And there's sooo many cafes to choose from in Cerritos. So that says a lot! I love being my friends and family here. Today, I brought one of my girlfriends with me and she ordered the strawberry matcha with cream top. She instantly loved it! She let me try as well and wow, it's delicious! Not too sweet and had a perfect balance of flavors! I highly recommend it! Again, get their sweet corn matcha when you go! That's a must. It's always busy when I go but the line moves quickly. There's a few tables inside but mostly for a hangout. I don't recommend doing work there. I only go on weekends so maybe weekdays are chill. There's plenty of parking! The staff are chill! I never had a bad experience. They're all knowledgeable of their drinks and are always friendly!

I heard a lot about homeboy from friends and occasionally got delivered orders in the past, but…read morethis was my first time at the café. Drinks (4/5): - I ordered an iced Matcha latte with vanilla sweetener, it was definitely good but did not taste like Matcha. - Based on what the menu said, I was under the impression that the Matcha latte comes originally unsweetened which is why I asked the barista for recommendation on sweetener to which they replied vanilla. - Now again, maybe this was my misinterpretation of the menu, but the receipt did say vanilla and then separately three pumps of sweetener. So next time, maybe I will do a better job inquiring about the drink and the menu. - Still a good drink that I enjoyed but definitely not much flavor of Matcha. Interior (4/5): - A pretty typical café layout with average space that is utilized well to create seating. - Many 1/2 seater tables in the café and outside as well. - My only critique was the volume of the music. I was at the café to do some reading and work, but even through my headphones with noise canceling, I was able to still hear the music and the bass. I felt that with that volume of music, it would have been hard to even have a conversation, but I can't say for sure because that's not what I was there for. Service (5/5): - Solid and standard service overall! I came at a time, when it seemed they had a lot of drinks in the queue, but didn't have to wait too long. Good vibes all around, but would be hesitant to recommend as a place to do work due to the music (perhaps varies day by day?). Hope to try more drinks in the future!

I visited 8th Symphony Coffee today as part of my mission to find the best sugar‑free latte while…read morecutting out sugary drinks from my diet. I placed a mobile order, and the process was smooth I received text updates when my order was confirmed and again when it was ready for pickup. The sugar‑free latte was impressive, definitely an 8/10. It was delicious with just a slight aftertaste, which is pretty common for sugar‑free drinks. I've had a few from other spots without that aftertaste, but overall this one was still very enjoyable. My husband ordered his usual hot drip coffee, which we always do when trying new locations so we can compare both iced and hot options. We're still searching for a place that truly satisfies his drip‑coffee cravings this one wasn't quite the winner for him. The staff was friendly, and the café has a good amount of seating, though most tables were taken during our visit. Very quiet and pleasant. Parking was also completely full, so be prepared for a busy lot if you stop by during peak hours.

I honestly didn't expect this place to be as spacious as it is looking at it from the outside ! The only thing is, parking can be tough when the other businesses in the plaza are busy too. Anyway, I tried the Saigon de leche which I love! My go to is usually a Spanish latte whenever it's on the menu and I enjoyed their version. The condensed milk flavor was really prominent but not too sweet. Customer service was friendly and also quick. Love that! Definitely will come back to try more of their drinks!

As someone who has regularly supported Ondo, I'm leaving this review to share a disappointing…read morepattern in customer service and shop policy. During one visit, requesting a simple sprinkle of cinnamon resulted in an unnecessary comment, after asking for cinnamon on my iced latte, Marcy (a shift supervisor) looked at me with annoyance and said "just to let you know it's hydrophobic so it's not going to mix" On another visit, when I tried to order my usual iced Americano with cold foam, Marcy refused, saying "those are just the rules." Even when I asked to simply purchase a side of cream top instead, she refused to sell it to me--which was baffling, considering other staff members have been making this exact drink for me without issue for the past two weeks. After messaging the owner, he explained that the shop restricts drink modifications to speed up service. However, the obvious miscommunication among staff shouldn't fall on the customer. It was extremely uncomfortable to be shut down and given a hard time by Marcy. While every business has the right to set its menu rules, denying basic customizations and refusing to sell a side of cream top feels overly rigid for a local coffee shop. The strict atmosphere makes for a stressful customer experience.

**3 stars -- Helpful info before you go**…read more I was really looking forward to trying this matcha ice cream café, especially since I've been searching for a good matcha-and-ube ice cream experience. The ice cream itself was enjoyable, but a few things about the visit may be helpful for other Yelpers to know in advance. They don't offer samples of the available ice cream flavors, which was surprising since many other ice cream shops do. Also, the flavors listed on Yelp and social media did not seem to reflect what was currently available in-store, so I'd recommend checking directly with the café before visiting if you have a specific flavor in mind. We ordered a Level 1 matcha and a mango waffle cone. The flavor options for mixing also appear to depend on what they have already prepared and available that day. There were no pastries available during our visit either. Service was a bit underwhelming, but hopefully the café can improve communication around current flavors, samples, and daily offerings. I'll continue my search for that ideal matcha-ube ice cream combination, but this could still be worth a stop if you're flexible and simply craving matcha ice cream.

Okay, the Dirty Nutty should be illegal for tasting this good. Definitely recommend getting this if…read moreyou like your coffee on the sweeter side! I was a little worried it might be too sweet or milky based on the name, but the balance was actually really good. You still get a strong espresso flavor, which I appreciated because I hate when a specialty latte just tastes like flavored milk. It's sweet, nutty, creamy, and still very much COFFEE. I would 100% order this again. They have instructions of how to drink this the right way. I stopped by on a Thursday afternoon because I was looking for somewhere to get some work done, and this ended up being such a nice find. It wasn't very busy, the atmosphere was calm, and they have free WiFi and tables available. Seating is a little limited though, so if you're specifically coming here to work for a few hours, I'd recommend getting here earlier to secure a spot. Service was also super welcoming. I did not get any judgment from the staff when I ordered a second Dirty Nutty! It's one of those coffee shops where you can actually settle in, enjoy your drink, and stay for a bit without feeling rushed.

It's a perfect blend of peanut butter everything with the espresso still coming through soooo good.

The flavor leaned more caramel-forward than nutty, which isn't really my preference, but I can see the appeal. It's also supposed to have earl grey undertones, but I honestly couldn't taste much of it in the drink. I could see myself coming back to Holos Coffee, but I'd want to try something different next time before forming a stronger opinion on the drinks overall.

It was nice to learn that they offer both kinds of halo halo in the smaller size. The only new surprise is now they charge extra to change the vanilla ice cream to the Ube ice cream. So this time we went with the original which comes with the Ube ice cream. It was nice they still let us eat in, but as soon as it hit 9:00pm, they went out from the back and told us they were closed and sort of pushed us out as fast as they were able to.

It was so underwhelming and unseasoned I genuinely sat there confused, like... is this a prank? Did somebody forget salt exists? My honey ordered the smash burger and it was also underseasoned and overcooked. A sad little double feature of disappointment. Service matched the food. Once they dropped the plates, they ghosted. Never table-touched, never checked in. They could literally see the looks on our faces and still kept walking by like we were invisible. We ended up throwing most of it away. I only took the egg and those sad, unseasoned potatoes home so I could try to rescue them myself. The bacon? Delicious. Absolute legend. Everything else tasted like it was cooked by someone who's never met a spice rack. To the owner: please, for the love of brunch, go find the seasoning. It's out there somewhere. We believe in you.
