    Terrible service and most workers had an aggressive and unwelcoming tone. Lack of flavor for my iced coffee. Too much ice to add on. Not going back honestly.

    I stopped by earlier to grab a quick treat, the service was incredibly friendly! Also, the store itself is spacious and clean, looks like a great study spot. The drink was superb! Definitely will be coming back to this location if I'm ever in the area.

This looks like a wish list for most employers. How do these words/qualities/ compliments relate to a Starbucks store on Michelson Dr, Irvine 24 miles from our Marriott hotel on Park Lantern in Dana Point, Ca? These partially describe Aaron and Wyatt, 2 stellar young gentlemen and Starbucks employees who made us quickly forget about our experience at Reborn Coffee in Corona Del Mar. This is one of the busiest Starbucks I have been to in the US. They have a heavy mobile order volume and they are also slammed with the pre workday walk ins. I got to pick up 5 dark roast coffees plus an Americano; steamed whole milk and a variety of sweeteners on the side plus trays 5 days in a row for our racquetball team playing at an outdoor tournament in Huntington Beach. Aaron and Wyatt did a bang up job of not only ensuring that the entire coffee order was accurate but hot, well packed, complete and travel ready. They remembered to include the steamed milk in a cup plus extra sweeteners on the side every time. This was in the midst of catering to other mobile and in house orders and customers walking up and requesting changes or complaining. Aaron was also simultaneously helping and training a new employee Brie while doing all of the above. Yup this is Starbucks! Hats off to you Aaron and Wyatt. This store is located in the Park Place shopping center with a Mother's Market and kitchen and right across from the LA Fitness.

    Never expect a full cup of this insanely expensive coffee. I have placed so many orders, and am disappointed every single time. If you order anything from this store that has whipped cream, just know you will only be getting half of cup of coffee and the other half whip cream. This picture was taken after I picked up my mobile order. My cup felt extremely light. I popped off the lid and it was full of whip cream. I stirred it so that the whip cream melted and I was finally able to see the little bit of coffee I paid for, $5.75 for this. I will not be spending another dollar for this over priced coffee.

    Great location, right across from the Park Place in Irvine. Ordering was quick and easy. Fast service and accurate drinks. Baristas there are very friendly and gladly made another cups of ice water while serving. Outside patio is very cozy and it's nice place to hang out and wait until your restaurant reservation nearby. It was a rainy day, the store made sure Wet Floor Caution signs were displayed for the customers but forgot putting the umbrellas up.

    Evenings are a crapshoot, especially since it's situated next to Ruth Chris and North Italia and the parking fills up around it.

Parking, however, due to the other popular neighboring restaurants can pose a challenge. There was a line forming, but it goes by quickly and the drinks seem prebatched to save time. Even if that was the case, their drinks are amazing. My recommendations are their Double Matcha, Matcha Einspanner, and their Pandan Coffee. All are excellent choices and the sweetness level is a good ratio for me. I kept my matcha at a regular sweetness and it was perfect. Any less, the bitter taste may be too strong for me, so I enjoyed it. The service was fast, and the matcha was definitely up to my standard. I would highly recommend Airoma for your matcha and coffee fix!

I came on a Monday around 11AM, and it was decently crowded, which surprised me, so I had high hopes. However, the line was short, so I didn't have to wait long. The cashier who took my order was very friendly and efficient. I got a Matcha Pandan (75% sweet). I waited around 5 mins before I received my drink. Honestly, I would give the drink 3.5 stars. What I really liked was that I could taste the pandan! I also thought 75% sweetness was perfect for me. The size of the drink was also generous for the price as I'm used to smaller sizes at other matcha cafes for the same price. However, I didn't really taste the matcha which was odd because before mixing my drink fully, I took a quick sip and definitely tasted matcha. Once I did mix it though, the matcha flavor was gone, and I mainly just tasted pandan. Overall, mainly giving Airoma 4 stars for the service and efficiency! My drink was good, but not mind-blowing. Maybe their other drinks like their coffee are better, so I'd try them again if I'm in the area.

I loved the large painting on the wall depicting the rugged old west with a cow boy having a cup of coffee by the fire in the mountains. They have Different types of seating arrangements. The interior is modern with a comfortable lighting scene and wrap around floor to ceiling windows. They also have a large patio with more seating. I also noticed a fire place and a Television outside. Aside from their great coffee and Tea menu, they offer daily pastries, refreshments, small bites and coffee bean bags to go. I had the Horchata Latté with oat milk (available hot or cold). It was really good. It is made with 2 shots of their signature espresso with a house-made horchata syrup or base, steamed or iced milk, and a dusting of cinnamon. You could taste the quality of the coffee. It was really good. The coffee was a little strong. The service was great and prices are average. I really enjoyed hanging out in their shop with friends. They have several locations. I highly recommend Moon Goat Coffee Roasters.

    Found CASSEL EARTH COFFEE on Yelp and was curious to try it because of all their reviews and menu…read moreoptions. However, I was skeptical because it's located in a big office building, but I was so pleasantly surprised. I ordered an iced decaf banana latte, which is the drink that drew me to this place, and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely my favorite iced banana latte! I love that they truly care about their craft. I initially ordered my drink with almond milk, but the barista highly recommended oat milk, as it would go better with my drink. She also showed me the best way to enjoy the coffee -- sip first before mixing. I'm in Irvine once a week, and more often than not, I'm grabbing a coffee from here on my way home. My go-to is the banana latte, but I decided to venture out and try their coconut latte recently and let me tell you... I might love that just as much, if not more, than my banana latte. My drinks here are always consistent -- delicious every time. The coffee is never overpowered by the flavor or milk. This makes me comfortable to try other drinks on their menu next time. Not only is the coffee shop great, but so is the building it is located in. The shop is found on the ground floor, straight ahead as you enter. The building offers so many seating areas and has such great lighting. If I lived closer, this would definitely be my go-to place to get some work or reading done. Parking has never been an issue for me, and they do offer validation that is good for 1 hour, I believe. Overall, no notes for Cassel. I absolutely love this place and will recommend them to anyone and everyone!

The line was wrong but it moved quickly. I went with the pistachio oat milk latte and a ham and cheese croissant. The latte was delicious, sweet but not too sweet and the pistachio flavor was nice, not artificial at all. The croissant was also delicious, very flaky. Highly recommend you add this spot to your OC coffee collection!

Parking is plentiful, however, the plaza can get busy during working/business hours due to the surrounding corporations..so heads up! The staff is super welcoming & friendly. They are efficient & the lines move quickly. The decor is uber modern and ambience is nice & chill. They are known for their quality baked goods. I especially love their cookies & Portuguese egg tarts. The creamy custard center and crispy flakey pastry & carmelized top is absolutely PERFECTION! My fav/go-to cookie is the chocolate walnut. RxFoodie tip! Ask for it warmed up ~ it's yummy, crispy on the outside & perfectly gooey inside. It's baked w/ imported Belgian chocolate, which makes it so decadent and paired perfectly w/ the pecans & walnut bits. It's heavenly. I haven't tried their drinks or other specialty desserts yet, but it's tempting..maybe next time. A solid bakery to try & high recommend!!!
