    This was my first time trying Isshiki, and it didn't disappoint! It's quite spacious inside and nicely decorated (I heard they rent this space and it becomes a bar at night). Sadly I didn't get to try a matcha drink since it was later in the day and I wanted to be able to sleep well, so I got a hojicha latte with oat milk (no sweetener). It was sooo good. There's also a decent amount of seating available at tables and at the bar. The baristas were very nice as well, and our drinks didn't take too long to prepare.

    It was a cold day, we were looking for hot drinks, and we happened to stumble upon this place. We were instantly greeted as we walked in and handed over a menu. I decided to order a hot strawberry matcha. When ordering, the worker advised me that the strawberry matcha didn't taste too well "hot" and she gave me a few other recommendations. I ended up ordering a small hot caramel matcha and it was soooo good. It was creamy, frothy, and wasn't too sweet. It was pretty busy inside so we stood by the bar area to wait for our drinks. The inside is well decorated and had nice music playing.

    the double pistachio matcha was so disappointing -- it was extremely diluted. I couldn't tell if the oat milk was super watery or they added too much water to the matcha, but it was almost undrinkable. I barely tasted the matcha

    Isshiki is best known for their strawberry matcha latte, and I finally came here to try their matcha and recently launched fruit sando (using milk bread from Pairing Cafe) *Strawberry Cream Sando $10 *Strawberry Matcha Cream Sando $11.5 ** You can add $1.5 to swap the original cream for matcha cream on any of their fruit sandos. The matcha version is my favorite, as the earthy flavor is balanced by the sweet and ripe strawberries. The strawberries are evenly layered throughout the entire sando, not just a few pieces you see in the cross section. *Strawberry Matcha Latte $8.5 (M) ** First time trying their bestselling strawberry matcha and WOW I get the hype! The housemade strawberry puree was amazing, with real strawberry bits throughout. The matcha was richer than expected too, which you could tell from its deep green color. *Egg Salad Sando $12.5 Loved that they offer a savory sando option! I just wish it had more filling for the price, as it felt on the smaller side. *White Chocolate Hojicha $9 (M) A warm, cozy drink perfect for a snowy day The hojicha was rich and chocolatey, with a nice foamy texture.

    A very convenient place to get matcha if you're near SoHo. There also is seating if you are working or chatting with a friend. I got the strawberry matcha latte. The menu is limited but the matcha itself is very strong which is something I enjoy. The taste of the matcha is more umami and grassy, but still enjoyable. My only suggestion is improving the strawberry syrup because it tasted more like a very concentrated jam, and it didn't complement the matcha as well as I would like. I would go back again because of the higher matcha quality and the stronger matcha taste. I wouldn't say it's my favorite place but compared to the rest of NY, it's more towards the top of my list.

    We came to Isshiki for a snack before lunch, so we only got the egg sando (~$12.50 including tax). The filling of the egg sando was creamy, with chunky cuts of egg, and it was overall flavorful. However, the filling was a little more chilled than I would have liked, the bread tasted a little dry, and the serving size was small for the price. You order in the bar area. If you order food, they will bring it to your seat when it's ready, and if you order a drink they will call it out for you to pick-up. I would be interested in trying the strawberry matcha if I'm ever in the area again. The café felt cozy due to the moss décor, and comfortable seating. There is one bathroom in the back that was spacious and clean.

    I went early during the week there was a few people eating in. The inside was kind of dark and someone was fixing something in the back. I got the egg sando the strawberry matcha sando and the Sakura iced matcha. I really enjoyed the matcha it was pretty smooth and just enough sweetness I would return for the drinks but not the sandwiches. The egg salad was small and didnt have much flavor it could use some salt the strawberry matcha was better it was a little bigger and the cream was good. Theres a few tables to sit at if you arrive early enough. The service wasnt the friendliest and seemed annoyed to be honest.

