Cafe Spot - 这家店的血包饮品和盐酥鸡真的好吃又好喝，喝起来没有特别甜，超赞！！盐酥鸡外皮炸得超级好吃，绝了！！超级超级推荐！ - Cafes Near Me - Temple City, California

Just stopped by and learned that they are no longer serving food and are transitioning to a "drinks only" concept.

Had to try one of the newest HK style cafes in town so I took my dad here for lunch a few days ago. He ordered an earl grey milk tea with the sizzling chicken/pork dish and enjoyed everything, despite saying it was a bit greasy. I ordered the baked pork chop rice but it came out with noodles instead of rice, not the end of the world so I didn't bother to tell the waiters. Took a few bites and there was a bit of a sour taste to it. I wasn't sure if it was the food or the tomato sauce but I foolishly ate a little more. Also ordered their egg waffle, which lacked the legit texture and flavor. Two hours later, I had severe abdominal pain and ended up vomiting and having diarrhea. My dad didn't try any of my food and was fine; should've trusted my gut (hah). Seems like improper food prep might be an issue based on a few other reviews. Hope not too many others will also have the same experience as I did. read more

Have been waiting for the store to open after seeing the name put on outside. The menu is fairly small and the price is pretty good in this area. I ordered the check steaks and to my surprise it came with two good size pieces. The skin was crisp and chicken was cooked well. The minced beef sauce was good too. The curry sauce was in good portions and a bit sauce left overall. We don't usually have that many curry sauce left when we had it in other places. Tofu steaks with minced beef sauce is a good combination. Didn't think they can match well. Drinks are cheaper than other places in the area and they still have the good flavor. read more

Decent Asian café joint, to be honest, nothing special, they have cheap basic teas for 1.99 but they taste like cheap make up or cheap perfume. It wasnt always like that, it used to be delicious, but not anymore. Food is decent. Used to be better, they also raised the prices quite drastically. I used to frequent the place but I dont think so anymore. Parking situation is tough, if youre lucky, yoy may get a spot in the rear parking lot or street, otherwise, expect a walk. Restaurant interior is ok, not much decor, a couple of arcade machines, its alright. Nothing special about this place, used to be better, but quality has gone downhill and prices have gone up. You can find better places. read more

Located on the corner of Las Tunas and Temple City Blvd., it has a prime spot in Temple City's little downtown area. Free public parking lots in the back for several blocks. Easy to find parking. We dropped in for a quick order of the mango smoothie and taro smoothie. Both were sweet and fresh. Staff was nice but short staffed. The place had about 4 tables occupied around 3 pm. They appear to have a full food menu but we didn't try it. Maybe next time. read more

Very pleasantly surprised by this café. I honestly came in with no expectations, but everything we ordered was really good. It has a Hong Kong-style café vibe, and we ordered the steak on a hot plate. I was expecting a thin, low-quality cut, but it turned out to be a good size and very flavorful. The egg waffle didn't disappoint either--crispy on the outside and soft inside. The biggest surprise was their tea. Various teas are only $1.99, so we even double-checked with the waiter to make sure the price was correct. At that price, I expected something basic, but the tea was actually better than some $5 boba teas. I tried the jasmine and osmanthus tea, and both were excellent. The place wasn't too crowded, which made it comfortable to stay longer without feeling rushed. It's kid- and family-friendly, yet not too noisy--something I really appreciated. read more

So this new place has been a bit of an enigma. I saw the temporary sign go up while they were remodeling and it got me really excited because I loved the old Cafe Spot that was in Alhambra on Valley. This new place has the same name and the sign uses the same font so it had me thinking the OG place was rising like a phoenix. But shortly after they opened, someone asked if they were the same place and they said No. Plus they didn't have any food and were just serving drinks. Needless to say I was bummed. Flash forward to a month later and my friend says, "let's go try it, they have food now!" and the menu looks similar to the old place. Huh? Confused, we made our way down there and the menu was indeed very very similar. Hmmm. We ordered some of the old favorites such as the minced beef and the short ribs. I can't say the food was as good as before but it was close and perhaps the kitchen is still getting up to speed. My friend went back soon after and asked them if they were the same and this time the said they are. Strange but hopefully that's true because Cafe Spot was so beloved and served simple but fantastic comfort food. We will definitely return to see how they progress. read more

Excellent food just like the old cafe spot. Must get the egg pancake and beef brisket curry. Business isn't great and definitely could use your support. read more

