Hojicha cookie butter creama- 7.5/10 Good flavor but watery consistency (but their hojicha is a TEA like CLEAR tea and not the thick creamy hojicha I'm used to?)

Not bad but not the best

I know there are so many matcha spots popping up all over Orange County, but let me tell you--SIP…read moreis genuinely one of the best cafés around. 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.

I saw the long line for Airoma and came here immediately…read more First of all, there's plenty of parking, which is always a plus! 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!

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.

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. THANK YOU to staff/management who perhaps read my review concerning food safety issues and made the change to safeguard customers' health. Despite the price increase on their Double Matcha ($8), I can now recommend Airoma FV to my friends who are matcha fans.

I've tried both the Matcha Pandan and Matcha Einspanner and honestly you can't go wrong with…read moreeither. The matcha here is strong, rich, and earthy and actually tastes like matcha instead of getting lost underneath all the other flavors. But the Matcha Pandan is THE drink for me. I most definitely think Airoma makes the best matcha pandan in town and honestly, I don't think there's a true competitor. It is definitely on the sweeter side with a stronger pandan taste, but you can still distinctly taste both the pandan and matcha. The pandan is creamy and fragrant and pairs SO well with the earthiness of the matcha. The Matcha Einspanner is also SO good. The cream is thick and creamy, but the matcha underneath is strong enough to hold its own. You still get that earthy matcha flavor even with the cream, which I really appreciate. There's usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly and the drinks come out fast. Definitely one of my favorite matcha spots in OC. But if you're only getting one thing here, GET THE MATCHA PANDAN.

This place has quickly become one of my favorite coffee and matcha spots. I've tried several…read moredifferent lattes and matchas here but I have to say that my favorite drink is the classic einspanner. Apart from the delectable drinks, the customer service is top tier. We are always welcomed with a smile and were even told on one visit in particular, "enjoy our time here." Often times, coffee shops make you feel like an uninvited guest. In a world that seems to be rushing around on tight schedules, this coffee shop is a nice and refreshing departure. Bonus stars to Kevin and all the staff who are incredibly hospitable.

Pear Matcha Einspanner? Say less…read more I don't think I've ever seen pear anything on a menu at any coffee/ matcha places. I was very intrigued by it and knew I had to try it! Service was great. Parking was easy to find. It's a shared parking lot with other businesses. Dex Coffee was easy to find and lots of parking available. The Pear Matcha Einspanner was good, but I prefer Coconut Matcha.

It is a great atmosphere with plenty of seating. The barista greeted me immediately and I ordered the coconut macadamia latte iced with an apple cheese Danish warmed up. I ate the Danish as I waited for the coffee. It was perfectly warm and the combination was great. It was not too sweet and the pastry was soft. The coffee was great and will get me through my day. I ended up getting offered an additional shot of espresso and I am glad I took it. I defintiely would come back and try other pastries or coffees on the menu. Give it a try.

A cute little coffee shop located close to an Aldi's…read more Since the coffee shop is located near a grocery store, the parking lot is huge so you shouldn't have to worry about parking. I got the Honey Oat Latte (hot) regular size. I really wanted to like it, but quite honestly the espresso was very acidic. Maybe it was the brew, or the grinds were too coarse, but the first initial taste was very acidic and upsetting to the palette. It could've also been that I got a hot drink instead of iced. I noticed a lot of people were ordering iced drinks instead of hot, so next time I will try an iced drink. Good news is their menu is very extensive! They have so many options of coffee, matcha, and non-caffeinated beverages for everyone. They also have a seasonal menu that changes frequently. Right now they have a pumpkin spice latte for fall. Even though I didn't enjoy the honey oat latte, I haven't been deterred from coming back to this place. I really want to go back and try their different iced beverages and give this place another chance!

I love how strong but creamy and delicious this coffee is. I'm hooked! I am Vietnamese and I approve of this cup of coffee. While I was there I saw their glorious casing of pastries and I couldn't resist. I ordered and enjoyed: 2 Garlic Bread ($5.35/each), Chocolate Croissant ($6.60), Almond Croissant ($6.85), Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread ($4.75) and 2 Macarons ($3.20). Their pastries are fantastic. My boyfriend doesn't enjoy sweets as much as I do so that garlic bread was good for it. The croissants were really flakey and flavorful. I enjoyed the bread. For the macarons I was given a third one as a thanks for all the items I orders and I liked all 3. Yum! Wish I could come back to support the business, especially with their incredible coffee, but I was told that they will be closing on 7/31/26. I'm so sad I didn't discover them sooner. I wish them all the best and hope they re-open in the future.
