Matcha 9/10 I went a while ago and dont remember much, but that means its worth to go again. Bad matcha spots are definitely memorable. Loved their coconut water matcha, cant speak about their milk-based drinks. Service 8/10 Normal register experience, I like that they take care to wipe every cup/rim before calling your name. Ambiance 9/10 pretty photo spots This spot gets extra points for being directly connected to Lasung, I walked directly through the back of the restaurant. Great meal + dessert drink combo :) read more

matcha duo ($7.5) - good strong matcha! Pretty similar to stagger - it's on the sweeter side though and more creamy; if you like creamy matcha this would be for you - while it is good, i do think it's a bit small for the price and id rather go to damo or yeems for matcha rating: 4/5 - solid spot for matcha but would go elsewhere for matcha since this is a bit more pricey than other spots i like more - it's got a classy clean looking interior; you can also sit outside but not much vibes IG: @nom.noms.only read more

Stopped by on a Sunday around 6:30 PM, and the café was still pretty lively. There was a bit of a wait, and street parking was the biggest challenge. I ended up parking about a block away, so prepare for that if you're coming during peak hours. I ordered the Tropical Hibiscus and the Coconut Matcha Einspanner. The Tropical Hibiscus was a great caffeine-free option with a light, citrusy flavor that was really refreshing. The Coconut Matcha Einspanner was the standout. The coconut water made it incredibly refreshing, and the matcha was smooth and light without being too earthy or overpowering. Everything worked well together, and I'd order it again without hesitation. The cafe itself has a clean, modern aesthetic featuring a pretty tree in the middle. They also have a photo booth inside that was fun, although the photo quality looked like it was printed on a receipt which could be a vibe. The music fit the atmosphere well and made the space feel relaxed without being too loud. Overall, it's a nice spot to grab a drink and spend some time with friends. Parking can be a hassle, but the drinks and atmosphere make it worth the trip. I'd definitely come back to work my way through more of the menu. read more

Suffice it to say, I'm not really that big on matcha. It's not that I hate it, I just think I'd be fine without it‍. With that being said, I've always seen this store with a super large crowd in the front whenever I'm in LA and I was curious to see what the hype was about. Going in knowing this is such a favorite matcha spot for so many people didn't make me think any more or less of it. If anything, it just confirmed my feelings toward matcha. Don't get me wrong, the drink was really good!!! I just don't think it's for me (and that line wasn't for me either). I really did enjoy the free black and white photobooth that prints on a receipt paper though and the store itself is super cute!!! If I were to recommend a matcha spot to someone this would definitely be on my list! I can understand why people love this place so much. read more

Cute place to grab matcha. I got the normal cream top matcha and while it was really good I've also had better. It was a little too earthy for my taste. I would be interested in trying the fruit infusion ones like the mango and blueberry next! read more

My daughter had been to Rok Coffee and Tea before and absolutely loved their matcha, so we decided to stop by again. One thing I always take as a good sign is when there's a line outside, and this place definitely had one. Thankfully, they have a menu posted outside, which helps everyone decide before reaching the counter. The line moved surprisingly fas, it really operates like a well-oiled machine. There is seating available both indoors and outdoors, although we decided to take our order to go. Since it was after 3 p.m., I was just treating my daughter because I don't drink caffeine that late in the day. Parking in Koreatown is a nightmare, so be prepared to walk a bit if you're driving. I'm I'm After placing our order, the wait wasn't long at all. Once we got back to the car and headed to our next stop, my daughter took a sip of her matcha and immediately said it smelled awful. My sense of smell and taste isn't nearly as sensitive as hers, so I offered to try it myself. As soon as I lifted the cup to take a sip through the straw, I noticed the odor too. It was quite pungent, and after one sip, I couldn't bring myself to drink any more. Unfortunately, the drink ended up in the trash. I'm not sure if this was just a bad batch of matcha or if it hadn't been stored properly and had been exposed to air, but it was definitely disappointing. Would I come back? Yes. Every business can have an off day, especially when my daughter has enjoyed their matcha in the past. When I do I will update my review. The lesson I learned is to take a quick sip before leaving, just in case something isn't right. read more

I can see why its so highly rated! Street parking, little seating inside but decorated very well and so cute!

