The Malaki coffee was VERY good but VERY HOT. Wait a while before drinking! The pastries are lovely and look delicious but the staff who helped me couldn't confirm if any were gluten-free so I didn't buy any food. It can be pricey (especially if you get something besides coffee, like a latte) so this is only somewhere I would go once in a while, even though it was delicious. Maybe at some point I'll splurge and try other drinks.
Came in with friends. None of us were satisfied. First off when I asked the girls at the counter which is their most popular pastry. She just looked at me and pointed directly to something near her. And I took her word for it. It was the raspberry pastry. I also got a strawberry matcha. Mango dragon fruit drink was made wrong and the girls were confronting each other about it. Also got the mango pastry. We tried the spinach savory pastry as well and a berry croissant. The spinach pastry would have tasted better warmed up but it was cold. The fruit pastry weren't tasty at all. The mango dragonfruit drink was overly sweet was not edible we threw it out. The matcha was sweet as well and it wasn't a good matcha. 0/10 wouldn't come back again. Oh and they do have a leak by the garage area which one of us almost fell while trying to throw something out.
Cozy wfh cafe for early birds and night owls!! Moka & Co is a chain cafe serving Yemeni coffee, pastries and cakes. I visited their Astoria location, which opens till midnight on weekdays and 2am on weekends. They also have locations in Manhattan and Brooklyn with different opening hours. Their pistachio desserts are seriously delicious, especially the Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Cake. Imagine when pistachio tiramisu meets dubai chocolate bar. ＊Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Cake*** Love at first bite!! The cake consisted of chocolate cake, pistachio cream, crunchy kunafa, and crushed pistachio. It was nutty, slightly sweet, and moist. A decadent dessert for pistachio lovers as the pistachio flavor truly shines. ＊Pistachio Napoleon Cake Roll** We were recommended to try their pistachio Napoleon roll and it won our heart instantly! It was basically a Napoleon pastry but rolled up like a Swiss roll. The center was filled with sweet cream and berries, with a cookie-like cracked topping baked onto the outside of the cake roll. ＊Bee Bites (Honey Comb Cake) You have to get their honey comb cake, a traditional Yemeni bread made of small dough balls filled with cream cheese and drizzled with honey. The sweet and savory flavors grew on me. It was served warm and perfect with a cup of coffee. ＊Moka Spice Latte They have so many interesting coffee and specialty drinks! Yemeni beans and traditional spices gave the Moka Spice Latte its uniquely aromatic profile. ＊Iced Pistachio Latte I got why people liked their pistachio latte--it was pistachio-forward while I could still taste the coffee. Just a note that their drinks were pretty sweet for me. I'd ask for less sugar next time. ＊Mango Dragon Fruit Refresher Beautiful color layers. Yet it was too sweet for me. They also added too much ice to the drink. It might be more refreshing for summer.
Cuisine: 8 Service: 7 Decor: 8 Value: 7 Overall: 8 Can't ask for much more, maybe a little less crowded and more spacious seating. Otherwise, a beautiful cafe with high ceilings and nice decorative walls. The drinks were all very satisfying, while the cakes were surprisingly good and not too sweet. Skip the Dubai Chocolate though. It wasn't bad, though definitely less crunchy and sweeter than most I have tried.
I'm not a coffee snob. I don't care about the difference between a flat white and a cappuccino. I don't care about the origin of the beans or the roast profile. I just want a good cup of coffee that makes me feel alive. And that's exactly what I found at Moka & Co., a cozy little cafe in the heart of the city. It's not your typical hipster joint with exposed brick walls and Edison bulbs. It's more like a hidden gem, tucked away in a quiet alley, with a simple sign and a warm glow. But what really sets Moka & Co. apart is their signature drink: the saffron latte. Now, I know what you're thinking. Saffron? In coffee? That sounds weird, right? Well, let me tell you, it's not just weird. It's magical. The first time I tried it, I was skeptical. I mean, saffron is expensive and delicate. How could it possibly work with coffee? But as soon as I took my first sip, I was hooked. The aroma was intoxicating. The color was golden and inviting. The taste was sublime. It was like drinking liquid sunshine. The saffron added a subtle floral note to the rich espresso, while the milk smoothed out any bitterness and added creaminess. The sweetness was perfectly balanced by a hint of cardamom and honey. It was unlike anything I've ever tasted before. It made me feel happy and energized at the same time. It made me want to dance on tables and sing in public (which I did). It made me fall in love with coffee all over again. I've been back to Moka & Co. many times since then, but nothing compares to that first experience with their saffron latte. It's become my go-to drink whenever I need some inspiration or motivation or just some pure joy in my life. And every time I order it, the barista smiles knowingly and says "You're gonna love this." And he's always right. Because he knows that this is not just any drink. This is THE BEST DRINK EVER. And if you don't believe me, go try it for yourself. You won't regret it. Trust me on this one. Moka & Co.'s saffron latte will change your life forever. Or at least make your day better than ever before! So what are you waiting for? Go get yourself some magic in a cup! You deserve it!
