    Smoked salmon panini
    Jana S.

    Cute small business good for a casual bite or drink. I got the smoked salmon panini which was filling yet light, with a good amount of smoked salmon. Service was friendly and quick. The interior is a bit dated but cozy nonetheless.

    The food at Kaffa is always good each time I visit, I always get the half and half with chicken pesto sandwich and Chinese chicken salad. The iced tea is on the sweeter side if you get one of the offered fruit syrups. Nice family run place.

    We came here early morning right when they opened since we happened to be in the area. Upon entrance, it was like a warm hug from the crisp 55 degree weather outside. We were greeted with a sweet lady and friendly smile. She made us feel welcome Ordered and within a few minutes we had our coffee brought to the table. The regular drip coffee was delicious! A few minutes later we had our egg, tomato and cheese panini. Fantastic! If in the area, check them out. Great breakfast and coffee spot!

    I definitely recommend. The service was pleasant and fast. I loved how the Coffeehouse felt like a small quaint bistro.

    Great coffee. Tons of options to get. A great place to visit and unwind from the busyness of everyday.

    Ultimate Chinese Chicken Salad & Southwest Turkey Club
    Vanessa G.

    This place was recommended by a co-worker so I decided to give it a try. I made rush to take a late lunch to miss the lunch rush. It's a small, cozy little restaurant in the middle of a busy plaza. The Chinese chicken salad is what they are known for and now I know why. It is scrumptious!!!! Packed with flavor, great portion and will leave you 100% satisfied. The panini's were ok. It was a lot of bread and very little filling. I ordered the zesty lemon tuna, which I was very pleased with the taste. It's just too bad there was only of smidge of Tuna in my sandwich. I would definitely go back because the salad alone was worth it.

    Happened to stumble across this place while visiting CHOC Food was quick and tasty, and service was friendly and efficient. Chill vibe as well. Quiet with nice background music

    I would give 0 stars if I could. Being accused I got my correct order when I didn't. I paid for 2 of the same meals. Both with 2 extra dressings and both with extra wontons that I paid for. Meaning I was charged $4 extra for the dressings on top of the 1 each I'm supposed to receive for each meal that means a total of 6 dressings and I was only given 3 total. I paid $1 each for the total of 4 bags of wontons since 1 is already given with the meal and only receiving 2. The guy who "bagged" my order says I'm wrong and didn't want to put the manager on the phone. I come here almost once a week- twice a week and order the same exact thing and never had this horrible experience. The owners need to stay working the front house because their workers think they're doing it right when they are not and blame the customer that the order is correct. Horrible customer service. Make sure you check your orders before leaving, especially if the owners are not working and bagging your orders up. Picture of proof that I ordered and was charged for what I ordered but never received the right amount of what I paid for.

    I wish I lived closer because I would go here daily!…read more Stopped by late one evening on my way home -- the amazing aroma floats through as you walk toward Coffee Heist and I was excited before I even got there based on how yummy it smells walking in to store. I got an iced coffee for the next morning and a jasmine tea for that evening -- both were exquisite. The tea was refreshing and the coffee is so flavorful, strong without being bitter and lots of delicious notes. The guy working behind the counter was so kind too -- appreciate his thoughtfulness once he found out I would drink it next morning, he held on putting ice in so it would stay concentrated til the next day. I need to go back and buy a pound or two of coffee -- or maybe they can open one closer to me in LA too :)

I was fortunate to be greeted and assisted by Hector, who kindly and patiently described their offerings. Not familiar with Vietnamese coffee, upon hearing me express my dislike for anything too sweet, he presented me with a coffee drink that I enjoyed (despite also avoiding rich & creamy beverages)! My first experience of a Vietnamese coffee was luxuriously smooth and tasty. I like the wood furnishings and open windows giving an open-&-airy feel in this small, cute-&-comfortable shop. Fun find!

The space is really bright and calm with a ton of seating, and there were lots of people working on laptops, so it definitely feels like a good place to hang out for a while. What I loved most was the neighborhood vibe. People were greeting the barista by name and saying "see you next time" when they left, which made it feel like one of those local spots everyone secretly wants as their regular coffee shop. The barista was super friendly too and chatted with me while making my drink. I ordered the iced vanilla latte and it was great--smooth and not overly sweet (which is rare because vanilla lattes can easily taste like dessert). Overall, very cute spot, great vibe, and good coffee. If I lived closer this would definitely become one of my regular stops.

