    Strawberry pistachio
    Emily L.

    My fav Strawberry Pistachio latte! Their strawberry base is really tasty this place is the only one have really good strawberry base!!

    Strawberry Cloud
    Ashley L.

    Tried Coffee Signal for the first time and I'm impressed. The strawberry cloud was so good! The inside is super cute and has a cozy vibe. Service was great too. Definitely coming back.

    Came here to do some work on a Sunday afternoon. I like to do serious work in coffee shops, so I always pay attention to whether they have plenty of outlets. This place passed the outlet test with flying colors! Decent amount of seating, and I loved the colorful decor. The hazelnut espresso cake was decent, but I would've loved for it to be a bit warmer. The iced hibiscus tea was refreshing, and the barista was very nice. There's a parking lot and free street parking available. Definitely will be one of my new go to coffee shops in Koreatown.

    Wi-Fi
    Andrea M.

    Five starsfor the right audience. They know their crowd is full of students, remote workers, and anyone who wants a good sweet latte without being made to feel uncultured. Free Wi-Fi, plenty of outlets, and a fair one drink minimum mean you can actually settle in and get things done. They use Stereoscope beans, which earns them some credibility, but don't come in expecting reverent pour-overs and hushed tones about terroir. The focus here is accessibility, and that's a feature, not a flaw. The free parking lot plus metered street parking make it one of the most convenient options around.

    I don't think people talk about Coffee Signal enough. I've been a few times and have no complaints. They have a very diverse menu with a lot of unique and seasonal drinks so I always look forward to seeing what new items are on the menu. They are located in a plaza so if you get lucky you'll snag a parking spot. I encourage you all to support this awesome small business now more than ever!

    strawberry matcha was just strawberry milk and a whisper of matcha... ordered the taikiyaki and they were raw. maybe their coffee is better. the service was friendly

    Unfortunately this place was a miss for me. The lattes only come with one shot of espresso which I find a little odd since the standard is two so I had to pay even extra to get a triple shot. The peanut butter cream top could have had a little more peanut butter flavor to it but it was good. The taiyaki was good too but not the best I've had. Maybe I'll try again another day with different items

    Cute and trendy coffee shop in Ktown! I got the Toffee Nut Einspanner which had a cream top and oat milk. I also got a date ginger matcha scone. The scone was very filling but the highlight was the coffee. I really enjoyed it - sweet and creamy! We got our order pretty quickly. The lids, straws, napkins, etc are on the side by the pick up counter.

    Raspberry tea and chaga- mushroom matcha?
    Jade L.

    Awesome drinks. The service was very nice and the place is super clean with good places to study. I had raspberry tea because I cannot handle caffeine (sad) but it was very tasty. My Sibling got chaga matcha (mushroom in it?) it's supposed to be good for your brain. I took a sip so perhaps all my problems will be fixed some day Alas alas Also we beat the valet parking. Woo hoo my sibling (if you arrive early enough it's a free parking lot but afterwards it's valet)

    DUBAI CHOCOLATE EINSPANNER + PEANUT BUTTER EINSPANNER
    Juliet G.

    Super cute, colorful cafe in K-town with strong einspanner lattes. We tried the Dubai Chocolate Einspanner and the Peanut Butter Einspanner. I love cafés and I normally order matcha, so for me, both drinks were pretty strong in terms of the caffeine levels. The coffee flavor also came through heavily on both drinks, so they weren't too sweet. If you like a strong coffee, you'd probably enjoy these even more than I did. The staff was pretty straightforward and she made the drinks quickly. The place has a mid-sized parking lot as well as some street parking, so it's easily accessible. I recommend for those who like a strong kick of caffeine!

    Welcome to COFFEE SIGNAL. #ktownLA
    Carl N.

    Behind a successful Boss is a good coffee. Now that's said let's begin this new review. Coffee Signal is a cozy and chic little coffee shop in K-Town LA located in a small plaza on Western avenue. They offer a modest selection of coffee, tea and signature drinks. Moreover, they have breakfast and pastry items for customers to indulge. We came early Saturday morning and were perfunctorily greeted by a hushful female Korean staff. Interior was aesthetically decorated with white and yellow painted walls. Furthermore, there were copious seats and tables for customers. I dig their orange egg lounge couch in front facing the large round mirror. Atmosphere was inviting and relaxing. I had a Lavender Latte and an Avocado Toast. My latte has a rich, smooth lavender taste -- perfectly bold and balanced. Food was just okay. Prices were competitive. Free WiFi. Service was spot on. Staff needs to be energetic and lively. Free Parking in the plaza. Overall, it's a nice coffee shop. I recommend it.

    Injeolmi Latte  Strawberry
    Lauren J.