    Matcha Latte. Large. $7.50 + tax. Way too little matcha flavor. Just not good

    I went to this alright matcha place a couple of months ago. Compared to many of the other matcha spots, they seem to specialize more in matcha drinks mixed with fruits and other things, similar to fruit tea places, which is a bit different. The prices ranged from $6.50 to $7.50 plus tax, depending on whether it was a small, medium, or large for a plain matcha latte, with there being no price difference if you get iced, which is a bit different, at least compared to most other spots. The staff was friendly, and I decided to get a large one as it was only a dollar difference anyway. The milk choices were whole, almond, or oat, and I went with whole, and the drink came out relatively quickly. The texture was fine, lacking any chalkiness, with the powder being properly whisked, but the flavor was lacking as compared to other places; I barely tasted the tea. I don't mind having milk, but this tastes like milk with a hint of matcha in it. Possibly the clue was the color being much lighter, but this is the first spot in a long while that I would compare negatively to my usual least favorite matcha spot, Cha Cha. If it were $5 or something, I might try once more, but at this price point, it's wasted. At least, I got a nice photo by the flowers with it.

    Isshiki is a cafe known for their matcha. There's some seats inside but the cafe definitely gets a good amount of foot traffic. I got their strawberry matcha and I would say it took about 7-10 mins for my order. I enjoyed the matcha!

    Strawberry Matcha

    One of the best strawberry matcha I've had! I got less sweet with oat milk, and it's sooo tasty and smooth. They don't skimp on the matcha at all, putting 2 giant scoops (probably 4-5g?) into each drink. The strawberry puree is fresh and doesn't taste artificial. My friend ended up getting a second one of herself because it was so yum. I really like this place and can't wait to come again!

    Hazelnut Matcha
    Victoria K.

    Loved how strong the matcha was and the deep green, but this small cup was so expensive ($9). I also ordered a hazelnut matcha latte, and although the matcha was good, I didn't taste any hazelnut. My friend and I sat at the bar while we had our drinks, and a lot of people seemed to be getting the strawberry one, so that might be the way to go.

    Pricey, but tasty matcha. Paid about $9 for a small strawberry latte, but it was the perfect sweetness and the matcha flavor really came through without ever being bitter or feeling gritty. Issika is located inside of a tapas bar, so it's confusing at first, but it's a great dual use of the space. The staff are also friendly and there's a good amount of seating inside to escape the weather.

    One of the better matcha I've had!! I got the strawberry matcha and it was good. Strong matcha flavor! The other one is brown sugar matcha which my husband liked. He also said it's one of the better matcha place we've had. Definitely would get again! It is a bit pricey. The space inside is small and cozy. Good place to sit and have a chat!

My honest review, not my favorite cookie! It leaned a little too dry and crisp and didn't have enough of that soft gooey-ness for me. Just not my preferred style! They weren't bad, but no where near my favorite. It is fun that they have a few different flavors though including the Korn cookie!

The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

While it was a fun and unique drink, I probably should have opted for something else. The topping was literally like actual tiramisu rather than just tiramisu flavoring, and it felt like there was more ice and tiramisu than latte. Personally, I would have preferred more of the tiramisu flavor without the full tiramisu texture mixed into the drink. That said, it was an interesting concept and I'm glad I tried it. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another latte on a future visit.

I've worked in restaurants and bars long enough to understand that staff drinking happens, but this was on another level entirely. I came in with a group of friends and one of the bartenders, Will, was so visibly drunk that it made the entire experience uncomfortable. Slurred speech, wobbling behind the bar, taking orders while chewing food with his mouth open -- it was honestly embarrassing to watch. He looked like he absolutely did not want to be there. At one point, my group had been trying to get his attention for another round for quite a while while he stood around talking with coworkers. We then watched staff take a shot together, and when he finally came over he burped mid-conversation and literally had whatever he had just been drinking dribbling down his neckbeard. That was the moment where the whole thing went from unprofessional to just gross. What made it worse was that it didn't seem isolated to one employee. Throughout the night we watched staff openly taking shots and drinking behind the bar like it was a house party instead of a business. There's a difference between bar culture and complete lack of professionalism, and this crossed that line hard. One of the friends I was with actually frequents the DUMBO location and said that the last time she was there, the same bartender also seemed intoxicated, which makes this feel less like a bad night and more like an ongoing issue. The DUMBO location itself is in an amazing spot, which makes it even more disappointing. But ownership seriously needs to get control of what's going on there before someone gets hurt or the place develops a reputation for having drunk staff on the clock. Unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable enough that my girlfriends and I won't be coming back. I genuinely hope the employee mentioned gets help if this is a regular thing, because nobody should be working service in that condition.
