    Before, "PERFECTION"
    June V.

    Very friendly group working here. I truly appreciate thee attention to detail. I began REALLY not wanting to be wasteful with tossing ANY disposable cup(s) as I have a "Method" to my Quad espresso DrankY Drank ;p With that being said, the "For here" cup is AMAZING. One of the associates recommended this after I shared my waste concern. I then purchased a personal reusable cold cup to fill with ice to then..... pour my perfectly SUGARED shots over. Super simple, you're thinking........ NOPE... so many StarBeeZ get this wrong and it has become my Achilles heel, SADLY........ This location is nicely tucked in a corner within a shopping center. Parking is not bad and there is NO Drive through so you don't have to worry about that horrible drive through traffic. This is definitely a Starbucks that I appreciate for what I need. GREAT customer service, Coffee my way and Quick and easy. I highly recommend stopping by.

    matcha latte with oatmilk, tastes almost like hojicha with the add ons

    this is my second time at this starbucks and you can tell they get busy in the mornings and their mobiles stack up. they hold it down tho. Very smooth store layout for cafe and mobile drinks, friendly staff and good seating inside the lobby, which was very cleani ordered a tall matcha latte and the baristas made it perfectly. i didn't catch the name of the barista who made it but 11/10 very fast service thank you guys. PS TO OTHER CUSTOMERS: BE PATIENT WITH YOUR BARISTAS AT STARBUCKS, YOURE NOT THE ONLY ONE ORDERING!

    Burnt. I waited an additional 10 mins for my mobile order. Also, they took time to greet "regulars" by a hug which delayed my order even more than the quoted

    It's crazy to me that she pays so much money for coffee and almost every Starbucks I go to the bathrooms are terrible!! I Love your coffee/ and Drinkd but, most of the bathrooms I have ever gone in into a Starbucks are very nasty I know the goal is to sell the coffee but, for customers they should be able to go to the restaurant if they're inside the facility. So I think all Starbucks pay more attention to the restrooms every last one I have gone to have actually been were worse than this one!!!

I did think it was a bit odd that my iced drink was served in a paper cup while my friend got the usual plastic cup. The croissant was delicious. It had a nice guava filling, but the cream cheese was thinner, more like a condensed milk consistency. Still very good, just different from what I was expecting. My friend got the iced cheese coffee with biscoff, which was pretty strong and tasty. The restroom was not terrible, but could have been cleaner.

    Great Demand, But Poor Convenience for Working Customers…read more I've had The Nook's mushroom coffee before. My best friend took me here on a weekend afternoon, and even then there was a line, although it was manageable and mostly stayed inside the shop. Because of that experience, I knew The Nook was popular, but I wasn't prepared for what I encountered on a weekday morning. I wanted to pick up a coffee before work, so I actually planned ahead. Before leaving home, I checked the mobile website expecting that, given the obvious demand, there might be an order-ahead option. Unfortunately, there isn't one. So I gave myself an additional 30 minutes specifically for parking, waiting in line, ordering, and waiting for the drink to be prepared. I figured that should be more than enough for a morning coffee pickup. I arrived around 7:30 AM, and as I walked toward The Nook from the south side of The Enclave, I could already see the line stretching out of the door and into the courtyard. I was honestly shocked. There were easily 15-20 people ahead of me. I decided to give it a fair chance and got in line. After 10 minutes, the line had barely moved. At that point, I walked out. I understand that popular businesses get busy, especially in the morning. But there is a difference between being busy and having a customer wait in a line of 15-20 people with virtually no movement at 7:30 AM, particularly when there is no mobile ordering or order-ahead option. For a coffee shop with this level of demand, I find the lack of an ordering system especially frustrating. If you're going to consistently have lines extending outside the business during the morning rush, there should be some way for customers who are trying to grab a drink on their way to work to order ahead. And that's really my issue: the customer experience doesn't seem designed for people who need coffee efficiently. If you're coming here on a weekend, have nowhere to be, or are willing to dedicate an unpredictable amount of time to waiting, you may have a completely different experience. But if you're trying to get coffee before work, I would strongly recommend accounting for significantly more time than you think you'll need -- or having a backup plan. I no longer work as close to The Nook, and I don't drink coffee after noon, so I don't have much reason to make a special trip. Unless I'm conveniently nearby and see little to no line, I won't be making another attempt anytime soon. The Nook clearly has a loyal following, but popularity shouldn't come at the expense of basic convenience. If the demand is consistently this high, the ordering process needs to catch up with it.

