    Matcha Mochi Latte
    Rayanna B.

    My family and I have always been a big fan of all of their drinks. Earlier today, I tried their Matcha Mochi Latte and it did not disappoint. The matcha tasted like legit matcha and it was the perfect amount of creamy and sweet, just the way I like it. I am so glad they opened up this location closer to where I live because it's easier to find parking here compared to their other store.

    Finally got a chance to try Cafe De Mama's new location in East Hollywood! It's such a cute and cozy spot with a few tables and a spacious outdoor patio. They have a small parking lot that can fit 3 cars or so, but there's plenty of street parking in the nearby area. I ordered the green forest mochi latte which is a mugwort cream on matcha milk with 3 pieces of mochi. The mugwort cream is absolutely delicious and so earthy and creamy, and you can dip the mochi in the cream which is a fun touch. Overall such a delicious and unique drink!

    Cafe de Mama opened up in the former Boo's Philly Cheesesteaks location, and I was curious to see how the location would fare as a cafe. It's right on the corner of Virgil and Fountain Avenue, and they have added an outdoor patio area along with their limited indoor seating. They offer a variety of matcha and espresso-based drinks (though they only offer lattes if you are looking for espresso and milk combinations). While I have not tried them yet, they also offer croissant waffles (croffles) in both sweet and savory variations. I tried their black sesame cream latte, which had that nutty flavor that you would expect in a way that felt balanced by the other drink components. I've also had their matcha latte, which I thought was solid. I'm curious to try more of their menu on a future visit!

    New Cafe de Mama location! I love that they have a little lot for parking. It's a new location so it's not super busy so it's quiet and a nice place to study for now. I love the natural lighting and open window. They don't have much seating. They only have 3 tables but it seems more like a grab a coffee and catch up than sit and study place My go to is their black sesame cream top latte! They have just perfected the nutty black sesame taste with the creamy top. I will say their drinks are on the milkier side but their cream top is so good!

    Welcome to Cafe De Mama.

    All you need is a coffee, wifi and a dream. Without further ado, let's dive into this review. Cafe De Mama is a small brand new coffee corner shop in Los Feliz/East Hollywood section of LA. They offer a modest selection of coffee drinks (hot/cold), lattes, matcha and croffle. This spot used to be Boo's Cheesesteak. I was walking aimlessly one hot sunny Thursday afternoon, disoriented and thirsty. I stumbled upon this coffee shop and decided to grab a cold coffee drink. I walked-in and was perfunctorily greeted by a young le petite pinked haired lady. I perused their menu, and decided to order a Cold Brew. It's super concentrated, aroma and flavor are a bit intense despite the cream x sugar that I added. Even a sub par cold coffee is better than no coffee at all. Trust me, I know what a great coffee taste; after all I was bequeathed with a Yelp Elite Coffee Connoisseur 2025 award. The coffee shop is neat, spacious and has limited tables. However, they have a long outdoor bench available for coffee addicts. Lol. Staff were affable, competent, and professional. Interior decor is very minimal. Similarly, it has a very relaxing atmosphere. Prices were competitive and economically affordable. Rear parking available albeit limited to five car ports. Overall, I had a good order experience but not so much on the Cold Brew.

    Ice Black Sesame Latte, Cinnamon Honey Ginger Latte, Cream Cheese Everything Croffle
    Andrea G.

    Excited to have a yum new coffee shop near by! We ordered: - Black Sesame Latte (iced) - Cinnamon Honey Ginger Latte (hot)* - Cream Cheese Croffle* - Egg Salad Croffle My cinnamon honey ginger latte was delicious! That kick of ginger was exactly what I was looking for and I'm looking forward to having it again. The black sesame latte was potent and well done. The cream cheese croffle was simple and tasty, but I was surprised by the pieces of pear (could've been apple) in the egg salad croffle. Not my preference, so I would've enjoyed without it. The space is small but fresh, very simple and stylish overall! There is a very small parking lot attached.

    Stopped by Cafe De Mama on a Thursday morning before work and wow... so glad I did. I've been searching for a good black sesame latte spot nearby and this place officially became our new go-to. Got there around 7:30am and there were already a few people there, which honestly says a lot. Parking is on the smaller side. The place itself was very clean and has a pretty good-sized indoor space. They also have an outdoor area where people can just hang out, relax, and enjoy their drinks. I ordered the black sesame latte and the vanilla bean latte -- both were absolutely delicious. The black sesame latte especially was rich, smooth, and exactly what I was hoping for. The server was extremely friendly and welcoming too, which made the experience even better. Definitely coming back.

