Baristas were extremely nice, and while the drinks were quite good, I've had better from around the country. It could have easily been my choice but I was excited about having a theme to a jazz artist (John Coltrane). Always worth a try if you've never been!

That's where this cold, super dope espresso on ice-pictured, came into play. The CSA (CUSTOMER SERVICE ALL STAR) of this experience was none other than Ms. "personality plus", Brooke-pictured. In the epitome of a front-facing roll where everyone seemingly has more important things to do than you and I, Brooke knocked em out one by one and two by two-all with a smile. Brooke your a credit to the Blue Bottle brand!

Wandering through West LA, discovered Coffee Commissary off of Culver Blvd by surprise. This corner…read morecoffee shop had everything I needed from breakfast to lunch bites along with pastries. My latte heart was happy to see this spot use Clover Milk. The layout is nice and spacious with indoor and patio seating and lots of nooks to soak in the vibes or remotely work. The service is awesome and friendly! Recommended bites are their breakfast burrito with the Habanero Salsa on the side, Breakfast Sandwich and Truffle Parmesan Tots with a Vanilla Latte or a Lemonade to cool you down.

Good coffee but wish they were stocked with fresher beans…read more I stopped in on a Saturday morning and got a free hot drip coffee with purchase of beans. Most beans had been roasted a month ago and the "newest" was about 2.5 weeks old. Selection was limited with about 4 varieties mostly natural (not washed). Shop is small but has decent seating and I can usually find neighborhood street parking.

There is no table waiting, you walk up to the cashier and place your order. You get a number and grab a seat. We ordered sandwiches and bags of chips. The sandwiches are pre-made in a deli area and they take it out add in your ingredients and through it in the grill for a panini. After 5pm, they do have a sit down area behind the deli where you can eat the late night menu and listen to music. We came earlier in the day, so it was just deli sandwiches, chips and a glass of mimosa. If I were out shopping, I would stop by and grab a sandwich but Id prefer to see what the live music and late night menu experience is about. I will go back one day!

Stopped by for lunch the other day and was pleased with the experience…read more Joliet is located across the street from Urban Plates within the food court with Jenni's ice cream. I thought it was a full sit-down restaurant, but it's more like a cafe you can walk up and order from, and either sit at their bar area or outside at any of the tables. Regardless, service was pleasant enough. I got a chicken Caesar wrap and a Sakura matcha, and both were delicious. I loved the floral flavor of the Sakura matcha, and the wrap was fresh and flavorful. This is a great spot to grab a quick bite and coffee from, and I would totally come back if I'm in the area.

I understand being friendly and making people feel welcome, and a quick chat is totally fine. But sometimes the conversations go on for several minutes -- even getting deep into topics like favorite songs -- while people are waiting. Ordering coffee these days is already detailed enough. Most customers just want good coffee and efficient service. A coffee shop isn't a psychologist's office. I don't know if this message should be directed at the workers who are always trying to be nice or the customers who don't seem to care about the people waiting around them.

There is plenty of seating but it's not super comfortable. The high tops have tall stools and the lower tables have some chairs and a long bench against the open wall. It doesn't feel like a place to linger. There's no bathroom for customers (they told us to go to Vons). The service is relatively slow, though the servers are friendly. There is a large free parking lot though, so that part's easy!

This place is really good, and could be so much better. My wife had their new matcha lattes and…read moresaid they are really good. I go there for their traditional tea bobas and I think it's one of the best. They legit brew their tea and, at least for me, their boba has been consistently perfect. Judge boba based on boba flavor (soaked in sweetness), firm/soft texture, freshness. Many places, even on Sawtelle get this wrong. Dan tea gets it right. I am bummed they let go of Phoenix Roasted Oolong tea. I think the owner is being an unnecessary perfectionist there by having to source the "right" one. My younger kid loves getting some of the appetizers. So where could they improve? 1. Presence/visibility 2. Managemeny / consistently They have added their logo/signage and created a vibe, finally! They left so much money on the table from waiting. Now they need to reign in their young employees who are unprofessional, not intentionally, just being young. Left unmanaged or untrained, there's no customer service, no ownership of the brand, and music often blasts way to loud. You can tell they are designed the experience for themselves rather that customers. Contrast that with Dan Modern, we're usually greeted and employees represent the brand better there. If Dan Tea wants to be sustainable, level up these 2 things and I hope more people will enjoy this quality boba place.

It's a great spot to stop by for a quick breakfast and coffee. Usually street parking is available on Culver or on the small street Berryman. Highly recommended!

This place is my new favorite breakfast / brunch place…read more I've been exploring their menu and my favorites have become the following which also aligns to their most popular dishes. Pastrami Sammie (sandwich) Softest, thick, & juicy slices of pastrami) Salame Rosa (sandwich) Delicious salami, arugula, & mozzarella cheese but today they swapped it on the menu with ricotta & I said, "Yes, please!" Ricotta & Jam Toast This speaks for itself. Just a yummy combination. Avocado Toast Comes thickly layered with chunky avocado bits and elegantly layered with the almost translucently sliced thin circled radishes that is decorated in a beautiful row on top...delish! There is plenty of seating inside and out. Inside has air conditioning. They also have a great selection on coffee, espresso, lattes, and more. You can't go wrong with whatever you decide to order. A must try!

I ordered an avocado toast with scrambled eggs on top and my friends got a fat pita and smoked salmon toast. I was pretty shocked by the sticker price of $3 for an extra egg but desperately wanted some protein. The avocado toast tasted great, the sourdough bread was thick and well toasted, the avocado was well seasoned giving the fat a nice balance of salt and acid. The one odd thing was all the drinks we ordered came in glass with large cracks in them. They looked a bit risky to drink out of since it looked like it could shatter if you're not careful. Luckily the servers were really nice and replaced them for us. We had a great time overall, but I just think it's a bit pricey for what you're getting.
