Green chilaquiles and an iced sugar free vanilla latte

Clara A.

I've been here a few times and forgot to write them a review. It's such a cute cafe and has a laid back vibe. It's pretty spacious and has some outlets if you're looking for a space to work out of. Their coffee is pretty good and decently priced. My favorites are the strawberry matcha and the sugar free vanilla latte. Their food and pastry items are pretty good. I haven't found a favorite yet though. The service here is friendly and served with smiles. One of my favorite spots to work out of.

I walked in first thing in the morning when they opened. I ordered the Banana Oat on ice; they didn't have an option for a warm cup. I ordered hot chocolate and a soy chorizo burrito . The decor is nicely put together; I love the Christmas tree, the vibe, and the open space. The cashier was very friendly. The food was a 2.6/5. The soy burrito had more black beans and peppers, and the French fries were not fresh but rather stale. There's a kick of spice, but not enough seasoning. I had three bites and just didn't have an appetite for it. However, I'll definitely come back to try something different. Aittle on the pricey side for a burritoni believe I paid like $33 or something for just three things

Arissa B.

The space is spacious with plenty of seating and I really love the couches because they give off a cozy homey vibe. The decor is adorable which makes it a great spot to hang out. The customer service was excellent as well. The person taking my order was very friendly and they even brought my drink out to me. This is definitely a great place to study. I ordered the banana cream matcha but unfortunately it did not meet my expectations. The matcha flavor was quite weak and the overall drink tasted mostly like banana milk. The banana cream had an artificial taste that I did not enjoy. Overall I would recommend this place for studying or spending time here but I would not recommend the banana cream matcha.

I was looking for breakfast and found this place was in my backyard. So I was excited to try. I walked in and approached the counter I said Hi to the girl at the register and she didn't speak back nor did she ask what did I want to order. I felt that was not what I am use to when I visit establishments, however I wasn't going go let that ruin a possible good find within this place so I just started my order. I ordered the avocado toast for myself and the Turkey panini for mu boyfriend and 2 lavender lattes. I sat at one of the tables inside waiting for my order. The same girl who didn't greet me walked over and brought both lattes I ordered. She also returned to ask if I needed a cup holder. (I guess she does have some good customer service in her) she brought the cup holder over and then return again with my order I said thank you and left the restaurant. I arrived home to EAT. My boyfriend questioned where I got the food from because he really liked his food. I shared with him my findings. He stated he didn't really like the drink but I did. I absolutely didn't enjoy my avocado toast. The bread was crouton hard and the avocado spread tasted like one of the ready made avocado spreads you buy at the grocery stores. Which wasn't horrible but it wasn't the best either it didn't really have any flavor to overall. I would probably revisit this location and try something else on the menu since my boyfriend food was good and see if I will be greeted next time but I'm in no rush to revisit. The decor was ok you can tell it was some effort put into it. Gives more of a coffee house vibes.

Came here early morning! it was not too busy! lots of parking in the plaza the space has an airy feel and lots of space to sit and talk or work. I like the wall art they had. I ended up getting the iced Banana matcha latte! my husband got a classic latte hot. Both drinks were really good! the matcha had foam that was banana, so as you sipped you got the banana flavor. The flavor was overall good for the matcha! i enjoyed it! I don't think id get the banana foam again tho, for me it was a bit too banana ish but i know others like that flavor! the latte was good too, rich and creamy felt like a hug in a cup. I will definitely be back to try their food as well!

I finally got to try Gracias Cafecito!! I'm always off work so late but luckily today I actually had time to stop by! It was super packed but I didn't know they offered online ordering so that's something I'm definitely going to do whenever I go back. The stag was super super friendly which was a bit shocking because I would have assumed I would have a fast interaction with someone who's overwhelmed- which is totally understandable considering how busy it was! The turkey panini was soooo good! I love bellpepppers and turkey together so immediately a 10/10. The banana toast I believe had honey and my sister loved it. The caramel frappe almost reminds me of the McDonald's caramel frappe, with a difference between the consistency of the drink. Definitely coming back but placing an order online!

I love supporting small businesses and know often the prices maybe a little higher, but I expect higher quality, too. Tell me why one piece of avocado toast is $10? Mind you it wasn't even on quality bread, it was thin and crunchy with a light smear of avocado! I honestly felt ripped off. I can make it at home with better ingredients and tasting better, too. They had breakfast sandwiches that have meat cheese and egg on a croissant starting at $6.75 why on earth would one piece of toast be $10? I know avocados can be expensive but you're not even generous with the amount that you put on the toast. Sorry for the rant ...Coffee was decent, but not to the standards where I would return again for the higher prices. Customer Service was good, though.

Karina F.

We ordered two strawberry matcha lattes and a turkey and cheese panini. The sandwich was good but nothing really special, the bell peppers were a little odd..if I could add a recommendation, cook them down a little more but maybe that's just a preference. The matcha lattes were good but I felt like it was more of a milk flavor versus matcha. The service was great though and the vibe inside was nice. I would go again to try something else.

Abigail U.

The coffee was quite flavorful. The chilaquiles were delicious but oh so spicy. I ended up ordering a to go coffee because I enjoyed it so much. The only issue is that the service took some time.