Moka & Co deserves all the hype that it gets and I'm glad that they're expanding their number of locations rapidly. I would say that this place is a lot better than Qahwah House which is comparable to it (and the service is a lot better on top of that). Whether it's the refreshers/coffees or the desserts, Moka & Co has a wide selection of goodies. I liked the lotus biscoff tres leches but to be honest I would definitely not call it a tres leches as there was no milk and it was quite dry. Was it still good? Yes, but let's call it a lotus biscoff cake to prevent confusion :). I'll be back!
Revisited Moka & Co recently with my sister to get some work done. While the space is large and airy, I found myself hunting for a table with an outlet - there aren't many, which is a bit of a bummer when your laptop's about to flatline (note to laptop workers: outlet is located at the high seats and two tables near the entrance wall). They do have Wi-Fi though, so that's a plus! This time around, I decided to skip their more unique offerings like the Yemeni coffee and Shai Adeni, which didn't quite hit the mark for me on a previous visit. Instead, I opted for the Pistachio Latte, and my sister went for their Strawberry Lemonade refresher. Pistachio Latte ($9) This Pistachio Latte was pure magic. Hands down one of the best lattes my sister and I have ever had. The balance of sweetness and pistachio flavor was spot on, and it wasn't too bitter. This is definitely going to be my go-to from this spot from now on. 5/5 stars for sure. Strawberry Lemonade ($7) My sister's Strawberry Lemonade was everything she hoped for - sour, tart, and super refreshing. She gave it 4.5 stars, saying it was pretty much perfection in a cup. Service was on point, too - they brought our drinks to the table, which is always appreciated. Overall, I'm bumping my rating up to a full 5 stars. This spot has its quirks, but the drinks definitely make up for it.
This Yemeni cafe @mokacocoffee just became a hidden gem on my foodie map. Good vibes and great flavor. Pistachio cake so soft it crumbles with a glance, paired with the creamiest latte I've had in a while. They sell the viral Dubai Chocolate bars if you love those as I do. I like their Pistacchio Latte. Very addictive ! They have a few locations and I went to the one in Steinway Street. Perfect for big groups with plenty of seating and spacious area. What we ordered (all amAzing !) - Mufawar latte - Pistacchio latte - Moka spice latte - Pistacchio cake - Dubai Chocolate milk cake - Pistacchio croissant
Moka & Co is a great Yemeni cafe in queens! It was poppin' on a weekend night and i get why it's a popular spot! We had to wait a bit for our fo to come out but the staff was kind and helpful. They use original, handpicked Yemeni coffee beans in their coffee and have sooo many dessert options! What we ordered: Shai Adeni ($22 teapot) Pistachio latte ($8) Dragon fruit refresher ($7) Pistachio croissant ($9) Pistachio mousse ($10) Kunafa cheesecake ($10) Bee bites ($10) Baklava i would definitely come back just for a cup of the shai adeni! i can't stop thinking about it cause it's my new favorite milk tea - it's a creamy blend of cardamom and tea if you want a light pistachio dessert, get the pistachio mousse - it has a strong pistachio flavor but has a soft mousse with a bit of raspberry filling bee bread is a classic dessert at Yemeni coffeeshops; it's sweet and savory - a nice balance between honey and cream cheese i would absolutely recommend the pistachio croissant! it was soooo flaky and soft, and i looooved the pistachio cream filling! the mango dragonfruit refresher was pretty but a little too sweet for me (kinda like a jolly rancher), but I liked the chunks of dragonfruit bits in it. pistachio latte was reallllly good - creamy and flavorful there are many seats here + they're open until midnight = perfect spot to chill with your family and friends!
It was a very nice day, we were walking around Astoria looking for a dessert place that could help me and my cousin with our sweet tooth and I believe we found one!! This place has so many options of dessert I was surprised to find it! I would recommend the cakes because they are fresh and moist, the only thing is that the cakes that have bread or some sort of donut didn't taste that fresh so I would pick the other options! I would definitely go back and try their beverages, they look delicious!!! The place is open, clean and gorgeous! Perfect for a date too!! Service was fast and very kind about all of our requests

