I came to the cinema to see the live BTS concert and arrived really early, so I took the opportunity to find a place to sit and enjoy some cookies or coffee. I stumbled upon this place called Gangnam Signature, located inside the mall right next to the movie theaters. The mall is absolutely packed today--I'm not sure if it's because of the World Cup--and the downstairs food court was way too crowded, so I decided to stay here and give this place a try instead. I bought a soft matcha cookie--I think it's topped with melted marshmallow--and paired it with a cappuccino. The cappuccino is excellent. The prices are a bit higher than what you'd usually find at a coffee shop, but this place is definitely worth it. The customer service is excellent. At the end, they asked if I enjoyed everything I had, and I gave them my feedback. The place is spotless. They have booth seating as well as standard tables. Today, there was someone handing out samples in front of the shop--croffles. They're like waffles but crunchier, served with honey or syrup and powdered sugar; they were delicious, too. Congratulations to the whole team. Blessings, and I'll definitely be back! read more

I have visited garden state plaza mall in several years and was surprised that they have this cute Korean coffee and brunch shop. I had a caramel macchiato with almond milk and yes, there's a surcharge to swap the milk. It was delicious. My daughter had the pistachio creme latte and it was a bit too sweet for my liking especially in the morning. She loves it though. My only gripe is the pricing. My coffee is over $8 for a really small cup. I don't so mind the price if I'm getting more in quantity but gosh $20 for our drinks is steep. read more

Stopped by during shopping for a coffee and croffle bites. This is such a cute cafe with lots of coffee varieties, bubble tea, pastries, and desserts. I had a strong cup of iced coffee, while my sister ordered a pistachio cream iced latte. Absolutely delicious and the perfect place to stop for a pick me up while shopping. read more

This was my first time at Gangnam signature. The Coffee was great--sweet and strong in taste. It had a nice balance. The croffles came out warm, crunchy, and even better with a drizzle of maple syrup. It does get very busy, and since it's a small shop with just one worker, expect a bit of a wait, though not too long. There's some space outside to sit and do work, but seating is limited, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot for coffee and a quick bite. read more

Excellent quality Jamaican blue mountain coffee! I had an iced latte with oatmilk and it was perfect! They offer delish cookies and mochi donuts. They have the vital dubai chocolate which was good but not as crunchy as expected. They pack a hefty price but service is awesome and the store is well kept ! I recommend! read more

Terrible lattes and wildly overpriced. Eight dollars for 8 oz of liquid. Red bean cake costs just as much and lasts about four bites.

Wow the absolute RUDEST people ever. I tried to go here tonight and as you can see there are still people in there. As we went inside people were also eating and standing and another group were paying. As soon as I approach the counter the girl looks at me and says "we're closed" and not even in a nice way. So I asked again to make sure I heard correctly because my friend and I immediately shot each other a look given the several groups of people still in there. Also because there were people paying and customers behind that group, they couldn't even use the excuse that the register was closed. Btw, I also only wanted to get a donut, nothing that would require reheating or making. But looks like this place won't be getting my business tonight or ever . read more

Nothing says "we don't give a --" like screwing up an order, making customers wait for 15 minutes while they try to fix it, overcharging for drinks that were already over $10 each, and not apologizing or offering a make-good. They might as well take out some $100 bills and burn them ... because this place is not going to last. Get it together. read more

Out of all the coffee options in the mall I'd definitely recommend this one. It's a bit tiny but staff are friendly and efficient, taking orders and working fast to keep the line moving. Aside from regular coffee items like espresso and lattes they also offer croffles (croissant waffles) with ice cream (vanilla or matcha), mochi donuts, bubble tea or bubble tea slushes, ice cream topped with brown sugar boba, affogatos with optional flavor drizzle, einspanner (hot espresso topped with cold whipped cream) and much more. There isn't really a cozy seating area and it's best to grab your treats to go as it gets a bit cramped inside. I tried the double espresso, surprisingly good! Note: if you're looking for yellow Splenda they didn't have any... If I'm ever in the mall again I'll definitely swing by here for a sweet coffee treat. Skip the massive lines/crowds at Starbies and DD and try this place out!!! read more

Came here to get honeycomb latte & Lotus Bischoff cookie. Both were good, but nothing special. However, the pistachio latte was good. I did like the quick customer service & samples they have. Which was nice. read more

This place is inside the mall, we went through Barnes and nobles to get here. My friend and I saw the picture for the pistachio cream latte and we both ended up getting it. It was SO. GOOD. The pistachio cream was so thick and the way it just mixed into the coffee was so pretty. I would say it is very pistachio forward so if you don't like pistachio I wouldn't recommend it. We also tried the mochi taro donut which wasn't that sweet as I thought it would be. The service was very quick. They do a very small like 4-5 chair seating up against the window but that's about it. There is plenty of seating within the mall when you step out of the shop. read more

Not great. We ordered the "croffles" and were told they would take about three minutes to cook. Apparently the waffle iron didn't have a timer. About ten minutes after ordering, they were ready... supposedly. In reality, they were still raw and doughy on the inside. The staff offered to put them back on the waffle iron, but as we'd already taken a couple of bites that sounded downright unsanitary. Nice people but just not a good experience at all. read more

Ordered a black Americano. Price point was extremely high but I'm always open to try new brew. The coffee came scolding hot with no sleeve to temper the heat. It was so hot that I couldn't even carry it for long and had to toss it before even tasting the coffee. Sure I could have gone back but we were on the other side of the mall by then and I didn't want to carry it any longer. Only gave a second star because my wife said her coffee was fine (had steamed milk so perhaps that cooled it down). Sorry, at these prices it should be perfect. read more

Excellent customer service, not a fan of the boba. I had the matcha bubble tea, and thought the boba could have been sweeter read more

Tasty treats, and good service. Worth stopping by if you're in the mall. I got a mochi donut, and a chocolate boba which were both tasty.

Had coffee and soft serve in April 2022. Very friendly staff and wonderful coffee. I was most impressed by their soft serve ice cream. I had vanilla and it was perfect mix of soft cream and icy refreshing taste. Enjoy! read more

Most of the time my drink tastes good but there's one worker there I don't know his name but he has curly hair he always messes up. The americano was so watery and the foam layer on top was non existent. Every other worker makes the drink fine but him which is why I'm giving 3 stars. read more

Cutest little hole in the wall at the mall! The owner is the sweetest woman. She always recommends what she thinks is best for you based on your preferences that she recalls. Their bubble teas are a total win. My personal fave is the mochi donuts - the first person who has told me they were gluten free at their business where I haven't gotten sick. read more
