    Outside patio
    Elly P.

    - Matcha x matcha: decent matcha flavor with a thin creamtop Ambiance: - Parking, free valet! - Zippy wifi - Seating: plenty inside and outside on the patio and even upstairs - Outlets: so many! this place is really setup like a study cafe

    On Monday evening, August 3rd, some of my relatives came from Korea, so after having a family dinner together at Seogwan Myeonok, we went to Motiq Coffee to have some coffee and tea. I've been going to this coffee shop often since it was still called Mi Cafe. They recently completely remodeled the place, so the exterior looks quite different now. First of all, they used to have really comfortable sofas in the outdoor patio area, but all of the sofas are gone now. They only have metal tables and chairs, which I didn't really like. Also, the indoor space used to have the doors firmly closed, but this time the doors were open, so we went inside to take a look. It seemed like that area wasn't completely open yet, but there were metal tables and chairs there as well. So we went in, sat down, and spent quite a long time (Maybe one hour?) chatting over coffee and tea. Then, at 10 p.m., a security guard came and told us that they close the doors at 10 and that we needed to leave, so we left. But even after we got outside, the security guard in the parking lot kept hurrying us along, telling us to leave quickly because it was already past closing time. I really didn't like that. Honestly, I really miss the cozy and comfortable sofas they used to have.

    Not even exaggerating when I say this is the best cafe in all aspects: matcha, coffee, food, outlets, tables, and FREE VALET PARKING! This place is always packed, their matcha is some of the highest quality I've had in the US, and their coffee is strong as well. The kimchi carbonara pasta is the perfect fusion dish and their coffee burrito is actually better than Wake LA's. Love that they have covered outdoor seatings with fans and mists for the summer and heatwave!

    Hojicha Latte and Matcha Latte

    This place is located on the corner of a white building upstairs. There is free underground parking if you cannot find a spot on the street. This business has indoor seating and a huge covered outdoor seating area. We ordered a hojicha latte with a hojicha chestnut cream top, a matcha latte, a breakfast burrito and kimchi fried rice. Everything was fantastic!!!! This is a new spot.

    Honestly, Motiq in K-town is a pretty solid addition to the neighborhood, especially if you need a spacious spot to park with a laptop and actually get some work done. They have a massive setup with plenty of room both inside and outside. They do have some parking, but I just grabbed a spot on the street to keep it simple. Space-wise, it's great, but the food and drinks were a bit of a mixed bag for me. I ordered the mango matcha and the Japanese salt bread. The matcha quality itself is clearly high, but the mango layer just did not want to mix into the drink at all without a ton of aggressive stirring. The salt bread wasn't quite as soft as I wanted it to be either, though that bright green cream they pipe down the middle looks great. Next time I'd probably just skip the fruit combos entirely and stick to a straight-up matcha latte if you really want to taste the good tea. Still a nice spot to hang out though.

    kimchi carbonara

    ~4.5/5 Overall a very solid cafe with limited but amazing breakfast/brunch food, plentiful seating with WiFi and outlets, and solid matcha. Cafe is really busy around peak hours (we went Friday 2-5pm) and the WiFi has very limited bandwidth and won't work if there's a lot of people. You need to use hotspot if it's busy so plan accordingly. Don't sleep on the food here. I came here because I saw a tiktok on the breakfast burrito and they were not lying about how good it was, paired with 3 different sauces (Chipotle was the best). We also got the kimchi carbonara and it was super creamy and rich, and crazy good. It did take a while to come out though. The double matcha is pretty good, not my favorite in ktown. I liked the matcha cream top but the matcha latte is on the milkier side once mixed. Cafe workers are kind, and offered to lower the shades once it got super sunny. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area.

    Loved the koi matcha, as someone who is very picky with matcha drinks. They are open late (8am-10pm)! So much indoor/outdoor seating across two floors and free valet parking downstairs. Recently upgraded their matcha powder and rebranded from mi cafe. Wifi sadly does not work so my friend and I had to use our hotspots.

    Matcha latte with matcha cream top
    Jasmine D.

    Was excited to check out Motiq Cafe after their rebranding! I stopped by on a Friday afternoon, and the cafe was busy with people working or hanging out with friends. There's an indoor seating area along with a spacious patio with plenty of outdoor seating. Parking was also easy - there's free valet in the underground garage, which makes visiting super convenient. I ordered the matcha with matcha cream top, less sweet, and absolutely loved it. The drink was so smooth and the matcha flavor was rich. It definitely is very comparable to the other popular double matcha drinks in Ktown. Overall, this is a great spot in Ktown, and I'll definitely be back to try more!

    The only downside here is the parking, which can be pretty limited, especially on weekends. Once you're inside though, the space is huge. There's plenty of indoor seating along with a large shared patio for the plaza, so it's easy to find a place to sit. This is a great spot to get work done. There are outlets everywhere, free wifi, and the staff provided awesome service throughout my visit. I tried the black sesame latte, which was absolutely outstanding, and the burger was surprisingly really good too. It's not often you find a place that does both coffee and food this well. Overall, it's a great place to be productive for a few hours while enjoying a good meal and coffee. Just be sure to plan ahead for parking if you're visiting on a busy weekend.

