Vietnam Iced LVTM
Morgan W.

Love this spot for a coffee and hearty breakfast bowl. The light Vietnamese coffee iced is by far my favorite as the normal is a bit too sweet for me. The breakfast bowl has so much flavor and large portions. Great way to start the day around Irvine.

Great coffee. Access is easy if you go during off hours. Park by Target for an easy in and out. Good deep flavors, good selection and options. The oat milk latte with 1 pump of any flavor is great. The Blk Tiger is delicious and strong.

*Uji Matcha Latte (Almond Milk)

Blk Dot Coffee *March 15th, 2026 *1:30pm- Sunday *5 Stars Environment: *Large Parking Lot *Indoor and Outdoor Seating *Quick Service Food/Drink: *Uji Matcha Latte (Almond Milk) Came here after not being satisfied with a matcha latte from another location earlier, and this spot definitely redeemed it. I ordered the Uji matcha latte with almond milk and was honestly so impressed with the strong matcha flavor that I was hoping for. Service was super quick, which made the experience even better. I've had their coffee plenty of times before and always enjoyed it, so I was excited to finally try their matcha. Definitely a go-to if you're craving a solid, flavorful matcha latte!

One of the few places open late for a coffee out in OC. They took orders down to the last minute of closing. Black dot has a nice "work pitstop & quick pick-me-up" vibe. I got matcha & I've had the einspanner's theyre a MUST for a late night or hustling day. Loved it!

Pure coffee magic! Best iced coffee anywhere. Five stars. Great location. Walk around and enjoy the nice warm weather in SoCal. Highly recommended.

It's so unfair that we don't have a BLK Dot Coffee in the San Fernando Valley! I love this place for its vibe and delicious coffee. My absolute favorite is the Vietnamese iced coffee. This spot is a must for anyone visiting the area.

Yuzu Mango Matcha Latte

I had heard great things about the Yuzu Mango Matcha Latte and wanted to try it for myself. I was pleasantly surprised by the matcha flavor. While it is culinary grade rather than ceremonial, it still had a bright green color, and the taste came through nicely, with just a slight astringency. I appreciated that the matcha itself wasn't sweetened, allowing the yuzu mango to provide the sweetness. The addition of yuzu bits was a nice touch, and the bright, citrusy flavor made the latte feel refreshing and surprisingly well-paired with the matcha. I ordered online and the service was accurate to the time.

Today was my first time trying Blk Dot and we ended up parking at the Target in Irvine Spectrum and walked over. I haven't been to this side of Irvine Spectrum before but parking was surprisingly easy. This coffee shop was SO busy at 3pm on New Year's Day. The line moved quickly and service was friendly. Drinks came out very shortly after we ordered. I had the Vanilla Maplenut Latte; this drink is really subtle and didn't have a strong flavor at all. I was expecting it to be a little sweeter but I don't think it's something I'd order again. The VTMatcha is a matcha with vietnamese coffee on the bottom. This drink is very unique and has a bold flavor that surprisingly works well together. My boyfriend chose this drink based on how pretty it looked but ended up really enjoying it. There is some outdoor seating available to hang out and enjoy your coffee, but it is not necessarily a location I'd recommend staying at for extended periods of time, simply because of how long the line gets and how crowded it can be.

Putting this away 1 hour before close

I had a pretty frustrating experience here. They start closing the patio area at 9pm even though the store closes at 10pm, which feels way too early and unnecessary--especially when there were still three employees working. What really bothered me was being interrupted mid-order at the self-service kiosk so they could block it off with chairs. I was literally in the middle of placing my order and had to stop and move because they decided to shut things down early. If your posted hours say you're open until 10, customers should be able to use the space and order without being rushed or pushed out early. This just felt inconvenient and poorly handled.

Elizabeth M.

Service is quick. Store is nice and clean. There is a bit of outside seating, but since it's at spectrum you can sit pretty much anywhere. Coffee is strong especially the Vietnamese coffees. I've taken a pic of my regular order :)

Peggy C.

Came in with friends and ordered a few drinks. I love their Uija Matcha with almond milk. It's a great stop to stop by for a shopping break!

Iced Light VTMatcha
Elaine C.

Pretty gradient drink with viet coffee and matcha in one. Love the innovative options. I wasn't blown away by the taste, but this was a refreshing afternoon pick me up.

- BLK Dot - One of my favorite spots in OC for a strong drink. This particular location is at the Irvine Spectrum, near the Apple Store & Target. I've tried so many variations of their drinks & have never been disappointed! Love their matcha for an afternoon pick me up & the VTM is my morning go to. They also offer breakfast/pastries. Their prices are fair & customer service and quality of beverages 10/10!

Why can't you guys fill the cup all the way for viet coffee when we request ez ice? Is there a viet coffee traditional rule?

Ice is a part of the recipe, so when requesting less ice there is an inch of room at the top because they don't alter the recipe any further. However, if you wanted to top it off, you can ask for the additional pour which is a small fee of $1.30...… Read more

If you have your barrista visit tables who got coffee drinks and offer more you would generally get more paid business - they just have to take the portable CC machine.

After I finished my lunch, I didn't feel super stuffed at all. Seeing they have breakfast options, a few days later I brought my daughter over for early breakfast. We ordered the French Toast Forever and Espresso Mascarpone Waffle. They were delicious and beautifully presented. My daughter and I came around 7:30 am on a Sunday morning.

And I truly believe that they are not really made out to be a full-service restaurant as much as I like their dedication and drive. I had a reservation at 7 pm. I checked in at 6:45 pm. At 7:25 pm, they brought us in and did not have a table ready for us. They made a table then after a table left 15 minutes later, they rearranged us. I do not understand why you offer reservations if you will not actually honor the system. Around 8 pm, we asked if we could order as they had only brought water. Listen I understand. You're closing soon. You only had 1 server for the entire restaurant the weekend of Valentines. You have to go lean on the busiest last weekend ..? I don't actually understand. When all came to, they were not offering dessert because "they were saving it for Valentine's Day". No notification about when their kitchen closed and no asks if anybody wanted to order for to-go. On top of that, everyone did not have free parking and had to pay upon exit even with validation. You will do great as a ghost kitchen since the food was good and everyone enjoyed it. If you come back as a full service, I would seriously reconsider how you do business.

Most places wouldn't bother to accommodate outside of what's offered. Then I noticed they have a special of chorizo tacos with fixings that sounds great but I was not hungry enough or have the time. Dallas spoke to chef Sacramento discreetly and before you know it, there's one single chorizo taco on my table on the house. Who does that? They DO! Really, who is that sweet? Love them!
