Wow! If you are pretty particular about your matcha like I am, I would say that this is the place…read moreto go to! This might be my new favorite place for matcha in San Diego. If you are familiar with the Orange County cafe scene, this place feels like it can be one of those coffee shops based off the interior design, good quality of food and drinks, merchandise, overall ambiance, and more. The food and drinks I got were really delicious! There are a lot of spaces to study in the cafe with ports to charge your electronics and Wi-Fi. The service is great as well. If you are looking for something else to do after visiting the cafe, there is FotoOp, a cute photo-booth experience with a lot of different backgrounds!

**August 2026: Sunday Afternoon Visit**…read more My friend and I needed a spot with good Wi‑Fi to do some trip planning while we were in San Diego. He found Easy Does It, so we decided to check it out. The space felt like a college campus and library combined. It's really big, with lots of tables and chairs, but nothing felt cramped. There were cozy seating areas and even some couches, so it was easy to settle in for a while and was definitely the kind of place where people can chat, study, or work on their laptops. The vibe was perfect for what we needed, and the AC was blasting. There are two gender‑neutral bathrooms and plenty of parking, which was a nice bonus. I ordered the Matcha Cloud and swapped in oat milk. We found a spot to work at the back of the house. Honestly, this place is huge and a great spot to do work. For space and vibe, I'd give it 4 stars. My drink didn't taste memorable or like something I'd order again, but I think if I'm in the area I might be open to trying a different beverage. Overall, I'd give this place about 3.5 stars.

Eating "here" out of a cold-salad plastic deli container (reheated), pre-made three days prior, was a bad first impression. Because no milk or water was added before reheating, the oats were thick, dense, and gluey. ​Order at the counter and hang out until your name is called. The service was spartan, order and pickup at the counter, though the cashier was pleasant. The shop is clean and they open the property next door for seating. ​ A buddy ordered the San Dieggo. He said it rocked. It looked good. See photos. A note on pricing (not included in the rating): ​Price the food, don't fee the customer! Seeing a 4% surcharge for basic operational costs, wages, benefits, overhead -- is unnecessary. Why use a percentage-based sliding scale instead of simply factoring overhead into menu prices? A business's operating costs belong in the food price, not in fine-print menu line items. Stop the pricing shenanigans and just display what things actually cost upfront.

The ube flavor pairs beautifully with the ceremonial matcha, and is so deliciously silky. My partner thoroughly enjoyed his pandan coconut latte as well. I believe their ube milk line is seasonal, but I really hope they decide to permanently add it to the menu.

I'd heard a lot about Em Coffee House on social media, so I decided to give it a try…read more For me, a traditional Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk should have a rich, thick texture. I ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee with an extra shot of espresso. The coffee itself was strong, which I liked, but it didn't have the signature creamy thickness that I usually expect from Vietnamese coffee. The shop isn't very large, but it's clean, organized, and has a comfortable atmosphere. The staff were friendly, and my drink was prepared quickly without much of a wait. The overall concept reminds me of Đá Viên in Orange County, although I think the quality and flavor are a little different. Overall, it was a pleasant visit, and if you're in the area, it's worth trying to see if it matches your taste.

Got an espresso and chocolate croissant and even though I accepted the sparkling water, it wasn't there when I got my drink. The chocolate croissant was a bit bland.

It's a beautiful place with a lived in feel, nice and airy with plenty of outlets.

We got the Vietnamese coffee and my partner got the chocolate covered strawberry latte. The Vietnamese coffee has an extra shot (3 for a small), condensed milk, whole milk and a salted vanilla foam. I also asked for it half sweet which ended up being the perfect level. The drink missed the mark on having the distinctive phin drip espresso since they just use standard shots. The foam did add a nice saltiness to the drink though. My partner liked his chocolate strawberry drink. He subbed soy milk for $.75 extra. It did have a nice strawberry flavor but I felt like the chocolate and strawberry completely overpowered the coffee taste.