    This is a cute coffee shop that is perfect for getting work done! the interior is aesthetic and the drink are good as well. i got their strawberry cloud and my friend got the injeolmi latte. they have plenty of space, outlets, and wifi! and a cute mirror to take a selfie

    dubai chocolate einspanner
    Mandie L.

    Drinks: I got the dubai chocolate einspanner and it was pretty good! The coffee could definitely be stronger. I love how many einspanner options they have and I likely will come back to try the other options. Service: the worker was not too friendly and didn't seem happy to be there. There is free parking. Ambiance: It is very clean and lots of tables. It wasn't too busy when I came.

    Any access to charging devices to study?

    Yes we have outlet available for charging!

    Is the espresso single origin?

    Our espresso is a blend of Ethiopia,Brazil, and Sumatra.

    Are there any vegan eats?

    Yes, we have vegan pastries!

    Is it quite? And ideal for a study place?

    I've only been there once, but when I was there, the music was a little on the loud side if you're looking for quiet. You could study, but you'd want to bring potent noise-canceling headphones.

    Are there outlets?

    Yes

    My new favorite spot for decadent matcha and hojicha drinks!…read more The cream top on the hojicha einspanner was so creamy and thick, and it was also the perfect level of sweetness. The strawberry matcha einspanner was also yummy and had a great presentation The space is pretty small but there are a few seats available. The line was around 20 minutes long on a Saturday afternoon. Like most spots in ktown, the parking lot is limited and you'll likely need to find street parking, but it is definitely worth the hype!

Upon entering the place is clean, sleek, and modern. We were greeted right away. I already knew I was leaving with 2 drinks for the drive back home. I ordered: 1. Cold brew vanilla: Delicious, I love that tou can see the vanilla cream on top. This was definitely what I needed to wake me up. 2. Matcha einspener: I tasted this and immediately loved it when leaving the store. I saved it for last. It was so light and refreshing. I could easily drink it all day if they had a bigger size lol. I was hoping to try the seasonal mango cream matcha, but sadly it was gone. 3. Pastries: I wanted to try the sampler but I don't thinking they had it yet. I tried one of the cinnamon pastries. It was soft and very cinnamony. Overall, it was a great experience and I'll be back soon.

I did share other items selected by my friend who was with me and did not get to taste them. The baristas were fun and friendly as they prepared our coffee.

I am not usually a desserts…read moreperson but I was targeted by Instagram and by how crunchy the cakes were The crunch was real. Went out and bought the 1. Mama Mango- brought it to a party I had last night. It was good. Got many compliments. Difficult to cut through for sharing but 4/5 rating 2. Berry my absolute favorite. Crunch was on point. Not too sweet. Nailed the blueberry flavor 3. Apple -3/5 4. Berry cubed - boyfriend said "definitely tastes like berries" 5. Lychee - loved the strong oolong flavor that helped combat the sweet of the dessert. 6. Bing Chillin - so good. Banana was surprisingly my favorite. I don't usually like banana anything but this one was different l. Must be the whipping cream or something. All in all I understand it's pricy but you get what you pay for. It was delicious and not too sweet. Hard to nail the flavors while making sure the sweetness is not overwhelming so I think Tucha did a great job.

    It's just tiktok hype, save the time and get dessert somewhere else…read more What I ate: - Lemon shaped was probably the best of the flavors I tried. I also like the mango shaped one. The peach shaped and was forgettable Pros: - The cakes are very very cute and amazing to look at - Shop inside had a few tables. It seemed like most were just couples or a few friends sharing - Kiosk ordering do no need for human interaction if you don't want it Cons: - I really hated that the flavors did not match up to the cake shapes. I think I liked the lemon shaped one the best because it has the most citrusy passionfruit flavor. But when I break into the mango shaped cake, I expect a strong mango flavor. If the flavors were not going to match, I would've much rather like it if the cakes were in different shapes like a cute cartoonish animal, or smiley face, or a daisy. Some shape that I wouldn't associate with flavor - I also wasn't a huge fan of the flavor combos. I feel like they were really trying to go out there but often times the fruit flavors used didn't really match up with the tea or nut flavors. The flavors were not balanced at all, often just very muddled with one flavor either being too strong or not strong enough, or interfering with a fruits flavor. Some of the cakes were floral tasting from tea or almost slightly savory. The cakes are not sweet at all. Maybe I was just unlucky and tried the worst flavors. Again the lemon shaped one was the best because passionfruit flavor was sharp enough to cut through the other flavors - Parking is street and can be hit or miss - Expensive - I ordered a drink and I don't see it on the menu, or I just can't remember it. That's how different it was. I do remember thinking it was so sweet Would I go again? Absolutely not
