Wish they were closer to my house . I would be here daily ! My favorite drink is the Earl grey latte . I enjoy the foamy perfect blend so much . I have tried other places for this drink and it's not the same . This location is popular among students to come by and study . I also like that they have good seating options inside and outside. Always a nice time here .

Always a great cafe, i like their spanish lattes a lot!!! It's in a big plaza with plenty of parking and lots around it. They have one that has boba and one that specializes with coffee, both are great!

Mango refresher slush with boba Honeydew swirl with boba and without Matcha swirl with boba Honeydew is the best!

Steph C.

Fast service. I haven't been here for a while. Now you can order on the tablets (2 of them) which is more efficient. You can choose the sweet level (less/regular/more) for the slush. It's still sweet with the less sugar one. Looking forward for another level of sweetness coming out (minimal sugar? ).

2 strawberry milk teas with and without boba

Service was so kind this lovely person with short hair remade my milk tea to be strawberry 10/10 and it was quick and clean.

Francis T.

Honestly surprised my group and it was pretty good. The Oreo Taro and peach drink was top tier depending what you liked. The purvia milk tea was pretty good too. I wouldn't get the matcha again tho. Service was pretty fast and there was a kiosk. The place was simplistic was well.

Soft chewy boba in the strawberry slush. The Spanish latte is wonderful with the double shot espresso, condensed milk, Cinnaman stick, Quick service as they create your drink.

When I first came before I was into coffee like I do now, I was surprised how rich their regular latte was. I was used to Starbucks latte and didn't know the real stuff. Today, I am more into espresso and coffee and I still come back here. Their latte is so creamy and rich especially if you choose Spanish latte which they use condensed cream. Today I decided to try something different and tried the Rose flavored latte. Unfortunately I chose less sweetness and I think this is why I don't get much of rose flavor but the latte itself is same as usual which means they pull the espresso almost the same every time. The service is fast. I probably waited 3 min or so on Friday 7pm. It was crowded with people including families. This is a must try place in Gardena.

Alyssa P.

Pretty good! This place is super pretty on the inside too, so it's great if you want to take photos. I always try a place with the classic milk tea. Definitely good to try if you're in the area, but thought it was pretty standard. That being said, it's better than most other places in the area. 4/5

Celina C.

Yummmmmm Their rose milk tea was sooooo good! Last time I came here was when they just opened and I went to visit again recently and it was just as good! Very quick service also. They have machines to order in and they call out the names. Inside looks like a good place for study sesh

This is such a good place of you want to chill and relax. Drinks here are absolutely delicious. Would really recommend this place if you need a space to study the lights here make it feel cozy. Service was excellent! The workers were so nice and gave good recommendations for first timers.

Oreo ube swirl and honeydew swirl (no whipped cream )

Café Pruvia is definitely one of my go-to spots when I'm craving boba or a refreshing drink after dinner. The place always has a nice buzz with people studying, working, or just hanging out with friends, but there always seems to be plenty of tables to sit and relax. Ordering is super easy through their tablet system. I love that it has pictures and descriptions for each drink, which makes trying something new really simple. You can also earn points if you come back regularly, which is a nice bonus for frequent visitors like me. This time I got the Oreo Ube Swirl, and it was such a unique treat. The flavors were well balanced, sweet and creamy without either the oreo or ube overpowering the other. Overall, Café Pruvia is a consistent favorite for me, and I'll definitely keep coming back to try more of their drinks!

I ordered the passion fruit green apple tea and it was delicious! I also added some lychee jelly and I'm going to be a customer here forever. This place is a hidden gem in Gardena!

Located in a small marketplace in Gardena, Cafe Pruvia has become one of my favorite spots for drinks in the LA area. I was surprised to find a new place opening during this COVID crisis, but since going there I wish they opened sooner. I came on a weekend with a couple of friends, and we got the iced matcha latte and Spanish lattes (hot & cold). We all enjoyed our drinks! I personally had the matcha latte, and they delicately balanced the matcha flavor and the sweetness of the drink. Highly recommended, staff were very friendly and informative, and the place was kept spotless. Looking forward to chilling there when they open up! read more

We were in Gardena area and wanted some REAL coffee! (Ps. Starbucks isn't legit coffee) So we yelped for coffee shops and found this location that's "hot and new!" And we are so happy to have found this hidden gem! Due to the COVID-19, their set up is very accommodating! You enter one door to place your order & then you exit and wait outside til your order is ready and a employee will bring it to you outside. Their coffee is so so good! We first tried them yesterday & got it again today. Today, my friend and I got the Iced Coconut Latte & the Lavender Latte. They are all oh so good! We will def be back again! read more