I am beyond excited that Cafe Spot is back! I used to go to their old location in Alhambra and was devastated when they closed down during the pandemic. The menu is different, but the owner is the same and they brought back some favorites from the old place. According to the waitress, they are planning on slowly expanding the menu. The inside is nice, clean, and simple. My party ordered six dishes: red wine braised rib steak, curry beef brisket, tofu steak with minced beef sauce, baked pasta with bolognese, popcorn chicken, and egg waffle. Everything was delicious. The rib steak and bolognese pasta were the stand outs for me. The rib steak was super tender with a flavorful sauce. The bolognese is really cheesy and their sauce is much better than other Hong Kong cafes. The egg waffle is another must. The edges are crispy but the inside stays fluffy and bouncy. The drinks are very cheap and yummy. Everything was very reasonably priced. Cafe Spot is taking back its spot as my favorite Hong Kong cafe in the 626. I can't wait for them to expand the menu. read more

Saw this place on a few Tic Tock videos and decided to give this place a try. The taste of the food was great and would return again. I took away one star because I believe they forgot my food and it took two ask from our server to g eat my food. By the time my food arrived my wife was done with her meal. read more

Great arcade machine. There are 2 emulated street fighter machines at this location. The food and drink is also good. read more

Cafe Spot - Drink - Cafes Near Me - Temple City, California

My best friend bought me drinks from Cafe Spot multiple times, so I know that their jasmine green milk tea is AMAZING. So yummy!! And the price of $2.99 milk tea is unbeatable!!?!?! What?!?! Such a good deal and such a good drink?!?!?! I also tried their popcorn chicken and it was yummy. I finally got to visit Cafe Spot myself, and I ordered a Golden Black Milk Tea less sweet with highland barley. Their barley topping is popping barley by the way. The flavor of the milk tea was so good, but it was much too sweet for my liking, so I went back and I want to give major thanks to David who SO kindly remade my drink to be less sweet. He was so kind and understanding about it and didn't make me feel bad at all for asking for a remake. He even made sure I was happy with the drink before I left, so huge thanks to David! I will be back. The space is very big! Definitely check out Cafe Spot! read more

Cafe Spot - Braised beef rice - Cafes Near Me - Temple City, California

Seen this spot for a while in temple city, finally decided to come in and the food was great, prices for drinks were none you've ever seen for years! Service was fast and friendly as well as the ambiance. It's sometimes loud depending on the people here but it makes it feel lively and friendly. I had the chance to play the darts for a free item or a 10% off for everyone in the restaurant, I swear I hit the bullseye but at least I got a free item. 10/10 would come back for the nostalgic food as well as the friendly service and great priced drinks! read more

So happy they returned after closing during COVID! Food is delicious and hits a nostalgic spot. The Hainan chicken and mango pomelo sago drink were my favorite! read more

Very disappointed today. Their services are very below Average, I have to constantly ask for help like "water, check, Togo boxes". The waiter (a boy with glasses) he is not attentive at all. Very unprofessional and not experienced. The restaurant is not busy at all, but I feel like they are having a hard time to take care of their customers. Asked for pork chop steak, we are out of pork chop. Wowooowoowow! I am very surprised. Their drinks have a lot of artificial favor in them, really not a fan of their drink. The place is clean and some of the chairs are nicer than others, very interesting. Honestly, I probably won't come back again. read more

Great price and great service. Great tea selections. Can't beat the price 1.99-2.99 per drink read more

Waited 30 minutes for them to tell me they were out of the minced meat rice. Not even an apology.

Instagram : @yeapeats Stopped by during lunch on a Saturday since my workplace is right across the street. Even though they're still in their soft opening phase, there was a surprising and steady flow of customers coming in -- always a good sign. The drink prices were unreal in the best way: $1.99 for teas, $2.99 for milk teas, and just $3.99 for specialty drinks like mango pomelo sago. In this economy, that's practically unheard of. I ordered the grilled pork chop and the beef tendon shank curry. Pork chop was solid -- flavorful and well-cooked -- but the curry? Absolutely amazing. Rich, savory, and full of tender meat. Portions were generous, too. One thing I hope they improve as they get more established: adding photos to the menu. It would be super helpful to have a visual reference, especially when trying something new. Service was definitely a bit slow, but I chalk that up to soft opening growing pains. Staff was friendly and trying their best, so I'm confident it'll improve over time. I'll definitely be back -- this spot is perfect for lunch breaks, and with prices and flavors like this, it's hard to beat. read more

Great food! Parking isn't so great as the rear parking lot isnt that convenient since there isn't easy access and you have to walk around. Drink prices are amazing and they're all pretty good! The quantity of the popcorn chicken is quite large compared to other cafés and their prices. read more

I normally do not write reviews but this place was so bad that I had to. This was my first time at this location and we ordered a beef brisket curry to share with a drink, nothing else. I was satisfied with the portion and drink but the curry was SO sour it was unbearable (and I'm normally not a picky eater) What got me even MORE upset was when I told the waiter that it was sour, he went into the kitchen, tried it himself, WALKED OUT TO US with a disgusted facial expression AS WELL and said "Yeah it is kinda sour, I think they used the old sauce today", and then WALKED AWAY. I'm Chinese and I understand sometimes the service is not the best as I am used to it, but this, was TERRIBLE. Now at first I was curious why it was so empty in there on a Sunday afternoon, but now I know why. TLDR: Horrible food, horrible service, don't come here read more

