    Banana Coffee, Matcha Creamy Coffee, coffee
    Kevin S.

    DOL coffee shop is such a welcome addition to the neighborhood. The shop is clean and modern, the service is quick, and the drinks rock. I love how customizable they are. There are plenty of sweet liquid treats to choose from. And they're delicious. Don't skip the creamy matcha! I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu.

    New Coffee Spot in Santa Monica?? Sign me up, personally it was a little too late in the day to try a strong vietnamese coffee, so I opted for the ice blended banana coffee instead, absolutely delicious! Definitely a summer drink!! The staff was so friendly with answering questions and bringing the coffee to my table, the music isn't super loud which is nice, and around the evening hours there aren't many people so it's not too loud, making it a great environment to work or relax. DOL Coffee House is now added to my favorite coffee places for sure, I'll be back to try different drinks!

    This new spot is so good. They make a crazy great Magonada. I always get it with boba. The service is always great. Combine it with good vibes and you have a winning recipe. Please try this place. You will be back again and again and again. Become a member and receive points towards a free drink.

    From Redondo to Santa Monica! So excited Dol's finally expanding its presence to this side of town. The venue was super nice, well-lit huge space with plenty of seats and high-ceiling. Could see myself spending hours either just chilling and reading or even working. Dedicated parking space was certainly bonus points! As they specialized in Vietnamese coffee, so obviously that's the must-have. My husband got the hot egg coffee which he loved as the strong Vietnamese coffee was balanced with creaminess from the egg foam. You could also tailor the sweetness level to your liking for which we opted for 75%. I got the Salted Creamy Coffee, basically their strong Vietnamese coffee with salted cream top. Really loved it as well. Not overly acidic despite the coffee flavor stood really strong.

    I'm so happy that there's finally an Asian owned Matcha spot in the west side! I will definitely be coming here often and supporting! I got the Coco matcha which is coconut water with Matcha foam! Super delicious and refreshing! I also met the owner who is very sweet! Definitely were checking out. It seems like a very popular spot to work! There is a lot of seats and the space itself is very spacious!

    Mango green tea (no ice) on the right

    I order boba at least once a week on average from various shops and I've never before seen such an empty drink served! Yes, this was "no ice", and yes, the menu does let you know it "may not be all the way full" but this felt like a rip off for a $7 drink. As I said, I order boba all the time - they may often leave an inch or so from the top but this felt egregious! I had suggested ordering here with a friend and felt embarrassed for this so ended up treating as a result. Note, the image was edited to remove the sticker label with identifiable information.

    I've found a new favorite viet coffee spot! Plenty of room to work in as well. The service was very friendly and fast. They also have self ordering screens. Plenty of parking in the back. I got the viet coffee with 25% sweetness and it was bomb!!! Highly recommend it! They also serve boba so I can't wait to come back and try that next!!!

    Egg coffee
    Anthony T.

    Loved being able to go to a vietnamese coffee shop on the west side in Santa Monica. I have tried their location by Gardena and it is incredibly consistent. Nice strong viet coffee, and the egg foam on top adds the perfect amount of custardy deliciousness that I crave. Go before they blow up and get huge lines!

    Vietnamese iced coffee
    Megan A.

    Dol Coffee has my favorite Vietnamese coffee on the west side. Everything is so flavorful and perfectly balanced without ever being too sweet. I also love the ice they use. It somehow makes the drinks even better and keeps everything tasting super fresh. The employees are always so nice and welcoming, and the service is incredibly fast even when they're busy. The parking is also really easy and convenient, which makes stopping by so much better. Definitely one of my new favorite coffee spots.

    Black ice coffee with cream top
    Dominic E.

    Great place to hang out and grab a cold coffee or smoothie. Very clean and spacious cafe area. The Vietnamese black ice coffee with a cream top was the perfect pick me up after a day at the beach. They have self service kiosks but before I could order the staff was very attentive and took my order. Great spot.

    Vietnamese egg coffee with oat milk -
    Catherine Kaila M.

    Welcome to the neighborhood DOL Coffee House! I love Vietnamese coffee and for their soft opening I tried the Vietnamese egg coffee with oat milk and if was delicious! The space is large, welcoming, and cozy. The staff were wonderful and so kind. 5 stars for the drink, ambiance, and service. I am looking forward to frequently visiting!

    Salted Creamy Coffee with boba
    Kim N.

    They took over the old Kristy Kream location. There's a parking lot in the back. I got the salted creamy coffee. It is very strong just like a proper Vietnamese coffee should be. I'm very happy to have a new place to get coffee and boba ! They have a vast menu. I need to come back to try more items I saw other customers drinking .

    Tried this new coffee shop today and loved it! Everyone was extremely nice, welcoming, and the service was super fast. The whole experience felt smooth and friendly from start to finish. Definitely coming back!

But: They have a crazy attendant that spies where you are walking and decides how much you pay based on his opinion vs your receipt from the store and validation stamps. When I came back he said I owed him $15. I showed him my receipt but he claimed he watched me walk away and so validation doesn't count anymore. I refused to pay for his demand and he told me I am banned from the parking lot. He is on crack. Shame because tartine will lose clients because of this dudes behavior. I used to go several times each week but I can't deal with this guy making up rules depending on whether he likes you or not.

I can see why he loves it -- the egg tarts are very custardy and rich, with a lightly eggy flavor but the sweetness from heavy cream in each bite contrasting to the flaky crust.

It was a little too sweet for me but for the average American palette is probably perfect.

We were delighted with the box of cookies and tarts that they brought from Paderia in Santa Monica. The chocolate chip walnut cookies were fat and soft with a slightly crisp exterior. The thickness of them allowed a plethora of rich chips to reside inside. I'm not a fan of chunks of nuts in cookies but these were chopped in tiny pieces, so did not take away from the overall soft texture. The soft peanut butter chocolate cookie was also a huge fattie with peanut butter chips within the chocolate cookie. Both were enhanced with a quick warm-up. I loved both of these cookies and think the chocolate chip is the very best you'll ever find. We also had Portuguese egg tarts. The pastel de nata (if I recall, this is what they are called) I ate was small but good, but I have had others that were more to my liking, with a sweeter custard and a more caramelized top, which I guess is a personal preference. Not to say it wasn't delicious - it was! I love the cookies so much I'll be checking out their Irvine location soon, which is much closer to me.