    Great matcha/coffee spot in Ktown that's great for working/studying from! To drink, I got the double matcha and it was pretty good and smooth. Good matcha volume with some dry notes, but not a deal breaker. The matcha cream top was also creamy and smooth. The drink was the perfect amount of sweetness. I'd still prefer Stagger's and Rok's double matcha over this, but this was still great. The interior and exterior are spacious with plenty of seats, tables, and outlets. There's also free Wifi available. I came on a Sunday noon and it was pretty busy, but I was able to get a good spot since I came early around 9:30am. During peak hours, you may have to wait some time like around 15-20 minutes for your order to be ready due to the popularity of this cafe. They also have free covered parking, bathrooms, and food besides pastries. You can honestly spend a good amount of time here! I would definitely recommend this spot and would come back.

    Breakfast burrito
    Martha E.

    Such a charming little café with a really welcoming atmosphere. It felt cozy from the moment I walked in.. though was a little confusing as it was on the second level and I had walked in from the street. And the service was kind throughout my short takeout visit. They accidentally gave me the wrong order, but mistakes happen, and it didn't take away from the overall experience. As soon as I got home I called to hopefully help the other person that would have been affected- and they were truly the nicest about the whole thing! So while I didn't get the Italian sandwich I ordered/wanted, I did get a delicious breakfast burrito instead. You can tell they put care into what they serve. The space itself is the kind of place you want to make plans to be for a long while. Great airy and breezy deck with plenty of plants and a robust WiFi. I'd definitely come back and give them another try!

    Omg, they changed their name from Mi Café to Motiq, but the drinks are just as good as I remember :) I highly, highly recommend the double matcha latte and the matcha strawberry latte, which is still my personal favorite. The quality has remained consistent, and the drinks are just as delicious as ever. They've also updated the layout and overall vibe of the café. It feels much more chic and modern now, replacing the cozy sofas and couches they used to have. While I do miss some of the comfy seating, the refreshed aesthetic is cute and inviting in its own way. As always, service is quick and efficient. The only downside is that it's definitely more crowded these days now that the café has gone viral. Still, the drinks are worth the visit, and I'll continue coming back whenever I'm craving a good matcha fix.

    Steve's Bolognese
    Vivian T.

    Great spot for tons of open seating, good food and coffee! The parking is valet as well, which is free and convenient. The only downfall was that we waited an hour for an avocado toast that was forgotten! We did come in multiple times but they reassured us that once the buzzer went off it would be ready. After a ton of patience, we had to eventually communicate that we think our order was forgotten. Other than that, I recommend the strawberry matcha, the Misugaru latte, and Steve's bolognese from here! It was a delicious meal and pairing with the drinks! So glad to try Motiq and check that off my cafe list!

It's relatively busy but the line moved swiftly. The Larchmont store was pretty lively with the crowded and colorful wall deco! It's pretty fun to see that they came up with more seasonal items lately and most of them nailed it well when they came to cookies. Previously the lemon one and the most recent was the Raspberry Pistachio which I was impressed by as I just fancied sweet and refreshing combo of white chocolate and raspberry. The pistachio added more texture to it for sure. Same as any Levain cookies, best enjoyed warm and fresh out of oven. The Cookie Milk Latte was actually the main reason bringing me here, yet I was bit let down by it as I was expecting more malty cookie flavor in the drink. I felt it tasted not much different to regular cream top latte with some cookie crumbles in it.

    Delicious drinks and creative pastries!…read more Tried Fondry LA and the matcha vanilla pistachio drink was definitely the highlight--so delicious and perfectly sweet without needing any sweetness adjustment. Easily my favorite thing I tried! The tofu cream croissant toast was airy and light, with a creamy topping that wasn't overly sweet. The mushroom béchamel was savory and good. I only got it because my brother suggested it. Normally I would not seek mushroom pastries even though I like mushrooms. The yuzu meringue croiffin was good, but I am not used to tart flavors in croissant/pastry combination. The cafe is very tiny, with only one table for seating, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot. There are seats outside. I also wanted to try the black sesame pastry, but didn't see it available when I visited. I'd definitely go back to try it. The drink was the standout for me!

The key is to go on a weekday to avoid the line, as the weekend can definitely get busy. This last time I finally got to try the tofu cream topped croissant, which was ~to die for~. It was a little bit savory with the miso but still (not too) sweet. This felt super original and I would definitely recommend. I also tried the pistachio croissant and asparagus danish this time round and both were extremely good as well. I would have no qualms with re-ordering either. The only note is the pistachio cream is pretty runny, so it's hard to cut and share, as the cream just oozes out. The workers there are super friendly and kind. The drinks are also very good if you're looking to get a little extra treat as well.