At any new coffee shop I always try to order plain coffee weather it be a cold brew or americano. First, its because I really enjoy black coffee but mostly it helps me gauge their quality of their coffee beans. Nonetheless that is what I did and Cafe Pruvia has very quality coffee. In their hot drinks its not to acidic or sour but it isn't to bitter. In their cold brew the flavor of the beans stands out even more and you can taste how well rounded their coffee is. If you want quality coffee with even better customer service, this is the place to go!!!!! read more

The first thing I tried was the Sizzling Mushroom Gravy over Crispy Rice; The dish was to die for and my personal favorite thing I tried. I don't even know how to describe how flavorful and well put together the gravy was with mushroom pieces that were perfectly soft and easy to eat. Next was the salad which was so fresh, citrusy, and tasty; It was salty and all the flavors complemented each other so well forming a perfect citrusy salad. After that was the shrimp tempura. It was not too fried/flaky. It was kind of like a taquito. The shrimps flavor was very fresh with a complementary umami flavor. The Sardine Sashimi was super high quality. It was super soft and fatty and ended with a heavy pleasant fishy flavor. The miso grilled cod was great. Not much to say about it was almost creamy and the miso was good. I ate the skin too and it tasted great. The main part of this place is the soba. The kikouchi soba are thicker 100% buckwheat noodles that were very well cooked and pleasant to eat. The Plum "Ume" broth was so refreshing and nice. I ate it cold; I probably would have preferred it hot but the is just a personal preference. The Ginger Pork was great. The pork itself was super gingery without being too pungent. The shredded cabbage was super easy to pick up and eat and the side of noodle salad and miso soup were great complements to the meal. I can tell no corners were cut anywhere and that Otafuku puts a little of effort into every meal they prepare. There is great care for all of the preparations and it was a very special meal. I felt like I was in Japan for a second as the feel of the restaurant is very "homey" and the ambiance is a nice cheerful atmosphere.

I always order it when I go to Thai restaurants or places that have it. So I HAD to try theirs. My husband and I went last Wednesday night to order the mango sticky rice but they had sold out already. (The worker recommended I call them prior to going there to see if they still have some available) The worker was nice and friendly. The next day, I went with my kids because now I HAD to try it. This time, I called prior to see if they still had some on hand. When we arrived to the restaurant, the mango sticky rice was already stacked in containers ready to go - which is new to me. I've never seen that before. I ordered 2, we didn't order anything else. Idk if I had a bad batch or what but my kids & I thought it was ehh. It was .. okay I guess? But it wasn't the best we've had. Probably an unpopular opinion because all the reviews I see state it's the best they've had and i just didn't taste that. We didn't even finish it. The worker the second time I went wasn't the friendliest either. Parking is great since it's part of a big shopping center. There's tables & chairs outside as well where you can eat, which is where my kids & I ate. Tables are shaded so that's good.

Noon Korean Bingsoo House

This adorable, retro-style dessert shop is…read moretucked away in a small plaza filled with other Korean restaurants and shops, making it a fun place to explore. I usually go to Oakobing in Ktown, but I'm so happy to have a place this good much closer to home. My husband and I recently stopped by for the injeolmi bingsoo, and it absolutely blew my mind. It came topped with red beans, a rich peanut butter-like paste (I'm not exactly sure what it was, but it was delicious), a generous dusting of injeolmi powder, and condensed milk on the side to drizzle over everything. As you dig into the fluffy shaved ice, you're rewarded with surprise chunks of chewy mochi hidden throughout, and I believe there were even more red beans waiting at the bottom. Every bite was packed with flavor and texture. It was so good that I'm craving another bowl just thinking about it. *Drools* I'm not sure how busy it gets during the day since we've only visited after dinner, but we've always found plenty of parking. It's the perfect dessert spot to cool off on a hot summer evening, and definitely one I'd recommend if you're in the area.