Will absolutely be coming back. read more

We stopped by on a Sunday morning and luckily caught it before the rush. We were actually on our way to eat at the attached restaurant but decided to get our drinks ahead of time. Luckily we did because there was a long line when we left. It's a cozy little coffee shop and space is limited inside so keep that in mind if your planning to enjoy your drinks there. They offer a variety of drink creations and also sell pastries. I tried the Lotus Einspänner and liked that it was super creamy. I would have preferred the coffee to be a bit stronger in flavor but I enjoyed the drink. There are so many unique options here, I'll definitely be back to try more. There is street parking or a paid parking garage around the corner. read more

Oooooh....both the coffee and matcha here goes down soooo smooth! Street parking only so good luck with that. I was expecting a long line but came here on a Friday afternoon and to my surprise, only about 5 people ahead of us. Line wasn't even out the door. We ordered a Lotus Einspanner and a matcha duo, both with almond milk. I got my Lotus Einspanner half sweet and it was the perfect amount of sweetness to espresso taste ratio. The matcha duo was one of the better matchas I've had in awhile. You can taste the earthy matcha flavor. Drinks took a bit long to make but I get it, this is a constantly busy spot. Unfortunately, no designated bathroom but you can use the bathroom from the Korean hot pot restaurant which is connected to Rok. I do have to say, their cup sizes are pretty small to how much you're paying per drink. It looks like maybe a 12 oz cup? Maybe even smaller than that. I usually cannot drink my coffees in one go, but I was able to EASILY finish this one. Still, glad I was able to come and try Rok's Lotus Einspanner. read more

The parking was a bit of a struggle but the drinks made this place so worth it ! The drinks here come out quickly (the service here is very efficient) without the sacrifice of taste and quality. The strawberry match duo - 10/10. The strawberry was not artificial tasting at all (it tasted fresh and REAL). The matcha was very creamy and complimented the strawberry well. I would say the stronger flavor profile in this drink was the strawberry even though the matcha was pretty strong as well. The hojicha duo - 10/10. The hojicha here has a deeper roasted nutty flavor and is very smooth. Sometimes hojicha comes out grainy but not this place. The creaminess really made this thing extra yummy. The store also has a little photo booth too which is super cute (adds aura points haha). read more

ROK's strawberry shortcake matcha was very thick and creamy. For me personally it was a little too sweet, but if you're someone who loves dessert-style matchas, you will DEFINITELY love this drink. They really nailed the "strawberry shortcake" concept because it genuinely tasted like strawberry shortcake in drink form. The matcha itself was rich and thick, and the strawberry shortcake flavor didn't completely overpower the matcha which I appreciated. Definitely make sure to mix it really well though because the strawberry puree at the bottom is VERY sweet on its own. Next time I come back I want to try the matcha einspanner so I can taste the matcha more on its own without the added sweetness. read more

I can see why people rave about Rok Coffee and Tea, it's pretty good! Street parking is available and it wasn't too busy when we came after dinner on Friday. They're known for their cream top matcha lattes, so I decided to go with the Mango Matcha Duo. The drink was delicious and I really enjoyed the mango flavor throughout the drink. I'll have to come back to try their other drinks, but it's definitely a great spot for double matcha. read more

Rok Coffee and Tea - Mango Matcha Duo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Matcha duo is SO GOOD. Best matcha drink I've had anywhere. So flavorful and creamy and smooth. One sip, and you're like ahhhh, no wonder there is a line out the door. My only complaint is that the cup is so small. A few sips and it is pretty much gone. It is a bit pricey for the size, but I guess everything is pretty pricey nowadays. Places like Rok make you feel like Starbucks is such a deal. I'd definitely come back for their matcha drinks, but line is always so long. I'd love for them to open one up in South Bay. A girl can hope! read more