Newly opened cafe serving authentic Yemeni-style coffee and desserts in a large, beautifully decorated space with plenty of seating. The variety is quite impressive from specialty coffee, tea, and sweets that are (wait for it) not too sweet! As a coffee lover, the highlight for me was definitely the Turkish coffee--suuuper rich, bitter, strong! If only I didnt live 1.5hrs away, this wouldve definitely be one of my go-tos. read more

This was my second time coming here. I love iced coffee and I always get excited to try new coffee places. However, this place has been a disappointment both times I have visited. I got the iced mufawar the first time I went, but the server was not helpful in helping me decide what would be best for my sweet tooth. I was asking her for recommendations but she just kept telling me everything was good, even if I asked her specifically about the most popular drink recommendations. She also told me anything could be made sweet, so despite asking her to put extra sweetener in my iced coffee, I still found myself adding at least 4 more packets of the dominos sugars from the counter into my drink. Would not recommend the iced mufawar if you have a sweet tooth like me. Also during my first visit, my friend got the iced adeni chai which was definitely better than my drink. It was more on the sweeter side. I think it's because the cold foam helped. I decided to give this place another chance today. During my second visit, I decided to get the iced adeni chai since it was made good for my friend during my first visit. However, not only was it darker and less sweet (despite asking for extra sweetener again) but the barista FORGOT my cold foam, the part that I think makes the drink stand out. I stepped outside of the store and noticed and then had to go back inside and ask for it. I think the drinks truly depend on the barista who makes it, because it was not as good as it was the first time. I also tried the iced moka spice latte which was a bit better than any of the drinks I have tried from here, but still not up to my standards. This place is also very overpriced for the quality of drinks that are made. However, it is spacious, bright, and gives a good vibe. They also have a few seats outdoors if you want to enjoy your drinks while watching the bustling neighborhood of Astoria. Good location with multiple shops and eateries around. However, you could definitely find a better coffee place around town. Overall, I would not go out of my way to go back to this place and would suggest to stick to Qahwah House. They are the OG. I have not come across anyone else who makes Yemeni coffees as delicious as them. read more

A little pricey Lovely staff Delicious drinks that were so strong I'm not sure about the cakes and stuff - but we tried this bread today and it was delicious and served warm and drizzled w honey - like knafeh but not really. Don't even know the name but try it read more
Got intruiged. Tried it. Loveddddd it! This spot is perfect for coffee dates, hang out with friends and even studying space. They specialize in Yemeni coffee and serves yummy high quality desserts. The coffee shop has an ample amount of seating. We went on a morning when it was still quiet and peaceful but few hours later the shop got a little busier. The service is very nice. The place is kept clean and has gorgeous interior. I love the ambiance of this place! What we ordered: *Turkish Coffee (Pot) *Iced Pistacchio Latte *Hazelnut Filled Croissant *Mango Heart *Cheesacake *Iced Caramel Macchiato We will definitely be back soon! read more
Coffee was so good I wanted to swim in it. Like a lil hot tub of a high quality brew and spices. And the cake was soooo light we adoreddddd it. Our cashier was so sweet and patient with us. Pookie if you're reading this I appreciate that because we were indecisive for a sec :') Overall atmosphere was like you went on YouTube and searched "relaxing jazz music coffee shop ambience for studying". The music, the subtle sounds of the barista slaying every drink, and the mumble of various conversations was just cozy. read more

