    Iced Matcha and Breakfast Bagel
    Jack M.

    This is a great family run cafe in the Regus Office Building in Serra Mesa. I stopped in for breakfast and had a ceremonial grade matcha latte and a plain bagel sausage and egg breakfast sandwich, both came to $13 and some change. First of all, the matcha latte was terrific. It was well made with quality oat milk. It was smooth and rich with great matcha flavor. I asked for a little bit of honey as the only sweetener. I do recommend it. The sausage and egg breakfast bagel was great, too. The egg portion was well seasoned and tasted great. The eggs were nice and fluffy. The breakfast sausage was good and so was the quality of the bagel. The service was very good. The employees and owners were very upbeat and friendly. There's plenty of inside and outside seating as well. The place in not difficult to locate. As you pull up on Granite Ridge Dive, take the first left, you should see a "Sea Ridge Cafe" sign, park between the two large buildings that are facing the east, south east, and walk in between those two buildings and you will run right into the cafe. Enjoy!

    Sea Ridge Cafe is a family-run operation doing business at a Serra Mesa office complex. It was very difficult to find where the cafe was located within the cluster of buildings. Only a sidewalk sign placed adjacent to a parking lot gave an indication that I was on the right trail. After getting out of my vehicle and walking around randomly, I finally came across an entrance to the correct address where Sea Ridge Cafe was based. I must have approached from the back side as I had to walk through a conference room before arriving. The dining area was made up of a combination of small tables and sofas. You could also eat/drink outside at a central patio between a few of the buildings. Coffee, tea, and smoothies were the beverage offerings. Breakfast sandwiches, bagels, pastries, burritos, and signature sandwiches made up the food choices. I chose an item from the last category which was a Rosemary Ham & Turkey on an Italian roll. Besides the two deli meats, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, mayo, and stone-ground mustard were the ingredients. The size of the sandwich resembled what you can purchase at the deli section of a local supermarket. It wasn't quite 12 inches in length, however it was thicker because of the bread shape. A few more slices of ham and turkey would have made the product a better value for the price. The service was very friendly from the staff as they were wrapping up near closing time. I gave a four star rating for my takeout order from Sea Ridge Cafe.

    This coffee shop is absolutely amazing!!! My girls and I went right after our bachelorette party and we all got breakfast and coffee. The staff is super friendly and so are the owners. I had the best latte of my entire life which was the strawberry mocha latte! We also had amazing food, including the breakfast burrito and avocado toast! I so wish it was closer to me but we are in LA! We will definitely be back next time we are in San Diego.

    Tried Sea Ridge as it's just up the street from where I live. Lived the clean look and the friendly staff. I ordered an ice hazelnut ice coffee with Oat Milk and it was delicious. Really enjoyed it and will be back to try their sandwiches next.

    Iced Latte

    This was surprisingly the best latte I've had...ever! This latte was just the right amount of everything and it couldn't have been more perfect. They use local coffee beans and ingredients which most likely why this was the best latte I've ever had. I wish I was hungry, so I could get the delicious burritos and sandwiches they had. The service couldn't have been anymore perfect! They were so nice to help me find the perfect coffee for me, and whipped up my latte quickly. This cafe is the best and I will 1000 percent comeback to grab another coffee and try the food!

The standout was definitely the mango sticky rice ice cream, it was creamy and delicious. The sticky rice was a good mix of salty and sweet. Mangoes weren't quite in season yet when I visited, so my mango was a little sour, but I liked how they used fresh ones! The interior is so cute and of course mango themed. The wait wasn't too long, but they do warn you that it will take longer if you get the shaved ice since they make it to order. Overall this is a great spot to take any mango lover!

Don't let parking deter you away, it is absolutely worth it! We ordered the Rose Lychee Kakigori and Mango Sago. While kakigori may have a little bit of a wait for it to be prepared, very much so worth it. Both desserts are huge, very shareable and the perfect dessert for a warm summer day. The perfect amount of tapioca in the Mango sago and a variety of fresh cut mango, mango pudding and mango ice cream to enjoy! The rose lychee kakigori looks like a huge snow pile but hiding under the delicious snow is an abundance of lychee fruit and jellies to enjoy. Getting a spot for a large group can be tricky but definitely add this to your just try dessert list!

A lot of little knick knacks for sale. Seating is open space with a large table. They offer 3 different sizes and a lot of base options like the obvious acai and pitaya with less common options like matcha or chia pudding or greek yogurt. Fruit and granola toppings are unlimited and there are a lot of options! I got the pitaya with vanilla granola almond topping and banana, mango, and pineapple. First off, my bowl was loaded with toppings and there was no empty spaces in the base. The pitaya was tart and sweet but slightly icy. The granola was not too sweet and had a great crunch. All of the fruit were fresh and sweet. Definitely will be coming back to try other bases and topping combinations!

R3FRESH Juice Bar + Superfood absolutely nailed it--and then some. We stopped in for a basic bowl (sometimes simple is best), and wow... delicious doesn't even begin to cover it. Perfectly blended, beautifully topped, and every bite was pure refreshment. You can taste the quality in every spoonful. But what really made our visit special was Ashlyn. She greeted us with the warmest smile, took genuine interest in what we were craving, and crafted our bowls with such care and attention--you could literally feel the love she put into it. She made my son feel like the most important customer in the place, and that kind of service is rare these days. Oh, and we can't forget to mention their gorgeous "Instagrammable" wall! We had so much fun snapping photos with our colorful bowls against the vibrant backdrop. It's clear they've thought of everything--amazing food, incredible service, AND a space that just makes you happy to be there. Whether you're a fellow acai addict, looking for your next profile pic backdrop, or just need a healthy, feel-good treat, this is your spot. Already planning our next visit!

The vibes here are immaculate, the interior is absolutely beautiful, and the hospitality is top-tier. I ordered the Tiramisu Matcha at 75% sweetness, and it was perfection. It hits that absolute sweet spot perfectly sweet without being overpowering and you can tell the matcha they use is incredibly fresh and high-quality. Beyond the amazing drinks, what really stole my heart is how genuinely pet-friendly this place is. The owner absolutely loves dogs! The staff is so sweet and welcoming, and they even take photos of your pups to put up on their wall. It was the perfect, low-stress environment to bring my rescue Lab. They are also incredibly community-oriented and are hosting a pet adoption event here very soon! Make sure to follow their Instagram so you don't miss it. The staff is so genuine, the environment is wonderful, and the matcha is stellar. I'm definitely bringing my cousin along next time. Highly, highly recommend checking this spot out!

The parking situation was less than optimal which meant that drawing customers to this business during peak meal hours has become difficult. They are also not open on Monday and Tuesday which puts them at more of a disadvantage versus the competitors in the Convoy District. The emphasis on using fresh fruits to make their products seems to have lessened over time. For example, they used to have a basket at the service counter displaying various fruits, but I didn't see that anymore. Two self-service tablets were available to place an order. The menu screen hung above the one at the counter. I chose one of my go-to drinks which was a Mango Green Tea with less ice and boba pearls added. There was no available inside seating so I stood around and waited for my item which was rapidly prepared. The $6.99 cost for a 20 oz cup was on par with the local market prices. The fruitiness of the mango was prominent, however I felt the pearls were a bit undercooked and chewy. For my latest visit to DaYung's Tea, I gave the experience a three star rating.
