I got the ube latte with coconut milk again without the strawberry, and it kind of tastes better this way. The employees this time were better about honoring my request for less ice. It is hot, and not too busy, but most indoor seats are taken on a Tuesday afternoon. I'd still say this café has a great atmosphere indoors.

Went on Labor Day night and there was a LONG line with the T-mobile deal going on. We waited about…read more50 minutes but it moved pretty steadily. They rotate their flavors! The 2 girls working the front were super sweet and gave free samples. I ended up getting the Sharkleberry Fin Gelati. It was the perfect fruity and sweetness without being overwhelmingly sugary. My partner got the Cola Gelati, which tasted like cola but in a lighter, more refreshing way. They offer sugar-free options! I sampled the Sugar-Free Mango Peach, but unfortunately, the flavor was a bit lacking for me. Easy parking lot with plenty of space. Small seating area both inside and outside, but most people seemed to be grabbing their treats to-go.

We didn't want to pass up a freebie, so we stopped by on a Wednesday night before closing and were…read moresurprised to see a line! They did a good job keeping things moving, even with people stopping to sample different flavors. I got the Vanilla + Chocolate Twist frozen custard, which was super thick and creamy. My boyfriend got the Cookies N' Cream gelati with vanilla frozen custard on top. Both were solid choices, and we really enjoyed our desserts! The interior was clean and had a good amount of seating, although it seemed like most people were grabbing their desserts to go. I noticed more people enjoying their treats outside instead. The plaza was also pretty spacious, so we had no trouble finding a parking spot.

My family and I first discovered this place in Artesia after having some Filipino food and wanted to try halo halo from a near by Cafe 86, as theirs looked better than the restaurant we were at... this Placentia location is just as good and is much closer to home. Looking forward to many halo halos and trying their baked goods.

I tried the Strawberry Colada and the Caramel Cream, and both drinks were really good! The Strawberry Colada was refreshing and had a nice fruity flavor, while the Caramel Cream was sweet, creamy, and delicious. Both drinks were made well and had great flavor without being disappointing. Overall, I'm really happy with my visit. Between the friendly service, clean shop, and tasty drinks, this is definitely a place I would come back to. I'd recommend giving it a try if you're looking for a good boba or specialty drink!

Service was quick but it didn't seem like the barista/cashier was very knowledgeable about what was in each drink/how the drinks were made when I asked her questions. *** crème brûlée coffee 10/10 A good amount of indoor seating and a few outdoor tables. They have a fun little FREE PHOTOBOOTH where every customer can place their photo on the wall - this made the experience more fun, memorable, and unique! This spot is located in downtown brea so parking isn't the easiest here - I usually recommend everyone to just park in the parking structure.

The bathroom was nice and clean as well. We got the chubby cheesecake, sweet corn latte, and berries n cream matcha. Our cashier was very sweet and helpful with understanding the menu options. The cheesecake was SO delicious with fluffy cream on top and honey on the bottom. The corn latte is so yummy, such a nice light corn flavor! The berry matcha has a strong flavor and the fresh, sweet berries in it perfectly complement the matcha bitterness. The foam on the top is not too heavy either. Can't wait to come back when i'm in the area!

Long-time customer, first-time reviewer…read more Smoking Tiger has one of my favorite pastries around - the Garlic Cream Cheese bread. Honestly, it's the main reason I keep coming back. The bread is soft, the garlic flavor is just right, and the cream cheese filling brings everything together perfectly. Their coffee drinks are also consistently good. My personal favorite is the Smokin' Spaniard, probably because I'm a sucker for anything made with condensed milk. It's rich, smooth, and just sweet enough without being over the top. On a recent visit, I decided to try their new Pineapple Express. It was a hot day, and I was in the mood for something fruity and refreshing without any caffeine. It was decent - light and refreshing, though it didn't quite stand out as much as their coffee drinks for me. Overall, this is still one of my favorite bakeries and coffee spots. Between the delicious pastries, solid drinks, and cozy atmosphere, it's a place I find myself returning to again and again.

Right after we visited salt room, i took my daughters and visited for lunch pick up. Unfortunately everything was ruined when the employee girl assisted with my order. Not sure if she was having a bad day , but from the start she had this bad attitude and energy towards me. I told her i wanted 3 empanadas and order acai bowls and her vibe was very negative with unpleasant tone. I could tell right away she didnt want to work and didnt want to help me. I gave her 3 orders of empanadas and asked her to give me 2 medium acai bowls. Gave her clear instructions what to have for 1st bowl and 2nd bowl, which she did but seemed frustrated? It was our first time here and i was asking her few questions and she was clearly annoyed also. Once we got to the step to put some different syrup drizzle for both cups, she mixed it up and made a mistake. I clarified again i wanted honey drizzle on mango and almond butter on acai, and she asked me with a attitude "so you dont want these bowls?" It almost felt like i wasted her time and work! Her attitude was the worst ive seen this year at any restaurant. I said yes because my girls dont eat peanut butter and we just want the right order, i wasnt upset rather confused. Once I asked her to remake the right order, her face turned dark and she was clearly upset. At the end she brought the cups, did not even apologize, gave me all the attitude, and gave me the bags and did not say anything... no thank you for coming, NO sorry there was a mistake, nothing. I felt really bad for the owner of this place because store seems to be new and running well but has a cancer in their store. The restaurant can have best price, best quality, best presentation but if you have horrible customer service oriented staff, they will run out of business. As a small business owner myself, I hope the owner(s) read this message Please retrain your staff and if they cannot embrace basic customer service skills, they shouldn't be working for you They will drive your store to ZERO In case if the owners are curious, the girl who assisted us had tattoos in her both arms. I didnt see any name tags, she had dark skin, maybe Asian, but had tattoos on her arms. Unfortunately this will be the first and last time coming. I hope all customers are ready to have unpleasant experience with the staff.

There is a lot of seating both indoors and outdoors. Parking can be a little tricky during peak times. The staff were all very friendly and attentive, making sure we had what we needed and receiving our refills. Ordered the following: - Avocado Benedict - Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich - House French Toast (Deep-Fried Toast, mixed Berries, Maple Syrup, Condensed Milk) - Mango Iced Green Tea - Potted Plant Latte All the food that we ordered was amazing and delicious. I especially liked the Avocado Benedict, there was a savory and creamy taste to it. The House French Toast was a great addition for dessert; the toast had a crispy texture while the inside was soft. The Manga Iced Green Tea was refreshing but if you wanted something interesting but also a latte then the potted plant is a good choice! Overall, it is such a nice brunch spot to go to with many different choices. I definitely want to come back to try their other items.

It is slightly on the pricier side at around $18+ per plate, but the portions definitely make up for it. The staff are always super nice and welcoming, especially the older gentleman who is always so friendly. The ambiance is nice with both indoor and outdoor seating, although there's more space outside. Inside is cozy and enjoyable when it's not too crowded. My favorites are the salmon Benedict and egg coffee! Highly recommend both. Parking in the plaza is pretty tight, so I'd recommend coming earlier for a better spot or parking across at the plaza with Snail's Pace and walking over. Weekdays are great, but expect it to be very crowded on weekends.
