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!

And the matchas already come with oat milk so you don't have to pay $1 for milk alternative unlike most places. I love their blueberry matcha, less sweet and their banana coffee. I always make it a must go spot whenever I'm in OC and will happily stand in line for it. Seating wise there are a few tables and chairs but not the best place to study imo since it's quite loud.

The shop is set up counter style with the door with a straight path past the counter into the restrooms. The have wifi which is voucher based and good for four hours. Whilst I was there they were having a promo buy one get one on their harumi matcha latte. I indulged, purchasing a strawberry and mango under the offer. The matcha is slightly bitter and slightly sweet. The cream(?) liquid they use helps with the silkiness of the beverage which is generally smooth in the first place (likely sifting any chunks of matcha). The fruit base isn't overpowering and helps compliment the sweetness with a hit of fruit flavor rather than obscuring it (out of the two, I prefer strawberry). All in all, a delicious fruit matcha latte and bodes well for their milk tea drinks which I was originally there for. Hope to come by again sometime!

Phin Smith is my parents' backyard and every time I visit them, I contemplate visiting. Located on…read moreMain Street of Garden Grove, Phin Smith is the original Vietnamese coffee shop that first developed there and made a name for itself. Parking is difficult on weekends; you'll have to park in the lot next door and cross the brick road. The interior is lovely. There's a Vespa located out in front, too. Very Vietnamese culture driven! When I first came to Phin Smith, a friend had to teach me what to do. It can be overwhelming for first time patrons. You come inside and you get in line towards the left side. This gives you a bit of time to look at the menu, and decide what you want. Every year, they've extended their menu and added new teams. My fiancé noted they had a new tonic this time around. After barista will ask for the next guest once they are ready. You walk up to this long counter and give them your order. They will ask for what size and any other customizations if applicable. You then, stand towards the island to make room for other people. The barista will make your drink and call for you when it's done. You grab your drink, and walk forward to the back center, where there is a cashier. You pay for your drink and that's it! I always, always get their banana coffee. I try banana coffee from other cafes, but nothing quite beats Phin Smith's banana coffee. It's the banana coffee of my dreams and I crave it all the time. It's fantastic. I will absolutely be back to get a banana coffee fix again!

I placed my order online for pickup, and it was ready in about 10 minutes, which was super convenient. The drinks were a mixed experience. My Matcha Oreo Crème Brûlée was absolutely delicious, rich, creamy, and easily my favorite. My mom loved her Peach Green Tea too; it was refreshing and had just the right amount of sweetness. Unfortunately, my husband's Cookie Butter Coffee was a disappointment. We ordered it at full sweetness, but it wasn't sweet at all. Instead, it tasted overwhelmingly bitter, and we couldn't taste the cookie butter flavor whatsoever. After trying it myself, I had to agree. Overall, the quick service and most of the drinks were great, but the Cookie Butter Coffee definitely missed the mark. I'd come back for the matcha and fruit teas, but I'd probably skip the coffee next time.

I would suggest (and I will be doing this as well for my next sugar grove trip) to do 75% sugar for their matcha for a more leveled balance of matcha and sweetness!

I got it with oat milk (no extra charge). My partner got the Wintermelon Milk Tea and it was great for him! The baristas were fast, nice, and friendly! We got our drinks carefully prepared and I could tell they take great care of their customer's drink appearance which I appreciate!

There's also a cozy outdoor patio, and people huddle over the big screen watching whatever game is playing. The so-so - the drinks. It's okay. It doesn't really stand out compared to the other coffee or tea places around here. It's not something that would really stick out or come to mind if I'm craving coffee or tea. Unfortunately, they were so sold out of sandwiches by 1PM on a Wednesday afternoon. The not-so-great - the service. You can wait at the register and make eye contact all you want, but the staff walked back and forth and ignored me until I pressed the help button. I thought it was obvious I wanted to order, but I guess they need to be SURE sure that I needed assistance.
