenty of parking available. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the staff. The decor is very chic with earthy, cozy vibes. Our drinks were ready in about 5-7 minutes. Even before tasting the matcha, the vibrant color told me it was going to be good--and it absolutely was. The flavor was perfectly balanced: not too sweet, not too creamy, and made with high-quality matcha. There's plenty of seating for a quick hangout, which is a plus. The cookie butter flavor is seasonal, so definitely give it a try while you can and let me know what you think! I'll definitely be back to try more drinks from their menu.

    This place straight gas! I've been here maybe about 10+ times, so yeah haha. It's a little far from me, but it's worth the drive and I usually get California Fish Grill or Urban Plates while I'm there. Matcha: I've tried their matcha latte with oat milk, strawberry matcha, banana matcha & double matcha! -The matcha is super flavorful :) Ambiance: I like how everything is decorated! There's lego sets built in the cashier window, and it was also decorated for Tet! The decor is so aesthetic and they're working with what they got for a schmedium sized shop. Love the effort put in! Study Spot: It's a nice quiet place to study, there's a few tables inside, a bar, and a good amount of tables outside. It doesn't get too loud, so if you pop on some headphones you'll definitely lock in to your studies!

Steak was cooked perfectly, frittes could use some work. My friend had the poke and cleaned his plate (bowl?). Tried the matcha berries & cream which was nice. I also got an iced jasmine with a vanilla cloud (cold foam?). Very yummy and great to sip on while soaking in the great ambiance. It was pretty busy when I arrived on Tuesday late afternoon, but we were still able to snag a table pretty quickly. I'll be back :)

(Does anyone work anymore!? ) The longest I waited was an hour but that was 3 weeks after opening. And I can tell you, as long as you have the time it will be worth it. The overall aesthetic is coastal cowboy meets rustic modern. There is a ton of seating with a great outdoor patio. Parking in the back is pretty slim, so your best bet is street parking. You can either get lucky or park around the block, depending on the day / time. My absolute favorite coffee is the Hawaiian Cowboy. It flavor profile is a nutty tasting honey that's refreshing yet not overly sweet. You can actually taste the espresso without it being too powerful. This coffee is worth the wait. Their other drinks are also good, but this one takes the cake. They have a pretty expansive food menu as well, so it's much more than "just a coffee shop". And you can't forget about their baked goods. O M G. It's from a local bakery (sift bakery) who makes the best non basic treats around. Salty horse found its place at the top of my list in a very saturated coffee market.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the place, as soon as you walk in, there's potted plants, hanging plants, and greenery everywhere. It was filled with customers, but since it's a large space it didn't feel stuffy at all. The cashier's were both really nice and my iced coffee I ordered (horchata/cinnamon flavored) was amazing, and when I asked the barista if I could get "light ice" he gladly took half the ice out of the cup (and didn't charge me for it like Starbucks would)....I noticed as I was waiting for my drink to be made, all of the plants seemed to be for sale, which I thought was a rad idea! They also had tshirts/sweatshirts and coffee cups for sale of their logo/design. The prices of the coffee/tea drinks were on par with your typical coffee spot in Orange County (I think I paid $8-9 for mine)...I was REALLY tempted to try their sandwiches, but decided next time instead. The ONLY "constructive criticism" I would suggest is to offer another size (larger) for your drinks , instead of only 1 size available. The cup size they have is the size of a medium/grande size at Starbucks for comparison.

I feel like I have raved to multiple friends about Nep and how unique and delicious it is. Nep is located across from Mile Square Regional Park and has ample parking. Every time I have been there, it has always been busy, even with its generous indoor and outdoor seating. I also appreciate how on top of it the servers always are and how they make sure you are well taken care of. Nep is known for their Banh Mi Chao, which is kind of like Bo Ne but with an "everything but the kitchen sink" vibe. I definitely recommend first-time visitors try this dish since it is really what makes them stand out. The tenderness of the beef mixes so well with the sauce, tomatoes, and pâté, while the banh mi acts as the perfect dipping vessel that ties everything together. Besides the Banh Mi Chao, there are so many other dishes that are equally mouthwatering, such as their Crab Toast (with a generous amount of crab and a creamy mouthfeel) and their new steamed egg dish with pork floss (a salty flavor balanced with custardy egg). In my opinion, no matter what dish you decide to get, you can guarantee it will be well-seasoned. Really excited to continue being a repeat customer and trying everything under their roof.

The Pandan Old Fashioned is great if you prefer something on the stronger side. Then came dessert... and wow. The banana bread pudding and mango sticky rice were straight-up bangers. No notes. Big shoutout to Thomas as well. Despite the packed brunch rush, he stayed incredibly attentive and made sure our table was taken care of the entire time. Service like that makes the experience great. Nep knows exactly what they're doing. Already thinking about my next visit.

I have this belief that if a bakery has a perfect chocolate chip cookie, everything else is great. My definition of a chocolate chip cookie has to have a crunchy outside, a good balance and amount of dark and milk chocolate chips , perfect sweetness level with the perfect ratio of brown to white sugar for sweetness and chewiness and the obvious soft and gooey center. Paderias is a 9 out of 10 for me and it never disappoints. My 2nd fav is their triple chocolate. Those two are hands down my all time picks. Ordering is done through iPads which is simple to navigate. You have to come early to snag their items because they do sell out rather quickly esp on the weekends. The interior is very clean and beautifully designed. Plenty of parking and easy to spot the location!
