I am not sure if it was just me or the default taste of VTM coffee (cold) is really sweet. I'll ask someone if their hot drink like their latte tastes as sweet as the cold coffee. read more

Such a convenient spot to get coffee while charging my car. Unfortunately, everytime I come the employees are so rude. They seem bothered by any questions asked about the menu or drinks. Never smile. The atmosphere is so unwelcoming that it makes you not want to come back. Please work on your customer service. The coffee is mediocre but with bad service and bad attitude the coffee seems even worse. read more

I've only ever ordered their Avocado Toast and Light Vietnamese Latte, but every time it's so damn good that I just had to write this review. I don't know exactly how to describe the latte, but it's got that perfect flavor, texture, and temperature that I always hope for when I order a latte. The Avocado Toast always has the perfect amount of seasoning, and the toast is always both perfectly crunchy yet light and fluffy so it doesn't scratch up my mouth. Today while eating and drinking my order, I couldn't help but say "mmm" the whole meal. Luckily I live by myself so I could make a fool of myself over it, haha. read more

This was probably the best coffee I have ever had. I have the Vietnamese Latte and it was amazing I honestly could not stop eating "mmmm" after every sip and I am PICKY about my coffee. The matcha was insane. Cute little grab and go spot. I didn't try the food but will try it next time we are in California because we will stop there again. Service was friendly and it was quick. Also this shopping center is adorable, lots of shops to walk around and enjoy your delicious coffee. read more

My favorite coffee shop!!! The baristas are so sweet and welcoming, they know my name and order when I come in. The food is delicious and my coffee is always perfect no matter who makes it (VTM with sea salt foam... highly recommend). They always seem like they are having so much fun behind the bar and it makes my day every time. I can't recommend this blk dot location enough!! read more

im a fan of blk dot coffee. this is the closest location to me. just finished a yoga class and this girl needs coffee not matcha lol my go to here is actually their iced teas, but again i needed some coffee. i ordered the iced tiramisu latte einspanner. it wasnt as sweet or tasted like tiramisu, but it was still a good latte. but will stick to ordering my normal iced lychee peach green tea service was good. the drinks tho, were coming out a bit slow and out of order .. parking: no issues with parking. huge lot read more

When I came in, the cashier (with braces, and bad eyeliner) was terse, dismissive and un-engaging. Me: hi how are you? Her: what do you want?": Me: oh... I guess just an iced vanilla latte with almond milk, please Me: okay, your total -- Me: I actually also wanted a bagel Her: -sigh- Then while waiting my order, the barista makes my drink wrong, doesn't add enough ice as if it's coming out of her paycheck. As I'm leaving, I say "thank you" anyway and was simply met with "mhmm" Don't waste your time coming here to an unwelcome atmosphere with employees severely lacking in basic customer decency. read more

Very yumy and friendly staff. Will come back! Got a vtm and cookie. Short wait and decent prices! Thanks blk dot

service was super friendly and fast! i was welcomed by the staff when entering and the barista with glasses and braces helped me out, she was super knowledgeable about the drinks and very patient which i appreciated.

I don't ever leave reviews but this was such an amazing experience. I came in around 9:30am and orders the vtm einspanner. The coffee was AMAZING, and the customer service was even better they explained everything so well and they were all kind and ready to help with any questions I had. If you are looking for a great coffee shop with clean vibes and nice and helpful baristas definetly come here. read more

Not my favorite BlkDot. I have been to a couple different ones and although it was clean and the staff was friendly, the coffee itself wasn't that great tasting. I got the iced VTM that I normally get, but this one tasted burned or strange. My wife got the VTM chai and it had a similar problem with taste. Maybe a bad day, but the drinks were not really drinkable. read more

Yuzu Mango Matcha - I'd rate it a 6.5/10. I personally liked the yuzu pieces and mango (syrup?) at the bottom. As a matcha enjoyer, the yuzu pieces were super unique and I felt like they were very fresh. Really good price too for the larger size we got (~$7.25) but I did think it was very sweet. Iced Vietnamese Coffee - My dad who drinks Viet coffee a lot rated it a 7/10 just because he thought it wasn't strong. Take that with a grain of salt though; he's from Vietnam and knows his Viet coffee lol read more

