Mission accomplished: matcha cravings satisfied!! We swung by 8 Symphony Coffee for my favorite…read morekind of happiness, ceremonial-grade matcha!! The place was buzzing, but since our order was to-go, we were in and out without much of a wait. Big shoutout to Aron for being friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Customer service like that deserves an extra sprinkle of matcha powder!!! Thank you very matcha!! Then came the first sip. Boom!!!! That ceremonial-grade matcha delivered exactly what it should: bold, earthy, nutty, and gloriously green. No weak, sad matcha pretending to be something it's not. This was the real deal!!! Overall, a great experience and definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to whenever I'm in the area. Finding legit ceremonial-grade matcha isn't always easy, but 8 Symphony Coffee understood the assignment.

Got the "MOCHA GANACHE" so id expect it to be chocolatey and rich…read more.. No.. It tasted like a watery chocolate milk with a splash of burnt coffee. Extremely disappointed as the coffees on here sound good. Wofe got the tiramisu cloud latte...and her tasted like...slightly flavored water... -_- Guess ill still have to stick to 7leaves for now... The hunt continues...

I think I've found my new favorite coffee shop for this part of town and there are a lot of great…read morecoffee shops in this area! We had a Flat White & Cortado. Both were excellent rich & creamy and served at the perfect drinking temperature. This is honestly one of the best Flat Whites I've had in years!! Will be going back soon to try some of there other drinks. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the drinks. There is also a large variety of beans available for sale. I was even able to find filters for my home pour-over setup! Its a smaller shop with a modern, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay. There is limited seating inside and a couple of benches outside. Not the kind of space where you can sit down to work or study. But perfect for visiting with friends and enjoying the wonderful drinks. Ondo is located in a busy strip mall so parking can be tough. We actually parked in the strip mall next door LOL There is also some street parking in the area.

Came back but it felt something is not the same. Just fyi, I dislike tipping culture but when you…read moreget a bag of beans and they ring you up for a drink, just make sure you calculate the tip because I forgot it included both the beans and drinks so the staff got a big tip from me. As for the drinks, the pour overs is lacking as of late. When I get pour overs I would like the staff to be attentive to my drink than being side-tracked. I'm paying almost $8.5+ for my pours mind you. I'll continue to come for the beans but I don't know about the drinks right now.

This location was on my bookmarks for a while! Finally decided to check it out today! It's located…read morein a plaza which has plenty of parking! Upon walking in I noticed the amount of tables they had! Definitely seems like a great study/hang out spot. They have a great selection of drinks and they also have some food items. They had 1 employee when we arrived & even though she was busy, she still greeted us kindly & with a smile! I tried the peel me a latte with oat milk which was so good and the foam tasted like real banana, not artificial. The only thing I wish is if it was a bit less sweet. Not sure if you can add an extra shot or less sweetness but regardless, one of the best banana lattes I've tried!

Their " pour over" is not actually a pour over. Although their menu specifically says V60 pour…read moreover, and I seen their V60 on the counter, it was not used. They used a drip machine that has "pour over features". I called this to the barista's attention but she said they use their pour over machine for their pour overs... They should probably update their menu. Other than that I like buying their beans and my fiancé likes their latte's.

Came through with a squad of 10 on a serious mission: ceremonial-grade matcha or nothing!!! Meccha…read moreMatcha handled the chaos like pros, order in, vibes out, all drinks ready in about 12 minutes which was pretty fast for that size order. The matcha was legit!!! That deep ceremonial green that looks like it has its life together. Taste hits earthy, a little nutty, with just enough sweetness to remind you it's not chewing on grass for fun!!! No, sir!!! Best part is you get to play matcha DJ, pick your strength and sweetness level. I went bold with strong matcha and just 30% sweetness because I like my caffeine to mean it!!! If you're trying to level up your matcha game, this spot's definitely doing it right!! Check em out!!!