Cool open airy space. Nice music, though it seems like the same song, which was a good one, was played on repeat. Service was friendly, and the lady at the counter suggested moka latte and the Dubai pistachio milk cake for me. They were both good choices for me. Although next time I wonder if I can find a dessert that's not so heavy on cream and lower in sweetness. There are different milk options, and decaf options. I thought the price for drinks and dessert was a tad expensive, but they're also large. It's be great if there are half portions for half the price for desserts! read more

The Maleki is exactly what I was craving. I love the spices used in middle eastern-style coffee. They also have quality Yemen coffee, which is why it's more expensive. I wish the pastries had allergen labels and prices listed. Otherwise a great shop and I'll be back to try more soon!! read more

Checked out this new cafe on Steinway shortly after it opened. My first impression is that this is an amazingly sized place great for large groups or finding a seat to camp out and work in. I tried the Lotus Cheesecake which was pricy and unfortunately very delicious lol. Do beware that the prices are on the steep side - if you're looking for a cheap cup of Joe you won't find it here! read more

Their lattes are good I would recommend the white mocha or salted caramel latte however that's all that was it was good for. They did not have prices for the cheese and milk cakes or any of their sweets so it was quite a shocker to see the total. It was way too much for a slice of cake. I was confused as to why they charged it so high. This is definitely a grab some coffee and go place. The interior was nice, lots of seating. read more

I come here for my study dates since I started boycotting Starbucks. The vibe is amazing, the workers and owner are so so nice and welcoming, the coffee tastes delicious and is affordable. And in a recent protest for Palestine I saw the owner giving out free coffee/tea to all the people passing by which I thought was very generous and nice of him to do. I definitely recommend coming here! read more
I got the large iced shai and enjoyed it! It was a bit sour which I didn't expect. It came to a total of almost $9 which is pretty crazy for a drink.. I would come back to try their lattes and desserts since the ambiance is super nice with plenty of seating. read more

Service was wonderful, the location is very spacious and clean. But the prices for the quality of food was way too over the top. My dough was raw, my husband's juice was super sweet, he couldn't even finish it, and my tea did not have the authentic aromatic flavor. read more

Visited this spot over the weekend and was highly pleased. I had the Moka Spiced Latte and my husband had the Turkish coffee. I also had the chocolate lobster tail and took two Reese's cupcakes to go for my sons. We really enjoyed the coffee and the overall ambiance of the place. Service wasn't bad considering that it was only two of them and there was a little bit of a line. We loved the decor and the ample seating. Will definitely be going back! read more

my friend and i came here a couple weeks ago because we wanted some late night dessert and found this bakery appealing based off our options. we arrived and were surprised by the dubai chocolate and pistachio options. can't say we loved the pistachio napoleon cake which was recommended. however what you don't see is that there was a hair in the pistachio roll cake. i didn't take a picture because i quickly took it up to the cashier. one worker looked at it and then showed it to another workers and waited for the cashier to be done before she was able to offer me a refund. everyone offered me a replacement cake but honestly, i wouldn't have wanted to order anything else to eat. i asked for a refund for my one hair filled dessert but it would've been nice if they offered something else because that's just gross! also, even though the cashier gave me a refund, i never actually got it. i had to dispute the $12 with my bank and because i'm honest, i only disputed the $12 and not the entire cost of the dessert, which was $32. would i come again? maybe... read more