Susie Z.

10 out of 10. I got a breakfast burrito and iced banana latte. The burrito was made with fresh ingredients. The iced latte tasted like banana and the service was amazing. The attention to detail is amazing. My order was to go and they brought it to me. Very clean and welcoming environment.

Gracias Cafecito came up on my Yelp suggestions and we decided to give it a try since it's relatively close by. Coffee: 8/10 We tried their Spanish and French vanilla hot lattes. Both were pretty decent coffees. Not too sweet but also not too strong. They have a great variety of lattes, including their holiday options, and different flavor matchas. I will say, prices are on the higher end ($7ish +). Food: 8.5/10 It's always great when you find a cafe with food options and not just pastries. We ordered their breakfast burrito and soyrizo burrito. They are pretty expensive and compared to a $15 burrito somewhere else, not that big. BUT both were very flavorful. They have black beans in them, which is different, but bomb! Definitely recommend them both. We also got a blueberry muffin that was your standard blueberry muffin..nothing special. I will say, maybe it was the muffin we got, but there were no blueberries inside, just on top which was a bummer. Overall, the food was good. Vibes/Ambiance: 7/10 We visited on a Friday morning and it wasn't too busy. There were only a handful of people there. The cafe is very cute and cozy. The space is big and has plenty of tables. A great space to study or work. It is very quiet. Staff is nice but a little serious. They bring out your items to you so that was a very nice touch but there's very little interaction from them so I didn't get that welcoming feeling. Overall, it's a solid option for you to try.

Was in LA for one day only and came to this cafe twice. their banana oat milk latte is unreal. get it with an extra espresso shot and it's golden. it's a very cute space with lots of seating and and natural light. staff was lovely and welcoming. highly recommend!!!!

Sunrise Espresso (OJ and espresso). Interesting combo, but surprisingly good!

Beatriz R.

We were in the area and decided to give this a go! The girl that took our order recommended drinks and the food menu--great service! The inside is super chill but charming. They have tables and a cute little couch. The decor is minimal but gives a little calm touch to what I'm sure is busy during the day. We truly enjoyed this find! They have milk subs available if you lack-toes-and-toddler-pants lol (lactose intolerant).

I wanted to stop by and try this place. Overall it's a must try! I ordered the brown sugar latte with oat milk, I would give it a 5/5. It was not sweet at all and it was deliciously creamy. I also ordered the breakfast croissant (egg, cheese, ham) it was okay. I would give this 3/5. Definitely had better, but it did its thing. Nice ambiance and the customer service was great! read more

don't usually write reviews, but I had such an upsetting experience today that I feel it's important to share. I came into this coffee shop hoping to enjoy a drink I've had before, but couldn't remember the exact name. Instead of being met with patience or helpfulness, I was met with unnecessary attitude and rudeness. The barista told me, "Well if you don't know, then I don't know," which made me feel like a burden for simply asking for help navigating their menu. The drink I received was nothing like what I've had before--burnt, bitter, barely any cold foam, and completely lacking flavor. It was also overpriced for the quality. When I politely tried to address the issue, what seemed to be the owner or a family member jumped in with more attitude, rather than trying to make it right. I was shocked by how unprofessional and dismissive the service was. When I brought it up, I was basically told 'you can go, I'll refund you What makes this even more disappointing is that I truly believe in supporting Latino-owned businesses and take pride in doing so--but that doesn't excuse poor customer service. Respect, kindness, and quality should always be part of the experience, no matter who the customer is. read more

Stopped by here randomly because I needed a pick me up and googled coffee shops on my way to do errands. Wanted to support small businesses instead of Starbucks as well. The place is super spacious and would be a great space for reading, studying, work, or even a little lunch or snack break or date. In addition to their drinks, they also have breakfast and snack sandwiches. I didn't get one this time, but would definitely be interested in trying it. I was the only person in there when I stopped by so service was quick and satisfactory. The staff were nice as they took my order and handed me my drink. Nothing more, nothing less, but that's perfectly fine with me. They also have a little merch shop which I plan on checking out at a later day as well. I ordered the Honey Lavender Latte iced. It was good with the right amount of flavor and not too sweet for me. Overall, I was satisfied with my visit read more

I heard about this cafe in my city's facebook group and now I understand why I've read so many great things. The cafe is located in a plaza with plenty of parking. I was greeted right upon entering, the environment here is very welcoming and inviting. There is plenty of seating so it's a great space to study or have a coffee with friends. The mural is beautiful, great for photo ops. I asked for their most popular drink and was recommended their brown sugar latte. I ordered it iced, it was delicious.! Not too sweet but sweet enough to mask the bitterness of coffee. I also ordered a ham and cheese croissant, a classic. They have plenty of other drinks and pastries, check them out! read more

I walked in yesterday and I have to say the customer service was horrible. I'm pretty sure it's latino family owned which is a shame because I cannot support this business. They are not friendly or welcoming and act like you being there is an inconvenience to them. The young lady at the front was very rude and condescending and it honestly makes me sad because I really wanted to support this business. When I walked in, I felt this weird energy and smiled at the workers and received glares back. Not only that the prices are insane for the quality of food and drinks. Please do yourself a favor and skip this coffee shop don't support businesses like these there's way better out there that you could be supporting !!!

