    Banana Latte
    Mariah M.

    Stopped by for a quick coffee and decided to try the Banana Bread Latte. It was pretty good and the foam on top was the best part. Its a cute cafe but it was so cold I could not stay and work. Everyone was super friendly and its a great location though, next time Ill bring a sweater lol

    I'm not sure why they used candles but the smell didn't match what you would expect a coffee shop to smell like. I would have liked the natural smell of coffee but the smell of the coffee mixed with the scented candles were unpleasant. I tried the coconut strawberry matcha and it had a fruity refreshing flavor, it was a bit sweet. The other one I tried was the matcha cubed. It was creamy and I got it half sweet and honestly that was the perfect amount of sweetness. The matcha flavor is subtle but everything blended well together with the milk and matcha. Service was fine.

    First time trying Wah Coffee! We were in the area for an appointment and decided to stop by. Originally we were interested in matcha, but we went with espresso instead. This was recommended by the barista so that we could get a taste of the original drink. We were welcomed and greeted upon entering and the baristas were attentive and answered all of our questions! Ordered the Banana Bread Latte and the Brown Butter Salted Maple Latte with oat milk. The drinks were uniquely flavored and tasty. Only grievance is that the banana bread latte was a little messy. The drinks were iced. The straws were flimsy and difficult to get inside the cup. Aside from that, they were yummy! Overall, Wah is a nice coffee shop that I'd recommend. Definitely a coffee shop I'll be adding to my coffee collection list. Nice space to get work done, socialize, read, and enjoy some good coffee. Wonderful service!

    Cute, friendly service. Coffee was good but sadly tasted nothing like banana bread. Also tried the cheese danish which was ok.

    The barista was super friendly! The coffee was good! Probably wouldn't get the matcha again considering the price/taste/size ratio. This shop is located in a plaza so it can get a little busy.

    This spot is awesome and Andrew is amazing. Good energy. Delicious dranks.

    New location finally open! I stopped by to try Wah Coffee for the first time & I ordered : - Matcha Latte with matcha foam - Caramel latte with cold foam One thing to note is the matcha latte will be unsweetened if you don't add a flavor. Normally the sweet foam or cold foam adds a touch of sweetness. The normal cold foam they offer is sweet & super good (ordered with caramel latte) However the matcha foam (ordered with matcha latte) was not sweet. For their customer service I think it would be helpful to ask people if they would like to add a flavor or if they are ok with no sugar in the beverage they are purchasing. If I would've been asked this I would've switched my matcha to instead have regular cold foam. Instead of matcha foam. I was not disappointed because they have good quality matcha! So although no sugar was in my drink I enjoyed it as I prefer less sugary drinks. The quality of matcha should still be enjoyable without sugar & they offer that here! I would be interested in buying their matcha powder and would come back. Interior is spacious, nice and cozy to work for a bit or to hang out.

    Went to the new Wah Coffee in Montrose to study. This place used to be a Starbucks. I got the matcha^3 which has a matcha cold foam. This place was really packed so I had to sit at the bar. It is really cold inside so I would recommend bringing a jacket or sweater. Their matcha is not as strong as other places but the sweetness still makes it good. It's pretty pricey here tho.

    The lavender matcha was so good! I have to go back and let the mans try their coffee cause I'm not a coffee person but the flavors all sounded nice! Friendly staff with spacious tables that have outlets so great for her studying/working. I think they're flavor was so good and you can see them whisking it behind the bar.

    Salted caramel latte with oatmilk 10/10!

    I stopped in after seeing a content creator rave about this place, and it definitely lived up to the hype! I ordered the Salted Caramel Latte with oatmilk, and my friend got the Banana Bread Latte with oatmilk. The Salted Caramel Latte was an easy 10/10. It was perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, but just sweet enough. The caramel flavor was rich, decadent, and the foam was an incredibly smooth addition. I would absolutely order it again. As for the Banana Bread Latte, the coffee flavor was a little stronger than I preferred, so I'd give it a 7/10. That said, my friend really enjoyed it, so if you like a bolder coffee flavor, you'll probably love it. The ambiance was warm, modern, and inviting, with enough seating if you're looking for a place to study, work, or just relax. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and patient, I didn't feel rushed while deciding what to order, which I really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu!