There is a little history buried inside Noon Korean Bingsoo House. Before Noon, this same…read morestorefront was Oncle's Cafe, a Korean inspired dessert and coffee shop that opened here in 2022. Somewhere along the way Oncle became Noon, the cakes and coffee gave more ground to bingsoo and the place changed enough that I still occasionally catch myself comparing what is there now with what I remember being there before. That may be part of why I have kept coming back. I remember Oncle being one of those easy little places where the service felt unusually attentive. Young guys behind the counter who seemed genuinely engaged, checking on things, keeping the room moving, making the whole experience feel cared for. Noon still occupies the same address and the bones of a good dessert shop are obviously still there, but the experience today feels considerably more transactional. The bingsoo itself is not bad. The machine is doing what it is supposed to do. The ice has that fine, soft, almost snow like texture that separates good Korean bingsoo from somebody simply attacking a block of ice with machinery. The problem, for me, is everything they put on top of it. I have tried enough of the menu at this point that I don't think this is a matter of choosing the wrong flavor. Strawberry, mango, the more elaborate combinations they consistently lean too sweet. Syrups, sauces, creams, fruit. Eventually all that sugar begins flattening the very thing that makes bingsoo so good. The delicacy of the ice itself. Instead of tasting individual ingredients, you start tasting sweetness in several different costumes. That is where Noon loses me compared with the better versions of this dessert. A great bingsoo lets you keep eating because nothing overwhelms anything else. Here, a few spoonfuls in, I'm usually wishing someone had simply stopped adding things. Then there is the experience of going. Parking in this plaza at the wrong hour can turn dessert into a minor logistical exercise. The lot is tight, dinner traffic makes it worse and the alternative is hunting around outside. Once you make it in, seating operates with that awkward first come first served ambiguity where someone who ordered after you can apparently have a table secured while you stand there holding dessert and waiting for another group to leave. The room itself often feels oddly unattended. Tables linger before being cleared. Surfaces can feel sticky. Nobody seems particularly responsible for making the dining room feel reset between customers. When it gets crowded, all of that compounds. People hovering for seats, groups talking over one another, trays sitting around, everyone negotiating the room themselves. None of this makes Noon terrible. That is probably the important distinction. The actual shaved ice is good. Some of the combinations are enjoyable. There are plenty of people who will probably prefer the sweeter style more than I do. And clearly the place has found an audience. Noon's current social presence identifies it as a Gardena bingsoo shop at this same Western Avenue location. I just find myself wondering why I keep making the effort. Maybe some of it is nostalgia for Oncle. Maybe I keep hoping the next visit will recover whatever made the old place feel more personal. But when getting dessert requires fighting for parking, negotiating a table, sitting in a room that feels half managed and then eating bingsoo that is considerably sweeter than I want it to be, there are easier ways to spend an evening.

I came to Cafe Pruvia with my friend, who's a regular here, and she's always raving about it. After visiting, I can see why she likes to stop by. The drink menu is pretty standard for a boba shop, but they offer a solid variety, so you'll definitely find something you like. I went with a taro swirl with less sweetness, and it hit the spot. There are plenty of seats, and it's surprisingly quiet, so you could easily get some work done or even study here. It made for the perfect place to catch up with my friend. As for the service, it was decent. We did wait a little longer than expected, but there was a larger group ahead of us, and it looked like there were only two people working. Totally understandable, so no complaints there. Overall, I'll definitely be back! It's a great spot to relax and enjoy a drink. read more

Unfortunately downgrading to 3 stars. The reason being this place is extremely stingy with their boba (see photos). Every time I come here, I pay extra for double serving boba, which is fine, but my drink is ALMOST $7 and the boba amount is still so measly. When you pay for extra boba, you shouldnt walk away looking at the cup wondering if you got extra boba. It doesn't make for a good experience. They say their scoop is measured but I know from past boba work experience that those scoops dont pick up much with all that liquid and syrup. I hope Cafe Pruvia will improve their boba serving because there's many other boba places in the same plaza/nearby area to support and their boba servings are more reasonable in comparison. read more

Wow! This place is amazing... I can't wait to come back. Definitely a 5-star boba/coffee shop. If you are looking for high-quality drinks, beautiful interior and great customer service, this place is it! Cafe Pruvia is locally owned by three brothers. You can tell they really care about their customers and want to make them happy. They told us to come back once dine-in resumes because there are tons of outlets... a great spot for studying & work! I really like their green milk tea boba with lychee jelly. I tried the coffee also and it is so good. Don't waste your money on more expensive Starbucks... high quality coffee for way cheaper at Cafe Pruvia!!! read more

I finally got around to trying this place and it did not disappoint! Their coffee and attention to flavors and is on another level. This is truly a little gem of a place, and I love that they are open earlier than their other store next door. 5/5- Pruvia Latte: This drink is soooooo good! For anyone who loves coffee with a little cream is perfect for you. The espresso and foam compliments each other so well and neither drowns out the other. I will def be back often and look forward to trying more drinks! read more

As a boba connoisseur I wanted to try Pruvia which I discovered by chance during a visit to Gardena. I ordered the Grapefruit Crema with oat milk, a frozen granulated drink with the consistency of an Icee or Slurpee. It was FANTASTIC! Refreshing and flavorful, I didn't want it to end. Pruvia's decor is classy and elegant, and the service was friendly and quick. Even though I live about 25 miles from Pruvia, I'm planning to go back again soon for what is now my new #1 favorite boba drink! read more