I love going to Rok early on a Sunday morning -- no line, super peaceful, and there's free parking in the garage, which makes the whole experience even better. Their matcha duo is my absolute favorite. It's so creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced. The inside seating is really nice too, with a beautiful aesthetic that makes you want to linger a bit. They share restrooms with La Sung restaurant, which is good to know before you go. Such a great spot for a calm, delicious start to the day! read more

So good!!! One of the best double matchas I've ever had! I wish the drinks had been bigger because we drank them so fast. Perfect amount of sweet without overdoing it and overpowering the actual matcha. Super friendly staff and cute interior too! My friend got the black sesame latte but they ended up liking my drink (matcha duo) more so they ordered one as well. We would definitely both come back! read more

One of the best matcha and hojicha drinks I've had recently! I seriously want to drive down to SoCal just to get it again. The Hojicha Duo was amazing, and the Sparkling Yuzu Matcha was so refreshing. I used to think sparkling matcha sounded a little weird, but wow, this changed my mind completely. It was so good. Please open a location in the Bay Area! The line was really long when I went around Saturday at 12 PM, but honestly it was worth the wait. Matcha lovers need to run here! read more

My friends and I came around 11:15 AM on Sunday and there was a small line out the door but not as bad as we were expecting! We have been wanting to try Rok forever and I can definitely see the hype. We ordered the duo matcha, matcha latte, hojicha latte, and a yuzu tea. The matcha and hojicha flavors were all super strong and the drink itself was super creamy. They might have one of the best hojicha lattes I've had in a while. It has a dark roasted flavor which I love. The only drawbacks were that you can't adjust the sweetness (the drinks were super sweet at default) and the size is super small for the price. We came from OC and are spoiled with super good matcha so we probably wouldn't go out of our way to come back but it was great to try it out!

Arrived at Rok around 1 pm on a Saturday and there was a 20-25 minute wait. We ordered the strawberry matcha duo and the matcha duo. The strawberry matcha duo was a bit too sweet for me. It tasted mainly like straight strawberry with a lot of syrup. It overpowered the matcha. The matcha duo, on the other hand, tasted much better and you can taste more of the matcha flavor. The matcha flavor is there, but not super strong. The matcha duo tasted more balanced than the strawberry one. Service was excellent. The cashier was kind and bubbly. While we were waiting inside, there was a cute little Photo Booth where you can take pictures and it'll print out your photo on receipt paper! There is some seating inside but considering how popular it is, I would say it gets packed and can be difficult to find seating. There is valet parking for $2 for 90 minutes in the back. You can also try to find street parking but it's difficult since it is located in a traffic heavy area. I wouldn't say Rok is the best matcha I've ever had. There's definitely better, but it was worth a try to see what the hype is about. read more

Rok Coffee and Tea - Strawberry matcha duo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place has been on my radar for a while - each time I have been able to make it up to Ktown and decide to come here, there's always a long line!! Lines are my worst enemy ... however recently I thought I'll suck it up and bear the line since I'm not in LA very often anyways. I probably waited a total of 25-30 minutes, which isn't terrible but not something I try to do often. I got the matcha duo as it seemed like one of the popular drinks to get here, and it actually was one of the better matcha drinks I've had. The matcha cream on top was super tasty and a great balance of matcha sweetness. For $7 and for a small one size only, it's a bit pricey IMO but worth a try. They offer a variety of tea and coffee drinks here, and especially matcha paired with different fruity flavors. I definitely plan to come back to try some of their other drinks especially the hojicha duo and matcha strawberry. I also found out you can order online which I'll definitely do next time so I don't have to wait in line. read more

