I've tried their banana matcha (top tier), strawberry matcha (has real strawberry bits ), coconut matcha, ube matcha (seasonal), biscoff latte (off menu). All so very good! They also have many pastry options to complement your drink. All the workers are nice and are always hustlin to get the drinks out with a quickness since the line tends to be long during peak hours. Unfortunately no online ordering still due to said long line. Aesthetically pleasing and love their music choices. A definite must in Torrance!

The place is ever so cute. It is spotless. The service is great. Even the robot is adorable. We love their Mango mango and all of their lattes are great. Their espresso is perfect. I wish it was open a bit later. We often end up there near closing. But it is one of our favorite coffee shops in the South Bay. It is fun, the prices are fair and again, they have a robot. They close at 6 pm so get there. Please stay open until 7, we will come. The attention to detail in every cup is consistent and amazing. You will love it.

The pastries are decent too. They are able to warm them. Theyre usually not busy when I come so they tend to make the drinks fast. There's some tables you can hang out and work too as there is also wifi. Not a ton of sitting room but very good vibes. Parking can be tight as there's only a tiny lot but near a dry cleaners, subway and a couple other shops.

I got there close to 6pm and everyone was so nice. The lady that took my order was friendly and welcoming. I got their Mango Sticky Matcha. It was pretty interesting. Loved that it has a rich matcha flavor and mango sticky flavor didn't overpower the drink. If anything, it complimented well with the matcha. I love it and would absolutely order it again. Unfortunately, they didn't have any pastries left other than a couple bagels. I wanted to try their croissants but maybe next time when I'm in the area again. The place is super clean and organized. They have a wifi, an outlet, a couple tables for single or multiple customers as well as comfy couches. The restroom was also clean and smells great. Highly recommend this place. Not only was I able to complete so many tasks but was also able to just relax. Loved the vibe here!

Can really feel the passion that went into creating this place. Amazing drinks, fantastic people great vibe.

I don't like sugary drinks, so the friendly crew member recommended replacing their usual sweetened tonic water with unsweetened, and reducing the yuzu to 75%. He said the yuzu flavoring is sweet too, but reducing it lessens the flavor as well as the sweetness. He mentioned they could add more yuzu later if I wanted. I appreciate the options presented clearly with the flexibility built in. And the original 75% recommendation turned out to be the perfect balance! The private shared parking lot had multiple empty spaces on a Wednesday afternoon. There is some seating but not a lot, and I was getting it to go anyway. While I stood around for my order, it looked like a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. My drink came out very quickly and I was on my way. I plan to be back!

Mai coffee is the place to go if you want a good strong drink! Their croissants were also delicious and flaky. We even got to try their teas and those were delicious on the hot day we went. They have lots of seats and there's lots of parking as well, so it shouldn't be an issue.

I came on a weekday afternoon so there wasn't any line but there were plenty of people sipping on their lattes inside and hanging out. I ordered the Vienna Matcha since it is their most popular item and I'm not from here so I wanted to try what they're most known for. The latte was so good! Not that sweet until you mixed the foam and even then it wasn't overly sweet. It was just right. The girl helping me seemed very sweet and kind and ready to answer any questions I had. Since I was on the road I wanted to also try one of their pastries so I got the mushroom croissant with cheese and that tasted so good especially warmed up. It was like having a mini pizza. I'm glad I got to try this spot!