Came here with a friend on a Saturday around 10am and there was already a line that went slightly out the door, but was able to grab a table, thankfully! I ordered a matcha latte and a ham&cheese croissant. The matcha latte was pretty good, 6/10. They use Ujii matcha, not super sweet or bitter. Would have liked a bit more matcha flavor. The ham& cheese croissant was nothing extraordinary, your usual croissant. Overall, very nice place to talk and hangout at! And plenty of parking!

I was excited to come to this spot mainly because of the gratitude theme and was politely surprised that it is a faith-based cafe with beautiful music in the background. I was however disappointed with the lack of friendliness from the two people who work at the counter (my guess is it is the owners?). I think this place has potential to build community and be a staple in the community, however with the lack of friendliness, it does not have a very welcoming vibe. That being said, the music is great, the drink was amazing, love the coffee options. The vibe is cute, although I do wish there were more couches as the seating is not very comfy. I didn't get food but the pictures looked good. I stayed for a few hours getting some work done and would come back as it is a very work conducive space. But I recommend they hire more friendly staff or be more intentional with eye contact, smiling and getting to know their customers. It was a little too "transactional" especially for a new cafe that is trying to grow. read more

It looks like it's usually just him and one other worker, and it got busy pretty quickly. Definitely coming back again soon!

Edible. At. All. The taste was bitter, a ton of cinnamon floating in my mouth with zero Matcha or oat milk flavor. Disgusting to say the least. Unfortunately, it will be my last visit. $7.25 of pure disgust! Pictures to follow.

You can actually taste the matcha without it being overwhelming, and the cold foam adds a great finishing touch. At $8 each, the portion size and quality feel worth the price. Service was fast and efficient: order at the front window, pick up at the back. My drinks were ready in about 2-3 minutes. I also appreciate that this is a Mexican-owned business, it's great to see local entrepreneurs creating something this high quality. The location fits perfectly with the concept, and I'll definitely be coming back.

They also don't serve breakfast on-site since they partner with a taco spot across the way, and that doesn't open until 10 a.m., so options were very limited at that time. The drink itself was just okay--I've had it before and expected a bit more since it's one of their popular items. I ordered a cold drink, and it was average, about a 3 out of 5. My best friend ordered a hot drink and enjoyed hers more than I did mine. As for the pan dulce, one felt a bit stale, so I chose another based on texture alone, and that one was noticeably fresher. Overall, I'd rate the experience a 3 out of 5 due to the limited morning options and inconsistency in freshness, though the staff and drinks weren't bad--just not outstanding this visit.

I really don't enjoy dark, burnt-tasting coffee, and this was clean and well balanced. The staff were polite and professional, and the overall atmosphere felt relaxed. It's located in a residential neighborhood, so the crowd leaned more local and low-key rather than overly trendy, which I appreciated. I also liked the music playlist, though lowering the volume just slightly would make it even better for reading or working. There's a small private parking lot, and street parking in the neighborhood seems manageable as well. The natural light is a major plus for me ... windows on three (or was it four?) sides of this standalone building make the space feel bright and airy. I'll definitely be back for light reading or getting some computer work done.

For drinks, I ordered the Sweet Corn Latte, and it was surprisingly delicious. The corn flavor wasn't overpowering; it was balanced perfectly so you could taste both the subtle sweetness of the corn and the coffee without either one taking over.

Plus ordering it all online made it super convenient. Lately, there appears to be a shift at Homeboy Coffee. My drinks have had issues with them (i.e., no coconut syrup, watered down, wrong milk, less espresso shot than previously). Now, the waffle is not available for purchasing through their online ordering system despite them available in the store. Overall, Homeboys is okay.

I found Gracias Cafecito through Instagram, and it truly lives up to its reputation as a local hot spot. Located in Paramount, CA, this coffee shop is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm smiles and an incredibly welcoming atmosphere. The service here is top-notch; every staff member is genuinely sweet and goes out of their way to make you feel at home. Now, let's talk about the coffee - it's nothing short of amazing. I've had the pleasure of trying several of their lattes, including the Spanish latte, pistachio latte, hazelnut latte, and banana oat milk latte. Each one was a delight, but the standouts for me were the banana oat milk latte and the pistachio latte. The banana oat milk latte is a revelation. It tastes so fresh and natural, like a delicious liquado, without any hint of artificial flavor. It's creamy, perfectly balanced, and just the right amount of sweetness. The pistachio latte has quickly become my new favorite and go-to drink. It's rich, nutty, and satisfying, making it a must-try for any coffee lover. The location of Gracias Cafecito is incredibly convenient, especially if you're in Paramount. It's cute and cozy, with easy parking and proximity to the freeways, making it a breeze to find. This place truly is a hidden gem in the neighborhood. If you're looking for a coffee shop with amazing service, delightful drinks, and a charming atmosphere, Gracias Cafecito is the place to be. I can't recommend it enough! read more