    Injeolmi Mochi Latte with Espresso
    Lauren C.

    I wish I lived closer because oh my god I love this place. -- the mochi! The injeolmi! The espresso! Everything is perfect and it's not too sweet which is the highest praise I can give. The barista behind the counter was super kind and place is friendly and bright overall too, was welcome pause for wonder and delight in my weekend. I'm so jaded by other places' costs that this feels like a bargain to boot. I'll be back as often as I can swing it :)

    My friend and I stopped by Cafe de Mama during their soft opening and really enjoyed the experience. We both ordered the Black Sesame Cream Lattes -- the black sesame flavor was rich and nutty, balanced nicely by the sweet and creamy foam on top. It's definitely more of an indulgent treat than an everyday drink for me, but absolutely delicious. We also shared the croffle with cream cheese filling. The texture was perfectly crispy on the outside while still soft and doughy inside. The cream cheese filling was rich without being overly heavy or overpowering. The shop itself is charming and cozy, and the bold blue roof gives it such a distinct personality. I'd definitely come back to try more items and support this lovely new spot.

    If you're tired of the same old coffee chains, you need to try Cafe De Mama. Come here to get the most unique latte in LA. We tried the Injeolmi Mochi Latte and added Espresso for $1, Black Sesame Mochi Latte, and the Strawberry Injeolmi Mochi Latte. Each drink was paired with a mochi skewer that you can dip into the drink for a delicious treat to go with your drink! Each drink was deliciously crafted by the barista! The flavors are so unique and delicious with an Asian twist. My favorite was the black sesame latte, the flavor balance is perfect and isn't overpowering. The ambience is tranquil and a a perfect place to relax and sip on your latte! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu!

    Matcha Mochi Latte Black Sesame Cream Latte
    Johanna G.

    The drinks are delicious! Especially the mochi they add on top, I didn't take a picture of it, but they're so addicting!! the Matcha I feel was better than the black sesame, but overall really good drink drinks. Service was good too. The people behind the counter were very friendly ambience is pretty chill and laid-back very clean and homie establishment.

    The color of this matcha instantly made my day. This brand-new spot serves up such fun, creative drinks. I tried a matcha latte that came with a stick of mochi to dunk right in, which I've never seen before. The matcha leans on the sweeter side, so if you're into a more earthy, umami-forward flavor, this might not be your go-to. There are a few tables inside, making it a nice place to work or study, and they have WiFi. Only downside is the parking, but prices are pretty reasonable overall.

    First time at this place and the strawberry Injeolmi was amazing! Even the barista suggested dipping it in the cream, which made it even more delicious. I'll definitely be back

    Love this coffee spot! Staff is always super friendly and it's my top 3 matcha places. There is…read morealso lots of street parking and a nearby 7/11 you can also park at which makes this convenient since west la parking usually sucks! I always get the matcha with extra cream top:) Definitely should be on everyone's matcha spots to try!

    Stopped by Stereoscope for a cortado and had a really enjoyable experience. One thing that…read moreimmediately stood out was the barista's knowledge. She was genuinely engaged in talking about coffee, understood the beans she was serving, and was able to answer questions without hesitation. That's becoming harder to find these days, and it definitely added to the overall experience. The cortado itself was well executed. The temperature was right where it should be, allowing the flavors to come through immediately without having to wait for the drink to cool down. I was able to clearly taste the notes in the coffee, and the balance between the espresso and milk was excellent. The body held together nicely throughout the drink and never felt thin or watered down. My only critique would be that the crema and microfoam leaned a little more matte and foamy than glossy. It wasn't enough to take away from the drink, but a slightly silkier, shinier texture would have elevated it even further. That said, this was an Ethiopian natural, which can be a bit trickier to dial in and pair with milk while still preserving the character of the coffee, so it's a fairly minor criticism. Overall, a very good cortado from a shop that clearly cares about coffee. Good execution, proper temperature, clear flavor separation, and knowledgeable staff always make for a better coffee experience.