Similar menu with the OG Cafe Spot in Alhambra prior to the pandemic. The chicken steak, mixed steaks and the wine beef ribs tasted exactly like the original restaurant. I highly recommend their baked pork chop rice and pasta too. $1.99 tea too, how do you beat that? read more

I came to try this place after reading all the good reviews. Come for the cheap drinks but not for the food. Garden and Alice's kitchen have way better food and better variety. The cleanliness of this place is questionable. We sat at a table in the corner and then realized there was water all over the floor. We moved. When I went to the bathroom, same, water on the floor and pretty icky. I don't think they clean it regularly. The drinks are cheap but the food is very mediocre. The menu is also limited. The egg waffles were good but the steak was so so. They also had trouble customizing the food if you had special requests which I never had a problem with at any other hk cafe. read more

While I tried to dine at the adjacent Alice Kitchen, the wait was an hour. We ended up saw Cafe Spot was only 20% full. We were surprised their food were pretty good and the drinks are great price $2.99 for a milk tea and tasted good too. The service was good too. read more

Came here for free Street Fighter. But food is good and good service. Good ambiance's

We love this spacious and yummy restaurant! Discovered it by accident. It has different choices of food and drinks. Fast service and food was great! Chicken katsu was juicy and crispy plus comes with veg! Curry fish balls was yummy. There are games, crawl machine for kids, plus darts if your bill is $30 n up. Will be back! read more

We are so happy that we found Cafe Spot again! This restaurant used to be in Alhambra but was later closed. Tonight we dined at Cafe Spot and we are pleased with the food, service, and price. The staff was very nice and pleasant. Place was clean. Food was great (especially the Teppanyaki NY steak for $22.95 with peppercorn sauce). Kids loved the egg waffles, and the Jasmine Green Iced Tea was only $2.99. Such a great deal! We'll definitely comeback back. read more

Alice's kitchen was quite the wait so we hopped next store to here. Pretty condensed menu. We ordered the curry fishballs, xlb, hainan chicken/bbq pork rice and tender/tripe soup noodles. All were ok. Surprised they didn't carry the typical cafe milk tea, but the 3 flavors we choose were all decent. Place is new, hopefully they'll stick around read more

This is the same cafe spot that was in Alhambra. The flavor and dishes are the same as the old Alhambra location. The egg waffles are delicious and great deal on the drinks. Highly recommend. read more

Been here once during the soft opening and came back because the food was really good and also really reasonably priced. Nice interior lighting and good vibes. Drinks are also super cheap like we're talking $4 for the mango pomelo sago which is arguably probably their best drink for way cheaper than the competition. This place is kinda goated, gonna bring my hbs sometime read more

This was a new place for me to try. The service was amazing. Their food was delightful. I will definitely be coming back. You've got to give them a try. He won't regret it. read more

Just ate dinner with my friend on an early Sunday night. This location used to be a Ten Ren tea shop, a corner location, so it can accommodate up to 88 people. But there were only 3 or 4 tables of customers, however, another 2 or 3 tables of customers of various party sizes came in while we were there. My friend and I remembered fondly the old Cafe Spot location in Alhambra, so we couldn't wait to try this newly reopened restaurant! Verdict: this iteration is meant primarily to be a tea place with snacks for the high school/ college crowd, since the menu is an extremely truncated version of the old Cafe Spot. My friend and I remembered how there used to be a prime rib special back in the Alhambra restaurant on the weekends. Alas, nothing like that here. But the food wasn't bad, I got a minced beef with egg rice, and my friend the pork chop with pasta/spaghetti. I will bring the rest of my family to Cafe Spot since my daughters grew up eating at Cafe Spot regularly. I hope the restaurant will keep increasing its menu and bring back those weekend specials! read more

Cafe Spot - Cafes Near Me - Temple City, California

It's been two weeks since I first found this place and I've already been back 4 times. Everything is truly impeccable! Tried their Camellia milk tea 50% sweet with highland barley and popcorn chicken today. Milk tea was very aromatic and floral, and the popcorn chicken is super juicy and well seasoned! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. If you stop by, look for the manager Justin! read more

I don't know why everyone is giving 5 stars but this place is not the same as the one that was in Alhambra. The rice in the minced beef rice dish is cold and hard like it's either under cooked or been left overnight. Service was slow because there was one worker. This is by far the worst restaurant I've been to in a long time. Will not be coming back for sure read more