We visited today around 2:50 PM to get matcha and found a very long line. After waiting quite a while, we were eventually helped by a male cashier. We ordered five regular Matcha Duo drinks and one matcha with oat milk and half sugar. While preparing the cups, the cashier appeared distracted and was adding ice while looking away and talking to a barista. When we politely asked for less ice, his attitude became noticeably unfriendly and dismissive. He removed some ice from the cups and then walked away without saying anything, even though we were planning to pay with cash. No one assisted us or the customers behind us despite the long line. Eventually, another cashier came over several minutes later and informed us that cash was not accepted. Later, when our name was called, we went to pick up the drinks but found only five cups ready instead of six. When I mentioned that we ordered six drinks, the cashier said his coworker was still making the last one. However, he then brought an additional cup with ice to the barista, which made it seem like only five cups had originally been prepared. There was also confusion because the cups were not clearly labeled. We couldn't identify which drink was made with oat milk and half sugar, so we asked for help. Instead of assisting us, the cashier responded rudely and said it was written on one of the cups. When we finally found it, the cup was labeled only with "oat" and did not indicate the half sugar request. It was 3:26 PM when we finally got out of the place. Overall, the experience felt disorganized and the customer service was disappointing. We understand it was busy, but clearer communication and a more respectful attitude would have made a big difference. read more

Had to try rok a couple of times to get my full opinion on their drinks. There's always a line when I'm there but thankfully they do have online ordering options if you're not trying to wait! I've gotten the matcha duo the first time and definitely can see why people who don't enjoy too much sweetener would like how earthy their matcha duo is. The second time I wanted to try their mango matcha, which I honestly enjoyed more for the slighter sweetness that the mango puree had that balanced out the matcha in the drink. I can't say much for the strawberry matcha since a friend had gotten that one but said it was interesting, and "not like how normally strawberry puree tastes". So I definitely would have to try that with an open mind lol. But overall it's solid if you're in the area for a matcha and not into the really sweetened drinks. read more

If you are into dessert-type matcha drink, this is your spot. They have a lot of specialty drink options. Went with the blueberry shortcake matcha and mango matcha. Both are absolutely good.

Pretty crowded inside and line but fast service. Expect no seating inside and pretty tight space. Everyone seems to get the matcha. The matcha is okay, decent flavor (not super strong but not astringent/bitter, and not too sweet. The fruit jams are pretty strong and sweet so if possible reduce the sugar or else youll need the ice to melt. I also tried the dubai chewy cookies which were on the pricier side but pretty packed with a prominent pistachio flavor. The strawberry matcha had a nice strawberry tart bite but overall the matcha part of it is overpowered by the sugar. I think its a decent matcha and has more variety than stagger. read more

I came to rok matcha on a Saturday afternoon and the line was LONG. This place is super popular. I went for their signature - matcha duo. Holy moly - they were right... this is the best matcha ever. This was definitely worth the 40 min wait. It was perfectly sweet, but strong. I wish the cup was bigger!

Don't get me wrong, I love matcha and this place is definitely one of the better matcha spots around here. Tea Masters Matcha Cafe in Little Tokyo is still the GOAT when it comes to matcha though and I'd die on that hill. I love that the matcha here is strong and sweet like it's supposed to be. The drinks are actually really good and I totally get why people hype this place up. However, the 1 hour wait does not do it justice. I'm sorry man but I'd never come back here again unless the wait was less than 20 minutes. I was nearby after some networking event in Los Angeles and decided to give it a try since I was in the area. It was 2 PM and this place was still packed like sardines. Maybe I was extra annoyed because I had a little too much to drink earlier, but I seriously did not understand why there were so many college kids here getting matcha. Like do you even like matcha or are you just here because it's trendy and you want to give off the illusion that you're hot and have money? It's the same shit Erewhon is doing with the $20 smoothies, and before Erewhon it was Whole Foods too. People want the vibe and the idea of fitting in. The matcha itself is solid, but no drink is worth standing around for an hour+. read more

Rok...heard they made excellent matcha lattes and boy they did not disappoint. Mango matcha latte is what I recommend. Thick gently sweetened foam top with a rich and earthy matcha latte blending perfectly together. The mango at the bottom gave it a fresh and natural sweetness flavor to the drink. Would recommend They also have the viral Dubai chewy cookie-classic Dubai chocolate (with and without a strawberry center), black sesame (with strawberry center), and the matcha flavor (with strawberry center). I'm a sucker for them all so of course I highly recommend them all. read more