Black Dot Coffee has become a regular part of my morning routine--I absolutely love going there. I usually order the VT Matcha, and it's honestly one of the best drinks I've had. It's the perfect blend of matcha and Vietnamese coffee--smooth, strong, and just the right balance of earthy and bold flavors. Sometimes I'll add an extra shot if I want that extra kick, and it never disappoints. Even when it's busy (which it often is), it's totally worth the wait. The quality is consistent, and I always leave satisfied. If you're into matcha, Vietnamese coffee, or just looking for something unique and delicious, I highly recommend giving the VT Matcha a try! read more

There was only one or two customers before us so they took our order quickly and helped me decipher some of the different latte drinks they had. I ordered a tomato avocado toast and confirmed I was getting that one instead of the hot honey bacon. When they called our order I realized they had given me a hot honey bacon toast instead so I went to ask them for the correct order and I feel like the guy who worked there was being defensive and slightly rude instead of apologizing / acknowledging the mistake and just correcting the order. I also said I can't eat the avocado and hot honey due to a flowery restriction so I wanted to confirm they would give me a completely new slice of toast and not just change the toast topping and he said yes. But then they ended up putting my corrected toast in the same box which I noticed because when I was eating it there was some honey on the bottom of the box.. luckily it didn't touch my toast so it was fine but I just thought the whole situation could have been handled better. The toast did taste good and so did my latte but lost one star due to the customer service. read more

First time here I came for strawberry lychee jasmine tea but they didn't have it, got the lychee peach black tea but instead of peach I added strawberry, it was delicious and lastly our hot honey avocado toast got stolen. We got our drinks and went outside to took a photos, 3 min passed by and realize we didn't get out toast, went back inside and realized someone took our food, lucky the girl made us a new one... people should be shameless of themselve, taking other food !!!! read more

The service here has been mixed for me. I have had staff that have openly greeted me and others who appeared to be inconvenienced at my arrival. The price point on the food is REALLY high (e.i. $11+ for a bagel sandwich) but the drinks are around the expected inflated price. I think the one thing that rubbed me through wrong way about this place was the way they handled a situation where I arrived with my dog. No signage indicates that dogs aren't allowed and there have been times where he was welcome and other times where the staff was very rude about it. Overall, it's just another overpriced coffee shop and know it's (not usually) dog-friendly. read more

Stopped by here for a lunch break nearby and got a black VTM with some added coffee jelly. The rich, bold flavor of the coffee and the added milk was wonderful, and the addition of coffee jelly added a delightful twist. The jelly, a welcome departure from traditional coffee accompaniments, offered a unique textural experience that elevated the overall enjoyment of the beverage with a little bit of a bitter coffee hint to it. The place is very small but the drinks were made pretty efficiently, the staff were super nice since it was my first time and the menu was a bit overwhelming! read more

Unique and delicious teas combo's and coffee. I had a passion fruit tea minus the boba. It was pretty good. The staff was super cool and the orders came out fairly quickly. There is no indoor seating, just a table or two outside. They have light sandwiches and such. Nothing too major, just things to go with your drinks. Pretty neat spot. read more

While picking up some items at Trader Joe's next door, I decided to grab some coffee here. I usually only drink hot coffee drinks but for some reason I was in the mood for something cold. I ordered an iced Spanish latte. My main complaint about iced coffee drinks is that they always have far too much ice. This was no exception but it was a nice blend of bold coffee, condensed milk, and the perfect amount of cinnamon. The barista was exceptionally perky and made my drink very quickly. There is no seating inside this tiny place but there's several patio tables out in front of the store. With the cup over half full of ice my drink was finished in a couple minutes but it was really quite good. read more

Located on 2nd & PCH, near the Trader Joe's, this cute little coffee shop serves Vietnamese coffee, teas, and pastries, with milk alternatives. I got: - Spiced honey oat latte (comes with oat milk): A nice spiced kick with a touch of sweetness. I'm excited to come back and try other flavours on their menu, especially their hot teas. - Orange scone: Wasn't too dry or cloyingly sweet, so I think I've found my go-to scone place when I'm nearby. They ask if you want your pastry heated up (which is something I always appreciate and prefer), so I had a very nice warmed up scone to eat. There's limited seating inside and a few tables on the patio for outdoor dining; with quick and friendly service, you shouldn't be waiting more than 5 minutes for your fresh drink. None of the baristas made me feel rushed in any way and made sure to announce my name/drink/food when it was ready. It's airy and open inside, with two doors for entrance/exit, and I felt it was handicap accesible with the height of the counter. There's definitely plenty of parking, although you may have to park off to the side depending on when you come due to the Trader Joe's nearby. Overall, I'd recommend going here - it's worth it especially if you're in the area and are looking for a good coffeehouse to pick-up from and walk around the area. read more

