That's one of the reasons I love Smoking Tiger Bread Factory. Even when it's crowded, there always seem to be enough study spots to find a place to settle in and get work done. The drinks are always fresh and delicious, and the matcha is absolutely chef's kiss! The atmosphere is welcoming, the space is great for studying, and it's become one of my go-to spots when I need a productive study session with a great drink in hand. Highly recommend!

We were looking for afternoon coffee and came across this cafe…read more The menu looked amazing and we could not decide what we wanted to order. So we decided to go with Calamansi cooler and the Ube milk tea with oatmilk for the drink. They were delicious. We also ordered the Leche flan ube cheesecake and it was teally good. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. The decor is pretty. Pretty good space and seating. I think the price is fair as well. We will need to try other drinks and baked goods next time. Actually have to try their coffee or maybe the Milo milk tea. Very impressed with this cafe.

This is one week old review. It was on our list to try since I love halo halo. This place…read moreactually deserve 3.5 stars but since overall experience is positive, it round up to 4. The place is small but cozy and they have a giant couch in the middle for lounging. The price is high compare to other places, with the exception of their daily special tea. Their tea is actually cheap. I love love the jasmine calamonsi tea, so refreshing for $3. The halo halo was overwhelmed with ice cream, need more of other ingredients. The monster oreo shake was delicious but it is not worth it for that price. The ube flan cupcake was just ube cupcake and flan stack on top. It kinds of lacking the cohesiveness. Overall, I would come back just for that tea.

Their ice creams are top notch! They have numerous unique flavors, all so delicious! I got to try…read moretheir Ube Honeycomb and Cookie Butter Swirl (was under the ube in the picture). A double scoop is close to $10 but so worth it! Both such delightfully sweet flavors, and perfect for a warm sunny day! They had a few standing tables and 2 benches to sit on. Otherwise, a very cute spot for a date or hang out! Everyone was friendly and service was quick and efficient! Parking was in their plaza lot but there was plently of parking for a Sunday afternoon!

Sorry Not Sorry is continually growing and more locations are opening up. I hope they are able to…read morestay consistent with the quality across all locations. I've only ever had the Cerritos location, but I've always enjoyed their ice cream. Their flavors remind me of the creativity at salt and straw, but even better. It must be the butter they use and the thickness of the ice cream. I recommend getting samples and trying out different flavors to cater to your preferences. The prices are reasonable and the portions are pretty good. I usually just share a split scoop. Their service is great and they move pretty fast. There are small tables to stand and eat, but it's definitely a quick stop kind of spot. My favorite ice cream shop nowadays and I always bring friends.

A simple and early heads-up would have been appreciated instead of a loud "WE ARE CLOSED" at 10:05 PM and passive-aggressive behavior from staff. Like honey, just use your words, 10-15 minutes BEFOREHAND could have saved you a lot of time from clinking and clanking while clean-up. All this energy for what babe? There were still multiple customers inside, and one even sarcastically yelled back "SORRY" in response to how the situation was handled. My friend and I were already cleaning up and heading out. The poor attitude wasn't limited to closing time. Even asking a simple question about a milk tea seemed to be an inconvenience. Customer service felt unfriendly and unwelcoming throughout the visit. I haven't been back in years, and after this experience, I will not be returning to this location. Service: 0/5 TL;DR: Rude closing experience, poor communication from staff, and unfriendly service throughout. Won't be returning.

The teahouse is so cute, it feels so peaceful and serene instead. the decor is very minimal and intentional, feels like an authentic asian tea house.

Meccha…read moreMatcha handled the chaos like pros, order in, vibes out, all drinks ready in about 12 minutes which was pretty fast for that size order. The matcha was legit!!! That deep ceremonial green that looks like it has its life together. Taste hits earthy, a little nutty, with just enough sweetness to remind you it's not chewing on grass for fun!!! No, sir!!! Best part is you get to play matcha DJ, pick your strength and sweetness level. I went bold with strong matcha and just 30% sweetness because I like my caffeine to mean it!!! If you're trying to level up your matcha game, this spot's definitely doing it right!! Check em out!!!

I have had their matcha soft serve, blended matcha, hojicha strawberry, and other drinks are so fun and they usually have new drinks to try vs everyone else with just matcha latte or strawberry latte. They also have espresso drinks, yuzu, banana topping, hojicha, and non caffeinated drinks. They used to have the best shaved ice too but I didn't see it on the menu this time.

Their drink menu was loaded with delicious and thoughtfully curated options. While I'll never be bored of boba, I have been a little bored of seeing the same 10 drinks at each shop. 7 Miles breaks this mold. Their drinks are quirky and delicious, always offering something new to challenge your cravings. I snagged the watermelon and coconut drink and added a cheese topper and boba. I absolutely love cheese toppers and have no self restraint when I see this option on the menu. The drink was SO tasty. The watermelon coconut mix was awesome too, especially for someone who doesn't love high sweetness levels.

I was down the street at Curry Lounge for dinner and my friend wanted me to have the ultimate cultural experience. He told me to order Meeta Paan. I was under the impression I was having dessert. This was not that. I'm Mexican, this was wild! I took one bite, tried to swallow it and puked. I tried so hard to hold it down. This flavor profile was nuts! I did enjoy everything about What-A-Paan, the man helping me at the counter was watching his soap opera & assembling the Paan, he was very happy and kind, complimented my dimples--he said saffron was the best flavor, I trusted whatever he was doing. I ordered 3 pieces to take home and share with my family So basically we still have 3 pieces left. I know this is very traditional and has medicinal properties--although this was not something I'd likely try again I am very thankful for the experience. Hope you enjoy the photos and video!
