The baristas in pageboy hats will efficiently take your order and your name. After concocting your drink they will have you taste-test it for any modifications before paying. This ensures you get exactly what you like, how you like it. All the locals know this place and the baristas get to know the regulars. I have been going there so long that if I'm ever away for some time the staff will notice and have inquired over my absence. It's Garden Grove's hidden gem and you should feel lucky I shared this with you. You're welcome!

The barista was attentive, listened to our order, and even asked if we wanted to make any adjustments. Once your drinks are ready, you head to the counter to pay. The entire family enjoyed their drinks, and I can see why this place gets so much love. It's definitely one of my favorite spots for Vietnamese drinks. Everything tastes light and refreshing without being overly sweet. My personal favorite was the cà phê brûlée. You get that little hint of sweet egg custard first, and then the bold coffee comes through. That combination?! If I could, I'd probably drink this every day. As other reviews have mentioned, parking can be a little tricky. Luckily, we came later in the day and didn't have any issues. Definitely worth a stop if you're craving Vietnamese drinks!

Their menu is a little different compared to Long Black, but I always get the Einspanner and it tastes just the same and delicious. I love their cream top. I honestly think it's the best in town. I had the Biscoff one before too and it's also very delicious! It's always busy in the morning which is good. The owner did a good job opening at this location and plaza. Lots of traffic going on here. Came here the other day w/ my aunt and it was our first time having the drinks for here. I like how they have the coffee in glass cups rather than the plastic ones. It's a nice aesthetic and it feels good just looking at it. Definitely come thru if you haven't been yet.

From my observation, the cups were no longer stacked inside of one another; rather, placed side by side on the counter and picked up like that to the back kitchen to be filled.

Despite the price increase on their Double Matcha ($8), I can now recommend Airoma FV to my friends who are matcha fans.

I've also been disappointed with their espresso recently. The only thing that appears to hold up is their drip. (Pretty sure their merch is AI generated, which unsettled a lot of people)

The banana flavor was delicious without being overpowering and it had the perfect amount of sweetness, not overly sweet at all. The cream on top made it even better. My friend got the ube cream coffee, which was not only gorgeous but also had such a lovely, subtle ube flavor. Since it's made with Vietnamese coffee, it had a stronger, bolder coffee taste, which was perfect for anyone who likes their coffee with a little more kick. The café itself has such a calm, relaxing vibe with plenty of seating, making it a great place to sit and enjoy your coffee. Service was quick and friendly too! Definitely a spot I'd come back to. The banana latte alone is worth the visit!

Their desserts are amazing, but their breakfast burrito with that green sauce? ADDICTION. Straight addiction. The only downside is that this place gets SO busy, especially in the afternoon, that finding a seat can be difficult. Come early if you actually want to sit and hang out. But honestly, there's a reason they're this busy. Every single drink and food item I've tried so far has been a 10/10. I love coming here and will keep coming back.

This place didnt disappoint The ambience in here is very nice. It's a coffee shop feel but also very bright and sunny. It's nice that you can order your coffee and then go sit down and have a little buzzer when your coffee is ready. There is an ample amount of seating in here. I just got mine to go, but it was very nice. I got a Matcha and they had almond, oat, and macadamia not milk options I believe if I remember correctly. I was excited to see hojicha on the menu, but was very disappointed to learn that I could only order that iced. It must be something that is premixed. I do like my Matcha unsweetened. It typically does not come that way, but they were able to oblige, and it was very good. Would definitely go back, but please get some Hojicha on the menu that could be served hot!!!

This about 3 times a week. Today, I made the usual, same order and the guy says we can't do it. I haven't seen him before, so I mentioned that I've always ordered it that way. He explains why he can't, I give him a ??? look. He proceeds to tell me perhaps he can do xxx. I tell him, I'm not sure how they do it, but it's always been the same. The reason why I'm leaving this review is because he didn't bother to ask the gal next to him (She takes my order all the time). He didn't even try to ponder if this was a possibility. It's weird that he didn't think there was a 1% chance that this curated coffee shop would ever make any adjustments. Now I'm sitting in my car and my two drinks suck and is way different. I hope he sees me sitting in the car writing this review.

They've been consistently amazing ever since they opened, and somehow they've only gotten better over time. I honestly enjoy just about every drink on their menu, especially their seasonal specials. My all-time favorite has to be their 2026 Spring Earl Grey Matcha. I was getting it almost every week, and I was genuinely sad when they switched over to their summer menu. Thankfully, they kept the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha, because wow... what a flavor explosion. It's easily one of the best matcha drinks I've ever had, and my friend and I keep coming back just for it. I know it sounds a little adventurous, because it did to me, but when I tried it, it genuinely changed my life (kidding). If mango isn't your thing, I highly recommend either the Double Matcha or the Banana Matcha. The Double Matcha is perfect if you love a strong matcha flavor; you can really taste the quality of the matcha they use. As for the Banana Matcha, I normally don't gravitate toward banana drinks, but SIP completely changed my mind. They use what tastes like a banana pudding instead of artificial banana flavoring, and it blends so smoothly with the matcha that every sip feels balanced and indulgent. The café itself is just as charming as the drinks. The wood paneling gives the space a cozy, retro vibe that makes you want to stay a while, and the staff is always incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming.

The space is super cute with such a fun, cozy vibe, and the staff was so kind and welcoming. I especially loved the red gingham decor it gives the whole place the cutest little picnic feel There are a few chairs where you can sit, sip, and chat, but no tables, so I wouldn't really consider this a spot to bring your laptop and work. Now the MATCHA I looooved their matcha with the Earl Grey foam top. OMG... it was phenomenal!! The matcha was earthy, umami, and so well balanced, and the hint of Earl Grey in the foam complemented it perfectly without overpowering the matcha. Such a good combination! I will 100% be coming back for this one!