I believe their espresso leans toward a lighter roast, coming through bright and expressive, while the milk drinks are dialed in with that smooth, silky texture that makes you want to savor. That said, the drinks don't always scratch the itch for me in the way I might expect but it might just be that their speciality drinks aren't quite what I typically look for. Nonetheless I do still think they have a strong coffee program and a team that clearly cares about craft.

    I remember trying to go here a while back ago when it blew up on TikTok but ended up not sticking…read morearound because it was so crowded (and also because I got harassed by a neighbor outside who, in his own words, was trying to make people feel not welcome here because he was angry about people coming in and parking in the neighborhood... weird). Still, I decided to give this place a second chance (no angry neighbor this time), and I was glad I did! PARKING: There's street parking around the neighborhood - I parked on Almond Ave so I wasn't in front of a house. The spots right outside the shop were 30 minute only. If you can't find parking there's probably tons as you go east if you're willing to walk. WHAT I ORDERED: Pistachio cream cold brew THE DRINK: Amazing. I've had my share of acidic or bitter cold brews, and this was not one of them. The cream was perfectly sweetened and flavored . SERVICE: Exceeded my expectations. The baristas when I came in were very bubbly and answered my questions and gave me suggestions, and were funny too! I wish I got their names, but they were working on Monday early afternoon - I hope they get some recognition. We also got some samples of the food items (which may have swayed me to get the turkey panini next time I come in). Even with the experience I had above a while back ago, I remember going in to let the baristas know and they were very understanding and apologetic, which I really appreciated. VIBES: Probably one of the top coffee shops to get work done in OC. Here's my work-from-coffee-shop checklist: * OUTLETS: So many. Not at the tables downstairs but in the private rooms and at a lot of the seating upstairs. * WIFI/INTERNET: Yes, good speed * BATHROOMS: Yes, clean * WATER: You can ask for free water * VOLUME: Music was a little bit loud but not terrible * SEATING AVAILABILITY: Lotsssss of seats when I came on a Monday late morning-afternoon. Very cool that there were private rooms (which can be reserved two hours in advance if you call them), tables, bar-style seating upstairs, and most importantly, comfy couches!! * LAPTOP FRIENDLINESS: No restrictions BOTTOM LINE: I can't believe I almost missed out on this gem. I'll be back soon!

    Food/Drinks: matcha…read morelatte - not the richest matcha taste or quality and when i got it with oat milk, the oat milk flavor ended up overpowering the matcha a bit. although, it wasn't bad it was still decent to sip on while working! iced caramel macchiato - on the sweeter end of drinks and if you get oat milk it will overpower the taste a bit but still a decent drink banana cream matcha latte - has the creamy texture from the banana cream and surprisingly the banana didn't have a strong artificial banana taste. to me, that's a little rare and in a good way. the matcha isn't a strong matcha taste but still present avocado toast with egg - it was plated and presented nicely which i was kinda surprised about. it tasted decent. the bread is on the softer/soggier end rather than the crispy and toasted end. the sauce and radish overpowers the taste. i got a runny sunny side egg and it was a nice addition for me. service: this spot has one of the nicest helpful service. i was here for a few hours working and despite shift changes, each new staff who was working were so nice and helpful! ambiance: it's such a bright and spacious spot with a few study rooms and many seating. it's bright and has a cozy wooden feel. i love that there are many outlets and it's not overcrowded or too loud. it was the perfect spot to work at!

I actually moved to the City of Orange in my early 20s during MY college days and IMO at that time, it was truly a retirement town. It was always peaceful where traffic was at a minimal and everyone's bedtime was by 10pm. I recalled being a typical Asian woman driver and always went the wrong direction at the roundabout. Things have changed so much since then. My own son has already graduated from college and now accompanies me going to that same roundabout, except now there's a lot more nicer restaurants and bars. We made our way to Urth Cafe and it wasn't as busy as I had expected, especially when compared to the locations in L.A. and Pasadena. I personally think this is my favorite location so far because it actually feels cozier (my son said the same about the cozy vibe). We both ordered an Omelette - mine was a Pesto Chicken with cheese. I actually requested to not have Goat cheese on mine but it came with it - so that was as why I had to remove 1 star out of 5 :( My Chicken soup tasted marvelous and my Latte was beautifully crafted. It was a great Sunday and I was so glad my son also had a great time!