Love this place! Meccha matcha is the best match in the area. You can order in person or at a…read morekiosk. The inside is a good spot to hang out with 1-2 friends. There's one table for 4-5! I have had their matcha soft serve, blended matcha, hojicha strawberry, and other drinks are so fun and they usually have new drinks to try vs everyone else with just matcha latte or strawberry latte. They also have espresso drinks, yuzu, banana topping, hojicha, and non caffeinated drinks. They used to have the best shaved ice too but I didn't see it on the menu this time.

Wow wow wow! This was definitely worth the drive…read more Of course I tried their famous dirty nutty latte. This is chefs kiss! The flavors after you mix the latte are soo yummy! I also tried their macchiato cloud which was also amazing. Service was quick and friendly. Parking: parking lot located within the shopping center.

Although they really pack the drinks with ice especially for the Biscoff. Service was normal, nothing really to rave about. Basic customer service so it's still good lol. Used to come here all the time to study or do meet ups back in school. The place is a good setting for that with many tables and not too noisy.

Location is close to 99 ranch market. It's in the plaza right before Ranch 99. I ordered a…read morestrawberry Matcha with half of the sweetener and with oat milk for a grand total of eight dollars. This place also has pastries, coffee,and also sells gelato Ice-cream. I had been here before with the girl and couldn't recall if I liked this place. The drink was good. I always feel like I'm having a strawberry nest quick when I have this drink that's why I don't like it too sweet. I will admit it's not as good as the one solid coffee roasters makes, but it's close. I'll come back. I'll try the coffee next time.

We were looking for afternoon coffee and came across this cafe…read more The menu looked amazing and we could not decide what we wanted to order. So we decided to go with Calamansi cooler and the Ube milk tea with oatmilk for the drink. They were delicious. We also ordered the Leche flan ube cheesecake and it was teally good. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. The decor is pretty. Pretty good space and seating. I think the price is fair as well. We will need to try other drinks and baked goods next time. Actually have to try their coffee or maybe the Milo milk tea. Very impressed with this cafe.

This is one week old review. It was on our list to try since I love halo halo. This place…read moreactually deserve 3.5 stars but since overall experience is positive, it round up to 4. The place is small but cozy and they have a giant couch in the middle for lounging. The price is high compare to other places, with the exception of their daily special tea. Their tea is actually cheap. I love love the jasmine calamonsi tea, so refreshing for $3. The halo halo was overwhelmed with ice cream, need more of other ingredients. The monster oreo shake was delicious but it is not worth it for that price. The ube flan cupcake was just ube cupcake and flan stack on top. It kinds of lacking the cohesiveness. Overall, I would come back just for that tea.

This was my first time visiting Bakers & Baristas but not my first time trying there macaroons…read more My daughter has been treating me to macaroons on special occasions and I absolutely love them! I can't have them from anywhere else because these hit the spot so hard that no one can compete. I personally have not tried anything else, but my kids have enjoyed other treats from this place. They are located in Cerritos at a very busy shopping plaza and there's plenty of parking. I didn't expect the bakery to be an actual restaurant. There was a good crowd, sitting at tables and eating and drinking. They have about a dozen different flavors of macaroons. You can't go wrong with any of them, but my top favorite are the Birthday, Fruity Pebble, Horchata, Cappuccino and Ferrero Rocher. They make nice gifts too, as they can put it in a treat box in an ice brown paper bag. I definitely need to come back and try their drinks and something else from their menu.

I've been here before and honestly wasn't a fan of their breakfast. Their drinks were decent…read morethough, and after eating teriyaki in Gardena, I was craving something sweet, so we decided to stop here again. I ordered a hot salted caramel latte. They charge an extra dollar to substitute oat milk, so I kept the regular milk. My son got the cappuccino cake, and I chose the ricotta pistachio cake. The pistachio cake was a little dry -- not terrible, but noticeable. However, my hot salted caramel latte was actually very good and paired really well with the dessert. The music and atmosphere were nice, and there were only a few patrons inside, which made it feel relaxed. However, there were a couple of dirty plates left sitting on tables while one employee seemed more focused on organizing napkins instead of clearing them. I also wasn't too sure how fresh the cakes were since they had been sitting in the display. Whether I come back really depends on the flavor and quality of the food and drinks next time around.