Very welcoming and easy to talk to! Vibes: chill, funky, casual spot to just vibe at. I believe there is a hangout spot in the back of the store, but I didn't have the chance to check it out-- I'll have to check it out next time. Drink: That peach cobbler matcha was absolutely delicious. I downed it so fast because it was so good! It legitimately tasted like there was a peach cobbler in my matcha. So good. Not too sweet, just the right amount of cinnamon, and the peach worked well with the matcha. I appreciate good food and drinks, but even more than that I appreciate excellent service and a hospitable host. Good Coffee has both of these things which is why I highly recommend it and will definitely be back for that peach cobbler matcha!

This place is a total gem, and if you haven't been yet, you are seriously missing out! Let me tell you about the star of my visit, the Matcha Cream Filled Croissant. Oh. My. Goodness. This thing is on another level. The croissant itself is buttery, perfectly golden, and incredibly flaky -- with just the right amount of crisp on the outside. But the matcha cream filling? Silky smooth, lusciously rich, with a beautiful earthy matcha flavor that isn't overpowering or too sweet. It's the kind of bite that makes you stop mid-chew just to appreciate how good it is. I honestly could eat three of these in a sitting. The Korean-American fusion approach to their baked goods is inspired and completely unique, you won't find anything like it anywhere else in the South Bay or in Gardena. Seriously Impressive, I paired my croissant with their Iced Matcha Latte, made with premium grade matcha sourced from Jeju Island, and WOW, this drink is stunning. It's vibrant, beautifully layered, and tastes as amazing as it looks. The matcha is bold and authentic without being bitter, perfectly balanced with creamy, cold milk. Not too sweet, not too earthy -- just absolutely perfect. It's easily one of the best iced matcha drinks I've had in a while. You can customize your milk choice too, which is a great thoughtful touch. This place is warm & welcoming: The staff here is attentive, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and made to feel at home. The baristas are well-trained and knowledgeable, they took their time explaining the menu and made sure my order was exactly right. No rushing, no attitude, just genuine hospitality that keeps you coming back. Decor is absolutely Charming. The interior of Smoking Tiger is adorable and so well thought out. It's modern, clean, and stylish with a cozy Korean café aesthetic that feels fresh without trying too hard. The lighting is warm and inviting, the seating is comfortable, and the whole vibe just makes you want to stay for hours. There's both indoor and outdoor seating available, which is a great bonus. Whether you're catching up with a friend, working on your laptop, or just treating yourself to something special, this place sets the perfect mood. One thing that really stood out to me was how immaculately clean this café is. The tables, counters, floors, and display cases were all sparkling, it's clear that the team takes real pride in maintaining a clean and comfortable environment for every guest. A clean café is a happy café, and this one passes with flying colors. Bottom Line, Smoking Tiger Coffee & Bread is the real deal. Creative, high-quality food, exceptional drinks, warm service, gorgeous decor, and a spotless space, this place checks every single box. The Matcha Cream Filled Croissant and Iced Matcha Latte alone are worth the trip. Do yourself a favor and go try yourself. Miguel C.

Since my first visit, there's been many competitors opening around Gardena, but I find myself drawn back to this place because of the balance of spaciousness (there's actually places to sit whenever I go!), quality of products (the espresso shot is pretty strong and they have many beans to choose from), and best of all, price of their drinks (specifically the specialties). While I wouldn't say the prices are a bargain, it feels more reasonable than other local competitors. One thing I do miss is that 2 years ago, the pastries weren't individually wrapped. We used to have the option of selecting pastries with tongs, the typical experience you'd get when going to a bakery in Japan. Hopefully they would bring that experience back again! Until then, I'll keep returning for their quality drinks!