    Great place to get Matcha in Houston! Lovely place to also dine in, work, study, etc. Super friendly service, I've been to their Sugarland location and like that a little bit more but this place just opened up two weeks ago so well, you will see what it's like. I recommend and would come back.

    Shoutout to a new coffee shop in the neighborhood! This place replaced the Starbuck ls that was previously here and im so happy about that! They have a thriving location in Richmond and I am excited for the Montrose location to meet their full potential. Right now they are only open from 9-2 with an abbreviated menu. The decor and interior are super cute and warm with browns and tans. I ordered a vanilla Matcha latte. A little to heavy on the vanilla but still taste good. I'll be visiting again to try their actual coffee!

    Banana bread latte
    Edwin M.

    I came today for the soft opening. I ordered the banana bread latte from the specialty part of the menu and you can choose if you want it made with coffee or matcha, I chose coffee. The coffee is strong but once you mix it well the banana bread cream helps tone it down and gives it a nice creamy taste as well. The employees and owner are very friendly and ready to help. The area is very large and a great place to study or just relax with the music not being played to loud and lots of tables with outlets. There are also some couches just to lounge around.

When I stopped by on a weekday evening at 9pm it was packed. They had stations setup throughout the store to order different goods, which helped to alleviate the rush. Knafeh ($6) - They offered 2 types of knafeh, one with cheese and one with custard. I went with the one made with Nabulsi cheese and topped with shredded phyllo, and soaked in sugar syrup. It was warm, crispy and delicious! Karak tea ($5) - This milk tea drink was made with aromatic spices, primarily cardamom, cloves, ginger and cloves. I was happy to see they used whole milk instead of evaporated milk. The drink was incredibly rich and creamy and tasted great. Turkish delight ($18 / lb.) - This was extremely fresh, soft and chewy, made with cornstarch, sugar, nuts. Some of the varieties I tried had chocolate and/or fruits. The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

    The desserts here are fun, unique, and very different from what you find at most places. My only…read morecomplaint is the lack of labeling for many of the products. For example, with the Turkish delights and ice cream selections, only a few items are labeled. For most of them, you have to guess the flavor or ingredients. When I asked questions, there was a language barrier, and the staff member behind the counter was unable to clearly explain what the items were in English. This can be especially frustrating for customers with food allergies or dietary restrictions. In the U.S., I would expect all flavors and ingredients to be clearly labeled so customers can make informed choices. Even if staff members are not fluent in English, having accurate labels for flavors and ingredients would greatly improve the customer experience. The desserts themselves are excellent, but better product labeling would make the experience much more enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

Side note you'll need a code to use their restroom. I ordered the split cup of Strawberry Almond Cheesecake and Dulce de Horchata. I felt that the portion could've been slightly more generous than below the rim of the cup, but I suppose the price is reasonable. I guess it's hit or miss like at Marble Slab. The cheesecake flavor was okay not overpowering, which I would've preferred more than the almond and strawberry. I think I wasn't impressed with it because the server scooped more of the graham crust than ice cream. I'm pretty sure that's another reason I didn't particularly care for their cheesecake. The horchata was nice with hints of cinnamon and with the split cup made it taste even better.

You're paying for the K-Pop Demon Hunter pop-up aesthetic, the upbeat vibes, the fast service, the themed menu. The desserts? Solid. The Pinky Up Parfait hits. One scoop of cappuccino ice cream comes generous and tasty. Nothing disappoints. But nothing revolutionizes dessert either. This is good execution in service of a limited time experience, not destination-level pastry work. And that's fine. That's exactly what a pop-up should be. The real draw is that everything works together. Vibe, music, service, and desserts that don't let the side down. It feels fun, not gimmicky. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Bottom line. Pop-ups don't stick around. If the K-Pop theme is your thing and you want solid desserts in a fun environment, go now. If you're just looking for great desserts, permanent spots do it better.

We all liked the harry potter experience and some different anime type experiences as well that my children liked. The foods and drinks are on theme and although it's not cheap, it's definitely not as much as Disneyland. We came on the weekends, but during lunchtime, and I can see how they might be really busy during the dinner rush. Sometimes you might need a timed entry to go in, but thankfully, we have not since we've been going. I will say that it's quite small and gets cramped really fast. I just think the experience of it all is a really cool and I'm happy we have fun places like this around us in Houston.

Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.