This is exactly what I look forward to every weekend. Great drinks and fast service. Minimal seating available outdoors. You can't go wrong with any of their drinks!! My favs are listed below: - VTMatcha, an iced matcha Vietnamese coffee. I like mine with sea salt cream and coconut milk! - Iced matcha latte with condensed milk. Yummy, creamy goodness. - VTM Tiger, an iced Vietnamese coffee latte with brown sugar jelly and brown sugar syrup. ENJOY! :))) read more

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed my coffee from Blk Dot. I got the Iced Chocolate Cereal VTM Latte and it tasted like the milk after you've eaten Cocoa Puffs! It has the coffee taste but also the sweetness of chocolate but did not taste like a mocha which I loved! They have the drink nailed to perfection. They also have WiFi but no indoor seating just outside tables and chairs. I do have to say that it is a little on the pricier side for some coffee and the menu is so small to read!! They definitely need a bigger menu or a menu to look at it when you go up to the counter. The person who took my order was very friendly and my cofffee was made very promptly. read more

Came in to grab a coffee and a matcha. The ladies were knowledgeable but didn't seem very friendly. The coffee was .... let's say, that I took one sip, then another to be sure, then left it on the side walk near a trash bin because there was no way I was going to drink near that. The matcha was decent, but if you ask for light ice, they give you less and leave a space on top rather than actually give you your money's worth. Interesting. The place had only one customer. Quiet. Free wifi (according to their sign) Never again. Don't recommend. read more

We landed at Blk Dot Coffee, and we say landed because we discovered this location on our way to another. Thus, it wasn't on our list! It's in a plaza near PCH and 2nd St. Blk Dot Coffee is also located in Irvine Spectrum. We ordered a hot Spicy Honey Oat--our usual drink, but we spiced it up! The barista recommended this drink and explained that the honey was infused with a spice (unfortunately we don't know what exactly). First sip, you truly get that spicy feeling, and it's not a cinnamon burn but rather a subtle picante taste. It takes a few sips to adjust to the different texture (Spice and coffee? We didn't know that mixed!) The barista recommended it iced, maybe to blend the slight burning feeling, but we felt like a hot drink matched the early gloom. We also ordered their hot Vietnamese Coffee with oat milk. According to the shop, Vietnamese Coffee is their signature and go to drink. You definitely got the strong hit of espresso which helps you stay awake for the day! Definitely a must get. For pastries and food, we ordered a fresh and savory Cinnamon bun! And ordered an avocado toast which was definitely tasty. They had plenty of options on their menu that are worth trying, so we will definitely go back to check them out! They also have healthy breakfast options too! There's no inside seating, but they do have several spots outside, but it's definitely a grab and go location. There's also tons of parking. As for the quality and flavor, this place is worth checking out! read more

One of my fav coffee spots, esp for Viet coffee. Their breakfast items and pastries are also really good. I usually get an iced VTM with sea salt foam, but I also recommend the VTM Matcha, tiramisu latte einspanner, or mango yuzu (I think it's seasonal tho). Service is pretty fast too, even during the morning rush. read more

BLK Dot's signature Iced VTM is my favorite! "Our take on traditional Vietnamese coffee" --- made with an intense slow dripped concentrate of house-roasted Arabica beans designed for peak caffeine with their sweetened condensed milk engineered from scratch and their house creamer. It is so rich and so bold..: just so good! Vietnamese coffee taken to new heights. Their only location in Long Beach/ LA County. The rest are in the OC. In the shopping center next to Trader Joe's: Parking is plentiful and there are a few tables on the patio for outdoor dining. Service is quick and friendly. Highly recommended! "Slowly dripped. Highly caffeinated. Extremely concentrated" read more
